Reina had forgotten how many days she had been in the tower. She couldn't count since the tenth day. But she was sure that they were about to reach the end.
But as Horn said, the higher they climbed, the more dangerous it was.
It wasn't the kind of danger of falling, but another kind, a dragon guarding the treasure.
"The 90th floor is in front. It's not so easy above. You may die. If you think it's enough, you can give up at any time."
Horn said.
"Tch! I won't give up. The biggest danger in the world is me! "Mr. Crocodile said casually.
However, Reina didn't think so.
She raised her head and looked at the statue in front of her. It should be a statue, like a knight in armor, but more than five meters tall. The armor on the body was broken with countless holes, the head was missing, and the body was entangled by giant vines.
Although they were inside the pagoda, it was more like a world. It was an incomparably huge shrine. A huge vine grew out from the bottom of the pagoda and climbed all the way here. The place where everyone was standing was the top of the vine. Its overflowing vines covered everything around, and the bright stone bricks became very dim.
This giant may not be a statue. Looking at it, Reina had a feeling of uneasiness in her heart.
At this time, she was still carrying a pile of gems on her back, like a treasure thief.
However, Horn turned around and said earnestly, "From now on, you won't be able to handle things as easily as before. If you're not careful, you'll really lose your life. I advise you to listen to me and throw them away."
Although Reina was very reluctant to give up these gems, she finally threw some away.
The entrance to the 91st floor was a giant door more than ten meters high. There were platforms on both sides of the door, but there was nothing on the platforms.
But to get to the door, they still needed to climb a very long staircase. This staircase was full of traces of battle, potholes, and many wreckage lying on it. Most of them were not human, but there were also human remains. They didn't know how long they had been dead, but now only the bones were left.
Mr. Crocodile squatted in front of a white bone. It was rare for him to be quiet, looking at the body without saying a word. Reina was a little curious.
"What happened?"
Reina bent down and asked. When she looked at Mr. Crocodile's face, she was almost shocked. He gritted his teeth and showed a terrible face.
There was only a skeleton on the ground. It was about the same size as a human, but the skeleton was slightly larger, and there was a long horn on its head.
"This is the corpse of a Unicorn Ghost."
Mr. Crocodile replied.
Horn, who was walking in front, also stopped and turned back to look at the two of them.
"Single-Horned Ghost? What's that? "
Reina had never heard of this name, and neither had Mr. Ball, who was standing at her feet.
"Ah? You don't even know about the Unicorn Ghost, how ignorant are you! "
Mr. Crocodile cursed.
"That is a very terrifying Demon Clan. They are proficient in all kinds of witchcraft and are good at close combat. The one who annihilated the Demon King is from the Unicorn Demon Clan." Horn explained. Then, he bent down to look at the corpse.
"Single Horned Ghosts are selected and eliminated from the moment they are born. Weak individuals cannot survive in a group, so the surviving Single Horned Ghosts are very powerful. It is also for this reason that they are very rare. After the Annihilation Demon King was destroyed, they are rarely seen in modern times."
"Hmph! It's better to destroy this race! "
Mr. Crocodile cursed, then stood up unhappily and walked toward the door.
Horn smiled and quietly said to Reina, "The Unicorn Ghost's Coming of Age Ritual is to get one of the Werewolf's teeth, the Dragon's scales, or the Crocodile's tail. Because of these three, the Crocodile's tail is the easiest to get, so … you know. "
Hearing this, Reina looked at Mr. Crocodile and found that the tip of Mr. Crocodile's tail was missing a small section.
The huge stone door was tightly closed. Horn stood in front of the door. He looked back seriously and said, "There will be many enemies inside. They can't be killed. We can only rush in and try to get rid of them as much as possible. Go directly to the next floor. You have to follow me. The road inside is very complicated."
After saying this, he took a deep breath and pushed the giant door with both hands. Although he was thin and hairy, he had an inconceivable strength. A golden light emerged from his palm and crawled along the door. Suddenly, with a boom, the ten-meter-tall giant stone door actually opened.
Just as the door was opened, it was not dark inside. Instead, it was dazzling. The strong light shone, making people unable to open their eyes. Even if they closed their eyes, the light would pass through the eyelids, making them see red.
"Ah!"
At this time, Reina heard Mr. Crocodile next to her scream. She squinted and looked. Under the white light, Mr. Crocodile covered his eyes and his skin seemed to be burning.
"Go in!"
Horn hurriedly shouted. Reina was a little overwhelmed. The light was just dazzling to her, but it caused serious damage to Mr. Crocodile.
"If the door is not closed, the light will not stop!"
Horn shouted. He held the door tightly and could only open a small entrance. Lena clenched her teeth and suddenly untied the bag on her back. Multicolored gems flew out and burst into multicolored lights under the strong light. She used the cloak to block Mr. Crocodile, then grabbed his long mouth and dragged him in with her eyes closed.
Boom!
There was a loud sound of the door closing behind her, and then the eyelids darkened. Reina dared to open her eyes.
"Are you okay, little princess?"
Mr. Ball's voice came from beside her, but she could see nothing. The surroundings were not dark, but quite bright. It was just that the light was so dazzling that Reina temporarily lost her vision. After a few seconds, her eyes recovered.
What appeared in front of him was a very strange place. It was like a holy temple. An angelic statue appeared in the hall, facing the door. It was holding a holy spear, and the spearhead was a very large transparent crystal. The light just now was probably emitted by it.
She felt as if she was stepping on something. She looked down and found that it was a white bone.
"Hey!"
Reina was shocked. Of course, she was used to one or two corpses, but looking around, the room was full of bones, and none of the corpses were complete.
"Don't stay here! Run! "
Horn said quickly.
At this time, Mr. Crocodile on the ground was smoking, and there were serious burn marks on his thick skin. You know, his skin was invulnerable, but it was hurt by the white light.
"But! Mr. Crocodile … "
"I'm fine!"
At this moment, Mr. Crocodile stood up with his teeth. He stood up with his spear, but the situation did not seem optimistic.
"Keep going!"
It shouted, then ran towards Horn while gasping for breath. Reina hurriedly picked up the cloak on the ground, but at this time, a rumbling sound came from inside the temple. Horn who was running in front suddenly stopped, only to see the spear-wielding angel statue moving.
Horn raised his head, looked at the statue, and said with wide eyes, "Oh no!"
