I Don't Agree to the Terms

Chapter 860 456: Game Genre Switched Directly to Tower Defense_2

Little White heard this and quickly ran away.

"This guy is getting more and more mischievous," Gu Shanhai couldn't help but grumble.

He had plants growing all over him, but it chose to nibble the top of his head, calculating the position so that if Gu Shanhai reverted to his true form as a Fluorescent Giant, his hair would go from a dense forest to a Mediterranean style.

"Damn, I don't know what's wrong with this deer, it's getting more and more wicked."

Gu Shanhai didn't really mind Little White being wicked, as long as it wasn't directed at him.

It's like watching a show, he enjoys it, but not when he's the show.

He's pretty obvious with that double standard.

"All I did was give it a shot of the enhanced Child Skill version earlier; it's holding a grudge," Gu Shanhai quickly realized why.

A while ago, he wanted Little White to have more meat, so he developed the Child Skill Gene Medicine Type 1 through his Martial Arts Divine Power. But Little White was paralyzed for a month and couldn't get up. Its deer calls lasted for half a month, and the rest of the month it was silent because it had no more strength to call out.

Fortunately, Azure Dragon came to feed it, allowing Little White to hold on.

So when Little White recovered, it went to munch on the flowers and trees on Gu Shanhai's head as revenge.

"Forget it. I have to modify the remaining Golden Bell Shield Gene Medicine Type 1 and Iron Shirt Gene Medicine Type 1, so after injecting them, they won't cause trouble for me," Gu Shanhai thought. If it really didn't work out, he would extend the duration. Originally, it required a month of digestion time, but he thought of changing it to a year so that there wouldn't be too much itching.

Indeed, Little White itched for a month.

This is only because it's Little White. Anyone else and they wouldn't need a month; an hour would be enough. It's just that the overwhelming pain in the middle would be unbearable, so this kind of thing is generally reserved for the protagonist. After all, a steadfast mind is a necessary trait for a protagonist, who don't go crazy from the pain.

If changed to a year, there would basically be no feeling, and it would quietly complete the transformation over the course of the year.

"Today... huh? What's this?"

Gu Shanhai sharply sensed a large number of beasts entering the range of the Air Wall.

Because of the Air Wall, Gu Shanhai's Spiritual Sense couldn't extend outward, nor did he plan to compete with "The First Epoch" head-on—it was bound to happen eventually.

"Seems like because the mouse didn't return, the great demon plans to probe further."

Gu Shanhai immediately recognized that this group of beasts was under the great demon's control, stronger than ordinary beasts.

"There's no sign of the half-demons, makes sense, this is a test, not a real direct attack."

The opponent controlled the beasts, making them into a beast tide.

Zhen Shi Village experiences a beast tide every five or six years, though the timing isn't fixed.

There are many reasons for a beast tide, like a strange treasure appearing in the mountains or unique natural treasures maturing, or if hunters kill too many beasts or demons are born, among others—all can lead to a beast tide.

So having one every five or six years isn't unusual. Given the world's energy level, especially with the shortened maturation cycle of unique natural treasures.

That's why sometimes people stumble across something like a red fruit. For example, the village chief was able to successfully break through the Blood Refining Stage by consuming a red fruit, which also originated from a beast tide.

Gu Shanhai didn't study the exact mechanics, he didn't care about the reasons for the beast tide. Anyway, this beast attack wasn't a normal beast tide.

The beast tide was immediately detected by Zhen Shi Village and under the command of Base Station Old Liu, they organized an orderly resistance.

However, they didn't have the villagers engage in physical combat. Instead, a large number of machine guns, grenades, and other modern military equipment launched the first wave of attacks.

This military equipment even included some thermal weapon treasures, though not in large quantities.

Gu Shanhai knew Base Station Old Liu was conserving resources. If they used up these high-quality consumables just to fight a bunch of ordinary monsters, what would they do about the elite monsters next?

"Did they drive all the beasts from within hundreds of miles?" Gu Shanhai furrowed his brow.

He wasn't sure about the beast density in the nearby forests, but given the continuous numbers, it was a lot.

The beast tide itself isn't terrifying. Besides, Zhen Shi Village already has quite a few cultivators, and as long as there aren't any demons involved, they can kill as many beasts as come their way. Moreover, the beast tide doesn't just affect Zhen Shi Village, but also all surrounding towns and villages, so the number of beasts each time isn't that much, ranging from several dozen to over a hundred.

Unlike this time, where just the current death toll exceeds a hundred.

In terms of killing efficiency, there aren't many species that can compete with players.

Fortunately, Zhen Shi Village lacks minerals or related resources. Otherwise, Base Station Old Liu could turn the place into a mechanized fortress.

"The first wave of beasts shouldn't be much of a problem; it's the elite monsters and half-demons they're cautious of, but..."

Gu Shanhai speculated that this beast tide was likely meant to deplete their resources, and if he wasn't mistaken, it could last until tomorrow before stopping.

As for where all these beasts came from, Gu Shanhai didn't care. It wasn't his concern how many monsters there were since it didn't involve him.

He didn't need to fight anyway.

"Tomorrow, it won't just be elite monsters and half-demons; there'll also be the great demon as the BOSS."

Gu Shanhai knew that from the opponent's cautious character, they planned to deplete resources first and then strike at the opportune moment, greatly increasing their chances of victory.

Instead of improving oneself, it's better to weaken the opposition.

"But the opponent probably underestimates Lan Qiushui; he's a basketball player, which is a combat profession." Gu Shanhai also laughed; they didn't know how outrageous these odd athlete players truly were.

In the first tier, there are two players taking the sports route, one in basketball, the other in tennis.

"It would be even better if it were the tennis player here." Gu Shanhai knew that guy was practically a replica of Ryoma Echizen, with an innate talent of a sublime realm, a genius-type player, unlike Lan Qiushui, who was more of a hardworking player.

His original innate talent had long been washed away, replaced with a talent more fitting for basketball.

So at the moment, Lan Qiushui might be even more capable in battle than Base Station Old Liu.

Of course, Base Station Old Liu hasn't made a move yet either, mostly relying on tools for attack. These tools benefit from his talents and passives since they were crafted by his hands.

These tools aren't Base Station Old Liu's true combat power; his real strength lies in his own body, a fusion of technology and cultivation, that is his life-bound treasure.

"If it were Shura or Bizarre Two here, they might already be handling a thousand monsters each."

"But if it were truly those two, this level of foes wouldn't even be enough for their warm-up."

Despite how Bizarre Two seemed inept earlier, it was only because they encountered something like the Eye of Deathly Silence, a being from the void. Otherwise, they'd have started wreaking havoc long ago. Ultimately, Gu Shanhai had brought them into a too-high energy level world, so it was Gu Shanhai's fault.

Put in a world of a similar energy level to theirs, Bizarre Two could directly crush through their destiny fighting system.

"Never mind them, I should just focus on myself; these small monsters aren't even a threat." Gu Shanhai shook his head and quickly stopped paying attention to the beasts, returning to his research.

If these beasts even get near Zhen Shi Village's entrance, that means the firepower wasn't fierce enough.

Base Station Old Liu probably has at least a hundred arsenals on him. The power of these thermal weapons isn't worth much to him; in the opposing players' space, there might be several hundred production lines supporting his spending.

There's no need to worry about raw materials either. Like Mr. Qin and others, he likely dabbles in multiple world trades, holding certain shares, so he doesn't have to worry about lacking raw materials for ammunition production.
