In the far east stands a pure white tower.
This tower reaches the sky and the earth. No one has ever reached the top, and no one knows how many floors it has. Countless people can only look up from the bottom of the tower.
It is said that those who climb to the top of the tower can achieve immortality and immortality in one fell swoop.
And Lu Mingfei is in this tower right now.
That's right, this tower stands at the destination that Lu Mingze pointed out to him, Fulong City.
It should be said that the entire Fulong City was built radiating from the center of this tower.
This pagoda with mysterious power gave the humans in this city the capital to fight against other races.
One is that this tower has almost the same power as the city of Jormungandr, and people here will not age or even die due to the passage of time.
The second is the legend of the tower itself. It is generally said that one can reach immortality by climbing to the top. The real situation is that anyone can climb the tower, but few people can reach the top.
Because there are corresponding tower guardians on each floor, the higher you go up, the more powerful the tower guardians are, and the last few floors are almost like immortals.
Therefore, those who can reach the top of the tower must have achieved immortality.
Lu Mingze asked Lu Mingfei to come here probably because only here could Lu Mingfei improve his strength without worrying about the passage of time.
Whether it is Lu Mingfei or Chu Zihang's strength, they are not worth mentioning outside this world. Therefore, they must first improve their strength, at least to the point where they can compete with the Dragon King to be safe, and to reach the level of Lu The goal Narusawa wanted was to reach a higher level, and even climbing to the top of the tower was not enough.
Below the White Tower.
Angers found a wine shop and sat down, and asked the waiter to serve him two jugs of good wine.
Why two pots?
"How many years have passed?"
someone asked from the other side.
This voice was a somewhat lazy male voice.
Angers raised his head, took a look, and smiled softly: "It's only a thousand years."
"It's just...every time I hear this word, I always feel something is wrong...but after thinking about it, it seems that we are here, and it seems to take it for granted." The male voice responded, "Human beings are not supposed to have such a long lifespan. This The world is really twisted."
"Because of this, we need someone who can end it." Angers replied calmly.
"But just climbing to the top of the tower is not enough." The boy said with some regret, and then asked, "So... a thousand years have passed. How many floors do you think they can reach in the end?"
"At least you can see the white guy, right?" Angers answered without thinking.
"Haha..." The male voice smiled contemptuously, "You guessed wrong this time. I bet they can reach the top."
"You are still as confident as ever." Ange smiled.
"..."
The other party didn't answer again, or it could be said that he had disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared here before.
Even the wine in the wine glass that should have been consumed has strangely returned to its original state.
But Angers is no longer surprised by this.
It's just that to outsiders, he looks strange.
I always order two drinks here alone and talk to myself.
Those who didn't know better thought he was paying homage to someone, but in fact someone did come.
············
Inside the tower.
Lu Mingfei and Chu Zihang just stood silent and stared, as if neither of them wanted to speak first.
In the end, Lu Mingfei couldn't stand the sight of the paralyzed face in front of him, and said helplessly: "Should I go first?"
As he spoke, he raised his head and glanced at the floor above. The long spiral staircase has no end as far as the eye can see.
He has forgotten how long it has been since he and his senior brother entered this tower. In short, it feels like countless centuries have passed.
Most of the time, they walked on long steps.
You won’t starve to death without eating here, spiritual power and
The elemental energy is so abundant that they don't even need to actively practice, these majestic energies will help them temper their bodies independently.
Compared to before he came here, he felt that he was countless times stronger. He could crush his old self to death with one finger.
"You first." Chu Zihang said calmly.
"Okay, okay, then I'll go first."
Lu Mingfei nodded helplessly.
Every time he went up first and got beaten.
Because according to the rules here, only one person can pass through the level at a time, otherwise both people will be thrown out.
He is more resistant to beatings, so he goes up first to investigate the situation every time.
After making some preparations, Lu Mingfei sighed and continued to climb up the stairs.
Soon, he came to a platform, which was the platform that separated the upper and lower floors. There was a closed space on the platform. You could enter by pushing the door...and get beaten.
