Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

The human defensive line immediately lost its momentum.

And in the distance, a Bone Dragon with over 100,000 HP, which had effortlessly shrugged off countless tank shells, flapped its wings and flew toward them. The Skeleton Mages riding the Bone Dragon brandished their bony arms, casting all sorts of buffing spells.

Below, hundreds of thousands of Skeleton Knights in formation, empowered by countless Auras, accelerated their charge. The tremors from their charge made it difficult for many people to stay on their feet.

Seeing this, the temporary commander-in-chief, Li Yunlong, roared, ”Fire all missiles! Every last one of them!”

Facing the monster horde’s premature charge, Li Yunlong had no choice but to launch the missiles he had been holding in reserve.

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

WHOOSH!

At Li Yunlong’s command, countless missiles, long since prepared, ignited and launched. If they didn’t launch them, the defensive line would be overrun, and all the citizens of Qing City behind them would be doomed. The missiles intended to be their last resort had to be fired, even though the battle had just begun!

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

In an instant, countless missiles, trailing long plumes of smoke, soared into the sky before slamming back down to earth. Amidst the earth-shattering explosions, everyone was forced to shut their eyes. When they opened them again, every monster within a ten-kilometer radius, including the Bone Dragons, had been completely annihilated by the missiles.

At this early stage of the game’s invasion, a carpet bombing of missiles was still incredibly powerful.

RATTLE. RATTLE. RATTLE.

But their joy was short-lived. In the blink of an eye, even more skeletons swarmed forward.

A monster tide. The name said it all—monsters as vast as the tide itself. It was all about their sheer, overwhelming numbers. It was all about being endless.

One charging wave of Skeleton Monsters had been stopped. But more continued to swarm forward. You might stop one wave, but could you stop ten? Could you stop a hundred?

The skeletons were infinite in number! But the missiles at Li Yunlong’s disposal were finite. Extremely finite.

SWOOSH!

As another monster tide charged forward, a small Tornado suddenly appeared in its midst. After appearing, the Tornado rapidly expanded. Soon, it grew to a radius of several dozen meters and a height of several hundred.

WHOOSH. WHOOSH. WHOOOOSH.

The Tornado, now fifty to sixty meters in radius, carved a path of destruction as it swayed back and forth. Another wave of monsters was wiped out.

Unfortunately, even more swarmed in from behind! The Tornado sweeping across the battlefield had only cleared a few kilometers, but the monster horde spawning from Qing City stretched on for dozens of kilometers.

”Are you okay?!”

As the Tornado dissipated, the tank’s owner, Zhang Qiqiang, rushed to support his friend, who had collapsed beside him.

”The Wind Magic Forbidden Curse, World-Ending Tornado... I can only cast it once!” the man coughed up blood. ”I’ve only inherited my skills so far, no equipment or potions... Casting one move like that is my limit!”

He fainted as soon as he finished speaking. This was a player who had inherited extremely powerful Magic abilities. After forcing himself to cast a Forbidden Curse to halt the monster tide, he had collapsed on the spot.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

After the massive Tornado, several other Ability Users unleashed their ultimate moves. There was a Minotaur who swung a Totem Pole, carving massive gouges in the earth; a bald man wielding a colossal, red Dragon Slayer Sword, who unleashed a blade of energy hundreds of meters long; and a blue-haired girl with a Shark Cannon on her shoulder, who fired a barrage of explosive grenades.

Their ultimate abilities were indeed incredibly powerful at clearing enemies. The next wave of charging monsters was wiped out in quick succession.

However, ultimate abilities are called ultimate for a reason: they can’t be sustained. These inherited game abilities could be used twice at most before the Ability User was out of commission.

Once all the ultimate abilities were on cooldown, the hastily assembled defensive line began to crumble once more. Skeleton Monsters finally broke through, engaging the humans in close combat.

CLANG!

CLANG!

CLANG!

Players who had inherited Close Combat abilities surged to the front lines. And then, the casualties started mounting.

Although Father Shen and Uncle Sun’s shield-wielding Golden Divine Monarchs blocked a portion of the recklessly charging Skeleton Monsters, and even impaled and killed two Bone Dragons that had pounced forward, sending a cluster of tanks flying with a single sweep of their wings, the monsters were simply too numerous. For every one they killed, more would pounce to take its place.

Once the first monster got into close range, more and more swarmed in behind it. These suicidal Skeleton Monsters, who charged forward without fear of death, could be easily shattered by an ordinary Warrior with a long blade. But there were too many of them. They were simply unstoppable!

SWISH!

SWISH!

SWISH!

A few seconds later, someone ran. A player, wounded by a monster, looked up. Seeing the dense, unending tide of monsters continuing to pour in from the distance, he decided to retreat.

They were the Chosen Ones who had inherited game abilities. In their future, there were countless more game abilities waiting to be inherited. As long as their own safety was guaranteed, everyone was willing to fight and protect. But now, facing an endless monster tide with no end in sight, these Ability Users, who possessed the means to escape, were preparing to do just that!

Everyone knew the monster tide was unstoppable. They just hadn’t expected that the defensive line they had established would be crushed so easily.

”You can’t retreat!”

”You can’t retreat!”

”The citizens of Qing City still need more time to evacuate!”

When the first Ability User fell back, it triggered a chain reaction. All the other Ability Users warily took a step back as well. Seeing this, the frontline commander, Li Yunlong, roared.

The missiles we were holding as our last resort have all been fired. If we’re going to buy more time for the people of Qing City, we have to keep fighting.
