Lin Xiao looked at them expressionlessly, which made them even more uneasy. He said a little,
"You can choose to stay."
"Brother!"
"listen to me."
Lin Xiao waved his hand to interrupt them and said,
"It will be very dangerous for us to leave here this time. No one can guarantee that they can protect two ordinary people. Rather than taking risks, it is better for you two to stay. The teaching building will probably collapse soon, but there is a sturdy underground laboratory behind the school. You can move there. If it doesn't work, you can merge with Class 3. They have several evolvers over there, and you have enough manpower to protect them."
What a joke, it's good enough to be able to take you guys, why do I have to take a bunch of burdens?
He doesn't mind looking for a woman, he already has Zhuo Jing, but at least like the other boys in the team looking for girls in the team, everyone is an evolver, so there is no problem of burden.
Without hesitation, he decisively persuaded the two of them to leave, and took the remaining two boys and three girls out of the school, heading towards the direction of the pillar of light that was very eye-catching even in the daytime.
There is nothing worth lingering in the land for a novice. I have been wandering in the forest these days. Although I have not been to all places, I have roughly figured out the strength of the monsters in the forest. The huge beasts I killed before are the strongest among them. The degree of evolution they have improved is okay, but the number is too small. It will take a long time to accumulate enough evolution points to be promoted to the third level.
The best way for him is naturally to leave here and enter the big map, where there are monsters powerful enough to provide him with evolutionary power so that he can grow quickly.
The Novice Forest was not very big, and the towering pillar of light should be located in the center of the map, not far from them. They hacked their way towards it, and when it was almost dark, they could already see a giant white jade tower shrouded in light under the pillar of light.
The Tower of Babel!
It was a whole, and it was hard to tell how many floors it had. It looked more like a stele than a tower. There were three large characters carved on the tower, which were hard to read but whose meanings were understood. Everyone knew the purpose of this Tower of Babel.
It's very simple. As long as you enter the Tower of Babel and pass three levels in a row, you can leave the Novice Village and enter the big map.
Such Tower of Babel is not only found here, but also in countless novice maps in other places, including those of humans and other alien races.
The Tower of Babel stands in the wilderness, as if it fell from thin air. One can see fallen trees and weeds at the bottom of the tower. Monsters are not prohibited from entering the surrounding area. Before they arrived, some evolvers had already come here, and there are still corpses and bloodstains on the ground.
A team of six people and a team of four people were resting beside the tower. On the other side of the tower, there was a grim-faced man holding a sword, sitting alone on the corpse of a huge beast. He ignored them when he saw them coming. Those who needed to talk continued talking, while those who needed to rest continued sitting in meditation with their eyes closed.
Lin Xiao took a special glance at the man sitting on the corpse of the huge beast. He dared to go alone and kill a huge beast single-handedly. This man was quite powerful, at least at the second level.
The team cut down a tree beside the tower to rest. A girl named Wu Ziqi and another girl named Ruan Wan walked towards the two teams to inquire about the situation.
Lin Xiao walked to the Tower of Babel and looked at the white jade tower body that was seamlessly integrated. He paused and put his hand on the white jade tower body. A piece of information appeared in his mind.
According to the information, as long as you reach out and press the tower, you can enter the tower and challenge it with just a thought.
The challenge can only be carried out by one person, and the difficulty of the challenge depends on personal strength.
For example, if there is only one level of evolvers, the difficulty will start from the first level.
If the evolver is at level two, the basic difficulty starts from level two. The stronger the initial strength, the higher the initial difficulty.
And once you start the challenge, you cannot quit before the third level, which means that if you can't beat it, you will die in it.
It is worth mentioning that the Tower of Babel has a total of thirty-six floors. You only need to pass three levels in a row to enter the main cities of various races on the map.
In addition, after passing three levels in a row, you can choose to continue to pass the levels. You can quit the subsequent levels midway. You will get extra benefits for passing the levels continuously, and the number of levels you finally pass will be related to the final reward.
Lin Xiao understood this even without being told. Not to mention here, there were many similar things in the main world. Some big guys set up similar levels in their own divine domains, and some were simply called the Tower of Babel, allowing their patrons to pass the levels and select elites of the same kind for training.
He was very interested in this and came back to say to Zhuo Jing:
"When you go through the levels later, try to challenge as many levels as possible.
At this time, Ruan Wan and Wu Ziqi came back. The other teams had just arrived not long ago, and several people had already entered the Tower of Babel.
He said to them:
"You can only enter the Tower of Babel one by one. You are not strong enough. After passing the third level, you can try to challenge more levels, but you must do it according to your ability. Once you feel that the difficulty is too great, stop the challenge immediately to avoid dying in there."
The two men and three women are of average talent. If nothing unexpected happens, they won't achieve much. But as long as they take one step at a time, they will not fall to the bottom of society.
After a short rest, he shook Zhuo Jing's hand and walked towards the Tower of Babel.
