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

Chapter 166: The Rotten Angels

As James followed the mana trail or rather the mana path, he came across closed doors. He looked at the rotten wooden doors themselves and thought he had come to the 'entrance' of the dungeon. After all, while perfect designs surrounded the hall he had left before, this door was surrounded by a broken-down appearance.

He could even hear the rattling noises around him stop, as if the noises that had just been there had disappeared.

James breathed calmly and then, smiling, pushed the rotten door open.

James had to hold his nose as the doors opened back. The odours that came to his nose were so awful, so disgusting and intimidating that he could hardly keep himself from vomiting right now. Everything in James's stomach was going upwards.

[Poison Master]

[Poison Master title purged mid-tier poison.]

James suddenly saw these system notifications that appeared in front of him, shook his head and said, "I didn't know Poison Master could do such things...I didn't even see such a thing written in the title description."

With these words, a message appeared in front of James from a person he did not expect:

[Sometimes not everything is revealed James, you have to go with the flow and discover, why didn't you see any effect when you used other poisons. I can't believe you never thought about it].

James smiled when he saw this message from Noah, but his smile instantly faded. He took a cloth from his inventory and wrapped it around his chin, his stomach couldn't take it any other way.

Even though he could still smell that disgusting odour, he had managed to get to a point where he could stand it.

However, it was time for James to move on.

"Selene, I apologise for getting your boots dirty, I know it was the system that gave them to me, not you, but even if they are replicas, they belong to you and this place is really... disgusting, forgive me," James said and started to step lightly.

There were rotten and even skeletal corpses everywhere, it was such a disgusting sight that James's face turned sour.

Nevertheless, he continued to move forward with firm and determined steps, he came across many ruined places and passed through puddles of blood, very rarely, but sometimes he encountered traps.

Once in the five minutes he travelled, he even encountered a trap with hundreds of arrows coming at him.

He thought he was in for quite an easy journey.

After a short time he came across another rotten wooden door, but this time there was a change. Strange noises were coming from behind the door, James paused for a few seconds and then said to himself, "Zombies again?".

There was indeed a different level of noise coming from inside, but it sounded as if people were talking.

He slowly approached one of the ajar places of the door and then tried to observe the inside through that hole. Of course, he was surprised by what he saw.

Rotten bodies with white wings were crawling around inside.

"What the fuck?" James said suddenly, clearly unable to stop himself from swearing, he had never expected to be confronted with such a beautiful yet disgusting sight.

As he took the sword Clarent out of his inventory, he grabbed Selene's Throwing Knife in his other hand and then kicked the rotten door in.

"CRASH!"

With the sound of the rotten door breaking, James managed to dive inside and then attacked towards the zombie-like beings consisting of white wings and rotten bodies.

James was avoiding another attack with each step, unexpectedly, these three beings he had just watched through the doorway got on well with each other. It was as if they had fought and died shoulder to shoulder for a long time.

With each attack James dodged, he watched the trio's movements and tried to commit each one to memory in case he had to fight against these monsters in the future.

James was in a big room, so it seemed quite normal to him that the trio around him were wielding spears, but what was strange was how easy their attacks were, yet how heavy they were.

James felt that he could learn about the art of the spear just by watching these three, even though he had the ability to use any weapon, but there was still something different about what was obvious and visible.

Still, James knew he couldn't leave everything waiting for too long, he had to act, because he still had a huge dungeon to clean.

That's why he filled Clarent with his aura and then, with incredible speed, he jumped on a monster, ripped through its heart, pulled Clarent back out and spun around, killing the two remaining monsters with just one move.

[Unique Achievement Won!

Kill a rotten angel for the first time.

You get a chance to choose a card].

James couldn't stop his eyes from widening as he read the notification in front of him, he had half-guessed what these monsters were, but the last thing he expected was for it to come true.

Turning his gaze back to the corpses, he clasped his hands together and then said, "I don't know exactly where the souls go in this tower, but I hope you are not used to making philosopher's stones and that you go only to wherever your paradise is."

He could not have known how much those words meant to the angels watching him.

They had not heard such words for a long time. No one acknowledged the names or the existence of their fallen brothers or sisters or prayed for them unless it came from other angels and sometimes other demons.

James didn't really know, but these words were priceless to all the angels and demons watching him now.

As the angels looked at each other and Michael was about to bestow another gift on James, suddenly the whole hall was plunged into darkness.

Michael, Lucifer and the others knew instantly who had arrived.