Just after he pushed the door open, the door behind him immediately closed.
The entire sight became pitch black, because there was not even a single window in this enclosed space. Every floor was the same, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
Fine golden lines suddenly appeared on the wall, which seemed to be dragon inscriptions. Lu Mingfei couldn't quite understand it, but he guessed that it should be the alchemy matrix in the tower, perhaps used to protect the tower.
He turned around and pushed the closed door.
Sure enough, I still couldn't push it away.
Once you're in, it's not easy to get out unless someone kicks you out.
Yeah, now I'm probably going to get beaten up and thrown back.
"It's so hard for me..." Lu Mingfei complained as he helplessly walked deeper into the room.
Although it is inside a tower, the radius of this tower is actually terrifyingly large, so the area of the room here cannot be seen to the end, and only endless darkness can be seen.
Every time he walked into a room like this, he had to first find where the tower guard was.
And sometimes when you meet someone who doesn't have martial ethics, you'll beat him up while he's in the dark.
Well, this is how Lu Mingfei got stronger while getting beaten. Completely opposite to Sun Haoran who is looking for someone to beat him all over the world.
Soon, Lu Mingfei discovered the only light in this space.
From a dilapidated cabin.
It's normal. After all, the tower keepers live in the tower. It's really normal to build a house.
It’s not difficult to understand. After all, it would be simply unrealistic for the tower keepers here to climb up from scratch every day.
Even excluding the challenge, he and Senior Brother Chu spent countless years just climbing stairs.
"Oh? Are there guests?"
A young man walked out of the cabin, but this was not important. What was important was that this man was holding a basket of steamed buns in his hand. He walked to the table in front of the door and sat down. While eating, he walked towards the road that he had worked so hard to climb up. Mingfei said hello, his expression was very unpleasant.
Moreover, this young man is a little fat, and it seems that the food in this tower is pretty good, including food and accommodation.
"Boy, do you want some buns?" The man glanced at Lu Mingfei teasingly, "After eating the buns, I suggest you get out of here. I'm in a good mood today so I won't beat you up."
"..." Lu Mingfei's mouth twitched.
Brother, you are really good at judging people. How did you know that I came here to be beaten?
Although he wanted to say this, Lu Mingfei had more things to care about now.
"Where did this bun come from?"
He was drooling, looking at the tower guard in front of him eating the buns with relish, and he was very greedy.
Although he was in a better situation than Sun Haoran, and with his senior brother as his companion, Lu Mingfei would not go crazy, but he had not eaten for an unknown amount of time, and he had almost forgotten what it felt like to eat.
"I made it myself." The fat man chuckled, "You have to find something for yourself to do when you stay here, otherwise you will go crazy. From planting to rolling out the dough and making the buns, I completed all the steps myself. Yes, although there are only vegetarian buns and no seasoning, it is better than nothing. Why?
Well, do you want to eat? "
"Eat! Of course!"
Lu Mingfei stopped being polite and grabbed the steamed buns in the steamer and wolfed them down.
The fat man couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Lu Mingfei's unprepared behavior, and a little curious arose: "Aren't you afraid that there is poison in it?"
"Didn't you eat it too?" Lu Mingfei was slightly startled, as if he was a little after-thought.
"If I was poisoned, I must have the antidote." The fat man said matter-of-factly.
"Is it really poisonous?" Lu Mingfei started to panic and glanced at the bun that he had already taken a bite of.
Not only this one, but several have already been eaten.
"Now you know you're afraid?"
"Don't die, don't die, don't die..."
I saw Lu Mingfei talking nonstop, and then... continuing to eat steamed buns.
"Holy shit... what kind of operation is this? You won't die even if you say you don't want to die? That's weird..." The fat man looked at Lu Mingfei speechlessly, "Don't worry, according to the rules in the tower, we can't kill The challenger’s.”
"Holy crap! Are you kidding me?"
"Hey, it's so boring to stay here. Finally, someone came here." The fat man scratched his head and explained, "Okay, although I really want to chat with you for a while, but the rules are the rules, I have to send you off quickly. Go down—"
Peng——
Before the fat man could finish the word "go" in his words, the whole thing flew out and smashed into the wooden house.
