nBlossoms Country’s tragedy resulted from their own contestants. They had given up when they were unable to resist.

nThis was their only solution.

nHowever, the consequences were real.

nThe citizens of Blossoms Country were killed by the sharp claws, and their transportation and economic development were severely damaged.

nThey had suddenly declined from a highly developed country to a tier 2 country.

nThe bustling and colorful capital seemed to have experienced the apocalypse.

nCorpses littered the ground.

nPeople were plunged into misery and suffering.

nIt was the same for many other countries as well.

n

n

nThe despair of countless people erupted at this moment.

nNo one helped them.

nAfter all, each country had its own difficulties.

nNot everyone could receive hundred times the resources twice like Country M.

nJust as the world descended into unprecedented chaos, the Tower Defense world’s third invasion notification appeared.

nThere are five days before the next invasion. Please be well prepared!

nA white screen appeared in front of all the contestants.

nTime till the next round of invasion—5 days!

nFor this invasion, players can choose from three difficulty modes: Normal, Hard, and Hell.

nThe higher the difficulty of the challenge, the richer the resources obtained.

nPierce looked at the three choices in front of him and was lost in thoughts.

nOnly idiots might choose hard or hell mode.

nHowever, Pierce was not surprised seeing the longer time before the next invasion.

nAfter all, every time the monsters invaded, they would be much stronger. It was only natural that the participants would get more time to prepare. If the next invasion was set to be within twelve hours, almost everyone would be finished.

nAfter a night of intense defense, everyone was exhausted.

nNot to mention other countries, even Pierce would collapse if he had to continue immediately.

nThe system screen appeared before Pierce again.

nNext round of monsters: Normal Mode: One aberration, three thousand dark zombies.

nHard Mode: Two aberrations, six thousand dark zombies.

nHell Mode: One esper

nEsper?

nWas this a new creature?

nHe did not know what level it was, but it seemed like it would not be lower than level 5.

nPierce saw the notification and thought to himself.

nSuperpower?

nPierce looked up at the sky. It was nearly noon.

nHe summoned the spirited griffin and carried his backpack into the forest once again.

nCountless people were watching his departing figure.

nOther countries also realized that something was wrong.

nAfter Pierce went out previous times, he returned with a griffin and upgrades to the arrow towers.

nThey were realizing that the real secret of the Tower Defense was hidden in this world.

nTurn right 500 meters ahead. You will find a path filled with fresh flowers. There seems to be something there.

nAfter ten minutes, Pierce arrived at the waterfall where he had obtained the treasure chest.

nAccording to the hint, he took a machete he bought from the store and walked through the dense forest.

nAfter walking for a while, the sun suddenly shone brightly. The sky was clear and the wind was pleasant.

nIt was a path filled with fresh and exotic flowers.

nThis scene was fully displayed in the global live-stream.

n“What kind of godly place is this? Isn’t it too beautiful? I didn’t expect a world filled with monsters to have such a place!”

n“This place is so beautiful!”

n“Who would have thought that a place with all kinds of terrifying creatures would have such scenery?”

n“This will be my wedding venue with Pierce!”

n“^ are you dreaming?”

n“Hurry, hurry! Go, Boss Pierce!”

n…

nCarrying his backpack and his griffin, Pierce stepped onto the trail.

nHe stopped and stared ahead.

nPlease follow this trail. You will find a building there.

nBuilding?

nPierce scratched his head in confusion. Could there be people living in a world like this?

nIn short, this other world that had existed for thousands of years had never been explored.

nThis world was like an unexplored secret treasure-trove.

nNo one knew what it was hiding.

nHowever, the invading monsters were enough to stop them from leaving the city.

nThe fear of such monsters made it impossible for them to explore this world.

nOnly Pierce dared to go out because of the hint system.

nPierce followed the trail.

nAfter walking for about half an hour, he finally found a dilapidated stone building.

nGriffin was tired of flying, too. It leaned over Pierce’s head, shielding him from the sun.

n“What’s that, a building?”

n“Unbelievable. I didn’t expect there to be a building here.”

n“F*ck, I’m stunned. How many things are there in this world?”

n“Where do you think those monsters went?”

n“I also want to ask, why didn’t Boss Pierce meet any monsters outside?”

n“Some people of the neighboring Blossoms Country wanted to go out and look for things like Big Boss Pierce. As soon as they went out, they encountered a group of level one monsters.”

nPierce stared at the building in front of him, amazed.

nIt seemed like there were many unknown things waiting for them to explore in this world.

nComing back to his senses, Pierce walked into the building.

nAnd on Planet Blue.

nIn a conference room in Country M.

nThe leader watched Pierce walk into the building, shock in his eyes.

nHe quickly called his assistant over.

n“Go and get me that file in my office!”

n“Yes!”

nUnder everyone’s puzzled gaze, the leader watched in silence as Pierce explored the building.

nAfter a while, the assistant returned with the file.

n

n

nHe quickly handed the file to the silent leader.

nAfter receiving the file, the leader couldn’t wait any longer. He hurriedly opened it and projected the information onto the screen.

nNot long after, he exclaimed.

n“Same, exactly the same!”

n“What is it, Chief?”

nThe others quickly stood up and asked.

n“I know this building that contestant Pierce walked into!”

n“Wh… What? You recognize it!”

nBefore everyone could react, the leader spoke again and everyone was stunned.

n“This building…”

n
