Chapter 391: 391

-8,987!

The tower shrieked in horror and shook again from the attack as its attempt to possess the trio came to a halt. Darius and Gunner gazed at Xela with shock, surprised that she dealt so much damage.

Xela herself was speechless, gazing at the gleaming bow in her hands as well as the mystical arrow that had returned to her palm after striking its target thanks to its return attribute.

Darius did the math quickly and discovered the equation for the damage had to be [50 Str x (189-50) Bow modifier x (300) Arrow modifier ÷ (232) END]

The reason the resulting damage was so high despite the tower's higher Endurance was because it did not have any other defense modifiers, unlike Darm of the past who had many of those which had lowered Xela's damage from the thousands to the hundreds.

With the Supreme System, it was crucial that one added as many modifiers as possible, no matter how small, for even 1% could change the entire calculation. In reality, such things would not entirely work using Faust's system, but everything had its consequence.

Darius had made this calculation in mere milliseconds, so while the tower was still crying in pain, he followed up by casting Lightning Bolt once more. This struck the tower for 12,530 points of damage and left the building with less than 10,000 points of health overall.

One more strike from either Xela and Gunner or Darius would be enough to end its existence. Sensing the danger to its life, the tower held nothing back as it burst out with all its power, hoping to kill these enemies before they killed it.

However, it was no use. Darius did not need to think to cast spells, he only had to will them. Despite his spirit falling under heavy oppression, he was still able to raise his staff and allow it to face the tower.

Immediately, the final attack was fired and upon striking the tower, it let out its final resounding screech that made the trio cover their ears as it broke down into a heap of rotten stone, cement, and iron.

[You have gained 1,707 EXP, etc.]

[Gunner has gained 1,707 EXP, etc.]

[Xela has gained 1,707 EXP, etc.]

Each of them gained enough to reach just the edge of their various level caps, which was impressive. However, Gunner and Darius smiled bitterly seeing that the experience was now shared three ways instead of two.

Xela was new to this, so she thought it was quite normal. Whatever the case, the trio had defeated the Master stage Tower of Death, but there was no treasure awaiting them.

From the moment Darius had Analyzed it, he had understood what kind of existence it must have been.

It was quite simple, what would a stationary hunter need the most? It was for prey to enter its territory so it could devour them.

With its hypnosis and possession abilities, it was not impossible for it to have grabbed a victim, instructing them to distribute those 'treasure maps'. This way the brave and the bold would be lured over to enter the tower in hopes of exceeding riches… only to find their final stop.

Heck, it had almost captured these three!

The thing that had saved them was not some extraordinary sense everyone had, nor even their impressive Intellect.

For this Tower of Death to have survived here and devour enough prey to reach Master stage... how could it so easily have been noticed?

The three of them had only felt a strange tingle in their minds that had warned them of danger, so Darius had attacked first to verify his suspicions, leading to the current outcome.

What was the cause of that tingle? What else could it be but the cheat-like spiritual senses that came with Luck above 50 points? Especially since Darius and Xela had a bloody 100 points of Luck.

It was solely due to the Supreme System that they had even ended up with some drops from the tower, mostly in the form of spiritual items.

Technically they very valuable due to their high Luck once again, just not to them specifically. As such, they were kept in the Inventory to be either sold in a shop or auction to outsiders or consumed by one of the students back in Safemoon.

Darius then teleported his group away from this location, heading towards another cache. It took them only 5 minutes of continuous jumps and resting to reach this location, which happened to be a huge hill-like mound of black sand.

Not interested in using their hands to dig through, Darius and Xela used their Psychomancy to blast the sand apart until they found that it covered a broken down metal carriage.

The trio shared a look before they remotely opened the carriage, in which they saw the skeletons of three people still wearing fine livery, slumped over the seats. A short investigation of the carriage revealed that there was a special mechanism like a safe which likely stored valuables of some sort, but it required a code.

Was this a product from Gravitas? Perhaps something from the past? Or was this what they used now?

Alternatively, this also looked like a special brand of carriages used by the Jintian Clan of Immortals from Pan who had a unique style for their artifact forging compared to other sects and clans.

They could have very well sold this carriage to another group and looking at the livery, it looked like the buyers might have originated from Fallon. Miranda popped out of the HoloBrace and entered the carriage's system, but determined that they were not compatible.

After all, the Immortals of the Jintian Clan might have something that looked like Gravitas like tech, but it fundamentally wasn't. It was a sort of alternative form of magitech but one that ran on something the Immortals called Spiritual Energy residing between the Heavens and Earth.

Darius did not know too much of the details of this strange form of energy, as the amount of information he had extracted from the restricted section had not covered this, unfortunately.

What he did understand was that the person who had made the original treasure map must have encountered this same issue and must have covered the carriages with sand to hide it.

That was how Darius got to be able to come here today. In fact, he was willing to bet that the maker of the map died in Pokterr, as they had not come back to claim it after all this time.

Alternatively, they could have survived and come here last year during the culling mission. They could very well have either powered up or brought friends to come this time for the treasure, there was no way to tell easily.
