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!
