"I really didn't realize you were so brave that you dared to be among the first group to enter the tower." Yuki really didn't expect this. He didn't know whether to say he was ignorant or fearless.

"This is my mission." Rita paused and smiled confidently. "I'm glad that I have powerful allies to help me on this mission."

Only now can we be truly frank and honest with each other. Both parties are in the same boat and no one has a way out.

"So what's your plan?"

"Well, no one can leave the Tower of the Sorcerer God, so there is no record of it."

Yuki's expression froze, his eyes becoming dangerous: "Then the Soulless should know what to do."

"According to legend, when the Witch God attempts to awaken from his dream, pure souls can melt his hand reaching out to the earth, causing him to fall into a longer eternal sleep. In this way, the world will be purified, the curse he spread will gradually disappear, and the true sun will hang high in the sky..."

The girl's voice was very nice, with ups and downs, like a choir, but Yuki's eyes twitched when he heard it.

According to legend?

If it weren't for the hint that it was involved, if it weren't for the completely opposite mythology of Hiyori, if it weren't for Yuuki's in-depth understanding of the continent, he would have been impatient.

He knew that the natives of the Red Earth Continent had a short lifespan, and the core reason was the ubiquitous aura of the witch god. Moreover, with the widespread use of soul crystals, this "pollution" was getting worse.

The soulless are the purest souls in this dungeon, and even witchcraft can purify them, so the legend is somewhat credible.

"Wait a minute, tell me how to melt his hands. What should we do if the witch god has woken up?" Yuki interrupted.

"I don't know, there's no such record." The girl looked silly.

All the players covered their faces in pain. It turned out that clearing the dungeon was not that easy.

"Take your time to look for them. At least the Soulless Ones are very useful. I brought a large group of them this time, which is definitely more than the number needed in the myth." Yuki didn't hesitate. Now he knew what to do, it was just a matter of how to do it.

First of all, he had to know where this place was, where the witch god's coffin was, and what the attitudes of the various camps were.

[Player Yuki, welcome to the Tower of the Sorcerer God]

When the explorers have overcome numerous difficulties and truly arrived at the Kingdom of God, follow your instincts and seek your mission.

[Hint 1: The Witch God will fully awaken after seven days. Players can choose to terminate the resurrection ceremony or defeat the Witch God.]

[Tip 2: Each tower will have a unique soul mark. Killing players or dungeon characters in other towers will receive rewards and marks.]

[Hint 3: Based on the faction, when the mark reaches a certain level, you will be able to pass through the mausoleum gate.]

[Hint 4: Players will inherit the progress of the first stage. The Tower of the Sorcerer God has seven floors. Players will be assigned to floors according to their original exploration progress.]

[Hint 5: Please enter the mausoleum within seven days, otherwise you will be wiped out. Complete Hint 1, or stay in the mausoleum for more than seven days before you can return.]

You could hear a pin drop. Every player was listening to the prompts with different expressions. It took half a minute for them to slowly come back to their senses.

The soulless ones have no conspiracy, they are telling the truth, and the first stage is indeed a foreshadowing, closely related to every clue.

"We are emitting red light."

"This should be the imprint of hint two. According to hint three, explorers ascending from different towers are in a hostile state."

"What's wrong with prompt one? Why isn't there an option to revive the Witch God?"

"Hint five is also wrong. How can the termination ceremony and subjugation of the witch god be of the same difficulty?"

Various chaotic discussions were heard. They were all experienced players and they realized there was a problem as soon as they heard the prompt.

The biggest problem is in hint 1. I have a familiar feeling, it is very similar to the "Global Insect Plague". Both the Lurker and the Guardian can choose to destroy the Queen.

Yuki had relevant experience and could sense something was wrong.

popping.

He clapped his hands to quiet everyone down. Since entering the new stage, the prompts were not as abstract as before. There was no need to guess, as the prompts already told the players what to do.

First, determine your current location, which floor of the Tower of the Witch God you are on.

Second, find other explorers and obtain enough marks from them to enter the mausoleum within seven days.

Extending from these two points, Yuki had countless ideas in his mind, such as how to use the counterintuitive fact that the seniors were in different towers and were enemies, but they were as close as could be. Maybe he could lure those two out.

"Pre-war state, everyone first explore outside and find an exit."

Yuki walked in front, and everyone was looking around, seeing the huge statues on both sides and feeling their own insignificance.

According to Philen, they felt like they had arrived in the land of giants. The dome was over a hundred meters high, and the chandeliers were like stars.

The palace was not dark. The statues had double horns on their heads and narrow wings. They were obviously built in the image of Shura witches. The walls were covered with murals, in which you could see these monsters stepping on corpses and roaring towards the sky in a hideous manner.

Rita took out a book from somewhere and kept flipping through it, then whispered to Philen who was monitoring her. The latter's worldview was similar to the copy, so they could start a conversation.

Yuuki was too lazy to understand the background story and just kept clearing the way ahead with an increasingly strange expression on his face.

