National Tower Defense Survival: Start Awakening Fusion System

83: Wrath of the Titans! The final trump card!Dragon Aotian’s breathing had grown incredibly heavy, and his eyes burned with the flames of greed and tyranny, as if he could already see the glorious scene of Heaven’s Choice’s fortress being destroyed and himself ascending the throne as the King of the War Zone.

He issued his final command without hesitation, his voice hoarse with excitement.

”Ignore those two useless Mage Towers! Focus fire! Focus fire on that Sky Eagle Cannon! I want to personally watch his greatest reliance turn into ruins before my eyes!”

”Roar—!”

The three Golden Sacred Dragons received their orders and let out an earth-shshattering roar. They ignored the Mage Towers on their left and right that were launching normal attacks at them. With a fierce flap of their massive dragon wings, they transformed into three golden streaks of light and charged directly towards the enormous ice sculpture in the center!

[Freeze Countdown: 13 seconds]

Time was ticking away, second by second.

Everyone’s hearts were in their throats.

Success or failure hinged on this one move!

However, just as the three golden streaks of light were about to touch the Sky Eagle Cannon...

On the right, the Star Fury Mage Tower, constructed entirely from starlight crystals, saw the massive spatial vortex at its base, which had been dormant for a moment, light up once again without any warning!

Buzz—!

A powerful spatial force erupted, precisely enveloping the Golden Sacred Dragon charging on the far left!

”No!”

The Sacred Dragon let out a roar filled with unwillingness. Its massive body appeared so powerless before the mighty spatial laws.

It watched helplessly as its target was within reach, yet it could only be mercilessly swallowed by the enormous vortex. The next second, it vanished from the core area, forcibly thrown back to the starting point of the map once again.

One out of three gone!

”Damn it! Its skill cooldown is that fast?!” Dragon Aotian cursed, but then immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, there were still two!

His gaze was fixed on the remaining two Golden Sacred Dragons!

However, as soon as that thought crossed his mind...

On the left, the seemingly most harmless Holy Witch Mage Tower, the cute little witch at the top of the tower once again raised her pink magic wand.

”Meeh~”

A pink heart-shaped beam of light once again pierced through the sky.

Its target was the rightmost of the two remaining Sacred Dragons!

”Dodge! Dodge for me, now!” Dragon Aotian roared frantically in his heart.

But it was all too late.

How could a dragon’s speed possibly be faster than light?

Under the stunned gaze of everyone in the channel, history, once again, was comically replayed in a way that was almost humiliating.

The majestic Golden Sacred Dragon, less than ten meters from the Sky Eagle Cannon, in a pink glow, once again transformed into a white sheep with dull eyes and a question mark above its head...

”Meeh?”

The little sheep looked around in confusion, seemingly not understanding why it was there.

And then...

Boom!

A normal energy orb fired from the top of the Star Fury Mage Tower hit it precisely.

The little sheep, along with one of Dragon Aotian’s last hopes, exploded with a ”bang” into a sky full of fireworks.

Two out of three gone!

...

In the channel, there was a deathly silence.

Everyone’s faces were filled with an incomprehensible absurdity and bewilderment.

What... what exactly were they fighting against?

Was this really a tower defense game?

Why did it feel like watching a bizarre magical comedy?

”There’s... there’s still one...” Zhinang’s voice was as dry as desert wind. ”As long as there’s still one...”

Yes, there was still one.

The last remaining Golden Sacred Dragon!

It succeeded!

It successfully evaded all the fatal control skills, and its massive body slammed heavily into the frozen Sky Eagle Cannon!

Crack—

The ice layer shattered with a resounding crack!

”Roar—!!!”

The last Golden Sacred Dragon let out a roar mixed with the anger of its companions’ sacrifices and the ecstasy of completing its mission!

It opened its massive mouth and spewed a scorching golden dragon’s breath, concentrated with the full power of an SSS-grade unit, hot enough to melt steel, fiercely onto the fragile body of the Sky Eagle Cannon!

Boom—!!!!

A violent explosion, accompanied by towering flames, instantly engulfed the entire cannon platform!

The Sky Eagle Cannon’s health bar plummeted at a visible speed!

One hundred percent...

Eighty percent...

Sixty percent...

Fifty percent!

Success!

Dragon Aotian’s eyes burst with a light of ecstasy!

Just one more breath! Just one more breath of dragon’s fire, and this war god, which had brought them endless fear and despair since the beginning, would completely disappear from this world!

