Chapter 107: Chapter 59: Let me savor it again!_2

Following that, a continuous stream of Originium Slugs, their bodies covered in spikes, began emerging from within the red doorframe.

Just as the Originium Slugs were about to reach the middle line, Amiya, who stood on the high platform, waved her sleeves and summoned an energy wave from the void.

Crack!

The energy wave smashed onto an Originium Slug, instantly obliterating one.

Then she raised her hand again, ending the second Originium Slug.

However, this wave of monsters from the Red Door was not small, as many as seven or eight, and Amiya’s hand-raising had an inherent delay, causing her attack speed to struggle to keep up with the spawning speed of the monsters.

As the monsters were about to jump past Amiya towards the unguarded Blue Door behind her,

The next moment, a small icon to her right side suddenly lit up.

ZC clicked on the icon out of reflex, discovering it was the character’s skill.

[Tactical Chanting Y Type]

Description: Upon activation, increases attack speed by+30

With a light tap, Amiya was immediately surrounded by rings of energy waves, and her hand-raising speed visibly increased significantly.

Barely keeping up with the monsters nearing the line, she rapidly raised her hand several times and cleared the field in short order.

The first wave of monsters was successfully dealt with.

ZC, who originally had a tight frown, now showed a hint of something different in his eyes.

Even the comments started to trickle in with confusion.

"Eh?"

"This tower defense game... seems different from the ones ZC was playing just now, meow."

"There’s a subtle feeling to it that I can’t quite put my finger on, but if you say it’s tower defense, it feels somewhat... strange? It’s kind of like a mix of idle and action genres."

"I can’t say for sure, let me keep watching."

As the content showcased at the beginning wasn’t extensive, and since it wasn’t turn-based, it did not catch too much attention from the players.

But following that, the core elements of tower defense finally began to slowly reveal themselves.

The second wave of Originium Slugs were gearing up and slowly emerging from the Red Door.

And this time, the number was even denser.

Based on the experience from the first wave, it was clear that Amiya’s attack speed would not suffice.

Right then, the deployment points at the bottom right corner of the screen started to increase.

A row of new operators also entered the fray at this moment, entering the deployment prep interface at the bottom right, but all were dark grey, indicating they could not be deployed yet.

Each operator had their respective cost tagged above them, and it was not until there were enough deployment points that operators could be deployed.

As the Originium Slugs steadily approached, the auto-incrementing deployment points also reach 13 at this moment.

"Going by the introductory tutorial just now, I should prioritize deploying a vanguard operator... is it this one?" ZC hesitated among the series of little icons and found a girl with silver-grey hair and a pair of wolf ears.

Her deployment cost was also precisely 13.

Without a second word, he dragged her and deployed her on the mandatory path of the Originium Slugs.

"This operator seems to be positioned for close combat with the monsters, only able to attack the unit directly in front, and her attack power doesn’t seem too high."

"While Amiya takes out one with a slap, it takes her two or even three cuts to take one down," ZC commented while operating.

Soon enough, a new problem arose.

He found that this operator couldn’t seem to hold off the monsters.

Or rather, she could only hold off two monsters.

With more than ten Originium Slugs steadily approaching, she only stopped two, and the third monster had already begun to leak by her side, hardly dealt with by a backhand swipe from Amiya.

But the fourth and fifth monsters also began to cross the line, getting closer and closer to the Blue Door behind her.

Now the problem had come.

Only having deployed two operators, they still couldn’t hold back the monsters.

Even though his to-be-deployed list included capable warriors, they were all just shades of grey, completely un-clickable.

"No, hey, hey! What is up with the design of this game? Can’t get past the first level, huh?" ZC shouted as if trying to call the monsters back.

With so many viewers watching, and as a walkthrough-oriented streamer, failing to get past the first level would be quite embarrassing.

And just then, the skill icon of the wolf-eared girl appeared as well.

Like seeing a lifeline, ZC decisively chose to click.

The next moment, glints of golden light burst from the wolf girl, and swords from the heavens descended, with the rain of blades swiftly hitting the ground, encompassing the area around the wolf girl in a cross-shaped spread, immobilizing all the moving monsters in the vicinity and dealing them a blow.

That wasn’t all, ZC noticed the deployment points, which had been stretched thin, were now rapidly increasing!

In the blink of an eye, it jumped to over 20 points.

What was once a grey-themed deployment list was now almost entirely lit up!

"I say, so this is how it’s played?" ZC seemed to have an epiphany, quickly deploying another operator in front of the wolf girl, this one positioned as a defender.

This type of operator could block up to three monsters, and with strong defense and high health, could withstand a bit of damage from the monster attacks without falling.

With the immediate crisis averted, the following operations began to proceed more leisurely.

Essentially, it was Amiya swatting monsters with a hand from the void, the wolf girl slashing twice with her blade, and the defender brother upfront holding back the monster tide.

After the next round of deployment points had accumulated, ZC pulled out another operator with ears like a rabbit or fox and orange hair, with the position of a high-ground sharpshooter.

This sister seemed to be half-asleep, dragging out a lazy ’over~here~oh~’ in a quirky tone when deployed.
