Chapter 201: Endless Tower: a trial ground made up of endless labyrinths
“It seems that as long as I stay here for a long time, I’ll be able to train much faster than when I was in the Empire Era!” Athena also felt the strangeness of this world.
“That’s right, but there’s no doubt that I’ll be able to train faster in that city,” Jerry said as he pointed at the city in front of them.
In front of the three of them was a somewhat shabby-looking city,
the density of the mysterious energy in this city was much higher than outside.
In the center of the city was a huge black building that towered into the clouds.
However, compared to the spectacular black tower, this city seemed even shabbier.
The outer edges of the city were just small, unremarkable yellow earth walls.
It looks broken and desolate,
this kind of building is already on the verge of obsolescence on Earth.
There were many marks of the wind and the sun on the mud wall,
as if it would collapse with a single push.
But Jerry was sure, even if it was a full blow from the King of the Gods!
It might not even leave a mark on this yellow wall.
Without much thought, Jerry led the two of them to the old gate in front of them.
When they first arrived in this world, Jerry had already tested it out,
he could activate the digital imprint on his arm at any time and directly return to Sky City.
Therefore, there was no need to be overly cautious.
There was only an old man guarding the city gate,
but Jerry did not dare to let his guard down, because he couldn’t sense any signs of cultivation from this old man.
Then there were only two possibilities. First, this old man was indeed an ordinary person.
But only someone above the King of the Gods level could enter this place,
then there was only one other possibility,
this old man’s strength far surpassed Jerry’s and might have even reached the saint level.
Seeing Jerry and the other two enter, the old man did not even raise his head, and said weakly, “You’re new?”
It was not strange that he knew this,
the first level King of the Gods in this city were either subordinates of the dynasty lords,
or they were newcomers who had just advanced to the dynasty.
Looking at the unfamiliar faces of those people, they could naturally come to such a conclusion at a glance.
“Yes, may I ask if this is a training ground, old sir? May I ask what a training ground is?” Athena stepped forward and asked.
As expected of the head butler who handled all matters within and outside the Sky Dynasty. He did not have the slightest bit of criticism when dealing with people.
The old man’s tone became much gentler when he did not hit the smiling person,
“Do you see the tower inside? That is the training ground. When you arrive there, someone will naturally tell you the specific things.”
Following in the direction the old man was pointing to
“By the way, I’m kind enough to remind you that apart from the lord of the dynasty, the rest of the followers will need to spend one crystal a day to stay in this city.”
“Crystal? ?” Athena was confused again. This was the first time she had heard this kind of address,
seeing their confused look, the old man took out a crystal from his bosom.
They instantly felt an extremely dense mysterious energy from it,
it was the mysterious energy that was unique to this world. Jerry could feel that as long as he could absorb all the energy in that crystal,
he would be able to advance directly to a tier 2 King of the Gods.
“I believe all of you have already felt the mysterious energy that exists in this world! That is unique to this world – it’s a spiritual essence.”
“You can also understand it as a kind of spiritual essence, as this one is targeted at the King of the Gods.”
“And this spiritual crystal is formed from the purest spiritual essence!” The old man put away the spiritual crystal after he finished speaking.
It seemed that this spiritual crystal was quite important even to the old man.
The few of them looked at each other and immediately understood. After advancing to the godly monarch, the spiritual essence in the Empire era was no longer of any use to the godly monarch.
The King of the Gods could only cultivate by collecting the power of faith,
however, the more the cultivated, the more power of faith he needed,
moreover, the effect of the spiritual essence mentioned by the old man was obviously better than the power of faith.
As expected of a city that only the lords of the dynastyies could enter,
this also explained why the followers who wanted to stay in the city had to pay a spiritual crystal.
This was equivalent to paying the rent.
“Then, old man, how do I get the crystals?” Athena asked with a smile.
“There are them in the trial field, of course, if you can get them.” The old man’s last sentence was a little inexplicable.
Athena wanted to ask more questions, but the old man had already closed his eyes and started meditating.
It indicated that he would not answer anything else.
Jerry did not hesitate at the door. He brought Athena and Alice into the city.
As soon as they entered the city, they were greeted by a group of soldiers,
the cultivation level that came from these soldiers actually made Jerry and the others feel a sense of oppression,
these soldiers’ realms were all above tier one Kings of the Gods
the group of soldiers seemed to be patrolling the city. They did not pay attention to Jerry and the others and walked to the other side.
“Your Majesty! ! !” Athena seemed to have noticed something as she pointed at one of the soldiers.
Jerry did not speak, nodding his head to show that he had noticed.
Among the group of soldiers that just passed in front of them,
one of them had a faint number mark on the back of his hand, but it seemed to have been removed.
However, Jerry and the others could still see it at a glance.
This meant that the soldier was also a lord of the dynasty like Jerry, and was also a lander who had mastered a fragment of the Empire Era.
But now, he had become a patrolling soldier in this city.
“It seems that there are more secrets in this so-called trial ground than we thought.” Jerry looked at the huge black tower in the middle that towered into the clouds.
Without any hesitation, Jerry headed straight for the huge black tower,
Athena and Alice followed closely behind.
Not long after, Jerry and the others arrived at the center of the city, in front of this mysterious black building.
There were a few soldiers guarding.
Beside it was a stone table. An old man with snow-white beard and hair sat on the stone pier and closed his eyes to rest.
“Grandpa, is this the trial field?”
Sensing other people’s arrival, the old man opened his eyes.
He glanced at the number mark on Jerry’s arm and muttered to himself, “Is this a new arrival? Fragment number nine?”
“Yes, this is the trial field. See that door?” The old man pointed at the door guarded by soldiers.
Without waiting for Athena to ask, the old man continued, “Behind that door are countless labyrinths. Inside the labyrinth are countless treasures, but at the same time, there are endless dangers.”
“This endless tower has a total of 81 floors. The final test is to reach the 81st floor and pass through the 81st Labyrinth.”
“Each floor of the labyrinth has an entrance that leads to the next floor.”
“The higher the level, the greater the reward, and the greater the danger. Many people died in the maze.”
“And every time you enter the Maze, you have to pay crystals. As the levels increase, the number of crystals you have to pay will also increase.”
