Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 279 Meticulous Plan

"What are they going to do?"

Cheng Shen, who was about to turn around and leave without disturbing each other, suddenly stopped.

He saw that the group of monsters had just passed by the place where he was hiding, and stopped after advancing a short distance.

Boom!
The burly storm warrior carried a huge ax and began to clean up the surrounding trees. The thick old tree that the two of them hugged couldn't withstand four or five rounds of felling, and soon collapsed rumblingly, and the vision blocked by the leaf canopy suddenly became clear.

In a blink of an eye.

Dozens of storm fighters worked together to clear an open area in the dense forest.

They disassembled the heavy armor and turned it into pieces of silver-white metal plates. At a height of about half a meter above the ground, they were laid out neatly with the help of remaining tree stumps, forming a platform with a diameter of about 30 meters.

Followed by.

The dozens of storm warriors who took off their armor and exposed their metal skeletons, like mechanical skeletons, pulled out a thick spine from their bodies.

Cheng Shen immediately discovered that the structure of the extracted spine was different from theirs. The body of the Stormtrooper was made of metal, but the round and thick spine was made of spar with runes engraved on the surface.

Each stormtrooper carries a slightly different shape of the hedron cylinder.

They put 32 columns together to form a one-meter-high crystal tower. The rune structure carved on the tower became complete, and immediately sparked bright thunder, crackling and spreading around.

crackle! !
In an instant, the entire silver-white metal platform was covered with lightning.

Dense thunder surged toward the center, interweaving into a twisted grid.

Energy began to condense and accumulate at the top of the crystal tower.

wow...

The purpose of those special storm fighters seems to be to build this device.

The moment the crystal tower was formed, it was scattered into metal components.

Around the platform, the group of thunder beasts gathered like a pack of wolves, and the floating lightning wizards are all swallowing the energy emitted by the crystal tower.

They seem to be able to restore their status through this crystal tower.

It can also feed back.

Speed ​​up the energy accumulation speed of the crystal tower.

"This location is more than 2000 meters away from the nearest temple stronghold. Is this also an ultra-long-range war weapon?"

Cheng Shen observed quietly.

He didn't know what would happen to this crystal tower once the energy accumulated to the limit, but from his standpoint.

Certainly not to let the plans of these monsters go as they wish.

"I haven't seen it before, let's steal it first."

His eyes were burning.

The line of sight blessed with innate ability instantly analyzed the device carefully from the inside to the outside.However, just as he understood the connotation of those runes, he also mastered the effects of these runes.

"It's actually a charging pile..."

Cheng Shen was slightly taken aback.

Judging from the effect of the rune combination alone, this crystal tower does not have the ability to attack, basically ruling out the possibility of being used as a weapon of war.

its effect,

It is to provide energy replenishment of lightning attributes to the targets in the surrounding area.

But its recovery strength is very exaggerated.

Cheng Shen had seen the Thunderstorm Chariot before, and knew that it would consume at least 500 units of mana to activate the Thunderstorm Chariot once.

Converted into energy spar.

Low-level crystals such as primary energy crystals cost 50 yuan!

50 yuan energy spar can open five ten-level dungeon maps.

And this is just the minimum consumption for one shot!In order to exert the maximum attack effect of the thunderstorm chariot, the energy consumption has to be doubled!
But in the crystal tower right in front of him, enough energy has been accumulated for the Thunderstorm Chariot to attack three times with its strongest power.

And that's not far from its energy storage limit.

Cheng Shen understood that this crystal tower was obviously the "spring" in the technology tree of Storm Castle.

It can provide a huge amount of energy supply for the combat units under its command!
No wonder.

It needs to be built away from the battlefield.

Once this kind of thing is discovered by the enemy, it must be destroyed at all costs.

Even he is no exception.

Fighting against an enemy who controls a supply station is equivalent to the enemy attacking his temple stronghold. If his only home field advantage is equalized by the opponent, he will no longer be able to take advantage of the frontal battlefield.

In terms of the individual strength and quantity of the combat troops, he would be crushed by the opponent. If he hadn't relied on the defensive advantages of the territory, his iron-blooded guards would have been wiped out in a round of head-on confrontation.

"There are still too few combat units..."

Cheng Shen thought secretly.

Although he can solve most of the combat incidents with his own force alone, he is a lord after all, and every trivial matter needs to be done by himself, so the price will drop...

Introspect secretly.

