"Wishing you an early conquest of the Tower of Truth!"
Lightning flashed, and Mike appeared on the nineteenth level of the Tower of Truth.
The third class change realm!
Unlike previous class change realms, the third class change was considered a significant milestone.
Most Battle Generals needed to reach level 200 for this.
After the third class change, all attributes would see a substantial increase.
High-rating conquests also brought various benefits.
For example: a second job, class template upgrades, or gaining a new elent in the current job.
However, the rules of the Tower of Truth were always fair.
The more benefits, the higher the difficulty!
To conquer the third class change realm, one needed to do just one thing: defeat the boss!
As Mike appeared, the entire class change realm began to shake violently, bones flying past his eyes.
"Roar-"
A giant bone serpent appeared before Mike, its body floating in mid-air.
Before Mike could attack, another head erged beside the bone serpent!
This was a two-headed bone serpent, and each ti it was killed and revived, it would grow another head!
"Roar-"
"Why are you roaring so loudly?"
Mike sneered, "Think having more heads makes you special?"
"Tripod, bite it for !"
Cerberus barked twice: This is too much for a level 108 dog, isn't it?
Boom-
A lightning bolt struck, turning the bone serpent to ashes, only for it to be reborn again! Watching their master fight the boss, Cerberus and Chaos Claw Tiger were thrilled. Cerberus: Why do I feel like my master is the real boss here?
The battle continued.
Or rather, it wasn't a battle but a one-sided massacre.
With extrely high damage and the ability to gain massive shield value through life steal, combined with life-saving asures like [Lightning Phantom Form], Mike's safety was nearly guaranteed.
Before entering this level, Mike had studied the boss's information and prepared accordingly. The bone serpent was like the mythical Hydra, with heads that kept regenerating, growing more nurous and stronger with each battle.
Each head had a brief invincibility period upon birth.
Additionally, the heads had corresponding elental attributes and powerful buffs, requiring a specific kill order.
If not killed in the correct order, the other heads would beco invincible, waiting for the shattered head to reform before resuming the fight.
For other participants, finding the kill order was a daunting task.
But with the Eye of Truth, Mike could see the kill order directly.
In the past ten minutes, Mike had defeated the boss twice, now facing a four-headed bone serpent.
These four heads corresponded to the elents: Lightning, Fire, Wind, and Water!
The water-elent head, upon birth, was blessed by the sea god!
Clearly, the sea god wouldn't let Mike conquer easily.
If Mike defeated the boss again, he would accumulate 60% Exploration Rate, ready to settle the conquest.
However, the rewards for this would be the lowest.
Even with the stack of [Explorer] and [Blessing of Truth], Mike couldn't accept that.
As Thor, his goal was always an SSSS rating.
Especially in the class change realm, crucial for personal strength developnt!
Focusing, Mike could see the rewards for each rating.
[S rating: Base attributes 50%, job tier upgrade or new elent]
[SS rating: Base attributes 100%, job tier upgrade or new elent or second job]
[SSS rating: Base attributes 200%, Luck 1, job tier upgrade, new elent, second job]
In this level, the further he went, the harder it was to gain Exploration Rate. Heads that had been killed and revived wouldn't provide additional Exploration Rate.
New heads provided diminishing returns on Exploration Rate.
Based on past conquest experiences, achieving an SSS rating required killing a nine-headed bone serpent.
In the past century, fewer than twenty humans had achieved an SSS rating!
Don't forget, Mike also had the Blessing of Truth.
SSSS rating conquest rewards would be even higher than SSS!
"One more thing to note."
Before him, the four-headed bone serpent fell again, powerless against the lightning.
"The elent of the heads is crucial!"
As the boss revived, Mike watched the newly ford head.
The fifth head-[Earth Elent]!
A dirt-colored armor covered the entire skeleton, the head round and dull, like a poop- colored spherical monster.
Participants who achieved high ratings in the third class change realm had a chance to gain a new elent, chosen from the boss's elents!
In other words, the more heads the bone serpent spawned, the wider Mike's choices!
"Starting with the Earth elent this ti, gaining high Physical Defense?"
Mike drew the Thunderclap Hamr and smashed the head.
The poop-colored spherical monster was flattened into a slightly rectangular poop.
In short, it was ugly.
Mike decided to kill it quickly to avoid the eyesore.
With the Eye of Truth's assistance, Mike's powerful lightning output, and his well-prepared
strategies, the boss had no chance.
Five-headed... six-headed... seven-headed...
Ti ticked by.
1 hour and 44 minutes left until 06:10!
Before Mike, the nine-headed serpent fell, the last head rcilessly slain, awaiting its next
revival.
Besides the initial five elents, the new heads corresponded to:
[Ice Elent], [Bone Elent], [Thunder Elent], [Charm Elent]
Elents like [Ice] and [Thunder] weren't major elents but specific mutations.
They excelled in certain areas but had their drawbacks.
For example, [Thunder Elent]. Mike had learned [Zap Attack], one of its signature skills.
[Lightning Elent] could learn all [Thunder Elent] skills, but not vice versa.
Given this, Mike had no reason to choose [Thunder Elent] as his developnt path.
As for [Charm Elent].
Given his handso appearance, Mike was a perfect fit.
However, to hiding his identity, Mike always wore a mask and preferred to command respect
with his lightning skills rather than relying on his appearance.
Nine heads, excluding the four elents Mike already had, and three more options.
The only viable choices left were:
[Bone Elent] and [Earth Elent].
Neither choice thrilled Mike.
Bone Elent had too many limitations and didn't align with Mike's expertise. Under his
lightning, enemies wouldn't have bones left.
Earth Elent, as a basic elent, was strong.
But the poop monster was too ugly for Mike to accept.
The boss's head limit wasn't nine. More heads would spawn with continued killing!
Mike wanted to see if there were better options!
Among basic elents, Mike preferred [Nature Elent].
Among special elents: Space, Soul, and Slaughter were excellent choices.
But the head spawns were random.
Mike could only keep killing to see if better heads appeared.
"Current Exploration Rate: 99.99%"
After the nine-headed serpent fell, its revival ti was noticeably longer!
The tenth head appeared silently, without any noise, almost unnoticeable unless closely
observed!
Hidden in the massive shadow of the serpent's body, the tenth head lay in wait, ready to strike
fatally!
It was well-camouflaged.
But it faced Mike with the Eye of Truth!
The tenth head-[Shadow Elent]!
Mike's spirits lifted, gripping his hamr tighter, his breath quickening.
Shadow Elent?!
This was perfect!
Mike licked his lips, his eyes gleaming,
"I'm going to secretly master the Shadow Elent and amaze all the Guardian Shadows,
especially Shadow Nine!"
