Chapter 351
Once the team understood just how dangerous the corridor truly was, they moved closer together and proceeded with extreme caution.Every step had to be considered carefully. They did not want to trigger another trap, especially after everything they had already encountered. Under that nerve-wracking pressure, they slowly made their way toward the halfway Volt.The halfway Volt was marked by a statue of a blind goddess, its eyes covered by a strip of silk tied around its head. However, the moment the team passed around the statue and continued down the corridor, something strange happened.The statue slowly turned its head backward.The silk covering its eyes slipped slightly.ShingggA pair of unnatural red lights appeared beneath the cloth.From that moment, the illusions affecting Rhys and Kratos became far more intense.The statue was an ancient runic artifact designed to amplify mental magic and illusions. Once the team entered its range, the effects became significantly stronger,
Chapter 350
After clearing the room filled with undead, the team entered a narrow corridor guarded by mind-controlling spirits.Fortunately, the head necromancer did not consider them dangerous enough to justify sending his stronger undead into these halls. He believed the spirits were more than capable of dealing with the weak adventurers who had entered his territory.The spirits guarding the corridor were all Tier 4 or stronger. They had no physical bodies and could not directly injure the adventurers, but their mental abilities were terrifying. Their illusions were powerful enough to affect every sense and could psychologically destroy an ordinary person.Because of this, the necromancer’s decision made perfect sense. A normal adventurer team would have almost no chance of resisting such powerful mental magic, so there was little reason to waste stronger undead protecting the corridor.Unfortunately for him, Rhys’s team was anything but normal.Kael and Varyn had already consumed the [Mind Gu

It took the team roughly a day to reach the necromancer’s hideout.The path leading toward his fortress was almost completely dark, and undead creatures patrolled the area at regular intervals. The creatures reacted violently whenever they sensed a source of light, making the illumination spell Kael maintained both useful and dangerous.Kael had to keep the spell active throughout their journey. It was simple enough to maintain, but it still consumed a small amount of his mana over time. Rhys knew the risks, yet he insisted that Kael continue using it. Being able to see their surroundings clearly was more valuable to him than the possibility of attracting a few undead patrols.Rhys did have a night vision potion stored in his inventory, but there was only one vial instead of the five he would have preferred to carry. He wanted to save it for a genuine emergency, so for now, keeping Kael’s illumination spell active was the better choice. At least the light allowed everyone to move with
Chapter 348
“Open System Shop,” Rhys muttered under his breath.After spending several hours researching Floor 24 without stopping, he finally decided it was time to purchase a few items from the System Shop. If his research was correct, the floor would be filled with illusions and other threats that could easily turn against them if they were not prepared.The familiar system panel appeared before him, displaying his refreshed SP balance.[ System Shop ]1. Perception Lens - 15 SP(A magical lens that lets the user see through basic illusions, revealing the true form of objects and creatures. Lasts for one hour per use.)2. Aura Stabilizer Pendant - 10 SP(A pendant that stabilizes the user’s aura, making it more difficult for illusionary creatures to alter the user’s senses or trick their mind.)3. Mind Guard Elixir - 5 SP(A potion that protects the mind from external manipulations, helping the user maintain focus and resist illusions for a limited time.)4. Emergency Teleport Scroll - 3 SP(A
Chapter 347
Rhys ran a hand through his hair as he tried to process Violet’s proposal.Having her join his team was not necessarily a bad idea, but the thought still made him uneasy.He knew how strong Violet had once been. She had been hailed as a rising star, a young talent with the potential to stand among Earth’s best Ascenders. However, everything she had endured recently had left her fragile, both physically and emotionally.Rhys could see that she was slowly recovering. The healthy glow had begun returning to her face, and she no longer looked as helpless as she had before. Even so, he was not convinced that she was ready to face the brutal challenges Ascenders encountered every day.He glanced toward Violet, who was nervously pacing near the dining table while waiting for his answer.She had clearly thought about this carefully, and the determination in her eyes made that obvious. Still, Rhys could not shake the discomfort that came from imagining her being dragged back into the dangerous
Chapter 346
After finishing his meeting with Vladimir and collecting the rewards for clearing the floor, Rhys returned to Earth in high spirits.His conversation with Vladimir had given him a great deal of new information about the Tower and the possible motives of the gods. What he needed now was time to examine everything he had learned and determine for himself how much of it was actually true.If Vladimir’s interpretation of events was correct, then Rhys was nothing more than a pawn being used by the Sol Gods, a convenient tool serving a purpose that had nothing to do with his own wishes.Yet, when Rhys considered how often the Sol Gods had helped him, seemingly without demanding anything in return, he found it difficult to believe that he was merely a disposable piece in their plans.Because of that, he preferred to believe there was more to the truth of the Tower than Vladimir’s grim explanation suggested. Until he could uncover that truth himself, Rhys had no intention of accepting Vladimi
