Chapter 1037
A bed in the middle of nowhere with two people sleeping on it. A man stood next to the bed, watching the siblings from the side. The light snore came from the boy, falling asleep soundly even though he slept in the middle of nowhere, an open area. The fact that the siblings could sleep just showed their trust in Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang scratched his head. "What should I do now?" He had free time the whole night. Sitting at the edge of the bed, he opened the status and checked the other stuff.
[Authority 0 (57/1000)]
"Huh!?" He discovered Authority's points increased from zero to fifty-seven. It came out of nowhere because he did not remember killing the natives on the eleventh floor. In order to increase the Authority's level, the factions needed to kill the natives or kill the other players or complete the quest. He was certain that he did not kill the natives and players, let alone take a quest. "Wait, does the beast count as the native?"
Avyn killed a lot of beasts to relieve the dragon tribe's boredom. That was the only explanation for why his Authority was at fifty-seven points.
"There's only one way to confirm that." Tang Shaoyang summoned Maldros, the Black Storm Dragonewt. "Hunt one beast for me and return!" He would find out whether the beast counted as the natives or not soon.
The dragonewt bowed his head and flew to a giant tree. The Grade S+ Spirit searched for his prey by jumping from one tree to another tree. Meanwhile, Tang Shaoyang kept his eyes on the screen in front of him. If the point increased by one, then it confirmed that the beast counted as the native. If that was the case, then it would be easier to increase the Authority level than he thought.
In a few minutes, he noticed the number had changed from fifty-seven to fifty-eight. Even though Maldros had not returned yet, he confirmed that the beasts counted as the native of the tower. He smiled at the new information he had discovered.
'I don't need to worry about the quest or killing people. We can just hunt the beast to raise the level.' Not long after the Authority point changed, Maldros returned. "I have hunted the beast, Your Majesty."
The Black Storm Dragonewt brought back the dead body of the Burning Urside and put the dead body in front of Tang Shaoyang.
"Then go hunt more for me and return in five hours." Tang Shaoyang gave a new order to Maldros. "Don't forget to bring back the bodies." The beast and monster on the eleventh floor were quite high-leveled. They were good materials for summoning.
The Grade S+ Spirit did not question the order. He bowed his head and turned around to hunt more beasts. After Maldros left, he continued to summon more spirits. This time he summoned the septuplets troll, the same Grade S+ Spirit and gave them the same order.
After the septuplets troll, then he summoned the quadruplets cyclops and gave the same orders. He summoned most of his Grade S+ Spirits and ordered them to hunt the beasts.
A few minutes after his spirits left, the Authority point increased steadily. It reached a hundred after a few minutes. At the same time, the spirits returned with more dead bodies. Of course, he told them to put the dead bodies a bit far from the bed. He did not want the smell to affect the siblings.
Another ten minutes passed, and the Authority point was at two hundred points. "This is far easier than I thought. We will get to level 1 Authority in eighty minutes if they can keep the pace." Getting the Authority to level 1 made him excited. He wanted to know what he could get from level 1 Authority.
It did not take the spirits eighty minutes to hunt the thousandth beast but sixty minutes. Tang Shaoyang saw his authority leveled up to level 1 authority. Different from his level, there was no notification from the system that the authority had reached level 1.
[Authority 1 (0/10.000)]
"Ten thousand for level 2 Authority?" Tang Shaoyang was not expecting that number. He thought it would be two thousand or three thousand at most for the next level. The tenth time point for the next level was quite absurd.
[Don't forget that the Authority level will remain at the same level even if you climb up to the twelfth floor. You can take your time to increase your Authority while you climb up.] Avyn spoke in Tang Shaoyang's head.
"Is that so? I thought there would be a new thing on the twelfth floor." Tang Shaoyang thought the floor would work the same as the first tenth floor. He needed to fight the boss and then gain access to the next floor. It was the same mechanic, so he thought he would encounter the new twenty-four worlds on the next floor.
[It seems you misunderstood how the tower worked. You are racing with the other twenty-four worlds to climb the tower. You are fighting against the same twenty-four worlds on the twelfth floor and above.] Avyn gave a further explanation.
Then Tang Shaoyang realized that he had a spirit with more knowledge than himself about the system or the game. Avyn inherited her ancestor's memories, so she should know more about the tower.
"You have the knowledge of the tower, but why do you only tell me now?" He could not help but question the dragon tribe. Avyn was special even for a spirit. She was not an individual who was dead, but a living being that got isolated because her worlds were cut to the others. The system gave her a chance to move between worlds by becoming a spirit in a name.
[The System is not stupid as you think. It put a restriction on me, though the restriction is more loose compared to the other spirits of yours; I can't tell you about future events. I can speak more about the tower because you are in the tower now. And I can only tell you this just because we are on the eleventh floor now, or else I can't tell you anything about the tower.]
"Then do you have more things to tell me about the eleventh floor?"
[Not much. Again, the system will not allow me to give you the crucial information for the Dimensional Tower. However, I have some advice for you. Instead of killing the people, you should take them to your side instead. Expand your force with the natives and use them to fight the other factions!]
That was a good idea, but there was an issue with that. "I don't think the beast will listen to me, and the people here are weak. You have seen them." Tang Shaoyang shook his head. "What I need is a force that is ready to fight. I don't think I want to waste my time training these people."
[I don't know you are this stupid. You have a Legendary Rank beast in your hand, Kirin. And you have me, the God Rank Dragon. They may not listen to you, but I can make them listen to me, or Kirin can do that. Beasts are not different from humans. They will listen and follow the stronger beast, just like you humans.]
Tang Shaoyang's eyes shone when he heard that. He, indeed, never thought of using Avyn or Kalliyan to subdue the wild beast. This method would work not just in the tower but also on Earth. There are a lot of mutated beasts after the game, and if he could subdue them using Kalliyan, then it would be just a matter of time before his force expanded to the biggest force on Earth. By that time, he did not worry about the other factions rivaling his faction in numbers.
[Focus up! Our focus is the dimensional tower. While I advise you to subdue the beast, but not the beast on this floor. Your target should be finding the boss of the eleventh floor and climbing to the twelfth tower. The beasts on the twelfth floor should be stronger than the ones here. After taking over the Wolf Mine and the Poisonous Valley, your focus is to find the boss! You can give the remaining resources on the eleventh floor to the other factions. Let them fight each other.]
"That's actually a brilliant idea." Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice. "If you are saying that I should focus on the boss, does that mean I can defeat the boss with my current strength?"
[What are you talking about? Have you become dumber? Of course, you have enough power to defeat the boss. You have me, and that's enough to beat the boss. In fact, you are the strongest individual on this floor.]
Tang Shaoyang was caught off guard by Kankara'Xeo's arrogance, but then he could not deny the fact that Avyn was indeed strong, even stronger than himself. He could only let out a chuckle when he heard that. "This will be easier than I thought. But what if the other factions bring their Demi-God Rank or God Rank into this tower? I think the Federation of Allurion or the Divine Church should have someone at that rank, no?"
[That's indeed an issue if this is Heaven and Hell Rank Dimensional Tower. However, you don't need to worry about that since this is a Sky Level Dimensional Tower. Demi-God and God Rank can't enter Ancient Rank Tower and lower.]
Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow. "You never told me about this?"
[That's because you never ask.]
