Cola was restless, barely managing a strained message to Mu You: "Mu You, I really want to play video games and watch anime..."
Unmoved by Cola’s plea, Mu You let the message go in one ear and out the other, unnoticed. Noticing it was already noon, he logged onto the forum.
He skimmed through some strategies on the forum, and at exactly 1 pm, he logged into the game and arrived in front of the Tower of Warriors.
[You have chosen ’Moon Goddess’ as your Primary Faith and ’Fire God’ as your Secondary Belief. Do you confirm?]
Mu You clicked confirm.
Yes, this time, he had chosen to enter the tower with the Moon Emblem and the Badge of Fire.
Originally, he had planned to choose the luck-based Star Badge to leverage the effects of the Pocket Watch, but after a trial run yesterday, he realized it wouldn’t work because the battles in the Tower of Warriors didn’t show the process but just the outcomes, rendering the Pocket Watch useless.
The Pocket Watch could randomize a specific event, but across an entire battle as the Star Warrior, one wouldn’t know how many random events would occur, making the method of rolling results entirely impractical.
After reviewing other badges, Mu You finally settled on the Fire Element.
The Divine Arts of the Fire Element were known for their Berserk and offensive capabilities, but what Mu You needed wasn’t the Fire Element’s offense but another aspect of it: forging!
The Fire God, fully named the ’God of Flames and Forging,’ was renowned for his forging skills.
In the Tower of Warriors, this forging capability allowed for ’upgrading’ Relics; with continuous forging, even an Ordinary Relic could be elevated to a Divine Artifact!
Thus, Mu You essentially used the Badge of Fire as a Blacksmith, strengthening the Moon-related items to enhance his strength, which was a strategy not to be overlooked.
[You have encountered Warrior no. 54777415...]
Upon entering the tower and choosing the left side on the second floor, this time he didn’t immediately encounter number one. Given the vast number of qualified warriors and most using up their tries in the morning, even at a specific time, there were still many gathered in the same second.
Mu You had to roll nearly a hundred times on his watch before finally landing on number one.
[You have encountered Warrior no. 1...]
Here, Mu You deliberately removed his equipment, leaving only the Moon Scepter, and didn’t promote his character to avoid being too strong and outright crushing the opponent.
[After a cruel slaughter, you have performed an Ultimate Kill on Warrior no. 1...]
Only after rolling this result did Mu You go on to acquire the Moon Goddess’s Eye, outfit it, enhance it, and proceed forward.
Initially, Mu You hadn’t expected to clear the game in one go; any progress beyond yesterday was deemed a success.
However, this round turned out to be a pleasant surprise for Mu You: his luck was exceptionally good, encountering special events repeatedly and hitting a jackpot of rewards early on boosted his resources to an absurd level!
This accumulation of resources smoothly initiated the snowball effect; from the first to the seventieth floor, he passed through each without any hindrance, so smoothly that Mu You himself barely believed it.
From the seventieth to eightieth floor, the difficulty increased significantly, but thanks to his early advantage, these ten floors were still no pressure.
Further down, from eightieth to ninetieth floor, the difficulty escalated again; this time, it became somewhat bumpier, but he still passed without any real danger.
After struggling with the ninety-floor boss with the help of the Pocket Watch, Mu You suddenly felt his heartbeat quicken.
As is well known, every ten floors feature a boss, whose difficulty might even surpass the later normal floors. Adding in the ’Blessing of the Moon God,’ which restored him to full status at the start of each floor, clearing the ninetieth-floor boss often meant having the capability to reach the ninety-ninth floor directly...
Could it be that today he might actually clear the game smoothly?