However, just as the last Golden Sacred Dragon took a deep breath, preparing to unleash its second breath of dragon’s fire for the fatal blow...

A cold, emotionless gray beam of light, the Annihilation Ray, silently flashed past from behind it.

The Golden Sacred Dragon, in the midst of charging, its massive body suddenly stiffened.

Its golden pupils, burning with fire, instantly dimmed.

Immediately, its mountain-like body, along with the dragon’s breath that was about to be spewed and could have decided the outcome, turned into a sky full of ashes. Blown by the wind, it completely dissipated, as if it had never existed.

The battlefield was silent.

The Golden Sacred Dragon, which carried Dragon Aotian’s last hope, was completely erased from this world by that merciless gray beam of light. Clean, precise, leaving no trace.

[Freeze Countdown: 10 seconds]

On the screen, the crimson numbers, like a drop of blood about to fall, signaled the end of this farce.

In the channel, no one spoke anymore.

All the ecstasy, all the hope, had been crushed to dust before those three playful skills. They finally recognized a cruel truth: their proud SSS-grade units didn’t even qualify as cannon fodder in Heaven’s Choice’s malicious core courtyard.

They were more like three clowns, toyed with at will by their master with three different wands, and then, neatly executed.

Humiliation.

This was an extreme humiliation, more unbearable than death.

Dragon Aotian stared fixedly at the screen, his face, which had been flushed red from congestion, was now ashen with extreme anger and humiliation. His chest heaved violently, as if a wild beast about to lose control was roaring within him.

He lost.

He had used all his pieces, exhausted everyone’s lives and fortunes, only to receive such an absurd and pathetic ending.

Just ten more seconds.

The frozen legendary cannon platform, accumulating endless ”War Frenzy,” would unfreeze.

At that time, it would erase him, along with his magnificent fortress, from this world with a firing rate that surpassed that of a god.

No!

I haven’t lost yet!

A furious, unwilling thought, like a volcano, erupted from the depths of Dragon Aotian’s soul!

He still had one last card.

A card he had hidden up his sleeve all along, prepared to deliver a fatal blow to Heaven’s Choice at the final moment—his true trump card!

”Heaven’s Choice!!!”

His roar was no longer transmitted through the chat channel, but seemed to pierce through the spatial barrier, exploding directly in everyone’s soul!

”Do you think this is over?!”

On the battlefield, the hero who had been enduring the bombardment and fiercely hacking at the second layer of the city wall—the Storm Titan—suddenly shuddered!

He abandoned his attack on the city wall and slowly straightened up.

He plunged his Storm Axe heavily into the ground.

Then, he pounded his mountain-like chest and let out a roar from ancient times, filled with endless fury!

”Skill—Titan’s Body!”

Rumble—!!!!

A massive, visible golden divine power, composed of pureThe Power of Law, erupted from his body, instantly forming an almost solid, incredibly thick golden shield that completely enveloped his massive body!

Titan’s Body: Upon activation, the Storm Titan gains 99% damage reduction, immunity to all control effects, and double attack power, movement speed, and attack speed for 30 seconds!

When this incredibly powerful skill description was clearly imprinted in everyone’s vision...

The deathly silence in the channel was completely broken by gasps of cold air!

”Ninety-nine percent... damage reduction?!”

”This... isn’t this f*cking invincibility?!”

Zhinang was greatly surprised. He stared blankly at the Storm Titan, bathed in golden light, as if he had truly transformed into an immortal god, his brain completely shutting down at that moment.

He finally understood.

This was Dragon Aotian’s true trump card!

All his calculations, all his preparations, even the thirty SSS-grade Golden Sacred Dragons, were merely to force Heaven’s Choice to use all his control and instant-kill skills!

Then, at this final moment, when defenses were most vulnerable...

He would activate this nearly ”invincible” Titan’s Body, lasting for a full thirty seconds, and in the most brutal and unreasonable manner, single-handedly flatten the entire fortress!

What a sinister, what a vicious, yet what a perfectly closed tactical loop!

[Freeze Countdown: 5 seconds]

Time was running out!

”Roar—!”

The Storm Titan, bathed in golden light, roared and pulled his Storm Axe from the ground.

He ignored all the attacks fired from the surrounding defense towers. The cannonballs and rays that could instantly kill dragons only created insignificant ripples on his golden shield.
