Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

All attacks issued by [Tower of Chaos] are chaos attribute damage that ignores armor.

However, the attack frequency is very average, and the damage value can only be considered average.

But as Zong Shen faced more and more powerful enemies.

The chaos attribute that ignores armor has a great advantage in combat.

Once a high-armored overlord-level monster like Eagle Sauce invades its territory, those second- and third-order elemental arrow towers cannot even break through its defenses.

If a [Tower of Chaos] is deployed in the territory, this problem will not exist.

Chaos damage can cause full damage, and the enemy's armor value will be in vain.

It is a very cost-effective defense tower.

The attack frequency of one shot every twenty seconds is similar to that of [Magic Turret]. You can reduce the impact of this flaw by increasing the number of [Towers of Chaos] and establish a matrix of [Towers of Chaos]!

Zong Shen had thought about this a long time ago, but he was short of money at the time.

In addition to the [Tower of Chaos], the Goblin clan’s [Magic Arrow Tower] series is also good.

The attack speed and range are much higher than the elemental arrow tower.

It's just that the damage isn't too sharp, but it's still manageable.

The biggest disadvantage is that each attack requires a certain amount of magic energy.

It can be exchanged for some defense supplements for the territory.

The high-level [Magic Arrow Tower] is no less than a fort with suppressive firepower.

Its rate of fire is faster than the Elemental Arrow Tower.

It only takes 1.5 seconds to launch an attack.

Moreover, the high-level [Magic Arrow Tower] also has the ability to automatically absorb magic energy, and can slowly absorb free magic energy in non-combat conditions.

Of course, when the battle is urgent, you still need to use additional magic crystals for quick charging.

The redemption price for four-section defense towers is uniformly 3,500 points, and there is no limit to redemption.

However, this exchange price is quite high.

Zong Shen even scored all the remaining points.

It can only be exchanged for less than 300 Tier 4 defense towers.

Even after redeeming them all, he still couldn't fulfill his dream of filling his territory with defensive arrow towers.

So he still had to choose carefully.

There are currently hundreds of various defensive arrow towers in the territory, including [Ancient Guardian].

The largest number is the [First-order Elemental Arrow Tower] that he has exchanged and brought back from the unclaimed territory.

These low-level defensive arrow towers still have a certain effect when facing ordinary monsters.

Its puncture damage of less than 70 points is basically equivalent to the normal attack of a third-level dragon ranger.

If the areas that the territory may face are divided into three levels: low, medium and high.

Then low-level defensive arrow towers can only be used to deal with those low-level enemies who are "large in number and full of control".

If you encounter those mid-to-high-level enemies with extremely high double resistance, you will become very passive.

Maybe even low-level defense towers can't break through.

Therefore, the defense matrix in the territory must be diversified.

After thinking about it briefly.

Zong Shen had the answer in his mind.

He used the four major areas of the territory as the standard.

Twenty-four Tier 4 [Towers of Chaos] were exchanged.

Divided into each area, six [Towers of Chaos] can be placed to cooperate with other defensive arrow towers to increase the damage capability against enemies with high dual resistance.

These twenty-four level four [Towers of Chaos] cost him 84,000 points!

I have to say, this thing is really expensive.

However, its attributes are still in line with the level of a Tier 4 defense tower.

[Level 4 Tower of Chaos Construction Drawings (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare level demon defense building]

[Requirements: Level 4 Tower of Chaos Construction Drawing × 1]

[Skill: Chaos Attack LV5 (within 5 seconds, you can launch fifty attacks to a designated area of ​​20 meters x 20 meters within the range. This attack is chaotic damage and does not distinguish between friend and foe. The cooling time is 4 hours)

Passive skill: Soul-sucking Blow LV5 (can cause an additional 15% chaos damage to enemies in soul state, ghost, etc.)

Soul Devouring (You can sacrifice souls with levels no higher than purple to the Tower of Chaos to repair the damage to the solid value. [Complete Soul (White)] can repair 80 points of solidity. [Complete Soul (Green)] can repair 400 points of solid value, [complete soul (blue)] can repair 2000 points of solid value)]

(Chaos attacks that ignore armor can pose a threat to all enemies. In fact, each type of arrow tower has its own characteristics, just like the special units of each force. If they can be properly combined and matched, they can be powerful. defense effect)

The above are the attributes of the fourth-level [Tower of Chaos].

[Tower of Chaos] can not only cause additional damage to the soul body, but can also quickly repair its own strength by sacrificing a complete soul below level 4.

It just so happened that Zong Shen had obtained a [Soul Extraction Bottle (Orange)] before.

At that time, the extraction value can be used to exchange for some low-level intact souls to urgently repair the fourth-level [Tower of Chaos].

Therefore, this skill is of particularly practical value to Zong Shen.

This is one of the reasons why he chose to redeem the [Tower of Chaos].

In fact, when he saw the [Tower of Chaos] for the first time, Zong Shen already understood the actual combat value of this thing.

It's just that the challenge points in his hand were very limited at that time.

Only a few tens of thousands of points.

