Chapter 1275 Blasting through  

Eldrin's heart skipped a beat as he gaped at the humongous goblins but the next second everything was red. Fire! The entire forest was burning!

The beast from hell in the hide of a cute fox opened her mouth and watched in amusement as the world around them burnt to a husk.

Eldrin wasn't sure before but now after experiencing these flames in person he was sure of it. The beast definitely possessed a flame fragment of at least high grade.

He couldn't help but gaze at the four tails swishing behind her back and then another crazy thought crossed his mind. Perhaps more than one flame fragment?

No. That was impossible. He quickly put the thought away.

The fight was over before it even began and the goblins were no match to the notorious fox.

"Sweet Jesus holy mother of exp!" Immediately, a shriek sounded. Rey, Madan, and Lan Deming stood wide-eyed as an unbelievable amount of experience points rained on them. Clearly, there was no experience points suppression system in this Spire. Normally, when a group partied together for dungeon runs or boss raids, if the levels of the party members were lopsided then the experience points distribution would be abysmal. It was a sort of punishment for riding on the coattails of the strong. But here the complete opposite was happening. They were being rewarded for being leeches?!!

"Don't get too used to it!" Eldrin snorted. "It is not always a group trial. Just like the first one, we will all have to face our own demons eventually. So enjoy your luck while you can."

Despite the elf's shitty attitude, everyone was in high spirits as Rey, Madan, and Lan Deming had all finally crossed their level 100 bottleneck in one fell swoop. They had been stuck here forever and now they were able to make progress.

Even the tamed beasts enjoyed the rich experience points distribution. All the beasts were leveling up left and right.

Naturally, Luna and Eldrin did not gain anything from these kills and from the looks of it Dante had also not gained anything as the guy wore a disgusted expression. Luna sent the guy a growl which immediately made him shrivel up. The fox did not pay him any further attention. She licked her paws as if she were saying 'You are welcome' and her eyes darted around here and there.

Rey hurried over and collected all the loot from the goblins.

"Let's keep moving." Eldrin reminded them. This was not the time to really examine their loot as they were standing in the middle of a dense forest. More importantly, the guy they were relying on had gone poof.

The group started moving and they had taken only a few steps when they noticed something very weird. The forest around them suddenly seemed different. It looked like it was ransacked?! On top of that, they were also receiving more and more experience points continuously.

"What the hell?" Eldring opened and closed his mouth when a gust of wind assaulted them and Liam was back just like that.

"It's fine. We can leave in another couple of minutes. The quest is about clearing the trade route in the forest and it is almost done."

Huh? Eldrin was once again shocked.

And just like Liam said, two minutes later a glow covered all of them. Darkness followed as the familiar feeling of teleportation assaulted the group. The group then disappeared from the forests as if they had never existed in the first place, leaving behind only a big heap of natural resources, half-eaten and half-left behind.

Since their time inside the Spire was limited, they couldn't afford to spend anything more than the bare minimum time required. Moreover, the higher floors would have better quality items which they would be missing out on if they spent too much time on the lower floors.

The next floor was similarly straightforward. The group was teleported to the middle of a village that was being ransacked by a group of bandits.

Liam immediately summoned his soul army that quickly took care of not just the bandits fighting in the village but also those who were staying hidden in a cave nearby, clearing out the entire gang.

At the same time, they too ransacked the village and the neighboring places searching for anything and everything that was valuable and edible.

And when they were just about done, Luna appeared to show off her might. It looked like the little fox had made her own calculations after observing the first floor. So just before the quest was done, she simply walked over and gobbled up all the gathered edible resources.

When stared at by Liam, the fox sheepishly grinned. "We should not waste food, master."

Liam chuckled at the glutton as the group was once again covered by a golden glow, darkness following as they were teleported to their destination.

The next floor was of a similar level. This time they were teleported to a beast nest and they had to successfully escape from the nest.

This took less than a second as the soul army destroyed, plundered, and pillaged the place, the group leaving just as quickly as they dropped in. magic

Eldrin was sweating. What the hell was going on? This was the Spire of Ascension, not a random training field to be blasting through at this pace!

All his life he had heard about the Spire and had prepared for the Spire but never had he read one report of something like this happening! These people treated the floors of the Spire like some sort of 'all you can eat' festival.

Just the mere thought of this monstrous speed made him want to shit his pants. This was cheating, right? This was definitely cheating? It had to be!

His body was trembling. Both from fear and excitement. What has he gotten himself into?
