Tower Defense Lord from Earth

Chapter 25 Preparing to Jungle

In Ma Xianlong's view, a person was driving a donkey cart at high speed in the distance, followed by a group of large black dogs with flames on their bodies!

"It's that guy who sells dried rats! Where did he get so many soldiers...?"

Ma Xianlong felt as if he had been punched in the chest. He found it hard to accept that the enemy's forces were stronger than his own.

However, he understood the current situation clearly. He took out a scroll, tore it open, and roared, "Dumb Goose, and Ha Dazhuang, cover my retreat!"

As he spoke, he had already started running at full speed, so fast that dust was kicked up behind him.

This guy was clearly using an accelerator roll.

The scroll not only affected him, but also his game assistant and Ha Dazhuang, causing their speed to increase dramatically.

At this moment, Liu Huasheng spotted Ma Xianlong in the distance. His eyes narrowed, and he immediately shouted, "Shuai Bo, catch up with that runaway guy and bite him to death!"

"Okay, he has two legs, but he can't outrun me with four!"

Wang Shuaibo responded and immediately sped up his run.

Liu Huasheng also gave chase in his donkey cart team, but Ha Dazhuang leaped over, wielding two axes, looking fierce and menacing. He then spun around like a top, creating a whirlwind, his body surrounded by axe shadows.

"Master, be careful! There's a B-rank hero ahead. He looks like an offensive type and has used an area-of-effect skill!"

Donkey Afu stopped abruptly and dared not approach.

At that moment, the ancient guardian, accompanied by a row of afterimages, caught up with Ha Dazhuang. Standing ten meters tall, he used the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to move swiftly and strike Ha Dazhuang with his hammer.

"For the Holy Light!"

Tom Cruise arrived with a gleaming silver hammer to lend his support.

"Hellhound, charge!"

Liu Huasheng shouted, and 10 hellhounds swarmed forward, their claws wreathed in flames, frantically attacking Ha Dazhuang.

What followed was a group fight.

The ancient guardians, Tom Cruise, and 10 hellhounds surrounded Ha Dazhuang. They attacked without thinking, and no matter how Ha Dazhuang spun around like a top, he was quickly reduced to white light.

However, thanks to Ha Dazhuang's delay, Ma Xianlong had already disappeared.

Liu Huasheng looked in the direction he fled and said, "That guy runs really fast. Hopefully, Wang Shuaibo can catch up. If he can kill him halfway, it'll save us a lot of trouble!"

After a moment's thought, Liu Huasheng decided not to continue the pursuit. He checked the condition of his subordinates: the Ancient Guardian was unharmed, Tom Cruise lost 50 points of health, and the 10 Hellhounds each lost nearly 20 points of health.

Naha Dazhuang has area-of-effect attack skills, and his damage output is not weak.

"Tom Cruise, you're a commander-type hero, these 10 hellhounds are yours! Ancient Guardian, follow the team, go on the expedition with me..."

Liu Huasheng issued orders, gaining a new understanding of the ancient guardians.

In its tree spirit form, this defensive tower seems to possess considerable intelligence, capable of responding to his commands. Moreover, it has the ability to move at lightning speed, even faster than Tom Cruise, and can quickly restore its durability by consuming trees, making it perfectly usable as a super soldier.

A moment later, Liu Huasheng drove up the hill and entered the gold mine, where he arranged for the five migrant workers who had been left behind to collect gold coins.

By this time, Liu Huasheng was operating four mines and could earn two thousand gold coins a day!

As for Wang Shuaibo, he chased after Ma Xianlong all the way, but he was always just a little short of catching up. Ma Xianlong was also wise; without stopping for a second, he ran wildly into Chaos City.

"That guy runs really fast!"

Wang Shuaibo muttered to himself. He could become invisible and was unafraid of defensive towers. He strolled around Ma Xianlong's territory and was quite surprised.

This territory is very well defended!

