Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 479: Chapter 474: Grand Hunting Grounds

”Let’s go, everyone in.”

Ji Xinghe said solemnly from the front, then walked toward the Tower of Fortune.

Strangely enough,

he instantly vanished in front of everyone as soon as he approached it.

”Transmission?”

Lin You and the others at the back were astonished and cautiously approached the tower.

As they got closer, Lin You felt the heavy aura emanating from the tower even more profoundly.

It was as if at the beginning of creation, that ancient and desolate feeling made one involuntarily solemn.

Moreover, the body of this tower was incredibly enormous.

It practically occupied several kilometers at the center of the wasteland, with a light supporting it underneath.

Standing closer, a sense of oppression hit him in the face, and he couldn’t see the top of the tower, resembling a Heaven-Reaching Tower.

[Would you like to enter the ”Tower of Fortune”?]

At that moment, a prompt sounded.

Lin You hesitated for a moment and chose ”Yes.”

In the next second,

the scene before him distorted, and a dazzling light appeared, prompting him to instinctively raise his hand to shield his eyes.

When he steadied himself again, a series of prompts suddenly sounded in his ears.

[Respected Lord, you have successfully entered the first floor of the Tower of Fortune.]

[The Tower of Fortune has a total of thirteen floors, each with different opponents and challenges.]

[Pass the challenge to move directly to the next floor.]

[Failing a challenge or being defeated won’t result in death but will result in a forced transmission out of the tower.]

[Each person can participate in the challenge once a day, with rewards based on the final floor reached.]

...

Each floor has different challenges?

Upon hearing the prompts, Lin You couldn’t help looking around and found himself in a vast undulating desert.

At the edge of the desert, he could vaguely see giant trees rising from the ground, seemingly forming a forest.

In another direction, there were towering peaks, shrouded in mist.

In short, the environment was very bizarre.

Moreover, what surprised Lin You was that the space inside the tower was countless times larger than what it seemed outside, as if it was a space of its own.

Before he could think more about it, another prompt echoed in his mind.

[Attention, Tower of Fortune’s first-floor challenge, Lord’s Hunting Ground, is open.]

[Here, you will encounter all Lords of the same level.]

[Defeat twenty enemies to move on to the next floor challenge, with no time limit.]

Defeat twenty enemies to reach the next floor?

Lin You was shocked; if the first-floor challenge was this difficult, what about the floors ahead?

Perhaps he would have to single-handedly face a Tier Ten Demon.

What he didn’t expect was that inside the tower, he couldn’t summon Species and had to rely solely on the Lord’s personal power to fight.

This first floor is simply a chaotic battle between Lords from all worlds.

And it seemed like all Tier Nine Lords had been transmitted into this space, so he needed to hide quickly.

Thinking of this,

Lin You immediately took action, wearing the Tier Nine Ice Soul Great Saber on his waist and moving toward the forest area at the desert’s edge.

In an environment like the desert, there were very few places to hide, making it easy for him to be exposed.

The worst part was that the environment was extremely hot.

His feet on the burning sand felt like being stir-fried squid, sizzling with a crackling sound.

If his physique hadn’t surpassed that of a normal person after reaching Tier Nine, he wouldn’t have lasted long.

”Whoosh!”

At this moment, a sound of something breaking through the air was heard.

From the nearby sand dune, a sleeve sword suddenly shot out, aiming directly at his vital point.

Quick-eyed and quick-handed, Lin You drew out the Ice Soul Great Saber to block in front of him.

”Clang!”

With a loud clash, Lin You was pushed back two steps, and the saber in his hand hummed with a resonant sound.

The opponent was strong!

He narrowed his eyes, looking toward the direction from which the sleeve sword had been fired.

Almost as if aware that the strike wouldn’t work, the sleeve sword had barely hit the ground when the sand dune exploded.

A slim figure wielding a dagger, transformed into an arrow, rushed towards him with incredible speed, clearly not a simple individual.

Lin You was about to retaliate but suddenly paused.

Because he realized he couldn’t see the opponent’s face clearly.

It was as if an invisible force enveloped the opponent, blocking his sight, leaving only their attire to tell if they were male or female.

Could it be the tower’s anti-cheating mechanism?

Without giving him more time to think, the dagger glinting with cold light aimed directly at his heart, forcing him to sidestep.

Simultaneously, the Ice Soul Great Saber fiercely swung upward, sending a burst of chilling cold air.

”Clang!”

Another clash sounded, and the impact waves raised a whirlwind of sand and wind at their feet.

Without using the Power of Rule, Lin You was pushed back.

The opponent leveraged agile body technique, spun in the air, bent down, and landed, with both feet sinking deep into the sand.

Feeling the tremor in his dagger and the numbness reaching his tiger’s mouth, he ceased his attack.

Instead, he slowly stood straight, gazing solemnly at Lin You.

”You’re strong.”

The voice sounded very experienced.

”So are you.”

Lin You regarded him with interest, then asked, ”I have a question for you. Can you see what I look like?”

”I can’t.”

The other’s words were very concise.

Lin You heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

If he couldn’t see his appearance, doesn’t that mean he can freely use the Power of Rule, and no one would know it’s him?

