When the lightning elemental energy stone was passed to the peashooter’s mouth, it didn’t even look and directly swallowed it.
A purple light flashed.
Crackle!
Threads of lightning wrapped around the leaves of the peashooter.
Its green body had turned dark purple.
From the vines to the leaves above, there were unknown patterns carved on them.
It looked like the symbol of lightning.
The two black eyes turned purple, and lightning flashed in them from time to time.
The peashooter gained the lightning attribute!!
Pierce was delighted when he saw the lightning pea.
He quickly used the Tower Defense information to check the peashooter’s stats panel.
[Lightning Pea]
1
[Level: 4+]
[Growth Potential: Level 7+]
[Remarks: Do you see the lightning on its body? Don’t ever touch it, and don’t even think about provoking it, unless you want a shortcut to death.]
Pierce smiled as he looked at the lightning pea.
In the broadcast room.
Everyone was already numb after witnessing this miraculous evolution.
Whether it was Pierce defending the country alone, the ridiculously high attack power of his arrow towers, or the incomparably ferocious griffin, each one was enough to shake the world.
And now, what had Pierce come up with?
Some pea plants that had vitality and could move?
It seemed like they could even spit out bullets.
As if that wasn’t enough, there was even one that was wrapped in lightning. It didn’t look easy to deal with either.
Everyone was waiting for nightfall.
The third invasion was also at night like the previous times.
After Pierce saw his peashooter evolve, he immediately brought over the remaining fire elemental energy stones and water elemental energy stones.
In an instant, various lights flashed in front of the city in Country M. All the plants had completed their evolution.
After all the preparations were completed, Pierce ate a sumptuous meal with the Tower Defense points.
He then lay down on the soft bed and began to rest.
There was a row of level 4 guards guarding outside, so there was no need to worry at all.
If there was an emergency, the griffin would wake him up immediately.
And just like that, Pierce fell asleep.
His spirit was not fully refreshed as his sleeping schedule had yet to adapt to the reversed living style in the Tower Defense world.

While Pierce was resting, the players from other countries were not idle.
They did not have many elemental arrow towers and elemental plants like Pierce. Thus, they had to forge their own weapons and build defensive walls.
This monster invasion was divided into three stages.
Normal mode.
Hard mode.
Hell mode.
The monsters that would appear in these three modes made them panic uncontrollably.
Even the easiest normal mode had an aberration.
If they made a mistake this time, there would be no need for them to continue this survival game anymore.
Their respective country would be long destroyed.
They had to defend against the aberration this time no matter what.
Even if they had to exchange their lives for it, they had to guard the city!!
These participants from various countries had a simple meal before they started working again.
They did not have enough money to buy luxurious food.
Pierce spent about seventy Tower Defense points for the meal.
1
With their team of a hundred, it would cost about seven thousand points
Even if the team only had ten people, this meal would be enough to bankrupt them.
In the face of death, there was no other choice. Some countries even organized special exploration teams that risked being ambushed by monsters to search for leaves and food.
Many were even shouting to cook the aberration.
In such an environment, no one would be pretentious.
Even when it was time to sleep, they took turns to stand guard, not daring to relax.
After finishing a series of measures, the players from the various countries were tense and exhausted.
Naturally, Pierce did not understand their pain, nor did he want to know.
Time passed quickly.
Currently, there were 70 to 80 people defending each country.
1
Almost every time the monsters invaded, a few people would be sacrificed.
But correspondingly, they had gained quite a bit.
Compared to when they first entered the Tower Defense world, they were more experienced now.
At the very least, they would not be afraid when they saw the various monsters.
Be it their combat skills or combat awareness, they were all increasing rapidly.

Therefore, in these nine days, everyone completed the construction of the city.
1
Right now, they were both hesitant and confident.
On Planet Blue, the audience was cheering for the contestants.
They had all witnessed the hard work of the contestants from all over the world.
Everyone was cheering for their country.
No one wanted their country to be filled with monsters.
Amidst all the anticipation and hope.
The countdown for the third wave of monsters had officially begun!
[Tower Defense World, the third round of monster invasion is about to begin!]
[Leaders of various teams, please select the difficulty mode.]
[Normal difficulty, Hard difficulty, Hell difficulty!]
[Remarks: The more difficult the mode, the greater the rewards.]
[Please choose!]
The light screen appeared before the leaders.
All the leaders chose the first difficulty without hesitation.
Normal difficulty!
Hard and hell difficulties were not even in their thoughts.
Even though the rewards were generous, one had to be alive to enjoy them.
If they lost their lives, what was the point in talking about generous rewards!?
However, two countries chose differently.
While the contestants from the various countries were still in shock, those two countries appeared.
One was the hard mode.
The country which chose it was the second place last time: Country G.
They had only one casualty in the Tower Defense world.
And the other…
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Hell mode!!
Seeing this, everyone had a guess in their hearts, but they didn’t dare to believe it.
[The Country Which Chose Hell Mode:..]
Everyone was waiting for that name to appear.
Everyone wanted to know who it was that dared to challenge the hell difficulty.
[— Country M!]
Following the announcement, everyone on Planet Blue and the entire Tower Defense went into an uproar.
