Due to this reason, Shi Xiaobai had no choice but to stay even though he had 500 points. However, he did not show any abnormalities. All he did was bid farewell to the silver-haired girl with a smile. Only when the silver-haired girl transformed into a golden beam of light and left did Shi Xiaobai turn around and walk back into the city.
When he returned to the city, he realized that two rookie trial-takers had come in such a short period of time.
They were strangers to Shi Xiaobai. Shi Xiaobai nodded in greeting before informing Liu Yu that he was about to leave the city.
Liu Yu naturally did not forcefully hold him back. However, his heart was somewhat heavy. The four of them who first came to City # 1 were clearly the cream of the crop among the rookies. However, even though they had guarded the first five waves, they nearly had an accident. And with Shi Xiaobai and the silver-haired girl's departure, Adonis had used the exit command to return to the human world.
He was the only one left. Maybe there would be rookies in the future, but what would happen after he left? How could the weaker rookies who would face the onslaught of demonic beasts that were stronger than the first five waves be able to defend?
Perhaps the cities would be destroyed one after another, right?
Then he might as well take the opportunity to destroy the other cities and gather all the rookies in one city. This would allow the rookies that were teleported to the same city in the future. Then, by relying on the advantage in numbers, they could defend until most people left.
The earlier the scattered sand was gathered together, the stronger the walls would be.
"Sigh, This Penniless Priest is too benevolent. The assessment program's goal is survival of the fittest. It's natural selection, so how can it be fair?"
Liu Yu sighed and straightened his expression. He turned around and walked towards the two rookies that had just arrived. He pointed two fingers at one of them and said loudly, "Benefactor, This Penniless Priest sees your glabella turning black. That's an ominous omen!"
…
…
Shi Xiaobai naturally did not head to the third level as Liu Yu imagined. Instead, he walked into the Points Treasury. In the Points Treasury, he had previously discovered several special exchange items, and as a result, he had many wonderful ideas.
Previously, it was just a thought, but due to the sudden appearance of this, Shi Xiaobai's wonderful ideas suddenly had the need to be realized.
Shi Xiaobai found a line of text that he had previously seen in an extremely remote spot on the left wall.
"Teleportation Scroll: Randomly teleport to another main city, but you will be treated as an intruder. Requires 20 Defense Points."
Shi Xiaobai grinned and exchanged for 24 teleportation scrolls. Then, he exchanged for a return scroll that cost 30 Tower Defense Points. Immediately, he spent 510 Tower Defense Points.
Yes, Shi Xiaobai had chosen option two. He had personally destroyed fifteen cities!
You might not believe it, but before he appeared, Shi Xiaobai already had such thoughts when he saw the teleportation scroll in the Points Treasury.
Defending the city for thirty waves was also a very interesting choice, but the possibility of success was very small. After all, at the later stage, those who could leave had already left, and those who were left were the weaklings who had been eliminated by the "survival of the fittest". Relying on these people to defend the city for thirty waves was no different from a fool's dream.
Of course, this was not a reason why Shi Xiaobai, who had always been fearless, would not choose.
In fact, Shi Xiaobai had been in a dilemma over the two choices for a very, very long time. If there was a difference in the rewards between the two choices, Shi Xiaobai would immediately choose the one with the higher reward, but unfortunately, the two choices were B-level rewards.
Only when the countdown began did Shi Xiaobai choose the option of destroying fifteen cities.
Shi Xiaobai's reason was actually very simple. That was …
I'm not telling you for now!
…
…
City # 19.
At this moment, there were only four rookies defending the city.
Heartless said to the short-haired youth beside him, "I have enough points. Shall I make a move first?"
The short-haired youth was the Zeus rookie that had previously 'ganged up' on Shi Xiaobai. He nodded at Heartless and said, "Alright, I'm also short of thirty points. I can leave in the next wave of attacks. Boss, go ahead. I'll catch up to you very soon."
Heartless acknowledged and was about to leave when the other two rookies standing beside him suddenly said anxiously.
"If all of you leave, what do we do?"
"There's only the two of us left. How are we to defend the next wave?"
The short-haired youth said in a deadpan manner, "Very soon, there will be other rookies being teleported up."
A bespectacled rookie said with a frown, "I wonder when they will come up. Furthermore, the ones that come later will definitely be very weak. They won't be able to defend it."
Another slightly plump rookie hurriedly said, "The two of us already have about 200 points. If the two of you stay behind to defend another wave or two, the two of us will be able to leave. If the two of you leave and the Tree of Life is destroyed, the two of us will have to start all over again."
The short-haired youth immediately said with a sneer, "So what? What has that got to do with us? "
The slightly plump youth's expression stiffened as he said, "We have at least defended against two waves of demonic beast attacks together. It can be said that we have gone through thick and thin together. As long as the two of you stay behind for about ten minutes, we will definitely repay you later!"
At this moment, Heartless suddenly said, "If the two of us stay behind to help the two of you accumulate enough points, what will happen to the rookies that come later when the four of us leave together? According to your theory, shouldn't the two of you stay behind to help the rookies that come later accumulate enough points? "
The slightly plump rookie's expression turned ugly, but he was unsure how to answer.
The bespectacled rookie stammered, "This … this is different …"
The short-haired youth said with a sneer, "Different? What a joke. You think too highly of yourselves. To us, you are just strangers. No one owes anyone anything. "
A hint of anger flashed in the slightly plump rookie's eyes as he said angrily, "If not for the two of us, the two of you might not have been able to defend until now. Don't you have any gratitude in your hearts?"
The short-haired youth gave a disdainful smile and said, "What a joke. If not for the two of you fighting for points, Boss Heartless and I would have long left."
The slightly plump and bespectacled rookies were extremely infuriated. They pointed at the short-haired youth and were momentarily at a loss for words. They wanted to curse and attack, but they knew that they were no match for him.
Heartless sighed and ignored the duo. He walked to the short-haired youth's side and used a voice that the other two could not hear to whisper into the short-haired youth's ear, "Be careful. You might not be able to hold on after I leave. Leave immediately once you reach 500 points. This trial can't take care of anyone else."
The short-haired youth nodded and said matter-of-factly, "Of course!"
Heartless did not speak further as he suddenly transformed into a golden beam of light that shot into the sky.
The short-haired youth glanced at the two rookies and was prepared to leave once he reached the required points.
The two rookies looked at the short-haired youth with angry eyes that contained a hint of resentment.
At this moment, a golden beam of light descended from the sky as a black-haired youth appeared on the sacrificial altar.
At the same time, an authoritative voice resounded in the trio's minds.
"An intruder has been randomly sent to City # 19. Please be prepared to defend!"
