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

It would be unpleasant if these people, lacking effective oversight, caused trouble for themselves. At least before having sufficient strength, no lord wants a large group to emerge under his command.

"Upon entering the Martial Realm, your physical data will be quantified, enabling you to fight against beasts and ferocious beast-level enemies in this sky island world. Of course, if you return to your own world, as ordinary people, you can, in principle, also be on par with beasts and ferocious beast-level enemies."

"Those of you who haven't been quantified are freer in your own world. Ordinary people, martial artists, beasts, and ferocious beasts are theoretically all on the same level and can harm each other. But here, without a certain level of cultivation, you can't harm beasts or ferocious beast-level enemies; you can only rely on defensive towers. So work hard."

After giving the necessary instructions, Yang Fei ignored the three people with their different expressions and returned to his thatched hut. He comfortably lay in the succubus girl's arms and took out the two white treasure chests and four gray treasure chests that had been dropped in the two waves.

"Let's continue playing the game we played before. This time, I still feel that there's more than one item in each of these six boxes." Yang Fei felt the softness behind him, yawned comfortably, and spoke slowly and weakly.

The succubus girl chuckled twice, tightened the door around her lord's tower a little more, but didn't say anything. Instead, she lightly lifted her foot and kicked open the six treasure chests one by one. It was no surprise that the white treasure chests cost 1 gold coin and the gray treasure chests cost 1 silver coin.

The two white treasure chests each yielded a white arrow tower card and a white war slab; the four gray treasure chests each yielded two gray arrow tower cards, one previously unseen gray card, and a fist-sized gray stone.

After collecting the 2 gold coins, 4 silver coins, and two gray arrow tower cards, Yang Fei used the War Stone and the white arrow tower card to add another white defensive tower to the Sky Island, filling another defensive tower slot.

The renewed strength of the Sky Island cheered Yang Fei up a bit. There was no way around it; lecturing the three of them was far more tiring than defending the city himself. If it weren't for the excitement of opening treasure chests, Yang Fei would have really wanted to get a good night's sleep.

After finishing all this, Yang Fei looked at the unknown card and the fist-sized stone, especially focusing on the stone. This thing looks familiar. Could it be another secret realm stone?

Sky Island Core Stone (Gray Common): A special product after a sky island has completely fallen. It can only be dropped by destroying the sky island core or world core. It is a core item for expanding sky islands. After use, it can extend the radius of the sky island by 500 meters.

Note: This core stone is of gray quality and can only be used on sky islands of gray quality or lower. It can only expand the sky island by fifty meters after being used on a white quality sky island, and it is useless on sky islands of green quality or higher.

Upon seeing the effect of the gray stone, Yang Fei suddenly woke up and was no longer sleepy. This thing was truly a good thing!

It's important to know that expanding the size of a sky island can only be done by upgrading its core buildings, and the area that can be expanded in this way is fixed. In other words, there's a limit to how many people a sky island can support, and this number is actually limited by the sky island's level. But with this thing, everything changes completely.

Moreover, as mentioned earlier, upgrading the Sky Island in order to expand it will strengthen monster sieges and even indirectly strengthen year-end exams and some special events, which is somewhat counterproductive.

But this thing is different. Why is upgrading a sky island connected to your core building? That's because upgrading a sky island is essentially improving your living environment and raising the level of spiritual energy around it. When the environment is better, the monsters will naturally become stronger.

Expanding the sky island using these core stones bypasses this process. It doesn't improve the living environment, but only increases the living area. Therefore, the monsters' strength doesn't increase, thus avoiding the consequences of upgrading the sky island.

Of course, this thing also has its downsides. The larger the floating island is, the easier it is for monsters roaming in the void to attack, which can easily trigger random monster sieges and require more defensive towers and manpower to quickly kill these monsters.

To solve all this, the only solution is to purchase a large number of defense towers and relocate a large number of people to the Sky Island. However, this relates to the previous problem: without sufficient strength, supporting more people is not necessarily a good thing.

However, this is not something Yang Fei needs to worry about right now. During the novice assessment period, it was said that there would be no random monster sieges or void monsters, so at least in this respect, he can rest assured for now. As for the issue of personnel, that is not something he needs to consider for the time being.

Yang Fei is a beta tester, so he definitely can't immigrate now. Even if he did, it would be two months from now. Besides, to protect his secret, he can't immigrate on a large scale at first; he can just bring his parents, younger brother, and younger sister over first.

As for Qianwu Star, it's even simpler. Yang Fei will agree to immigrants based on how much value these first people who moved here can create for him.

This is different from his compatriots on his home planet. To Yang Fei, they are always aliens, people who can be measured by their interests. Although they are all human, they are ultimately different.

In conclusion, expanding the Sky Island territory is actually not detrimental to me at present. On the contrary, I can use more land to plant True Qi Rice earlier, and even if I can't consume it all, I can still make a fortune by selling it.

"Can our lesser demons really farm?" Yang Fei asked the succubus girl, holding the precious core stone. This was the last question he had to ask, otherwise blindly expanding the area would be pointless in the end.

"No problem." The succubus leaned forward and pulled Yang Fei back into her arms, speaking softly with a disdainful expression. Yang Fei lay back in her embrace without hesitation and used the precious core stone.

As the core stone in their hands disappeared, the sky island trembled again. Yue Lingling and the other two, who were discussing the True Qi Technique, suddenly looked up and saw that the city wall where they were located was getting farther and farther away from the residential area.

"What is this?" Li Han asked, somewhat surprised.

"It must be the expansion of the Sky Island." Yue Lingling said uncertainly as she watched her group get further and further away from the thatched hut in the center.

"Then wouldn't that be able to support more people?" Wang Xueyao's slightly tired and numb expression suddenly showed a hint of excitement.

"It should be, but this place doesn't produce food, so it probably can't support more people." Li Han got excited after hearing Wang Xueyao's words, but then he thought of something and said somewhat dejectedly.

"Look, those demons seem to be going to cultivate the land? Are they going to farm?" As the floating island shook and disappeared, Yue Lingling noticed that several unicorn demons who had never set foot on the war corridor and had been cultivating all along quickly got up and headed towards the newly expanded territory with their tools.
