Chapter 52: The Convenient Staff of Meredith. Was There a More Comfortable Way to Level up Than This?

At this moment, almost all the regions were in a discussion regarding God Slayer.
However, Mike was feeling a little agitated.
Why was it necessary for him to wait for five seconds on each floor of the Tower of Challenge?
It was a waste of time!
After all, not even five seconds were needed for him to kill all the monsters on each floor.
He could essentially finish the battle in one second.
Occasionally, when attacked by magic at the beginning of the battle, Mike would switch the Gun of Meredith to its umbrella form to slightly block it.
Though he mostly only needed to fire a few shots with the gun form.
Before he knew it, he had arrived at the 35th floor.
As soon as the monster appeared, Mike raised his hand and casually fired a few shots.
However, an accident happened.
With a few ding sounds, the bullets fired by the Gun of Meredith were actually blocked by the monster.
Mike revealed a surprised smile.
This was interesting.
This time, the monster was a humanoid monster. It held a shield in its left hand and a one-handed sword in its right hand. The ID on the top of its head was called Wrath of Knight Wilson King.
Mike’s attack was blocked by that shield.
Mike raised his hand and fired a few more shots. Wrath of Knight Wilson King immediately hid behind the shield.
The bullets bounced off the shield one after another and no damage was caused to Wrath of Knight Wilson King.
Wrath of Knight Wilson King’s eyes appeared from behind the shield. He sneered and said,
“Adventurer, your petty tricks have no effect on me at all!”
It was very common for humanoid monsters to have lines in Second World, so Mike was not surprised by this.
However, he felt disdainful toward the lines spoken by Wrath of Knight Wilson King just now.
‘Petty tricks?
‘In that case, I’ll let you know what’s it like to fear death.’
The Spear of Meredith in his hand suddenly changed under the control of Mike’s will, turning into a long, metallic staff.
[Staff of Meredith]
[Quality: legendary]
[Level: 23]
[Attack: 180]
[Weight: 0.1 kg]
[Special attribute: could not be dropped]
[Special effect: Elemental Explosion, Soul of Meredith]
[Elemental Explosion (god-tier passive enhancement): when using any magic attack, the damage and area of effect would increase tenfold]
[Soul of Meredith: when using any magic attack, the mana consumption will be reduced to 0.]
The original effect was that the damage and area of effect would be doubled, and the mana consumption would be reduced by 20%
The original effect was already very beneficial, but after Mike’s god-tier passive enhancement, it instantly became two invincible god-tier skills.
From now on, this staff was no longer a normal magic staff.
It was a magic machine gun!
No, a magic bomber!
“Fireball!”
Mike shouted softly.
A small red fireball immediately condensed on the tip of the Staff of Meredith.
This was a very low-level skill, similar to a magic wand’s normal magic attack.
If a player was out of magic points, they could directly attack the monster with the staff, though the damage would be very low.
The small fireball did not seem like a threat at all. It flew toward Wrath of Knight Wilson King.
Wrath of Knight Wilson King used the back of the one-handed sword in his right hand to tap on the shield in his left hand. Then, he walked towards Mike.
In his opinion, this fireball was not worth paying attention to.
It was just the world’s weakest spell. His 80-year-old grandmother could easily use it.
It was impossible for a spell of this level to hurt him.
That was what went through Wrath of Knight Wilson King’s mind.
The moment the small fireball hit his body, it immediately exploded.
The scorching flames immediately swept through every corner of the floor like a tsunami.
In the flames, Wrath of Knight Wilson King was directly burned into ashes.
Moreover, what killed him was merely the most common magic staff attack.
[Congratulations to player God Slayer for successfully completing the 35th floor of the Tower of challenges, setting a new record.]
[Congratulations to player God Slayer for successfully completing the 35th floor of the Tower of challenges, setting a new record.]
[Congratulations to player God Slayer for successfully completing the 35th floor of the Tower of challenges, setting a new record.]
Another three notifications rang out. The players in the entire server were shocked again, but Mike did not care about it.
It was just another full-service announcement. He was already used to it.
What made him even more surprised was the effect of the Staff of Meredith.
This was much better than the Spear of Meredith.
Although with Mike’s attack power, he would be able to kill any monster in one hit.
However, if he were to fight ten monsters, the Spear of Meredith would need to fire ten shots, while the Staff of Meredith only needed one attack.
For Mike, the Staff of Meredith was more convenient to deal with ordinary monsters.
Therefore, he did not switch back to the Spear of Meredith. Instead, he maintained it in the staff form and kept shooting small fireballs at the ground below his feet.
The five-second wait had just passed, and before the monsters could be seen clearly, the small fireballs exploded and killed the monsters instantly!
Convenient! Easy! Comfortable!
Invincible!!!
When Mike reached the 40th floor, his body emitted a golden light.
He leveled up.
This was definitely not a good place for ordinary players to level up.
This was evident from Mike’s leveling speed.
He only leveled up once after he reached the 40th floor.
If it was any other player, even if they could reach the 40th floor, they would take at least a few hours.
They might as well go to other dungeons to level up.
However, this place was very suitable for Mike to level up.
A wave of monsters appeared after 5 seconds. Mike only needed to release a small fireball on the ground to instantly kill them all.
Using a small fireball once every 5 seconds was very easy.
What made Mike even more satisfied was that he did not need to move at all. He just needed to stand in place.
Of course, if Mike wanted to, he could just lie in place and be in any position he felt comfortable in.
What could be easier than this method of leveling up?
Mike had decided that if he ever needed to level up in the future, he would come to the Tower of Challenges.
Moreover, after a player completed a challenge in the Tower of Challenges, they could receive a reward relative to the number of floors they reached.
Although it was called completing a challenge, in fact, for ordinary players, it was just being killed by a monster.
The level they died on, the reward they would receive.
The higher the number of floors, the better the reward.
In his previous life, Mike had heard that the Tower of Challenge’s record holder, Raven of Hell, had received a pair of orange legendary bracers on the 58th floor.
Although it was uncertain whether the news was true, Mike felt that there was no harm trying anyway. He could just treat it as a leveling-up process.
However, what made Mike even more curious was.
If he would be able to obtain orange equipment on the 58th floor.
Then, if he could reach the 100th floor or even completely clear the Tower of Challenges…
What kind of reward would he receive?
