Tower Defense: Public Enemy

Chapter 31 I've leveled up to level 3

With the possession of the Water Cannon Turtle, Thunder Pool gained a range of 50 meters. The cannon barrel on its shoulder automatically locked and quickly began firing water cannonballs.

Unfortunately, Thunder Pool is only at level two, with an attack power of 2. Although the water cannonballs can still bounce five times after hitting the first target, they only bounce and do not deal any damage.

In this way, Lei Chi only needed to attack the green slimes within his range. There were many green slimes around, and they would respawn after being killed. Lei Chi could kill one with two water cannon shots, and he killed a hundred in less than seven minutes.

Some slimes were attracted to the tree, but they could only wander around helplessly below, unable to do anything about Lei Chi who was perched on the tree branch.

Lei Chi thought to himself, "Low-level monsters are just low-level monsters; their intelligence is too limited."

At this point, Lei Chi has completed the [Counterattack] quest and can communicate with the system to return. However, there's nothing to do back there, so he might as well stay here and level up.

That's right, you can level up by killing slimes in Raichi. In his attribute panel, there is an experience bar for leveling up. If you kill 100 green slimes, the experience bar will be filled by 10%. Raichi's leveling progress is also 10%.

Based on this calculation, Lei Chi only needs to kill 900 more green slimes to level up. Unfortunately, his attack speed is too slow, taking two seconds to fire a water cannon. It's impossible to level up in this slime nest by only fighting green slimes.

Further away, there are mud slimes, horned slimes, and other creatures that Lei Chi can see while riding on a tree branch. However, their locations are beyond Lei Chi's range, so Lei Chi has no intention of getting down from the tree to fight them. He'll just safely farm green-skinned slimes.

About ten minutes later, Lei Chi discovered that a slime the size of a small cow had spawned about thirty meters away from him. It turned out to be a green-skinned slime baron, level 1, but with 100 health points!

"The Green-Skinned Slime Baron, is that considered an elite monster?"

Lei Chi was overjoyed and immediately adjusted the cannon's muzzle to begin attacking the green-skinned slime baron.

The green-skinned slime baron, after being hit by a water cannonball, immediately developed a hatred for the Thunder Pool. He made a wailing sound and charged towards the Thunder Pool, attracting a group of green-skinned slimes to join the charge.

Unfortunately, although the slime was a baron, it was still just a melee monster and couldn't climb trees, so it paced around anxiously under the tree.

Lei Chi killed it in 100 seconds, his experience bar increased slightly, and his level-up progress increased by 5%. This means that killing the Green Slime Baron is equivalent to killing 50 ordinary Green Slimes.

And that green-skinned slime baron actually dropped some loot.

It was a green leather object. Lei Chi was riding on a tree, and unless he held it in his hand, he couldn't see its properties.

"I'll go down and pick this up later, when the time is almost up and I'm about to be forcibly teleported away!"

Lei Chi silently made his plans. About ten minutes later, another Slime Baron spawned within fifty meters of him. Lei Chi killed it, and his upgrade progress increased by another 5%. Moreover, the Slime Baron also dropped a green leather item.

"If a few more slime barons come along, my chances of leveling up are slime-worthy!"

Lei Chi was filled with anticipation. After that, a Slime Baron would spawn almost every ten minutes. As the one-hour stay time was about to end, Lei Chi had killed a total of five Slime Barons, which filled his experience bar and leveled up.

A golden light flashed around him, his health increased by 300 points, and his attack power increased by 3 points. Now, one water cannon shot is just enough to kill a green slime.

"Unfortunately, it's time!"

Lei Chi fired a few shots casually, but stopped attacking. He jumped down from the tree branch, braving the attack of more than a dozen green slimes, picked up five green leather objects, and just as he put them into his storage backpack, his body turned into light and he was forcibly teleported away.

"Ding! You have been in the Slime Nest for one hour, and have killed a total of 921 LV1 Green Slimes and 5 LV1 Slime Barons. Congratulations on completing the counterattack mission!"

"Ding, mission complete. The length of the [War Corridor] has increased by 50 meters. You have gained one opportunity to rearrange all defensive towers."

