Chapter 185 The difficult tower climbing challenge, looking for the corridor of stars
Browse the book of illusions again, the illusions in it have been reset.
Not only do you have to go through the plot of the Grand Maester again, but you also have to challenge it again from the first floor of the Star Tower.
Lin Xun quickly went from the first floor to the tenth floor.
As a result, after killing the guards on the tenth floor, I did not obtain the memory item again.
"It's a pity. If I can get rewards repeatedly, I can increase the knowledge limit here to 99999..."
Lin Xun sighed and continued to challenge.
Although the defensive strength of the 'Star Tower' is stronger than the previous one, the increase in the defensive strength of adjacent floors is not very obvious.
However, after every ten levels, the guard's strength will increase dramatically.
Before the twentieth floor, he could use the eyeball's special skill 'Infusion of Illusory Knowledge' to achieve a one-hit kill.
It is worth mentioning that the ‘Memory of the Starry Sky’ rewarded at level 20 can increase the upper limit of knowledge by 2,000 points!
When he used the memory props, the 'Almighty True Knowledge' did not cast a watchful eye on him, nor did he send the 'Beast of Disordered Knowledge' to correct his mistakes.
For the time being, it can be considered that the ‘memory of the starry sky’ can be used without any hindrance.
He killed the guards on the 20th floor and continued to challenge upwards.
However, the guard on the twenty-first floor gave him a little surprise.
After he started the challenge, the scholar guard used a prop similar to the 'Pre-stored Spell Ring' without saying a word, and raised a 'knowledge grating' to protect himself.
Fortunately, the epic-level 'Knowledge Radiance Staff' inherited from the Knowledge Guild Master has the effect of ignoring the enemy's spell resistance, and is extremely destructive to knowledge-based defense skills such as 'Knowledge Grating'.
He no longer uses 'illusory knowledge infusion', but uses a 'gun of knowledge' to smash the grating and kill the guards.
After a long time...
【……】
[The giant spear composed of characters instantly penetrated the guard's body and tore it into two pieces.]
[You defeated the ‘Guard on the 30th floor of the Star Tower’, but you did not gain experience points. 】
【You feel a little tired!】
[The star array under your feet slowly rises, taking you with it to the heights.]
[The bright stars flowing above your head are one step closer to you. You look up at the stars and observe countless stars, and you seem to have some insights. 】
[You have obtained the ‘Memory of the Starry Sky’ (item)]
Lin Xun felt a shiver in his heart when he saw the 'tired' warning displayed in the text.
The higher the skill quality, the greater the power, but at the same time the mental energy consumed will also increase accordingly.
After he frequently used the 'Infusion of Illusory Knowledge' and 'Spear of Knowledge', the president's body had consumed a lot of mental energy.
He finally understood why the two presidents stopped at the thirty-ninth floor due to their strong strength.
Even the frustrated Grand Maester who had just met said that it was not that it could not defeat the guards and therefore failed to climb the tower, but that it could not hold up.
It turns out that most of the reasons why the number of floors in the climbing tower stops here is that there are not enough blue bars...
"Unfortunately, the Valkyrie cannot be summoned within the illusion of knowledge."
In the previous illusion of the 'Dark Dragon Knight', Lin Xun tried to summon three lions when faced with an endless sea of monsters.
As a result, the underworld game told him that the illusion of knowledge can only be entered by a single person, and that summoned creatures cannot be brought along to guide the game together, and creatures cannot be summoned in the illusion.
Otherwise, Lin Xun could have the three-headed lion and Valkyrie take turns challenging the guards and achieve automatic tower climbing.
The thirty-level reward of ‘Memory of the Starry Sky’ is even better than before, and the upper limit of the amount of knowledge has been increased by 3,000 points.
After using it, Lin Xun's knowledge amount has reached a terrifying 600/11200
He continued to challenge upward.
After the upper limit of knowledge increased tremendously, the power of his knowledge skills increased greatly.
But the strength of the guards on the 31st floor also soared. The guards used the 'Knowledge Grating' to successfully resist his next attack of the 'Knowledge Spear', and counterattacked fiercely at him.
If Lin Xun's magic shield hadn't been an instant skill, he might have fallen into a ditch.
The second time I used the 'Knowledge Spear', I finally broke the grating and killed the crispy guard.
[You defeated the ‘Guard on the 31st floor of the Star Tower’...]
【……】
"According to this skill usage frequency, even if I save mana, I will probably be able to climb to more than 40 floors at most..."
Although the attack power of the president's body was powerful, it was limited by mental fatigue. Lin Xun decided to switch to the earth giant's body and try to challenge.
Facing the 'knowledge grating' guarded by the thirty-second floor, the earth giant carried the enemy's spell attack and hammered it several times with a giant stick with 'immortal flame' before breaking the grating and killing the crispy chicken.
"There is no spell penetration effect, so it is very difficult to break the grating..."
