My Passive Skills are Invincible! - Chapter 184

Chapter 184: The True Top Floor of the Tower of Challenges

After arriving at the entrance of the Tower of Challenges, Mike took a deep breath and looked at the top of the tower.

The weapon in his hand was the Umbrella of Meredith. Because he was not sure if he could resurrect after he died, he had to ensure 100% of his safety.

This was also the reason why he came here.

He wanted to confirm with the God of Death.

When it came to death, asking the God of Death was the most direct way. Moreover, as long as he could reach the 100th floor of the Tower of Challenges, he would definitely be able to see the God of Death.

Mike thought so.

After mentally preparing himself, Mike directly stepped into the Tower of Challenges.

The moment he walked in, Mike suddenly froze.

Something was wrong, but he could not pinpoint exactly what it was.

When he stood there and looked around for a few seconds, he finally understood what was wrong.

He had not been teleported in!

After all, the Tower of Challenges was a special dungeon.

Any dungeon would give an “entering another space” sensation upon entering.

However, this time, Mike did not have this sensation. He simply “walked in”.

Moreover, there was something wrong.

There were no monsters here.

Logically speaking, monsters would appear five seconds after players entered the Tower of Challenges.

After defeating these monsters, another batch of monsters would appear five seconds later. This was what the players referred to as “entering the next level”.

In fact, the players were only standing on the same level without moving at all. The stairs in the Tower of Challenges were just decorations for the players.

Though this time, the monsters did not appear.

Mike frowned slightly.

This was probably because this was a parallel Second World, not the game’s Second World.

Therefore, there were no “dungeons” or other settings related to the game.

However, one thing was certain, the God of Death could definitely be found here.

Because the God of Death had once said that he was the one who built the Tower of Challenges.

Mike looked at the decorative stairs and slowly walked over.

After stepping on the stairs, Mike successfully reached the second floor.

It was the same layout and decorations as the first floor, but there were still no monsters.

Mike had no choice but to continue walking upstairs.

This process was very boring, but what made Mike even more annoyed was that he could not walk too fast.

Because he was not sure if he could resurrect after he died, he had to be careful.

There was no telling if there would be any danger in the next second. After all, this was the God of Death’s territory.

Although Mike’s skills and weapons seemed invincible, Mike knew one thing very well.

In Second World, anything was possible.

No one could guarantee whether or not there would be a way for Mike to get hurt or even die.

Mike could not afford to gamble, so he had to be careful and be on the highest alert.

With Mike’s speed, it would not take long to get to the 100th floor from the first floor. It would only take a few minutes.

However, this time, Mike spent half an hour.

It was just to be safe.

When he reached the 100th floor, the stairs were gone.

This was the top of the tower!

Mike stood where he was and waited quietly.

If the God of Death was here, he would definitely show up.

A moment later, the purple magic circle appeared in the middle of the floor, and black gas gushed out from the center of the magic circle.

This scene made Mike feel relieved but also nervous.

He was relieved because the God of Death had indeed appeared, and he might be able to get the information he wanted.

He was nervous because he was facing a real god.

Moreover, it was the God of Death who had control over death.

Being uncertain about the resurrection mechanism, he had lost the confidence that he would definitely be resurrected. Mike would not be as confident as he was in the face of a god.

Soon, the God of Death appeared from the array as expected.

He looked at Mike with slight surprise and asked,

“Human? Why are you here?”

Sure enough, the God of Death did not recognize him either.

Mike was even more sure that he was in a parallel Second World.

He thought about his wording and said as calmly as possible,

“I’m here to look for you.”

“For me?” Arthas, who was wearing a black robe, let out a sinister sneer and asked, “Are you sure you’re here to look for me? Do you really know who I am?”

“The God of Death, Arthas,” Mike continued.

Hearing this answer, Arthas showed a surprised expression. Although there was no flesh on his face and only a skeleton, Mike could still feel Arthas’s surprise.

“As a human, I didn’t expect you to really know my identity.”

He slowly moved his feet and circled Mike, as if he wanted to size up the human in front of him.

In these few short seconds, Mike was very nervous.

He even felt his back sweating. His clothes were soaked in sweat and were stuck to his body, making him feel even more uncomfortable.

The God of Death laughed eerily and said,

“You’re an interesting guy.

“You said you came to find me, indicating that you knew that I’d be here from the beginning. A human actually knows about me, which is already very surprising to me.

“And the more interesting thing is…”

When the God of Death said this, he had already circled around Mike and returned in front of him.

He looked at Mike and laughed sinisterly.

“The more interesting thing is, although you came to find me, I can feel your nervousness.

“Human, you’re afraid of me, but you took the initiative to find me.

“This is very contradictory.”

Mike frowned.

He felt as if he had been seen through. He hated this feeling, but he had to lower his head in this situation.

“Yes, humans are contradictory.

“To tell you the truth, my current situation is not easy. I came here because I have some questions that I need to ask you.”

“Oh?” Arthas was surprised again.

“What questions do you have to ask me?”

A trace of curiosity appeared in his heart. At the same time, a huge sickle appeared in his hand.

“I can give you the opportunity to ask questions, but if your questions don’t interest me…

“You’d better pray that other gods will show up here to help you.”

The God of Death’s skeleton body suddenly emitted a murderous aura. This murderous aura caused the surrounding temperature to decrease by quite a bit, causing Mike to feel a little cold.

Looking at this fellow in front of him, Mike felt a little regretful.

He should not have provoked this fellow if he could not guarantee his own safety.

However, now that he had come this far, it was too late to turn back.

He could only clench his teeth and ask,

“I want to know if I can be resurrected after I die.

“And… how I can leave this world entirely.”
