Chapter 44 The Song of the Great Wind
"Dedication to one's job, selfless contribution, hard work, and the glory of labor! Guardians have become laborers, and my sword and shield will be used for logging! This setting is...unbelievable!"
Liu Huasheng thought to himself that this rare defensive tower was quite powerful. It had 4,000 durability at level one and a damage reduction of up to 70%, which was almost as good as the Taunt Golem. It also had a powerful protective aura, could chop wood, and could even upgrade its level by chopping wood!
"Then what are we waiting for? My sword and shield, let's go chop wood!"
At Liu Huasheng's command, the two-meter-tall sword and shield in front of him spun around once, then walked down the hill step by step, heading towards the distant woods.
Even manual laborers need logging sites to cut down trees, but this sword and shield clearly don't.
Liu Huasheng followed curiously and soon saw the "Sword and Shield Dog" chopping wood. It held a shield in its left hand and swung a sword in its right. With each chop, Liu Huasheng would get a little wood. After ten chops, a big tree would be gone!
"This logging efficiency..."
Liu Huasheng's eyes lit up.
"A laborer has to chop a tree 100 times with a small axe to get a little wood, while a knife-and-shield dog can get a little wood with just one chop. In terms of logging efficiency, one dog is equivalent to a hundred laborers."
Moreover, this guy is a model worker, dedicated to his job, and can keep logging without any limit on logging!
I thought the Steel Ripper from the Engineering Shop was invincible at logging, but the Blade & Shield Dog is a hundred times better. With this blade and shield, why bother logging by hand?
Liu Huasheng sighed.
He continued to observe.
"The attack speed of the sword-and-shield dog is 0.5, meaning it can swing its sword once every two seconds. Theoretically, if it could keep chopping wood, it would only take five and a half hours to be selected as a county-level model worker and advance to a second-tier defense tower, a little over two days to advance to a third-tier defense tower, and then twenty-three days to advance to a fourth-tier tower... In 63 years, it would advance to a seventh-tier tower, in 634 years to an eighth-tier tower, and in over six thousand three hundred years to advance to a ninth-tier tower..."
"Holy crap, I'm afraid I'll never see it advance to the eighth tier of the tower in my lifetime!"
Liu Huasheng shook his head. He walked up to the sword-and-shield dog and ordered it to cut down trees nearby. Then he returned to the side of Chaos City, drank the stamina potion he had obtained from the mine in the southwest corner, and his stamina quickly recovered to 100 points.
"One more tower!"
Liu Huasheng continued to swing the construction hammer, and a hundred seconds later, a brand new defensive tower appeared in front of him.
Donkey Afu and Yellow Dog Awei are here to report that this is a first-level [Basic Wind Tower]. The tower is ten meters high, with a base at the bottom. The tower body has holes, and from a distance it looks like a stone pillar that has been severely damaged by the wind.
Liu Huasheng looked up and saw inscriptions on the base of the wind turbine: "The wind rises, the clouds fly; its might extends across the land, it returns to its homeland; where can we find brave warriors to guard the four directions!"

"Great tower! Basic wind towers are useless, but my Great Wind Tower is amazing! It has area-of-effect knockback and can summon A-rank heroes—four in one go! Tom Cruise and his crew are only B-rank heroes!"
Liu Huasheng felt that with the wind tower's group control and the sorcery arrow tower's single control, the defense of his Chaos City had undoubtedly reached a new level!
A moment later, Liu Huasheng, having finished studying the two new towers, brought his two game assistants to the Earth Noodle Shop for a meal. Suddenly, a soft voice rang out from the sky.
"Hello everyone, this is 7:00 AM on January 9th of the Starry Sky Calendar. This is Chaos City Radio Station (SYQ31319022), bringing you joy in your daily life. Now, here's our daily song segment..."
Two thousand years later, Hong Kong films were in decline and box office was sluggish. However, "Infernal Affairs" was made with a low budget of HK$2000 million and grossed HK$5505 million in Hong Kong. It also swept the Hong Kong Film Awards and the Golden Horse Awards, rescuing Hong Kong films from their decline.
In the film, Andy Lau plays an undercover agent who is forced into a corner by circumstances, while Tony Leung plays a character who is not in control of his own destiny. The two award-winning actors deliver a classic rooftop showdown scene with their superb acting skills.
Today we present to you the theme song of the classic Hong Kong film of the same name, please enjoy the song "Infernal Affairs" performed by Lau Tak-fa and Leung Chiu-wai...
The music began slowly and spread to every corner of Lostamp.
Meanwhile, on a small island in the southeast, Zhou Shuqi was waiting for his mana to recover. Listening to the broadcast, he wondered, "Two thousand years later? What does that mean? Is this broadcast a prophecy? And what's with this Hong Kong movie thing?"
Guan Zhengxing, standing beside him, yawned and said, "Stop studying this. Has your mana recovered? Hurry up and buff Brother Corundum!"
"I stayed up all night, completely absorbed in this, and I've refreshed the Wisdom Bracelet at least forty times. And you're still doing this?"
"Absolutely! The prisoner's castle is only half destroyed; we can't give him a chance to recover! If you behave well, I'll grant you a great opportunity!"
"All right!"
Zhou Shuqi nodded helplessly. She had just accumulated enough magic points to cast the [Wisdom Ring] once, and at that moment, amidst the music, she applied the skill to the level nine corundum golem.
The corundum puppet's health bar had been reduced by half, and as soon as the crown appeared on its head, it strode towards Ma Xianlong's Chaos City.
Meanwhile, Ma Xianlong was standing in the city defense hall. He had been awakened by the broadcast, sporting dark circles under his eyes and yawning. When he saw the corundum puppet approaching again, he immediately jumped up and cursed, "Damn it, it's here again! Day or night, is it trying to kill me?!"
His game assistant sighed beside him, saying, "This should be the 41st attack. The outer defensive towers have all been destroyed. Chaos City's durability is estimated to lose at least a thousand points! But don't worry, Master, if we keep at this rate, we'll kill this corundum golem first..."
In the distance, Sima Zhen leaned against his second-tier ice tower, listening to the broadcast in the sky, and asked curiously, "Turtle, who are Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei? I've never heard of these two players. Are they very strong? What does 'movie emperor' mean? And what is a movie?"
The game assistant replied, "I don't know, I don't understand at all!"
"Although I don't know who they are, this song is really nice. We can also listen to a storytelling performance later, which is not bad..."
As Sima Zhen finished speaking, he saw the jade puppet approaching Ma Xianlong's castle in the distance, so he happily went forward to watch the spectacle. He took out a piece of dried rat and gnawed on it, shouting, "Go, Big Stone! Destroy Ma Xianlong's castle! I'm rooting for you!"
Outside the island, above the waters, a woman with butterfly-like wings made of ice crystals flew in. She watched with a puzzled expression as the towering stone golem pounded on the castle with its fists, muttering, "What's going on? Is this some kind of monster attack?"
In the center of Lost Temple, near the Lost Temple, Hua Xiaolan paced back and forth, grumbling, "Where's that damned donkey? It said it would be out at night, but I've been watching all night and haven't seen a single shadow!"
