Surviving the Fourth Calamity

Chapter 2380: The Door of Only 10 Seconds
Some people seem to be adding points randomly, but they actually rely on external forces... strength potions accumulated with small amounts of money, and blessings gained from good relationships.

Although it sounds weird, the 'Old Sanda King' has not affected his original duties at all, and his spirit and endurance are added according to the standard attributes of a combat priest!
Some people, on the other hand, take the points that should have been used on their professional characteristics and add irrelevant strength instead.

The reason why the little Loli likes to play with bombs is because she has no use for them except for some auras and magic that do not require much mana.

Although in order to make up for this shortcoming, she embarked on the path of her current bomb-making maniac...but, even if she made the bombs herself, it would still be a waste of money!

In fact, the little Loli's problem can be solved with a simple reset. If she becomes a standard light priest, coupled with her excellent bomb-making technology, she will definitely become very powerful.

But even though the undead surrounding here were full of mockery, no one would say such useless words...Those who could get together with the little loli actually had very weird styles, and were all very self-centered.

No one cares what the mainstream is.

In fact, the reason why they got together was because there was a rare time-limited task that suddenly appeared and fell into the hands of people like them who were leisurely and did whatever they wanted.

Although no one is too lazy to grab it normally, no one wants to give up the hard-to-get benefits.

Everyone was talking about this and that around the gray wizard, and even wanted to point out the little Loli's identity as a famous bomb maniac and a useless priest. Wasn't it just to divert the attention of the big family managers who were observing from a distance?
Although the sudden mission from Hill cannot be concealed from anyone,... it can make people ignore the importance of this mission.

Anyway, Hill always issues missions to purify the land and restore nature after a war with severe pollution.

But this time, perhaps due to certain factors... Although they are not quite sure, these individual people can be sure that those big families, especially the people from Aotian League, know what Hill wants to do... Xiao Xiong issued this purification task in advance.

If it was just this kind of mission, as long as the mission rewards were not those powerful and beautiful alchemical products, but just general rewards such as favorability and energy crystals, those big families would still be able to stick to their bottom line and not compete with them.

However... the scattered people who accepted the mission focused their attention on the war goals of William's camp: attacking the Tower of Despair, solving the mastermind behind the scenes and other tasks, which almost occupied a quarter of the main mission!

Although they didn't understand the cause and effect very well, and didn't know why the Tower of Despair was so important, they still had no problem doing the math.

Touching the small crystal bottle in the bag and thinking about the glorious moment they are about to face, the visitors are extremely excited.

Even in this situation, they managed to achieve a rare bit of cooperation... If they had been able to do this before, they wouldn't have been scolded by so many people who had broken their defense and flooded the forum with messages.

This is also the reason why Hill wants these people to take the task.

They won't think about the reasons, nor will they consider whether they can maximize the benefits of this task, nor will they dig into the inside story...Being able to complete it is the happiest thing for them.

Although his mind is not conversant, his actions remain unchanged.

"Do you promise not to plant a bomb?" the gray-robed wizard asked very seriously.

Although he had not had much contact with these undead, he still had a vague feeling that the undead would basically not go back on their promises.

Of course, this must be done on the condition that the local residents do not play tricks or stab us in the back.

However, for a mage like the Gray Robe Mage who has been engaged in smuggling for many years, the trading partner who can do this is simply an angel.

His earth talent is definitely not the best among his mage talents.

Therefore, to be able to reach this point today is entirely due to the help of various trading partners.

As for his own origins… Among the ten magic towers, although the Tower of Despair and the Tower of Defense are the most powerful, and the Tower of Darkness is also famous for its bad luck, the other magic towers are not completely without presence.

However, for magic towers like them whose strength and luck were not so 'good', the Tower of Xiya was like a huge mountain above their heads.

Even if they wanted to resist, they could only do so by sacrificing their own people... such as smugglers like the Grey Robe Mage.

Over the years, although he has become wealthy because of these private transactions, he has also taken huge risks... If the Tower of Xia catches him, the magic tower he came from will never admit that it has anything to do with him.

He could only be directly executed as one of those wild mages who didn't even act like a human in the wild.

The Tower of Xiya actually knew the origins of these people... For those wild mages, the best fate was already that they could survive without devouring the bodies of their own kind. How could they be like him?
But they wouldn't necessarily dig up his identity and background.

