Chapter 215: Floor-31

"I understand," Whittaker replied. He knew the value of money and understood the reason why Sem was being greedy.

"So that was the reason. You should have said so sooner." Neko cheered up as she heard his words, and forgave Sem.

"By the way, why are you in need of so many floor skip crystals?" Sem asked Whittaker.

"I want to reach floor 31 by the end of today." Whittaker explained his reason to Sem and continued by saying, "I'll be going to kill the boss of this floor. Are you interested in joining me on the hunt?"

Whittaker had enough Floor Skip Crystal to reach Floor 31st if he's at floor 11. He needed to kill the boss of the tenth floor so that he can enter the eleventh floor. For that, he decided it would be better and faster if Sem and Neko join him and help him kill the boss.

"Sure, we'll come along with you," Neko said before Sem could say anything. She also gave Sem a look that shouted: "Don't you dare disagree or else"

Sem complied with his Porter's wishes and chose to help Whittaker.

The boss of the tenth floor is at the depth of the Grand Canyon. The depth of the tenth floor is beyond the Rocky mountains. Whittaker and the ground started walking there.

"Hey, here's the loot from the contestant killers you killed at the base of the rocky mountain!' Along the way, they also met up with Whittaker's doppelganger whose appearance surprised Sem and Neko but only for a while.

'He has a doppelganger... The Doppelganger is a Bloodline skill solely belonging to the Imperial Shadow Family.' Sem and Neko thought while looking at Whittaker who happily accepted the Hunters ring from his doppelganger.

They believed that Life Taker was a pure descendent of the Shadow Family!

"Thanks for the help. You can return in my shadow." Whittaker said to his doppelganger.

"I'll do as you say." The doppelganger was tired. Besides, it has nothing else to do. So it entered Whittaker's Shadow.

With a thought, Whittaker could resummon the Doppelganger from his shadow to fight or do a task for him free of cost. It only costed some battle energy to maintain it and Whittaker was willing to pay that price.

Then they restarted their journey to the boss of the Tenth Floor.

"Eh, I am still in the Monster tower. Boss Chaim, you're also here, Alex too!" Jim Jones exclaimed when he found himself near the respawn statue located on the first floor of the Monster Tower.

"Why are we here?" Alex and the group muttered.

This situation was too wrong. Normally, when a contestant dies, he'll instantly log out from the Monster Tower, and can not enter the Monter Tower for 3 days. Furthermore, the Monster Tower only had one respawn statue. It's located on the Main City of the first floor. Thus, anyone who dies respawns on the first floor.

"Spike them to death, until their rank permanently drops by 1!" A guard shouted.

An entire squad of City Guards encircled the members of the Blood Oracle Guild. All of them were Elites at the rank of A and B.

Hearing the Captain Guard's words, Alex and the group realized what is happening. The Spirit of the Tower was personally taking an action against them, to punish them severely.

The guards rushed at them intending to kill them. The Blood Oracle Guild members stood up to fight them but the City guards were too powerful.

Boom! Bam! Bam!

The damage they dished out was relatively high. A special attack, coupled with a normal attack, had quickly reaped their life. Furthermore, it was Two Guards vs One member of the Blood Oracle Guild. They stood no chance and were wiped out pretty quickly.

Guards were the protectors of the City. Their duty was to protect the city and its civilians. They resist the invasion of Magical beasts and other races. Plus, they also follow the God (Jafar) orders. At this moment, Jafar had set a rule to harshly punish Contestant killers. Each contestant's killers who were unlucky enough to die in the tower will forcefully respawn near the respawn statue and.killed until their rank drops by 1. The guards would naturally obey Jafar's will. They didn't let go of the Blood Oracle member, killing them until the C-rank member drops to D-rank and the D-rank member drop to E-rank!

On the surface, the new rules set by Jafar seemed harsh. In reality, however, Monster tower was a place where contestant hunts magical beast, and invade other worlds after they reach C-rank and above. The contestant killing was an act of defiance. It was against the natural laws of the Monster Tower.

Hence, the "Rule" itself allowed Jafar to set and implement this new Rule.

Passing through the Rocky mountain, Whittaker and the group arrived at the depths of the Grand Canyon. As far as the eye could see, lofty river extended and irregularly shaped boulders were strewn throughout the river. Within this mess of boulders were massive Water bees. In the center of all of them, was the Queen Water Bee. The Queen Bee was protected by hundreds of water bees.

Normally, a contestant will need to bait the Water bees out of the river and kill them, one group, at a time before taking on the Queen Water Bee. But Whittaker's group charged straight towards the queen!

Chi! Chi!

The fight began the moment they appeared. Under the command of the Queen, the water bees rushed at them to intercept and kill them. The bees were all at the F-rank. Only the floor boss was at the E-rank.

A single slash of Whittaker sword was enough to put several of them down at the same time. Besides, Neko knew powerful offensive spells. Her Chains of Flame burned several of the Water Bees to smoke in mere seconds.

"I am gonna end this!" Sem exclaimed. He took out his Bow of Beginning and End and held it with his left hand. He pulled back the bowstring and a scarlet arrow materialized.

"[The Bloodthirsty Arrow] My luck is great today!" Sem exclaimed before releasing the arrow.

Whoosh!

The arrow shoots at the queen's head with incredible speed. Scarlet Killing Intent condensed at the tip of the arrow as it shoots towards the queen.

Unable to properly react in time, the queen could only use her most powerful skill.

The Water queen mostly relied on her mana to use the water from the river to shield herself and to defeat her opponents in a war of attrition. Yet, the blazing scarlet arrow easily shattered the Neon blue Water barrier erected around her and killed her.

It's simple. The Bloodthirsty arrow was an arrow that contained Sem's C-rank [Killing Intent]. Killing Intent can be obtained by killing thousands of beings. Sem was able to understand the feeling of shooting others to death at the age of 14 and he then Grasped and Gained Control over this Feeling. Therefore he gained [Killing Intent]. He was able to direct his killing intent at others to weaken all their defenses. Whereas the Bloodthirsty arrow ignored the enemy's defenses!

Seeing that the queen was dead, the remaining Water bees flew away.

The killing of the boss on the tenth floor took a few minutes. Harvesting the loot from the queen water bee and the other water bees, the group walked towards the Teleportation Gate which leads to the eleventh floor.
