Tower Ascension

Chapter 91 - Against Tiger Lord



"I don\'t know the exact reason yet. But, I heard the admins from the lower floors especially Admin Hodder were the first admins that joined the tower with the previous or rather the first guardian. The power of admin is the same on every floor."

"It just some enjoys being at the lower floor while some likes being at the higher floor. Because the first group of people that entered the tower could barely climb the first ten or twenty floors, so higher-ups admins were the group of creatures recruited later."

"The floor zero and hundredth admins are the most powerful admins though. The admin who holds the most authority on the hundredth floor is the creature that joined the tower together with Hodder. But, he likes the upper floor, unlike Hodder."

"I think they are helping you so that you can become the guardian and remove the restriction on them. Because of the restriction, they are stuck in the tower. They are different than the climbers and other people. They can indeed leave the tower once they do their job for nearly millennium."

"Unfortunately, until then, the guardian vanished leaving those admins helpless. They could neither die nor leave the tower. Hence, they have been working for millions of years inside the tower. This might be the reason."

"They want you to gather all four keys and remove the restriction. Because just like the group of people doesn\'t want to kill you, they also do not know when the next person will arrive. And unlike these people, they do not care who gets the guardian title."

"Of course, they could just sit back and do nothing. But, if they do that, they will lose a chance to make you owe them a favor. I am not sure of anything. This is all the information I have obtained from my past chances."

Peter nodded his head and spoke "I also think of the same reason. Or, it might be the loyalty either. After all, upper floor admins aren\'t loyal anymore. They even take the side of other climbers."

"Maybe it is. But, aren\'t you a little skeptical about killing the entire city? I thought you would disagree but you didn\'t even raise the point." Sunny suspiciously glanced at him and asked.

"I have no reasons to disagree. In fact, I am quite happy about this. I needed a reason to slaughter some people and now I have got enough reason. Of course, I would still have slaughtered those people. But now, I have deeper reasons for doing it." Peter shook his head and answered with all honesty.

He didn\'t even feel like lying at this moment.

Sunny glanced at him with confusion and Peter continued "I have a quest to kill a thousand humans. This quest is quite hard since it is hard for me to kill humans without reason. If I have to choose between my family and the entire world, I would choose my family."

"And, the same thing goes for humans and other races. If I have to choose between humans and other races, I would choose humans. Humans might be bad, cruel, evil, but at the end of the day, I am also a human. I don\'t even kill the monsters without reason."

"I mean if I could improve on my own without killing, I would never kill. Why would I kill and stain my hands with blood if I can simply keep myself clean? Well, my logic is flawed and I don\'t I can stick to one decision for my entire life."

"This will change again and again. It will never stay the same. But, I will try to be good as I can. After all, I have no reason to be bad, right?"

Sunny stared at him with a stunned expression. She never thought Peter wanted to be a good guy but his reasons keep him killing more creatures. But, then she slowly calmed down since everyone has their own reason for killing.

Even if they are evil, they also have a reason to be evil.

"So, do you want to do it now? It\'s currently noon or do you want to wait till the night." Sunny turned her head at him and asked.

"Of course, I want to do it now. I don\'t need to wait until night and more importantly, I want to ask them to surrender. If they do surrender, I will keep them but if they don\'t then I will them." Peter nodded his head and answered.

Hearing his answer, Sunny tilts her head and stared at him with confusion.

"Are you sure? They might betray you when you tried to absorb Holy Dragon Luck. Don\'t forget it takes a month to absorb it!" Sunny warned him with a serious expression. She knew Peter wasn\'t kind-hearted but she still didn\'t understand why he wanted to conquer them now.

"Violence is never the first thing to consider. And, if I want to be a qualified leader, I must convince them with virtue."

Half an hour later,

Splash!

"I will give all of you half an hour to consider. If you choose to follow me, you shall live but if you don\'t then, you shall die." Peter stood in front of the crowd as he repeated his words. The sword energy spiked the person in front of generating fear in others\' eyes.

Hearing this, Sunny couldn\'t help but twitch her lips. She couldn\'t find a speck of virtue in his words. After they discussed convincing the crowd with virtue, they came out. Sunny also kicked out everyone from the hotel and due to her reputation, many people gathered in the middle of the city which was in front of her hotel.

Peter also discussed this with Zhao Ming and got his approval. According to Zhao Ming, he can easily face anyone below the thirty-three levels. And, he also suggested a way to control these masses.

It turns out Zhao Ming can attach a thread with their soul as long as they don\'t resist. Doing so, he can break that thread which will break their soul as long as he wants. This was a deadly ability but to perform it, the person must completely let go of his defenses against Zhao Ming.

From one perspective, it was good but from another perspective, it means it is Zhao Ming who will be remembered by everyone, not him. But according to Sunny, as long as he keeps generating more faith from Zhao Ming, he can absorb more than half of the faith that Zhao Ming gets.

This is also why he changed his approach. He no longer tried to convince the crowd with virtue.

"Who the hell do you think you are? If you have the courage face the seven lords of the Slaughter City. If you can convince them, you can convince me." Suddenly, one of the men from the crowd shouted.

"Yeah! Yeah! Convince the seven lords to convince us!"

"Convince the seven lords!"

At this moment, the voice rose even more. Hearing their words, Peter smirked and turned his head at Sunny. She nodded his head which means they will come up soon.

They didn\'t even need to wait before one of the Lord came. He was a bulky man wearing tiger skin. As he approached Peter, Sunny slightly leaned closer to Peter and introduced him "This is the Tiger Lord. He practices Seven Tigers Slaughtering Skill."

"His killing intent is immense."

Peter nodded his head as the Tiger Lord approached him. Tiger King\'s bulky body felt like a mountain in front of Peter\'s slender body. And, he was also taller than Peter.

"She said you want to conquer this city. She normally doesn\'t get involved in anything. But, she is now involved with you which means you are not ordinary."

At this moment, Tiger Lord burst out an immense killing intent and said "But if you want to conquer the city, you must defeat me."

Peter\'s stone hearts activates, completely canceling the crazy killing intent from Tiger lord. Two swords appeared on his hand as Peter stared at Tiger Lord and said "As you wish!"

Originally, he was planning to use Trident of Destruction. But, he also wanted to feel the strength of these seven lords. After all, they are among the peak of the Third Floor.

"Die!" Without waiting for a single second or warning, Tiger Lord clenched his fist and thrust it towards Peter. The power of the fist forced Sunny and Zhao Ming to retreat.

Peter hurriedly dodged the fist and swings his sword. But, the next second, Tiger Lord kicks his sword. His kick was so powerful that it made Peter\'s hands tremble for a moment.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, three swords appeared above Tiger Lord, each made with sword energy. Seeing these swords, Tiger Lords\' expression changed. He raised both of his hands and smashed his swords. But, those swords weren\'t ordinary.

When his fist touched his sword tips, he started bleeding.. But, this bleeding didn\'t stop from utterly destroying those swords.
