Crossing the World of Warcraft: I am an Ancient God
Chapter 837 Climbing the Tower
"My abilities have been sealed. I'm unable to help you even though I want to. But don't worry, once I get to the writer's platform, I'll be free again. I'll be able to provide you with useful guidance and help you find your friends." Zoval said helplessly.
"Well, I know. But there are still many difficulties and obstacles waiting for us ahead. It will all depend on you then!" Yun nodded and continued.
"I will do my best. After all, my energy is sealed and I am greatly restricted now." Zoval sighed, looking a little frustrated.
"Oh, it's okay! You are an Eternal One, and you are so powerful. There must be a way to overcome these difficulties. Just like the monster we met just now, we were all worried to death at the beginning, but you took action and solved it easily!" Yun smiled and comforted.
"This monster is indeed very powerful. If we hadn't known its attack methods in advance, it wouldn't be so easy to deal with." Zoval didn't dare to show any pride at all.
However, Zoval felt a little strange. He didn't understand why Yun suddenly began to put pressure on him. Could it be that Yun had already noticed his subsequent plans? Thinking of this, Zoval frowned slightly and pondered in his heart.
"This is the first one they released. The one in the front must not be very strong. It will be very difficult for us later. You are so familiar with this place, you should be more patient. Otherwise, you tell me how to unlock your seal, and I will unlock it for you." Yun continued, his words revealing a hint of worry and expectation.
Zoval was clearly not expecting Yun to suddenly make such a request. He was taken aback, a look of surprise on his face. However, he quickly regained his composure and did not immediately agree to Yun's proposal.
"That's not necessary. The way I am now is good for both of us." Zoval responded lightly, his tone sounding a little cold.
Seeing this, Yun's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He seemed to have anticipated Zoval's refusal, so he continued, "If you don't remove the seal, can you defeat the ones behind you? What if you can't defeat us?" His tone was noticeably more teasing, as if deliberately provoking Zoval.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Zoval suddenly roared, his voice completely different from before, full of anger and confusion.
However, facing Zoval's questioning, Yun remained unusually calm. He replied calmly, "It's nothing. I just want to help you."
Yun's attitude made Zoval even more angry. He widened his eyes, glared at Yun, and shouted, "It's already this late, and you're still like this. It's meaningless! What on earth are you trying to do? Don't you want to revive your friend?"
Zoval's voice echoed in the air, carrying a hint of despair and unwillingness.
Yun remained unmoved, his tone still cold: "Resurrection, of course I want to revive my friends. But you're not being honest. I don't want to get myself into trouble before I revive my friends."
Yun's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Zoval's heart, making his expression even uglier.
"Does that mean our cooperation ends here?" Zoval gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
Yun sneered and responded, "It depends on what you mean."
There was a sense of disdain and provocation in his tone, and he seemed to take Zoval's threat lightly.
Zoval's rage was completely ignited. He roared, "What do I mean? I've made it very clear! In this sealed state, we can only reach the Writer's Platform to find your friend's soul. This is the only way!"
Zoval's voice was deafening, his anger had reached its peak.
However, Yun remained indifferent. He said nonchalantly, "Well, I don't object. I just think the journey is a bit difficult, so I asked you to go forward."
Yun's words were full of sarcasm and contempt, which instantly escalated Zoval's anger.
"It's already come to this, just tell us what you think. Although we are wary of each other right now, I'm right, we are natural allies and we can still cooperate." Zoval's tone gradually softened. He seemed to realize that in this situation, the hostile relationship between each other was not the best way to solve the problem.
Yun was silent for a moment, then said bluntly, "Okay, let's go over the Soul-Suppressing Chain."
Upon hearing this, Zoval's face showed an expression of disbelief. He laughed out loud, "Are you kidding? That's the Soul-Suppressing Chain! It can suppress and... absorb... everything... everything!" However, his laughter suddenly stopped in the middle of his words, as if his throat was strangled by an invisible force.
Yun did not respond to Zoval's ridicule. He just stood there quietly, waiting for Zoval to digest this shocking news himself.
After a while, Zoval finally came to his senses, his voice clearly wary: "How did you know?"
The corners of Yun's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile: "Didn't you say? We need to be on guard against each other." His tone was still calm, making it difficult to guess what he was really thinking.
Zoval stared at the clouds, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, but I haven't walked through that soul-suppressing chain, so I'm not sure of its exact location."
Yun didn't seem to care. He replied casually, "It's okay. I know where it is."
Winali stared at Yun with wide eyes, stunned, as if she had witnessed the most incredible thing in the world. She thought to herself, this Tower of the Damned is the secret of the Maw and even the entire Shadow Realm, hiding countless unknown secrets. Even a being as powerful as Zoval could only control a portion of it, yet Yun actually knew of a completely new passage!
When exactly did this passage appear? Why did it suddenly appear here? Had anyone used it before? How did Yun know of its existence? This series of questions flooded into her mind like a tide, making Winali feel as if she was caught in a bottomless mystery.
She began to doubt Yun's true purpose. What had he been trying to accomplish by bringing the sealed Zoval here? The more Venali thought about it, the more she felt that things were far more complicated than they seemed. Yun's plans in the Abyss were definitely more complex than he'd claimed.
At this moment, Winali was completely entangled. She realized that the matter here was far beyond her ability. She was afraid that continuing to delve into it would bring her unexpected trouble. However, her inner curiosity was like an invisible hand, tightly grasping her, making it difficult for her to let go.
