Chapter 289 Preparing to Confront the Unborn Deity
Chapter 289 Preparing to Confront the Unborn Deity
Having made all necessary preparations, Jeremy, Ritchie, and the shadows promptly sprang into action.
The shadows coalesced, forming a portal before them.
Behind this portal appeared a myriad of distorted and peculiar realms.
Possessing the talent of The King of Time and Space, Jeremy was acutely aware that the space beyond the portal was extraordinarily unusual.
Jeremy hesitated slightly, although he trusted the shadows as his allies.
He was reluctant to expose Ritchie to potential danger.
With a warm smile, Jeremy addressed them directly.
"Is it truly possible for us to all pass through this portal together?"
"Of course not, this portal can only accommodate one person at a time. Thus, we hope to allow your companion to go through first." the shadows replied in unison.
Upon hearing this, Ritchie's expression became somewhat peculiar.
"Why do you want me to go through first? Is it because you believe my strength is the greatest? Or do you think my skills and talents are better suited for exploring the space on the other side of the portal?"
"Neither! We believe your strength is the weakest, so we would like you to go first to scout ahead. If there are traps set by the White Tower in the space beyond, you can help us assess the situation." The shadows answered with remarkable candor.
Upon hearing this, Ritchie could only manage an awkward smile.
"You are not wrong, indeed, my strength is the weakest. Therefore, it is acceptable for me to test the traps."
Having said this, Ritchie prepared to step through the portal.
However, Jeremy directly grabbed Ritchie by the arm.
"I believe it is exceedingly dangerous to send Ritchie to explore the space on the other side. It would be far better for me to go first. You can follow after I have passed through the portal."
Since Jeremy had expressed his thoughts, the shadows did not voice any objections.
They understood that the success of this mission hinged on Jeremy's capabilities.
Once they received the shadows' consent, Jeremy stepped boldly into the portal.
The moment he entered the portal, Jeremy felt as if he were suspended in a state of overlapping dimensions.
It seemed that no matter which direction he moved in, he would enter a peculiar and bizarre space.
After hesitating for a moment, Jeremy resolutely advanced toward the end of the portal.
Before long, Jeremy found himself on a level within the Tower of Exile.
In this unfamiliar floor, Jeremy discovered that it was filled with a multitude of mirrors.
The instant he beheld the numerous mirrors, Jeremy recalled the Mirror Maze instance.
"Could it be that the power of the Mirror Maze instance is somehow linked to the White Tower? Or is it possible that the creators of the apocalypse game can share the powers they possess?"
Jeremy felt a twinge of confusion.
Yet, there was no one present to provide answers to his questions.
He proceeded to examine each mirror with utmost caution.
After observing for a while, Jeremy heard Ritchie's voice calling from behind.
"How is it going? Have you discovered any traps in this space?"
Turning around, Jeremy was indeed greeted by the sight of Ritchie accompanied by a large number of shadows surrounding him.
"I haven't found any traps here. All I've noticed is the abundance of mirrors. Do you think these mirrors are traps?"
Before Ritchie could respond, the shadows chimed in unison.
"These mirrors are traps, yet they are not traps. If we wish to reach the area where the malevolent deity resides, we must pass through these mirrors. However, the sequence in which we traverse the mirrors must be exceedingly precise.
If we make a mistake in the order, we will be transported to different regions. Therefore, we seek your assistance."
The shadows immediately turned their attention to Jeremy.
While they were unaware of Jeremy's talent as The King of Time and Space, they sensed his remarkable sensitivity to spatial changes.
Jeremy nodded in acknowledgment.
"I am more than willing to offer you my assistance. However, what exactly is your plan? Are you suggesting that we pass through the mirrors one by one, allowing me to observe the spatial changes that occur as you do so?
If that is the case, wouldn't we be wasting an enormous amount of time? If we squander so much time, it will be impossible for us to destroy the White Tower before its emergence."
Jeremy genuinely believed that such an approach was a considerable waste of time.
