Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

when……

The melodious bells echoed through the black mist in the church, and the outline of a bloody rising sun was projected in the diamond-shaped flower window above the statue.

Its daybreak.

Cheng Shen's divergent perception keenly sensed that some mysterious substances were dissipating in the air. He raised his head as if feeling something, and the statue of the invisible lord had returned to the posture when he first met, with his arms folded on his chest.

The hazy aura that enveloped the statue all subsided.

The sound of the bell awakened the people in the church. They followed Teresa's example and prayed to the statue to thank the invisible for blessing them to spend a peaceful night.

Then, except for Wright's eyes that had not fully recovered and had no fixed residence, the others left in a hurry.

"Doctor, what time are you free today, I will..."

Santa Liana twitched at Cheng Shen.

"It's noon."

Cheng Shen thought for a while and said.

"it is good……"

Santa Liana breathed a sigh of relief and left.

Cheng Shen picked up the package, and he was also about to take office, and by the way, he searched for the team of the Healing Church to hand over these relics.

"Are you leaving?"

Teresa asked politely.

"I'll be back." Cheng Shen said casually. He had just arrived in the lower city and hadn't found a place to live yet. Moreover, he had already decided to be a part-time hunter. Living in the invisible church would also allow him to cash in the hunting harvest in time.

Theresa heard the words but would be wrong.

She looked distressed and said: "I will try to repay the favor I owe you, but the church now rarely has people donating. If it is a financial need, it may be a little difficult..."

The hazy halo covering her body faded with the night, and Teresa lost the mysterious blessing. She was wearing a very thin robe that was washed, and against the thin face of malnutrition, she was a little pitiful.

Cheng Shen said directly: "In exchange for a favor, I will shelter in the church for one night, and I will stay here for the next few days."

Teresa was puzzled, and she said euphemistically: "You are already a believer approved by the Lord, so you don't need to calculate so clearly..."

"One yard owned by a yard."

Cheng Shen said that he could not refuse.

His exchange with the invisible lord through hunting points is a fair deal, other than that.

He didn't want to owe anything to the unknown god.

leave the church.

The system sound also sounded as promised.

[Mission completed—the disaster of the past ②! 】

[Obtain: Permission Unlocked (1%)! 】

[The progress of the main line has been updated! 】

……

Carl's identity also passed the night safely, and there was no night attack by his sister...

The system permission unlocked again allowed Cheng Shen to obtain the right to use the backpack three times. Counting the saved one, he can now take out four items from the backpack.

The options are suddenly abundant.

Still keep it first.

Cheng Shen deduces various situations that may be encountered next in his mind in advance, makes a response choice, and lists a few props that are relatively high in demand.

Doing so can greatly avoid confusion when things come to an end.

Subsequently.

He looked at the updated main quest.

"Get the asylum level of any false god to reach level [-]? The time limit this time is three days..."

Cheng Shen looked at the information revealed by the mission with some amusement.

"False God..."

It's a wonderful name.

According to the system's identification, this invisible lord is not a real god, and, judging by its meaning, such false gods exist, and there seem to be several or even more in the old city...

"The Sanctuary of the Invisible Lord that I have now has a second level, and if I want to complete the task, it must be the first choice.

Three days should be enough time for me to upgrade the asylum level to level four. "

Cheng Shen thought to himself.

The function of the asylum level he currently knows is to increase the ratio of hunting value in exchange for rewards.

from this angle.

Focusing on brushing the protection level of a god is also the most profitable choice.

Compared with the previous two tasks, the information revealed by this main line task does not seem to be that urgent.

It's more like the system is giving him time to adapt to the environment here.

……

There were no traces of last night's battle on the bloody street.

Cheng Shen looked back.

The church standing on the corner of the street is like a dilapidated ancestral hall, blending into the surrounding low-rise buildings. It is inconspicuous, and the dust raised on the street gradually obscures the sight, making the church more old-fashioned.

"How can the Healing Church tolerate the existence of multiple beliefs?" He thought of a question.

And the broken information he captured at dawn also made him feel inexplicable.The invisible lord seems to dare to descend its power into the church only at night, and will automatically hide in the daytime.

Because of……?
Cheng Shen raised his head and glanced at the cloudy, blood-red sun.

Clang...