"Ouch! You don't have martial ethics!" Fatty's cry of pain came from the ruins, "I haven't even started shouting yet!"
"Start? Everyone, come and see, there is an honest man here, come and bully him together!" Lu Mingfei teased, clenching his fists, and his knuckles made a cracking sound.
"Don't blame me, brother. Didn't I learn everything from you tower guards? If I want to blame you, just blame the brothers below for their good teaching, right?"
It's not that he wanted to do it, but that he just couldn't hold it back. This fat guy's mouth was too weak. Is it easy for him to get beaten every time?
Even if you get beaten, now you have to be tricked! Uncle can bear it, but aunt can't bear it anymore!
With that said, Lu Mingfei disappeared instantly.
The next moment, Lu Mingfei's figure had already approached the fat man in front of him, raising his fist and preparing to hit him mercilessly, as if he was preparing to kill him while he was sick.
"Hey, hey, hey! Wait, wait, wait! Fatty struggles to get up from the ground. When I'm ready, then..."
Before the fat man finished speaking, Lu Mingfei punched him again, so fast that no one had time to react.
Hit him in the belly mercilessly.
Suddenly, the fat man felt like his stomach was churning, and he seemed to have the urge to vomit out whatever he had just eaten. This... this kid doesn't seem to be as easy to bully as he seems?
Bang bang——
Card--
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
A series of muffled sounds and screams like slaughtering pigs were heard, and there were even one or two sounds of broken bones.
"Huh~ Did I become so strong without realizing it? Then again...it turns out that beating someone is so much more satisfying than being beaten?"
After beating the fat man in front of him until he couldn't get up anymore, Lu Mingfei wiped his sweat and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the sneak attack was somewhat unsuccessful, he finally won for the first time in a long time.
However, he felt that there was nothing wrong with this. He had suffered so many beatings along the way, so there was nothing wrong with returning it to the tower guardian here.
············
On the other side, in Fulong City outside the tower, a mixed-race young man panted and ran to a courtyard in the royal city.
"It's not good! It's not good!"
"It's so noisy..."
Listening to the nervous shouts, lazy voices came from the other courtyard.
The man with long blond hair walked out of the room, shirtless and wearing a robe, yawning: "What's wrong? There's no reasonable reason to wake me up."
I'll put the blame on you for taking a nap. "
If Sun Haoran and others were here, they would definitely be surprised by this person's appearance.
Because this guy is none other than the "Caesar" who exists in this world.
"There's... someone climbing the tower!" The man took a breath, still panting.
"Nonsense, aren't there people who want to go up and take a look at the broken tower every day? What's wrong?" Caesar combed his long blond hair, which was a little messy when he got up, and complained, "You're in such a hurry just to tell me this. ?」
"No...it's that person...two floors away is the floor you'll be guarding. The city lord asked me to inform you."
[In view of the general environment,
"Oh? It's interesting."
Caesar seemed to finally be in the mood, and his expression became excited, "You should have said something like this earlier!"
call--
Suddenly, the wind howled.
A dazzling light suddenly rose under his feet, and the elemental flow began to stir.
The next moment, the light flashed away, and Caesar's figure disappeared with the light.
This is the ultimate in alchemy that has been lost in modern times, a power that can distort space, and a teleportation matrix.
In just a blink of an eye, Caesar had arrived at the floor he was guarding.
There are many keepers on this tower.
But generally only the floors below have people living outside. After all, the floor is too high and it takes a long time to go up and down.
But he is different.
He has money.
Only as the sole heir of one of the richest families in Fulong City could he have the money to use the teleportation matrix.
Although such an alchemy matrix is convenient, it consumes a lot of resources every time it is used. Even he cannot use it every day.
Fortunately, the floor is high enough that few people can reach it, so they only need to come up occasionally.
"I hope you won't disappoint me, challenger."
Caesar chuckled and looked in the direction of the room door.
Soon the door will be pushed open.
If he can't make it worth his money, he will go crazy.
