When there was only one minute left for Leo to complete the challenge of the second floor, the speed of the monster horde increased.They were less than five kilometers away from him and judging from their speed, it would take 30 seconds to reach him.
In his current condition where there was barely any energy left in his body, Leo could die the moment he got hit by the first monster in the monster horde.
Therefore, the only way for him to clear the second floor was to drink the diluted recovery potion and run away.
'Gulp'
'Swoosh'
Without wasting any time, Leo drank the diluted recovery potion which instantly recovered his energy.
'Let's run.'
Even though the monster horde's speed increased by a lot, they were still much slower compared to Leo's full speed.
In less than 10 seconds, he had already run 10 kilometers away from the monster horde and there was only 15 seconds left.
'Phew…to clear this floor, I already used two potions.'
Since there was quite a huge distance between him and the monster horde, Leo heaved a sigh of relief and was confident that he had already cleared the second floor.
According to him, unless the monster horde teleported to where he was, it was impossible to reach him in less than 15 seconds just by running.
'Thanks to the starlight steps, I can run at an incredible speed for a short duration.'
Leo silently muttered to himself as he looked at the distant monster horde.

[Congratulations to the challenger for successfully clearing the second floor]
[Do you want to skip the reward to increase the reward for clearing the next floor or do you want the reward now?]
There was no suspense as Leo cleared the second floor of the God Tower and it was only possible because of the two potions he consumed to recover his stamina.
"I want the reward now."
'Swoosh'
In the next second, Leo disappeared and appeared in his resting room after he chose the instant reward.
'Thankfully, I was less greedy after entering the God Tower; otherwise, it would have been impossible for me to clear the second floor.'
If Leo was to skip the first floor's reward and entered the second floor, without a doubt, he would have been dead.
Even though his reward would be much greater when he cleared the second floor in the future, he would have to go through the trouble of finding a God Tower Ticket.
Hence, he was thankful for being not greedy and chose the reward for the first floor and he wanted to continue doing the same until his other talents got unlocked.
….
In the resting room,
[The reward for clearing the second floor has been sent to the challenger]
'Swoosh'
After waiting for a few moments, Leo heard Heaven's Voice followed by the sudden appearance of two white-coloured chests in front of him.
'Huh? There are two of them? Will the number of treasure chests be related to the floor?'
Looking at the two treasure chests in front of him, Leo questioned himself because the treasure chests looked just like the one he received for clearing the first floor.
However, instead of one, he received two for clearing the second floor.
'Anyway, let's see what's inside them.'
Even though Leo had one hour before he could enter the third floor of the God Tower, he didn't waste time when it came to the reward.
'Click'
Inside the first white treasure chest, Leo saw the familiar items.
'What? These are the same potions from the first floor.'
That's right!
Inside the first treasure chest, Leo saw the three potions namely, the Diluted Rage Potion, Diluted Recovery Potion and Diluted Awakening Potion.
'Interesting'
Leo thought of something and felt it was quite interesting. Nevertheless, he didn't think much before opening the second treasure chest.
'System, collect them and give me information about these items.'
In the second treasure chest, there were no potions but three items lying side by side. Leo took them out as he asked the system to do what it usually does.
'Ding,
The master has received three items from the second treasure chest.
'Ding,
1) Item Name: Ghost Card (one-time use).
Use: Upon usage, the user can disappear from the sight of all beings below the God Realm for 10 minutes.
Note: It is an exclusive item for the God Tower and can't be used outside the tower.
'Ding,
2) Item Name: Weapon Card (one-time use).
Use: Upon usage, the user can unlock one of his selected weapons for a duration of 10 minutes. It is better to use this card before the challenger unlocks the ability to wield a weapon inside the God Tower.
Note: It is an exclusive item for the God Tower and can't be used outside the tower.
'Ding,
3) Item Name: Talent Card (one-time use). S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NƟvelFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Use: Upon usage, the user can unlock one of his selected talents for a duration of 10 minutes.
Note: It is an exclusive item for the God Tower and can't be used outside the tower.
Soon, a series of system notifications appeared in front of Leo, explaining the information of the items he just received from the treasure chest.
'The rewards for clearing the second floor are much better than I thought.'
Even though Leo knew that the rewards would be better than the first floor rewards, it was completely out of his expectations to receive such items.
'With these items, my chances of clearing the third floor has increased by a lot.'
Leo clenched his fists as he looked at the three cards he received from the second treasure chest.
'However, I have to be careful while using them. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I should not use the [Ghost Card] and the [Talent Card].'
Just because he had them, Leo didn't want to use them right away as he knew those two items would be useful even in the higher floors of the God Tower.
….
[Welcome to the third floor, challenger]
Leo's resting period got over in a flash as he was telepored to the third floor of the God Tower.