"Ding! After defeating the 10th wave of monster invasion, a new war mission will appear in the War Hall. Stay tuned."

Lei Chi was forcibly teleported back to the War Hall, where he retrieved the items dropped by Baron Slime to examine them.

[Slime Skin: A material that can be used to craft leather hats, leather armor, leather clothing, leather boots, etc. Please explore on your own for more details.]

"It's just low-grade material."

Lei Chi immediately lost interest in the loot he had picked up. He left the War Hall and casually tossed the five Slime Skins next to the Lunchbox Maker, waiting for someone to come and plunder them.

"I wonder if the players from the Flying Fire Camp will still invade after the protection period ends. I need to go and attract some more aggro."

After a moment's thought, Lei Chi took 10 of the 90 gold coins he received as compensation from the system and used them to buy ten laying hens at the chicken farm. He then used the remaining 80 gold coins to repurchase intrusion insurance.

Then, Lei Chi brought up the chat panel.

The free chat in the Beast Tower player chat group has been refreshed, and Lei Chi, without thinking twice, directly posted a boast in the group: "@All members, you are all noobs, only I know how to play Beast Tower, I call myself the Beast Tower Star!"

"Lei Chi: @All members, I'm not targeting any one person, I'm saying you're all trash. If you're not happy, come and invade my secret camp and see how I use the Beast Tower!"

"Lei Chi: @All members, ID Q543131241, come if you're not afraid to die, otherwise you're all weaklings!"

Yang Taiyang: This eagle is at it again, trying to make me laugh to death!

Hua Tianbao: @Lei Chi, bro, help me out!

Lin Donglei: Haha, what kind of expert is he? He's a complete idiot. He clearly can't play, but he insists on pretending to be a pro! Everyone, this guy named Lei Chi is terrible at the game. I already invaded his camp, he's no match for me!

Lu Xiaoman: Speaking of which, the boxed lunches smell pretty good. @Lin Donglei @Li Tianming @Yang Taiyang, how about we go and get another batch?

Hua Tianbao: Add me to your team, I want to learn from the pros!

Lin Donglei: No problem, I'll take you along. We're all playing Beast Tower, let's help each other out...

Lin Donglei, Li Tianming, and the others quickly agreed on the invasion plan.

They were mainly eyeing the boxed lunches and drinks at the Thunder Pool camp, and also because they were really bored. The Beast Tower players were developing too slowly, so they didn't dare to launch a monster invasion. They either dug for gold coins in the gold mine or spied on other players in the chat group.

Speaking of which, these four are quite oddballs. They were too lazy to check the information about Lei Chi's secret camp. When they discovered that his secret camp was under protection, they weren't curious at all. As soon as the protection period ended, Captain Lin Donglei immediately launched a team invasion.

However, they are not in the same clan and do not have a clan camp. Even if they form a team, they cannot get together. They can only open the portal themselves in the War Hall of their own secret camp.

In fact, it wasn't just the five of them who launched the invasion of Lei Chi's secret camp at this moment; there were also Mu Xiaoxiao's team, Yan Xiaoyan's team, and the solo player Qi Xinge.

Mu Xiaoxiao had accepted the mission, and she didn't intend to stop after just one invasion of Lei Chi's secret camp. In her opinion, she should at least bring Lei Chi down to LV1.

Yan Xiaoyan, however, had ulterior motives. She noticed that after Mu Xiaoxiao and her group launched an invasion of Lei Chi's secret camp, the camp's defense index still increased slightly, so she wanted to go and see what was going on.

Of course, she also saw this invasion as an opportunity to show off her power and develop her subordinates, and assembled a large group of a hundred people.

As for Qixinge, he was very depressed. His camp had just been invaded by Wu Jingang and his large group of men, and he was thinking of robbing some boxed meals and drinks from Leichi's secret camp to make up for the losses.

However, Mu Xiaoxiao, Yan Xiaoyan, and Qi Xinge seemed to be slower than Lin Donglei. They had been waiting for the invasion for a long time, but Lin Donglei, who launched the invasion at will, beat them to it.