‘Flowing Fire Burning Eyes’ and ‘Lance of Knowledge’ are both epic-level skills, but compared with them, they lack the magic penetration effect and knowledge increase effect.
As a result, the one-on-one power of 'Eternal Flame' is far inferior to that of 'Spear of Knowledge'.
Lin Xun rubbed his chin and thought.
The physical strength consumed by the Earth Giant in fighting a single monster is negligible, but fighting with the enemy's spell attacks will deplete its health bar over time.
The Guild Leader lacks mana when facing enemies, while the Earth Giant has health problems when facing enemies.
"Oh, I'd better use the Earth Giant first, and then switch to the Master's body when I can't bear it any longer."
"It's just that the dancer is rubbish. If I had a powerful assassin body, facing these fragile scholar guards, I wouldn't be able to turn invisible and kill them one by one."
In order to allow the Earth Giant to climb higher, Lin Xun took off the president's ceremonial robe and equipped the Earth Giant with it.
The ceremonial robe can increase the resistance to knowledge-based skills. After equipping it, it will not be so painful to carry the spell.
In this way, he continued his journey to the tower.
…
[You defeated the ‘Guard on the 40th floor of the Star Tower’...]
[You have obtained the ‘Memory of the Starry Sky’ (item)]
[You are covered with bruises, and the heavy injuries make it difficult for you to walk...]
The earth giant carried the guards' spell attacks all the way, and after draining forty layers of health bars, there was not much left.
Lin Xun could only change back to Master Fa's body.
"It seems that I not only lack the body of a powerful assassin, but also the body of a wet nurse..."
Folk apostles rarely use nanny bodies. On the one hand, this is because nanny bodies are rare in the game. On the other hand, nanny's combat power is weak. The difficulty of the ordinary chapters is equivalent to the difficulty of the hell chapter.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Folk apostles who cannot persist will change their bodies and give up their nanny bodies...
But there are still some nanny apostles in the logistics team of the Apostolic Council.
The government has allocated some resources to make life less uncomfortable for nanny apostles, thereby maintaining the number of auxiliary personnel within the organization.
Lin Xun continued to use the body of Master to climb the tower.
Facing the guards on the 41st floor, Master Fa did not have an easy fight. He frequently used the 'Knowledge Grating' and 'Knowledge Spear'.
This is a battle between two magic masters, and the magic battle is comparable to a large fireworks scene.
Lin Xun didn't dare to use 'Light of the Meteor' because the amount of mana consumed by this skill was too terrifying.
His mental energy-saving play style ended up running out of blue bars after he persisted until the 46th floor.
I had no choice but to exit the illusion.
After using the rewards from the fortieth floor, his knowledge has reached 600/15200, which is nearly three times what it was before entering the 'Star Tower'.
Lin Xun was a little unwilling. He was still four levels away from getting the fifty-level reward.
After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and flipped through the book again, entering the illusion.
…
An hour later, the number of challenge levels was fixed at forty-nine.
This time, Lin Xun saved the mana of the Master and the health of the Earth Giant throughout the whole process, and used the most conservative play style.
Even the low-level guards use their remaining bodies to challenge.
Even so, it only breaks the record to forty-nine, and is still one level away from the fifty-level reward.
He saw the guards on the fiftieth floor. As soon as they released the knowledge grating, they were exhausted and fainted, causing the challenge to fail.
"According to my current strength, reaching the forty-ninth level is the limit."
Lin Xun shook his head and stopped trying to enter the illusion.
Before, his knowledge was not enough to meet the requirements to use the teleportation scroll and go to the 'Star Chasing Corridor'.
Now that the upper limit of knowledge has reached 15,000, Lin Xun tried to click on the prop again.
[Do you want to use the teleportation scroll of the Star Chasing Corridor to teleport to the Star Chasing Corridor? 】
[Your upper limit of knowledge has reached the transmission conditions.]
[You don’t know the true meaning of the ‘Star Chasing Corridor’ yet, so you can’t teleport to the destination! 】
His amount of knowledge has reached the standard and meets the transmission standards, but the underworld game has introduced a new transmission requirement.
Lin Xun frowned and thought.
According to the style of the underworld game, the "Star Chasing Corridor" has so many teleportation requirements, and the rewards must not be small.
The more difficult a place is to enter, the more generous the reward will be.
Before getting the teleportation scroll, he had never seen the words "Star Chasing Corridor".
According to the transmission requirements, if you want to know its true meaning, you can only ask the plot characters to see if you can get relevant information.
He went straight to the ‘Eyeball Laboratory’ on the second floor of the Polyvision Association.
[You step into the ‘Eyeball Laboratory’...]
[When Bennett saw you coming, he quickly put down the experimental equipment in his hands.]
