Chapter 753: The Last Level!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Outside the Tower of Trials, inside a tavern.
Tang Muxing and the rest had all finished challenging the Tower of Trials and were all gathered here and sharing their experience.
“Actually, speaking of which, the first 18 levels are still okay, but the ones after that are much harder.” Tang Muxin pouted and said, “It’s such a pity, I couldn’t get further than level 18 no matter what I tried, sigh.” She looked at Li Nianwei and asked, “Sister Nianwei, how about you? How many levels did you pass?”
“I also just passed through level 18 too.” Li Nianwei gently said, “But there’s no need to be discouraged, we are already very formidable to be able to pass through level 18. Even now, there aren’t many people who can pass level 18.”
“Hehe, that’s indeed true. It looks like I am not just a flower vase, after all.” Hearing this, Tang Muxin obviously felt much better. She smiled and nodded, then looked at the others and asked, “What about you, flirting guy?”
“I only barely made it past level 19.” Lucifer shrugged and said, “Towards the back, my ability’s effect wasn’t very good. I still have to train on it.”
“Then, Brother Levis, how about you?” Tang Muxin looked at Levis and asked, “How many levels?”
“20.” Levis carefully thought back to the situation in the Tower of Trials and said, “Actually, it doesn’t matter how many levels I passed. What’s more important is what I can learn through the process.”
Speaking of which, the main purpose of the Tower of Trials wasn’t for people to just challenge the levels and obtain rewards.
The Galaxy Aristocrats opened up this place mainly to get people to go in and train their combat ability. After all, they wouldn’t die in the virtual world and also wouldn’t feel pain. Once they died, they could revive and continue fighting, all at a cost of just five dollars.
And this kind of venue that was suitable for training wasn’t something that could easily be found anywhere. Therefore, Levis’ words had stated the Tower of Trials’ true purpose.
“Yup, from now on, if we don’t have anything to do, let’s just come here and train.” Tang Muxin said, “In this way, it will be much easier to brush up our skills in the real world after we have practiced here.”
Then, she asked Ling Xiaoyi, “Sister Xiaoyi, what about you guys?”
“We are no good.” Ling Xiaoyi helplessly said, “We aren’t combat-type people in the first place. When our attributes are only at 100 stats, we are no different from ordinary humans. I only made it past level three.”
“Same for me.” Li Yang was a little disappointed as well. “As expected, the strength of us lackeys is indeed not enough...”
“That’s true.” Tang Muxin supported her chin with her hand and gloomily said, “What we lack now is secret manuals, right? However, once Dali comes out, he will definitely have good stuff to give us, hehe.”
“Xinxin.” Li Nianwei smiled and teased her. “Then, how many levels do you think the Young Master has passed now?”
“Is there a need to ask?” Tang Muxin pointed at the big screen and said, “The one on the highest level is definitely that lazy bug Dali, I am sure of it!”
Just as Tang Muxin spoke up to this point, another wave of alarmingly loud cheering sounded from outside—
“Mysterious man, press on! You must definitely pass level 30!”
“That’s right, this is the last one left. Since you have already come so far, don’t give up now!”
“Press on! This is the last one now, you must definitely make it!”
Tang Muxin frowned her cute little nose, giggled, and said, “That Dali is a rascal, he definitely won’t be trying too hard. It totally depends on his mood to see if he wants to pass through level 30 or not, hehe!”
...
Inside the Tower of Trials.
Finally coming to level 30, honestly speaking, Hong Dali was quite surprised that he could make it here too—he originally intended to just casually walk around and play, he really didn’t intend to come so far...
But when a person’s strength was very high, it would be hard for him to keep a low-profile. Look at him, casually playing all the way up here...
The Boss of level 30 was as Hong Dali had expected, it was a huge dragon covered in blue-colored scales!
This was really a huge dragon, its body was more than a hundred meters long and as high as 30 plus meters. When it spread its huge wings, it was as if the sky was covered by a large patch of dark clouds.
The dragon’s head was at least seven to eight meters long, looking like a large passenger coach—this description was really quite close to what it looked like. At least in terms of size, it was about the same...
“Young man, I am very surprised that you can come all the way here.” The Blue Dragon stared at Hong Dali with its huge eyes, cocked its head, suddenly smiled and said, “Speaking of which, I don’t know why, but my mood became much better upon seeing you.”
“Ah, all those who know me said this too.” Hong Dali beamed with delight and asked, “Brother Blue Dragon, what requirement is there to pass your level?”
“You are a very kind-hearted young man.” The Blue Dragon’s voice was very gentle, not having any killing aura of someone who was about to start a battle. In fact, he was indeed unable to amass any killing intention upon looking at Hong Dali. “The fact that you’re here already proves this. Therefore, I won’t battle with you. However, since I am in charge of guarding this level, I have to at least do something. Let’s do it this way. Young man, what are you good at?”
Hong Dali felt that this Brother Blue Dragon’s question was quite silly.
Was there a need to ask?
“I am good at squandering.” Hong Dali sniffled and thus said.
“Hm...” Brother Blue Dragon’s face instantly changed—it became so blue that it almost turned purple...
