1747 The Hundredth Floor. X As Felix bathed the All-Seeing-Eye in his evil energy, its color began to shift, the normally clear and penetrating red hue turned into a deeper, more sinister shade. Veins of red and black snaked across its surface, giving it a vicious appearance that screamed of corruption and malice! Due to its massive size, the transformation took a short while, but after its completion, no one could remove Felix's pleased smirk from his face. He could feel the connection link…-

1746 The Hundredth Floor. IX 'What are you guys chatting about?' Apollo invaded their discussion with an annoyed tone, feeling neglected. Felix updated him on the situation and told him about his final decision. 'We will head to the twentieth floor.' He said with a cold smile, 'If we made it there and got rid of my chains, we can turn things around.' Felix might not be too confident in being able to slay both Eris and Uranus, but if he caught them off guard with his newfound strength, there was a…

1745 The Hundredth Floor. VIII 'Our identities are already exposed, which means, if we leave the tower without fulfilling our goal, we will have to create new ones. That's quite difficult since we can't reside in the vibronix empire anymore.' Apollo sighed in sadness, not welcoming to the idea of losing his identity and being turned homeless. He had invested quite a lot in his identity. He understood that it would be near impossible to escape Uranus and Eris' radars if they remained in the…

1744 The Hundredth Floor. VII 'I just came to realize that we had it quite nice...' Thor murmured, feeling like his fate as a primogenitor was a million times better than what Commander Bia had to go through. The memories had shown them that Bia had been kidnapped by Uranus on a whim for the sake of fulfilling an experiment. He brought her to the eternal kingdom and 'married' her...But in reality, he put her through all known and unknown forms of abuse for the sake of one goal...Birthing a…

1743 The Hundredth Floor. VI As Felix's true feelings were made clear, a faint shudder occurred at the pitch-black crack, causing some of the highly sensitive beings on the floor to pick up on it. Eris was one of them. 'Something is about to happen in the next cycle and it doesn't bod well for me.' She thought to herself with a stern expression. Meanwhile, the others ignored the sign and continued rushing towards the entrance, using the map's details to their advantage. If it wasn't for the map,…

1742 The Hundredth Floor. V Hours flowed by akin to the desolate murky river within the hundredth-floor and before long more than ten squads had met their fate... This was a huge number considering that the teams were at the foothold of the floor and were still a distance away from the entrance. Fortunately, with so many beams fired in the past hours, the massive Eye began to droop, its relentless surveillance finally showing signs of wear. With a slow, almost reluctant motion, the eye…

1741 The Hundredth Floor. IV 'Sh*t! Sh*t! I didn't expect them to react before the eye fired its beam!' Meanwhile, Samalon's expression had gotten ugly at the sight of the stronghold returning its stability while the All-Seeing-Eye had fired at an irrelevant target. 'I need to dip quickly!' Knowing that his location must have been compromised, Samalon attempted to take advantage of the All-Seeing-Eye's lack of focus and change his location. Alas, he was a bit too late. With a focused…

1740 The Hundredth Floor. III 'How sure are you about this?' Felix doubled down with a hint of surprise in his voice. In his mind, if what she said was true, then he had nothing to fear from the beam. While he was somewhat certain that the beam might be created of that bizarre anti-quantum energy due to his gut feelings being insensitive to it, he still had to make sure. 'All we know is that the beam never failed in obliterating anything it touched.' Commander Bia added, 'Thus, we can only…

1739 The Hundredth Floor II. 'Remember, the All-Seeing Eye is sensitive to the fairest disturbances.' Commander Bia warned with a cold tone, 'While I am sure none of you have any trouble with remaining in one posture, the same can't be said about being forced to move.' This was the reason every squad had to build a stronghold with countless fortifications. The All-Seeing-Eye was one of the Echoing Tower's unknown mysteries. Many attempts to breach past the hundredth floor ended up in failure in…

1738 The Hundredth Floor. I After weeks of navigating the treacherous and ever-changing environments of the first top five floors, the squads finally cleared them and arrived at the last entrance, leading to the hundredth floor. The journey up until now had been a relentless test of their patience since the entrances were hiddenin plain sight and guarded by puzzles that demanded not just intelligence but a deep understanding of the quantum laws that governed the tower. Yet, the relief of…
