Standing on the ground floor of the 611th floor, He Jiong and his two companions continued their discussion with some lingering interest.
He Jiong exclaimed excitedly, "With the foundation laid by our leader, commanding those idiots in Heavenly Court is so easy! They believe everything they say, haha..."
Chen Hansheng shook his head in disagreement. "Put yourself in their shoes. They're actually terrified by the proven existence of 'heavens beyond heavens,' and they're so eager to know more that they're cooperating like this. If we were suddenly told one day that there's a world beyond our own, we'd probably be just as anxious and believe everything we hear."
"Well, what I said wasn't wrong either." He Jiong pouted. "Without the foundation laid by the boss, how could they easily believe that the world they're in is just a level within a tower?"
Mi Lailai did not join their discussion.
Watching Wang Wen's retreating figure, he sighed, "So this is what it's like above the 600th floor! The local natives can actually defy the rules of the World Tower! And this is only the 600th floor. What terrifyingly powerful figures will they encounter further up? What's even more terrifying is that while other Tower Climber are still mediocrely progressing through the levels to clear the game, he has already explored the world and unearthed so many powerful figures to serve him! Could it really be as those natives say, that this man is going to be a 'defiant against the heavens'?"
As the three were talking...
The 611th floor has also been completed.
Wang Wen stood at the entrance, looking at the three of them strangely. "How long are you guys planning to stand there like idiots?"
As if waking from a dream, the three rushed over in a chaotic commotion, squeezing through the entrance.
It's no wonder they were slow to react.
I really didn't expect Wang Wen to maintain such an incredible speed of clearing the game even after reaching the 600th floor.
Even He Jiong, who had followed Wang Wen at breakneck speed many times before, found this speed a bit overwhelming.
After all, he had only ever reached the 600th floor before.
It's only been three days since we entered the tower, and there's still so much time left. If we continue at this pace, will this tower climb be like flying?
He Jiong and the other two watched Wang Wen silently and intently progress through the game, and they all felt somewhat uneasy.
After everyone effortlessly filled the progress bar and cleared the 660th floor that blocked the entire world, Mi Lailai finally couldn't help but ask Wang Wen, "Where are we going?"
Wang Wen didn't understand at first.
After thinking for a while, she realized what she meant and honestly replied, "It depends on luck. If possible, it would be best to try and reach the 800th floor, since I promised my suitor I would take you there."
"You still remember that?" Mi Lailai, both amused and exasperated. "Can you please not make the impact on the tower levels sound so trivial?"
Wang Wen was slightly taken aback.
He then nodded. "I'll definitely do it next time."
His hands kept moving.
The 661st floor, which just appeared, has also ended.
Including the time wasted chatting with women, the total time to reach the 661st floor of the World Tower was 22 seconds.
He currently possesses over 3100 units of energy within his body.
Even if you don't use any skills and just rely on brute force to clear the game, it won't consume much energy.
The minuscule fraction can be replenished simply through the natural recovery process during the Foundation Establishment stage.
Mi Lailai and the other two almost fainted.
Realizing that lying there like this wasn't a solution, Mi Lailai tried asking Wang Wen, "It's not good for you to be working so hard all by yourself. Is there anything I can do to help?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Wen glanced at her.
I thought about it.
He glanced at her again.
He racked his brains and thought about it for a long time, longer than it took him to clear one level.
Mi Lailai was speechless. "Is it that difficult? Just tell me what to do! Surely a beautiful woman like me can't be of any help?"
Wang Wen comforted her, "Yes, yes."
He thought about it carefully again, and finally said sincerely, "Try Don't Disturb me."
"???"
Mi Lailai a while to understand what he meant, and she was so angry that she almost ripped her bra out and threw it at his face.
She turned and left angrily, not wanting to say another word to him, determined to just watch him work himself to death without offering any help.
Seeing this, Wang Wen nodded with satisfaction.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I can climb the tower in peace.
A dozen minutes later, the group arrived at the 700th floor of the World Tower.
Apart from Wang Wen, the other three were all newbies who had just reached level 700. They were dazzled by the dazzling array of self-selected treasures, drooling and standing there dumbfounded.
Wang Wen did not interfere with their choices.
I stood quietly to the side, watching the level selection in the Same-Floor Teleportation system.
With 700 floors, there's not much to choose from.
Commoner World with only one belief. " the Demon."
But that world has reversed progress. If I go there again, who knows what kind of trouble will cause and waste my time? Last time, the plague completely blocked my progress and I almost couldn't finish the game.
If there were any better options, Wang Wen wouldn't want to try her luck in that world that goes against the natural order.
Unfortunately, this is the only level out of 700 that I've cleared so far.
