Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards-Chapter 542 - 370: Entering the Tower

The sky was nearly completely dark, but fortunately, it was a cloudless night, and the starlight provided some brightness.

In the Shadow Desert, many menacing shadow monsters roamed under the cover of night, making this already dangerous area during the day even more terrifying.

But there were people who weren’t afraid of this danger and insisted on challenging it.

In an open area of the desert, a strange flat surface slowly emerged on the ground as if a sheet of paper was appearing from the sand, and then two-dimensional existences protruded from this "paper," forming two three-dimensional shadows, which quickly turned completely real.

"Holy Domain!"

One of the thin figures immediately uttered a low command, releasing a hemispherical light shield that enveloped themselves and their companion inside. With this unnatural brightness, it was not difficult to recognize that they were the White Mage and female Warrior who had escaped from the dungeon Boss not long ago.

"William, must we hide in this dangerous desert? Heading north seems like a better choice."

Inside the light shield, the strong-bodied white female Warrior observed the surrounding gathering shadows and said somewhat irritably. She wasn’t the controller of the previous escape spell, so she was forcibly brought here, and thus she was dissatisfied with the Mage’s choice of hiding place, believing going to the better northern environment was a better option.

"I’ve investigated; the north is full of enemies with large helicopters and combat mechas searching for us. If we go there, we definitely won’t be able to hide for long. On the contrary, while this desert is dangerous, it’s easier than directly facing those enemies. Trust me, it’s currently the best hiding place."

The thin white Mage responded to the Warrior’s question while holding the magic staff to maintain the light shield skill he released. As the surrounding menacing shadows swarmed, this seemingly fragile light shield firmly repelled them outside.

"So what do we do now? Fight these shadow monsters all night and endure for a month?"

The Warrior understood her companion’s thoughts after he finished speaking. She started thinking of how to survive the following month. From the current perspective, the survival difficulty of this instance was very high, with enemies appearing almost at the beginning and having both quantity and quality advantages over players, making their future worrisome.

"Let’s search for now. If there’s a ready-made shelter, we’ll move in temporarily. If not, we’ll use magic to build one, but we need to choose wisely where to build it. This desert should have relatively safer areas."

He responded while supporting the light shield around them to resist the various terrifying shadows gathering outside and releasing Investigation Skill to find a suitable hiding place to survive the night in this desert.

Previously, using special means to escape, he transferred deep into this desert in one go to reduce the chance of being traced by enemies. Thus, he believed as long as they took proper precautions against monsters, there was no worry about being found by enemies tonight; they had plenty of time.

After a short while, the thin white Mage suddenly exclaimed while carefully probing:

"Nova! I found a light appearing in the distance! It seems to be a building! A short tower!"

Within the light shield, he held the magic staff with an expression of disbelief, clearly not expecting to discover such a significant existence shortly after releasing Investigation Skill. This was entirely beyond his imagination.

"A tower? Still emitting light? William, are you hallucinating, or do you find this idea interesting?"

The strong-bodied white female Warrior listened skeptically, thinking her companion was joking to lighten the mood. After all, a tower emitting light in this eerie desert seemed impossible and more bizarre than the desert itself.

"I’m not lying to you! Look for yourself if you don’t believe me!"

Seeing this, the white Mage shared his sensory information with the Warrior using magic, transferring the data obtained through wide-area Investigation Skill.

The Warrior immediately saw that in the desert far from their location, there really was an unmistakable bright spot. As the perspective of the Investigation Skill elevated and zoomed in, the source of the light became gradually clearer.

It seemed to be a relatively short spire, its entire structure very uncoordinated, as if forcibly flattened by someone. As the view got closer, it was clear it was divided into three layers, the topmost layer having an ornate arched window facing them. However, seeing inside the window was impossible; only the light was confirmed to emanate from within.

"OH! GOD! William! That’s a fantastic place! I feel it must be this instance’s hidden location! We might have found a shortcut to clear it!"

The white female Warrior named Zakharova immediately became more excited than her companion William because they had played countless instances, knowing well the tendency for instances to contain hidden content encouraging player exploration. Today they were fortunate enough to enjoy this stroke of luck.

"I think so too... but we still need to be cautious, as it could be a trap in the instance."

The thin white Mage William nodded after listening, casting Acceleration Skill for himself and his companion, and headed toward the target location under the cover of the light shield.
