The rules of gravity on the stone paths kept changing with different levels of pressure. As a result, many people fell to the ground, and Philip finally saw the projected shadow that favonovel.com had seen earlier.
It was an unusually handsome middle-aged man dressed in an ancient robe with long hair draped over his shoulders. He stood on the top of the tower and looked down at Philip and the others with an attitude of looking at commoners.
“Everyone, you’ve finally passed the first test of the Archaic Underworld… This also means that you’re one step closer to your wish.”
No one paid any attention to this middle-aged man. Although favonovel.com looked like a high-and-mighty person, except for the prince of the Beelzebub royal family, almost no one entered this place willingly, so no one would be grateful to him.
Just like Philip, who was simply forced to enter this place.
“By the way, the tower in front of you hides the secret of Underworld City. As long as you can find the clues and come out alive, your wish will come true.”
While the middle-aged man was talking, Philip kept looking at him.
Philip did not believe that the secrets and clues of Underworld City were so easy to find. If it were, the Archaic Underworld would not force people to come in every year.
Many people in the crowd were full of dissatisfaction.
“I’m not interested in helping you find any clues and secrets of Underworld City. I want to leave this place. Let me out!”
Following the man’s shout, choruses of agreement rang. Commotion and curses intertwined.
That handsome middle-aged man kept smiling warmly. Suddenly, favonovel.com raised his eyebrow and pointed at the person who spoke first.
Philip suddenly felt a strange force on the stone path. With the appearance of that force, the person who complained first exploded into blood mist.
He seemed to have been squeezed by a huge force.
After seeing this scene, the middle-aged man said with a smile on his face, “So? Anyone else wants to leave now?”
Everyone stopped talking. No one wanted to provoke this man right now.
At everyone’s silence, the middle-aged man said with a smile, “Okay, everyone may enter the Underworld Tower now. Remember, there are seven floors in the Underworld Tower. You can only find the most important clues when you reach the highest floor. As for the price of opening each floor, it’ll cost the lives of half the people here… This is the survival of the fittest.”
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, favonovel.com disappeared from the top of the tower.
Immediately after, Philip saw that the tower seemed to expand infinitely, eventually swallowing all of them inside.
Philip asked softly, “Why do you seem as if you’ve not exhausted any energy at all?”
Raven chuckled and said, “Actually, there’s nothing strange about it. Alas, when I was about to fight the Great Augur to the death back then, I became just like him.”
Hearing this, Philip glanced at him.
