Realized Game: I Hoarded 10 Billion Defense Towers

WHOOSH~

Following Father Shen’s cue, the six-person team fixed their gazes on the center of the Immortal Palace, which had been blasted clean through by the concentrated light beam from the Defense Towers. In the center of the Immortal Palace, at the spot where the strongest world boss had died, was a special cylinder. It had a health bar displayed on it.

From Father Shen’s explanation, Shen Fei understood that, as part of the quest, his job was to deplete the cylinder’s health. Only then would the Fifth Ring of the [Heaven-Opening Gate] quest be truly complete.

BOOM!

Knowing the target and that time was tight, Shen Fei, without a word, immediately concentrated the Defense Towers’ attack and fired at the cylinder, which appeared to have health in the tens of billions. Then, amidst the blinding flash of light, the cylinder’s incredibly long health bar was instantly depleted.

CRACK!

The instant the health bar was emptied, Shen Fei heard a crisp cracking sound. He looked up in surprise and saw that the sky of this game world had been cracked wide open. It was identical to the passage he had seen open on his computer screen when the *Tower Defense of Ten Thousand Realms* game world was invaded.

Above, the entire sky looked as if it had been peeled back. Countless hairline cracks appeared across its expanse. At the very center was a "sky" above the sky. Sensing the aura leaking from the sky, which looked like a cracked-open skull, Shen Fei knew instantly. Above them was the entrance to another game world.

[DING!]

[Key item of the Fifth Ring game world has been destroyed!]

[DING!]

[Mandatory quest "Heaven-Opening Gate" Fifth Ring complete!]

[DING!]

[Entering a random game world for the Sixth Ring quest!]

Just as Shen Fei thought they would fly towards the sky and directly enter another game world, his personal status panel suddenly opened, and lines of text began to scroll across it.

SWOOSH!

Before Shen Fei could even react, his Defense Towers were automatically retracted into his inventory. Then, his vision blurred, and the environment he was in changed completely...

"Fuck!" he exclaimed. "That’s it? We have to find the quest boss ourselves?"

He had been instantly transported to who-knows-what game world. Staring at the dim, damp surroundings, Shen Fei was completely stunned.

Soon, with his father’s explanation, he learned that the so-called [Heaven-Opening Gate] Ring Skill wasn’t about them fighting their way up layer by layer. Instead, after they broke through one game world’s Boundary Wall, they would be randomly sent to a new game world to break a new Boundary Wall. As for what would ultimately happen to the two game worlds that were just connected, no one knew. The so-called [Heaven-Opening Gate] Ring Skill meant that the various rings and their respective game worlds had no necessary connection to each other.

"What the fucking hell..." Shen Fei grumbled. "Does this mean we have to start over in every game world, for every ring?"

Father Shen’s explanation made Shen Fei understand the situation.

WHOOSH~

Now that he knew the rules, Shen Fei complained but didn’t dwell on his frustration. He quickly set up his Detection Tower, preparing to scan the new environment and figure out the situation in this Sixth Ring game world. He needed to find the world’s strongest boss that needed to be slain.

He understood. I have to be fast!

At this moment, the quest time had been reduced to three and a half days. Including the time already spent, they now had only a little over forty hours remaining. And because of Shen Fei’s entry, the rules had automatically adjusted; the number of rings to complete was now eighteen. In just over forty hours, they had to break through 13 game worlds. This left them with less than two hours for each one.

Moreover, as the ring number increased, the monster strength in the game worlds would increase exponentially. The further they went, the harder it would be to break through. Therefore, they had to save time on the earlier rings, reserving a flexible buffer for the more difficult ones to come.

WHOOSH~

WHOOSH~

After placing the Detection Tower, Shen Fei, without a word, quickly deployed a range-enhancing Defense Tower, boosting the Detection Tower’s range to nearly 10,000 kilometers. He then began scanning the surrounding environment.

At the same time, Zhao Li—whose Divine Sense range had increased to 8,000 kilometers after inheriting his third game ability—also released his Divine Sense to quickly search for the target.

While the others were waiting for Shen Fei and Zhao Li’s results, Father Shen pulled the other two team members over to introduce them. "You already know Zhao and Huang! This is Tear, and this is Kong!"

"Hello, Brother Fei!"

"Hello, Brother Fei!"

They had witnessed Shen Fei’s supreme Combat Power and the respect Zhao Li and Huang Yi held for him. They also knew he was the captain’s son and that he, a person who hadn’t even received the quest, had managed to reverse-invade the game world on his own. Therefore, even though Tear and Kong were not very familiar with Shen Fei, they were exceptionally respectful when they greeted him.

"Hello!" Shen Fei nodded to each of them. "Hello! I know you two!"

Afterwards, he started chatting with everyone while he continued to scan the world.

Soon, Father Shen learned that his son’s ability to reverse-invade and follow them into the game world wasn’t because he was so powerful he could freely traverse dimensions at will. Rather, it was because of the Divine Artifact in his hand, called [Zu’an’s Kiss]. It had an attached Clone Skill, and the resulting pair of Divine Artifacts had the ability to sense each other.
