37: This time it's truly invincible!

Chapter 37: Now He's Truly Invincible!

This was Lu Ran's first time entering the Endless Tower dungeon.

His position was in a safe zone on one side of a huge platform.

In the middle of the platform was a Pi Pi Pig, only it was a larger version.

[Level 1 Pi Pi Pig (First Floor)]

Lu Ran could see the level and the monster's name, but not its HP or attributes.

This Level 1 one was clearly the simplest.

Lu Ran didn't rush to attack; instead, he turned to look around.

Around the entire platform, eight towering stone pillars were arranged octagonally, supporting the dome above.

The height was about fifty meters.

The platform's surroundings were walls.

He could also see eight tower windows.

Lu Ran guessed that his current location should be on the first floor of the Endless Tower.

Then he just needed to fight his way up, floor by floor.

It's just that Lu Ran hadn't yet seen any stairs or other ways to reach the second floor above.

"Then let's start fighting. These lower-level ones at the beginning should be easy," Lu Ran murmured.

Then he pulled out his staff.

It's worth mentioning that the staff Lu Ran was holding now was no longer the Frostwolf Staff.

Instead, it was an epic-grade, no-level requirement item that Ye Hongyi had chosen for him.

The reason this one was chosen was because the weapon had high intelligence and also a 3% spell attack power bonus.

As Liu Xinxin put it, any percentage increase in spell attack power was a god-tier attribute for Lu Ran!

For ordinary magic-based professions, such a small increase in spell attack power seemed negligible.

But this 3% spell attack power, when applied to Lu Ran's Blood Spear's charge-up, resulted in terrifying damage!

Bang!

In a flash, over a dozen Skeleton Soldiers were thrown out, then rushed over to Corpse Explosion the Pi Pi Pig.

Instant kill, without any suspense.

[Congratulations! You have cleared Endless Tower Floor 1, gaining 10000 experience.]

"Ten thousand experience? Wow, not bad!" Lu Ran murmured.

Although compared to dungeons, this ten thousand experience was negligible, it was only the first floor of the Endless Tower!

No wonder each professional could only receive experience rewards once per floor.

Then, within the safe zone at the edge of the platform where Lu Ran had entered, a spiraling staircase appeared.

Because the floor height was fifty meters, this spiral staircase looked like a long, thin twist.

Lu Ran directly stepped onto the stairs and walked up.

The BOSS of the second floor was already waiting.

[Level 2 Frost Wolf (Second Floor)]

Lu Ran directly sent Skeleton Soldiers to Corpse Explosion it for an instant kill, intending to speed up his ascent through the floors.

[Congratulations! You have cleared Endless Tower Floor 2, gaining 20000 experience.]

Lu Ran's eyes narrowed slightly.

He murmured, "So, if I clear a floor, the experience is that many tens of thousands? This experience is indeed generous!"

By the time he reached dozens of floors, one floor would be hundreds of thousands of experience!

Just like that, Lu Ran cleared floor after floor.

His experience bar climbed steadily, and the monster grinding process was simple, mostly Corpse Explosion, sweeping through everything.

When he reached the seventeenth floor.

Lu Ran successfully leveled up to Level 20, and at this point, it was still extremely easy!

Because of Undead Touch, coupled with Lu Ran's current abundant mana, Skeleton Soldiers were continuously thrown out.

The BOSSes, however, were infinitely controlled by Undead Touch, passively taking hits in place, unable to resist.

Lu Ran glanced at the staircase to the eighteenth floor that had already appeared, not rushing up, but instead opening his skill list to look.

The Level 20 skill had already been unlocked.

[Skill: Bone Storm]

[Cooldown: 2 minutes]

[Cost: 50 mana]

[Effect: Gathers bones to form a storm, dealing continuous 10-second area-of-effect spell damage to all enemy units within a thirty-meter radius!]

"I have an area-of-effect skill now," Lu Ran murmured.

Although he had learned many professional skills in school, there were too many skills, and Lu Ran wasn't very concerned with the skills of ordinary conventional professions, so he couldn't remember them.

This was another crucial skill for an Undead Mage after Blood Spear.

