Chapter 137: Poison Master (1)

James had withstood the poison for almost three hours straight. According to Noah, he would be exposed to the poison many times over the next days, and ev if he didn't know what the outcome would be, he was sure that it would befit him.

However, James wanted to reach the 0th floor, he was filled with great hope and excitemt.

After all, there were abilities he could get from Chronos, and the fact that Chronos had a special window where he could watch him at all times, or that the old man had a definite reason for coming to James' side, made it all the better.

Of course, he couldn't go down from the th floor, that was the deal after all, the only reason James thought that way was because Chronos was time itself, which meant that Chronos could somehow create a lower time zone and keep James training going.

"Ready, James?"

James suddly heard this question along with a hissing sound coming from his right side and th he asked, albeit fearfully:

"Ready for what?"

James knew very clearly what the answer would be wh he asked this question and he was waiting for the answer in a very unpleasant way.

"I'm going to increase the level of the poison, this level can knock a Wyvern down and knock it unconscious in seconds, be prepared," Noah replied.

At Noah's question, James began to breathe deeply and shook his head, "Don't hold back, Mr Snake!" he said sarcastically.

Noah smiled involuntarily at these words, and th the liquid in the cauldron began to change.

The whole of Olympus was in a state of stress, of course, the fact that Nyx was influcing the test due to someone like Ra exercising his authority had saved James' life, but that still didn't mean that James couldn't be paralysed.

There were only a few poison masters in this tower, to be exact only of them existed and Cain the High Arch-Elf was one of them. Of course, millions of gods used poison, but of them were like the first three.

In first place was Cain the High Arch-Elf, and in second place was Noah the Devourer. The man in the third place was now forgott, the only thing remembered about him was that he had a high degree of closess with Thanatos and Loki and only two of them knew where he was.

All of which meant that the poisons Noah was going to administer to James were going to be far too dangerous, and ev Nyx's palms were sweating with stress as these words were spok or these concerns made themselves known.

After all, ev Nyx could not affect this tower created by her father in such a way, yes, maybe in places where death was not necessary, just like in Noah's test, but there would be places where ev Nyx would have no effect.

For example, areas such as the [Conscice of the Clouds] on the 40th floor or the [Slaughter Pit] on the 90th floor were places that Nyx could not affect. М√ᏞƎƜҎႸƦ.ϲӨМ

The Conscice of the Clouds would test the hearts of users and players and show their true colours to everyone on that floor. Blue clouds existed for the good-hearted and red clouds existed for the bad-hearted. If a bad-hearted person stepped on the blue clouds, they would either fall from the clouds or be teleported to the red clouds, it all depded on luck.

So it was a test of reality for them to be se from the point of their so called comrades. Sёarch* The nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The Slaughter Pit, on the other hand, was a place where the gods constantly fought it was se as the floor where the game of the gods, or more accurately, the war of the gods began. The 80th floor became a completely lawless place after the gods made a pact on the th floor, and the floor was completely changed after an offer was made to the consciousness of the tower.

The test of the floor was to be victorious in the battle in the gigantic ara or to collect items to pass the floor, just like any other floor.

"Th start James, this poison is three times stronger than the other one, be careful not to faint and if you can, try to use your aura despite all the poison in your body, you will surely improve." Noah suddly said, helping James.

"Understood!" said James, and with that he tried to use his aura again, along with the immse pain from his burning skin.

However, no matter how hard he tried, nothing changed. It was as if his aura was being blocked by the poison. James could realise that ev his magic rings were filled with poison, and he could ev feel his magic in a tiny way.

So it was normal that he could not recognise his aura wh the poison was coursing through the veins his aura was based on.

Nevertheless, James kept trying, constantly trying to feel the aura in his body and trying to push his luck.

Each time he tried he seemed to feel a differt kind of poison tering his body, or rather his body was burning differtly and his pores were hurting in differt ways, it was a strange and painful ssation indeed.

He began to sweat unbelievably, occasionally his skin would break off and heal because of the automatic healing, and his skin would vanish into dust in the poison.

The sight was incredibly disgusting, but the onlookers still chose not to look away.

Noah was incredibly shocked, wondering how James was holding up so well.

"You're holding up much better than I thought young man, did you have something to do with the poison?" Noah suddly asked.

James thought he couldn't speak as he struggled to hold on and continued to breathe deeply, but evtually, he managed to op his mouth and say, "I have an ability that protects me from 0 low-level poisons."

Noah's surprise was evidt in his expression, ev if he was a snake. He seemed to have a lot to say, and what he wanted to teach seemed to be ev more than what he had to say.
