Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 100: The Barrier

It had been almost four days. The priests of the Church of the Night continued to guard the borders of the empire well. The weakening of the Church seemed to have alerted the other kingdoms, it was like a chance for them to attack the empire.

That's why the sacred item [Tear of the Goddess] was filled with blessing magic only by Datura and Aether, the heads of the church.

The Asgard Guild had already begun to protect the borders of the empire. There was talk of a not-so-hot war.

"Do we know when the holy item will be ready?" Ariel suddenly asked, to which Ahil replied, "It's almost ready, madam, we just need half an hour."

Ariel and the others were now within the boundaries of the Frozen Mountain, and thanks to a few sacred treasures they had taken from the church, a huge barrier had been erected inside the huge camp.

The distance between the camp and the Frozen Mountain was almost 45 minutes, there were little camps at the final point, and the camp was busy fighting against the ice monsters that were coming towards them from the mountain, Ahil said that there was only half an hour left to make the raid on the mountain and prevent any monsters from forming.

Even the Emperor himself had joined the camp in this endeavour.

[Everything seems to be ready, you will be able to cover the mountain in a short time.]

Ariel suddenly looked at the message Moros had sent her and then nodded her head and said, "We're going to do it, that's for sure, but I have a bad feeling, something is watching us, something alive, I just learnt the concept of Fallen God and I can't help but be afraid."

When Ariel uttered these words, the people in Olympus agreed with all these words. Fallen Gods were the names given to the gods who died in the game of the gods. These gods were those who had passed the 100th floor and had not managed to ascend further and usually died frighteningly.

Who they were, what gender they were, and what community they belonged to was meaningless, whether they were the children of creators of other universes or the children of Chaos itself, each of them could die and become a Fallen God.

The strange being James had encountered on the 9th Floor was a Fallen God. It was one of Nyx's enemies in the tower, which is why Erebus and several other gods and goddesses had killed it on the 9th floor.

He was the child of another creator, but he was a fool.

He thought he could go around harassing and killing whoever he wanted, and he saw himself as Chaos. When this bastard's eyes turned to Nyx, his head was stepped on like an ant, and if he had been spotted earlier, his death would have been much easier, it was Nyx's and Erebus' fault, and there were great losses until the culprit was caught.

After these events, the Church of the Night was founded, and the person who founded this church, which had been going on for millions of years, was so powerful that he had conquered the entire 5th floor, and under the name of Nyx, he had taken every resting floor from the 5th floor to the 75th floor under his command. That's why there were abandoned churches on the other floors.

Unfortunately, most of the church's power had disappeared into the dusty pages of history. If the Church had its former power, that is, the power of its first generations, some of them could even challenge the gods who had passed the 100th floor.

The Church of the Night was such a gigantic organisation and power centre that even in its current state they have a say over the entire 5th floor.

[You need to calm down, James is only a short time away from returning, I am sure he will return stronger than before, he is training with Chronos himself].

When Moros sent this message, Ariel's expression brightened considerably.

"The Time Titan? I'm a big fan, I still can't believe he lost to an arsehole like Zeus, mythology is a funny thing." Ariel suddenly asked if she could have seen Zeus' expression, and the ancient god blushed, he even started to think that no one in the world James and Ariel came from liking him.

[I don't think it's necessary to be so hard on Zeus...]

"I mean, I don't really care, but you can't expect me to like someone who walks up to every woman in sight, and even if it was the other way round, I still wouldn't like that person," Ariel said abruptly, yawning as she left the tent she was in.

Ariel had left Olympus in a state of shock, but she had work to do, and showing interest in Moros would only slow things down.

"Theseus!" Ariel suddenly shouted, waving to Theseus, who was a few dozen metres away, indicating that they needed to talk.

Theseus was soon at Ariel's side and looking at her with curious eyes.

"The Tear of the Goddess is almost complete, get ready to move, get everyone on board and remember we are going to disperse to 8 magic points, what is the situation in the other camps?" Ariel asked.

"The other camps are ready, we have managed to completely seal off the mountain, and even though the black magic has surrounded the camps, the 8 people to whom we will give the blessing energy from the Tear of the Goddess are scattered around the camps. We only have to wait for Lady Datura and Sir Aether," Theseus replied, looking very hopeful.

Still, Ariel felt that everything had to be perfect. When James suddenly disappeared and went to Mount Olympus, everything had fallen under Ariel's responsibility.

With the rank of First Commander of the Chaos Guild, Ariel had the power to command the Church of Night, the Olympus Guild, and the Asgard Guild.

Currently, from the 5th floor to the 75th floor, there was no woman more powerful than her.

"Check everything again, Perseus is controlling the 4 camps on the other side of the mountain, I know you have already checked this place, so go to the other three camps and take a look, nothing can go wrong, Theseus, don't forget," Ariel said the seriousness on her face reminded Theseus of his father Poseidon.

Suddenly Theseus shook his head and left the camp with a sacred item to fulfil his mission successfully. "Everything has to be perfect, we have to protect the Church of Night and the empire," Ariel suddenly said, not realising how much those words had touched Nyx.
