Chapter 97 Strange Golden Portals
On the other hand, after one more hour. Kyle finally appeared at the place where the map showed a golden cross mark.
In front of him was a large field of green grass. The grass was thick and long, its height was almost equal to the towering trees surrounding Kyle.
Even Bia who was flying above the grass wasn't able to see what was inside. With a caution expression, Kyle moved some patches of grass and entered inside.
After walking inside the grass for a minute, Kyle found a small open area in the middle of the grass.
The area was so small that only a single human could come out from the grass and stand in that place.
Also, it was completely hidden between the towering grass.
Seeing a white book floating in the middle of the area, Kyle's eyes lit up. He hurriedly grabbed the book but when he saw it was about arrays his excitement vanished.
He threw the book inside his storage ring like garbage.
"Why are we only finding books about arrays?"
Including the book he just acquired. Kyle found a total of 4 books about Arrays. He didn't knew anything about arrays that's why he had no use for these books right now.
Kyle sighed and hurriedly left the grass and started walking further toward the east.
Meanwhile, above the grass field. Susan's eyes almost popped out when he saw how effortlessly Kyle entered the grass field and left after taking the book.
He shouted with frustration.
"What the heck are the grass monsters doing?"
He was so angry that he wanted to go down and kill all the useless green snail-like monsters who were present inside the grass field.
Susan wanted to throw Kyle to the seventh floor and be done with his job, but for some crappy reason Kyle had been avoiding almost all the holes, pits and tunnels like plague!
After taking a deep breath, Susan looked at Kyle. It was the first time in his life, he had to work so hard just to send someone out from his floor.
"I don't care anymore."
Susan waved his hand and a large golden portal appeared beneath Kyle's feet.
On the other hand, Kyle who just came out from the grass field suddenly felt a suction force dragging him downward.
He looked down and his eyes contracted, without even waiting for a second Kyle used 'Instant Teleportation' to teleport a few meters away from the golden portal.
Bia also looked at the portal and cried with surprise.
-'What the hell was that?'
Kyle looked at the portal which just appeared out of nowhere. He shook his head as he was also surprised and didn't knew anything.
After seeing Kyle using 'Instant Teleportation' Susan almost coughed out blood.
He looked at the sky seemingly complaining to his master.
'Why the hell do you have to give me such a hard job!'
"Huu."
After taking another breath, he waved his hand again and another portal appeared behind Kyle who was staring at the previous portal with caution.
-'Kyle look back!'
Bia shouted as she saw another portal appearing behind Kyle out of nowhere.
Kyle's eyes widened as he sensed the familiar suction force. He wanted to use 'Instant Teleportation' again but an invisible hand grabbed his shoulder and dumped him inside the portal.
Bia shouted Kyle's name and looked at the portal. She was frozen in her place due to shock.
-'What is happening!'
Her question wasn't answered. While she was looking at the portal another small portal appeared underneath her.
With a horrid expression, Bia wanted to move away but an invisible hand pushed her inside the portal.
-'Help! I don't want to die young!'
Bia flapped her wings frantically and cried in her mind before she also disappeared within the portal.
After both of them were gone. Susan's floating figure looked at the portals with relief.
"I am done. Now I can finally go and rest."
With a wave of his hand, all the golden portals disappeared. Susan flew toward the vast sky with a tired expression.
The Tower guardians weren't omnipotent, they were trapped within the Tower. They can't see the outside world nor can they leave the Tower. Not until something big happened in the outside world or someone powerful called out to them.
Including the other four Towers present in the outside world, all five Towers have a total of 100 floors. A long time ago, 100 guardians were assigned to take care of all the Towers but 60 of them died after reaching the end of their lifespan.
Every time the younger generation of each Continent entered the Towers, all the remaining guardians had to fight so they could go down to the lower floors.
It's not they wanted to come down because of some young kids, it's just they were bored after living inside a trapped place for so long.
The first three floors of the Towers were similar as they were practice floors. The real test starts after the third floor when the floor's structure completely changes due to the guardian's powers.
All five Towers were connected but with the help of different space pockets, they were separated from each other.
After so many years, all the remaining guardians were old. That's why even though they were powerful some of them preferred to rest instead of taking care of their respective floors.
....
Meanwhile, On the seventh floor;
Alec and Jian both were just done killing the two fire skeletons who crawled out from the lava lake.
They both walked back toward the large stone they had been sitting on a while ago.
Alec hurriedly climbed the stone and looked at Jian who was walking over with a grumpy expression.
Suddenly under Alec's gaze, a golden portal appeared a few meters above Jian's head.
Alec's eyes widened as he shouted toward Jian.
"Look up!"
"?"
With a confused expression, Jian looked up. His eyes contracted when he saw a black figure coming out from the portal.
"OMG!"
Jian wanted to move away but it was too late. The figure directly crashed down on Jian who had a very ugly expression.
-BAM!
