"Damn, that's awesome!"
'This ability is good. If I could turn the entire medical team into support types…'
Then just assign one to follow each team, and Ethan wouldn't have to worry about them getting hurt at all. As long as they weren't dead, the medical woman could instantly pull them back.
Even if they couldn't be healed right away, at least the damage could be reduced.
'This ability is seriously badass.'
As for the remaining two team leaders, there weren't any particularly outstanding features.
Cook Four awakened the Chef skill. From an ordinary cook, she became a head chef. She simply learned more recipes, but didn't gain any special combat abilities.
She belonged to a life-type support. Still, improving quality of life wasn't a bad thing.
As for Attendant Five… She awakened a special troop type: Mage.
It was just that her mage class was a bit weak. Possibly because level-two troops were still too weak. Ethan guessed that a profession like mage probably needed higher-level troops to really shine.

This [Troop Upgrade Voucher (Fake)] was still pretty damn amazing. After seeing these changes in his Residents, Ethan immediately felt itchy, wanting to upgrade the remaining seventeen Residents as well.
Of course… Ethan had also thought about whether he could use the [Troop Upgrade Voucher (Fake)] on himself and get an upgrade too.
But the moment he tried, he immediately received a system prompt.
[Upgrade Failed!]
[The target of this upgrade is neither a soldier nor a Resident. Please use an Attribute Upgrade Voucher or a Lord Upgrade Voucher.]
"There's actually a Lord Upgrade Voucher?", Ethan really felt like he'd seen everything.
But he hadn't seen that item on Mr. White's list, which could only mean two possibilities. One was that even Mr. White couldn't get his hands on it, so Ethan didn't need to think about it for now.
The other possibility was… That this kind of Lord Upgrade Voucher was a high-end product, placed by Mr. White on a different list altogether.
In that case, Ethan didn't even need to think about it. Even if he saw it, he probably wouldn't have the money to buy it.
He had originally thought, that after coming to this world, relying on his insane luck, he had already become rich.
Who knew he was still just a slightly wealthier poor man in the slums, completely unrelated to the truly rich.
The dream of becoming a first-generation tycoon, shattered just like that.
Looks like starting tomorrow, he'd have to honestly and seriously work to earn money again.
The remaining three [Troop Upgrade Voucher (Fake)] were directly used by the medical woman's squad. Unexpectedly, they upgraded into several different types of support troops.
The first type was…
[Support – Taunt Type]
[Traits: Can taunt enemies, reduce enemy movement speed, and interrupt enemy chanting or charge-up actions.]
[Special Abilities: Voice of Taunt, Weaken Enemy Morale]
The second type was…
[Support – Inspiration Type]
[Traits: Can boost morale and inspire allied soldiers. Increases allied movement speed by +20%, raises courage and vitality, and also increases recovery speed!]
[Special Abilities: Inspire Hearts, Speed Recovery]
And the third support type was somewhat similar to the medical woman's healing type, just with a different focus.
[Support – Control Type]
[Traits: Can increase a mage's elemental affinity, granting rapid mana recovery, and can also transfer other allies' mana to the main mage!]
[Special Abilities: Mana Recovery, Mana Transfer]
These supports were insane.
Right now, Ethan had only one thought. Next time, bring these supports along to hunt monsters. It would be like going out with a fountain strapped to your back.
The only flaw was probably that these supports had relatively weak self-preservation abilities.
In team battles, they could stay in the back and provide support…
But if Ethan took them out for solo fights, protecting these supports would be quite difficult. If only their troop level were a few levels higher.
These supports should be able to upgrade into some special skills.
Like mages in games.
Usually in the late game, they buff themselves with several support skills, basically becoming immortal, while piling on all kinds of buffs and slowly grinding monsters to death.
'What a pity… Level-two troops are still a bit too weak.'
People really are like this. A bit greedy, never satisfied, like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.
"Forget it, let's go to sleep."
Ethan waved his hand helplessly and said, "You've all been busy all day. You must be exhausted. Go get some rest."
After saying that, Ethan returned to the villa, lay down on the bed, and thought about how to make another round of money.
Buy the remaining dozen or so [Troop Upgrade Voucher (Fake)] from Mr. White and boost the overall strength of the entire team… Thinking and thinking, Ethan unknowingly fell asleep.
However… In the middle of the night, while Ethan was sleeping.
He suddenly heard knocking outside. Just as he was woken up and about to curse in annoyance, someone hurriedly shouted outside his bedroom door, "Lord!"
"I'm Guard Seven. There seems to be an enemy attack outside!"
"Please give the order as soon as possible, Lord. Should we activate defense mode and wake all the Residents to resist the intruders?"
"What?"
The drowsiness in Ethan's head was instantly blown away by Guard Seven's words about an enemy attack.
Ever since Ethan built the villa, he had only encountered one enemy attack, and that was the Lord Trial: Red Dragon Assault.
If it hadn't been for his good luck back then… Half the villa probably would have been destroyed.
'Another enemy attack today?'
'Could it be another Lord Trial?'
'That doesn't make sense. Logically speaking, the Extreme Cold Night trial is coming up next. Stirring up trouble at this time feels a bit too much, even for whoever is behind the scenes.'
"What did you discover? Why do you think it's an enemy attack?"
Ethan quickly asked two questions.
The answers to these would help him judge the current situation.
Otherwise, if he rashly woke everyone up and caused chaos, the real problem wouldn't be the enemy attack, but them throwing themselves into disarray.
"Reporting to the Lord, I discovered a row of firelights appearing in the sky not far away, and judging by the direction, they seem to be coming toward us," Guard Seven reported, "Based on my sixth sense, I suspect it's an enemy attack!"
