Chapter 231 The truth!
Orcs and the beastmen of the Endless Continent are not the same species.
The latter is an intelligent race with magical corridors.
The former is just a beast that only uses brute force.
The orcs have green skin all over their bodies, similar to the green-skinned goblins.
However, the orcs appear to be more sturdy and robust than the goblins, and their faces are less wretched and more ferocious.
In terms of brute force alone, orcs are even stronger than most beastman warriors, and their skin has a built-in [hardening] effect.
Very immune to physical attacks.
Therefore, a general strategy for [Orc Arena] usually requires the deployment of a mage team.
The front row is responsible for resisting attacks, and the back row is responsible for output.
Only by working in harmony can we quickly clear out these strong orcs.
If a player wants to play this dungeon solo, his strength must be far greater than that of the refreshed orcs.
Or use absolute brute force to suppress the orcs' charge.
Or bombard the orcs with absolute output power.
…
However, Su Bai's combat method is different from any of the above methods.
To be precise, it should be a combination of the two methods.
With [Unlimited Firepower], he can completely regard himself as a fully equipped elite team.
In addition, his four-dimensional attributes far surpass those of his peers, and his spell strength is boosted by the [Demon King]...
His firepower output is no weaker than that of an elite magician team of thousands of people.
With this kind of output ability, in most copies, he hardly needs to do anything else.
Just stand there and keep using skills, and clearing the dungeon is as easy as drinking water.
With the bonus of [Hero], he became a 360-degree hexagonal battle mage with no blind spots.
Even when it comes to clearing a dungeon where there are no shortcuts, his efficiency is still faster than elite teams of other races.
“Swish, swish, swish!”
“Swish, swish, swish!”
Water arrows and shadow knives attack alternately.
The water arrows easily penetrated the orcs' tough skin, then seeped into their bodies, exploding into countless sharp water thorns, crushing their fragile internal organs into pieces.
"roar!!!"
The severely injured orc became more ferocious instead of less ferocious. His speed increased again, and he swung the mace in his hand with great vigor.
Then they were hit head-on by the flying shadow knives. The sharp shadow knives pierced them from head to toe, densely packed together and turned them into a hornet's nest.
In this way, the orcs gradually slowed down their stabbing speed.
After staggering a few steps, he fell to the ground with a thump.
When the shadow knives on their bodies gradually dissipated, their large green faces full of holes were revealed.
You can't see if you die with your eyes open, because your eyeballs and everything else have been smashed into pieces, and you can't be deader than this.
Su Bai used both hands, the water arrow in his left hand and the shadow knife in his right hand.
The former is responsible for dealing explosive damage, while the latter is responsible for harvesting residual health.
He did not use [Carving the Boat to Look for the Sword].
Because there is no need.
These orcs are sitting ducks as they can't dodge or block. Instead of wasting time aiming at their afterimages, it's better to attack their real bodies directly.
There were a hundred orcs in the first wave.
Each subsequent wave increases by one hundred.
By the time the 100th wave of orcs attacked, there were tens of thousands of charging orcs on the scene at the same time.
They just raised their legs and stepped down, which was enough to shake the entire arena.
And when the giant orc that was more than ten meters tall appeared in the arena, the most enthusiastic cheers broke out in the empty audience seats.
【Kroll, the Orc King】
——This is the title of the floor owner.
Its level is 10 levels lower than Su Bai, but its strength is much higher than his.
You know, even the talented players from high-level races are completely crushed by Su Bai in terms of four-dimensional attributes.
In other words, the individual strength of this floor master can compete with the geniuses of higher races.
The amount of blood is incredibly thick.
Su Bai originally wanted to continue using [Water Arrow] and [Shadow Knife], and then combine them with [Chaos Rain of Fire] to continue to reap the battlefield.
But after seeing this tall creature that was more than ten meters tall, I gave up the idea.
A hint of excitement flashed in Su Bai's eyes, and he put the shadow knife back into the equipment bar.
"S-level, giant god body!"
With a light shout, there was a "crack" and a thin purple lightning flashed around him.
High-temperature gases were released from the body, quickly covering a large area of the battlefield.
Some orcs who didn't know the truth thought that he had stopped attacking and it was a good opportunity, so they continued to charge in the fog.
“Roar—”
The roar stopped abruptly.
A huge hand was holding a bunch of big green heads in the air.
The orcs' sturdy bodies swayed back and forth in the air. They stretched out their arms to break free from the control of the hands, but they could not even break their opponents' skin.
