Shi Xiaobai took a deep breath and felt a tiny bit of pressure. The first few waves of demonic beasts were not powerful, but there were many of them. Furthermore, they were attacking the Tree of Life without any regard for their lives, completely ignoring his attacks.
Shi Xiaobai did not need long to wipe out all the Nerubian Spiders, but he could not guarantee the safety of the Tree of Life during this period of time. Furthermore, from the situation just now, the initial Tree of Life was extremely weak.
Shi Xiaobai remembered seeing the exchange option of "upgrading the Tree of Life" in the Points Treasury. It was obvious that upgrading the Tree of Life was necessary if he wanted to defend it for a long time. A few Forest Wolves had already reduced the initial Tree of Life to dust. Later on, it was likely that the initial Tree of Life would be destroyed from just a touch.
However, this was not a problem Shi Xiaobai needed to consider. The problem he was facing now was how to protect the Tree of Life. If the Nerubian Spiders came within a meter of the Tree of Life, Shi Xiaobai could not use "Kun-Stewing Wok" on them, or he might accidentally damage the Tree of Life.
"I have to make them face This King's existence."
Shi Xiaobai's eyes flashed. If he could attract the aggro of the Nerubian Spiders, pulling them to the side and gathering them together, the matter would be much simpler.
However, how was he to attract their aggro?
As Shi Xiaobai slashed out Kun-Stewing Wok, he pondered calmly.
The Nerubian Spiders had already formed a fan-shaped formation. They were less than ten meters away from the Tree of Life.
The more dangerous the situation was, the calmer Shi Xiaobai became.
Suddenly, Shi Xiaobai's eyes lit up slightly. He turned around and leaped onto the gigantic tree trunk. Immediately, he came to the mouth of the Tree of Life's branch. Without any hesitation, he slashed out with his sword and sliced off a branch with green leaves on it. The Tree of Life's crown immediately trembled violently as it let out a soft cry.
"Sorry."
Shi Xiaobai patted the Tree of Life's trunk and leaped forward with the leafy branch in hand. Immediately, he jumped to the center of the Nerubian Spiders' fan-shaped formation.
The Nerubian Spiders let out fierce hisses and suddenly surrounded Shi Xiaobai. There were even a few Nerubian Spiders that could not resist pouncing forward!
"Indeed!"
Shi Xiaobai grinned. These Forest Wolves and Crypt Spiders were attracted by the rich aura of life contained in the Tree of Life. The branch in his hand contained the aura of life that these demonic beasts coveted.
Shi Xiaobai swept his sword a few times to kill the spiders that pounced at him. Turning around, he ran to the side. He did not run far, but tried his best to maintain the shortest safe distance between him and the Nerubian Spider.
The Nerubian Spiders did not have any intelligence. Their actions were completely based on their instincts. Indeed, they were attracted by the tree branch that was inches away from them. They had forgotten that there was a Tree of Life with an even richer life aura further away. They turned around to chase after Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai began circling around the Nerubian Spiders. From time to time, spiders would pounce at him. As Shi Xiaobai ran, he used Beginner Sword. Only when the Nerubian Spiders gradually gathered into a blob did Shi Xiaobai slash at the sky with Stewing Wok!
When the wok shaped sword Qi smashed down, the Nerubian Spiders huddled together, unable to escape for a moment. A large number of Nerubian Spiders were burnt to a crisp, letting out mournful cries.
After Shi Xiaobai slashed out with his sword, he charged into the middle of the Nerubian Spiders. The Nerubian Spiders that had scattered out of fear immediately screamed and gathered over brainlessly once again.
Shi Xiaobai used Crab Steps to charge out of the Nerubian Spiders' encirclement. Once again, he controlled the distance to pull the aggro. The Nerubian Spiders clearly did not learn from their mistakes. Their instincts were dominated by greed and desire.
Following that, Shi Xiaobai repeated the same pattern. He pulled aggro again and again, gathering the Nerubian Spiders into a blob before using Stewing Wok. Every time, the effects were outstanding.
Not long after, the last Nerubian Spider died with a scream. Shi Xiaobai heaved a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, these Nerubian Spiders were rather brainless, so he could pull aggro. If they were to crazily pounce at the Tree of Life, Shi Xiaobai would not be able to perfectly protect his life. The Tree of Life was just too weak, as weak as a baby.
Every time he killed a Nerubian Spider, his mind would ring out "Nerubian Spider killed, Tower Defense Points AA1". This left Shi Xiaobai somewhat puzzled. He originally believed that with the increase in the number of waves, the Tower Defense Points from killing demonic beasts would increase, but from the looks of it, that was not the case?
Or could it be that the Tower Defense Points would only increase after a few waves?
If that was the case, the rookies who arrived at 'Tower Defense' later would have to face powerful demonic beasts the moment they arrived. The points gained would not be faster, so the disadvantage was obvious. It was no wonder the sacred and authoritative voice said, "Please cherish the weakest waves of attacks in order to earn enough Tower Defense Points."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly curious about how many Tower Defense Points he had earned, but he did not know how to check.
However, just as Shi Xiaobai had such a thought, the sacred and authoritative voice immediately resounded in his mind.
"You currently have 380 Tower Defense Points."
Shi Xiaobai was slightly surprised. He never expected that he would have 380 points so quickly. In that case, he would be able to accumulate 500 points in the next wave of attacks. From the looks of it, he had a huge advantage.
Shi Xiaobai suddenly recalled that the silver-haired girl with glasses was guarding the eastern city gate alone. However, since none of the Nerubian Spiders had escaped, it was obvious that the girl was not in too much danger. It was unknown if she had finished them all.
Shi Xiaobai turned around and walked towards the eastern city gate. When he reached the entrance, he finally saw the silver-haired girl. There was nothing outside the city gate. From the looks of it, the Nerubian Spiders had died and been cleared by the assessment program.
And at this moment, the girl was standing at the city gate, engrossed in reading a book.
"You like reading so much?"
Shi Xiaobai asked softly.
The silver-haired girl looked up slightly and smiled with squinted eyes. Then, she nodded heavily. Her fondness for the book was evident in her words.
Shi Xiaobai did not disturb her any further. He turned around and walked into the city. There were still a few houses in the city that he had yet to explore.
However, just as Shi Xiaobai walked into the city, a golden beam of light descended from the sky and landed on the sacrificial altar!
The golden beam of light dissipated, revealing a handsome youth dressed in a loose Daoist robe. He had droopy eyelids and his hair was coiled into a bun. He held a horsetail whisk in his hand, making him look like a Daoist.
Clearly, this Daoist robed youth was the third rookie to be randomly sent to City # 1.
At the moment the Daoist robed youth descended, the resounding voice that resounded throughout the entire pocket world resounded once again!
"A tenth of the remaining trial-takers have arrived at the second level of the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower, 'Tower Defense Tower'. This level's Level Lord [Magical Beast Territory] will descend in three hours. The countdown begins!"
The Daoist robed youth was the last person in the leading group!
