Alongside Jasmine, Konrad returned to the outside world.
"Oh, I'd almost forgotten. The holy consort wanted me to give you this."
Jasmine slapped her forehead and pulled out an ordinary looking scroll which she extended toward Konrad. Perplexed, Konrad took it into his hands, and unfolded it, revealing a map like figure highlighting many points in an unknown location.
The map seemed divided into three layers, each with its areas of focus.
"What is this?"
"According to her, this is a map of the first three levels of the Tower of Rebirth. She also said this was your ticket to supremacy and what you should prepare yourself for."
"My ticket to supremacy?"
Konrad had no knowledge of what that "Tower of Rebirth" represented. Therefore, he browsed through the knowledge of his Semi-Saint maids seeking answers through them.
"The Tower of Rebirth. A place where fishes can become dragons and peasants become kings. Jointly controlled by the Celestial Church and the Infernal Cult, it's said to be a joint construction of their founders and house innumerable treasures. The leaders of the two factions are also buried there.
In times of peace, it is used as a battlefield between their younger generation. Those beneath the Transcendent Rank and above the Semi-Holy Rank cannot enter, and while it welcomes everyone, not many dare meddle in that clash between the world's strongest factions."
Konrad was unimpressed. At best, the founders of the Celestial Church and Infernal Cult were Divine Rank experts. That being the case, the legacies they left behind, couldn't surpa.s.s the Divine Rank.
As long as his exp count was sufficient, the system could provide him with countless resources in that level. Why then would he risk himself within an unknown location, sandwiched between the experts of the two most dreadful forces of this world?
Else had no knowledge of his system. Therefore, recommending a trip over there wasn't surprising.
But as far as he was concerned, it was stupidity.
Moreover…
"Time within the Tower of Rebirth flows twenty times faster than in the outside world. Additionally, it is riddled with frequent time storms capable of shredding decades or centuries of lifespan of those caught within.
The two founders each left various traps aimed at the enemy. As soon as one steps inside, the tower a.s.sesses your heart and cla.s.sifies you based on beliefs. Those who have faith in the Five Divine Lords of the Celestial Church are targeted by the Infernal Cult founders' traps whereas those who have faith in the Infernal Cult's Four Kings are targeted by the Celestial Church founders' traps.
