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

Chapter 43: New Grade

3 necromancers seemed to be digging a few graves, it was obvious that the whippersnappers were shapeshifters, which meant that James would at least be able to kill a few monsters while managing to hide under the moonlight.

James gripped Selene's Throwing Knife tightly and then activated the ability, saying "Pierce!" With incredible speed, the knife stabbed into the neck of one of the necromancers and pierced his neck and entered the ground on the ground.

Seeing this, the other necromancers and shapeshifters suddenly started to look around to find out what was happening, but they could not see anything.

After that, dozens of human-looking monsters suddenly emerged from the mansion. James could see the true image of each one of them and his stomach was rising enormously, he was about to vomit.

He waited until no one else came out; when that happened, it was time to start.

Nevertheless, James knew that this was the time to act. He acted immediately and used all the abilities he could to accelerate. On top of that, using the Void Ring, he appeared in front of the crowd, reaching a speed factor that could indeed be considered gigantic even on this floor.

To the amazement of all the monsters, he took out Hypnos' Bell from his inventory and then shouted:

"RUN!!!"

James paused for a few seconds after he had shouted and realised that nothing had happened, the monsters in the area had attacked as soon as they realised this and at that moment James saw another small system window to the right of his eye:

[4 seconds to activation].

"COME ON YOU NOW!" shouted James as dozens of shapeshifters swooped down on him.

James managed to dodge a few of the attacks but it was then that he realised a claw was digging into his arm, even though he was about to scream in pain he grabbed Clarent tightly and slashed the shapeshifter's throat.

[Item Activated.]

When James saw the window that had suddenly formed in front of him, he suddenly saw the entire place fall to the ground.

[You resisted the sleep spell.]

When he read the window, he fell to his knees and then took out a low-level health potion from his inventory and planted it on his head.

His arm healed in a short time and he stood in the field as the only one left standing.

He began to move around quickly, killing Clarent the shapeshifter and the remaining necromancers one by one.

This took a very short time, and when James was done killing, he looked around and realised that the floor-cleaning window was not in front of him.

"What's going on?" he muttered.

[I have no idea, there should only be shapeshifters and necromancers on this floor, I don't know what's going on, be careful James].

James suddenly saw the window that had formed in front of him and then realised that the ground was shaking. Suddenly he started running backwards and saw the ground start to split open. The handcuffed people were being pulled into the hole by something and James realised that something was approaching him at great speed.

He grabbed Clarent tightly and swung the sword towards where the strange sensation was coming from.

"CHING!!!"

The sound of a huge metal clash echoed in James' ears, and it was impossible to describe how much pain and ringing his ears felt.

The strange thing was that none of the lower or higher gods could see what James was fighting against.

On James' side, everything was becoming clear. With his eyes wide open, James was preparing to meet the attacks of what he saw in front of him.

[JAMES WHAT DO YOU SEE? WHAT'S GOING ON? WE'RE BEING CUT OFF!]

What stood before James was a strange black-and-white substance. He didn't know exactly what it was, but he knew that it looked like a person.

At that moment, a window opened in front of him, glowing with a crystalline light:

[Creator Grade Achievement Won!

You have earned a grade achievement that only a handful of people have earned since the creation of the tower.

Encounter a creator-grade monster for the first time.

You get to choose 2 cards].

James looked at the notification in front of him and seemed to understand why Nyx's image started to cut out, the monster in front of him seemed to be from a race of equal power to Nyx.

"MY LADY I NEED HELP!" James suddenly shouted, the fear coursing through his body was palpable, and he was shaking. Even the ability he had gained earlier, which had given him courage, could not help him.

It was as if every second was a step closer to death.

"Are you the one I'm supposed to kill? I know you, Nyx."

James took a few steps back with these words he suddenly heard and tried to understand what was going on.

"I'm living pieces of the past...the dead ones. So Master Erebus and the others weren't just here to kill shapeshifters...."

As he uttered these words, a portal opened next to James. A woman in crystal armour emerged from it. Black patterns on her armour. Silver-coloured eyes and hair. The woman next to him looked like someone Chaos had created with his own hands, her beauty was immense.

Just by looking at her, James could feel the fear in his heart disappear.

"Just stay away, this will be easy anyway."

When she said these words in a rude tone, as if she was giving orders, James stood up and walked as far away as he could.

The woman looked around and couldn't find the person who had attacked James, but at that very moment she heard James' voice:

"IN FRONT OF YOU!!!"

As James shouted as loudly as he could, the woman raised the black crystal sword in her hand and suddenly swung it.

"RUAGGHH!!!"

A shout, raised in pain, rang in the ears of both the woman and James.

She was seeing blood pouring out of an unseen person, so she couldn't quite understand what was going on.

[Can you see what's happening?]

James suddenly appeared in front of her, read this message and then said, "Yes, I can see, my lady."

The woman, who had somehow managed to hear this, suddenly turned her head and said, "Then tell me."

The battle began to move in an unexpected direction.
