Chapter 22

The range has also increased by 500 meters.

It also has a special enchantment ability that reduces the target's movement speed.

However, under the blessing of the Mythic Talent Twin Sacred Diti Flowers, it appears extremely terrifying!

[Cannon Tower]

[Grade: Advanced]

[Level 1: ]

[Health: 290 (Base Health 20 + "Diti Curse" + "Sacred Diti Blessing")]

[Attack: 29 (Base Attack 2 + "Diti Curse" + "Sacred Diti Blessing")]

[Defense: 29 (Base Defense 2 + "Diti Curse" + "Sacred Diti Blessing")]

[Range: 1500 meters (10x effectiveness!)]

[Modification: Cannon attacks come with an explosion effect, increasing damage by 50% (10x effectiveness!)]

The arrow tower has been modified into a cannon.

Power and energy replenishment are provided by dark energy,

but during the modification, a considerable amount of territory energy was consumed for the special alloys and gunpowder needed.

The effects are very significant,

with the "Sacred Diti Blessing," damage is permanently increased by 50%!

Once the level gets higher, the gap will become even more pronounced.

Su Yu was very satisfied with these two advanced defense towers.

However, he did not plan to continue modifying and enchanting them over the next two days.

The special effects are valuable for their uniqueness.

Ice arrows are suitable for dealing with agile enemies,

while cannons are suitable for dealing with massed human wave tactics.

To truly take down powerful enemies, one still needs to rely on arrow towers.

It's not that ice arrows and cannons are inferior to arrow towers,

but mainly because they are too difficult to upgrade, requiring massive amounts of territory energy without readily available materials.

Arrow towers, on the other hand, can be upgraded with the current materials,

and a Level 2 arrow tower can already match the attributes of a Level 1 cannon or ice arrow.

Although they lack special effects, they are easier to upgrade and have strong attack power.

From a long-term perspective, upgrading arrow towers and then modifying and enchanting them would reset their levels back to 1,

making the upgrades a waste.

But Su Yu's goal is the monster horde.

The scale of the monster horde is determined and matched based on the strength of the territory.

To achieve a good ranking, his target is the highest-scale monster horde: "Calamity."

Therefore, he must enhance his short-term strength.

With a firm resolve, Su Yu spent a massive amount of territory energy to upgrade all the ice arrow towers and cannon launchers directly to Level 3.

Under the blessing of the Mythic Talent, their attack power reached a terrifying 65 points!

With the enhancement of the Mythic Talent, their attack power reached a terrifying 65 points!

After dinner, this was the first time Su Yu had called Zhang San to ask the farmers to work overtime.

"My lord!" The burly man bowed respectfully, awaiting orders.

"Can you, in two days, upgrade the remaining 180 arrow towers in the territory and the wild to Level 5 by the day after tomorrow?" Su Yu asked.

Hearing this, Zhang San was taken aback for a moment but firmly replied, "Yes, we can!"

Hearing this, Zhang San was taken aback for a moment, then firmly said, "I can!"

Su Yu dismissed Zhang San and continued to ponder.

A Level 5 arrow tower has a base attack of 5 points, which, under the Mythic Talent, can reach 72 points!

Such a terrifying attack power, combined with a dense number of towers,

would force even Sylph and Elodie to retreat.

An attack power of 72 points is a terrifying number that only a Level 30+ arrow tower could achieve,

and there are as many as 180 of them,

so even if they are just ordinary-grade defense towers,

a Level 10 Mythic hero would have to avoid their sharp edge.

If the range wasn't so exaggerated, Sylph and Elodie wouldn't be afraid.

But with the 10x special effect bonus, the exaggerated range, and the powerful force,

they can indeed force a Mythic to retreat.

One can even force back a myth!

As night fell, the peasants toiled, working overtime to upgrade the arrow defense towers.

Su Yu did not build more residences to increase the population cap or recruit more peasants because of their hard work.

Buildings have a limit, and it is difficult for friendly units to destroy them.

Although he had only built 250 structures in his territory, with a limit of 500, he still needed to consider the future.

Su Yu sat on the edge of the bed,

staring at the completely depleted energy balance of the territory: 0.

"In the next two days, I can still get 4000 territory energy. I need to use it sparingly."

"I'll save it for any possible changes during the monster wave."

A Level 3 Lord Crystal provides 2000 territory energy per day,

and Su Yu planned to use the next two days' worth to deal with the monster wave.

No one could predict if there would be any sudden changes during the monster wave,

and at that time, he could use the territory energy to directly build defense towers in the missing spots.

The dragon scales placed in the Trading House had not sold for a long time,

and as the monster wave approached, no one was willing to spend a large amount of territory energy on something they couldn't use at this stage.

Rather than selling them at a low price, Su Yu decided to take them off the market for his own future use.

"Lord Su Yu, please close your eyes."

Suddenly, Silvia's gentle voice came from outside the door.

"What's going on?" Su Yu asked as he closed his eyes.

Hearing footsteps approaching,

Su Yu said with a smile, "I told you to play around today, but don't come back so late."

"You can open your eyes now!"

"If you don't come home before dusk, I'll worry." Su Yu lectured Silvia as he opened his eyes.

But the moment he opened his eyes, he was stunned.

A bow, interwoven with blue and black, was placed in front of him,

exuding an ancient aura.

The bowstring was made from dragon sinew,

and the grip was crafted from the inverted scales of a dragon, alternating between black and blue.

The bow's nock was a red eye, with black flames burning within, looking very strange.

This was the condensed eye of the [Dark Flame Dragon].

"This..." Su Yu, who had been preoccupied with territory matters recently,

had forgotten what Silvia had said earlier.

She had promised to give him an epic-level bow after killing the [Dark Flame Dragon].

"Thank you!"

With a heart full of excitement, Su Yu accepted the bow with both hands.
