The Era of Tower Defense: I Have Super Enhancement

Chapter 4: Guards

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Killing two Skeleton Soldiers in a row boosted Thomas’ confidence. He strode towards the last Skeleton Soldier, ready to kill it in one fell swoop.

When the last Skeleton Soldier saw Thomas rushing over, it did not fight with Thomas. Instead, it raised the round shield in its hand and circled around Thomas, not fighting with Thomas.

Thomas hacked left and right, but he failed to kill the Skeleton Soldier several times. He could not help but feel a little anxious.

This Skeleton Soldier was too cunning. It actually did not fight with Thomas head-on. If this continued, the situation would be greatly disadvantageous to him.

How should he kill the other party?

Thomas was secretly anxious.

Suddenly, Thomas saw that the edge of the Skeleton Soldier’s foot was the edge of the Blood Spike. As long as it took half a step back, he would be able to step into the Blood Spike.

Seeing this, Thomas had an idea.

He raised the Holy Light Longsword high and swept it towards the Skeleton Soldier’s waist.

Seeing this, the Skeleton Soldier indeed retreated, wanting to dodge Thomas’ sword.

With this retreat, one of its feet stepped into the attack range of the Blood Spike.

“Blood Spike, activate!” Thomas immediately ordered.

Swoosh!

Dozens of Blood Spikes pierced out from the ground, shattering the soles of the Skeleton Soldier’s feet.

The Skeleton Soldier lost its balance and fell to the ground.

“Success!”

Thomas was overjoyed and immediately rushed forward, decapitating the Skeleton Soldier with one sword strike.

After killing the Skeleton Soldier, Thomas turned back to look at the escaping Skeleton Soldier, only to find that it had already charged into the dark fog.

Thomas hesitated for a moment, but he still did not chase after it.

After all, the dark creatures ruled in the fog, and god knew what was inside.

If he rashly chased after it and was ambushed by the dark creatures, it would not be good.

Thomas sighed and began to clean up the battlefield.

After killing 11 Skeleton Soldiers and a Skeleton Knight, he obtained a total of six white level 1 magic cores and a green level 2 magic core.

After collecting these magic cores, Thomas began to think about what he should do next.

Now, there were two paths in front of him. One was to leave immediately, and the other was to continue staying here and establish a camp.

The advantage of leaving here was obvious. He could avoid Hall’s counterattack.

However, the disadvantage was also obvious.

He had to take the risk to enter the black fog region.

If he stayed here, he would have to face Hall.

The advantage was that he could use the resources available here.

Thomas hesitated for a moment and ultimately decided to stay here to build a camp.

They were thrown into the wilderness to fight against the dark creatures. Therefore, it was the same to build a camp there. This was because the wilderness was full of dark creatures and there was no safe place.

Instead of venturing into the black fog, it was better to stay and set up camp to fight against Hall. This way, he could make use of the resources in the village.

Moreover, even if he failed to stay here, he could find an opportunity to enter the dark fog. The effect would be similar to now.

After making up his mind, Thomas began to set up his own camp.

To set up a camp, the simplest and most basic building was the Arrow Tower.

The Arrow Tower could carry out long-range attacks and eliminate enemies from afar. It was the most basic and most practical building in all the camps.

However, building an Arrow Tower required six level 1 white magic cores. Thomas had the special effect of a Super Architect. He only needed three level 1 magic cores to build it.

“Build an Arrow Tower first!”

Thomas placed the three level 1 magic cores on the ground.

A magic array lit up, and an Arrow Tower rose from the ground.

This Arrow Tower was made of solid wood, and it was more than four meters tall. An archer dressed in cloth clothes held a longbow and looked around vigilantly.

This was a human building. A level 1 Arrow Tower had an attack range of 100 meters, and two to four arrows could kill a Skeleton Soldier.

[Level 1 Arrow Tower evolved into Level 2 Arrow Tower.]

A white light enveloped the level 1 Arrow Tower. In the blink of an eye, the Arrow Tower changed its appearance.

The originally four-meter-tall wooden tower became a six-meter-tall brick tower.

The original one archer became two.

Moreover, these archers were all wearing breastplates.

The longbows in their hands had also changed from ordinary bows to Oxhorn bows. Their shooting range had increased from 100 meters to 150 meters.

Their strength had greatly increased.

They were even more powerful than the two ordinary level 1 Arrow Towers.

“Not bad!”

Seeing the Arrow Tower that had been enhanced, Thomas was excited.

He had originally wanted to build two Arrow Towers. Now that he had one Arrow Tower, and it was the same as two Arrow Towers. The magic cores that he had saved could be used to do other things.

“What should I do?”

Thomas pondered for a moment, and from his inherited memory, he found a building that was not very well known — the Close Combat Barracks.

The Close Combat Barracks was a level 1 building, and it required six magic cores to be created.

A Close Combat Barracks could produce a small team of soldiers. These soldiers could patrol a certain area and counterattack the intruders.

However, the equipment and number of soldiers were upgraded according to the level of the Close Combat Barracks.

A level 1 Close Combat Barracks could only produce four ordinary militia armed with spears.

Four soldiers were too few and could only fight in close combat.

The worst thing was that the strength of these militias was very worrying. They needed two or three militia to fight against a level 1 dark creature.

Compared to the Arrow Tower, the cost-benefit ratio was really too low.

In order to increase the strength of the militiamen, they had to increase the level of the Close Combat Barracks, and this required a large number of magic cores.

Therefore, after a few Architects experimented, this building was abandoned.

However, this building was suitable for Thomas.

He had a Super Enhancement System, so he could completely increase the level of the Close Combat Barracks without spending magic cores.

“Build a Close Combat Barracks!”

Thomas placed three magic cores behind the Arrow Tower.

The magic array flickered, and a building that looked like a small wooden house rose up from the ground.

Four militiamen wearing coarse linen clothes and holding rough spears appeared in front of Thomas.

The wooden hut instantly turned into a small brick hut. The four dull-witted militiamen also turned into four elite soldiers.

These soldiers were wearing breastplates, bronze swords hung at their waists, and they held bronze shields and spears in their hands. If they were to put on red cloaks, they would be almost like the Spartan warriors in the movies.

A soldier strode in front of Thomas and knocked the shield three times with the spear in his hand. “Respected Sir Thomas, the guards are reporting to you!”
