Just call me Thor

Summer camp, Area C.

Sitting in the classroom, Mike pondered his upcoming plans.

"According to Apollo's arrangement, I'm going to the Ninth Abyss in three days. I need to get as strong as possible before then."

Mike had three chances to challenge the Tower of Truth in these three days.

Tonight, he would take Ace and Afterskin through the 29th floor, easily securing an SSSS-level rating.

Tomorrow night, he would casually go for the SSSSS rating on the 30th floor.

As for the day after tomorrow, how many floors he can reach will depend on fate.

After clearing the 28th floor last night, Mike's level had slightly increased. He was now level 314.159.

In addition to his level, he also needed to keep up with the corresponding resources and equipment.

Just like physical development, not only did he need to grow tall, but he also needed to grow strong. With proper nutrition, his cock could develop to be bigger and thicker.

Force of Nature, Nightmare's Breeze, Thunderclap Hammer...

In terms of equipment, Mike was already maxed out, with no room for further improvement.

Even Master Fool had no remaining value for Mike to exploit.

Master Fool was still crafting an SSS-level armor for Mike, but he wasn't in a hurry to receive it.

Once it was finished, the deal between Master Fool and Mike would be complete, and according to their agreement, he would have to send her back to the abyss.

How could Mike let such a top-notch master smith leave so easily?

Mike looked around. The only thing he could still improve was Thor's Sea.

"The wind element materials haven't been fused yet..."

Mike calculated that Thor's Sea naturally required the cultivation of all six elements, he couldn't neglect any of them.

However, with the Heart of the Ocean and Shadow Source, Mike didn't need to worry about materials for those two elements.

"I have 1.3 million Lord merits in cash, of which 310,000 is for Ace's materials. I only have 990,000 that truly belongs to me."

Thinking of this, Mike sent an order to the Mystic Market, purchasing the wind element materials needed for Thor's Sea.

Foreskin quickly replied with a suffocating price:

"190,000 Lord merits."

Mike took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "I earned over 600,000 from Ace, it's fine... Just think of it as spending Ace's money, then it won't hurt so much..."

Ace, sitting beside him, heard Mike's muttering and slowly typed a question mark.

This guy was asking for a beating again, wasn't he?!

Ace thought for a moment. He probably couldn't beat Mike right now.

He would endure!

After swiping his card for 190,000, Mike's paper wealth drastically shrunk, leaving only 1.11 million Lord merits.

With the wind element materials, once Thor's Sea was fully fused, Mike's Thor would finally complete its first stage, laying a solid "foundation"!

Although his starting point was already the end point that many people could never reach in their lifetime.

Just for Thor's Sea alone, Mike had already invested over a million Lord merits!

In the foreseeable future, Mike would only invest even more.

Forcing himself to stop thinking about it to avoid losing control, Mike started thinking about something happy.

For example, the tournament with the Nightmare corps in three days.

For this tournament, a special chat group was created in the communication crystal.

[Just call me Fourth Bro]

The admin, needless to say, was Mike.

Taking out his communication crystal, Mike now had two accounts.

One was the account with the codename Deathsinger.

The other was a high-permission administrator account that Shadow Nine had set up for him in advance.

Before preparing to go to the Supreme Abyssal, Shadow Nine had arranged everything, and the communication crystal he gave Mike was different from everyone else's.

However, Mike glanced at his administrator account and immediately posted a question in the chat group.

Good Boy (Admin): What the hell is this "ID"? Can someone tell me how to change this "ID"?

Stunning Woman (Shadow One): Fourth Bro, hello!

Bad Woman (Shadow Two): Hehehe!

Bad Man (Shadow Two): Fourth Bro, I want to snitch! Bad Woman went to the men's restroom again.

Untitled (Shadow Three): Fourth Bro, hello!

...

Mike glanced at his Shadow Three in the Guardian Shadow. He didn't even have a group nickname?

This wouldn't do.

Although his real name couldn't be confirmed yet, couldn't he just make up a nickname?

Ignoring Shadow Two, who was having his usual episode, Mike briefly communicated with Shadow Four and Shadow Five in the group.

The tournament was confirmed, but there were still many details to be finalized.

For example, the two sides would compete in five tiers. Would it be one-on-one duels or group fights?

One-on-one duels would obviously favor the Guardian Shadow.

The Guardian Shadows who accompanied the Lone Wolves were mostly individual fighters, their combat prowess honed to the extreme.

The Nightmare corps, on the other hand, not only had outstanding individual strength but also various tactical combinations.

In the end, both sides agreed that the Soldier tier would mainly consist of arena matches, with six arenas set up, one of which would be the main arena.

Defending the main arena would grant a 10% share of the benefits.

Each of the other arenas would grant a 2% share of the benefits.

In other words, the outcome of the Soldier tier tournament would determine a 20% share!

The General, Chief, Lord, and Ultimate Lord tiers would also each determine a 20% share!

After finalizing the format for the Soldier tier tournament, the General tier was also decided, also using an arena format.

The Chief tier was required to be a team battle.

Each side would send out 50 Chiefs, with strict requirements on combat power: a maximum of three Peak Chiefs, no more than ten Nine-Star Chiefs...

There would be a total of 5 team battles!

Moreover, the team battles weren't just about comparing combat power, there were special victory conditions.

For example, escorting a special target to the finish line, or infiltrating a certain location to plant explosives...

As for the Lord and Ultimate Lord tiers, both sides hadn't decided on the format yet.

At this point, the top three of the Guardian Shadow became excited.

Stunning Woman (Shadow One): Fourth Bro, I'm willing to fight for the Guardian Shadow in the Ultimate Lord tier!

Bad Man (Shadow Two): We also want to contribute to the Guardian Shadow!

Untitled (Shadow Three): I'll listen to Fourth Bro. Just saying, Bad Man would be useless even if he became an Ultimate Lord.

Bad Woman (Shadow Two): Well said!

Bad Man (Shadow Two): Untitled, come out here! Bad Woman wants to duel you to the death!

...

Looking at the chaos in the group, Mike facepalmed slightly. What kind of weirdos had Shadow Nine left him with?

If they fought in the Ultimate Lord tier, it meant that the top three of the Guardian Shadow would have a chance to break through to level 990!

Mike knew their thoughts clearly. They weren't really eager to fight for the Guardian Shadow, they just wanted to break through!

By now, Mike had figured out something.

These people's breakthroughs were most likely restricted by him, or rather, by the Shadow Sigil in his possession!

Without Mike's permission, they wouldn't have a chance to break through even if they wanted to.

Thinking of this, Mike typed another message.

Good Boy (Admin): Does the Nightmare corps have any Ultimate Lords?

Scholar (Shadow Four): Yes, Ultimates Birch, level 992.

Shadow Four briefly explained Ultimates Birch's information, and Mike had a good idea.

In any case, this battle would be level 994 against level 992.

The advantage was on his side!

Good Boy (Admin): Okay, I understand. There's an additional condition for the Ultimate Lord battle.

Good Boy (Admin): It must be held inside the Tower of Truth.

After a while, Shadow Four replied.

Scholar (Shadow Four): Ultimates Birch agrees.
