Chapter 86 Matrix Upgrade
"The basic power tower's capabilities are average, and thermal power generation isn't particularly useful for now. The basic wind tower is much more powerful, with its 'Great Wind Song' control effect being top-notch! The watchtower has an aura, the 'Thousand-Mile Radar' has significant strategic value, and the 'Magic Sound Tower' is also extraordinary, with its map-wide broadcast being indispensable. So, which one should we choose to use the upgrade scroll for?"
Liu Huasheng muttered to himself, finding it difficult to choose, and ultimately decided to let the "metaphysical ritual" decide.
This mystical ritual is basically drawing lots!
He took the construction hammer from his waist and said, "I'll throw the construction hammer vertically and see how it lands. If the hammerhead points east, upgrade the basic electric tower; if it points south, upgrade the basic wind tower; if it points west, upgrade the watchtower; if it points north, upgrade the magic sound tower! If it lands exactly southeast, northwest, northeast, southwest, or vertically, don't upgrade anything and save the scroll for later!"
After saying this, Liu Huasheng threw out the construction hammer. The hammer flew seven or eight meters high before landing, with the hammerhead pointing directly east.
"Since it's fate, let's upgrade the basic power towers!"
Liu Huasheng stopped dwelling on it. He had to accept the rules he had set. He used the [Tier 1 Defense Tower Upgrade Scroll] to upgrade the [Basic Electric Tower], directly elevating it to a Tier 3 defense tower, and renaming it the [High Voltage Electric Tower]!
Name: High-voltage power tower; Grade: 3
Floor area: 6m*6m
Durability: 9000
Attack: 300
Attack range: 150 meters; Attack speed: 0.5
Attack Type: Special Physical Attack Effect: [High Voltage Electric Shock], the high voltage tower emits electric shock rays from the top sphere, dealing powerful high voltage electric shock damage to a single target, ignoring the target's physical armor, having a brief stun effect, and a certain chance to cause burning, explosion, etc., but it does not damage insulated targets or certain special creatures!
Amazing ability: [Power generation], ————
Note: 22.56 kWh of electricity has been stored.
Liu Huasheng checked the attribute information of the [High Voltage Power Tower], his brows furrowing slightly.
Its magical ability [firepower generation] remains unchanged. The defense tower has been upgraded by two levels, but this only increases its base attack power and attack range, while its attack speed has actually slowed down.
"300 points of base attack power should be sufficient! And with thermal power generation, the stronger the firepower, the faster the power generation, so the power generation capacity of this high-voltage power tower should also be significantly improved!"
Liu Huasheng didn't dwell on it too much and immediately drank the stamina potion.
The fifth wave of attacking monsters gave him six stamina potions, enough to build three Tier 3 defensive towers.
"Come on, let's explode!"
Full of anticipation, Liu Huasheng swung his construction hammer as soon as his stamina reached 200.
In less than two minutes, Liu Huasheng had built a Tier 3 Corrosion Arrow Tower, whose magical ability was Mind Corrosion!
The attack effect of the Corrosive Arrow Tower is Corrosive Arrow, which reduces the physical defense of targets hit by it.
The magical ability [Mind Corruption] allows the Corrupting Arrow to simultaneously reduce the target's magical defense!
"This tower is so-so, let's come again!"
Liu Huasheng quickly drank two more bottles of stamina potion, and in less than three minutes, he built another Tier 3 defensive tower!
This Tier 3 defensive tower is actually a [Piercing Arrow Tower].
Moreover, its magical ability is also the [Cloud Piercing Arrow]!
"Another piercing arrow tower? If you're so capable, build a third one too!"
Liu Huasheng felt that his luck hadn't been very good these two times. He drank the last two bottles of stamina potion and built the tower again. Surprisingly, he actually built another Tier 3 arrow tower!
Its name is [Rapid Arrow Tower], with a base attack speed of 3.0. The tower is inscribed with verses such as "The horse is as fast as Lu Bu's Red Hare, the bow is as swift as thunder" and "The shadow follows the flowing water, the light is as fast as falling stars". Its magical ability is [Meteor Arrow Rain].