Cheng Shen was not prepared to let the crystal tower be built smoothly.

At the same time, he also realized that there must not be only one similar crystal tower storm castle built.

Fortunately, he suddenly wanted to launch a raid this time on a whim.

This situation was discovered.

Otherwise, this place is so far away from the temple stronghold, completely out of the coverage of the sentry tower, and covered by a dense forest. Once a fight is fought, it will not be found at all, and the battle will quickly fall into a passive position.

That's when it's going to be a big problem.

Between thoughts.

Cheng Shen directly destroyed the crystal tower without revealing his figure.

As a formation master, he has a hundred ways to deal with this pure magic technology product, which can interfere with its normal operation without anyone noticing.

damage.

Just the lowest means.

Cheng Shen can completely change the function of this crystal tower with just a few changes.

He immediately released a ray of mental power, and under the almost impenetrable protection of the surrounding monsters, he quietly merged into the grid. The grid intertwined around the crystal tower was distorted for a moment, but it quickly returned to calm.

The monsters just looked up.

No changes were found.

Then continue to invest in the patrol state.

Soon, Cheng Shen stayed away from this area under the effect of triple concealment. He activated his innate ability, and his huge mental power instantly expanded to a radius of one kilometer, capturing those areas with strong energy accumulation.

one,
two seats,

three...

Cheng Shen found all five crystal towers scattered around the area.

What caught his attention was that several of the crystal towers had obviously been built for a long time.

The energy accumulated in it has reached a limit state.

A crystal tower with full energy storage can provide a thunderstorm chariot with the energy consumption of [-] times of continuous activation of the maximum power!
Extremely exaggerated!

And these crystal towers were obviously before Storm Castle launched its first attack on him yesterday, or even earlier.

has been built.

But none of them have played in the previous few fights.

The purpose is self-evident.

Cheng Shen couldn't help but rejoice.

He still underestimated the wisdom of the master of Storm Castle.

On his side, he was just secretly delighted that the opponent did not launch a general attack due to misguided command, and made successive mistakes, which gave him ample opportunities to develop.

But don't want to.

The other party was also using the same method to paralyze his nerves.

The preparations for the general attack were already made the moment the opponent started the war!
The locations of these five crystal towers are connected together, as if they have faintly surrounded his territory and stronghold.As if for the mysterious castle owner, he was already in his pocket!

fortunately.

He found out ahead of time.

Uneasy, Cheng Shen expanded the scope of his search and searched carefully for a while.

as predicted.

At a further distance he found five more crystal towers.

These crystal towers have been built for a longer time, and they are already full of energy and can be activated at any time.

Not to mention the increase of these crystal towers to the units of the Storm Castle.

Just around each crystal tower, hundreds of monster units gathered.

The total force reserves of the ten crystal towers,
Just close to seven thousand!
This is a number that even Cheng Shen would feel powerless in the frontal battlefield!

Previously, whether it was the small reconnaissance force he faced, or the large force he thought he was facing.

It's just an appetizer for a real war...

"His grandma's..."

Cheng Shen unconsciously licked his lips.

Temples, mines, castles, and deserted villages, calculated according to their locations, undoubtedly increase the difficulty of exploration in order, but the difficulty of this storm castle is increasing, and the difference is too outrageous...

"It's not all..."

Thoughts flashed in Cheng Shen's eyes.

On the difficulty of exploration alone.

In fact, these three points of influence should be said to have their own merits.

The difficulty of exploring the ruins of the temple mainly lies in the extraordinary person.

If he hadn't just mastered the formation to restrain his ability, once he was allowed to escape and get a chance to recover his strength, the trouble he would face would not be so small.

Not to mention the difficulty of exploring the mine.

If he didn't have some means, he wouldn't be able to get in at all, let alone face those terrifying pollution monsters and various taboo methods in the temple.

by comparison.

Although Storm Castle has accumulated a lot of heritage over the years, it is solid.

On the contrary, in the true sense, he is the most normal opponent at the same level as him...

The unexpected situation delayed Cheng Shen for some time.

But his plan remains the same.

at the moment.

It is basically confirmed that Storm Castle is ready for a general attack.

It's just that Cheng Shen doesn't know how long it will continue to be arranged safely. Judging from the position of the first crystal tower he discovered, Cheng Shen estimates that it may have to build a third ring of crystal towers. .

Just like an old dog.

But he didn't want to wait that long.

