National Tower Defense Survival: Start Awakening Fusion System

95: Sculptors and Five Elements Masters, the ”Monsters and Demons” of Heaven”Ding! Congratulations! You have successfully fused a Mythical-grade Defense Tower — Judgment Sky Eye!”

”Judgment Sky Eye (Mythical)”

”Quality: Mythical (Fusion)”

”Attack: 100-9999 (Continuously increases per second)”

”Range: Full Map”

”Trait One: Global Lock-on”: This building can ignore distance and obstacles, locking onto any five enemy units within the map’s range.

”Trait Two: Death Ray”: Attacks continuously increase in damage, reaching maximum damage after 5 seconds. When switching targets, the damage amplification resets.

”Trait Three: Absolute Healing Fire”: All units damaged by Judgment Sky Eye will be afflicted with the [Soul Scorch] status, preventing them from receiving any form of healing for 10 seconds.”

It’s done!

Lin Feng punched the air.

Full map enemy targeting, five-target lock-on, infinite damage stacking, and it even comes with a healing debuff!

This was no longer a dimensionality reduction strike.

This was a blatant, ’surgical strike’ from a god!

The only drawback was that the damage stacking required time. Against a large-scale swarm of miscellaneous enemies, its effect might not be as good as the Sky Eagle Cannon.

Thinking of the legendary cannon that Dragon Aotian had personally dismantled, a hint of inexpressible regret welled up in Lin Feng’s heart. He habitually opened the world channel and typed keywords like ”attack speed,” ”frenzy,” and ”stacking” into the search bar.

The result was still a blank.

It seemed that such an attribute that could infinitely stack attack speed was truly a rare miracle, something one could only hope to stumble upon.

”Forget it, out with the old, in with the new.”

Lin Feng comforted himself and turned his gaze back to the overall situation of the continent.

The Great Qin Empire’s momentum was growing, and many SSS-rank lords had already announced their allegiance. They were like a massive whirlpool, frantically devouring surrounding forces and growing like a snowball.

Although he had Judgment Sky Eye as a trump card, two fists were no match for four hands. The power of one person was ultimately limited. To stand invincible in this war where a hundred boats raced, he had to quickly establish his own force.

He needed more, more interesting ’monsters.’

Just as he was pondering.

”Ding.”

Two crisp private message notifications sounded almost simultaneously.

Lin Feng clicked on the first private message.

The sender’s ID was a bit strange, named MyoSuSeiKa. The avatar was a simple, unadorned carving knife.

MyoSuSeiKa: ”Tian… Heaven’s Choice大佬? Hello, hello! I’m your loyal fan! I’ve watched your Dragon’s Breath Melting Mountain video from yesterday no less than eight hundred times! It’s simply too cool! You’re truly a role model for our generation, an idol’s idol!”

A string of flattery made Lin Feng’s brow furrow almost imperceptibly.

He didn’t like such glib individuals.

Just as he was about to casually close the chat window, the other party’s next sentence made him pause.

MyoSuSeiKa: ”Ahem, that,大佬, I know my meager skills might not catch your eye. But my craft… might be of some use to you.”

With that, he sent an image.

The image showed a… how should one describe it, an extremely peculiar-looking statue.

The main body of the statue resembled a toad roaring skyward, but it had a pair of dragonfly wings on its back and was holding a bone it had picked up from somewhere in its mouth. The entire statue was made of the most ordinary bluestone, and the carving could only be described by the other meaning of ”supernatural craftsmanship,” filled with a primitive and rugged ’beauty.’

However, when Lin Feng’s gaze fell upon the statue’s attribute panel, the disdain on his face instantly turned to surprise.

”Unyielding Battle Spirit Statue (MyoSuSeiKa’s Creation)”

”Quality: Rare”

”Effect: Placed within the territory, it can provide all friendly defense towers in the surrounding (large range) with a 10% additional attack speed and a 10% damage reduction aura.”

”Note: Although it’s ugly, it truly tries its best.”

Group BUFF type building!

Lin Feng’s eyes lit up slightly.

This was truly a rare find. Although a 10% bonus wasn’t high, this was merely a ’Rare’ quality statue. If he were to carve it using Legendary, or even Mythical-grade materials, the effect…

Lin Feng’s mind instantly became active.

This was no longer just ’a bit useful’; this was a strategic treasure!

Heaven’s Choice: ”Your talent is SS-rank?”

Lin Feng asked straightforwardly. To be able to create such a building with innate power of law, the talent level definitely couldn’t be low.

MyoSuSeiKa: ”Dalao, you have keen insight! It is indeed the SS-rank talent [Divine Craftsman]! As long as you give me blueprints and materials, whether it’s buildings or units, I can create ’replicas’ with higher attributes! This statue is something I haphazardly figured out based on a ’War Drum Totem’ blueprint.”

Heaven’s Choice: ”Very interesting craft.”

MyoSuSeiKa nearly jumped off his throne in excitement upon seeing this reply.

MyoSuSeiKa: ”Dalao! This means… you agree?!”

