"It really doesn't make sense. There are witch beasts in the tower, but such a big city is empty." Jianshan Huangquan touched his cheek and was immediately interrupted by Philen.

"Who said it's empty? There are still quite a few players hunting outside, all planning to enter the mausoleum at the right time."

Yes, the seven towers are enemies of each other. Why should the Witch God waste his power and let the explorers kill each other? Whether it is soul crystals or props, humans will never lack reasons to kill.

Being a pacifist is useless. There are obviously a lot of clues hidden in the city outside, deliberately avoiding combat. You have to spend time and energy to decipher them.

"Seven towers, seven powers, seven days of restrictions, this feels so familiar."

Ever since the bloody disaster, Yuki has become very sensitive to numbers and looked around at everyone.

"Now you know why I'm in a hurry."

"That makes some sense, but there's a price to pay for being so impatient." Nanami Kento, whose IQ was clearly much higher, shook his head. "We haven't really explored the city properly. We don't even have a strategy for the route. Are we just going to climb up the stairs like this?"

"Yes, go straight up. I need clues to confirm my guess." Yuki nodded decisively, which made the office worker's face turn purple. He was a veteran and had never seen anyone enter the dungeon to go directly to find the final boss.

"This, this doesn't make sense."

"You think I'm taking a brainless risk?"

Nanami Kento's lips moved, but he couldn't speak. It was now almost certain that the witch spirit had divided the power, and this man had two towers in his hands before entering the second stage.

If he guessed right, he would have destroyed the Witch God's plan; even if he was wrong, as long as he retreated, the early advantage would not be lost.

"Don't rush to make a decision. Once you get closer to the Sorcerer God, you'll know His true state."

Yuki walked towards the stairs ahead. He had the power at his fingertips, so his first guess could be easily verified. As for whether the witch god was asleep or just pretending to sleep, wouldn't it be enough to just go and take a look at him?

If you can't wake up someone who is pretending to be asleep, it's because your slap in the face isn't loud enough. Besides, there's something Yuki has hidden deep in his heart.

Whether he is asleep or dozing, the witch god must wake up and create huge waves in this muddy water.

Should I attack the Sorcerer God first, only to be exhausted and then be killed by the other two? Or should I deal with the Judge first, only to be exhausted and then be crushed by the dungeon boss?

How can it be!

Chapter 5: The Witch God Has Awakened (K)

The current situation is both complicated and simple.

The Witch God's attitude is very clear. Just read the prompts backwards. Once he wakes up, all players will be his prey.

The Judge wants to kill me, and judging by Tiger Vanguard's willingness to take the risk, he's given plenty of carrots and sticks.

You cannot stay where you are. If you meet the Judge, they will fight directly. The latter just doesn't know how many players there are in the Shura Tower and is afraid to act rashly.

After the preliminary preparations, in their eyes, there are two people in the Ether Particles, there are several people in the Evil Elimination Team, and then "Taiyi" is a lone ranger. This strength makes them very wary.

So they turned to the War Orphans and Thorn Rose, which created an intelligence advantage, but Yuuki knew with his ass that the Judge would not completely trust them.

"They will definitely go find more players. According to Hiwa, there are still players from at least four factions left."

Yuuki muttered as he walked up the stairs. The enemy now formed a double cheese sandwich around him.

This is an unsolvable conspiracy, but Yuuki has found a glimmer of hope, that is, the judge is also a player, why can't he be the prey of the witch god?

The steps are gradually becoming lighter, it’s just that there is one more variable, and the new plan is gradually unfolding.

Yuki looked around and felt as if he was climbing among the clouds.

The hall they came from was covered by clouds. There were endless long steps going up without any support. Even if the witch god came out of the coffin, Newton would have to lie down directly in it.

This structure completely violates the common sense of physics. Fortunately, the long steps are more than ten meters wide, which is enough for dozens of people to walk side by side. Moreover, the players all have flying abilities or props, so they are not afraid of falling to their death.

But they didn't.

Yuki glanced at Rita and the others who looked nervous. He thought that none of their ancestors had ever entered the mausoleum, and he felt that even the air was filled with malice.

"Wow."

Isayama Yomi quietly hugged the girl from behind, and there was a scream. Yuki saw Rita's black hair stand up, and was scared to tears on the spot.

"Is this Huang Quan a child?" Philen looked speechless as he watched Huang Quan stroking the girl's head. Rita didn't appreciate it and was attacking him madly with her little fists.

"This is called livening up the team atmosphere. Everyone is so nervous. Didn't you notice that Huang Quan has been standing guard right beside us?"