It went too smoothly. No powerful witch beast jumped out to stop him. When he approached the giant gate, the gate automatically opened a gap. He kept in touch with Hayasaka Ai and found that the War Tower was similar.

Apart from the different decorations of the buildings, there was no obstruction, and after about ten minutes, Yuki saw an empty well.

The diameter is over 200 meters, and there are countless spiral staircases along the wall of the well. Looking down, you can see strange red lights flashing, and if you listen carefully, you can hear bursts of ghostly howls.

Yuki stretched out his hand to the well, rubbed it with his fingertips, and felt a sticky smell similar to blood. When he withdrew his arm, the feeling disappeared again.

"If we stay on the first floor of Shura Tower, we should climb out of here?" Nanami Kento licked his lips, which was chilling.

This cave is definitely not a good place, it looks creepy.

It is not difficult for the evil-fighting team to survive seven days, but as veterans, they are all very clear about the nature of the game. Do you want to slack off and get through the dungeon comfortably?

Sorry, you are digging a hole for yourself. Better days are yet to come.

"Let's go. We don't need to climb the tower in reverse. We are almost at the exit." Yuki didn't want to go into the empty well, so he went around it from both sides, sticking to the wall. He could faintly hear the sound of wind, and the cold air poured in along the corridor.

A white light appeared in front of her. It was an open door. The temperature dropped suddenly, causing Rita to wrap her robe tightly. As the magic circle appeared under her feet, she felt warm again.

Feren said nothing. She had a lot of strange magic that she learned from an elf.

"Thank you, I knew Philen was the best." The girl immediately hugged her.

"Let go. I still have to watch you."

"I can hold you so I can keep an eye on you better. Ji Si, come here quickly. It's so warm holding Philen."

After all, he is just a child. After realizing that this place is not so dangerous, he became active again. However, he is not as dull as Lieutenant Chris.

Yuki listened to the sounds coming from behind and didn't mind the relaxed atmosphere of the team. He just held the knife and walked through the door. He squinted slightly because of the light, and then his pupils contracted.

Is this the Tower of the Witch God?

He found himself standing above the clouds. As far as the eye could see, he saw seven tall towers, red, black, and blue, and he finally saw the top of the tower.

The spires are spiral-shaped and evenly distributed on the edge of a giant island, just like pillars connecting the sky to the earth, and then connected to the giant island by a covered bridge.

The covered bridge is several thousand meters long, with giant statues of Shura witches on both sides. Below is a sea of ​​clouds, which is shining with the same dark red light as the tower.

Switching to the demon's vision, Yuki could see a huge flow of energy flowing into the giant island, and on the other side of the corridor bridge was a huge city that Yuki could not describe in words.

The architectural style of the temples, large and small, is somewhat similar to that of the Mayan civilization on Earth. They are staggered in height, with squares, sculptures, and countless stairs in between.

In the center of the temple is a rectangular tower, which is black in color and carved with dense golden lines whose meaning is unknown.

wow-

Thunder flashed overhead, illuminating shocked faces.

The sky was vast, the temple was magnificent, and the city was even larger than one could imagine, but everyone's eyes, including the weakest mercenary, were focused on the black tower.

It was a tombstone, the mausoleum where the witch god rested.

Chapter 6 Tiger Vanguard (K)

Wow, I have to say, entering this new stage is truly eye-opening.

In terms of area, the entire Red Moon City is only one-tenth of this place, and the Demon Hospital is not even as big as a temple.

In just two instances, Yuki witnessed a million-ton aerial warship, giant insects as big as hills, a boundless sea of ​​insects, and an indescribable mausoleum before his eyes.

It is supported by seven giant pillars and stands tens of thousands of meters above the red earth continent like a drilling platform, with its feet on the earth and connected to the sun and the moon.

It has a strange sense of art, with countless statues and murals telling epic stories, and every symbol is a work of art.

Humans cannot imagine how such a wonder was created, or why the existence that can do this eroded the Red Earth Continent. Those wizards are neither weak nor strong, and all civilizations are gifts from the wizard god.

If you remove the witch god, this is just an ordinary world at the medieval level without many fantasy elements.

The entire team has dispersed, trying to find clues from all around, and then report to Yuuki one by one. Yuuki is more like a relay station, using "shared reading" to pass the clues to Hiyori for reasoning, and finally summarize.

There are four camps, including analytical talents like Shiina Hiwa, Western fantasy experts like Philen, the Evil Extermination Team and War Orphans whose IQs are above average, and Rita as a reference.

"The first tip is the biggest problem. It directly defines the players' positions. I don't know what players who cooperate with the Alliance should do. But on the other hand, that Sorcerer God has no intention of letting any player go?"

"The towers are in different states. The Shura Tower and the War Tower are dim, especially the War Tower. This is probably because the Alliance didn't have time to send in a wizard as a sacrifice."

