nJust the twenty elemental arrow towers and thirty elemental peashooters were enough to hold the Esper back.
n
nNot to mention that Pierce now had a griffin that had evolved to level 4.
n
nHe patted the griffin’s head, hinting it to make a detour.
n
nGriffin understood Pierce’s intention.
n
nIt flew high into the air, and avoided the sight of the Esper.
n
nRight now, the Esper’s vision was being disrupted by the exploding fire arrows and water arrows.
n
nTherefore, it did not see the griffin circling around from the sky.
n
nBut even if it saw, what could it do?
n
nPierce had already set the arrow towers’ target to the two feelers on its head.
n
n
n
nAnd now the griffin was going behind it.
n
nEverything was under Pierce’s control.
n
nAt this moment, the griffin in the sky followed Pierce’s instructions and activated its skill.
n
nWaterspout!
n
nA small whirlpool came from the sky and attacked the Esper.
n
nMore and more water elements condensed in the air from the waterspout. In the end, it brought about a storm.
n
nThe Esper also realized that something was wrong.
n
nIt quickly retreated.
n
nBut!
n
nHow could it be that easy to escape!?
n
nThe completed waterspout was already behind it.
n
nAs the rain fell, the Esper was sucked in.
n
n“Die!!”
n
nA strange, shrill voice that was almost human came from the waterspout.
n
nImmediately after, one after the other blade energy sliced through the swirling water walls and shot in all directions.
n
nThe tall trees were cut into two, and the hard ground was also cut open.
n
nEven the city walls were covered with scars.
n
nPierce stood on the wall, not dodging.
n
nWith the golden hint, there was no need for him to dodge them one by one.
n
nAs the griffin was too young, it could not sustain this skill for too long.
n
nFinally, the waterspout dissipated.
n
nA figure covered in wounds fell to the ground.
n
nThe recovery ability of a level 5 creature was very astonishing. In just a blink of an eye, the wounds on its body began to wriggle and recover.
n
nHowever—
n
nThe wounds on its back had not healed.
n
nBlood flowed down its back and onto the ground.
n
nWhen the waterspout dissipated, Pierce saw a huge blood mist in the rain.
n
n“Roar… roar…”
n
nIt spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
n
nThe wounds on its back made it ache. Its red compound eyes narrowed.
n
nCreak! Creak!
n
nThere was a soft sound.
n
nPierce controlled a fire elemental arrow tower and aimed at the Esper’s back.
n
nThe other arrow towers were the same. Except that they were targeting the feelers.
n
nWhoosh—
n
nBANG!
n
nFire elemental arrows had the characteristic of explosion.
n
nSound of bones shattering soon followed.
n
nDea… dead??
n
nThat was it?
n
nThe audience was stunned.
n
nEveryone was in a daze.
n
nA beast that looked so powerful was killed just like that?
n
nIs this a joke!?
n
nThe other countries had yet to finish their battle.
n
nAll the players, except Pierce, were still fighting against the monsters.
n
nAt this moment, the participants heard a notification from the Tower Defense world.
n
nMany people were stunned.
n
nHell mode has been successfully defended.
n
nThe third round’s Tower Defense Ranking is:
n
nFirst place: Country M’s Pierce!
n
nTower Defense Index: 100 , Level S
n
nWhat!
n
nThis kid again!?
n
nAdditionally, it was still an S ranking!
n
nPlease don’t be ridiculous.
n
nThat b*stard must have cheated!
n
nI beg you to quickly ban him!
n
n“F*ck!”
n
nOne participant was so angry that he threw his weapon to the ground while there were still several zombies beside him.
n
nWhy? Why?…
n
nAnd on Planet Blue.
n
nThe leaders of Country M were instructing and gathering manpower as they waited for new resources to appear.
n
nThey were sure. Pierce was definitely a Chosen One.
n
nFirst place, three times in a row.
n
nAt this moment, Country M was making preparations, ignoring the envious people.
n
nThe leaders from the other countries also sent their congratulations.
n
nIt seemed like they were all trying their best to curry favor with Country M.
n
nWhat a joke. If there were another hundred times more resources, Country M would definitely be the strongest country in the world.
n
nThey could not be blamed for bootlicking.
n
nAll the countries had paid a heavy price for resisting this time’s invasion.
n
nMany countries had already lost their cities, and blood flowed like rivers.
n
nThere was no such thing as ‘easy’ in the Tower Defense world.
n
nPerhaps it was indeed easier for Pierce.
n
nThey’d replayed Pierce’s broadcasts, and understood some things.
n
nThe first thing was that the higher the level of a creature, the higher its intelligence. For example, the roar of the Esper today.
n
nThe second thing was that Pierce definitely had a secret that no one knew about. It was these secrets that doubled the Tower Defense Survival index.
n
nIn the past Tower Defenses, the highest defense was a thousand level three dark zombies.
n
nBut now, the level three dark zombies had become the first batch of mobs.
n
nEven the ridiculous level 5 had appeared.
n
nThe leaders of these countries had to come even if they didn’t want to. It was mainly about whether Pierce could publicize the secret in his hands.
n
nHowever, the Country M leaders smiled awkwardly in front of such a simple request..
n
n“As you know, Pierce was the one who discovered this secret, and we have no authority over it.”
n
n“Also, even if we can control him, we can’t contact him. You guys should know about Pierce. He basically doesn’t read the comments.”
n
n“Our leaders have no way to even express our sincere regards to him.”
n
nThe other leaders silently sighed.
n
nThey no longer had hope for their participants to bring any good resources to the country.
n
nAll they asked was for them to guard the city walls safely.
n
nThat was enough.
n
nAt the same time.
n
nThe leader of Country G walked over with a smile and shook hands with the leader of Country M.
n
n
n
n“From now on, Country M and Country G will be allies for generations!”
n
nThe moment that was said, the leaders of the surrounding countries could not help but tear up.
n
n“We are begging you. Let Pierce tell us the secret about the Tower Defense. We’re willing to be friends with Country M for generations. We can sign an agreement!”
n
n“…”
n
nIn the Tower Defense world.
n
nPierce, who was cleaning up the battlefield, suddenly received a message.
n
nHell Difficulty. Reward: Superpower Awakening in Country M!
n
nSuperpower awakening in Country M???
n
nBefore Pierce could react, the global media who were staring at the broadcast erupted!
n