Philen was stunned for a moment, then nodded imperceptibly.

"Stop, you can't finish climbing these long stairs." Yuki called everyone, and everyone realized the problem.

Their speed was not slow, but they couldn't even see the backs of the team of players in front of them, which was obviously abnormal.

"Mr. Li, I don't sense any spatial folding or direction misdirection abilities, which means this is not a maze."

The little girl named Lingling slowly shook her head. She had a low presence and with three captains around, she had almost no right to speak.

Yuuki looked directly at Nanami Kento, who adjusted his glasses and said, "Sergeant Bell was once a corpse hunter, specializing in scouts. That's for sure."

What is a corpse hunter?

Yuki didn't know which world this person came from, and chose to believe what the other party said. He was obviously a supporting player like Hiyori.

"So we're not standing still, but are still moving forward?"

"From the feedback from the props, our spatial coordinates are indeed constantly extending." The black-haired girl, with a kind of wild innocence, shook a bell covered with numbers in her hand. "Mr. Li, if there are no ghosts hitting the wall, we can retreat back the way we came."

"That's a waste of time." Yuki didn't even consider looking back. He looked up and could see endless stairs through the clouds.

This is neither scientific nor magical. Who would build an infinite staircase in their own home for no reason?

He originally thought that this was a maze-like spatial illusion, but as a professional, Lingling would definitely not make a mistake. He lowered his head and recalled all the clues since entering the copy.

The one walking ahead of us is 'Hall of Valor', they have entered the Skyclave Tower, wait, the Skyclave Tower?

Yuki's eyes narrowed. In the midst of his busy schedule, he had obtained information about various towers from the most inconspicuous mortal intelligence brokers. From what happened later, it could be seen that these brokers had extremely high professional ethics and their information was very accurate.

"What are you thinking about?" Yuki suddenly turned around and looked at Philen.

"Climbing, what else could it be?" Philen was puzzled. This was a monotonous and boring journey, and it was deep into the tiger's den. Everyone was very nervous.

The Tower of the Sky will turn your thoughts into reality. If you want to climb it, then climb endlessly.

"I understand. Everyone, focus on ignoring these stairs and just think about getting out of here."

Leave? There has to be a way out.

Everyone looked at each other. This was easier said than done, because all you could see was an endless staircase, just like a pervert would become erect when seeing a beautiful woman. The thought was instinctive.

But this does not pose a problem for the players. Self-hypnosis is a basic skill, and Rita and others can close their eyes and pull others forward.

"Get out, leave here. I don't want to climb. I just want to face the witch god."

Yuki didn't need to close his eyes, but let the idea spread in his brain, eventually occupying every inch of his mind, and then he moved forward firmly.

Level one, level two, level three.

The long staircase to heaven began to become blurry, and in the blink of an eye, it was as if a mischievous child had covered my eyes and I could not see anything.

The sudden light outage was very scary, like stepping on empty air and falling into the abyss.

"Is there really a change?"

"Hey, why can't I see anything? I clearly turned on the flashlight."

"Calm down and count yourselves."

Yuki could also only hear chaotic sounds, his heart was beating violently, and his emotions changed from joy to anxiety.

Beyond the long staircase was endless darkness, and there was the sound of clacking gears in one's ears. No one knew whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, or perhaps this change was worse than climbing the long staircase.

A mercenary instinctively wanted to retreat back to the long steps, but he heard a scream, followed by the sound of bones and flesh being shattered.

"Don't move! I know what's going on!"

Within two seconds, Yuki came back to his senses from his dazed state. This trap was really disgusting. Humans suddenly fell from the clouds into the abyss, and it was inevitable that they would panic.

"That was the power of the Sky Tower just now. We have now stepped into the Lightless Tower. Don't move. This tower is mainly composed of mechanisms."

The contents of each tower will be different every time a tower is explored, but the information about the city is freshly released, compiled by the explorers who have escaped in the past few days, so it will definitely not be wrong.

No light can be produced, but the names of "Tower of the Sky" and "Tower of No Light" have been heard. This step forward will inevitably advance the main storyline.

The atmosphere was a bit weird. Yuki felt that several eyes were focused on his vest. We agreed to be idiots together, but you secretly explored the copy?

Yuki didn't bother with such complaints and said directly: "Rita, light the way forward."

"Huh? I don't know any lighting magic."

"Fool, the authority of the witch god created a lightless world, and your purification is the brightest light."

Yuki cursed, and then he heard a rustling sound. The girl took out the soul crystal, crushed it, and purified the air around her. It was a weak soul torch, but it allowed everyone to see each other's faces and the horrific scene around them.