This time, the people he brought along weren't experienced team members like Zhu Xingguo, with whom he had worked together for a long time and had a good understanding of each other. At most, he had a reasonably capable errand boy named He Jiong, but the rest were all "useless."
I have absolutely no confidence in using random levels to fight tough battles.
If something happens, Chen Hansheng, the only one with special permission, is a coward who's always running for his life, leaving Wang Wen completely helpless.
Thinking about it this way, the Commoner World doesn't seem so bad after all?
At least there aren't as many unknown variables.
Wang Wen rubbed her chin, looking at the options for Same-Floor Teleportation.
I've already made up my mind.
Lately, I've been gaining less and less divine power from the Commoner World.
It seems like the common people are a bunch of ungrateful wretches who have forgotten their mothers after they've had their fill, and their devotion to the " Demon " has plummeted.
They should go back and discipline them, so they'll remember their mistake and never forget them.
After thinking about all this...
After the three experts selected their prized rewards, Wang Wen began the level.
The goal: a world with reversed timelines.
Commoners, your Demon master is back!
The mist surrounding the four gradually dissipated.
Before them lay the same desolate expanse of yellow earth where Wang Wen had first entered.
The situation is quite similar.
The aircraft started issuing warnings before anything was even done.
[Target dead, level progress decreased by 0.13, current level progress is -0.13%]
[Target dead, level progress decreased by 2.94, current level progress is -3.07%]
[...]
Wang Wen was furious.
Here we go again?
Is this ever going to end?!
He led the three men, He Jiong, straight up the hillside ahead.
Looking around, the once small village is now completely destroyed and deserted.
Wang Wen frowned, too lazy to investigate further, and directly activated the teleportation to send the four of them to the Southern Dynasty palace in his memory.
He wanted to find the young emperor and get to the bottom of this.
What disaster has struck again, causing such widespread suffering?
We need to ask Xue Chong and Xue Bo Ru. Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on the believers? Why are they still dying??
The four disappeared, enveloped in white light.
At this time, the young emperor and the Southern Dynasty's martial saint were nowhere to be seen in the Southern Dynasty's palace.
Instead, a large number of armored soldiers were feasting, drinking, eating meat, and chatting loudly.
One of the men, who appeared to be a general, held up some kind of jade ornament from the imperial palace and exclaimed in admiration, "What a vast and prosperous central region! After so many years of famine, we still have such fighting strength! If His Majesty hadn't officially decided to go to war and sent you and me here, I would hardly believe that this small dynasty could be so wealthy!"
Upon hearing this, another general raised his cup and gestured towards the west outside the palace, then said loudly, "In the end, it is His Majesty's foresight that is truly remarkable! After extensive investigation, he learned that this young emperor had conquered the four neighboring countries in the east, west, south, and north, seizing the glory of the throne. He concluded that the army's forces were scattered and unstable, which led to our smooth victory in this battle!"
"Hahaha..." the general holding the jade artifact laughed loudly, "After this battle, General Wang will surely be rewarded with high office and generous salary upon returning to court, and will enjoy wealth and honor from now on!"
The man addressed as "General Wang" tilted his head back, downed the liquid in his glass, let out a long breath, and said heartily, "General Yang, you are too kind! Since the start of the battle, it has been thanks to the united efforts and valiant fighting of all the soldiers. I, Wang, dare not claim credit for myself. Upon returning to court, I will recount your merits in detail to His Majesty to ensure fairness!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding soldiers...
They quickly stood up, bowed, and cheered loudly in thanks.
The atmosphere inside the venue was enthusiastic.
Everyone's face was beaming with the joy of victory.
Only the man to General Wang's right, looking worried, spoke softly, disregarding the occasion. "The soldiers of this small dynasty are indeed extremely scattered, just as Your Majesty predicted, and would collapse at the first touch. However, it is rumored that this country has immortals assisting them. Whether our army can win remains to be seen. Everyone, please do not be careless!"
General Wang paused.
The smile on his face faded slightly.
He put down his wine glass and nodded slightly.
Seeing the previously enthusiastic atmosphere suddenly turn sour, General Yang retorted unhappily, "Don't believe or spread rumors! We've traveled without any obstacles; where are these immortals? I think it's all nonsense! Besides, this time, with the entire nation's strength and a million armored troops led by General Wang, we've launched a multi-pronged attack. No ghosts, gods, or demons would dare show their faces! If any dare to show their faces, I, Yang, will cut off their heads and make a delicious dish to go with my wine!"
At the entrance of the palace.
The white light had just dissipated when the four people, who were still examining the interior, looked at each other in bewilderment upon hearing this conversation.
