Lei Chi built a Little Yellow Duck at the "4-meter" position in the "War Corridor," right next to the "Little Turtle." The attributes of this defensive tower stunned Lei Chi.
Is this thing not a joke?
Spraying saliva can only reach one meter. Even if you spray in a fan shape, how many people can you hit?
Also, does spitting count as a magical attack?
Furthermore, why is the upgrade material [Flame Gem]?
The little yellow duck is quite big, even bigger than the little tiger. It looks like a cute little chubby duck with yellow down. It spreads its wings and quacks, looking adorable.
"Fine, let it be a decoration!"
Lei Chi didn't expect the "Little Yellow Duck" to be of much use, but he did remember the material "Flame Gem".
At this very moment, in the Fei Huo Ying gang square, Yan Xiaoyan watched Mu Xiaoxiao learning to ride a bicycle, surrounded by a crowd who fawned over her like stars around the moon, and she felt very contemptuous.
"Why bother with a bicycle if you can't ride? You're learning all by yourself, and so many people are just flattering you. How pretentious!"
Yan Xiaoyan shouted in her group again: "What's going on with you guys? Hurry up and infiltrate the secret camp of the Thunder Pool and steal the bicycles for me!"
"We're in line!"
"Who was attacking his house just now?"
"I don't know! Anyway, it's in the protection period now!"
"Is he sore loser that he hired someone to deliberately hack into his account and extend his protection period?"
"Don't worry, Xiao Yan. I'm keeping an eye on his camp information. As soon as the protection period ends, I'll launch an invasion. He won't be able to escape!"
Su Youlin was also in the chat group. He said, "I just checked Lei Chi's camp information. This guy has suffered repeated invasions, but his development is still proceeding in an orderly manner. Now his camp's defense index has reached 11!"
"So what if it's level 11? It's not like it's a machine gun turret. It's just a bunch of melee monster turrets that pose absolutely no threat to us!"
"Su Youlin is a coward!"
"Can you guys stop being so brainless? That dangerous area is obviously not simple, okay?"
"Su Youlin, you coward +1, you're overthinking it!"
"A defense index of only 11, and you're too scared to go? Su Youlin is such a coward!"
"Let's change your name to Su Congxin!"
"Su, if you're too scared to go, you don't have to!"
"You! Fine, one day, none of you will dare to invade the Thunder Pool's camp. I'm making my words clear!"
"Why is it blowing now?"
"Idiot..."
In the chat group, there was a player named Qixinge who thought Su Youlin was really funny. He thought Su Youlin was just a small player in the Beast Tower and that Su Youlin could just brute force his way through. Why bother with him?
"But that bicycle is really rare. I wonder if we can still steal one."
Qixinger had never been to the secret camp of Leichi. He had heard that it was quite nice there, with boxed lunches and drinks. He really wanted to invade it, and he was confident that he could do it alone because he was big, nearly two meters tall, weighed 260 kilograms, and had trained in mixed martial arts. Now he had even reached LV16. Beating a Beast Tower player would be a piece of cake for him.
This person calculated the time carefully and set an alarm clock. As expected, the protection period of Lei Chi's secret camp had just expired when he successfully launched the invasion and arrived at Lei Chi's secret camp with satisfaction.
"Goodness, four little tigers, two little turtles, and a yellow duck, tsk tsk, what's the use of these melee towers? I really don't understand what players who play the Beast Tower are thinking."
After a moment of reflection, Zisinger continued walking at a leisurely pace.
[Small Green Snake]? Poisoning?
Don't worry, we have 1600 HP!
Two [Porcupines]? Only eight points of damage per second?
Don't worry, I still have over 1,500 health points!
What kind of tower is this? [Bubble Turtle]? Garbage! The damage is so low!
After traversing the 150-meter war corridor, Zisinger still had over 1,100 health points remaining.
At that moment, he saw the Thunder Pool.
"Damn, only LV1? Looks like he's been killed a lot!"
Qisinger completely disregarded Lei Chi's authority and shouted, "Hand over the bicycle, and I'll spare your life!"
"A bicycle? What kind of bicycle do you want?"
Lei Chi remained calm. Hearing the other person's words, he guessed that the big guy on the other side was likely a player from the Flying Fire Camp. He thought to himself, "This guild has really been with me as I've grown up."
"Stop pretending. Didn't Wu Jingang steal the bicycle from you?"
"That's interesting. You think we manufacture bicycles here? So if one's stolen, we just get a second one?"
Lei Chi, unfazed, added, "I'll show you something good!"
"Oh, what good stuff?"
"Hidden weapon!" Lei Chi took out an egg from his pocket and immediately threw it at Qi Xingge.
With a loud crack, the egg landed squarely on Qisinger's forehead, shattering and smearing his face with egg white and yolk.
"-1!"
Damage numbers appeared above Zisinger's head.
"Holy shit!"
He was instantly enraged.
Where did this guy get eggs to use as projectiles? They don't do much damage, but they're extremely insulting.
"You're dead!"
He immediately rushed towards Lei Chi.
Lei Chi neither dodged nor avoided the attack, and threw a second egg, which hit Kissinger in the chest. Kissinger thought to himself that the egg was worth a silver coin, and he was really wasting money.
However, using eggs as projectiles is very effective at attracting hatred.
Kissinger, a level 16 player with an attack power of 16, and with only 100 health points in his Thunder Pool, couldn't withstand many punches and was quickly killed.
Just as he was killed, the orc laborer ran out of the gold mine. Seeing the invading Qisinger, he acted as if he had seen a relative, hurriedly raising his hands and shouting, "My lord, spare me! My lord, don't kill me! There are no gold coins in the gold mine. There's just a chicken farm here. I'll take you there to kill some chickens..."
A moment later, Lei Chi revived in front of the Mushroom House.
"Ding! Your secret camp has been maliciously invaded by players. Losses tallied: Camp Master killed, 10 lunchboxes lost, 10 drinks lost, five laying hens killed, orc laborer killed, experience points reset, awaiting respawn!"
"Ding, claim calculation in progress..."
Lei Chi nodded, thinking to himself that Qi Xingge was a ruthless person. Even without his warning, he had killed the orc laborers and wiped out all the laying hens at the chicken farm. This was the epitome of an invading player!
The system notification continued: "Ding, your insurance premium is 5 gold coins, and your camp defense index is 11. After calculation, you will be compensated with a claim chest worth 150 gold coins. Would you like to claim it?"
"extract!"
Lei Chi was very unhappy. The system's compensation chest had been discounted again. He stepped forward and opened the compensation chest.
"Ding! One insurance policy ensures the safety of the city. No fear of invasion, no worries about reconstruction. You have opened the claim treasure chest and obtained camp reconstruction materials: one blueprint for a Tier 1 Beast Tower (choose one of three), 20 gold coins, and ten LV1 Battle Chickens (already distributed to the chicken farm)."
