I am a reincarnation player.

Yuki found himself standing in an endless wilderness. The crimson ground was as soft as a carpet. Looking around, the earth and the sky were crimson in color. There was a ray of light in the middle connecting heaven and earth, and countless corpses piled up like mountains, spreading into the distance.

There are humans, witch beasts, and unknown monsters. The fragments of swords and knives are scattered all around, looking more like lifelike sculptures.

Either the spear pierced the witch beast's chest, or the sharp claws smashed its head and penetrated into the chest cavity. The splattered blood and broken flesh were still solidified in the air, like a killing field with the pause button pressed.

The sound of footsteps rang out one after another, just like someone was drawing with a pencil. Mercenaries appeared around them one by one, and then at the same time, bursts of inhalation were heard.

Considering the lifespan of the Red Earth Continent, no one has ever been inside the tower. The scene before them was too horrific, so horrifying that it was incomprehensible. Everything was like death, yet everything was vivid.

A battlefield, no, it's more like a messy slaughterhouse. It's unreasonably large. Anyway, Yuki can't see the boundary, and from the outside of the tower, the diameter of the tower is only 500 meters, there is no comparison at all.

"It's indeed a spatial shift. No matter how huge the tower is, it can't possibly contain such a scene."

Yuki was the first to react with a gasp, then looked around carefully.

He first looked behind him, where stood a door made of red light. With a gentle push, he could see the outside world.

The way out can only be opened by tower explorers, which means that each team has a way out.

After finding a way to retreat, he leaned over and grabbed a handful of soil. He squeezed it hard and found that blood could seep out of the soil. He then approached the two intertwined corpses in front of him and grabbed the flesh and blood that had solidified in the air in his hands.

You won’t know until you touch it. Once you touch it, the flesh and blood will rot quickly in your palm and eventually turn into ashes and scatter.

"Time magic, once freed from its shackles, will be washed away by time." Philen came forward. She was an expert in magic.

Yuuki nodded, still not understanding the point, and then shouted, "Everyone, check and see if you've gained anything."

The stunned mercenaries woke up and tiptoed away one by one.

"Sir, the armor of these warriors is very old, at least a hundred years old."

"Witch beasts don't have soul crystals. They are dead."

"We have lost contact with the outside world, and this door cannot be opened."

"Why don't we see any enemies? The other tower explorers haven't appeared either."

......

Various sounds came from the pile of corpses. Yuki thought to himself that not only the mercenaries, but even he had lost contact with his seniors.

The spatial movement was accompanied by a barrier, so it was normal that the lepton communicator was cut off. He was just a little confused. After going through so much trouble to enter the tower, could it be that they were here to watch performance art?

Dead silence, blood, horror, but these things can't scare people at all. It's no problem to stay in the tower for seven days, so why bother climbing up?

Yuki raised his head and looked at the beam of light in the center of the wasteland. If he guessed correctly, there should be stairs there.

"You don't have any records from the tower?"

"Yes, but the notes of our ancestors clearly stated that the conditions are different each time we explore the tower." Peggy's eyes were tense and eager, and she added, "At least, we didn't see this scene the last time we entered the Shura Tower."

"How many times have you entered the towers? Which towers were they?"

"The notes are not complete, at least not enough for me to understand at my level." The mercenary lowered his head.

Yuki didn't make things difficult for him. He waved his hand and asked them to continue checking the surroundings. Since they had come to a strange and dangerous place, guarding the door was the best option.

Philen had already flown into the air, overlooking the wasteland. He could see the flash of light at the end of the horizon and quickly made a gesture to Jiecheng.

The other side? That's the noble coalition.

Yuki's heart tightened. Sure enough, there was more to the tower than just a sculpture exhibition. He raised his arms and shouted:

"Everyone come back and form a defensive formation!"

Clang——

Before he finished speaking, the long sword was already unsheathed. He saw a shadow flash by, and something that looked a bit like a tail emerged from the soil and stabbed the mercenary through.

"Enemy attack! Circular defense formation!"

The mercenaries reacted quickly, but more and more tentacles penetrated the soil and pierced the protective shield like bullets, and Yuki finally saw clearly what it was.

It was dark red, somewhat like flower petals, with a spear-like spike at the tip that emitted a faint red glow.

call out.