“Alright, let’s change the question.” Blue Dragon thought for a while, then asked, “Is there anything that you want to know about this Tower of Trials? I might be able to answer your queries.”
Speaking of which, this Tower of Trials did indeed contain a lot of secrets.
After all, if such a huge tower was only for training, it would seem too simple to believe. Here, the animals were in fact only a small part of the tower. There were still a lot of secrets. Being the Boss of level 30, Brother Blue Dragon naturally knew all of them. Of course, he wouldn’t tell these secrets to normal people!
Then, Brother Blue Dragon collapsed...
Hong Dali looked left and right, then looked at Brother Blue Dragon and asked, “Then, can tell me how to how I can waste money in this game? I want to squander!”
“Hm...” Blue Dragon’s face completely turned purple. “Alright, this question is very difficult for me to answer too. But you can do it this way, just start all over again. Other than not having any rewards, there isn’t any different from the first time.”
“If I do that, one time will only be... Wait, let me calculate.” Hong Dali starting counting on his fingers. “One level is five dollars, 10 levels are 50 dollars, 30 levels... That’s only 150 dollars!”
“Alright, young man.” Brother Blue Dragon obviously felt that his brain cells today weren’t enough to use. Speaking of which, being a dragon, one of the most awesome and high-ranking races in the Universe, Brother Blue Dragon had always believed himself to be very intelligent. But facing Hong Dali, why did he keep feeling that his brain was slightly not enough? He thought for a while, then asked, “Do you only want to know how to squander? Don’t you want to know how to earn money? Or get better equipment?” Speaking of which, wasn’t the aim of those people who came here to obtain treasures or money or such? How did the brain circuits in this young man actually grow?
“Why would I want to earn money?” Hong Dali felt strange and said, “I don’t lack money, and I don’t seem to lack equipment either!”
Honestly speaking, it was true that Hong Dali never seemed to lack money to spend. Therefore, Brother Blue Dragon’s question seemed quite silly...
“Then what are you here for!?” Brother Blue Dragon frantically said, “This is the Tower of Trials! The Tower of Trials! If you don’t want to train, don’t want money, and don’t want equipment, why did you come here? And even came to level 30! I am the leader of the Bosses! The leader of the Bosses! Do you actually understand what the leader of the Bosses means!?”
“Oh, the reason for coming here?” Hong Dali thought for a while and said, “Brother Tianzong said that he wanted the Meridian Seven Star Sword on level 15, so I came. As for after that.” Hong Dali looked around the surroundings, then looked at Blue Dragon and said, “I was purely curious to see if I could see a dragon from the legends, and I really did!”
“Just... Just because you were curious...” Brother Blue Dragon was really astonished. “Because of this, you passed 29 levels in a single shot, and lastly ended up here?”
“That’s right.” Hong Dali nodded and said, “If not, what would I be here for? Oh right, there’s also the ‘Secrets of Dark Energy’ on level 25 that I wanted. That’s for Brother Levis to use and practice.”
Blue Dragon suddenly realized that this miraculous young man in front of him was really strange.
He came here seemingly not for himself, but to obtain stuff for other people. Yet, as a result of that, he directly ended up all the way in level 30?
“Then isn’t there anything you want for yourself?” Brother Blue Dragon was even more curious now. Didn’t this strange young man had any desires of his own? Therefore, he slowly lured him and said, “For example, money, power, strength, status, women and so on? You really don’t want any of these?”
“Something I want?” This time, Hong Dali really thought over it carefully. Then, he said, “Speaking of which, there really is something that I kind of want.”
He carefully thought for a while, then looked at Brother Blue Dragon hopefully and asked, “Brother Blue Dragon, do you have teleportation rings or something? I am a bit homesick, I want to go back and take a look. Yup, just the ones in the virtual world will do, this one is more convenient. Oh right.” Saying so, he added, “It would be best if it is mass teleportation, I have quite a lot of good friends!”
Teleportation ring, this was the most important thing now! As long as he could teleport back to Earth, he could see his parents every day. At worst, he could report his safety to them, right?
But this placed Brother Blue Dragon in a bit of a tough spot.
This teleportation ring wasn’t the reward for his level. But since he had already said the words, it wouldn’t look good if he didn’t give it to Hong Dali...
Therefore, a human and a dragon just stood there and stared at each other with their big and small eyes.
Hong Dali did indeed wish to have a teleportation ring. Blue Dragon was considering whether to give him or not—he was indeed capable of making such an item, but he would lose a bit of his ability as a result...
Therefore, they stared at each other for an entire 10 minutes before Blue Dragon helplessly said, “Alright, since you have already made the request, naturally, I shall satisfy you. However, this doesn’t seem very worth it. Hm, never mind, it’s not very important anyway...”
Saying so, he stretched out his dragon claw and softly cut through his other front paw. Instantly, a drop of blueish-purple blood dripped out from between the scales.
He then waved his hand and that tiny drop of blood slowly floated in front of Hong Dali. Then, the drop of blood gradually condensed into a beautiful blueish-purple ring and floated in front of Hong Dali.
