All-out Tower Defense: My Card-Drawing Talent is a Bit Strange

Chapter 124 Efficiency Improvement

The 49 horizontal turret construction cards cost a total of 3234 silver coins, equivalent to 323400 copper coins. Yang Fei didn't like large numbers, so he spent 1314 silver coins first, plus 180,000 copper coins, to make up the money for this purchase.

This shows that even without spending gold coins, Yang Fei's wealth was already quite staggering. After this purchase, Yang Fei still had 3136 silver coins and 638 copper coins.

Even purchasing nearly a hundred more turrets wouldn't be a problem, it's just not really necessary. Yang Fei prefers to observe the specific monster sieges and then "prescribe the right medicine for the disease."

After finishing the purchase, Yang Fei rested for a while and asked Mona to take the lesser demons who chose not to join the battle team to prepare lunch. This time, the defense would probably require taking turns eating in the middle of the battle. Everyone worked hard defending the wave, so it would be good to be able to eat directly after returning.

"Respected Apprentice Lord Yang Fei-1, your Newbie Trial Third Wave Doubled Extreme Mode (2x Extreme) Monster Siege will begin in ten minutes. Monster type: Slime; Monster level: Beast, level 0; Monster quantity: —"

36233.

"Please note that you have now activated the third wave of the Novice Trial in Double Limit Mode (2x Limit) monster siege. The four basic stats of the monsters have increased by 1.2 times. Please adjust your tactics accordingly."

"Please adjust the position of the War Slab — the movement and reconstruction functions will be restarted after the siege ends."

After the new monster siege began, Yang Fei was stunned. The number of monsters, 360,000, was beyond his expectations. He had thought that the number of monsters in this wave might be higher than 250,000, possibly close to or even exceeding 300,000, but he never expected that this wave would directly reach 360,000. Now he would have to work overtime seriously.

Yang Fei estimated that it would take seven hours to reach 200,000, but it would take more than twelve hours to reach 360,000. It's already past noon, and after this round, his daily challenge is probably in jeopardy. What a terrible decision!

In addition, I was thinking that I could have a good rest today, but I didn't expect this wave to be so exaggerated. After all this work, I probably won't be able to go to sleep until after midnight. Then I'll have to get up early again to face the monster siege with five times the limit. Just thinking about it makes me exhausted.

However, Yang Fei had nothing to complain about. Since he had chosen the monster siege himself, he had to complete this wave seriously first. As for reflection, that was something he would have to consider later.

Fortunately, I had been cautious beforehand. By opening chests, I had enhanced my Sky Island defense and spent a lot of money to purchase a large number of turrets. My defense was more than enough to deal with a group of 500,000 monsters. Otherwise, I would have either had to let the succubus girl go all out or I would have had to spend a lot of energy crystals.

Replacing Mona in command, Yang Fei's lineup was the same as during the extreme difficulty defense, with all members heading to their respective positions. As the Slime King's Gaze and Slime King's Steal were triggered one after another, the defensive battle against the siege of nearly 400,000 monsters gradually began.

Lola struck a Exploding Ice Slime first, triggering a chain reaction that separated the continuously surging slimes from the ice layers created by the Exploding Ice Slime's self-destruction.

The turret roared, killing all the ordinary slimes that had entered the war corridor and clearing it out.

Then, Sephira, a little slower, joined Lola's slaughter. The two demons from the abyss, using only their gray arrow towers, completely blocked the monster spawn point of the blue gate with ice and snow.

"Ding~, Your Excellency Apprentice Lord, you have displayed great bravery in protecting the Sky Island and defending against the Slime Clan's attack. The Slime Clan has developed a slight animosity towards you, triggering a special event, 'The Gaze of the Slime King.'"

"The next 83219 regular slimes will be replaced with elite-quality corrosive slimes. 66666 regular slimes will be replaced with elite-quality acid slimes, and 21111 regular slimes will be replaced with elite-quality blasting slimes. Good luck!"

"Ding~, Respected Apprentice Lord, your bravery in defending the Sky Island against the Slime Clan's attack has increased the Slime Clan's animosity towards you to a minor level, triggering a special event: The Slime King's Theft!"

"The next 38965 common slimes will be replaced with elite-quality bronze slimes, and 10000 common slimes will be replaced with elite-quality silver slimes. They will be stealing your territory's wealth, so please protect your assets!"

Yang Fei did not immediately open fire with the main force. Instead, he looked at the various slime counts displayed on the blue door, especially the number of Ice Slime, which was 20,000, which satisfied Yang Fei.

No wonder Lola managed to achieve such an effect all by herself; it turns out she triggered the same chain reaction as before. However, this time it wasn't intentional. There were just too many Ice Slimes, and their density in the monster horde had reached a point where they didn't need to be paid special attention to. It seems that the monster spawning efficiency of this siege has also increased!

Then, Yang Fei observed the number of monsters spawning on the blue door. Sure enough, the monster spawning speed had increased, from the original 500 per minute to about 600 per minute.

If this monster spawning rate can be maintained, then according to simple calculations, this defense might be completed in about ten hours, and today's daily challenge might not be wasted.

As Yang Fei predicted, during the first hour of the defensive battle, Lola and Sephira fired almost continuously, suppressing the entire slime horde near the blue spawn gate. The monster reduction efficiency remained unchanged, and nearly 36,000 slimes were wiped out on Yang Fei's sky island.

Seeing this, Yang Fei, who had been on edge, relaxed and told Lola to reduce the frequency of her attacks, handing over the defense center to the artillery positions, and began the first rotation.

The whole process went quite smoothly, thanks to Sephira clearing out some of the Ice Slimes on the edges. The arrow towers on both sides of the War Corridor were undamaged when the cannonballs hit the Ice Slimes and they exploded, which was perfect.

The bombardment lasted for nearly half an hour before the firepower gradually subsided. Lola, who had rested, rejoined the battle, and the battlefield was once again pushed back to the vicinity of the blue door. Sephira then stopped attacking, and Yang Fei, Li Han, and the others worked with Lola to continue suppressing the slime monster horde.

Yang Fei didn't have the ability to kill the Ice Slime in one go in a group of monsters, so he could only target the elite slimes. The same was true for Li Han and his partner. So it's not wrong to say that Lola was the only one dealing damage on the entire battlefield.
