Chapter 2 Battle

Correct

 

 

It’s been raining all day. On the seat by the window in the library, Bai Yan was still focused on playing with his phone.

Correct

 

 

“Next, it will be Nightsaber’s first battle.”

Correct

 

 

Every operator had to complete a guide mission before they could officially join Babel Tower.

Correct

 

 Unlock this chapter.

 

Every operator had to complete a guide mission before they officially joined Babel Tower.

Correct

 

 

In Babel Tower, the main mission was to save the world. Other than that, there were daily missions, weekly missions, and side missions. Most of the enemies in the mission were Spawn, Cult, Stranger, Aliens, and foreign civilizations with beyond powers. There were all sorts of difficult and interesting ways to defeat them, giving players a sense of novelty.

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan chose Nightsaber and started the guide mission.

Correct

 

 

The screen displayed on the phone was very similar to games like Soul Knight and Dead Cells.

Correct

 

 

The pixel-styled female knight was fighting a huge monster with tentacles on the dark street.

Correct

 

 

“Face your sins!” Nightsaber shouted her exclusive battle lines and slowly pulled out her broadsword.

Correct

 

 

In the game, Nightsaber is a pure melee operator with two broadswords. Every attack she makes would augment the mysterious power, Demon Knight Blood—Dark, from her bloodline.

Correct

 

 

The monster roared and released a large number of tentacles!

Correct

 

 

Its strength far exceeded that of Nightsaber. Bai Yan could only control her fight while running. He didn’t dare to be greedy.

Correct

 

 

Nightsaber was newly summoned and had yet to invest any resources into training. Although her aptitude was at the top level, she was not that strong now.&

Correct

 

 

“The starting operator’s value is really bad. It’s really hard to play from the beginning.”

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan’s operation was very good. Through frequent movements and jumps, Nightsaber dodged the tentacles from mid-range attacks again and again.

Correct

 

 

Every time Nightsaber avoided the attack, Bai Yan would immediately control her to slash the monster and then run away.

Correct

 

 

As long as she kept the distance skillfully, even if there was a huge difference in attributes, he was confident that he could kill the monster bit by bit.

Correct

 

 

However, Bai Yan accidentally missed one of his attacks, causing Nightsaber to be heavily hit by the monster’s black tentacles.

Correct

 

 

The phone buzzed.

Correct

 

 

Nightsaber on the screen cracked, and her body shattered into red mosaics.

Correct

 

 

“Don’t forget me…” A young girl’s cry came from the phone.

Correct

 

 

There were the last words of core operators when they were defeated.

Correct

 

 

Babel Tower was very difficult, and Bai Yan was already prepared mentally. He shook his head and took a sip of water to calm himself down.

Correct

 

 

He didn’t like drinks.

Correct

 

 

“Save” or “New game”

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan immediately clicked on “New game.”

Correct

 

 

If he chooses “Save,” Nightsaber’s status would turn into death. He would have to invest lots of resources to revive her.

Correct

 

 

That would be a loss.

Correct

 

 

The proper choice was to start a new game, but it was impossible to start again indefinitely because the time limit for each mission was one hour.

Correct

 

 

If the completion time was over, the mission status would automatically be preserved.

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan controlled Nightsaber to fight again and again.

Correct

 

 

The pixel figure flew up and down on the screen. She dodged and attacked repeatedly until she was hit and came back.

Correct

 

 

Again and again

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan was fully focused. He was becoming more and more familiar with the monster’s attack patterns. Relying on his fast reaction and proficiency, Nighsaber had finally succeed in the six time attempt.

Correct

 

 

The tiny pixel figure moved around and slashed at the monster, killing the monster at the last moment.

Correct

 

 

He had successfully fought a perfect battle.

Correct

 

 

Nightsaber was unharmed. This time, she was not even hit once.

Correct

 

 

The monster howled in pain as it fell, its massive body gradually turned into ashes.

Correct

 

 

The rain fell on the sword, and lightning streaked across the sky, turning the darkness into day.

Correct

 

 

On the screen, Nightsaber slowly put away her sword and said, “Mission accomplished.”

Correct

 

 

“In the final settlement, you look very handsome, but you’ve actually died five times.”

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan heaved a sigh of relief and saw the following game notification.

Correct

 

 

“First victory, Babel Tower Legendary Point+50.”

Correct

 

 

“You have successfully collected the remains of the new monster, Gravity of Darkness. You can invest resources to develop new mutation techniques.”

Correct

 

 

“Newbie Reward: Mystical Power—Deep Blue World.”

Correct

 

 

The battle had dragged on for too long. Bai Yan was a little exhausted.

Correct

 

 

The newbie reward was usually not bad. He was lucky to obtain Deep Blue World. In his impression, it was a Mystical Power that was strong in the game.

Correct

 

 

“Seems like I’m kind of lucky.”

Correct

 

 

Bai Yan glanced at Nightsaber, who was standing at her original spot with full HP and stretched out his arms again.

Correct

 

 

He took out the Mystical Power obtained from the mission and directly used it on Nightsaber in the operators list.

Correct

 

 

It was a useful item that could significantly increase Nightsaber’s early-stage strength.

Correct

 

 

Although he felt that Nightsaber’s initial stats were too weak, Bai Yan decided to invest the Deep Blue World in her according to her high growth.

Correct

 

 

And most importantly, players had to save the game manually.

Correct

 

 

The game world in Babel Tower was dynamic. If the player didn’t save, the story would go ahead automatically. It wouldn’t wait for the player to complete it.

