Chapter 31: The Orc Warrior Tower and the Inner Fire
Lin Chuan did not dismantle the outposts in the field.
The original intention was to test the strength of the orcs.
It now appears that the attacking orcs are quite powerful.
"Arthur".
"The enemy has appeared at night."
"Order a state of alert."
Lin Chuan used up the Dust of Mirroring, mainly in the area between the southern city wall and the territory.
Approaching these two areas will allow enemies to become visible even when they are invisible.
The safety of the territory is entrusted to a few heroes and arrow towers.
Lin Chuan was confident that he was well-prepared and that the orcs would not be able to take over his territory at night.
He looked at the spoils of the attack on the orc outpost.
"The most important thing is reputation."
"Ten watchtowers, ten reputation points."
The 2000 reputation points needed for the upgrade are just a drop in the ocean.
It seems that gaining reputation is probably not through monsters in the wild.
You need to wage war against other civilizations to gain a lot of reputation.
"With my current strength, I can try entering a difficult level of the secret realm."
Lin Chuan was planning something big in his mind.
Then open the ten watchtower chests.
Most of them are magic cores and gold coins.
A few people got the equipment.
One of the treasure chests contained an orc warrior tower.
【Orc Warrior Tower】: Possesses Berserk and Heavy Strike skills, which can grant excessive attack speed and stun effects.
This defensive tower doesn't have high attack power; its main strength lies in its control effect.
Orc warrior towers can be surprisingly effective against some tough and durable units.
Lin Chuan didn't build too many; he only added four.
Lin Chuan used all the experience points he gained from killing orcs on leveling up his Victor skill.
A new skill, Mind Fire, has been added.
【Fire of the Soul】: Used to ignite the potential of friendly units, greatly enhancing their overall attributes. It can be stacked up to ten times, increasing attributes, damage, and other values by up to ten times.
"Victor's potential as a war mage seems to extend beyond just offense."
Although Inner Fire is a support skill, its value is far greater than that of ordinary attack spells.
Just then.
An orcish legion appeared outside the territory.
"roar."
"Kill the intruder."
"For the orcs."
Thousands of orc legions surged in and launched an attack on Lin Chuan's territory.
At night.
Monsters can provide attribute boosts.
The orc army is tougher at night than during the day.
A wolf-tooth arrow with armor-piercing effect requires five arrows to kill one enemy.
Even the high-level elven tree towers have limited effect on orcs.
It's not possible to sell out instantly.
For aura-type damage arrow towers, if you can't kill them in time, the orcs will overwhelm you with sheer numbers.
Soon, countless flying axes rained down on the city wall.
"Knock knock knock".
The city wall's durability decreased rapidly.
But it's still within an acceptable range.
It has the added effect of an absolute defensive arrow tower.
The orcs could not breach the city walls in a short time, nor could they harm the arrow towers protected by granite.
At this point, the arrow towers can easily kill the enemy.
The approaching orcs quickly died in droves under the poisonous aura of the elven dryad's arrow tower.
"Your Lordship"
Arthur looked at the orc in the darkness and said.
"Too many."
"Our soldiers will focus fire and kill them as soon as they stand on them."
"With just the arrow towers, I'm afraid these orcs will soon be able to storm the city walls."
The orcs began to climb the city walls.
These orcs were able to climb up the slippery granite layer.
Indeed, as Arthur said, there was no better way; these orcs would soon climb up.
"Victor."
"Yes, Your Excellency."
He stepped forward, having been waiting for a long time.
He chanted a spell for a raging storm.
"Dancing fire spirits."
"Heed my call."
"Destroy these filthy orcs!"
.....
At the very beginning.
The orcs only felt a slight heat.
They didn't care.
After all, this was a mission bestowed by the gods: to eliminate any alien lords who dared to invade.
However, not long after.
The ground temperature rose to over 100 degrees Celsius.
The orcs felt the axes in their hands burning hot.
But I can still tolerate it.
A true orc warrior could never be defeated by such a burn.
But when the temperature suddenly spikes to several hundred.
The orcs' bodies were instantly set ablaze.
"Ah~"
A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the night.
Countless orcs transformed into torches.
Howling in the darkness of night.
After the temperature reaches over a thousand degrees.
The wailing has stopped.
All that remained were clusters of burning flames.
"call."
Victor let out a breath.
The recent firestorm had consumed all of my magic.
For a moment, I couldn't stand up straight.
The magic apprentice beside him helped him up and gave him some high-grade healing spring water to drink.
Viktor had just recovered a little.
"Your Lordship"
"It will take some time for the temperature to drop."
"It should be about time by tomorrow."
"Just these orcs and their equipment~"
Looking at the burning orcs outside his territory, he said somewhat apologetically.
"Um."
"It's alright."
The massive war spell burned the orcs to death, turning their equipment and corpses to ashes as well.
This time, the harvest was several hundred thousand experience points.
It looks like a lot.
But it's only enough to raise Arthur's level to LV19.
"Ding-dong."
"Arthur's attributes have been improved, and he has gained the skills Thunder Slash, Shockwave, Charge, and Earth Shatter."
All four skills are aura-based attack techniques.
Thunder Slash is a passive effect that uses battle aura to enhance the weapon, increasing attack speed and granting ranged attack capabilities.
A shockwave, formed from concentrated fighting spirit, destroys units in a straight line.
Charge is a movement skill, similar to Savage Charge, but it covers a longer distance and can change direction at will.
The Earth-Splitting Slash jumps up and slams down, suppressing and slowing the target.
"Arthur is just one level away from reaching LV20."
"Begin the process of entering the third awakening."
He's the fastest, but the other heroes are a bit slow.
Except for Viktor, they have all awakened only once.
"Rhea, Alice, and Daenerys all need to be trained."
At this time.
The lord system popped up a message.
"Ding-dong."
"Successfully defended against the orc attack, and received a Defense Achievement Chest*1 as a reward."
"Your territory has been marked by orcs, and even more powerful orcs will attack you soon."
"Starting tomorrow, at least three thousand orcs will attack every day, and their numbers and strength will increase daily."
"The number of attacks at night is ten times that of those during the day."
"Please make sure to increase your strength and defend your territory."
"We can also attack orc cities, destroy orc garrison cities, and relieve the pressure of the attack."
"Using items to conceal the location of your territory can also help you avoid orc attacks."
"Related items can be obtained by entering difficult dungeons."
The appearance of this message made Lin Chuan slightly nervous.
"I didn't expect it to be this dangerous."
If you want to survive, there are only two paths left.
"To garrison troops in cities."
A decision can only be made after further investigation.
But it will definitely be a tough fight.
Then the only option is to enter a difficult secret realm and find items to avoid combat.
Lin Chuan was mentally prepared for entering the difficult secret realm.
"It's time to confront the lords of other civilizations head-on."
"There's no time to lose."
"Go in now."
He took out the secret realm token he had obtained earlier.
Before entering, Lin Chuan opened the treasure chest he had just obtained.
"Ding-dong."
"Open the treasure chest to obtain the gold-grade equipment Silver Scale Breastplate."
"Obtained the rare item Holy Light Retribution Nun Job Change Quest Book".