"The bridge is more like an energy transport pipeline. Because the energy density is too high, Mr. Yuki can't cut it off even with all his strength. We need to investigate whether this energy flows directly into the mausoleum."

"You can enter the other five towers, but you'll encounter the same enemies and rules as before. In other words, those who tried to take advantage of the situation before will have to try again."

"I'm collecting murals. They all depict war or slaughter, which fits the tower's characteristics. But I find it strange. If they all happened on the Red Earth Continent, the wars would be too frequent."

"Mr. Yuki has already asked Rita. The Soulless do appear randomly. I've combined over a dozen myths. Some say they're the bloodline of heroes, others say they're a demonic curse. I can't rule out the possibility that they're the influence of previous players."

Hiyori's voice is gentle and clear, and she can always turn boring analysis into a wonderful story. As her experience increases, she becomes more and more confident in making judgments. For example, the origin of the soulless can be associated with the previous players from the "Global Sea of ​​Insects".

In the insect nest, the relics left by a certain boss caused great trouble for everyone, turning the raid into a fierce battle.

"Some kind of genetic item. If the Witch God was killed by players, then the players who dealt with him must have been at epic level or above, so it is possible that it has affected him until now." Yuki touched his chin, feeling that something was wrong.

"Could it be that the Soulless One is also a prop, and a player wants to resurrect it?" Mai said with a look of 'Don't scare me'. They had experienced similar things in the blood disaster.

"Even the Sorcerer God could be a player." Hayasaka, determined to scare her, ignored her senior's glare and looked at Yuuki: "How long do we have to wait?"

Yuki originally thought that the plot shouldn't be so bloody, and it would be a battle between two big guys after all. But from the hint, it shouldn't be, it feels more like a punitive order.

No matter whether the players can do it or not, just press the Witch God into the coffin and kill him.

"I'll deal with the players. You guys focus on clearing the dungeon and searching for clues. Protect those Soulless Ones. They'll definitely be of great use."

The division of labor is clear, and we have enough manpower now. It's time to take a two-pronged approach.

But I want to be with you.

Hayasakaton moved his mouth, but he knew the seriousness of the matter and didn't say anything.

Isn't the purpose of the team's existence to share the pressure with Yuuki so that he can deal with the main conflict?

"Thank you for your hard work. Be careful of the two people in the portrait and wait for orders." Yuki nodded slightly. If the people who shared the reading were not spiritual beings, he would not care about Miss Kaguya's face and would have hugged them one by one.

"No flirting with anyone, especially Rita and Huang Quan."

"According to Senior Sister, Philen will be fine?"

"Of course not!"

Yuuki was kicked out of the group chat and couldn't help but smile. This smile seemed unfathomable in the eyes of the Flame Pillar and others.

This Mr. Li is so amazing, it's like he has a team of advisors with him, able to analyze clues from the smallest details. Does he have extraordinary analytical skills, or is he an intelligent machine pretending to be a human?

"According to hint one, the players should have a common enemy, but because of hint two, it will be difficult to find other players to cooperate. I suggest keeping your distance and wait until you have enough marks on the plot characters to enter the mausoleum."

Yuki didn't mention the plot characters, but at least players can sign contracts with each other and there is a possibility of cooperation. All plot characters except the soulless ones are enemies.

Everyone nodded. They didn't trust the people in the War Tower, so at most they would keep their distance.

Tip 2 encourages killing each other, because no one knows how many other explorers need to be killed to get enough marks, but think about it, there are still seven days, so the time should be enough.

"So everyone, do you want to sit back and wait, or take the initiative to hunt down the tower explorers?" Yuki asked another question, which foreshadowed two tactics.

"Actively hunting is risky. I suggest finding a temple to hide in and see what happens." Nanami Kento, a cautious man, pointed at Rita, who was flipping through a book. "Besides, there are them. The Soulless are highly resistant to the power of the Witch God and are too vulnerable to players."

Whether it's 'Invisibility' or 'Purification', it's completely useless to the players. Any extraordinary player can kill them all.

Unfortunately, they couldn't learn from the War Tower and hide in the tower. But don't forget that thousands of wizards were climbing out of that empty well.

"No, this is too passive. I want to gather all the marks as soon as possible and start the next step."

"What kind of passive method is this? We are not just hiding. We can use this time to slowly collect clues." Nanami Kento is also a military strategist and is not so easily persuaded.

Since the job of gathering clues is done by the experts, I can focus on dealing with the players, especially Ulquiorra and Deidara.

Yuki has always been concerned about the duo. So far, he is the only lone ranger, and it is very likely that he is tracking him.

But the senior sister's identity had to be kept secret, so she said something else: "Have you forgotten that in places like this, the wizard's strength will be enhanced? What if we delay for too long and get besieged?"

They have done experiments. This giant island is like a high-radiation area. The aura of the witch god is more than ten times stronger, and the soul crystals have become very active. The wizards serve as filters for the human body, and their abilities come from the witch god, so of course there will be improvements.
