45: Chapter 45 is an instant kill!

Inside the tower, Lu Yin's pace did not slow down in the slightest.

From the eleventh to the nineteenth floor, the monsters changed into another agile type, the Shadow Leopard. Their level increased to 18, and their numbers began to increase floor by floor again.

However, this was meaningless.

In the face of absolute power, numbers were just tedious digits.

The crushing torrent formed by ten Dragonman Lords was enough to flatten everything. The Shadow Leopards' speed advantage was a joke in the face of the Lords' more violent power and area-of-effect attacks.

Instant kill.

Instant kill.

Still an instant kill.

Lu Yin didn't even bother to look at the monsters' specific information; he simply walked calmly, summoned, and then stepped onto the newly appearing stairs.

His speed was even faster than in the first ten floors!

Because the change in monster strength was simply not worth mentioning compared to his Death Soldier.

Outside the tower, the crowd had completely lost their voices, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing.

That light dot representing Lu Yin moved at a constant high speed that made one's scalp tingle.

It arrogantly tore through layer after layer of obstacles, approaching the twentieth floor in the blink of an eye!

And at this moment, most of the light dots inside the tower were still struggling below the tenth floor.

The fastest one, Li Chenxu, had only just stabilized on the seventeenth floor, clearly in the middle of a hard battle.

The contrast between the two was like clouds and mud.

“The 20th-floor BOSS should be able to slow his pace down a bit, right?”

A recruit murmured with a shocked expression.

The person next to him was about to agree when he discovered with horror that Lu Yin's light dot had already stepped into the twenty-first floor's position.

“No... he...”

Someone was about to speak, saying this defied common sense.

But in the blink of an eye, Lu Yin had already ascended to the twenty-second floor!

Outside the tower, there was a deathly silence.

People looked up, their pupils shrinking violently as they stared fixedly at that light dot leading the pack by a mile.

It was as if their throats were being gripped by invisible hands, unable to make a sound.

The twentieth floor—that was a guardian BOSS floor!

According to common sense, the monster strength would undergo a qualitative leap, enough to intercept the vast majority of challengers and trap them in a bitter struggle.

But in front of Lu Yin, it seemed no different from clearing out ordinary trash mobs.

And just as the crowd was speechless, Lu Yin had already arrived before the 30th-floor BOSS.

The 30th floor was the first true watershed.

The monsters' levels had already reached Level 30.

When conventional Professionals reached this point, it was basically difficult for them to even break through the monsters' defense.

They thought that no matter how freakish Lu Yin was, his pace should slow down at least a little.

However, in the next instant, a scene appeared that shattered everyone's worldview.

In just one second, less than a single breath.

Lu Yin's light dot flickered again.

The thirty-first floor!

Hiss!

The sound of people gasping in cold air rang out across the entire field.

“A monster... he's a monster!”

“This guy isn't human at all!”

The recruits murmured despondently, their eyes filled with awe and fear as they looked at the light screen.

This was the first time they had so intuitively felt Lu Yin's freakishness.

In the past, they only knew Lu Yin was very strong and could easily break all the records in Dungeons.

Now they understood that Lu Yin could not be described by the word 'strong' alone.

Lu Yin, naturally, didn't know about the shock outside. The intensity of this Trial Tower was simply not enough to make him take it seriously.

After the 30th floor, the level and strength of the monsters climbed again.

However, for Lu Yin, it was still meaningless.

The ten Dragonman Lords were like meat grinders; the moment any monster appeared, it would be arrogantly torn to shreds.

Outside the tower, the crowd had gone from shock to numbness.

“It's the 40th floor...”

Someone spoke with a dry voice, as if telling a fairy tale.

“Li Chenxu... he just exhausted all his means at the 25th floor to barely pass...”

Another person looked at the second-place light dot on the screen, which was struggling to climb to the twenty-sixth floor at a speed clearly more than ten times slower, his tone full of absurdity.

This massive gap made it so that people couldn't even feel jealousy; only pure and suffocating admiration remained.

“Do you think... he will... in one go...”

A bold hypothesis spread through the crowd, but no one dared to finish the sentence.

In one go, what?

Clear the tower?

As far as they knew, since this Trial Tower appeared, no recruit had ever been able to break through the fiftieth floor.

Even many Mythic Classes had met their Waterloo here.

The best result was only reaching the forty-fifth floor.

It was said that the forty-fifth floor featured Level 45 assassin-type monsters.

And most Professionals who could reach this floor were basically in a state of exhaustion.

Add to that the fact that assassin-type monsters had very high critical hit rates and would use stealth skills.

So many geniuses failed right here.

Amidst everyone's bated breath, Lu Yin also quickly stepped onto the forty-fifth floor.

The moment he entered the forty-fifth floor, the environment suddenly became dim, and twelve blurry figures loomed in the shadows.

Lu Yin's eyes lifted slightly, and this time he summoned twenty Death Soldier.

Ten Dragonman Lords and ten Orc Warlords.

At the same moment the Death Soldier appeared, those twelve blurry figures struck rapidly.

Ssh, ssh, ssh!

Sharp sounds of breaking air came from the void as the twelve dark shadows shuttled through like ghosts.

The daggers in their hands flashed with a cold, eerie light, aimed directly at Lu Yin's vital points.

However, just at the moment they were about to get close.

“Roar!”

The Dragonman Lords roared to the sky, and the violent sound waves vibrated outwards, actually shaking these stealthed assassins directly out of the shadows!

At the same time, the Orc Warlords brandished their giant axes, accurately locking onto every revealed target.

The axe blades sliced through the air, bringing a dull whistle.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

15796! 16213! 14985!

The sounds of flesh tearing rang out one after another, accompanied by a large number of damage numbers floating up.

Those twelve Level 45 monsters that made ordinary Professionals tremble with fear couldn't even last a single breath in front of Lu Yin!

But after clearing the monsters this time, Lu Yin was in no hurry to step onto the forty-sixth floor.

His current Death Legion just happened to lack this type of damage-dealing soldier.

These high-burst assassin creatures could perfectly fill the gap in his legion.

“Arise...”

Using rare-grade soul of death, Lu Yin converted these monsters into Death Soldier.

【Phantom Assassin (Elite)】

【Level: 45】

【Strength: 480, Constitution: 4300】

【Agility: 650, Spirit: 5200】

【Skills: Phantom Ghost Step, Phantom Backstab, Demon Sealing Stab, Soul Rending Dance】

Phantom Assassins were a type of soul-like monster; they were elusive and blurry, as if merging with the surrounding darkness.

The advantage of their level gave the Phantom Assassins attributes no weaker than a Level 30 BOSS.

Lu Yin was very satisfied with the Phantom Assassins' attributes and skills.

It was well worth him using rare-grade soul of death to convert them.

The stairs to the forty-sixth floor extended downwards, and Lu Yin stepped up slowly.

His goal was to convert fifty Phantom Assassins to form an assassin squad with terrifying damage output.

With their presence, the legion's damage output would be pulled up by a direct notch.

After all, they could land critical hits and weak point damage; when stacked, their output would surely far exceed imagination.
