Chapter 55 - Powerful Sentry Tower, Level Increase
"Master, I don't have any more strength..."
Mcgee quickly stuffed a fire-type crystal core into its mouth, but the Little Spirit Fox still needed time to digest it, so it could not immediately get up and fight.
The Heavenly Eye Spider Queen, who also used her skills frequently, also fell to the ground, exhausted.
At this time, neither the Steel Fairy nor the Greed Treasure Chest could help. The remaining beasts would definitely not be able to withstand the siege of dozens of Crypt Weavers.
At this moment, Mcgee was extremely hopeful that the construction of the puppet factory had been completed, so that he could have powerful puppet guards to help him deal with these troubles.
But this was just a thought. Now, he had to make a decision.
He looked left and right and decided to stall for time.
"Go to the sentry tower!"
Although the sentry tower had lost its offensive effect because there was no ammunition, the durability of its tenacity was enough to buy him enough time for the Little Spirit Fox to recover.
Soon, the Crypt Weavers broke into the outer boundary and crushed the watermelons in the farmland one by one. Next, they bit the charging pigs in the pigsty to death one by one and tore them apart to eat.
"Damn it."
Mcgee cursed. He felt a little uncomfortable that his efforts of several days had been destroyed just like that.
After climbing up the catapult tower with the beasts, he did not stay idle and began to make the ammunition needed for the tower.
[Arrow tower ammunition]
Required materials: Wood * 2, iron * 1, stone * 1(can be added with wind-type crystal core to obtain a stronger killing effect).
[Catapult ammunition]
Required materials: Stone * 5(additional ice type mana core can be added to obtain a stronger killing effect).
Mcgee looked at the Crypt Weaver, who was continuously gnawing on the bottom of the sentry tower. Then, gritting his teeth, he added a mana core to make it!
"System Notification: You have successfully made the wind element catapult ammunition * 100!"
"System Notification: You have successfully made the ice element catapult ammunition * 100!"
The system was still quite conscientious. A single piece of material could increase the ammo storage by 100. It was enough to last through the night.
If a unit of wood could only make one arrow, no one would be able to afford to use such an elemental sentry tower.
He distributed the crossbow arrows to Omori so that he could aim and attack. At the same time, he controlled the catapult and moved it to the place where the monster horde was most densely packed.
Soon, the two sentry towers relaunched their attacks.
The giant rocks that were covered in frost were smashed into the monsters one by one. Then, finally, the limbs of the Crypt Weaver were directly crushed and disassembled by the powerful force, splashing out stinky blood.
"System notification, your level has increased!"
Mcgee raised his eyebrows. It turned out that only by killing the monsters through traps like this, indirectly or directly by his hands, could he gain exp. It seemed that in the future, he really could not just let the tamed beasts take action. He could not command and watch the show. Otherwise, his level would not increase... the tamed beasts would also be stuck at level 6.
The first time he leveled up, he could not help but feel a little happy in his bad mood.
Mcgee could not help but take a photo and share it on the chat channel.
The densely packed monsters below instantly caused the constantly rolling chat box to fall into a dead silence.
"Big boss showed up late at night! Holy shit, is he fighting a monster?"
"F*ck, is this a game? I worked so hard to kill a level 2 heavy-armored bull, and big boss Mcgee is already pulling a group of monsters to grind for exp materials?"
"Don't mention that. I'm still playing with the trees. I don't have the guts even to fight a charging pig."
"F*ck, look, this is a f*cking bronze-quality level 5 monster!"
"Isn't this too ridiculous?"
"There's a cheat. End the game."
"Big boss Mcgee is like a modern man using a gatling gun to kill in the primitive society."
"Unbelievable, how on earth did he do it? With a trap?"
"I tried to challenge a level 4 monster today, and it almost killed my tamed beast."
"Comparing people is so infuriating. Can big boss lead us?"
Looking at the comments, Mcgee suddenly realized the tight and demanding survival requirements of this survival game.
Although his life was enjoyable, in fact, most people were still in the initial stage of the adventure.
They were given low-quality beast masters at the beginning. Although their strength was very poor, they were much more useful than themselves.
Beast Masters must maintain their absolute dependence on beast controllers in battle, which eventually led to all the experience being owned by the tamed beasts. The Beast Masters would not get a single bit of it.
At present, level six was a watershed. It was just when the Beast Masters could improve their strength by killing monsters to obtain equipment blueprints, materials, and other items.
Not to mention that they had not reached this level, even if they succeeded in raising the level of their tamed beasts, they would face a new problem by this time.
In this way, they would not have the source of equipment blueprints and materials to obtain. As a result, they would not be able to improve themselves. If they could not improve themselves, they would not be able to fight stronger monsters. Thus, they would be trapped in an endless cycle.
The invisible shackles restricted their growth. Other than a few lucky and powerful Beast Masters who could jump out of this restriction, they would basically have to stay in this area for a long time.
However, monsters would not let you develop slowly. If you run slowly, you would only end up dead.
"After the puppet factory is completed, put the sentry tower in the trading area to sell."
Mcgee thought about it. The living people were his leeks. This kind of basic labor force was essential. If they were all dead, how could he exchange for those ordinary materials?
If he wanted to build something, would he have to cut trees and break stones?
That would be too stupid.
Soon, the Little Spirit Fox entered the battle state again. The red flame skills fell one by one, and they would definitely ignite the bodies of several crypt weavers.
With the attacks of the sentry tower, space was cleared in an instant.
In less than half an hour, the Crypt Weavers were dead and disabled. None of them could still stand within the territory of their homeland.
"Master, you can go down later. We'll go clean up the battlefield first."
The Heavenly Eye Spider Queen reminded them that many Crypt Weavers were not completely dead on the ground. If Mcgee were injured, it would not be a small matter to be infected.
In this era, without antibiotics, any disease was fatal.