However, the shadows had a different perspective.
They considered that while this method might not be the fastest, it was certainly not an extravagant expenditure of time.
"We are numerous. Therefore, we can have the shadows pass through each mirror simultaneously. As long as your perception of space is keen, we will be able to swiftly ascertain whether the space behind the mirrors is indeed the correct one.
Moreover, you need not worry that our assistance in the final battle will diminish. Once a single shadow reaches the ultimate battlefield, all shadows can arrive simultaneously.
In essence, we are all the same shadow. Our fates are intertwined, allowing us to disregard the barriers between spaces and rapidly converge."
The shadows' response astonished Jeremy.
Yet after careful consideration, he acknowledged that their reasoning was indeed sound.
With a smile, Jeremy nodded in agreement.
"Very well then, let us proceed according to your plan. However, I must caution you that my sensitivity to spatial perception is not particularly acute. Therefore, during our actions, there may be some potential for errors."
"We must accelerate our pace, so that we can swiftly locate the path leading to the area where the malevolent deity resides."
With the combined efforts of Jeremy and the shadows.
They soon discovered the correct route that led to the domain of the White Tower.
"Gentlemen, I trust that you are all adequately prepared. If there is nothing you wish to express, I will proceed directly into the passage! Once I step into the passage, the final confrontation will commence immediately!
Do you have any last words or important points to raise? If so, speak now!"
Before venturing toward the area of the White Tower, Jeremy took a moment to remind everyone once more.
In Jeremy's view, the impending battle left no room for extended discussions. Therefore, this was their final opportunity to converse.
Ritchie shook his head.
He had nothing to say, believing that his sole responsibility was to follow Jeremy's commands during the forthcoming battle.
The shadows, however, had a few words they wished to convey.
Thus, they appointed a representative to articulate their thoughts comprehensively.
"During the course of the battle, it is highly likely that you two will encounter some illusions. I implore you to remain calm when faced with these apparitions. For these illusions pose no tangible threat to you.
They merely serve to disrupt your mental state. As long as you can withstand the psychological interference, I believe you can secure victory in this confrontation.
Lastly, we wish to emphasize that this battle pertains not only to the future of us all but also to the fate of those giants."
"Although we are not overly familiar with the giants, we have received their assistance in the past. I believe you too wish to save the giants, do you not? So let us strive together!"
After hearing the words of the shadows, both Jeremy and Ritchie nodded emphatically.
Without hesitation, Jeremy stepped into the mirror.
Ritchie and the shadows followed Jeremy into the mirror as well.
Almost simultaneously, in the deepest recesses of the Tower of Exile,
The White Tower, surrounded by a plethora of High-Dimensional Data, suddenly opened one of its eyes.
Although the White Tower had not yet truly come into existence, and its current power was not exceedingly formidable, it could still perceive everything that transpired within the Tower of Exile.
It had already realized that Jeremy and his companions were swiftly approaching its domain.
"It seems that Jeremy is indeed my greatest adversary! I must seize this opportunity to eliminate him once and for all!"

The White Tower muttered fiercely to itself.
As it spoke, torrents of High-Dimensional Data coalesced around it, forming monstrous entities.
All of these creatures were Intelligent Machines, each of which was at least level 50.
The fact that the summoned monsters were only level 50 indicated that the White Tower's current power was not particularly strong.
In the true Tower of Exile, the White Tower would be capable of summoning monsters exceeding level 70—these creatures could be referred to as angels.
However, within the mists of history, neither the angels of the Fool nor the monsters summoned by the yet-to-be-born White Tower could reach level 70.
This was precisely why Jeremy had maintained a strong belief in the possibility of significant success during their endeavors.
Nevertheless, even so, Jeremy and his companions would undoubtedly face immense dangers when confronting the White Tower directly.
Even in its nascent state within the mists of history, the White Tower possessed formidable divine powers. In critical moments, it could even summon genuine support for itself.
