CHAPTER 54: CHAPTER 54: AT ALL COSTS!

Endless Tower, 57th floor!

Here, the ceiling is higher, the area larger, and the size of the monsters seems to have increased exponentially.

The windows of the surrounding towers offer a view.

You can see dark clouds gathering densely around, thunderclouds rolling.

Lu Ran raised his eyes to look.

In the distance stood the floor guardian BOSS of the 57th floor.

[Level 57 Holy Fire Bull (57th floor)]

Still a Divine Series monster.

Its massive body resembles a small mountain, covered in golden fur that seemed to rise and twist like flames.

Its four legs stood on the ground like four towering pillars.

But Lu Ran had long been accustomed to this.

As soon as he stepped out of the safe zone, the magic staff appeared in his hand.

Then, space tore, and the Blood Spear that had been charged all night shot out.

Whoosh!

Bang!

In the blink of an eye, it hit the Bull.

Poor Bull could never have dreamed that being the 57th floor BOSS of the Endless Tower, it would be so fragile.

Just triggered aggro because of Lu Ran stepping out of the safe zone, and before it could even see clearly, its health bar was already depleted!

[Congratulations on clearing the 57th floor of the Endless Tower, gaining 570,000 experience]

Having gained the experience, Lu Ran glanced at the stairs that appeared leading to the next floor, but didn’t care, decisively exiting the Endless Tower.

At the same time.

In the Japan Dungeon hall.

Nanami’s pupils shrank suddenly, staring at the global ranking panel of the Endless Tower, her body involuntarily trembled slightly.

The time right now is eight thirty-seven!

Exactly the same as yesterday, with only a few minutes’ difference!

This was enough to confirm her guess.

That Undead Mage, wasn’t attempting to climb floors adventurously, but was taking down one floor each morning and evening at fixed times.

And highly likely in one attempt, without a second try!

Although now even Nanami could clear the 57th floor in one go.

But she couldn’t guarantee she would use the least time on the 57th floor!

Yet the Undead Mage she had previously ignored actually did it!

Now the Undead Mage’s ranking.

Global fifth!

The face of the maid beside her also turned very unsightly.

Instinctively said, "President, the opponent has climbed to fifth place, but there’s still a gap with you. It’s just an Undead Mage, probably won’t continue, right?"

Nanami glanced at the maid.

Said calmly, "If he were just an ordinary Undead Mage, do you think he could clear the 57th floor with the shortest time? And he’s not even level 53!"

The maid immediately dared not make a sound.

Nanami also knew the maid was trying to comfort her, but comfort had no effect whatsoever.

Nanami’s heart was twitching slightly at this moment.

This invisible pressure kept building, as if a pair of claws were tearing open her chest and squeezing her heart inside!

She even thought about trying the 62nd floor regardless of anything.

But eventually shook her head.

Said, "Continue to keep an eye on it."

Finished speaking, she turned around to leave, uninterested in the USA’s provocation against Longxia in the Deathmatch Arena.

But Lu Ran cared deeply, upon exiting the Endless Tower, looked at the Deathmatch Arena room still hanging there, yet no one dared to enter and challenge, with that extremely insulting room name.

Lu Ran gritted his teeth tightly.

"Lu Ran, let’s go, clear a dungeon." Liu Xinxin patted Lu Ran’s shoulder, said softly.

In the dungeon hall.

Countless people were still staring at the Deathmatch Arena room, yet under such humiliation, no one dared to fight, which was the biggest tragedy.

At the same time.

The change in Lu Ran’s ranking on the 57th floor of the Endless Tower naturally caught most people’s attention.

"As expected, I wasn’t wrong. That Undead Mage master is still climbing floors."

"Indeed, one floor after eight in the morning, another after six in the evening."

"How did the Undead Mage do it? That master doesn’t appear on the level leaderboard, yet not even level 53!"

"What use is it, so strong, try challenging the Deathmatch Arena, what’s the point of showing off in the Endless Tower?"

"If you can do it, go up yourself, an Undead Mage under level 53, you want him to go to the Deathmatch Arena to die?"

...

The dungeon hall was in a noisy uproar.

Meanwhile.

In the USA’s various main city dungeon halls.

It was bustling with joy.

"Hahaha... over thirty died yesterday afternoon, now no one dares to challenge."

"Longxia, a grand nation, yet isn’t it still suppressed by us?"

"Speaking of which, does anyone know who the master in the Deathmatch Arena is?"

"All this time has passed, still no one challenges? Where’s Yu Qingcang of Longxia? Where’s Lei Tai of the National Defense Army? Why aren’t they showing up."

"Cowards, whoever enters dies, hahaha..."

...

The Deathmatch Arena room persisted for three hours, disappearing around lunchtime.

Probably went to have lunch.

Lu Ran and the others also came out around lunchtime, seeing the Deathmatch Arena room disappear, yet their moods were not good.

After lunch, preparing to continue clearing, the Deathmatch Arena room reappeared!

The opponent seemed to enjoy it.

Seeing no one in Longxia dared to challenge, the opponent didn’t even train or clear dungeons, but spent all the time outside of eating creating rooms to mock Longxia!

The effect, needless to say.

Internationally, all kinds of opinions abounded.

Not mentioning the combat strength difference between Longxia and the USA, just the matter of the Deathmatch Arena room seemed as if Longxia was being unilaterally suppressed by the USA.

Lu Ran and his group gave a glance, ignored it, and continued to clear dungeons.

But in his heart, Lu Ran had already made a plan.

Tomorrow, upon turning level 25, the moment he unlocks new entries, he’ll enter to exact revenge!

And not only that, he’s going to use the same way to retaliate against the USA!

Anyone who comes, dies!

In the afternoon, the USA’s Deathmatch Arena room stayed until nearly six before disappearing.

When Lu Ran and the others came out, it was already gone.

But in Japan, Nanami had come to the dungeon hall as planned.

Her focus remained on the global ranking of the Endless Tower.

It seemed only by witnessing it herself would she believe what was about to happen.

And Lu Ran, naturally not disappointing her, entered the 58th floor before dinner, casually obliterating it with a Blood Spear, then exited.

With the experience reward from the 58th floor, Lu Ran was getting closer to level 25.

At the same time.

Lu Ran’s ranking jumped again.

Now with a record on the 58th floor, Lu Ran suppressed another person also on the 58th floor, ranking third globally!

Above Lu Ran was second place, Yu Qingcang!

Further up, at the very top, was first place, Nanami!

The distance, so close!

Nanami’s eyes fixed on the ranking panel, her chest heaving, indicating her emotions were extremely intense at this moment.

"President..." the maid said worriedly beside her.

"Help me contact the holder of the Eight-Eyed Luo Umbrella, Kamiya Si. No, I’ll contact personally!" Nanami gritted her teeth and said.

It was time to consider attempting the 62nd floor, she couldn’t just watch the opponent step on her!

And for this, she needed to acquire the Eight-Eyed Luo Umbrella!

Ranked third on the global equipment list, even suppressing the fourth-ranked Dragon Spine Greatsword!

At any cost!
