Chapter 19: Tower of Trials (II)

The Tower of Trials!

Although the current blue star people might not know what it is, but how could Lin Ye who was from the future not know?

In his previous life, the Tower of Trials had a complex relationship with the human race as most people couldn’t decide whether its appearance was a blessing or a curse

Two years after the appearance of dungeons, the human race was gradually being pushed back by the foreign invaders despite the appearance of awakeners

The world population of eight billion people had dropped to a little over seven hundred million with various countries being completely extinct for all of history

Just looking at their current situation, almost every human on the blue star felt like the war was lost, as some people had even begun to surrender to the invaders in hopes of survival

The downfall of the human race seemed to be set in stone, as only a miracle could turn the situation around

And fortunately, that miracle did happen!

I’m the form of a huge tower floating over the center of the earth, thousands of human beings were pulled into the tower of trials

According to the floor manager back then, the Tower of Trials seemed to be some sort of prison and testing ground various civilizations on the brink of extinction evolution, and destruction would encounter

Passing all the trials and keeping going upward was the only clear rule.

With each trial cleared, based on one’s achievements various rewards could be granted, from awakening abilities to special equipment, almost everything was possible

Unfortunately, while this seemed to be a good thing, the penalty for not clearing it was harsh, as most cases would lead to death

And if at any point they wes nobody were able to clear the tower, then the blue star would be directly included in the tower and become an extra floor

Yes! The whole blue star would become just a floor on the tower

In fact, after the appearance of the tower, blue star humans were exposed to more information about the universe and its various forces.

And due to this, they learned the specialness of their planet, and why those outside forces were so eager to invade

Luckily, the tower although extremely difficult in the higher stages, but after humans began to reach the 1000 and above floors, they had already gotten enough strength to fight against the top powerhouses in the universe

But as the years went by, and as the humans’ strength gradually inflated, most people began to look at the tower as a time bomb hanging over their heads rather than a savior

As even the strongest humans couldn’t get a glimpse of the tower’s origin, in fact even Lin Ye couldn’t decipher its origin as it seemed to be something not of this universe

And to make it more suspicious, the top forces of the universe all seemed to be scared or nervous whenever something regarding the tower came up as neither of them would say anything.

Remembering this, although Lin Ye couldn’t understand why the tower suddenly came today instead of three years from now, however to him this was good news

The tower also has a live broadcast mode which can broadcast his performance to non-trial participants and earthlings around the world allowing him to open another secret identity

Adding to the fact that there are also benefits of joining the first echelon and being the first to climb the tower, Lin Ye had no reason to resist

However, even at that, he still didn’t choose to accept yes, at least not yet

*no we can’t make it too obvious, according to my guess some of the others in this class were also selected*

*if I suddenly click on the air, I might get seen and know I was selected, let’s wait till no one is looking before picking*

*Also, I need to get back home and pick out a disguise before the tower fully appears on Earth

*Thankfully, judging from the current situation it seems that there’s still a bit of time as this is probably a preliminary recruitment before its opening*

Looking around, Lin Ye out of caution decided to wait first before acting, after all, although he was eager to enter the trials,

But preserving his identity was a much greater priority.

Not to mention that he had already made a plan with the clown and the mysterious man, Lin Ye was sure to rise to the peak without even entering the tower

However, whenever he considered the fact that the origins of the tower were probably something unimaginable, Lin Ye felt he would regret it if he didn’t go in

*sigh… tower, I hope you don’t let me down!*

Deciding to alter his earlier plans a bit, Lin Ye couldn’t wait for school to end and see what meteorites the clown and the mysterious man had caught for him

Since even the tower was appearing now, Lin Ye wasn’t sure that the earth-born relics would be the same as last time

Hopefully, they would be strong enough for him to proceed to his next set of plans

However, just as he was about to analyze a bit more on the current situation, a very arrogant laugh sounded in his ear

“Hahah! I knew it! I am the protagonist!!!”

“My Mu Fan has finally gotten his system!”

Laughing at the top of his lungs, Mu Fan seemed to look down on everyone as he spoke

And Lin Ye seeing this, couldn’t help but have a smile on his face

*it seems that they’re finally reacting to the towers message*

Looking at this, Lin Ye couldn’t help but look around and wonder how many people had been chosen by the tower this time.

According to his guess, since he was chosen, and Mu Fan was chosen, it was most likely that a few others were chosen

And sure enough! As soon as Mu Fan said this, a few other eyes suddenly widened in disbelief

Obviously, this was their system, why did somebody else have it?

Could it be that they aren’t the protagonist?
