Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 15 Who is the protagonist?
"What level are you now?"

Cheng Shen asked.

"Level three!"

Zhang Yao paused, did not hide anything, and continued: "Actually, the biggest reward I got this time should be a job change letter."

"Have you used it, what has changed?"

Cheng Shen asked curiously.

"Yes, leg brother, this profession is called Dark Knight, it comes with a skill tree, and it has been upgraded by five points! It also comes with a talent that transforms blood volume into defense power. I feel like I can fight ten of them now!"

Zhang Yao proudly showed off.

"Five qualifications?!"

Cheng Shen was shocked.

He only has two points of aptitude growth every time he goes up a level, and he already feels that the increase is quite obvious.

And he noticed that Zhang Yao's words had increased by five points, not to five points.

In other words, his current aptitude growth is seven points!
Every level up increases nine attributes!
Simply perverted!
In addition to being shocked, Cheng Shen's thoughts were running fast.

"Yes, this confirms my thoughts even more.

Your development path is completely different from ours. The system should have made some special arrangements for you or on you.

In other words, you are the protagonist of this game..."

"What, what?! Don't be kidding, brother leg...I'd rather not be the protagonist! You don't know how scary this castle is. When I returned to the room just now, I saw the monster on the first floor. You know it is... ..."

Zhang Yao stopped suddenly, and asked mysteriously.

"Brother Legs, do you believe that there are ghosts in this world? I mean something completely different from monsters..."

"Believe!"

Cheng Shen said firmly.

His grandma's.

He was almost killed by that weird thing just now!

"I suspect that monster on the first floor is a ghost!"

Zhang Yao immediately said.

"..."

Cheng Shen twitched the corner of his mouth, and the empathetic experience immediately made him understand how Zhang Yao's words about not wanting to be the protagonist came from the bottom of his heart...

But then again.

After encountering that ghost several times, Zhang Yao is still alive. On the one hand, he has to feel that he is blessed and lucky.

on the other hand.

Perhaps it was also because there was some kind of protective mechanism in the castle that he hadn't noticed.

"Is there something that burns and glows in the castle?"

Cheng Shen asked suddenly.

"Yes, there are a lot of candles, what's wrong, Brother Leg?"

Zhang Yao recalled.

Cheng Shen confirmed: "Think about it carefully, every time you meet that ghost and escape smoothly, do you have this kind of candle by your side?"

"It seems... that's it!"

"That's right."

Cheng Shen said to Zhang Yao: "I also encountered an unexplainable weirdness just now, but when I lit the bonfire, it quickly receded as if it had encountered a nemesis. I think these things should be afraid of fire!"

"Or, you can also understand that the firelight is a manifestation of system power."

Cheng Shen thought about it.

"Whether it is a bonfire or a candle, its essence is the power of the system to protect us from surviving in this world."

"I have experienced some things, and I have roughly guessed the purpose of the system, but I am still not sure yet."

"But I can't tell you."

"Because you are probably much closer to the truth than we are. If I guess wrong, it will only mislead your thinking."

Cheng Shen paused for a moment.

Continued: "At least one thing is certain, as long as you are within the range covered by the fire, there is a high probability that the ghost will not harm you."

"This should be one of the rules of survival in the castle."

he said firmly.

"Awesome! Brother Legs!"

In fact, Zhang Yao didn't understand what Cheng Shen was talking about. If he took his words apart word by word, he could understand each word, but why didn't he understand what these words mean when they were combined together?
The difference in IQ made him feel like Cheng Shen was rolling over him wantonly like a dump truck weighing more than ten tons.

Only the last sentence he understood.

Candles = Safety!
This message is equivalent to giving him a life-saving talisman!

Zhang Yao believed in Cheng Shen's words now unconditionally.

"It's getting dark. You'd better collect as many candles as possible before it gets dark. This is the basis of your survival. I don't know whether the fire light produced by other things can protect you. The rules may be different."

Cheng Shen analyzed.

For all things that will produce uncertain results, his philosophy is to do nothing if he can do it.

Because in this world any slight mistake can lead to death.

The price is too high.

He can't afford to try.

"In addition, even if you are sure that the firelight can protect you, you still have to take the necessary protective measures. The stability of the candle is too poor. If possible, you'd better get a lampshade to avoid being accidentally knocked out."

"Got it, Brother Leg!"

Zhang Yao kept Cheng Shen's advice in mind.

"On top of that, you still have to venture out and explore the rooms in the castle, and I suspect that there are big secrets in that castle.

of course.

The choice in this matter is yours.

I still say the same thing, all I can do is try my best to help you analyze and avoid risks, but what the specific situation is, you must learn to make your own judgments, and I will be wrong, and it is impossible to help you all the time. "

Cheng Shen said seriously.

"I... I understand, brother leg, thank you!"

Zhang Yao replied solemnly.

What Cheng Shen wanted was not a younger brother who would follow his lead.

In this world, there is no point in recruiting subordinates, and it is impossible for others to contribute life-saving resources to you.

Therefore,
It is very important to cultivate Zhang Yao's independent judgment ability.

His career, his experience, all represent that he has great potential for growth.

And Cheng Shen had another guess buried in his heart.

That is, since the system has chosen Zhang Yao as the "protagonist", it means that there must be something extraordinary about him.

That is his most precious thing.

But that kind of thing can only be discovered by himself, and Cheng Shen is not even sure whether it is good or bad for him to help Zhang Yao.

Without the tempering between life and death, can he still grow up?
Immediately, Cheng Shen shook his head.

Give up the idea.

In that terrifying castle, he will only experience more dangers than he thought, and there will be no lack of training at all.

Besides, who can guarantee that
Isn't his existence one of the arrangements made by the system?
"It's not a good thing for chess pieces to know too much..."

Cheng Shen murmured in his heart.

He finally said: "If you decide to explore the castle, I can give you a piece of advice.

Try to reach the dangerous presence in the kitchen on the first floor.

If I guessed right at the beginning, that existence is more powerful than the ghost wandering around on the first floor.

Then you should be dead the first time you break into the kitchen.

It didn't kill you, which means it thinks you still have something to use.

There are two kinds of speculation I make.

One, it intends to raise you as food, not not to kill you, but there are enough ingredients for now, and it is not time to kill you.

Two, it may be asking you to do something for it. "
