Tower Ascension - Chapter 75

Peter didn’t hesitate to choose the party mode. After all, he was waiting for almost three months for every to grow stronger. As soon as he clicked the party mode, a new panel appeared in front of him.

[Defeat Five Hundred Monsters]

[Your fate is in your hands]

The next moment, the entire island started falling down. Before even they could realize anything, the massive numbers of monsters started appearing around them. There were varieties of monsters like bears, wolves, tigers, elephants, deer, lizards, snakes, and many more.

At this moment, Peter turned his head at the others and shouted.

“Everyone, use everything you got! Don’t hold even a little!”

Saying so, he turned around and condensed the white armor around. The internal energy exploded into his veins and reached every corner of his body. His arms were bulging with internal energy while he held the swords in his hands.

“Dragon Twister!”

As soon as he reached the middle of those monsters, he swings his arms and condensed a powerful hurricane with the flow of wind. His swords were coated with sword energy which later flowed into the hurricane and slashed those monsters.

On another side,

Zhao Ming held his spear tightly and condensed his unique blue flames on the tip of his spear. He dashed forward after stomping his foot on the ground. His speed was so fast that monsters near him couldn’t even react.

Boom!

As soon as he reached the middle, he thrusts his spear towards his enemies and retreated. The blue flames strike a monster and explode. Fortunately, he had trained with Peter and he knows how to run away from these kinds of explosions.

He kept spinning his spear behind him which slowed down the flames as he dashed forward with great speed.

“Fire Dragon Claw!”

Suddenly, a sweet voice rang throughout the island. Above Alice, a giant claw of a dragon emerged. It was covered with flames. Alice also raised her hand as it followed her and then swings her hands towards the ground.

Boom!

The giant claw of the fire dragon smashed the monsters into a paste. The explosion consumed dozens of them at once. But, it didn’t stop there. She sucked a massive amount of air and released a huge stream of flames.

“Fire Dragon Roar!”

Boom!

The stream of flame took the lives of dozens of monsters that survived the previous explosion. It was not only fast but also very strong. As it took the lives of dozens, more monsters rushed towards her.

They weren’t afraid of her rather they wanted to finish her quickly. At this moment, an arrow rushed towards them.

“Breaking the Ground!”

The arrow was imbued with flames as it rushed from the bow that Peter was holding. He used the Sky Shooting Arrow Skill to help Alice from afar. But, another arrow rushed towards the same target. And, this arrow was imbued with the blue mana. The person who shot this arrow was none other than Alexa.

Boom!

Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!

Peter’s arrow struck the ground in the middle of those monsters and exploded. This giant explosion took dozens of lives. But, the arrow shot by Alexa suddenly duplicated into dozens and pierced the body of those monsters.

These arrows were not only fast but also sharp. At this moment, John swing his sword and killed the monster that was rushing towards him.

But, there was one problem. Except for that monster, there was not a single monster that came near him. He wasn’t sure whether to get happy about this or feel sad. He sighed and rushed towards the monsters.

If they don’t come to him, he must go to them. After all, he wanted to help them. Just as he dashed forward, he saw a group of monsters. A smile appeared on his face. He gripped his sword tightly and rushed towards it.

“Fire Dragon Fire Hurricane!”

Suddenly, a loud roar startled him. It was Peter rushing towards the group of monsters from the front. His two swords were fused with fire mana. Upon reaching near them, he swings his swords with great force and creates a fire hurricane.

Seeing this, John stopped and bites his lip. He also wanted to fight but Peter stole his chance. But, he couldn’t say anything. He turned his head and found another group of monsters. He hurriedly rushed towards it but the blue flame suddenly exploded in the middle.

Boom!

The explosion destroyed all of those monsters as a figure rushed towards him, escaping from the explosion. Zhao Ming reached out to John and caught his hand.

“What are you doing? Can’t you see the explosion?”

He felt frustrated when he saw John standing there without moving at all. But, suddenly he remembered John’s strength and felt a little bitter. After arriving at a safe distance, Zhao Ming patted his shoulder and said “Don’t worry! Just stay here and we will protect you. Don’t move from here, okay?”

But before John could say anything, he rushed towards another group of monsters. At this moment, John opened his mouth but not a word came out of it. He puts his hand down and sighed. He turned his head towards the right and saw Alexa shooting arrows one after another.

Then, he turned his head to the left and saw Alice covered with flames. She was condensing giant body parts of flames and smashing the monsters. Feeling sad, he sighed “It seems I don’t need to do anything.”

Although he said that, he really wanted to do something. He felt his blood boiling to do something interesting. In less than three minutes, the entire group of monsters was slaughtered and the island stopped from falling down.

This lets the group finally breathe. As for Peter, he directly opened his status panel.

‘Finally, I reached the twenty-fifth level. Although it doesn’t matter much with my current condition, it still feels good. It seems the EXP limit from now on will increase by two hundred after each level.’

Peter felt the power flowing through his veins. He realized it wasn’t exactly the raw power rather the confidence. This was something he learned after facing the Supreme. He found the main difference between supremes and other were their confidence.

Even if the Supreme and Supreme fight, the supreme is confident enough to stay alive even if he fights two supremes. Of course, if it is three then it would be difficult unless that supreme is good at escaping.

After reaching the peak of the floor, he felt confident. He knew this confidence is the same confidence that supreme has. It’s simply because there is only one person above Supreme and he can’t come out.

Just like them, Peter was feeling confident because he was the strongest under the third floor. Suddenly, he remembered the youth he met on the first floor.

He knew that boy was strong. And, according to the old man, there are many youths stronger than him. This made his confidence shrink. It didn’t shrink because he feared them rather he realized he shouldn’t let his confidence transform into arrogance.

Because that’s what happens to most of the supremes. After taking a deep breath, he and others waited for the next level. This time a new panel appeared.

[One of the participants, please step forward!]

When Peter saw that, he looked at others.

“It seems this is going to be a solo battle.” Peter spoke and everyone else nodded their heads. They knew this won’t be easy. Everyone looked at each other and Alice took a step forward.

“I am not strong as the brother but I am also not weak. I think it will be the best for me to go.” Hearing her words, others nodded. Alice wasn’t lying. Except for Peter, nobody can defeat her. But, Peter shouldn’t go first because they didn’t know what the second level truly is.

As she walked ahead, a blue light flashed in front of her and a monster appeared. It wasn’t the normal monster. It was a humanoid shape wolf. It had a male body and was nearly as tall as Peter.

Alice clenched her fist as she saw the level of the man-wolf. He was not only twenty-fifth-level monster but also had a leader rank. Seeing this, everyone knew this would be trouble. But, more importantly, the new panel made them frown even more.

[If the participant loses the battle, the island will fall ten times faster than before. Each time participant loses, the speed will increase by ten]