Heaven’s Choice: ”Celestial Court welcomes valuable ’monsters.’ But, you need to first offer your tribute.”

MyoSuSeiKa didn’t hesitate in the slightest.

MyoSuSeiKa: ”No problem! Dalao, please wait!”

A few seconds later, the blueprint for the hideously ugly Unyielding Battle Spirit Statue was sent to Lin Feng through the guild warehouse.

Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction and casually pulled him into the Celestial Court.

”Ding! Lord ’MyoSuSeiKa’ has joined the guild [Celestial Court]!”

Instantly, a boisterous voice appeared in the guild channel.

MyoSuSeiKa: ”Wow! Is this Dalao’s guild? It’s so quiet! Hello, Senior Yi! I’m your fan! Your infinite range arrow tower’s heroic posture is simply awesome!”

Yi, on the other end, merely replied with a single, cold word.

Yi: ”Scram.”

MyoSuSeiKa: ”Alrighty!”

Looking at these two new members with vastly different styles, a rare smile appeared at the corner of Lin Feng’s mouth.

Perhaps, making the guild a bit livelier wasn’t a bad thing.

He clicked on the second private message.

The sender’s ID also carried a profound meaning — Five Elements Reversal.

Compared to MyoSuSeiKa’s enthusiasm, this person’s words were much more concise.

Five Elements Reversal: ”Heaven’s Choice, I’ve watched your battles. Your defense system is strong, but it still lacks versatility. I can use the power of the Five Elements to help you make up for the shortcomings in your defense.”

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows.

This person had something, actually capable of mastering the power of the Five Elements.

Five Elements Reversal: ”I can make up for your shortcomings. My talent is SS-rank [Five Elements Master].”

With that, he also sent a combat recording.

In the recording, an ancient-looking Mage Tower, shaped like a lotus with five different colors, was single-handedly facing last night’s void monsters.

When the Corrosion Swarm approached, the white petal representing ”Metal” on the lotus tower suddenly lit up, no longer firing magic orbs, but rather extremely sharp Geng Metal Sword Qi filled with a cutting aura! The sword qi crisscrossed, dealing devastating blows to these fragile flying units!

And when the thick-skinned and heavily armored Heavy Armored Crypt Demon charged to the base of the tower, the red petal representing ”Fire” instantly took over, spewing out raging flames that countered its ”Earth” attribute, instantly doubling the damage!

”Five Elements Lotus Tower”

”Quality: Epic”

”Effect: Can automatically switch to a countering attack mode based on the enemy’s attributes (Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth), dealing an additional 100% counter damage.”

”What a Five Elements Master.”

Lin Feng praised in his heart.

Such a defense tower, capable of automatically targeting enemies and intelligently switching attack modes, held even greater strategic value than MyoSuSeiKa’s statue!

Especially when facing future enemies with all sorts of strange attributes, one Five Elements Lotus Tower would be even more effective than ten ordinary legendary towers.

This was yet another perfect fusion material!

Lin Feng didn’t waste any more words and directly sent the conditions and requirements for joining the guild.

Five Elements Reversal was clearly also a smart person; after a brief thought, he submitted three Five Elements Lotus Towers as tribute.

”Ding! Lord ’Five Elements Reversal’ has joined the guild [Celestial Court]!”

At this point, the Celestial Court guild began to take shape.

An archer responsible for full-map targeted kills.

A sculptor responsible for providing group BUFFs.

A Five Elements Master responsible for attribute counters.

Plus himself, the omnipotent ’fusion monster.’

A ’monster’ squad with clear divisions of labor and individual strengths had quietly formed.

Lin Feng looked at MyoSuSeiKa (who had self-proclaimed himself as the ”Celestial Court Logistics Manager”) in the guild channel, directing the new members to relocate their strongholds around his territory, and felt quite pleased.

However, this pleasure was soon completely shattered by an announcement from the world channel, filled with dominance and majesty.

That announcement came from the Great Qin Empire.

Great Qin · First Emperor: ”By the mandate of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: To integrate the forces of the First Sequence Battlefield and jointly resist foreign enemies, effective immediately, all SSS-rank lords who have not yet joined a guild are commanded to report to Xianyang Plain in the Eastern Continent within three days to discuss the grand plan of unification. I will, based on your strength and contributions, confer official titles and grant territories.”

”This is an open strategy, not coercion. However, affairs of the state do not permit petty individuals to remain aloof.”

”After three days, all who fail to arrive without just cause shall be considered enemies of my Great Qin and enemies of the entire ’First Sequence.’”

”At that time, even if there is a peace treaty, I have a thousand and one ways to make you… wish you were dead.”

”欽此 (Respectfully submitted).”

This imperial edict, like a giant rock, was thrown into an already turbulent lake, stirring up colossal waves!

This was no longer a mere recruitment.

This was a blatant ultimatum, issued in the name of the entire world, to all SSS-rank powerhouses who were still observing!

Those who follow me prosper, those who defy me perish!
