I am a reincarnation player.

Admittedly, some players would let their companions hide and move alone, but after entering the tower, they could only move forward and backward as a group, but he was wandering around outside alone. Combined with the broker's words -

As soon as they left, they only visited a few towers briefly. They were looking for someone with very clear characteristics, and they were looking for the Lone Ranger.

Yuki was a little confused. He had many enemies, but these two were definitely not something that Zhou could invite. Besides, Zhou didn't know his true identity.

Aether particles? Impossible. These two are clearly from other camps. There's no way they can be classified as part of the Aether particles.

Yuki 'knew' them, so there was no need to speculate. If he was right, those two were heading to the Shura Tower. They must be very powerful to be able to track him down, and the Hundred Demons Night Parade might not be able to stop them.

"Also, no control skills were used on the dungeon characters. Was this carelessness, or was it a deliberate trap?"

Yuki used all his brain power but did not release any murderous intent, because he had been exposed and it was impossible for him to kill everyone along the way.

Find out who is looking for me?

This thought was wiped out as soon as it appeared. A real pervert should abandon all curiosity and hide behind the scenes honestly.

As for how to deal with it, Yuki already had a plan.

"Does the Brokerage Guild have any guidance?"

There is more than one way to conquer a dungeon. Sometimes players also have to humble themselves and obey the rules of the dungeon.

"Five hundred soul crystals to hide the news, one thousand soul crystals to spread false news." The broker immediately quoted the price and was also surprised that the chosen tower explorer did not choose to silence him.

It really is a one-stop professional service.

Yuki smiled, feeling lucky that he had become familiar with the rules of the Red Earth Continent in the past few days, and did not use the mindset of a mobile natural disaster player to arbitrarily decide life and death.

Yes, these brokers are as weak as ants and can be killed with a breath, but they want money, why do you want to take their lives?

"What if I want you to spread the truth and lead them to me?"

The broker was immediately speechless. "Is there any need to spread this? Your information is probably all over the place."

"To be precise, we concealed the false news for two days, and then spread the real news to lure them over."

"Your request is a bit complicated and requires the mobilization of a lot of resources."

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me the number."

"Well, 1500 soul crystals may not guarantee success, but please trust the guild's professional ethics. We will definitely do our best."

"make a deal."

Yuki directly took out the soul crystal. After mastering the Shura Tower, he spent several days traveling and knew the Red Earth Continent better than any other player. These brokers had great powers and were like another alliance.

"Thank you for your patronage. I'll make the arrangements right away. Within half a day, the news of the discovery of the lone Chosen Explorer in the Sky Tower will reach every eye. This is the only kind of information available on the market. Only the guild's top brass know the true situation."

The broker nodded and hurried away. All of a sudden, the mercenaries, merchants, and even the swindlers surrounding the tower all dispersed.

Damn it, I didn’t buy fake news.

Yuki thought of those blurry portraits and suddenly felt a little emotional. These people were not even wizards and did not have any extraordinary powers, but they could play a big role in the plot and might be a strategy route.

Fortunately, I traveled around the continent and actively looked for traces of other players.

Shaking his head slightly, Yuki didn't know whether the two were looking for him, but it was always better to be prepared.

He walked towards the tower, not actually afraid of his identity being exposed, because the players of "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" could testify that Yuuki's "camp" was a two-man team, not a lone ranger.

"Just don't connect the me who entered the tower with the me in the Shura Tower." Yuki touched the mask on his face, fortunately he was careful enough.

Feeling the spying in the dark, he didn't trust the broker's professional ethics. The news that a player entered the tower alone was definitely worth a lot of money.

A familiar touch came, and the cold and hard tower wall pulled the body in like mud.

Come find me if you dare.

........

"Hey, Mr. Four Blades, I got the latest information from those intelligence dealers. A lone player appeared in the Skyclave Tower."

A lively voice was heard in the forest, and the blond Deidara walked quickly towards them.

"Behind? We've already been to the Skyclave Tower." Ulquiorra glanced at the Shura Tower not far away. The anomaly there was the heaviest, with thousands of troops surrounding it like an iron barrel.

No one is allowed to approach, and tower explorers are recruited to form a punitive army.

"Maybe I missed it. The information provided by those brokers was very accurate and there has never been a problem. I tried mind control and they didn't lie." Deidara answered nonchalantly.

They deliberately did not hide their whereabouts. After all, anyone who knew someone was looking for them would be curious, and as long as they conducted a reverse investigation, they could catch them.

"It could also be fake news, tricking us into thinking we're all lost." The pale-skinned boy said expressionlessly, shaking his head slightly. "Even the prophecies of the Hundred Eyes of Truth can be wrong. Anything can be fabricated."

