Yang Tao and Alvida had identical expressions on their faces.
Both wore a triumphant, scheming smile.
Bang! Block successful.
The mont the spiked club touched Yang Tao's backside, its terrifying force vanished.
This sudden shift from rapid motion to complete stillness made Alvida feel like spitting blood, or rather, it wasn't just a feeling… The instant the spiked club stopped, Alvida felt a surge of power appear within her body, constantly impacting her.
She was injured…
Injured inexplicably.
"Alvida, there's an old saying in the East Blue: 'All's fair in love and war.' The mont you made your move, we beca opponents, enemies. How could you believe my nonsense?"
Yang Tao chuckled, extended his hand, and flicked the dark spiked club. The two-ter-long club sprang away from him. He walked over, patted Alvida's smooth shoulder, and said earnestly, "Follow and learn well. The waters of this world run deep."
For example, my old father, the Revolutionary Army leader, my grandfather, the Marine Hero, my Four Emperors uncle who gave a cheat, and a series of other deeply moving little stories.
"Alvida, I'll leave them to you. I have so things to attend to…"
Alvida watched his retreating figure as he entered the ship's cabin, her fingers gripping the spiked club turning slightly white.
She glared nacingly at the pirates who were watching the show, but with her drastically changed appearance, even her fierce expression held little deterrence…
"Now, you will train hard. If you're not obedient, I'll drill you one-on-one!!"
The pirates shivered.
… …
Returning to the Overworld from the One Piece world.
He imdiately saw the figure sitting by the pool, clad in blue dieval knight armor.
"You're back?"
A smile appeared on Yang Tao's face. He walked over, pulled up a chair next to the Blue Knight, sat down, and asked with a chuckle.
"I visited so morable places."
The Blue Knight's voice still sounded magnetic, but Yang Tao detected a hint of sadness in it.
"Many places have changed, and so have even been destroyed…"
Hearing the Blue Knight's words, Yang Tao didn't know how to comfort him for a mont and could only honestly be a listener.
According to the Blue Knight, many levels had already changed, and powers from other worlds were rging in, which worried him greatly…
As Yang Tao understood it, the Blue Knight was talking about the rging of several versions of the Backrooms, a phenonon he had noticed long ago.
Level 14, originally a field hospital, had rged with the Dyed Blood Forest to beco the new 'Paradise' level. The abandoned hospital within Level 14 could prove this point.
"How about you co with to relax?"
Yang Tao was a little concerned about the Blue Knight's state, although the additional ten thousand health points proved that this guy should be fine.
But what if?
"Relax? Go look for the beasts on the fifth floor?"
Yang Tao: "…"
You call looking for beasts on the fifth floor relaxing? But what you said isn't entirely wrong.
"If you want to find beasts, that's fine, but the place I'm talking about isn't Level 5. It's a tall tower, and challenging the monsters inside will yield so rewards."
"I challenged it once before, but I failed on the 10th floor…"
The Blue Knight, who was initially not very interested in the so-called tower and rewards, suddenly beca interested when he heard that Yang Tao was defeated on the tenth floor.
"A tower? How many floors does this tower have in total?"
"I don't know either…"
He only climbed to the tenth floor before the Hydra taught him a lesson. Who knows how many floors there are above that?
"Oh?"
The Blue Knight stood up from his chair. Although he was currently just a suit of armor, Yang Tao inexplicably saw a smile on his face.
"Very interesting. I'd like to go see it."
For so reason, Yang Tao felt a strange sense of being looked down upon.
He imdiately stood up and said to the Blue Knight, "Follow ."
Passing through the wooden door to the serene Twilight Forest, the Blue Knight, just like his first ti here, observed the surroundings like a curious child.
"A strange world. I feel so of my abilities are restricted, but my power is not affected. It's a very strange feeling."
Yang Tao, walking towards the tower entrance, heard the Blue Knight say this and asked curiously, "You don't have this feeling in the Overworld?"
"The Overworld? Are you referring to the place we were just in? I don't know how to describe it. It doesn't restrict any of my abilities, but I feel that using power there is a very dangerous act…"
"Then never mind."
Arriving at the tower entrance, he glanced at the prompt above.
"Challenge resurrection attempts: 1"
"Challenge again: 1"
Seeing the prompt, a smile appeared on Yang Tao's face. He turned to the Blue Knight and said, "Lancelot, co and look at what's written on this signboard."
The Blue Knight walked to the signboard, and both of them saw the sa information.
"This is the tower you spoke of?"
The Blue Knight looked up at the towering stone spire before him, a fighting spirit inexplicably rising within him.
"That's right, this is it. Let's get straight to the point."
After confirming there were no issues, Yang Tao led the Blue Knight directly into the tower, but a new prompt popped up as they stepped inside.
"Simultaneous challenge participants increased, challenge difficulty increased proportionally."
???
I brought a thug with 230,000 health, and you tell the difficulty increases?
Increase it for , increase it to the max!
The two walked into the tower. The Blue Knight drew the longsword from his waist, ready for battle.
But there were no creatures in the empty first floor.
"Uh, the tower hasn't reset yet. Let's go straight to the tenth floor."
The tower reset takes a week, and only three days had passed since his last challenge.
The Blue Knight nodded slightly at his words, but he didn't put his longsword back in his backpack. Instead, he carried it and followed Yang Tao upstairs.
With no monsters to block them, the two quickly reached the level where the Hydra was located.
Hydra
9500 / 9500
???
Last ti, a tenfold increase to 3800 was already outrageous. This ti, you bastard, 9500 is a 25-fold increase directly??
Glancing at the Blue Knight, who was observing the Hydra, Yang Tao gritted his teeth and said, "Lancelot, I'll try first… If it doesn't work, you go next."
"Good."
The Blue Knight's answer was very crisp and decisive, yet very reassuring.
Looking at the Hydra's massive body, Yang Tao had been purely careless and underestimated it last ti.
He took out a Fire Resistance Potion from his backpack and drank it. He didn't use other potions because he already had permanent buffs, so drinking more potions would be useless.
"I'm going in!"
As his voice fell, Yang Tao instantly turned into an afterimage and charged towards the Hydra.
Instantly, raging flas spewed from one of the snake heads, not even needing to aim at Yang Tao. The orange-red flas directly covered the entire space of the tenth floor of the tower.
This was just an appetizer. Neither Yang Tao nor the ferocious Hydra considered that these flas would have any effect.
