Chapter 1867 - 1866: Qin Feng’s Plan!

Qin Feng had a premonition.

This map might be the perfect way to secure victory!

Especially after witnessing Ling Guardian’s "Level 5 Tide," he became more determined in this belief.

"Level 5 Tide" is far stronger than he imagined.

Both the enemy’s size and their power have greatly increased.

For instance, the half-beasts in the "Limitless Tide" now wear sturdy armor, and the skeleton ghosts emit a golden hue; when they swing their giant axes, sword light flashes.

In conclusion.

Ordinary soldiers are far from adequate to handle them.

Looking at it this way, Ghost Lady’s decision was very wise; she only guarded against the "Level 1 Tide," without taking unnecessary risks.

Ling previously accumulated wealth, allowing him to build more barracks and defense towers, giving him a greater advantage.

More importantly, his talent power differs from Ghost Lady’s.

Ghost Lady’s talent turns soldiers into "Bomb Ghost Soldiers," while Ling’s talent can use "Dragon Heart" power to further enhance his soldiers to better complement his "delay" strategy.

Although Qin Feng has accumulated many soldiers and archers with Ice Arrow support, boasting strong offensive power.

But with his current strength, it’s impossible to guard against the "Level 5 Tide," let alone his goal of not just defending but achieving an S rating for perfection!

This map is the method.

He has deciphered the map, needing only to build defense towers at the marked locations according to the "Maze Moat Wall" design; the enemies’ surge will be unimaginable!

And the foundation for constructing the map’s maze moat wall is bricks!

He bought a huge pile of bricks from the Ti Yun Peak’s general shop, enough to construct the maze!

Of course.

There’s one prerequisite—need for a venue!

The maze design on this map involves the entire Sky Termination City, four gates and four camps.

For example, he must persuade the people guarding the other three gates.

This is also the reason he wants to convince Ling.

Not for anything else, only to quickly complete the task of guarding Sky Termination City, find Nami, and then return to Vine Dragon Mountain.

Of course.

He has already taken care of Wan Shi, Yin Shou and the four of them guarding the North Gate.

Qin Feng arrived at the North Gate Camp.

Wan Shi and the four immediately came to greet him, each with a face full of joy.

Since Qin Feng sent the Golden General to guard here, their work has become much easier, easily defending against the just now wave of "Level 1 Tide."

"Young Master Qin, we have something we want to discuss with you." Wan Shi said, a bit embarrassed, "You see, with the Golden General, it’s much easier for us to defend the city; we still have some money on hand and want to try attacking the ’Second-level Frenzy’ with confidence that with the Golden General’s help, we can hold it."

"Yes, yes!" Yin Shou quickly followed, "It’s not just for ourselves; it’s also for you! We also want to elevate the gate defense level, which may be related to the overall rating!"

"We also believe there is this possibility; to achieve a perfect rating, the combined gate defense levels should be higher, therefore, in some sense, we’re like grasshoppers on the same string...uh, a bad metaphor, we should say we’re people in the same boat."

"..."

He understood what they meant.

Initially, he did consider that if all four gates could defend against "Level 9 Tide," the rating could reach the highest.

But later he discovered the rating wasn’t just about this.

He observed Wan Shi, Ghost Lady, and Ling’s gate defense situations.

Strictly speaking, Ghost Lady’s defense method during the "Level 1 Tide" was optimal; one man guards, none can pass, but there’s no rating.

Ling, with his excellent control and talent ability, can use minimal troops and defense towers to ward off the "Level 5 Tide" attack, which is considered excellent, not to mention an S-rating, at least it should be A-level.

But neither of them received any rating.

So.

Qin Feng increasingly felt that ratings aren’t only based on performance, methods, or defense level.

There must be a most important aspect like—time and slaughter!

When he was in school playing online games and running dungeons to achieve rating performance, one factor was the clearance time on the dungeon, and another was the number of mobs killed along the way.

Otherwise, if based purely on performance, too many factors are involved.

So.

If Qin Feng was thinking correctly, the final rating for the Sky Termination City’s defense task should also be related to time and slaughter!

And from this map layout, it can achieve greater range and area for slaughtering enemies!

"Want a better rating? No problem." Qin Feng smiled and said, "You only need to follow my arrangements, and we can achieve the highest rating; as for the ’Second-level Frenzy’ you want, don’t worry about it, we’re going big, aiming for all ’Level 9 Tide’!"

"Ah? You’ll also help us reach ’Level 9 Tide’??"

Wan Shi and the four were excited.

But Yin Shou quickly calmed down, saying, "Impossible, the real expenditure comes later; it’s not possible to get us also to ’Level 9 Tide’, we should be satisfied with guarding ’Second-level Frenzy.’

"Yes, yes, we only want to guard ’Second-level Frenzy,’ we don’t have such high ambitions, just need to help us guard ’Second-level Frenzy’..." Fu Mo, Black Dragon also echoed.

They worried Qin Feng was merely giving them the false promise; they preferred more practical assurance.

"..."

Seeing he couldn’t persuade them, Qin Feng had no choice but to say, "Alright, let me tell you something concrete! Helping you guard ’Second-level Frenzy’ is impossible; I plan to reorganize the array here. If you agree, the rating rewards obtained will be many and will exceed rewards like those for ’Level 2 Tide,’ ’Level 3 Tide’; if you disagree, you can choose to withdraw from our cooperation, the two billion I previously gave you was already reasonable, you choose."

"This, this..."

Wan Shi and the four were frustrated again.

They knew relying on their skills alone, that two billion wouldn’t withstand several waves of attack, moreover a lot was spent repairing the city walls and gates during the previous battle.

Even if they had another two billion or three billion, they still couldn’t hold to the end.

But if agreed, who knows if Qin Feng’s drawn plan would be realized or if there might be a reluctance to fulfill promises...

"Of course, still as previously discussed, I’ll reserve your spots at the North Gate, only transferring control to me; you can cancel my control anytime and reclaim your Tiger Talisman and Lion Token, how about it?" Qin Feng said.