Moreover, the enemies and situations that the territory needed to prepare for at that time were also different from those now.

Mainly used to deal with low-level enemies, especially large-scale crypt monsters.

In contrast, [Tower of Chaos] is more suitable for dealing with elite enemies with extremely high double resistance.

But now it's completely different.

Zong Shen has enough points in his hands, and it's time to match the [Tower of Chaos] in the territory's defense stage.

The attributes of [Tower of Chaos] are generally acceptable.

The chaos damage of one hundred, twenty or thirty points is still considerable. Although the power of a single target is not comparable to the [Giant Crossbow Tower], it has the characteristic of ignoring armor after all.

The attack frequency of one shot every 20 seconds is equivalent to the level 4 [giant turret] in the territory.

Calculated based on three attacks per minute.

This is equivalent to the damage amount reaching three to four hundred points per minute.

Arranging six groups of fourth-level [Towers of Chaos] in each area of ​​the territory is equivalent to adding more than 2,000 points of damage per minute to that area.

The most important thing is that the [Tower of Chaos] and the existing defensive arrow towers in other territories can make up for it.

It is used to target single enemies with high double resistance and make up for the shortcomings of the current defense matrix.

After redeeming the [Tower of Chaos], Zong Shen began to redeem the goblin clan's [Magic Arrow Tower].

[Magic Arrow Tower] is actually a magic defense tower.

It only has two words different from the [Elemental Arrow Tower] in its name, and its attack methods are also similar.

The [Magic Arrow Tower] fires arrows condensed by magic energy. The surface shines with lavender or silver-gray light. At night, it can also be used as a tracer bullet to guide the attack path.

As for its attributes, they remain at the same level as a Tier 4 defense tower.

[Level 4 Magic Arrow Tower Construction Drawing (Purple)]

[Quality: Rare grade goblin defense building]

[Requirements: Fourth-level magic arrow tower construction drawing × 1]

[A complete building can be built without spending materials, please choose an area to place it]

[Construction time: 20 minutes]

[Occupy area: 50 square meters]

[Height: 35 meters]

[Range: 2000 meters]

[Shoot height: 350 meters]

[Weapon: Generation IV large-scale magic arrow generating device]

[Magic damage: 153~156]

[Attack interval: 1.5 seconds]

Passive skill: load cooling (for every 5,000 consecutive attacks, 15 minutes of cooling is required)

Mana absorption (can automatically absorb 3 points of mana every minute)

Magic energy feedback (can convert the reserved magic energy in the magic arrow tower into magic value at a conversion ratio of 0.75 times and feedback it to mages or other mechanical units that need to consume magic energy)]

(Goblin technology is shocking. Their mana arrow towers are unique and famous for their high attack frequency and mana consumption.

Under continuous firing, it can launch up to 40 attacks per minute. If necessary, it can also activate the magic energy splash effect. It is suitable for dealing with large-scale low-level enemy groups and can effectively suppress firepower.)

Zong Shen thought about it in his mind.

If you compare [Tower of Chaos] to a sharp weapon against high-level enemies.

Then the fourth-level [Magic Arrow Tower] is an excellent defense tower for dealing with low- to mid-level cluster enemies.

Especially when paired with the [Magic Energy Turret], it is equivalent to the golden partner of "machine gun" + "cannon".

Its attack speed is twice that of [Elemental Arrow Tower].

Moreover, the damage attribute is magic damage, which can also complement the [Elemental Arrow Tower] with piercing damage.

And after reading the attributes of [Magic Arrow Tower], Zong Shen suddenly remembered the word "fire suppression" without realizing it.

Of course, there is still a big gap between the rate of fire of the [Magic Arrow Tower] and those light and heavy machine guns on Earth that can fire at hundreds or thousands of times per minute.

But there is still no denying its advantages.

Therefore, Zong Shen finally decided to exchange for 16 level four [Magic Arrow Towers]!

This part cost him 56,000 points.

He spent 140,000 points on [Magic Arrow Tower] and [Chaos Tower] alone.

Counting the intermediate fertile land, Zong Shen has spent more than 200,000 points.

Such a large amount of point consumption is something that other lords cannot imagine.

After redeeming [Magic Arrow Tower] and [Chaos Tower].

He returned his attention to the fourth-level defense towers he had redeemed.

Taking advantage of this exchange opportunity, we can expand and supplement the original defense matrix in the territory.

In this way, the territory's defense matrix can be comprehensively strengthened.

After thinking for a while, he exchanged all the fourth-level defense towers, namely: [Thunder Tower × 8], [Moon Blade Tower × 8], [Giant Crossbow Tower × 8], [Holy Light Tower × 4] , [Tower of the Dead × 4]

As for the most common [Elemental Arrow Tower], it is not necessary.

Among the defensive arrow towers in the territory, this thing has the largest number.

Especially the third to first level [Elemental Arrow Tower] is enough to form a relatively dense rain of arrows.

If you compare these [Elemental Arrow Towers] to bolt-action rifle shooting in Earth War.

Then [Giant Crossbow Tower] is a sniper rifle.

