My Chaotic City

Chapter 96 The Four-Story Sword Tower

In the past few days, Li Hanqiang has accumulated more than 1100 gold coins through the gold coins obtained from the in-game purchase tasks, the gold coins that naturally accumulated in the Chaos Treasury, and the rewards from the gold coin challenge.

"Not bad, not bad!" Li Hanqiang nodded, took out 100 gold coins, and bought the blueprint for a basic arrow tower. He planned to try his luck and see if he could synthesize a double sword tower.

This is mainly because I have obsessive-compulsive disorder; seeing an asymmetrical twin sword tower makes me feel uncomfortable.

"Once I've combined a Twin Swords Tower and the defensive towers are symmetrical, I'll immediately start the 14th wave of monster siege."

Li Hanqiang was thinking silently, and just as he was about to transform the basic arrow tower into a tower after it was placed, he suddenly remembered the lesson he had learned before.

"I think I said that without the Lucky Angel, playing Tower Transformation again would be a waste... But who knows when the Lucky Angel will surrender? We can't just keep waiting, so let's transform again and create a Twin Sword Tower!"

Li Hanqiang quickly convinced himself and began the tower transformation, but the result was an unsuccessful start. The tower transformation failed, and the newly built basic arrow tower collapsed directly.

"I refuse to accept this!" Li Hanqiang quickly bought another basic arrow tower, tried to transform it again, and failed again!

"Let's try again! I still have 800 gold coins!" Li Hanqiang continued to transform the tower, but failed again!

"What are the odds?" He gritted his teeth and continued to buy and change his bets, but failed three more times in a row.

"Are you kidding me? Five failed attempts to transform a tower in a row! That's a 3.125% chance. Am I really that unlucky?"

Li Hanqiang got carried away and kept changing things. This time he finally succeeded, but instead of creating a sword tower, he created a tower that could both openly attack and secretly stab.

"I refuse to believe I can't build a Twin Swords Tower. I'm willing to be a single dog, let's try again!" Li Hanqiang continued to build the tower, completely abandoning his previous plans.

This time, Lady Luck smiled upon him, and a sword tower appeared.

Li Hanqiang laughed and immediately combined the newly created sword tower with the previous one, which was successful.

"Not bad, not bad, finally we have two twin sword towers. They look good symmetrically arranged, but..."

Li Hanqiang glanced at the newly appeared Spear and Arrow Tower. Because of this one, he now had a total of 11 Spear and Arrow Towers, five on the left and six on the right, which was asymmetrical.

"Let's build another tower with both open and covert attacks. Once we get it, we'll have no other desires. We still have 400 gold coins; maybe we'll get it on our first try!"

Li Hanqiang convinced himself again and continued to buy the blueprints for building basic arrow towers and continue to transform the towers, but he failed four times in a row and ran out of money in Chaos Gold Control.

"Holy crap, this isn't scientific!" Li Hanqiang was shocked and squatted on the ground to calculate. According to the probability, the chance of failing to transform the tower is 50%, and the probability of encountering four consecutive failures is only 6.25%!

"I'm not willing to give up. I'll consider the previous attempts as 'padding' (i.e., using others as bait). The chance of failing five times in a row is only 3.125%. I'm betting I won't lose five times in a row. I'm going to combine the towers!"

Li Hanqiang made a tough decision: without being bold or productive, he chose to combine the two twin sword towers!

"Ding! You have successfully used the Tower Transformation talent. Your two Twin Sword Towers will be combined..."

"Ding! Synthesis successful! You have obtained a Level 3 Mutant Tower [Four-Story Sword Tower], congratulations!"

"Ding, system notification: A level 3 defense tower requires an area of ​​8 meters by 8 meters. Your four free Chaos Stone Slabs have been automatically assembled."

The ground trembled, and just as the system had indicated, the four empty Chaos Stone Slabs automatically assembled. Immediately afterward, the original two Twin Sword Towers disappeared, and on the assembled Chaos Stone Slabs, a four-story octagonal pavilion suddenly appeared. This pavilion was as tall as 30 meters, and sword shadows swirled around it like swimming fish, giving it a distinctly Xianxia (fantasy martial arts) feel.

"A level 3 tower!" Li Hanqiang breathed a long sigh of relief, looking up at the sky and exclaiming, "It wasn't easy! I've finally proven my looks wrong; the level 3 tower is here!"