Killing him and all those who do the same as him is the greatest threat that the Tower of Sea can pose to these rebels.

Therefore, the Gray Robe Mage actually has a good impression of the Undead and the existence behind them, who have caused the Tower of Xia to suffer a great loss but have not said a word and are still hiding in their own territory without moving.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so polite.

He just didn't want to face the threat of death after having already made it through... He was already suffering from having to help the Tower of Despair because of the debts he had in the past.

But, as long as he delivers the things in the bag, his previous debt can be written off.

Then, why does he care what he will face after the Tower of Despair?
The Undead acted very ostentatiously, with no intention of hiding the evil done by the Tower of Despair.

How could someone like the Gray Robe Wizard have any good feelings towards the Tower of Despair?
Even when he thought about the past events and confirmed that there were some mysterious existences in the magic tower behind him, the gray-robed wizard had an urge to join the undead.

But because of the existence of Ruth, the only great victim in the world, the gray-robed wizard, the forces behind him, and those similar to them, were still relatively rational.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have figured it out. He had to take advantage of the Tower of Despair's urgent need for external resources to settle the debts of favor and the contracts he had signed. What would he do if the Undead were not controlled well and one or two people escaped from the Tower of Despair and asked them for help?
Besides, if he doesn't pay back when he's worth ten times as much as he deserves, isn't he sick?
Moreover, the existence of the Styx is no longer a secret.

The dead are also subject to cause and effect... If I don't pay it back now, will I have to work like a slave for them in the City of Death?
He doesn't want to do that.

The gray-robed wizard, who had a strong sense of contract as a businessman, resolutely came to the Tower of Despair... As expected, the transaction ratio offered by those guys inside made him very satisfied.

So, if the undead can guarantee his safety, then it is not impossible for him to bring them in.

What the Gray Robe Wizard said about a passage that will be destroyed if 10 people walk through it is actually half true and half false.

In order to give himself enough time to escape, there was no way he could teach the real full number.

But he didn't go too far.

What's wrong with giving a discount on the 18-person limit?
Including him, there are already 11 people!

But if this group of undeads just start to explode, then he won’t be able to prepare anything.

There's no point running faster.

The first thing the Tower of Despair would do would definitely be to destroy the passage.

Of course, after the Gray Robe Mage's efforts to persuade him, before his feet became numb and he lost all feeling, he and the Undead finally reached an agreement:
The Undead ensured that they would never use any bomb resources before being discovered, especially before the Gray Robe Mage traded the resources with the other party.

The gray-robed wizard will keep the passage open for at least 10 seconds when he turns around to exit.

Although the gray-robed wizard couldn't figure out what the undead were planning to do, he still agreed readily.

It would only take 10 seconds, and he could do it if the natural materials that could disrupt the magic circle accidentally dropped from his hand.

However, he still warned the undead seriously...it would take at least 10 minutes to walk into that passage.

Then he led the undead in without hesitation.

The reason why he dared to cause trouble outside the Tower of Despair so arrogantly was because the undead were ruthless enough.

Looking up, the magic spells were so powerful that it was almost impossible to see the three main towers of the Tower of Despair.

Moreover, the undead cast all kinds of spells.

The Tower of Despair cannot cast any spy spells.

If there weren't a few secret passages and unlucky people like him who had slowly owed the Tower of Despair a lot over hundreds of years of transactions, the people inside would have probably collapsed long ago.
-
"Sir, have you blessed these undead?" Lister, dazzled by what he saw, couldn't help but ask.

"No, what is there to bless the undead? The multiverse doesn't care about their existence. Blessing tools is useless, Lister."

Hill smiled.

But he did feel in his heart that it would be great if this thing was successful and if it could be beneficial to Uniflora.

Although I don’t know if his wish was answered...but as long as the result is good, it’s fine.

He now has some idea. If he doesn't want his wish to have too much impact, it is best to limit the scope of the wish to a certain area from the beginning.

Even if you use tools, don't let the number of them be so large that it causes a qualitative change.

Therefore, it is good like this now... These undead creatures are rather solitary in nature, and even if they get together, they have no concept of cooperation.

Even though they knew that the more people used the purification potion, the better the effect, they only wanted to leave a door that would close in 10 seconds for the people behind them.

Hill's mood now should be as happy as that of several undead who were quick-eyed and quick-handed and directly occupied the top 10 positions in the secret passage.