Coincidentally, the lonely cold-blooded man also stood up and walked towards the Tower of Babel. He glanced at him without any expression, put his hand on the Tower of Babel, and his body turned into a ray of light and sank into the tower.
Lin Xiao ignored him, stretched out his hand and pressed on the Tower of Babel, and with a thought, time and space changed before his eyes.
When the space stabilized, they found themselves in a space with a diameter of 100 meters. The ceiling was covered with white stone slabs. Although there was no light source, everything inside was as clear as day.
A prompt sounded in his ears, and a one-hundred-second countdown appeared in the center of the space.
The countdown quickly reached zero and disappeared. A white light fell from the sky, casting an ugly bat monster about two meters tall with a wingspan of nearly four meters suspended in the air. It pounced on him without even a second's pause.
Lin Xiao didn't even dodge and crashed into the bat monster that was rushing towards him.
"boom!"
He took a step back, unharmed, while the bat monster flew backwards with a huge wound on its chest and abdomen that exposed its internal organs, and blood spurted all over the ground.
Soon a white light fell, and the bat monster's body and blood quickly melted away. Under the white light, his almost unconsumed physical strength quickly recovered, and the one hundred-second countdown appeared again.
The second round came soon, still bat monsters, but two of them appeared at the same time.
With the help of his damage absorption talent, he was completely immune to all damage, and he killed them one by one, quickly entering the third round.
These large bat monsters are actually quite powerful, and pose a certain threat to normal second-level evolvers. Unfortunately, Lin Xiao not only has super talent, but also has additional strength of his own in addition to the power of evolution. With the combination of the two, his strength far exceeds that of evolvers of the same level.
Just like in the game, the level 20 dungeon final boss beats the level 20 ordinary monster, it is a completely one-sided crushing victory.
The third round still had bat monsters, but their number suddenly increased to four.
If it were a normal evolver, it might be a bit troublesome, but for Lin Xiao, as long as they don't break his defense, it doesn't matter how many come.
After three levels, two prompts appeared in front of Lin Xiao. One was to enter the main city of humans, and the other was to continue the challenge. Naturally, he chose to continue the challenge.
After a hundred seconds of countdown, the fourth level appeared. This time it was no longer a bat monster, but a minotaur wearing half armor and carrying a big axe, which was three meters tall. Its strong muscles and fierce aura showed that it was more than one level stronger than the bat monster.
As soon as the Minotaur appeared, it roared and a circle of air exploded. You could clearly see that its body had grown a little bit bigger. Then it rushed towards him with an axe and started chopping.
Lin Xiao wanted to test his strength, so he didn't dodge but raised his sword to block.
"clang!"
When the force came at him, he paused slightly to hold it in, already knowing what was going on.
It is stronger than himself, but not overwhelming. After his talent for absorbing excess strength, he can easily withstand the impact. What makes this level more powerful than the previous one is that the Minotaur has a certain degree of intelligence, weapons and equipment, as well as combat experience. For the same adult man, the combat effectiveness of a new recruit and a veteran can be very different.
But this so-called combat experience was far inferior to Lin Xiao's combat experience. After a series of clanging exchanges, Lin Xiao relied on his faster reaction and combat experience to suppress the Minotaur head-on, constantly adding wounds to its body. The accumulation of minor injuries made it weaker and weaker, and he was eventually killed.
In the fifth level, there is still a Minotaur, but it has better equipment and more combat experience.
Especially the wheel axe was made of fine steel. Sparks flew when the axe was chopped down, and a finger-sized gap suddenly appeared on his white sword.
He had to change his tactics and use the thick back of his knife to block and receive the axe more often to prevent the weapon from breaking in the middle of the fight.
But even such a big sword did not last long. By the time he found an opportunity to cut the throat and decide the outcome, there were more than a dozen gaps and a crack on the sword.
But as soon as this elite Minotaur died, a white light appeared, and a long sword made of fine steel exploded.
He guessed that this was automatically exploded by the Tower of Babel based on his situation. After all, the purpose of the Tower of Babel was to test and select elites. If one didn't even have weapons to deal with those thick-skinned and thick-fleshed monsters, it would definitely affect the challenger's combat effectiveness.
The difficulty of the sixth level increases sharply, and three elite minotaurs appear at once.
But with better weapons in hand, Lin Xiao's combat effectiveness also skyrocketed. Many combat skills that were previously restricted by the strength of weapons can now be used. Relying on his damage absorption talent and taking injury for injury, he forcibly killed the three-headed minotaur.
Anyway, the injuries will recover as soon as they are dealt with, which greatly increases the room for maneuver.
It is worth mentioning that the monsters killed in the levels also increase evolution points. The evolution points provided by these powerful monsters that cannot be encountered in the novice village are quite considerable. At this moment, he has increased his evolution degree by several percentage points. Judging from the fact that the monsters become stronger as time goes by, if he can get through the 20th or 30th level, he may be able to be directly promoted to the third level.
In the seventh level, there are ten elite minotaurs, among which there is a minotaur warrior who is even taller, wearing exquisite chain mail, with two large axes and several hand axes on his waist.