A continuous damage area-of-effect skill.

It was needed by many small teams when clearing dungeons; the ten-second Bone Storm dealt considerable damage to dungeon monsters.

The two-minute cooldown was directly ignored by Lu Ran.

However, the mana cost was not low, requiring fifty mana points.

"It's not very useful. The Skeleton Soldier's Corpse Explosion is already an area-of-effect attack, though the range is a bit smaller, but I summon so many!" Lu Ran murmured.

This skill was a very good area-of-effect skill for other Undead Mages, but for Lu Ran, it didn't have much significance.

But as soon as Lu Ran saw the next new entry that unlocked, he immediately changed his mind.

[Entry: Broad Sky]

[Effect: From the day this entry is unlocked, for every enemy unit killed, all skill coverage areas increase by one meter, with no upper limit (Current bonus: 0 meters)]

Lu Ran's breathing immediately quickened.

This entry was similar to Perk: Broad Inclusion.

It also increased range by killing enemy units.

But the difference was that Perk: Broad Inclusion increased the casting range of skills.

Meaning the greater the distance, the farther skills could be cast, like Blood Spear, long-range sniping!

And Broad Sky increased the coverage area of skills!

This was truly terrifying.

Because whether it was Undead Touch or the newly unlocked Bone Storm, the skill coverage area was thirty meters!

But as Lu Ran's monster kills continuously increased, this range would become larger and larger.

It was a pity that the entry had just unlocked, and the bonus had not yet started accumulating, nor had it inherited the range from Perk: Broad Inclusion.

Otherwise, if Lu Ran were to cast a Bone Storm now, it could cover forty kilometers!

What was the concept of a Bone Storm covering forty kilometers?

That was not just simply covering a main city!

During National War, a forty-kilometer range would be enough to cover any country's army!

Moreover, Lu Ran also had the skill casting range from Perk: Broad Inclusion, allowing him to cast Bone Storm from a long distance, covering enemy armies, and the skill had no cooldown, allowing for infinite stacking of Bone Storms!

Want to run?

Sorry, the range of Undead Touch was also forty kilometers!

All professionals of the enemy country, stand still!

Even if the control effect was dispelled, it was useless; Lu Ran's Undead Touch had no cooldown!

It was a pity that Lu Ran's level was still low, and his spell attack power was insufficient; otherwise, even if he entered the National War battlefield now, he could instantly control any country's army, then use Bone Storm to completely annihilate them!

It was just a pity that Lu Ran's spell attack power was still not enough, and the damage was clearly insufficient.

"Furthermore, I won't have to worry about attack range for any area-of-effect skills I unlock in the future!" Lu Ran murmured excitedly.

These entries were simply more abnormal than the last.

He was only Level 20 now.

But all his skills now had no cooldown!

All skill casting ranges were infinitely increased!

All skill coverage areas were infinitely increased!

Now he was truly invincible!

Even Lu Ran couldn't imagine what he would become as his level continuously increased, reaching higher levels, and gaining seven or eight more skills and entries.

"Whew, keep grinding," Lu Ran calmed his emotions.

He glanced at the staircase leading to the eighteenth floor and walked over.

His progress in clearing floors was still continuously increasing.

Now, clearing one floor yielded tens or even hundreds of thousands of experience!

Lu Ran's experience bar climbed steadily!

At the same time, in the Dungeon Hall.

The three guild leaders and Qin Wuyao were waiting patiently outside.

Although they were confident in Lu Ran's abilities, they still had some doubts.

"I wonder how Lu Ran is doing with his grinding," Ye Hongyi asked with a slightly worried tone.

"Don't worry, he has Blood Spear, and so many Skeleton Soldiers, and the Yin-Yang Two Realms, and the Treasure Gourd. What BOSS could possibly kill him?" Lei Tai was more easygoing, waving his hand as he spoke.

In contrast, Liu Xinxin was much more rational.

She glanced at the communicator on her wrist, then looked up at the Endless Tower's entrance teleportation array, smiling as she said, "The communicator is lit up, so Lu Ran will be fine. And he should already be Level 20, still pushing for more floors. I just wonder what new entry Lu Ran unlocked?"