A gust of wind blowing through the armor brought the sound of collisions into Cheng Shen's ears. A special team came to the corner of the street. They were dressed in neat armor, and their helmets were like iron barrels, leaving an inverted triangle-shaped gap.

On the left side of their pristine breastplates they wear a short encircled cross with a pattern, and on the right side the symbol of two long swords crossed.

Silver Palace.

Another armed organization under the Church of Healing.

Compared with the Salvation House, which specializes in dealing with weird events, the Silver White Temple appears more often in the eyes of the public. They belong to the conventional armed forces used by the Healing Church to maintain its rule, and they act cruelly and viciously.

Their reputation is even more frightening to ordinary people.

hum...

The leading tall soldier was holding a white jade container in his hand, which was faintly visible, and there was a scarlet liquid flowing in the container. Cheng Shen approached them, and at the same time, he also paid attention to the blood color in the container becoming thicker.

"stop!"

The soldier stopped Cheng Shen after a long distance.

"I'm here to hand in the items."

Cheng Shen had already recognized that they were the team that Teresa mentioned to recover the hunter's relics. The items in the soldier's hand also had a faint scent of divine blood, which seemed to be sensitive to divine blood weapons.

Therefore, he took the initiative to speak without waiting for the other party to ask.

"Oh……"

After seeing the crow mask on Cheng Shen's face clearly, the soldier's gaze shone with fear.

Afterwards, he saw the bulging package in Cheng Shen's hand, and asked in surprise and vigilance: "You picked up so many relics by yourself!?"

Cheng Shen nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I don't want to see those heroes who fight for our tomorrow, and can't even find the last relic to prove their identity. You don't have to thank me, this is what I should do!"

"……Thanks a lot!"

Hearing his words, the soldier felt a little weird in his heart, but he didn't have the slightest doubt. Everyone who knew the truth would admire these sad hunters who were willing to fall into the darkness and stop the disaster from spreading.

It is their selfless dedication that makes the city rise in the night time and time again.

Cheng Shen's words resonated with the team all of a sudden.

They put their fists on their chests and saluted reverently:
"May your souls sleep in the endless night..."

"Thank you so much!"

Alfred took the heavy package with both hands, this scene made Cheng Shen a little embarrassed.If he let them know, these weapons were all obtained by him watching the hunters do nothing to save them.

I'm afraid they will be torn apart on the spot...

"you are welcome."

Cheng Shen looked at Alfred eagerly, wouldn't it be inappropriate for him to directly ask for a reward in this situation...?
Fortunately, Alfred is sensible.

He checked it, and then took out a money bag from his arms, "Every time you turn in a weapon, you can get a gold reward. This is a rule set by the church. You have submitted fourteen items, which is what you deserve." .”

He poured out a handful of yellow gold coins, counted out fourteen of them and handed them over.

gold……

Cheng Shen glanced at it.

The currency system of the old city is relatively simple, one gold equals ten silver equals one thousand coppers.These fourteen gold coins, converted into his salary, are equivalent to the salary of the past three years!Margot couldn't be more happy when she saw it?

Cheng Shen approached Alfred, took the gold coins, and forced one of them into his hand.

"It's also very hard for you to search for the hero's relics conscientiously. With this little money, I treat my brothers for breakfast."

He said familiarly.

"This...is against the religious rules." Alfred refused bluntly.

"Just a little thought from me."

Cheng Shen smiled slightly.

The strength of this team of silver and white knights is not too exaggerated. He can sense the emotional changes in everyone's heart. When Alfred said these words, he clearly sensed the resentment in other people's hearts.

It seems that

This knight captain is usually not very popular...

"Actually, I have something to ask for." Cheng Shen said without waiting for him to refuse again.

His tone became serious, "I strayed into the black mist last night, and I witnessed the greatness of unsung heroes. I also want to do my part to purify the city, and join the hunter group as a member of the hunting team!"

"You want to be a hunter!?" Alfred was in awe, but he said seriously: "Hunter is not a glamorous job. If you want to show off, I advise you to give it up!"

"I'm ready to die."

Cheng Shen said softly.

"You don't understand the suffering you have to endure to become a hunter..." Alfred persuaded, at this moment, there seemed to be a soft place in his heart that was suddenly touched, and he suddenly felt a sense of admiration for Cheng Shen.