How should she choose? Should she decisively escape and stay away from this vortex full of unknowns, or should she continue her exploration despite the risks and unravel the mystery in her heart? Winali struggled internally, unable to make up her mind.
"Then let's go now." Zoval said without hesitation, a hint of urgency in his voice.
Before he finished speaking, the gray-blue energy figure swiftly threw out two pieces of Nether Iron, which landed accurately beside the strange body. Then, it floated in front of Yun like a ghost, tightly grasping the heart-pounding Frostmourne in its hand.
Yun's eyes were fixed on the energy figure, his heart filled with worry and fear. He was afraid that this mysterious little guy would suddenly raise Frostmourne and deal him a fatal blow.
However, to Yun's surprise, the energy man didn't act as he feared. Instead, as if completing a mission, it transformed into a cloud of gray-blue smoke without hesitation and flew straight back into Frostmourne.
With a soft "ding" sound, Frostmourne fell straight to the ground as if it had lost its support. Seeing this, Yun hurried forward to pick it up and examined it carefully again.
Unlike when he had Frostmourne before, this time Yun could clearly sense that Zoval was using a gray-blue energy. This energy seemed to have the ability to materialize, making him worry whether it could actually cause him harm.
However, Yun knew that he absolutely could not ask Zoval directly about this energy at this moment. If he did so, Zoval would definitely become suspicious and might even become wary of him.
"Are we just leaving like this? Is there really no problem with that strange creature?" Yun asked doubtfully.
Zoval replied confidently, "Don't worry, the energy will consume it completely."
After hearing this, Yun still had some doubts in his heart, but he chose to believe Zoval's words, "Okay then."
After saying that, Yun walked out of the Tower of Sinful Souls without hesitation along the same path he came from.
As soon as he stepped out of the tower gate, Yun caught a glimpse of the protrusions on the cliff next to him. They were clearly visible as if they were specially marked by the system. They led directly to the top of the Tower of Sinful Souls.
Seeing this, Yun jumped without saying a word and landed on a protruding rock as lightly as a swallow.
"Yun, what are you doing?" Seeing this, Winali couldn't help but scream.
Yun looked back at her and explained, "This road is not easy to walk on. You should wait downstairs, or you can go back directly."
However, Winali did not follow Yun's advice. Her body moved almost without any movement, but she seemed to disappear in an instant and appeared next to Yun in the blink of an eye.
This sudden scene made the originally small rock instantly become crowded.
Seeing this, Yun hurriedly said, "Okay, since you insist on coming with me, then listen to me. When you see where I'm going, don't stand next to me, or there won't be enough room on this rock. Just stand one level below me."
"Yes, okay." Winali nodded slightly, indicating understanding. Yun followed the system's instructions, carefully leaping forward along the protrusions. Not long after, he was pleasantly surprised to discover an unusually thick chain not far ahead.
This chain looked exactly like the ones you'd encounter while climbing a tower in the game. In the game, many places required chains to cross. If that were the case, surely it wouldn't be too much of a problem in real life? Yun thought for a moment, then leaped without hesitation, landing safely on the chain.
Seeing this, Winali quickly teleported to the chain. However, when she took a closer look, a hint of surprise crossed her face. She had been in the Maw for a long time, yet she had no recollection of this chain. This made her puzzled: this chain clearly connected to the Tower of the Damned, but where did the other end lead to?
Once chained, Yun's movements became easier. He walked steadily forward, his path shrouded in dense fog, making it impossible to see what was below. After walking for a while, the system suddenly prompted Yun to jump to the side. Without the system's warning, Yun would have been completely unaware that there was another chain hidden in the mist next to him.
After greeting Winali, Yun jumped resolutely and jumped onto the chain next to him.
"Yun..." Winali looked at Yun in astonishment. She had never expected him to jump into the thick fog so decisively. Her heart suddenly tightened and she couldn't help but scream.
However, to everyone's surprise, Yun landed steadily beside it. Winali looked closely and found that there was also a chain there, and Yun, as if he had known in advance, quickly passed through the chain.
At this moment, when Winali looked back, the previous chain had become blurry, with only a shadow visible. Even more surprising was that the new chain had clearly changed direction, and the previous chain seemed to have disappeared, with no trace left.
Winali was filled with confusion and shock. She didn't know how Yun had found the next chain so accurately in this foggy and unguided environment. She couldn't help but think of the hardships she had gone through along the way, how she had to be careful with every step, afraid of getting lost.
However, Yun seemed to know all of this very well. He jumped onto different chains again and again without hesitation, as if these chains were like clearly marked roads on a map to him.
Yun repeated this operation twice, and Winali could only follow closely behind him. Gradually, the fog in front began to dissipate, and the shadow of the Tower of the Damned Souls appeared faintly in their sight.
It wasn't until this moment that Winali truly realized how astonishing this journey had been. In this foggy environment, with the chains lacking any obvious markings or guidance, it was truly unbelievable that Yun could jump onto the correct chain so accurately.
Even Winali herself, though she had come step by step, knew very well that if she were asked to retrace her steps, she would absolutely not be able to do it. So, how did Yun do it?
At least Winali was certain that Yun had definitely walked this "road", so Yun's purpose in going to the Tower of the Damned became even more confusing.
