Versatile: Alternate World

It is a major thing that allowed me to fully make a good strategy on how we can brute force and fight against the target without having trouble against the monster horde. A supply depot will always prove its worth in many ways especially in endless horde modes in games. That is not just there to be a decoration.

Looking at the time, we only have 3 minutes left before the first wave of horde comes. Since we don't have time to prepare and I don't have any Horde Coins just yet, I immediately gave everyone their tasks. If I assume correctly, first waves are always the easiest to defend unless I am mistaken.

The village has four sides to defend, the left wall, right wall, north wall, and the south wall where the entrance of the village is located. The walls have a small defense and have 100 HP and from the looks of it, the new interface Lina and I received earlier can upgrade the walls and repair it when damaged for the expense of Horde Coins.

Now, this is a classic Tower and Base Defense mechanic and I still remember some of the games I enjoyed while I was a kid has this kind of mechanic. Of course, minus the horde mode. Still, surviving for 1000 waves will be close to impossible and I don't want to waste my time finishing the 1000 waves unless I want to be a hardcore gamer about it. Of course, I can choose to ask the Entity of the Shrine of Ascension to keep this kind of portal as a training simulator. This is a good way to strategize especially during the invasion of demons. This simulation will allow me to further deepen the strategy in this matter and win easily.

The division of the team goes like this, In the North Side, Atlas and Leona will be the ones who will handle the North wave of enemies. As for the right side, Goro and the Dark Desert Wolf Pack will take the horde while Lina and Lucia will be in charge on the left side. I already told Lina about Lucia's identity so that she won't freak out. Thankfully, she accepted Lucia without a second thought.

"If Master accepted her as a follower, then I will also trust her to be one of the people who will watch my back."

As for me, I decided to handle the south side alone since I have no one to help me to defend the horde as they are all occupied in one area. As for the angel hybrid, I doubt he can be of help since Atlas is still doing his best to restrain the little kid.

[The horde is coming, prepare for battle.]

Then a 4-minute timer appeared before me, which means the horde will last for 4 minutes. I pull out my weapon and ready myself. I already prepared a few traps beforehand by using my ability as a Saboteur to hold off the horde all around the village and allow us to at least slow down their advance. After all, we are going to defend until the duration and not kill all of the enemies. If my assumption is correct, killing them all as quickly as possible might even increase the difficulty of the horde that will come after the first horde. So I have to test out the waters and see how bad it is.

As the timer ticks down, I finally saw some creatures running down the hill. I can't see them clearly due to the distance but when they are now getting much closer, I finally see what those things are.

Goblins.

However, unlike Goro who is a green color goblin and is closer to human in looks, the goblins here are more demonic and they all look like the demonic versions of the goblins I see in anime and other games. They do not resemble the normal goblins in this game at all.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

I can hear on the other sides of the village the sounds of rumbling and explosions which mean my followers are already engaging in battle against the little monstrosities that are attacking.

The little goblins are also swinging their rusty knives and are coming. They won't attack me as their priority and would immediately rush towards the village.

KACHA! KACHA! KACHA!

The first traps I laid down activated a bunch of the cretins triggered it and killed most of the attacking goblins. I changed my weapon into a bow and decided to do practice on it. With the traps I laid down doing the work, I can use this chance to get proficient with the bow and arrow and practice how to handle it.

PEW PEW PEW

As much as I want to speed up my way of aiming, most of the time, I get lousy with it. I don't know how some players get so good at using a bow but I needed good practice with it.

...

Around the 1 minute mark, the "boss" monster finally appeared and it was a hobgoblin. It is a bit bigger than the original goblins but it is quite undeniable that they still looked like fat and bigger goblins. Of course, they are the stronger version of the goblins but they are not as nasty as the little f*ckers.

Although they are big and monstrous along with their strong power, they are too slow and seem to lack the blessings in the speed department. Therefore, these big f*ckers are perfect dummies to be used as my practice partner in bow and arrow.

To make sure there will be no possible leaks, I deployed a few traps around the place to make sure that the little cretins will have no chance of getting past me while I focus on the Hobgoblin.

After putting some of the traps and getting satisfied, I focused all of my attention on the slow f*cker walking towards my direction carrying a club with spikes. Compared to its humongous body, its head is small enough that I decided to use that as my target practice. I also hope that it won't die in my attacks as the Versatile Weapon is strong enough to one-hit kill the hobgoblin if I proc a critical attack. Therefore, I only used normal attacks.

...

When the timer went to zero, the hobgoblin that is almost dying and it's head full of arrows immediately died and the remaining goblins that are running towards our camp immediately died without any explanation as to why they did die.

After the countdown, the rest time has increased from 30 minutes to 1 hour. It is both a good and bad sign that there is something that will happen to the next wave or it is much harder than the previous wave.

Everyone gathered back to the village to rest.

"Goro, are you fine? We have fought against your kind and I am afraid you get hesitant to kill them."

"Master, you don't have to worry about me. They might be goblins in species name alone but they don't share the same bloodline as me and even if they are the same species like me, if they stood in front of my way, I will not hesitate to bring them down."

I nodded and pat his shoulder. It seems he will do everything just to survive and since he didn't flinch in killing the goblins, he isn't hesitant to kill one of his kind if they are part of the enemies.

Opening the interface, I saw that I got 100 Horde Coins collected after defeating the horde. It is a bit little but that should be enough to get some minor upgrades done for the Village's defense.

With the Horde coins checked, I opened the upgrade interface and a few buttons showed up to me and the things that can be upgraded. Currently, there is the wall and the interior facilities upgrades. Clicking the interior facilities upgrades leads me to their upgrade interface. I want to upgrade them but they cost 500 Horde coins per upgrade so I didn't bother to do so.

I clicked the walls next since it is still in level 1 and it the sturdier it is, the better, allowing the village to remain intact even if the enemies managed to get past any of us.

...

Walls: Level 1

Info: Basic walls made from wooden pine trees. They might be sturdy enough to ward off small animals but they are not strong enough to handle monster attacks with great ease.

Coins needed to upgrade to the next level: 10 horde coins.

Note: The wood that made these walls is much stronger than your "morning wood."

I disregarded the note and went to upgrade it up to level 3. When I upgrade it to level 3, the coins it needed increased to 20 horde coins, and to increase its level again, it needs 30 coins now. However, I didn't spend the rest of the coins and went to the other function that I wanted to purchase.

...

Attack Tower: Level 1

Info: Small range tower that automatically attacks enemies that gets into its radar. Will fire a volley of poison arrows to the enemies every 3 seconds. A bit unreliable but will make do in these trying times.

Coins needed to purchase: 20 Horde coins.

Note: At least it doesn't suck at shooting compared to you.