Yuki turned sideways, and this thing passed by his chest and actually penetrated the electromagnetic protective field in an instant.

Energy defense is ineffective?

He widened his eyes slightly and saw several blood lines stabbing at him at the same time, and the one that brushed past turned around and stabbed at his back. Without thinking, he danced with the two swords in an impenetrable manner.

Ding ding ding.

The blade slashed up, and there was a crisp metallic sound. The blood line as thick as an arm was completely cut off, and Yuki disappeared from the spot in an instant.

In a moment, he arrived beside Philen, who was wondering why the defensive magic could not block the piercing. The man's back appeared in front of him, followed by the sound of air being torn.

shhhhh......

Without any need for defense, Yuki cut through the mess with a quick sword. He even had time to look down at the battlefield and scan every mercenary.

It only took a moment for the scene to go from dead silence to noisy. Dozens of blood lines emerged from the ground, catching everyone off guard and killing several people on the spot.

Fortunately, the mercenary was also a veteran of many battles. He raised his tower shield to bounce back the blood line, but this thing was as hard as steel. Yuki could chop it off with one knife, but others could not do it. They could only use various weapons to sweep it away.

But some people in the team were obviously slow to react, and the incoming blood line bypassed them and simply switched to the demon vision.

He is indeed a soulless person.

Yuki saw this and said anxiously, "Be careful, this thing seems to be specifically designed for energy defense. There's something strange about the spikes."

This is very similar to a magician killer, with fast speed and strange movements, and it will generate a kind of energy to offset the shield before piercing.

"Understood. I'll help you find your real body." Philen lowered his altitude and extended his staff.

Detect magic.

The magic circle unfolded under his feet, and the halo spread out in all directions, touching the dancing tentacles and following the clues, gathering towards a certain place.

"Right side, 300 meters, depth 10 meters."

"receive."

Yuki didn't have time to think about it. He condensed his energy into a stepping stone, stepped on it with his legs, and fell into the distance like a comet. Facing the blood line that was gathering around him, he pulled out his hunting rifle.

boom! !

Gunshots rang out, and the blood lines wrapped around were blasted away one after another. The way forward was revealed, followed by the light of a burning knife.

Crimson Lotus Blade.

With just one cut, the earth was split open, and the crack extended into the distance, revealing a ball of wool in the soil.

It was covered in messy blood lines that were swaying irregularly, quickly gathering together, and weaving into a dense and thick wall in the cracks. Yucheng rushed straight up, and more than a dozen beams of light passed by its side.

Boom boom boom!

The magic missile in Philen's hand was like a machine gun, blasting holes in the blood lines.

Before the witch beast could fill the hole, Yuki had already penetrated it, stabbed it with a knife with his backhand, and then twisted his wrist.

Burn.

boom--

A large ball of soul fire burned, and the witch beast twisted and screamed, and was burned to ashes by the flames.

Good cooperation.

Yuki appeared more than ten meters away. He didn't expect that he and Philen would have such a tacit understanding when cooperating for the first time, which saved him a lot of trouble. His pupils froze slightly, and he caught a glimpse of lumps of earth rising around him, and arms that were some skinny, some dark, and some bony stretched out.

Then, a monster with dark red skin, distorted facial features, a hunched back, and like a mummy crawled out.

"What a grand welcome ceremony."

Although the witch beast has no eyes, Yuki felt that he was being stared at by countless eyes. He turned his head and saw a mummy raising its hands. Two light blades shot out from its forearms, looking like a Jedi Knight's laser sword.

Then, the heads of some others split open, and red light gathered in their 'mouths'.

bang bang bang...  

The magic bullets that flew over his head shattered them, and Yuuki looked up and around.

A hundred meters around me, no, the entire wasteland was changing. Countless arms stretched out, and God knows how many witch beasts were awakening. I finally understood what hint six meant.

[Tip 6: Enter the tower. Only by moving forward can you find a moment of peace.]

It's clearly stated that you can't stay where you are. These monsters are bound to be endless. I guess the situation in every tower should be similar. Players can't just stay by the door and easily survive for seven days.

"Come closer to me. We can't just sit there and take a beating."

"Sir, what about our deal?" Peggy shouted. He was very conflicted. The other party was still untrustworthy, but he had to leave. How could he get his companions into the tower?

