Rise of the White Dragon Chapter 228

Both monsters in the sky and in the sea tried to approach the Big Island, but they felt a strong fear of approaching, and those who were most daring were crushed by gravity and turned into ground meat.

In those fifteen days fighting monsters, being forced to the maximum, Elias and the Elite Squad had managed to enter the Second Order. Of course, Luan's mother, Cristina, and Catharina were also close to the Third Order with the guidance and pills provided by Luan.

Ingrid was about to complete the Refine the Body Stage. The stage went from 1 to 12, she was currently at 11.

"Human are such fools. First, they get all in a tizzy because of monsters, and when they manage to more or less stabilize things, they fight each other over resources." Catharina wrinkled her nose.

"I haven't let you guys experience the tower yet, so you don't know how important it is," Luan explained, "The first time you take the test is the most important, so I want you to be strong before taking the test. The further you go, the better the rewards."

"Is that why you didn't go?" Catharina asked.

"Yes, but I'm about to go. When I go, I'll enter in order to connect and clean my meridian veins, and when I get back, I plan to be in the Fourth Order," Luan said with a blinding look in his eyes.

Luan had a goal - to be the strongest in the world. At least for the time being there was still no one in the Fourth Order. If he succeeded in this, he would be able to live more peacefully because he would have the strength to always protect the ones he loved.

Nice words like "I'll protect you" anyone can say, but actually being able to keep such a promise takes strength, especially recently. Unlike humans, monsters evolved quickly. They devoured each other and evolved that way. Humans could use the towers to evolve, but they had to have talent as well as willpower.

"Is it that good?" Catharina was curious.

"Yes, you can evolve the Origin you have, and also increase the power while doing the test and the longer you endure the test the greater the benefits. You can even get an old bloodline, however, this is something rare," Luan explained.

"So it's no wonder that all of the countries went to war over these towers. With something this good, of course, they would want to monopolize it," Catharina said.

"Funny that they're afraid you'll join the fight for the towers, but little do they know you've had one from the start," Ingrid laughed.

"Yes, even if we got another tower, it wouldn't be an advantage. The only advantage of the tower is being able to go and exchange items with it, and participate in the tests," Luan explained, "If there are a lot of people waiting to enter the tower, of course, it becomes a problem, and there are only a certain number of people who can enter at a time, which has made it one of the most profitable means that exists today," Luan explained.

"In short, it's the hen that lays golden eggs, and whoever catches that hen gets rich. In other words, their country becomes rich," Catharina said.

"Yes, more or less that," Luan nodded.

"But Luan, if you don't join the fight for the towers, won't they get suspicious?" Ingrid asked worriedly.

"They could, but what of it? Will they come here? Ha, did you forget that I can kill them easily? Even if they know I have one, they can't mess with me. And I intend to cross into the Fourth Order soon, and whoever provokes me, I will kill. It's that simple," Luan said indifferently.

"But I still haven't explained how it works. Listen well. I'll only say it once," Luan began, "The tower has 100 floors. However, it pays out every five. In other words, every fifth floor has a door. If you manage to get to the 10th floor, for example, you will be able to enter the 10th floor door and fight the monsters from within the tenth floor and gain items with it and exchange them in the tower. And it has the advantage that if you die in the tower, you don't really die. However, there is a penalty: if you die inside the tower, you can't go back into the tower for 1 month."

Everyone paid close attention as Luan explaine, "The reason I don't let you enter the tower is primarily that you are too weak, but the biggest reason is that the towers are connected, that is, by the time you reach floor 10 and enter the room, you will meet other people who have entered the other towers as well and then they will find out about the tower that exists here on this island. As I said, I'm not afraid, but better safe than sorry. I want to get to the Fourth Order first. Then it won't be a problem to let you guys start testing in the tower."

"Only humans can enter the towers?" Maira asked.

"No, those of intelligent races like giants, nymphs, elves, vampires, etc. can also go in," Luan replied.

"So shouldn't we be careful with other races wanting to kill us to drive us out of the towers and make us have to wait a whole month to be able to come back?" Maira asked.

"Smart! That's another reason you need to be strong and go in together. If you're in a group, you can defend against them. Not all races get along. There are many who hate humans and are careless, and they will be killed and thrown out of the tower," Luan explained.

"This changes everything. So, not only do you have to worry about monsters but also other races. If you trust another race and end up being betrayed, you end up losing one month of tower training, which is equivalent to losing a lot of resources." Maira deduced everything very quickly.

"Now do you understand the importance of strengthening yourselves, and why I am focusing so that everyone has the same power? It is for you to climb the same floors and help each other survive in the towers. I bet that over time, they'll start creating Clans inside the towers for that very reason, to prevent people from getting killed when they're alone. Ingrid and I will also go to floors far beyond the 10th or 20th floor. That's why we can't stay behind and help. After all, as I said, the higher the floor, the better the prizes. That's why I also advise you to think carefully before deciding to enter the tower. Well, you can stay here and strengthen yourselves first," Luan warned.

"I think everyone had better get to the Second Order first," Elias spoke. Some of them only managed with the body or with the Qi. If they could do it with both of them, their chances of survival would be greatly increased.

"At this point, I agree with Elias. You need to think about what's best for you." Catharina smiled.

"I'll go with you, Luan," Ingrid said.

"I might end up leaving you behind," Luan said.

"I know, but I'll try. Even if I do not reach the same floor as you, I will try my best if I know that you are going to face the higher floors," Ingrid said.

"Well, do what you want." Luan kissed her lips. He was happy with her determination.

Of course, he wasn't one to be pessimistic, but he knew there was a gap between his strength and hers. After all, the technique he practiced was better than hers. Even though he was at the same cultivation stage, he was superior. However, he did not discourage her. Even if she didn't reach the same floor, if she got above floor 30, it would already be a great feat.