Correct

 

 

If Bai Yan didn’t save the game here and left it alone, Nightsaber would fight Gravity of Darkness a few hours later.

Correct

 

 

Based on Bai Yan’s experience, such a situation would likely end with Nightsaber’s death.

Correct

 

 

“Save.”

Correct

 

 

--

Correct

 

 

[You have been chosen by fate, Nightsaber.] A young man’s voice sounded in her mind.

Correct

 

 

Who was it?

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling’s eyes were filled with confusion and fear. She took steps forward and walked out of the alley like a marionette.

Correct

 

 

Where am I going?

Correct

 

 

The young girl slowly walked to the street. A huge fear surged from the depths of her heart. She could not control her body or even speak. She was followed by the male voice in her mind. She came to this path like a puppet.

Correct

 

 

The young male voice in her mind sounded again.

Correct

 

 

[Stand by, Nightsaber.]

Correct

 

 

"Yes, my master."

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling answered. A white mask suddenly appeared on her face.

Correct

 

 

She couldn’t control her facial muscles at all. The sound she made was extremely hollow as if she had no soul.

Correct

 

 

The girl involuntarily crouched down and slowly got down on one knee. She lowered her head and waited in the middle of the street with huge shame.

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling’s heart was filled with fear and shame. She was a famous knight in Tatsumi City and the only successor of a legendary family. She was noble, elegant, and powerful.

Correct

 

 

But now, she was like an animal on display, an obedient slave. She felt that all of this was too ridiculous and even thought that she had been trapped in an illusion.

Correct

 

 

Who was it?

Correct

 

 

The one can control her without anyone noticing. Could it be someone from the Eye of Empire, the Heart of Death, or the String of Time? Could it be some of the powerful figures, Scarlet Moon Queen or the Pastor?

Correct

 

 

There was too little information to guess.

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling could vaguely sense that the person controlling her might be a greater and more mysterious existence.

Correct

 

 

What’s more, what was she waiting for?

Correct

 

 

The ground trembled.

Correct

 

 

The cracks on the ground of the street continued to extend, and tentacles wrapped around each other crawled out from the ground. Ferocious black pupils slowly opened up on every tentacle.

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling’s expression was extremely grave as her breathing quickened.

Correct

 

 

“The Spawn?”

Correct

 

 

She definitely couldn’t defeat it!

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling estimated the difference in strength soon.

Correct

 

 

Her strength was far lower than the monster, as long as she was hit by it, she could die. So she only had a slight chance of winning with her agility. She had to escape!

Correct

 

 

Or it would be too late!

Correct

 

 

However, she stood up obediently and slowly pulled out the black sword on her back.

Correct

 

 

Her lips under the mask moved again. “Face your sins!”

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling was close to despair. She wanted to shout, but she couldn’t control her mouth. Shit! She really wanted to stuff her mouth!

Correct

 

 

“Awwww!”

Correct

 

 

The evil Gravity of Darkness produced a roar that almost split the sky. Invisible sound waves swept across the entire street on the rainy night, shattering the nearby glass. The tentacles shot through the rain like black fists.

Correct

 

 

She knew very well that she would be severely injured if she was hit once.

Correct

 

 

She had to dodge!

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling tried her best to move! And she made it!

Correct

 

 

However, she soon realized she couldn't control her body.

Correct

 

 

The girl in black flew up and down like a butterfly, easily dodging the attack of the tentacles.

Correct

 

 

She stepped on the tentacles and slashed at the huge monster. Even though each tentacle had a terrifying offensive power and could easily crush vehicles and destroy the streets, it was unable to touch Mu Ling.

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling was astonished that her body had become stronger than before.

Correct

 

 

Who was the one manipulating her?

Correct

 

 

Once, twice, ten times. Dozens of slashes pierced through the monster.

Correct

 

 

The monster suffered increasingly heavy injuries. It tried its best to roar, but it was unable to counterattack effectively.

Correct

 

 

The huge tentacle collapsed with a loud crash, splashing water everywhere. The flood-like dark red blood surged to the ground and contaminated the rainwater. It began to bubble and boil.

Correct

 

 

Pieces of flesh and limbs were still rolling and squirming on the ground. After a long time, it completely lost vitality.

Correct

 

 

The black broadsword slowly retracted. The slender girl clutched her chest as her body swayed, barely managing to stand.

Correct

 

 

“Mission accomplished.” Once again, she heard her own voice, indifferent and calm.

Correct

 

 

A strange black mist rose from the ground and slowly engulfed the monster’s body that was still alive before disappearing.

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling was extremely shocked and had yet to recover.

Correct

 

 

She had defeated a strong enemy she had never faced before!

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling didn’t think that she could survive. Even now, she still thought it unbelievable.

Correct

 

 

Tonight, she seemed to have the help of a god in battle.

Correct

 

 

But was this god evil or good?

Correct

 

 

Anyway, the mission was completed.

Correct

 

 

Could I go?

Correct

 

 

Mu Ling’s heart was filled with fear. It was still acceptable if she was only manipulated for a moment.

Correct

 

 

What if she becomes a puppet and slave for the rest of her life?

Correct

 

 

Even suicide was not possible.

Correct

 

 

The emotionless voice sounded in her mind again, making her tremble.

Correct

 

 

[I’m the Savior.]

Correct

 

 

[We do everything to save the past and future for this world that is about to collapse.]

Correct

 

 

Nightsaber.

Correct

 

 

[From today onwards, you’re an operator of Babel Tower.]