“Crack!”
Crisp cracking sounds were heard, and the big heads burst between the huge fingers like exploding balloons, and blue blood splattered everywhere.
"call--"
A strong gust of wind blew up at the scene, and all the high-temperature fog was dissipated.
Su Bai slowly withdrew his hand, and when he looked at the beast king again, he no longer needed to look up.
"roar!!!"
As if sensing the threat, the half-beast king Kroll roared at Su Bai and took the lead in attacking.
It stretched out its huge paw, crossed most of the field in three or two steps, and rushed towards Su Bai.
Su Bai snorted coldly, clenched his right fist, and the fist energy condensed instantly, and suddenly blasted out -
“Bang!”
The exploding fist energy immediately dealt a heavy blow to Kroll's big head.
The explosion made it dizzy and the force of the collision was weakened a lot.
Kill it while it's sick.
Su Bai gathered his strength again and threw an uppercut——
"boom!"
There was another sound of fist energy exploding.
The violent airflow blew away the ordinary orcs around them, and an open space was instantly "evaporated" around them.
The half-beast king, who was beaten back repeatedly by the force of the punch and the explosion, finally couldn't help but roar and rushed towards Su Bai regardless of anything.
The two huge monsters collided with each other, punching each other hard.
The orcs around them rushed forward again and again, and were thrown away by the punches again and again, or were dragged into the fight between the two and trampled to death...
Half an hour later——
[Ding! Congratulations! You have cleared the 125th floor of the Tower of God. The clearance time is: 20 hours, 23 minutes and 23 seconds]
[World Announcement: Blue Star Human Race player "Su Bai" successfully refreshed the record of the 126th floor of the Tower of God. ]
【world……】
Several prompts came into Su Bai's ears.
He stood among the piled-up orcs, his body covered with green blood, his right arm hanging limply.
Su Bai stretched out his left hand, touched his right shoulder, and lifted it up——
With a click, the dislocated right arm was reconnected.
He looked quietly at the devastated arena. The noise from the empty auditorium became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.
Those mottled seats and walls reappeared.
After finishing the book, Su Bai's eyes flashed with confusion.
Orcs seem to be a real race that existed in history.
It was once prosperous and glorious.
Then, like other races that disappeared in the long river of time, they eventually fell into decline...
There are actually quite a few copies like this in the Tower of God.
As a player in his previous life, Su Bai didn’t have much to think about the settings of these copies.
At this moment, the Tower of God became a reality, and an unusual understanding arose in his heart.
This was a question he had never thought about before.
If the Tower of God is just a game, then it would be of no use to him or any human being.
The monsters in the dungeon are actually no different from other races of creatures on the Endless Continent.
It’s just that one needs them to be eliminated, and the other needs them to be conquered.
This is especially true for Su Bai, who once reached the top of the Tower of God.
Some players of different races with strange looks are even more like monsters than the monsters in the dungeon.
He had felt this way more than once.
This is also the reason why he did not feel too uncomfortable hunting these alien players.
It's not because he is heartless and bloodthirsty.
Instead, he treated all of them as monsters in the game.
But what is worth pondering is, could it be that these monsters in the copy were once races that existed in the long river of history?
Otherwise, what is the difference between them and the current races?
Su Bai fell into deep thought.
This was a question he had never thought about in his previous life.
Perhaps there is no answer to this question, because none of the main quests or side quests he has gone through have mentioned the truth about the monsters in the dungeon.
The true origins of these monsters are also never mentioned.
Just like no race has ever mentioned the origin of the Tower of God.
From the time he traveled through time until now, Su Bai has felt both familiar and unfamiliar with the Tower of God.
All the plot developments, monster refreshes, character appearances, etc. were within his expectations.
However, when these things are presented to him, they often bring him new insights and new perspectives, and gradually change his worldview.
He suddenly recalled the day when he was summoned into the void by Guskidan.
A huge black tower stands in the endless universe, constantly devouring the surrounding galaxies.
That shocking scene is still imprinted in his mind and will last for a long time.
What is the truth behind the Tower of God?
The more he learned about the world, the more curious he became about the answer to this question.
After thinking for a long time, he was unable to summarize the known information in his mind and come up with a practical answer.
He shook his head, shook off these thoughts, stood in the sea of blood and corpses, looked into the distance, and said softly:
"It doesn't matter. One day, I will reveal all the truth about this tower."