Chaos City has four basic arrow towers, and there are three second-tier flame towers and six basic arrow towers outside the city!

In addition, two pits were dug at the high ground intersection, there were 18 campfires around Chaos City, and nine lumber camps were built behind the high ground, with at least 50 laborers probably working to collect timber.

"This guy is too extravagant! He built so many campfires and lumber mills!"

Wang Shuaibo immediately realized that Ma Xianlong's family allowance was not bad, and he looked down on him.

He did examine the 18 campfires, which were burning brightly. They were clearly not defensive towers, but rather decorative structures, and their construction must have required resources.

"The boss's forces are not weak, but taking this place will probably take a while. Those three second-tier flame towers are difficult to deal with..."

Wang Shuaibo pondered silently.

Moments later, Wang Shuaibo infiltrated the gold mine and began massacring the migrant workers.

As expected, Wang Shuaibo easily killed 5 laborers. He left the gold mine and went to slaughter the laborers who were gathering wood outside the range of the defensive tower. He killed 10 more in one go, and his experience bar increased significantly.

This guy knew when to quit while he was ahead. After all the laborers had gone into the logging camp, he left without saying a word.

Below the high ground, Wang Shuaibo met Liu Huasheng and explained the situation on the high ground to him in detail.

Liu Huasheng said, "The feud is already established, and a battle is inevitable sooner or later. However, it's not advisable to launch a full-scale attack yet. Shuai Bo, you focus on his economy, defend him below the high ground, keep watch day and night, don't let him leave, and don't let him open a second mine!"

"As for leveling up, don't rush it. To be honest, I'm worried you'll attract too much aggro and cause other players to team up against me. I need a relatively stable environment right now to focus on dealing with Ma Xianlong!"

Liu Huasheng figured that Wang Shuaibo couldn't demolish the towers, and his leveling up involved drilling into gold mines and killing laborers, which would attract a lot of hatred. Although Liu Huasheng wasn't afraid of other players attacking the city, it would be quite troublesome if his expansion was harassed.

"Okay, then I'll stay here and wait out the enemy!"

Wang Shuaibo nodded in agreement. This guy seemed rebellious, but he was actually quite obedient.

A moment later, Liu Huasheng drove away in a donkey cart, leading the main force to the high ground at the 6:30 position on the map.

This place originally belonged to Guan Zhengxing, but it has now been occupied by Ma Xianlong. A basic arrow tower has been erected on the high ground, and there are farmers in the gold mine.

Liu Huasheng discovered that the basic arrow tower's durability was only a little over 500.

"It seems this place has been attacked by other players. It appears their siege tactics are weak, failing to destroy the basic arrow towers on the first attempt. Those players will likely come back..."

After a moment's thought, Liu Huasheng had Tom lead his troops to dismantle the basic arrow towers and slaughter the laborers, which could be considered as gaining some experience.

However, Liu Huasheng had no intention of occupying this high ground, nor did he have any idea of ​​opening a mine there.

Because this place is too far from his territory, and there are other players around, the location is too bad.

Liu Huasheng's four mines at the 3:30 position are still undefended. He thought that if he opened a mine there, he might be harassed. If multiple players harassed him, he might be overwhelmed and it would be a loss!

"Let's play it safe and proceed cautiously. At this stage, it's time to advance into the jungle and contest for jungle monster resources!"

With this in mind, Liu Huasheng led his team to the wilderness area.

He is now a formidable force, commanded by Tom Cruise, a LV3 B-class hero, and has 10 powerful hellhounds. Even more outrageous, he also possesses an ancient guardian who can run incredibly fast using the "Lingbo Weibu" technique. He is capable of fighting, tanking, and sustaining all his strength!

With such a setup, when else would you go but to dominate the jungle?

Even the donkey Afu was hawking: "My master is going to hunt for treasure in the wild, I'm going to sell dried rats in the wild, dried rats, dried rats, twenty yuan a piece..."
