Chapter 295 Fifth Floor's Beast



Orion stood victorious, having defeated the powerful Ice Wolves on the fourth floor. As he waited for the teleportation to the fifth floor, his mind raced with anticipation and curiosity. He wondered what challenges awaited him in the next level of the tower.

As he stood there, he took the opportunity to catch his breath and reflect on his past battles. He had come a long way since entering the tower, and he was proud of his progress. But he knew that the challenges ahead would only get tougher.

Orion couldn't shake the feeling that there was something deeper going on in the tower, something that went beyond just a simple test of strength. He wondered if the challenges on the fifth floor would hold the answers he sought.

"System, why can't you tell me what's in the fifth floor?" Orion asked the system, hoping to gain some insight into what was to come.

The system responded in its usual monotone voice, [Host, you will know it later in the fifth floor, and it will be very beneficial for you.]

Orion frowned in frustration. The system was always so cryptic with its answers, never giving him a straight answer. "You are really mysterious, system," he muttered under his breath.

As he pondered the system's response, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. What if the challenges in the fifth floor were too much for him to handle? What if he failed? The thought made him shiver, but he quickly pushed it aside. He had come too far to give up now.

The teleportation began, and Orion felt the familiar sensation of his body being transported through space. When he arrived on the fifth floor, he took a deep breath and readied himself for whatever was to come. He couldn't wait to see what lay ahead and whether or not he would finally uncover the mystery behind the tower's purpose.

But as soon as he materialized on the fifth floor, he was hit by a wave of intense heat that made him stumble backwards. "What the hell, this place is so hot," he exclaimed, feeling the sweat already beginning to bead on his forehead.

The heat was unlike anything he had ever experienced before. It was oppressive, suffocating, and seemed to seep into every fiber of his being. Orion could feel his skin prickling with discomfort and his clothes sticking to his body.

"Well, this is just great," Orion muttered sarcastically. "I've defeated ice wolves and now I'm going to be roasted alive. Just what I always wanted."

Despite his mocking tone, he knew he had to stay focused and keep moving forward. Whatever lay ahead, he would face it head-on and with all the skills he had acquired so far. He took a deep breath and began to move forward, his eyes scanning the horizon for any sign of what was to come.

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed through the air, causing Orion to jump in surprise. "What is that?" he exclaimed, his hand automatically reaching for his sword hilt.

As he looked around, he saw a massive shadow descending from the sky. Within seconds, a huge eagle appeared in front of him, its wingspan stretching almost as wide as the eye could see. Its beady eyes glinted in the sunlight, and its talons gleamed menacingly.

Orion was momentarily stunned by the eagle's sheer size and power. He had fought many opponents before, but this was on another level. He knew that he would have to tread carefully if he wanted to come out of this alive.

"Fuck, how can this be?" Orion cursed under his breath, his eyes locked on the beast in front of him. "The previous floor was only three ice wolves, but now it's a fucking menace. Even though it's only one beast, its power easily beat even ten of those Ice Wolves."

The realization of the eagle's strength hit Orion hard. He had underestimated the challenges that lay ahead and were now paying the price for it. He knew that he had to come up with a plan quickly if he wanted to survive.

Orion knew that he had to gather more information about the beast, so he directly inspected it. As he focused his gaze on the eagle, the system showed the creature's status in his eyes.