"I'm not worried about that. Starting the 'Judgment Mission' proves we've come to the right place. The key is who the target is. Lingering mist and using a knife are too broad."

Deidara sighed. He hated business trips, especially when the goals were abstract and dangerous.

"That player is related to Taichi, and the higher-ups take him very seriously." Ulquiorra's voice was flat, like a dead person. "So the mission is to kill him and all the players who cooperated with him."

"Is 'Taiyi' really an organization? The records say..."

"I don't know. I didn't join the reincarnation game at that time." Ulquiorra interrupted him and looked at the surrounding woods. "Someone is following us. It's a player."

"Curiosity kills the cat. They think we must have some secrets since we are not following the main storyline and running around." Deidara remained nonchalant and snapped his fingers lightly.

Boom boom boom boom——

Something in the air exploded, like a series of bombs exploding, and dozens of fireballs rose up.

Several dark figures walked out of the fireball in a somewhat embarrassed manner. The first one was dressed neatly, wearing sunglasses, and his golden hair was neatly combed behind his head.

The shattered windbreaker was bleeding, his eyes were full of fear, and he had no idea why the air exploded. The heavy feeling of oppression made him change his mind.

Time is running out to escape from the Purgatory Tower, and he must complete prompt three before the tower is activated.

"I'm Weeks from the 'Survivor' camp. What are your names?"

No one answered. The blond young man had a playful smile on his face, while the player who didn't look like a human had a grim expression.

Weeks lowered his stance and extended his right hand. "I'm sorry for following you two. We have no hostility and would like to cooperate with you."

"It's impossible to bypass the prompts. Give up as soon as possible."

"Oh, so you're going to join the Shura Tower players."

"No."

"That's to kill them and take control of a tower ourselves." Weeks looked very knowledgeable and ambitious. "To be honest, we have this plan too. Using the Alliance's crusade order, we will definitely be able to reach the highest point..."

"No."

The answer was still cold, which immediately made Wicks' biological CPU smoke. Unable to bypass prompt three, and not planning to use the Shura Tower, he was still wandering outside.

Could it be that he came to the dungeon to commit suicide, waiting to be killed by the game?

"Forget it, there are too many people causing trouble here. Let's go to the Skyclave Tower." Ulquiorra no longer wanted to answer and turned to leave. "The leader has just entered the 'Monster' level. I'll give you two minutes to take care of them."

What did you say!

This tyranny made the 'survivor' furious. He had already admitted his mistake, but why did he still want to kill him?

No one gave them a chance to explain. Deidara stood up with a smile and snapped his fingers when Wicks' whole body mutated and swelled up like a monster.

Snapped.

Without any warning, the clay spilled from his palms and expanded rapidly, causing Wicks, who had grown giant claws, to raise his head and open his mouth.

Shadows covered him. A giant clay ship, more than ten meters high, blocked out the sunlight. Countless gun barrels were pointed at the 'survivors' and the hundreds of wizards who had heard the news.

"Welcome to appreciate the art of explosion." Deidara snapped his fingers again and looked at the mutant player rushing towards him. Before he got close to him, he inhaled the clay particles in the air and exploded from the inside out.

"One and a half minutes is enough."

Chapter 6: War Orphans (K)

Is this the War Tower?

Yuki entered the tower, and it was indeed a space completely different from the Shura Tower. The sky above his head was full of symbols of swords, spears, and halberds, and the earth was like a chessboard, divided by black and white squares.

Yes, it is a chessboard like a chess piece. Apart from that, there is nothing extra. It even makes the tower look very small. There are only a hundred squares and a kilometer from one end of the chessboard to the other.

But Yuki tried, he couldn't jump directly to the other side with a standing long jump, he could only move one square in a "M" shape.

Once you step into it, these blocks will evolve into various battlefields, such as hills, plains or mountains. Those who enter the tower will serve as chess pieces to play against the minions of the war witch.

This game contains certain rules, and the lepton communicator has become useless. It is obvious that there is a spatial barrier between the blocks.

But unlike the strategy guide, Yuuki did not receive any quest from the witch spirit.

"Could it be that I have mastered the Shura Tower and am on the same level as it, so it can't issue any missions to me?"

Yuki stepped on the head of an iron rhinoceros. It was this thing that had just rushed out of the woods with a group of witch beasts. This was a very clever ambush. First, they suppressed them with javelins, and then the witchcraft turned the earth into a swamp. The witch beasts like armored cavalry advanced like a forest, and then, there was nothing else.

Absolute force suppression can make any tactics ineffective, and the witch beasts here are weaker than those in the Shura Tower.