Above his head, a ceiling covered with spikes fell down, surrounded by black knives with two soft silk ribbons, and in the air there were fist-sized "bees", their tails were full of thin steel needles.

Silent and without any signs of life, even without any breath blocking them, the devil's eyes could not see these dead things.

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Just as Philen behind him hurriedly raised his staff, Yuki took a glance and was ecstatic.

There were hundreds of these creations, the closest of which was less than ten meters away. But looking at their distribution, most of them were surrounding him and Rita, while the space in the middle of the team for Philen, Lingling and Xiaowu was almost empty.

Does not attacking the most vulnerable ones mean looking down on them? Of course not. The first step of a lightless assassination is the most sudden, so of course you have to choose the main target.

This was not an instinctive defense mechanism, but a conscious act of targeting. He targeted me in order to reclaim authority.

Nanami Kento's face turned pale. He was not blind, so of course he saw the deployment of the witch god's troops. This was a conscious and targeted action. In other words—

It is possible that the witch god has really awakened.

Clang——

The blood-red blade was unsheathed, and the blood-red light cleared the surroundings. There was one thing about Yuki that was different from himself during the "Global Insect Disaster".

As one of the strongest players, he is qualified to use brute force to eliminate all threats, even second-tier bosses like Wu Ling cannot stop him.

"This is the clue you want. Now, follow me."

......

Strength can defeat cleverness, and strength can, to a certain extent, replace intelligence and speed up the attack.

As far as the Shura Tower and the War Tower are concerned, even if Yuki is a fool who just rushes forward, no one can stop him except Wu Ling. The only difference is the price.

"Not to mention, there are no witch spirits in the mausoleum."

Hey.

One foot stepped on the dark stairs, and the splashing lava emitted white smoke, but could not leave any trace.

They returned to the stairs, but this time the stairs turned black and were no longer endless.

Behind is the fiery red cloud, making people forget the huge crater just now. There are about a hundred steps in front, and the end of them goes deep into the dark sky.

The sky was like a broken mirror, covered with dense cracks, and only one piece had fallen off, revealing a dark entrance.

The so-called mausoleum defense is to replicate the contents of several high towers, and the Shura Tower and the War Tower are not included in it, which is enough to explain a lot of things.

"I said that He can't stop me unless He takes action personally." Yuki turned around. The journey that day was difficult and long. The material handed over to Hiyori was enough to write a story of more than 100,000 words.

Everyone in the team was exhausted and injured, and the number of people was reduced by nearly half. All the mercenaries were killed, leaving only Peggy, and the only soulless people left were Rita and Jies.

Everyone looked at Yuki in confusion and excitement. He had led the team all the way here and was now cutting through the steps and conducting ignition experiments.

They were already accustomed to this kind of mysterious and powerful operation, and turned their gaze to the end of the stairs with fear.

Skyland, Purgatory, Elves, Desire, and Darkness: several unfamiliar authorities appeared one after another, each with a different appearance, but the core was the same:

These defense mechanisms are delaying the tower explorers and are specifically targeting the Soulless and Yukiro.

It could be considered a coincidence once or twice, but it would be terrifying if it happened every time. Even if Yuki deliberately walked at the end of the team, he would be enveloped by the rising volcano.

"The Sorcerer God's condition is very strange. He consciously chooses his targets, but he doesn't adjust after repeated failures." Nanami Kento took a breath, a little confused.

The defense is very powerful, but too rigid. To deal with Jiecheng, there must be at least a witch spirit in charge.

"This is what's called a nap, right? If a mosquito buzzes in your ear while you're half asleep, what would you do?"

The metaphor is strange but accurate, and everyone immediately understands the state of the witch god. He can hear mosquitoes flying around him, and then consciously slap them with his hands, but he never wakes up to look for insecticide.

"But if a mosquito really bites him, the Witch God will open his eyes. No wonder that 'Hall of Valor' hid after seeing us." Isayama Yomi felt tremendous pressure and finally understood why the two players who caught up with him did not contact him.

In the boundless forest, they finally caught up with the players of 'Hall of Valor', but the two sides did not face each other directly. At that time, they wondered if it would be more convenient to explore the tower together?

"Hint five requires you to stay in the mausoleum for seven days before returning. Are they trying to save time?"

"No, in that case, they should just stay at the Infinite Stairs. Those two must have realized that something was wrong with the Sorcerer God and came in to investigate. Since someone was ahead exploring the way, they were happy to make way."