[It tells you that its eyeball synthesis technique has achieved some success. 】
[Last time, it transplanted the eyeball of the ‘Underground Shadow Demon King’ for the messenger of the true god, but the eyeball had a major flaw, that is, it could not work in brightly lit areas. 】
[It thought about it and couldn't sleep at night. It always felt that its defective eyeballs were not worthy of the great messenger of the true God. 】
[So he went to the ‘Ancient Books Library’ on the second floor of the association to browse through information and try to find a solution to the eye defect. 】
[Fortunately, the ‘Almighty True Knowledge’ favored it, and it found a solution as it wished. 】
[As long as the eyeballs of phototropic animals are combined with the eyeballs of the ‘Underground Shadow Demon King’, you can get a pair of perfect eyes. 】
[Even more fortunately, among the large number of eyeballs it brought from the transplant clinic, there were eyeballs that met the requirements. 】
[It’s just that the eyeballs that meet the conditions are mixed with other eyeballs in the fine copper box. It needs to screen one by one from dozens of fine copper boxes to find the required eyeball. 】
[There are giant monsters running rampant outside the Knowledge Association, and there is also what the messenger of the true god calls the ‘obfuscated monster overlord’. It does not dare to open the fine copper box for fear of attracting danger. 】
[You shake your head and tell Bennett that there is no need to worry. You have killed all the giant monsters and the 'Mysterious Monster Overlord' in the city. He can safely open the copper box and look for the eyeballs. 】
[Bennett was overjoyed when he heard about it. He repeatedly praised the power of the true messenger of God and promised you that it will immediately start the work of screening eyeballs. When the true messenger of God comes next time, it will eliminate the defects of your eyeballs. 】
Lin Xun originally wanted to ask Bennett to see if it had heard of the 'Corridor of Stars', but unexpectedly a special event was triggered.
Eliminating the defects of the 'Underground Shadow Demon King''s eyeballs means that the dancer's stealth skills are enhanced and will no longer be disturbed by environmental factors.
Whether in a dark place or a well-lit place, the invisibility effect can be greatly enhanced.
"Bennett is such a good person. I said you were a profiteer before, but I was too one-sided."
Lin Xun couldn't help but sigh.
[You take out the ‘Teleportation Scroll of the Star-Chasing Corridor’ and show it to Bennett.]
[Bennet stared at the scroll in your hand, pondered for a long time, shook his head, and told you frankly that it had never seen this thing before, and had never heard of the 'Corridor of Stars'. 】
[Just listen to the word ‘stars’, maybe the followers of the evil god will know the secret. 】
Lin Xun had a bad feeling.
What does it mean that maybe only the believers of the stars will know the secret... Do you have to join the oath of the stars to meet the teleportation standards?
He quickly shook his head to get this ominous feeling out of his mind.
There are specialties in the field. As a transplant doctor, it is understandable that Bennett didn't know about the 'Corridor of Stars'. Bennett just guessed it based on the place name.
If Lorna hadn't left yet, he might be able to get key clues from the knowledgeable Lorna.
[Seeing your silence, Bennett reminds you that messengers of the true God might as well go to the ‘Ancient Books Library’ to read the information, and you may gain something. 】
[Are you going to the ‘Ancient Books Library’ to look for information about the ‘Corridor of Stars’? 】
Lin Xun's eyes lit up.
There are many books in the ancient book library, which is a good place to find information.
[You leave the ‘Eyeball Laboratory’ and enter the ‘Ancient Books Library’ on one side. 】
[You look at the tall stacks of bookshelves and begin to search for information in the sea of books. 】
【Searching...】
[You find a professional book on the bookshelf, titled "On the Development Prospects of the Multi-View School and the End of the Straight-View School"]
【You are not interested at all, so you throw the book into the corner.】
【Searching...】
[You find an adult book on the bottom of the bookshelf. The title is "The Day I Explored the Abyss and Was Caught by the Underground Demon"]
[You are very interested, and you read it again and again... After a long time, you sigh that it is an eye-opener, and then you feel bored...]
[Your knowledge has been increased by 1 point, and the current knowledge is 601/15200]
【Searching...】
Lin Xun looked at the game article with a dark expression on his face.
The underworld game never changes, and it will pop out from time to time to prank him.
【Searching...】
[You have roughly browsed the books in the library and found no information related to the ‘Star-chasing Corridor’. 】
"There is no relevant information even in the ancient book library. Do you really have to join the 'Bright Stars' pledge to be teleported?"
Lin Xun is an oathbreaker.
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't make the Star Oath again.
Moreover, with the behavior of the 'Children of the Stars', joining the camp of stars will definitely not be more comfortable than embracing the lap of the 'Almighty True Knowledge'.
I was secretly sighing that I had nowhere to go...
He suddenly slapped his forehead and thought of the key clue.
The Teleportation Scroll was obtained from University Scholar McGuire, and the Polyvision Society is McGuire's home base, with its office on the fifth floor of the building.
There must be relevant information in McGuire's office!