"No, I should say I've become stronger and broken through the bottleneck."

After realizing this, Yuki became bolder. The grid was like a maze, and there were no signs like "stairs". He was in a dilemma as he had not yet analyzed the pattern.

But Yuki no longer needed to look for patterns. The shortest distance between two points was a straight line. He stepped on the dozen or so squares around him like a road roller, then slowly bent down, chopped off the head of the steel rhinoceros, and pulled out a piece of its arm.

Unlike the Shura Tower where the enemy corpses were discarded carelessly, the witch beasts in the War Tower would eat people. Yuki's expression was tense, but he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the arm was strong and powerful, belonging to a wizard. He pried open his palm, revealing the silver headphones inside.

The spirit particle communicator, as soon as they stepped into the same block, Yuki could sense it. Obviously, there was an internal conflict in the team. A wizard snatched the communicator and was killed by the wizard beast. Yuki was very familiar with this tactic of taking advantage of the opponent's force.

"Mr. Yuki, we've entered a strange battlefield. Our mission is to catch a traitor. Then, those noble tower explorers decided to end their cooperation and respond to the alliance's call."

[Don't worry, I followed their wishes, thinking that if you come, you might run into them halfway.]

[It just so happened that they were very interested in something like the Spirit Communicator, which allows real-time communication within a space, so I deliberately let the assassin steal it.]

The Lingzi communicator has a recording function. When the clear voice came, Yuki smiled.

Having Shiina Hiyori is worry-free. She calculated that he would come, but she couldn't give up her progress in the strategy, so she simply borrowed the NPC's hand to pass the message. They are not players and cannot hear the recording inside.

If you take him out of the tower, Yuki will sense it immediately. It doesn't matter if you can't take him out. You can always meet him halfway by spending some time.

[Everyone entering the Tower of War will enter at one point, and then go to different directions based on the color of the blocks.]

Yuuki focused, Hiyori must have walked a long way, and there was no need for him to analyze it himself.

We can think of it like a chess board. Each piece has its own rules for movement. Of course, everyone can reach the end point, but if you want to join us, please follow the rules below.

The mountains and forests disappeared, and Yuki stood on the chessboard again.

"Using the white square in the middle of the end of the board as the reference point, should we select all white squares and proceed in a zigzag pattern?"

He held the knife and smiled contentedly. The senior students must be fighting hard in a certain grid ahead.

"Well, wait a moment."

.......

"Why are you a deserter?"

The corpses of witch beasts filled the valley. A circular defensive formation was rapidly devoured, and a corner of the originally stable circle was missing, triggering a chain reaction that made the entire formation shaky.

The man wearing a blindfold, who gave people a terrifying and oppressive feeling, was growling, and the saber in his hand was trembling slightly, but hundreds of witch beasts separated him, and he could only kill the opponents with his eyes.

Across the valley was an Alliance tower explorer dressed in black and carrying a coffin. Because they had taken the initiative to unite with the nobles, the Tower of War was a collective attack. Thorn Rose, the War Orphans and the Alliance nobles acted together.

Although they didn't know what was in the coffin, the Alliance Tower Explorers were an indispensable force. But just now, they suddenly retreated, throwing the remaining people into the beast tide.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Bradley, we have to obey God's command and go to the Shura Tower to fight." A man bowed slightly, and there was no apology in his old tone.

"You are afraid that we will capture the second tower as well, which will make it even more uncontrollable." Bradley saw through the other party at a glance, but put down his saber and had no intention of continuing to question.

This is meaningless. The further back you go on the chessboard, the harder it becomes. It's already very difficult to get here. Now you should find a way to retreat and use the moments of peace in each square to restore your strength.

The Alliance tower explorers continued to retreat, using coffins to hide in the dark, while endless witch beasts kept pouring in from both sides of the valley, almost causing the already small number of mercenaries to collapse.

Once these miscellaneous soldiers dispersed, the player was exposed and had to face the firepower directly. The man swept his eagle-like eyes over and frowned.

The war orphans suffered heavy losses, with only the priest and Miss Violet left. However, the Briar Rose was somewhat unexpected. Although they were obviously weaker, they had managed to hold on until now without any casualties.

"Complementary skills, superb teamwork. Could it be that a single team has gone through more than five dungeons?"

Bradley was a little confused. Generally speaking, teammates are not fixed and a few new people will be brought in so that the team can improve together.

But they had done their best and could not expect more.

He has sharp eyes and can instantly tell who is slacking off and who is trying their best, but these witch beasts are too troublesome.

There was fire suppression on the top of the hill, and spears fell like rain. These things were comparable to heavy armor-piercing bullets, and the defensive witchcraft was pierced like paper.