Seeing the layout of the Storm Castle, he realized that his so-called development was nothing more than a fly shaking a big tree.The musketeers he cultivated so hard are not as good as a crystal tower that took 10 minutes to build across the street.

Ridiculous.

Ending the battle directly with the momentum of thunder is his only chance of winning!
Whoosh!
The leaves brushed past his ears, and Cheng Shen arched his body and quickly shuttled among the dense tree crowns.

Along the way, he also saw many monsters on their way.

But they didn't do anything.

Until a castle surrounded by lightning appeared in front of his eyes.

Boom!

Click!

……

A dark cloud lower than the sky shrouded the gloomy castle. Inside the cloud, thunder surged and rolled, and thick lightning kept striking the ground, turning the area around the castle into scorched earth.

There are no walls around the castle.

But that natural minefield is the best protective barrier.

Cheng Shen stopped at the edge of the minefield, the trunks beside him were charred black, a strong smell of charcoal was emitted, the surface of the bark exuded high temperature, and weak electric arcs could be seen flashing from time to time in the cracks.

Cheng Shen could feel the numbness coming from his exposed skin.

If he didn't have the super negative resistance of a lord-level creature.

I am afraid.

At this moment, it has become a lightning rod.

"The lightning energy is extremely abundant..."

Cheng Shen stretched out his hand, and lightning intertwined in his palm. Compared with the mine, this place is two extremes.

The energy of other elements is basically expelled by the lightning element.

but.

This is also good news.

Lightning is a special element produced after the fusion of flame and light elements. It still retains some of the characteristics of light elements, and has a strong restraint effect on both dark and abyssal elements.

Since the thunder and lightning elements here are so abundant, at least Cheng Shen doesn't have to worry about the threat of pollution from these two elements hidden in the Storm Castle.

"There are not only violent elemental fluctuations in the minefield, but also a scattered spiritual energy...

Even the protective barrier is also an impenetrable detection net. "

Cheng Shen was thoughtful.

He retreated into the forest, searched for a moment, and suddenly jumped up and grabbed a gray-scaled viper camouflaged among the leaves.

Cheng Shen directly grabbed the poisonous snake by seven inches, and threw it forcefully into the dense minefield.

Click!

The moment it entered the minefield and before it landed, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky.

Immediately it was electrified and burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

Cheng Shen hid in the canopy of the tree and waited patiently. Within half a minute, he saw a group of soldiers wearing silver light armor and full protective helmets walking out of the main gate of the castle and rushing all the way to the place where the poisonous snake died.

One of the soldiers picked up the charred corpse of the poisonous snake, while the other seven quickly dispersed into the surrounding forest, inspecting every inch of it.

"I'm really vigilant..."

Cheng Shen thought secretly.

However, he had considered in advance that with the cautious personality of the castle owner, he would definitely not ignore this abnormality.This minefield can be called a forbidden zone for creatures, and the surrounding creatures will never appear in the minefield for no reason.

Especially at such a sensitive time...

Cheng Shen had no doubt that the eight soldiers in front of him were even decoys, and the owner of the huge spiritual energy that controlled the minefield had already focused on locking here.

After thinking for a while, he stepped back cautiously.

Boom!

That is, not long after he left, a dense thunderstorm suddenly landed in the forest in that area.

Watching it gradually spread in the forest, and then for some unknown reason, quickly extinguished into a piece of scorched woodland.

Cheng Shen's mouth twitched slightly.

He is always used to claiming to be cautious, this time, he seems to have met his opponent.

"Since the teachers come from the same sect, it depends on who is more skilled."

He thought with great interest.

Immediately.

Cheng Shen took out a set of silver and white heavy armor from his backpack.

Immediately afterwards, he took out another metal skeleton that had lost its energy core.

This is the complete body of a Stormtrooper.

Stormtroopers.

It is a higher-end alchemical creature than the petrified ancestors, but its forging technique is more inclined to mechanical puppetology than alchemical puppetry, and it is also different from the biological puppetology involved in flesh and blood golems.

Cheng Shen was still unable to reproduce the energy core of the Storm Warrior.

but.

He has another means of making it move.

Stab it!

He directly cut through the artery, and blood spurted out, but it fell on the metal skeleton regularly, and then he inserted energy spars into its joints with precise and fast movements, depicting the rune veins.

Construct the golem!

A rune structure more complicated than the four-ring rune immediately took shape.
