Chapter 137

The notice also contained a coordinate.

Now there are two battle plans.

One is to strike first, the other is to defend and counterattack.

If we play it safe, defending and counterattacking is definitely the safest.

After all, there are 5 defense towers within the territory, and standing on them is very safe.

However, in this test, the time taken to kill enemies is also a factor in scoring.

The faster the kills, the higher the score.

So when facing the first few waves of weak enemies, it's still better to deal with them quickly.

Moreover, each wave only gives 30 minutes to resolve.

If the enemies wander around the territory, we might fail to find them and miss the time limit, ending the test.

It's still best to strike first.

"Everyone bring all your tools as backup, and bring all the ropes too. Follow me to the north?"

"What are the ropes and tools for? Do we need to build something on the spot?" Gu Qing asked.

"No, we might need to capture prisoners."

"Aren't you going to speed-kill them, my lord?"

Zhao Chi said, "Capturing prisoners gives extra points, so even if it takes a bit longer, it's fine. And there's another benefit — all these prisoners will be ours, and we can sell them for money later."

Of course, capturing prisoners is harder than killing.

And it's more dangerous, more troublesome.

Higher scores naturally come with it.

Being able to capture enemies is definitely a sure profit, no loss.

Last time, the goblins were worth at least 2 gold coins each.

This time, if we capture them, we'll get prisoners worth at least 5 gold coins each. If we're lucky, we might catch ones worth over 10 gold coins directly, and his loan can be paid off.

Gu Qing nodded: "I understand. Everyone bring the ropes and follow the lord."

The coordinate wasn't far.

Zhao Chi moved at a moderate pace and reached the mist wall to the north at 10:25.

"It's just ahead, everyone get ready. Enemies will appear in 5 minutes."

"Yes!"

The 20 female soldiers already had their spears ready, prepared to strike at any moment.

The 60 female craftsmen were also ready. Though they were in charge of support, they could still do their part.

Countdown 1 minute.

Countdown 30 seconds.

Countdown 3, 2, 1.

【First Stage Begins!】

"All units, attention — enemies, incoming!"