Originally unable to summon Species made him feel weaker, but if he could use the Power of Rule, the result would be different.

He now has a total of four Divine Fragments.

With a 40% Attribute boost, his basic strength is already comparable to those old Tier Nine Lords.

If he then uses the Four-leaf Clover Protection skill, which boosts All Attributes by 30%, along with the burst from Barbaric Roar, it would definitely make him stand out among the Ten Thousand Realms Lords.

Most importantly, he can use many long-range attack methods and Healing Skills without worrying about being seen.

”We each go our separate ways, how about it?”

The youth didn’t know what Lin You was thinking, and said cautiously.

”Okay.” Lin You nodded silently.

The challenge had just begun, and there were many things he hadn’t figured out, so he wasn’t in a hurry to act.

Besides, the other’s strength wasn’t weak, so it might not be easy to kill him, thus abandoning this plan.

After all, the Power of Rule is limited, and recovery takes time, so it’s best not to waste it.

With a cautious mutual glance, the two gradually distanced themselves and headed in different directions.

Thus, they continued forward through the desert.

Finally, after more than ten minutes, Lin You arrived at a desert oasis.

Just as he was about to observe the surroundings, shouts and the sounds of weapons clashing suddenly came from within the oasis.

Someone’s fighting?

Lin You’s face became serious, and he immediately restrained his aura, moving closer to the source of the sound.

Soon.

A large group engaged in melee came into view.

The number was as many as over twenty, clearly all drawn to this iconic oasis landscape.

”Die!”

One of the big bare-chested men shouted, and the Heavy Sword in his hand directly pierced through another Lord’s body.

Then Lin You saw that the Lord didn’t die immediately but was enveloped by a surge of Energy and suddenly disappeared from the scene.

Sure enough, just like the hints said, killing doesn’t cause death but forces one to teleport away from here.

No wonder these people are fighting so fiercely.

Without the fear of consequences, the Tier Nine Lords fighting with all their might are no easy targets, and one wrong move could lead to defeat.

As soon as Lin You appeared, he was immediately targeted by two Lords, flanking him from left and right.

”Another one here to die, let’s take care of him first!”

With a loud shout, their feet boomed as they turned into afterimages charging at him.

Although Lin You couldn’t see their specifics, he could imagine their ferocious expressions.

His expression sank, the Four-leaf Clover Protection activated, and his whole aura suddenly surged.

As soon as the two approached, the Ice Soul Great Saber in his hand suddenly slashed out, tearing through the air and aiming directly at one person’s abdomen.

That person was clearly not a novice, sensing the powerful force contained in the Ice Soul Great Saber, he first gasped, then immediately positioned the Shield strapped to his hand in front of him.

”Clang!”

The piercing collision sound erupted from the center.

The terrifying force turned into shock waves that swept around, causing the Plants nearby to sway.

The other person took advantage of this, wielding a Long Sword, slashing out a fierce Sword Qi straight for Lin You’s face.

A weapon carrying Sword Qi attacks?

Lin You’s expression slightly changed, his body leaned forward and dropped down, dodging the Sword Qi.

Then he supported himself with one hand on the ground, flipped to the side to distance himself from the two.

”It’s useless, you can’t escape.”

These two had clearly reached an understanding, refraining from attacking each other and instead raised their weapons to charge him swiftly again.

Two swishing swords, another two streaks of Sword Qi emerged, blocking off Lin You’s escape path.

The other person wielding Knife and Shield directly charged at him with a thrust.

The unrestrained appearance made it clear they intended to take him down.

Since this was the case, he had no reason to hold back.

With a wave of his hand, the ground cracked open, and a large number of Vines emerged from underground, swiftly blocking the two men’s attacks.

”What?!”

The two, who thought victory was assured, both changed expressions.

Before they could react, the ground underfoot simultaneously collapsed, and Vines swiftly entwined their feet.

Rip!

The Sword Lord reacted quickly, slicing the Vines with Sword Qi to evade to the side.

But the Lord wielding the Shield, which was a heavy piece of equipment, hesitated momentarily and was entangled by the Vines.

Just as he wanted to break free from the confinement, Lin You quietly teleported behind him, the Ice Soul Great Saber in hand poised to strike.

”Thunk!”

The sound of flesh being pierced rang out.

The Lord’s eyes widened, staring incredulously at the ice-blue tip of the saber piercing through his chest.

The next second.

He was immediately teleported away from the tower, losing his eligibility for the challenge.

”Power of Rule! How can you use the Power of Rule?!”

The remaining Sword Lord was shocked, quickly pulling away from Lin You.

His exclamation attracted the attention of other Lords nearby, who happened to see the Vines rising in front of Lin You, and Leaves floating above him.

Whizz-whizz-whizz—

The sound of breaking air resounded, and those Leaves transformed into arrows, shooting straight at the fleeing Sword Lord.

Just as he was about to dodge, he suddenly suffered a heavy blow to the head, trapped in brief mental blankness.

”Thunk!”

Again came the sound of flesh being torn open.

A burst of blood erupted from the Sword Lord’s throat.

The whole person was instantly teleported outside.