[Meteor Shower: When a Rapid Arrow Tower launches an attack, there is a small chance to trigger Meteor Shower. Once triggered, a shower of arrows, like a meteor shower, will fall from the sky, dealing a brief saturation attack to a small area!]
"This amazing ability is not bad, but it summoned three arrow towers in a row. Is it trying to strengthen my arrow tower matrix?"
With this thought in mind, Liu Huasheng decisively opened the information panel of the arrow tower matrix. With a slight operation, the three newly built Tier 3 arrow towers disappeared instantly. Not far away, the arrow tower matrix flashed with light, and the central main tower quickly rose to 50 meters. Three more rocket launch towers were added on both sides, making it an arrow tower matrix composed of 11 arrow towers!
Its rank has been raised to the fifth rank.
Although it's called an arrow tower matrix, its real name is still [Multiple Arrow Towers]!
Name: Multi-Arrow Tower Tier: 5
Durability: 50000
Attack: 150
Attack range: 300 meters; Attack speed: 1.0
Attack type: Physical, bombardment attack effect: [Multi-attack], each attack launches eight tracking missiles to bombard enemies within range.
Amazing Ability 1: [Return of All Arrows]
Amazing Ability Two: [Advanced Killing], 4566/10000 —
Amazing ability three: [Rocket launch] (manned rocket)
Special Ability Four: [Tracking Missile]
Special Ability 5: [Volley of Arrows], currently has 10000/10000 arrow-borne missiles.
Note 1: Other magical abilities are hidden. After the Multi-Arrow Tower is upgraded to Tier 6, a sixth magical ability can be randomly unlocked.
Explanation 2 —
"A level 5 tower with only 150 attack power! This should be the original Multi-Arrow Tower's stats. Even if it can fire 8 arrows at a time, its area-of-effect damage is only average, and its maximum damage per second is just over 1200. Its single-target attack is even worse! As expected, a god-tier tower in the early game becomes useless in the mid-to-late game!"
"Fortunately, my weapon possesses a magical ability: tracking missiles ensure every attack hits. Even with only one target, the bombardment effect stacks, maintaining a stable damage per second of 1200. Combined with the bombardment effect, its area-of-effect attacks become even stronger, and it can also grow stronger through kills." —
"The fifth amazing ability is a barrage of arrows? Although it's not as good as a meteor shower, it's not bad either. Before, a barrage of arrows was just a small-scale attack, just ten thousand arrows. It was impressive, but each target could only take one hit, so it was actually quite useless. But now it's missiles. If a barrage of arrows is used, it'll be carpet bombing. The scene will definitely be spectacular."
Liu Huasheng silently imagined the scene of ten thousand missiles bombarding the area, and felt his blood boil; the scene must have been extremely exciting.
"Strike while the iron is hot, let's continue to strengthen the arrow tower matrix!"
Liu Huasheng ran out of stamina and could no longer build the tower, but he still had one [Giant Ant Nest Challenge Scroll].
After Liu Huasheng used it, a void rift suddenly opened in mid-air a thousand meters away from Huaxia Dragon City.
The void rift was actually connected to the giant ant nest!
Two-haired donkey Afu suddenly appeared in front of Liu Huasheng and said, "Start the Giant Ant Nest Challenge. The challenge lasts for 100 minutes. During the challenge, 30,000 Berserker Giant Ants will quickly spawn from the Giant Ant Nest. The Berserker Giant Ants are level 1 with 100 health points and will launch a relentless attack on my Huaxia Dragon City!"
"Successfully completing the challenge after 100 minutes will earn you a random treasure chest. Defeating the Berserker Giant Ant also gives you a chance to obtain loot!"
Liu Huasheng gazed at the void rift appearing in the distance and said, "Thirty thousand level one monsters are just cannon fodder, perfect for the arrow tower matrix to farm kills!"