Four-Story Sword Tower: Mutant Defense Tower, Level 3 Defense Tower, Special Defense Tower

Attack range: 300 meters

Durability: 40000

Attack Feature 1: The four-story sword tower can simultaneously unleash four intersecting sword energies per second, attacking targets within a 300-meter range. Each sword energy can inflict piercing damage, dealing 80 points of damage to the first target, and reducing the damage by 10 points for each subsequent target pierced, up to a maximum of eight targets.

Attack Feature 2: The four-story sword tower has a small chance to deal additional damage with the combined attack of two swords, dealing 2000 points of true damage to a single target. There is also an extremely small chance to deal damage with the combined attack of four swords, dealing 4000 points of true damage to the target.

"As expected of a level 3 tower, with a range of 300 meters, and the added dual-sword combination and quad-sword combination features. It would be even better if it didn't take up four Chaos Stone Slabs." Li Hanqiang nodded repeatedly, quite pleased with himself. This pleasure was not because of the attributes of the four-story sword tower, but because of its appearance.

This defensive tower looks incredibly cool! It has a fantasy/martial arts vibe that's pleasing to the eye.

"Hahaha, a level three tower! City Lord, you're amazing! City Lord, you're mighty! Shall we start the monster siege now?" The chubby man's voice rang out as he ran to Li Hanqiang's side and began to flatter him.

Upon hearing this, Li Hanqiang's smile froze. After transforming the tower, he consumed a total of 150 points of Chaos Energy and 1100 gold coins, leaving his Chaos Treasury empty!

If the Chaos Treasury is empty, then there's no way to rely on the little demons to repair the city gates, block the gates, and persuade the wild monsters to surrender. Starting a monster siege is extremely uneconomical.

Li Hanqiang slapped his forehead and said, "Tomorrow, let's open it tomorrow!"

"Huh? Wait until tomorrow..." The chubby man looked disappointed.

Xiang Mang, looking at the four-story sword tower, said, "When will we add a Blazing Flame Tower, a Spear and Arrow Tower, and then a four-story sword tower? The defensive towers are asymmetrical right now, it looks so awkward!"

He actually has obsessive-compulsive disorder!

Li Hanqiang remained silent and quickly mounted his golden warhorse, heading towards the demon mountain cave.

He was afraid he wouldn't be able to resist playing the game again, as it's easy to get carried away with it.

Soon, Li Hanqiang arrived at the Demon Mountain Cave. There he saw the giant iron-clawed shrimp coiled up next to a shack. A wooden sign hung at the entrance of the shack, which read "Fan Knight". That was the Fan Knight's shack.

At this moment, Fan Knight has already logged off, and the character is AFK in the shack.

Not far away, the Ignition Sword Saint was still instructing Zhang Deshuai, trying to guide him towards becoming a melee mage.

Li Hanqiang rode his golden warhorse to them, feeling quite emotional.

He originally planned to train Zhang Deshuai as a melee mage in his spare time, but now the Ignite Sword Saint has completely taken over the job and is very enthusiastic about it.

"This Fire Sword Saint is definitely mischievous at heart!" Li Hanqiang muttered to himself.

"Lord of the City!" Upon seeing Li Hanqiang arrive on his golden warhorse, the Sword Saint of Ignition's eyes immediately lit up. "A golden horse! This mount is amazing, so cool! It's countless times more stylish than Zhen Deqiang's horse. Where can I get one? I want one!"

Zhang Deshuai was quite envious, saying, "Good horse, good horse. If I had one, it would be so much easier to gather Ganoderma lucidum in the back mountain."

Li Hanqiang had come to show off on his golden horse, and now he was quite pleased with himself. He said, "This golden warhorse was prepared for you. You've won a great battle, so it's time to give you some rewards. We don't have anything else, so let's have the golden warhorse. One for each of you, but there's only one right now, so one person can use it for now. Once the Fan Knight comes online, you can distribute them yourselves."

"Really!" The Sword Saint of Ignition was overjoyed and quickly said, "The City Lord is righteous and generous!"

Zhang Deshuai smiled slightly and pulled the Ignite Sword Saint aside, saying, "When Shrimp Head comes online, let's play rock-paper-scissors to decide who gets the Golden Horse, okay?"

"Haha, alright, I'm an expert at rock-paper-scissors. You wait, I'll log off right now and call Fan Knight back up!"
