Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

It had been almost an hour since the battle had begun in the city. Thousands of deaths had already occurred across the empire and continent, but armies of tens of thousands of soldiers had already entered the 37th floor to help.

James and Ariel, followed by Ariel, had passed through the demon beasts and were chasing after the strange things that James had felt before, which could be considered as 'seals'.

When they reached the northern part of the city, they realised that a very high level of clean mana was emitted from the small wooded area inside the city.

More precisely, this 'seal' was made of pure mana, it felt like the pure mana of a child, and that was the scary thing.

If such pure mana wasn't made by an incredibly good-hearted mage or someone who was entangled in sacred magic, it meant that a sacrifice had been made.

That's what was so frightening about a child's pure mana, the possibility of child sacrifice was literally on display. Explore more adventures at empire

When James and Ariel got closer to the seal, they were able to see what was inside the seal with their eyes. It was nothing more than another ancient demon. The fact that this time there were no weakening spells or dodgy rune sequences made it all the better.

James suddenly gripped the Lumen tightly by the hilt and then began to gather a not-insignificant amount of aura and magic into the Godly Sword Lumen.

After almost ten seconds of careful summoning, he inserted the sword, albeit slowly, into the seal and then, as calmly as possible, pierced what he thought was the ancient demon right through the neck.

Because the seal was small and the being inside looked like an ancient demon, James thought that they had indeed encountered such a being, but this was not the case.

[I think they're trying to gather energy for a bigger seal. This is a very, very small seal to contain an ancient demon or another ancient demon beast].

Upon reading this message from Erebus, James suddenly chooses to take Ariel with him to the lord's house in the city. Perhaps there they might succeed in finding the sister of the twin nobles.

Even though they were acting with this hope, they still did not have great hope. After all, it was necessary to be realistic, not many people could survive such a thing, even if this was the 27th floor, most of the people born in the tower tried to spend their lives without climbing the tower.

This meant that the chances of the twins' sister being alive were no more than 5 per cent. It was close to impossible.

Still, James wanted to keep his promise to the twins.

He had searched the city lord's house and had come across a few traces. These were a few traces that were drawn with a very good spell control. Whoever it was who had drawn these marks was a little beyond James in terms of spell control, James did not doubt that it was someone who had completed at least the 10th and perhaps even the 11th magic circle.

After all, it had taken James almost ten minutes to recognise these marks.

They had followed the tracks for a short time and after this short time, they had found a small door where the tracks converged.

It was incredible that this door leading to the basement of the house was undiscovered.

James gently deciphered the spell codes he had found on the door and after opening the door, he and Ariel proceeded to the basement.

After an incredibly deep descent of almost five minutes, they finally reached a place where there was light.

James and Ariel were stunned by the sight they saw.

There were perhaps over a thousand people standing in the basement of the city lord's house. The people who saw James and Ariel began to rush and after a short time, a woman came forward.

"May I know who you are?" the mysterious woman asked, holding a thin knife hidden in her clothes in her right hand. James couldn't miss it; after all, he held Selene's Throwing Knife in the same way.

'I'm here to find the sister of the twin brothers Adam and Alan,' James replied, and with that, he realised that the knife the woman in front of him had hidden had suddenly disappeared.

"That would be me, my name is Alissa, my brothers...where are they?" asked the woman who had introduced herself as Alissa.

Hearing these words, James smiled with relief and then said, "They are in the Imperial Palace. We will teleport you all there. Please pack up."

With that, he opened one of the teleportation scrolls in his hand and activated the spell by sending its mana to the scroll.

If he tore the scroll, only he and those who physically touched it could go with him, but transferring magic to the scroll and activating it would transfer a large magic ring to a selected location on the flat earth.

This meant that a massive teleportation spell would take place.

Alissa quickly gathered over a thousand commoners and even the nobles who had come here to visit and were trapped in the magic ring, and with that, James knelt on the ground and transferred above-average magic to the place where the magic ring would work so that the spell would work smoothly.

After a brief flash, everyone disappeared and Ariel and James no longer had any reason not to fight.

The two stared at each other for a second and then ran towards the exit and quickly ran towards the town square to join the battle.

There were already thousands of corpses of demon beasts around. There were so many corpses that it was quite difficult to go anywhere without stepping on the corpses.

Still, they had to move as fast as possible for him to join the battle.

When James used his dark step ability and passed Ariel, he could see a black dot in the air in the distance. As his gaze locked on it, he realised that it was another demon. It didn't look like an ancient demon, though he didn't know if there were other types of ancient demons or other ancient beings.

There was very little information about these beings in the imperial library, after all.

That was exactly why James had chosen to ignore these things and attack. He climbed up a building and started jumping from one roof to another. After a short time, he got close to the dark being and at that moment he saw Chao.

Using the Void Pen, he shouted directly into Chao's mind, "CHAO! FIRE ME!" and hearing this, Chao suddenly appeared behind James, grabbed him and threw him at the dark demon figure.

James managed to fly almost two hundred metres through the air at an incredible speed, and at that moment he gripped the Godly Sword Lumen tightly by the hilt, covering it with all 8 Sacred Fire. Perhaps fighting like this would have consumed much more mana and a little more aura, but at least this way he had the opportunity to take down the weak but dark demon figure in one attack.

The dark demonic figure had not recognised James and this would be the cause of his death.

In just four seconds, James came from the ground into the air, right where the dark demon was, and cut it in half.

A huge lunge of flame flashed across the sky, even the rain falling from the clouds in the sky was vaporised by the heat of the flames for a few seconds and no drops of water reached the earth.

The dark demonic figure was burnt to ashes, and then not only that, its ashen existence was burnt out of existence.

With that, James began to fall to earth at a very high speed.

Chao suddenly started flying and caught James in a short time. When James landed on the earth, he was surrounded by climbers and cultivators who looked at him with astonishment and amazement.

"THE BATTLE IS NOT OVER! CONTINUE!!! PUSH FORWARD!" James suddenly shouted and with that, all the troops attacked for the last time.

The city was not besieged, but at least the demon troops had been stopped. Perhaps only one of the ten thousand ancient monsters had been killed, but even that was pretty good.

"Sir Umbra! We have news from the Olympian troops. Perseus, Theseus and Eteocles have already managed to kill three ancient demons. The Olympus troops are asking for orders to advance, sir."

Both Chao, James and Ariel, who had caught up with them, looked at Yorhun's sudden news with great surprise.

"Your husband is doing a great job," James suddenly said to Ariel.

Ariel nodded her head, even though she was embarrassed, and replied, "I know that already."

After this small talk, James turned to the young Yorhun and said, "Tell Theseus and Perseus not to return until they have killed at least a hundred ancient monsters."

With these words, it was time for the friendly sides to launch a decisive attack.
