Chapter 40

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL

[Ding, your skill Thunder has been strengthened to LV. 4!]

[Your skill Gale Strike has been strengthened to LV. 4!]

[Your ability Oracle has been strengthened to LV. 4!]

[Ding, your body is undergoing a B-grade strengthening. Your strength has been enhanced by 120 points and your agility by 103 points!]

[Current attributes: 209 strength, 85 vitality, 225 agility!]

After selecting the abilities that needed strengthening, a series of system notifications rang out.

As for why he did not strengthen the Starsould Flash skill, Stark had his reasons.

This SSS-grade ability was currently extremely convenient for him to use.

It was not that he did not want to strengthen it, but the main reason was that the skill was too advanced, directly reaching the level of a God like the Starlight Spirit.

If he wanted to advance it, just like the Body of Zeus, he would need a specific divinity to strengthen it. These could only be strengthened when he had the opportunity in the future!

However, it was still alright. Anyway, for Stark, the strength provided by the SSS-grade Starsoul Flash was enough.

Looking at the system, the original 20,000 crystals were now reduced to 5000 only.

Stark felt that his strength had received a new upgrade.

Just by clenching his fist, he could feel that the strength within had increased by an unknown amount. To the current him, bending a steel bar was as easy as bending a large candy.

He was at least twice as strong as before!

After this reward period, the green poison calamity would descend in a while. At that time, it would be a new round of apocalypse for the current zombie world.

Stark finished eating and waited for the food to digest.

Three hours later, the Demon Tower opened again.

Just before the Demon Tower opened, Stark went to the convenience store to eat some canned food to ensure that his body had enough energy and was in the best combat state.

Stark spent 2000 crystals without hesitation and entered the Demon Tower again.

“Would you like to spend 2000 crystals to begin from the 120th floor, your highest level?”

At this moment, the system notification appeared again.

“I can start from there directly?” Stark was a little surprised.

Glancing at the remaining 3000 crystals, Stark still chose to teleport to the 120th floor.

Otherwise, he would waste even more time and crystals if he continued fighting like this.

As for the experience points, Stark wasn’t too worried. As long as he had the ability to kill high-level Transcendent monsters, he didn’t have to worry about the lack of experience points.

Roar!

On the 150th floor of the Demon Tower, the roars of the giant beasts were deafening.

After the 150th floor, mutated giant wolfhounds appeared in the Demon Tower!

Although they were around level 15, they were a few levels higher than zombies.

Monsters of the same level would differ significantly in strength according to their race.

Transcendent humans could easily kill a zombie at the same level. However, it was a different story for the metal devourers from yesterday, a mechanical Transcendent creature. It would be tough for a Transcendent human at the same level to deal with it.

As for this mutated giant beast, it would be even more ferocious and terrifying at the same level. Currently, if an ordinary Transcendent wanted to reach this floor, it would probably be around level 25.

Stark reached this floor at level 17 without any injuries. He was definitely the first place that surpassed all the players!

“Starsoul Flash!”

Stark also had to get serious, and he used all of his abilities!

The monster’s damage to him was also considerable. Therefore, in order to advance further, he had to be careful!

130 levels!

140 levels!

145 levels!

150 levels!

“Ding, congratulations to the player for reaching level 18!”

——

After a full four hours, Stark had only cleared 30 floors, advancing by one level.

Today, his speed had obviously started to slow down.

Of course, compared to other players of the same level, he was many times faster!

He finally stopped here because this floor was covered with mutated beasts.

Stark was powerful, sure, but the strength of the mutated beasts was not weak.

Under the chain paralysis of the Lightning Chain, Stark was able to dodge the attacks of many of the beasts.

Even with his Sword of God’s full power, he could only kill 2-3 giant beasts!

This was with him strengthening his skills and attributes today. Otherwise, he probably would not be able to deal any damage to the giant beasts.

Of course, the more effort he put in, the greater the rewards!

[Ding, you have killed a mutated wolf. Obtained 7,800 experience points!]

[Obtained 242 crystals!]

[Ding, you have killed a mutated wolf. Obtained 7,800 experience points!]

[Obtained 235 crystals!]

..

A series of notifications sounded in his mind.

At this moment, a silver light suddenly jumped out from the corpse of a fallen mutated wolf.

It was a pair of shoes with a silver light.

“A shoe-type Transcendent equipment?!”

Stark recognized it at a glance.

[Equipment: Boots of Hope

Level: D

Description: Even during the Doomsday Era, there must always be hope guiding the survival of life.

Effect: Wearer’s Agility +12]

Stark was pleased.

For weapon-type equipment, he already had an SSS-grade Sword of God. All other low-level equipment would naturally not be of interest to him.

However, this type of protective equipment was different.

He did not have any defensive equipment at the moment. As long as one dropped, he could use it immediately.

Without any nonsense, Stark directly picked up the Boots of Hope on the ground. The shoes in his hand instantly turned into specks of light and disappeared. When they reappeared, they were already on his feet.

At least, the Lord God had shown some sympathy in the apocalyptic era. Transcendent equipment dropped from killing monsters did not require much time and effort to be worn. One only needed to have the thought of wearing it in their mind.

At the same time, it also protected the safety of Transcendents.

“With these shoes, I feel much lighter. It looks like I can still challenge a few more floors!”

Once Stark put on the shoes, his entire body became light and agile. After all, no matter how strong the Starsoul Flash was, it was only a skill. It was mainly used to move, and it consumed a lot of spirit energy. He couldn’t just use it to walk normally, right? that would be too stupid.

The appearance of the Boots of Hope had perfectly solved Stark’s dilemma.

Therefore, after obtaining the boots of Hope, Stark, who was in a great mood, chose to continue the challenge without hesitation.

At this moment, when facing a ferocious giant beast, he did not need to use the Starsoul Flash. With a light tap of his foot, Stark could easily dodge the beasts’ attacks, reducing the consumption of spiritual power by quite a bit,

210 floors!

215 floors!

220 floors!

221 floors…

Suddenly, on this floor…

A silver light flashed once again.