[Thunder Tower] is a shotgun, [Moonblade Tower] is a mortar, [Holy Light Tower] is a medic, and [Necromancer Tower] is a battlefield support that can summon cannon fodder.

The [Chaos Tower] is an RPG rocket launcher to deal with highly armored units, the [Magic Arrow Tower] is a light machine gun to suppress enemy attacks, and the [Giant Turret] is a support cannon fodder on the battlefield.

When the time comes, coupled with the "Colonial Griffin Bomber" and the Magic Chariot, the territory will really become a strong offensive and defensive state.

Each type of defensive arrow tower has different characteristics, and accordingly it must be responsible for different tasks and make the most appropriate arrangements.

After the redemption of this wave of high-level defensive arrow towers, another 112,000 points were spent.

“This is really a waste of points!”

Zong Shen couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

However, after redeeming these high-level defense towers, the defense capabilities of Zong Shen's territory will be improved to a higher level again, giving him a full sense of security.

Recently, many new buildings have been built in the territory, and the defense matrix in several directions has also been adjusted.

Including the [Thunderland Wonders (Incomplete)] and [Red Gold Barrier Pillars (gold)] in the territory have also been placed in the most suitable locations.

Speaking of which, that [Thunderland Wonder] is the real defensive weapon.

Unfortunately, it also consumes a lot of money and is not suitable for use easily.

And the [Red Gold Barrier Pillar] serves as a large defensive building for the territory.

During this period of time, the twelve thunder mage apprentices had already completed the charging.

I have to say that recruiting these "power banks" is somewhat useful.

After exchanging all the defensive arrow towers.

Zong Shen felt distressed and reluctant to close the redemption option of [Defense Blueprint].

It hurts because he spent a lot of points on it.

The reluctance to give up showed that Zong Shen still wanted to exchange for more defensive arrow towers.

In addition to being able to exchange for defense towers, [Defense Blueprints] also provide ground-finished city walls and common defensive buildings such as horse barriers, roadblocks, and horse tripping racks at various levels.

However, there are no special defensive buildings such as [Fortress] and [Combat Tower].

For Zong Shen, in addition to defensive towers, everything such as horse-blocking and roadblocks are just rotten fish and shrimps. It is better to dig a few trenches.

Besides, he also has the drawings of low-level horse-rejecting horses in his hand.

Even the city wall drawings have been accumulated to the fifth level city wall, but he has not chosen to build it.

The scale and development tone of the city has now been set.

Zong Shen decided that after a while, he would consider building a circular city wall with the lord's fortress as the central circle and the outer perimeter of the military circle within a radius of three kilometers.

However, this is still no small project.

According to the formula of the circumference of a circle, the total length of this city wall can be calculated to be nearly nineteen kilometers!

Even if it is built, it will consume a huge amount of resources.

The central area and the military area are the two identified core areas within the territory.

Therefore, it is entirely possible to build the city wall first and build the inner city.

As for the towers on the outskirts of the territory, Zong Shen couldn't even think about it now. The resources that would be consumed were absolutely astronomical.

Sometimes he even thinks about how much manpower and material resources it would take to build a huge tower in a giant city like Azshara!

Even with the help of magic and powerful miraculous warriors, this is a huge project.

It would take at least hundreds of years to build.

In fact, this is true for Aboriginal people.

Today's fortress-shaped giant cities and state cities with complete towers are all ancient cities with thousands of years of heritage and history.

Most of those open cities are emerging cities in the past thousand years.

The connotation represented is self-evident.

Compared with the aboriginal people, the lords actually spent much less effort to build the city wall.

But it also requires a lot of hard work and hard work.

Even the wealthy Zong Shen couldn't help but feel numb every time he thought about whether to build a city wall.

According to his previous idea, he would continue to build an open territory on the periphery of the territory.

Only deploy a defense matrix in the outer core area.

Mainly build defenses for places like production workshops, blacksmith shops, and tailor shops.

But in this way, the overall protection strength of the territory will be greatly reduced.

The most ideal solution is to have the entire territory surrounded by towers.

The tower can be garrisoned and defensive equipment can be placed.

Build [Battle Fortress] and [Combat Tower] inside and outside the territory.

Coupled with the epic defense building [Red Gold Barrier Pillar] that can defend a large area and the defense matrix of each node in the territory, a multi-dimensional all-round fortress city can be formed.

He wants to make his territory look like an iron barrel!

We will never let the hellfire invasion we saw happen!

Of course, this is just Zong Shen's most ideal territorial defense construction plan.

I don’t know how much effort is needed to implement this plan.

For this reason, he must work hard to obtain as many resources as possible.

After finalizing the exchange of [Defense Blueprint].

Zong Shen opened the last category in [Architectural Drawings].

【Special drawings】

He hopes that this category will bring him some surprises.

Opening the category list, Zong Shen was stunned.

The "special" in this option refers to those buildings that need to be built one by one.

Things like [Market] are typical special buildings.

He looked around and was not as surprised as he had imagined.

However, Zong Shen found workshops and workshops, as well as some auxiliary buildings like springs and totems!