Everyone can leave through the main gate, but to enter the tower one must be led by a tower explorer.

There is no tactic of adding fuel to the fire, nor is it possible to play a round-robin game. What's more important is that the previous blow is enough for them to increase the stakes.

This Mr. Li is stronger than Miss Philen, no, there is no comparison at all.

"I'm going out to lead people now. Can you hold on? Don't forget that those noble soldiers have bad intentions." Yuki was too lazy to explain. He watched as the monsters crawled out of the ground like zombies and touched the piles of corpses. After time was destroyed, they turned to ashes and formed thick fog.

"Let me ask you, after we go up one floor, will this place still be so lively?"

Peggy hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "No, each tower has a different number of floors, but the higher the floor, the safer it becomes."

"How is it safe?"

"Explorers who enter the next level will avoid being targeted for a certain period of time if they turn back."

Yuki immediately understood that this should be to obtain the authority of this floor, so as to avoid the situation where the players in front are fighting fiercely and the players who enter later take advantage.

New explorers who enter the tower will be targeted by the entire floor until they enter the next floor, and then this permission will be reset when they go to a new tower or exceed the stay time.

He didn't know how long the permission to go back would last, but it was definitely very short, a respite for achieving the goal of 'at least seven days'.

So this is what the 'moment of peace' in the prompt means.

He promised nothing to the rebels, but obtained important intelligence one after another.

It means a lot, and getting it for free makes people happier.

"Then we can just come back and pick them up when the time comes." Yuki had his own idea, thrusting his long sword forward. "Assault formation, follow me, Philen, suppressing fire."

A large amount of flying ash obscured the view, but the steps leading to the sky were still clearly visible.

Peggy was helpless. If they were real mercenaries, they would have been horrified by seeing such a horrific scene, but they could not retreat because they could never get back in once they left the tower.

Anyway, the really important people have already sneaked in, and I haven’t thought about going back. Let’s give it a try!

He gritted his teeth and picked up the shield.

"Brothers, follow me!"

The plan was simple. They would rush through the first floor first, and after confirming that the deal was reached, Yuki would use the "moment of peace" to bring in the rebels outside the tower.

Peggy didn't dare to put all her chips on the line, and Yuki also had to see whether these rebels were of any use. Verification hints were far from enough.

Then go to the next floor.

Yuki took the lead, and no one could match the witch beasts that emerged from the ground, but there were too many of them.

It was a bit like returning to the red moon and being chased by countless zombies, but the witch beasts and zombies in this copy were completely different things.

It is completely powered by soul crystals. Not only does it have amazing physical strength, it can also use various magics on its own.

Strengthening magic, attacking magic, stealth magic, groups of mummies flashed various lights like neon lights and swarmed up.

The one in front was jumping up and down like a melee wizard, and his energy formed various forms of weapons. The one behind him threw hundreds of light balls without distinguishing between friend and foe, and each one hit the ground like a cannonball exploding.

Level 4 magical beasts are of extraordinary level, but there are hundreds or thousands of them.

The sword energy cut more than a dozen witch beasts into two pieces, and those that came from both sides were nailed to death by the light spears. The former mountain of corpses turned into dust, but in a moment, hundreds of witch beast corpses were added.

The ground became bumpy, and witch beasts continued to awaken. He realized that this was the rule and it was impossible to kill them all.

Behind the guards formed by the array of more than 30 mercenaries, they skillfully harvested the soul crystals from the corpses. This "greedy" look made Yuki a little confused. It was such a late hour that they were still busy harvesting soul crystals.

Philen floated above their heads, shooting magic projectiles in all directions like a turret, knocking down groups of witch beasts, but the result made Yuki's eyes twitch slightly.

The earth has turned into a river of blood. Some witch beasts that were blown into two pieces are crawling in the pool of blood. Apart from taking out the soul crystals, they will never die. They even bite each other and incorporate the flesh and blood of their own kind into their own bodies.

Some grew wings on their backs, some had three heads and six arms, and some expanded like balloons, charging forward under heavy fire.

What a Shura Tower! It actually evolved through killing.

Yuki completely gave up the idea of ​​holding on firmly. Seven days was the requirement of the game, not the limit of the copy. If he quit at that time, all his efforts would be wasted.
