Chapter 288: Chapter 184: Challenge the Star Dome Tower, Memory of Starry Sky_1
"Forget it, better to repay my debt first... I still owe my female boss four Divine items."
The result of Li Xingyue’s application for the Legendary Grade Divine items is still unknown, but Lin Xun knows his boss will definitely help him fight for it.
In doing so, she’ll undoubtedly have to leverage her own resources and connections.
Lin Xun must try his best to fill the gap, he can’t let the black silk dominatrix struggle alone, it takes two to make a responsible move.
With this in mind, he continues his hunt for wild behemoths.
There are no behemoths left in the city, so he has to venture out into the wild, roaming back and forth between the ’Abyss Cave’ and ’Star Dome Tower’.
Based on the driving time, neither of these locations is far from the city, and the distance between them is not long at all.
...
[Endless starlight bloomed, the massive creature fell with a thunderous crash, causing dust to fill the ruins...]
[You’ve defeated the ’Mist Barrier Monster seeking Knowledge’, your experience points have greatly increased.]
[You obtained the ’Mist Barrier Monster’s Crystallite’ (Rare+ Level Item)]
Lin Xun exhaled deeply.
Looking out the window, it was already dark.
After a busy day, he had only come across two behemoths.
Throughout the journey, the car door was wide open, the refined copper full of eyeballs was exposed to attract behemoths with their scent.
Unfortunately, there were far fewer behemoths in the wild than in the city.
Behemoths are attracted by the scent of eyeballs and consume each other, the more populated the place, the more behemoths there are.
The scarce number of behemoths in the desolate wilderness was to his expectation.
Lin Xun speculated that if he moved further away from Sofia city, he might not encounter any behemoth at all.
The only fortunate thing was that both behemoths dropped Divine Items, there was no encounter where they didn’t loot.
"It feels like I’ve almost harvested all the wild behemoths, I wonder if I can gather another Divine Item."
[Starry night showered, the refined copper carriage rested beside the rubble.]
[Do you want to board the carriage and leave the ’Ruins of the Star Dome Tower’?]
Just as Lin Xun was about to click ’yes’, he suddenly felt like he forgot something.
He opened his item bar, where an item lay quietly.
[’Star Dome Key’ (item), a shining pentagram that has been buried under the ruins for many years... Using this item at a specific place will cause a magical event beyond anyone’s imagination.]
This was the item Lin Xun found in the lab after defeating the president of the Multivision Association.
He initially planned to use it right after leaving the lab in the ruins of the ’Star Dome Tower’, but Rona’s farewell distracted him.
"It’s not too late to use it now."
[You took out the ’Star Dome Key’, the pentagram light was exceptionally bright in the night.]
[Maybe it’s your illusion, you felt that the light emitted by ’Star Dome Key’ in the ruins was more intense than before.]
[Do you want to use the ’Star Dome Key’?]
[The sparkling pentagram unleashes blinding starlight, ’Star Dome Key’ dissipates into tiny starlights and disappears.]
[Before your eyes, a towering tower stands not far away, its spire pierces into the mist, making it impossible to judge its height.]
[All the stars seem to be attracted to this towering tower, its body is brightly lit, as if decorated with countless stars.]
[Looking around, the shattered bricks on the ground have disappeared. Everything around you carries a phantom image as if it is a blotched print of an old memory.]
[You’ve entered the ’Remnant of Knowledge Illusion’...]
[The illusion around you is trembling, it seems extremely unstable.]
[You understand, once you’re rejected and ejected from the illusion, the illusion of the Star Tower may dissipate.]
[Do you want to go into the ’Star Dome Tower’ and begin your climb?]
Lin Xun’s eyes widened in shock.
Using the ’Star Dome Key’ atop the ruins activated the Knowledge Illusion, enabling him to enter the once existing Star Dome Tower.
Rona had mentioned that the Star Dome Tower was so high that it could be called reaching the heavens, touching into unknown territories.
Many scholars who climbed the tower were attracted by the starry sky and strayed off course, only then was the towering tower that went straight into the sky knocked over and destroyed.
According to the text display, the illusion of the Star Dome Tower is unstable. As soon as he dies within the illusion, the illusion will not appear again.
"That is to say, I only have one chance to challenge."
[Right as you hesitated before the tower, the tower’s door suddenly opened, and a scholar wearing a wide brimmed hat steps out.]
[You noticed he’s wearing a black robe with a golden trim, with the symbol of the Direct View School printed on his chest.]
[The ’Direct View Association Grand Scholar seeking Knowledge’ also notices you, he raises his wide-rimmed hat, revealing a disappointed face, and bows to you.]
[He cordially greets you, Mr. President of the foreign city, have you come to ascend the tower top and gaze upon the starry sky to gain knowledge?]
[Seeing your slight nod, he continues to tell you how he could only make it to the twenty-fifth floor of the ninety-nine stories to the top before exhausting his stamina.]
[The tower guardians get stronger floor by floor, it’s too difficult to reach the ninety-ninth floor.]
[The ’Direct View Association Grand Scholar seeking Knowledge’ sighs slightly, perhaps it was due to his lack of knowledge or strength that led to such an outcome.]
[Although the Multivision Association grand scholars ascended fewer floors than him, the president of the Multivision Association in this city climbed three more floors than the Direct View Association president, reaching the thirty-ninth floor.]