"But……"

He frowned, and finally found the place where he always felt weird, "Aren't you a crow doctor?!"

In people's perception, Dr. Crow is a group of cold-hearted executioners who will do anything for money.This is also a group of extremely greedy devils!

When did Doctor Crow have such lofty beliefs?

tsk...

Cheng Shen replied calmly: "I joined Doctor Crow to save more people. I want to do more things for this city within my ability."

For ordinary people, what he said to him might only feel hypocritical.

But Cheng deeply felt Alfred's heart, this is a person who insists on fairness and justice to the point of paranoia.

The talent of emotional perception not only allows Cheng Shen to know the inner thoughts of others.

He also developed the ability to talk nonsense when he sees people...

"So it is." Alfred believed Cheng Shen's words, and he pushed back the gold coin in his hand: "You don't need to ask me about this, the recruitment of hunters will be carried out every month, as long as you can pass the test."

"But the next recruitment will be at the end of the month."

Cheng Shen shook his head.

He had already made it clear to Teresa that the last hunter assessment had just ended, and the next assessment would have to wait 27 days.

too long.

"Wait a little longer and you'll have to think more about it!"

Alfred said.

"I... have experienced irreparable things, and I don't want to let waiting become a regret."

Cheng took a deep breath and said in a sad tone.

In all fairness, his acting is mediocre, but assisted by emotional perception.

His words are simply more touching than master-level acting skills.

The sadness in Alfred's heart was aroused, he remembered his past, and immediately sympathized with Cheng Shen.

"This matter is not without exception... I can ask my teacher to help you!"

He said after thinking deeply.

"Thank you!"

Cheng Shen was so moved that he stuffed half of the reward he had just received into his hand, "I can't owe you a big favor in vain. Even if you don't want this money, you can share it with your brothers and buy a gift for your teacher!"

"I can't accept it, this is the rule."

Alfred insisted.

"..."

Cheng Shen choked on the gold coin forced back into his hand and was speechless for a while.

"Whether you can become a hunter or not, the most important thing is to see if you can pass the test. If you don't have the strength, I will help you and hurt you."

he said seriously.

"I understand." Cheng Shen nodded, "I've made all the preparations."

Alfred said: "When I finish my morning patrol, I can take you to see my teacher. Which street do you work in at the clinic? I will come to you then."

"Shengyin Street."

Cheng Shen said.

"Hope to have a healthy day."

Alfred bid farewell to him while saying the blessings of the Healing Church.

"Here we have a clue about the journey of finding a job as a hunter..." Cheng Shen thought that this matter would take some twists and turns.

As for,

test……

Cheng Shen thought that his strength was definitely not as good as other hunters.

But with the advantages of not being afraid of being infected and being good at medical treatment, it shouldn't be too difficult to get a licensed place...

The Crow Clinic on Shengyin Street is not far from the Invisible Church, only one street away.

The "prosperity" of this block is basically concentrated near this street.

The gray-white two-story building is located at the corner of the street, and every window facing the street is covered with white cloth. As soon as you get close, you can hear waves of horrific wailing and screams from the clinic.

The smoky smell of some burning herb hangs over the street.

The smell of spicy eyes makes the eye circles of passers-by turn red.

At this time, not long after the sky brightened, many people gathered around the clinic supporting patients one by one.There is a simple prayer room not far from the clinic, and there is a long queue of people entering and leaving to pray.

"Pray for God? Why don't you ask me..."

Cheng Shen thought to himself.

When he approached, the door of the clinic opened with a bang, and a man wearing a white veil came out, "Don't gather here! I told you not to gather here! If you don't have money, get out and don't waste time!"

"...?"

Cheng Shen was slightly taken aback.

Even though the man in front of him was already swearing at each other so badly, the patients around him still squeezed in like a dog's plaster the moment he appeared.

"My lord, please help me! Cough cough...! I'm about to be unable to hold on anymore. When I recover from my illness, I will make money and return it to you...!"

"I can't take the pain anymore! Please give me a few pills, my lord!"

"Please help my mother! Please!"

"We just scraped together a little money..."

"..."

What is hell on earth?

Cheng Shen looked at the sallow and emaciated patients and their families in tattered clothes in front of him.

They are living in hell right now.
