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

Furthermore, given that his demons are not very skilled archers, he must select one or more as backups and train suitable archery masters to meet the challenges ahead.

Seeing Yang Fei nod, Yue Lingling finally relaxed. She gestured slightly to Li Han in the distance, and Li Han quickly stepped forward and saluted Yang Fei.

Yang Fei noticed that the wounded soldier's complexion had improved significantly and was no longer so pale. He also looked at the emaciated children in the distance, who had also improved considerably. It seemed that a bowl of rice porridge had indeed helped them.

Yang Fei mentally gave the succubus girl and the lesser demons a thumbs up, but his face remained expressionless as he directly asked the soldier, "Are you willing to become my subject? This is the prerequisite for me to allow you to live on my sky island."

"Citizens?" Li Han frowned, somewhat hesitant. Although Yue Lingling had mentioned before that he needed to join this territory to grow and even recover from his injuries quickly, he never expected that this would be a prerequisite.

This was different from what I had expected. I originally thought it was an employment relationship, but it turned out to be a relationship of loyalty or master and servant.

"This is not a coercive measure, but a necessary process. I don't need your loyalty because it's unnecessary, but if you want to work here, you must become my subjects, and I can't change that."

Yang Fei looked at the conflicted wounded soldier in front of him and sighed helplessly. He also wanted to give them a treaty.

But there's no way around it; that's how the game is set. Apart from the people on the home planet, all other creatures, regardless of what work they do on the Sky Island, must become subjects recognized by the Heavenly Dao and possess quantifiable data.

"Alright." In the end, Li Han spoke up. He could tell that the lord in front of him was not lying. This world was completely different from the world in his mind. It was more like a game. Therefore, if he wanted to work, he had to abide by the rules of the game.

Name: Li Han

Race: Standard Human (Injured)

Realm: Mortal

Age: 21 years old

Loyalty: 60%. A brave soldier from another world. Your relationship with him is more like that of an employer and employee. He wants to become strong quickly to save his people on his home planet.

Identity: Citizen

Skills: Professional Soldier

Synopsis: From the technologically advanced planet Qianwu, which is on the verge of collapse, their world is about to be swallowed up by an endless horde of unidentified zombies. As one of the few remaining survivors, he desperately wants to save his world.

Looking at the system panel that had appeared before him, Yang Fei nodded and then said, "Becoming strong is not something that can be achieved overnight. After this defense is over, I will share the cultivation methods with you and Miss Yue, and then you can start cultivating."

"Understood." Li Han was quite surprised to see that Yang Fei's tone was calm and he didn't seem to mind that he wasn't loyal to him. Instead, Yang Fei wanted to teach him cultivation techniques. However, this was a good thing, and he could accept this condition.

"Do you have anyone else who can operate those ballistae?" Since he had chosen to accept these people, Yang Fei definitely wanted to select a few more skilled individuals and take advantage of this rare development period to train them in advance.

"My comrades still exist in that world. They can also operate ballistae, but their accuracy is somewhat questionable. As for the others, they can only use bows and arrows at most; they probably can't handle ballistae."

Hearing Yang Fei's question, Li Han's heart tightened again. There was nothing he could do. This was originally a prerequisite for being allowed to live there, but most of the compatriots in the settlement were students who rarely even touched weapons. How could they possibly use heavy ballistae?

"Alright then, Miss Yue, you can go ahead. You will climb onto a white arrow tower. You don't need to operate it; the tower attacks automatically. You just need to stay on top and direct the tower to attack my preset targets. No additional operation is required."

Having anticipated this, Yang Fei didn't say anything more. He just glanced at Yue Lingling, then looked at the refugee camp filled with children, the elderly, and pregnant women, feeling helpless.

The reason I sent Yue Lingling to gain experience was partly due to my own selfish reasons. After all, her loyalty was at its maximum, and she was also the intended contact person for managing these alien refugees in the future, so I had to train her a bit.

As for the wounded soldier, Yang Fei had specific arrangements: "Your current physical condition probably prevents you from using the ballista. You can have someone help you. Go and choose someone who is willing to become one of my subjects."

At this point, Yang Fei was somewhat speechless. Bringing up such a thing was actually impolite, but there was nothing he could do but continue to play the bad guy: "Although the arrow tower can fire automatically, it's only temporary. In the future, you'll need to actually operate it yourself. Now you need to teach that person how to operate the ballista in advance."

"Okay." Li Han nodded. Although it was somewhat different from what he had expected, he had finally found a job and a way to become stronger. Next, he would work hard to earn food for everyone, then focus on becoming stronger and fight his way back to his own world.

Soon, a young pregnant woman followed Li Han to Yang Fei's side. Yang Fei looked at her and saw that this young pregnant woman named Wang Xueyao had become one of his subjects. He nodded and let the two of them climb up a white arrow tower together.

After having Yue Lingling ascend another white arrow tower, Yang Fei ordered his men, who had been waiting for a long time, to get excited and prepare to welcome the next wave of monsters attacking the city.

"Understood, Trainee Lord Yang Fei-1, the second wave of your Novice Trial, Normal Difficulty Monster Siege, will begin in ten minutes. Monster type: Slime, Monster level: Beast, Level 0, Monster quantity: 386."

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

"Normally this wave should have 200 monsters, but now there are 386, which isn't too many. However, the last wave had 166 monsters, and with this wave, the number has exceeded 500. The energy of the defensive towers hasn't been fully restored yet, and five arrow towers aren't enough. So let's put the flamethrower towers in too, and save the energy of the arrow towers for elites and treasure chest monsters."

With the plan in place, Yang Fei had Youyi and the two lesser demons each climb onto their respective defensive towers. The succubus girl, along with two tentacle monsters, guarded the three white arrow towers that had been there before, still leading the charge, while he led the remaining three tentacle monsters to cover the rear.

As expected, after the arrow towers dealt with the elite monsters, the fire towers and slow towers came into play, wiping out the ordinary slimes with less than 60+60 HP. The three familiar treasure chest monsters were also killed by Yang Fei and his group. The group easily passed this wave.

The basic reward for this wave was a lumber mill. Yang Fei built it without hesitation. Now that he had a lot of people, there was nothing to hesitate about. Even if it was only 10 units of wood a day, it was still an accumulation.
