Chapter 42: The Ghost in the Darkness
Chapter 42: The Ghost in the Darkness
The comments box was flooded in an instant.
Pierce was ready. All that was left was to wait for the start of the infinite invasion.
Under the lively atmosphere in the live-stream, time slowly passed and it was evening.
As usual, he bought dinner from the Tower Defense store.
Simply put, the Tower Defense points he had now could support their daily lives for about a year.
Pierce sat at the head of the table, while Vivier, Griffin, and Mel sat beside him.
It was still drizzling outside, and the darkness gradually descended on the land.
It was quite strange. This was the first time he had seen rain since he came to this Tower Defense world.
And it rained for an entire day.
Looking at the motionless dark clouds, it would probably continue for a few more days.
He did not have the strength to explore the secrets of this Tower Defense world currently.
It was time to think of ways to strengthen himself.
Just as everyone was eating around the candlelight, Vivier suddenly frowned and looked out the window.
Pierce quickly got up.
“What’s wrong? Did you notice anything?”
Pierce was surprised to see Vivier frowning.
They were not in monster invasion mode, which meant that…
Wuuuu!
A faint sound rang outside, attracting everyone’s attention.
This creature outside, was it a native of this world?!
At that moment, the people watching the live stream were also shocked by this faint cry.
“F*ck, what the hell is that outside!”
“WTF, I’m alone at home. F*ck!”
“Damn it boss, don’t go out, don’t be rash!”
“Boss Pierce is leaving just like that?!”
Pierce walked to the second-floor balcony.
Pierce froze as soon as he walked out the door.
The rain fell on his hair. The scene in front of him stunned everyone.
There was a huge, white, and transparent creature in front of Pierce. It seemed to have a strange face. It looked like a ghost.
At this moment, the stats of this creature appeared.
Pierce looked at the panel thoughtfully.
[Ghost]
[Level: 5]
[Growth Potential: Zero]
[Introduction: It was created from the amalgamation of the many souls who died in the Tower Defense and some special energy items.]
A level 5 creature!!
Growth potential was zero, and the many souls who died in the Tower Defense…
In other words, this thing was formed because of me?
However, light element creatures like angels should be able to restrain this kind of ghost, right?
Pierce couldn’t help but look at Vivier.
Vivier was still expressionless, and behind her, Mel was trembling in fear.
What a cute succubus.
Seeing Vivier’s expression, it seemed like she was at ease.
However, the audience in the live-stream did not think so.
“F*ck, this thing can also appear. No way!”
“Goddamn, why is our Country M suffering so much!?”
“Stop playing around. Isn’t this bullying us!?”
“It’s not just our Country M, these creatures are appearing in other countries’ camps as well.”
“They have appeared in Country H.”
“F*ck, the arrow towers can’t hit this thing?”
Back in the city of Country M.
Pierce smiled at the approaching shadow.
He handed the lightning element AK-47 to Vivier.
At the same time, he ordered the arrow towers to aim at the ghost.
Just as he was about to fire, he suddenly froze.
Cannot fire??
Lightning flashed on the arrow tower as they left Pierce’s control.
Damn.
Was this ghost’s characteristic interference?
Pierce stared at the huge ghost.
Vivier pulled the trigger and found that it was not working.
She conjured a golden bow with patterns carved on it. Specks of golden light surrounded it.
It was very eye-catching in the dark.
The arrow condensed on her bow.
A golden hint appeared in Pierce’s vision at the same time.
[Ghost]
[A strange creature that contravenes scientific development. When it comes to ghosts, it should be afraid of things related to light. Why are you asking me such an easy question?]
Just like I expected. How could ghosts not be afraid of angels?
Pierce rubbed his nose.
Vivier was ready to fight.
Looking at the small figure that was aiming with the bow, he smiled.
He was simply too lucky to have such powerful combat strength. Pierce thought to himself.
How could other countries be like him, guarding a country alone?
“Absolute strength wins against weak quantity!”
Pierce muttered to himself as he watched the little succubus hug the griffin.
Because of Vivier, the intruder was easily restrained.
Whoosh.
The golden arrow drew a straight line in the night sky and shot into the huge body of the ghost.
Roar!
Its originally transparent body instantly began to smoke as it let out a hoarse and shrill cry.
A level 4 angel perfectly restrained a level 5 ghost.
This battle, which seemed to be extremely dangerous to outsiders, had ended just like that with one arrow from Vivier.
However, this seemingly simple monster had become a nightmare for many tonight.
The comments in the live-stream were already exploding.
“I thought it would be a powerful character, but this is it?”
“Why don’t you try it! Don’t you see what the other countries are like!”
“Good lord, a small country is already destroyed by the ghost!”
“Are you blind? Can’t you see that Vivier is an angel!”
“Please change your eyes. Won’t you die in an accident with your sight?”
“Vivier, hehe, Vivier!”
“Previous poster, what the f*ck are you on?”
“…”
————
“Ha!”
Pierce stretched and confirmed that he had regained control over the arrow towers.
Relieved, he walked into the living room and made himself a cup of coffee.
He had thought that the intruder was fierce, but in the end, it encountered Vivier.
That ghost was really unlucky.
If it were another country, it would basically be GG.
It had not even been three days since the last battle, and their vitality was greatly damaged.
In addition, the arrow towers and other weapons had malfunctioned.
It was basically hopeless for them to turn the tables.
This could be said to be a true disaster.
