[Hello, Lone Wolf! Congratulations on successfully clearing the tenth floor!]
[Your skills' cooldowns have now been reset, and you have six hours to rest and regroup.]
But please remember, the challenges ahead will be even greater, and you need to be fully prepared.
Now, please choose one of the following rewards as your prize for clearing the tenth floor!
[A. Physical damage +100%, B. Magic damage +100%, C. Summoned creature damage +100%, D. Clearance rewards +100%!]
Please note that these rewards are temporary and cannot be taken out of the Tower of Despair!
Therefore, please choose carefully and prepare for your next challenge!
"Choose to increase rewards by 100% upon completion!"
For Su Yue, the "Tower of Despair" was the perfect training ground.
Outside of the instance, even elite-level zombie beasts are hard to find.
Typically, you only have a chance to encounter a boss-level BOSS in a large community.
But here, it's like a dung beetle meeting a manure cart—you can have as much as you want!
Moreover, their lowest level is already level 22 or above.
Isn't this much easier than searching for zombies all over the streets?
The only downside is that the number of treasure chests here is relatively small compared to the outside world.
The boss only appears once every ten floors, but even so, it's enough to make you feel satisfied.
Otherwise, Su Yue really wanted to stay here permanently.
As expected, the third driving test is no longer required.
The treasure chest contained only two resource capsules and a legendary skill book.
This book contains the skills he learned during his battle with the Desperate Golden Eagle.
Skill books, as a fixed reward of the Tower of Despair, undoubtedly bring the greatest comfort to those struggling in despair.
[Skill Book: Wind Trace Arrow] Legendary crossbow skill. When an enemy emits a faint aura, this aura will condense into a powerful vortex in your eyes. By firing the Wind Trace Arrow from within this vortex, you can unleash the arrow's maximum power.
It deals wind-type magic damage and has a certain penetration effect. Cooldown: 1 minute.
Wow! Not bad!
Su Yue did not hesitate to learn the skill. At this stage, what he lacked was a small skill that could deal damage and had a short cooldown.
...
After an unknown amount of time, Su Yue's level had jumped from level 24 to level 27.
"Forty-nine floors! I remember in my past life, no one had ever been able to reach this point!"
He recalled his memories from his past life, when the number of people challenging this instance was probably no less than ten thousand.
However, half of the participants died during the challenge, and 40% perished on the ninth floor.
Those who can reach the twentieth floor are extremely rare.
The highest recorded achievement was only the 26th floor.
Therefore, even Su Yue, who possesses extraordinary strength, was not immune.
Passing through the forty-fifth floor was also extremely difficult, with each step feeling like crossing a huge chasm.
At this moment, he must precisely control the pace of the battle to ensure that his skills have enough time to cool down.
On the forty-ninth floor, Su Yue was attacked by five lord-level zombies at the same time.
This forced him to use up almost all of his deadly and survival skills.
Theoretically speaking, he only has the ultimate skill of "destroying the world" left to use.
At this point, Su Yue had successfully unlocked all the skills, talents, and titles.
And they received some insignificant temporary rewards.
The only downside is the constraints imposed by the Tower of Despair mechanics.
The bracelet, the Hand of Plunder, and the S-rank talent Absolute Enslavement have not yet been unlocked.
Therefore, Su Yue was unable to summon Lu Wei and Mu Gui; otherwise, he might still have retained the strength to fight.
However, Su Yue still gained something.
However, among the treasure chests he had collected earlier, he found a skill book that he could use himself.
[Skill Book: Frost Arrow Rain] Legendary crossbow skill. Fires ten arrows in a cone-shaped area in front, each arrow dealing 100% physical damage.
These arrows also deal ice-based magic damage, slowing or freezing enemies. Cooldown: 1 minute.
At this moment, the dragon turtle had lost all its temper.
Regardless of the suggestions offered, Su Yue's decision remained consistent: to move forward steadfastly.
Therefore, no matter what choice Su Yue made, the dragon turtle seemed to have become accustomed to it and was no longer surprised.
When Su Yue successfully passed the forty-ninth floor, the dragon turtle spoke again, as was customary.
[Lone Wolf! The guardian of the fiftieth floor is an Emperor-level powerhouse!]
Your skill cooldowns will only be reset after you clear the fiftieth floor.
[In the previous battle, you used the Ten-Step Kill and the three major summoning skills.]
Furthermore, your Ghost King Body and Divine Protection are currently on cooldown.
You can't possibly get back to your peak condition in just ten minutes!
I advise you to assess the situation and back off in time!
Upon hearing this, the dragon turtle felt a sliver of doubt.
After such a long battle, could this man really still be hiding some secret technique?
It's impossible to hide a move.
Although Su Yue was able to hold out against the Emperor-level zombie for quite some time.
He even had full confidence in his ultimate skill, "World Destroyer," believing it was enough to kill even Emperor-level zombies.
However, he understood that this was only the tip of the iceberg.
Even if he kills the Emperor-level zombie, there will definitely be even more powerful enemies waiting for Su Yue.
A human fighting a King-level zombie alone is a challenge far beyond what a legendary mission should entail.
The Tower of Despair appears to be a tower-climbing battle mode.
However, this tower is actually the embodiment of the "doubt" that the dragon turtle has held in its heart for thousands of years.
Every time the dragon turtle seems to have unraveled a mystery, in reality, its doubts only deepen with each new challenge.
It has been trapped in the Tower of Despair, which it built with its own hands, for thousands of years, and has never been able to find a way out.
Therefore, simply climbing to the top of the tower cannot truly solve its puzzle.
Moreover, nobody knows exactly how many floors are at the top of the tower.
Su Yue realized this when he beheaded the Tombfire Demon on the tenth floor.
In this enigmatic dungeon, climbing the tower is not the only way to escape the Tower of Despair.
Under the regretful gaze of the little dragon turtle, Su Yue resolutely stepped onto the stairs ahead.
In the void, a small dragon turtle that looked exactly like the little dragon turtle and a wooden ghost were watching Su Yue's every move, as if they were playing the role of God.
"What a pity! He's courting death!"
Although Mu Gui was completely unaware of Su Yue's true intentions, the young man had never disappointed him.
A sly smile curled at the corner of Mu Gui's mouth, a smile quite similar to Su Yue's, as if it were a projection of his evil nature.
"I believe in this kid! Chasing Wind, how about we make a bet?"
