Poison God's Heritage

"Seventy-two hours of prep time, what do you think that would mean?" the commentator addressed the two next to him.

"Well, I would suppose it means that the next phase will be difficult. I have to admit, for Du Shen to have managed to use his time this efficiently, and manually build more fortresses to match his first one was something out of this world. His efficiency and use of limited resources to their most optimal level is praiseworthy," Eccentric Long complimented.

"I also have to agree with that, where most others would have just tried to build around the base, he kept his integrity and decided to go above and beyond normal and build three more similar forts to keep his base secure. With this much defense, I would find it hard that anyone could break through," Xiao Du said.

"Indeed, he also made a very fun-looking weapon, the turret that he handmade was able to defeat the flying mobs. After all several cultivators had already lost due to their inability to take down the flying creatures already," the commentator said.

"Bar a few who already took note of the possibility that a flying monster could appear, the majority didn't have enough time or power to retaliate or at least build defenses fast enough, their base took a great hit for it and it cost them the trial. Now, however, it is an entirely new ordeal, with the time being three times longer, we can expect a far rougher wave," Eccentric Long added.

"The wave is about to begin, let's see how this goes then," the commentator said as he displayed several screens at the same time with Shen Bao's screen being the biggest.

Not more than ten seconds, the audience began gasping, not at the massive beasts and almost infinite-looking number of them. But the bases were destroyed in less than ten seconds from the wave starting.

Not even ten seconds had gone by before more than a dozen base was destroyed, the loose barricades and weak protection around them were the prime reason for the loss, not to mention the awful positioning of turrets and troops.

However, in the main monitor, Du Shen's screen had a different experience.

Explosions, nothing but explosions, and the sound of lightning and bullets blowing up in the distance.

At this rate, I might not last the entire day before all of my ammunition is exhausted. But it's fine, I'm not staying still as I'm still using my clones to rapidly craft and make more ammunition and explosives that puppets come over and collect.

The majority of the puppets are manning the cannons all around the base and along the main paths.

The turrets ricked with unstoppable fury at every beast that emerged, cindering, burning, freezing and electrifying any that dared step too close.

While the endless cannon fire set the fields ablaze. Explosive shells bore through the monsters, raising endless curtains of dust and debris. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Blood and body parts spread all over the battlefield, but that wasn't it.

The number of creatures emerging from the gate was absurdly high, enough that even I had doubts if I could clear it.

They were so many of them that they just tanked the shots of the turrets, or even died crossing, they were so many of them that missing a cannon shot would actually be a miracle.

But I was not about to give up on all of this. I made it with a lot of effort and wasn't going to just watch it all burn and crumble.

"Build me more turrets and barricades, I also need a few more traps, pits with spikes and hurdles, anything I can afford right now," I said to the merchant.

"With how fast you're killing them, it would be even harder to spend all of your points, take your pick of my wares," he said.

And I began choosing anything that could stop these incoming beasts.

From talismans to improved warring puppets, even some allied beasts of our own that could act like guardians.

I even bought a cloud, yes a literal cloud that moved around the territory and rained down with lightning upon the enemies.

It was an interesting thing to see, enough that I wanted to analyze how it worked, but I didn't have time.

Thankfully, with puppets protecting the minigun turret in the middle of each path, the beasts always decided to avoid toppling them down. And the miniguns did the bulk of the work taking down the enemies. With a lot of them gathered up, the bullets couldn't miss, and I didn't even need the gun to fully kill anything, breaking their bones and their paws and legs was enough for me to slow them down.

Soon, they reached the landmine area. Which was the last thing they could reach before the moat around the fortress.

The first creature that stepped on a landmine had its entire body evaporated, and that wasn't all, the poison spread and began moving across the battlefield. Increasing in density with each and every beast that detonated more of the landmines.

All around the field, you could see green explosions rupturing the ground itself, lifting bodies and half-mangled corpses dozens of feet in the air. The lack of wind helped the poison from the landmines to thicken and stay in place, where more beasts walked into the cloud with madness in their eyes.

Steel Jaw Wolves, winged tigers, armored manticores, and many demonic beasts would move through the cloud, infusing themselves with devastating poison then crumbling a few steps away from the moat.

The very few that were either lucky enough to not take in too much poison, or were by some chance or miracle resistant to this type of poison managed to reach the moat.

Without any other path forward but to swim, they dove into the moat, burning their bodies due to the electrifying current running through the moat and then boiling over because even the moat itself was heavily poisoned.

More of the beasts moved to their death and fell inside the moat dying in droves, however, that wasn't all good.
