Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System

Chapter 208: Against the Mimic Chests (1)



He knew it would make 100% more sense to use magic-orientated attacks instead of using his aura. He had read in the monster catalogue in the imperial library that most monsters were innately resistant to magic, but mimics were not.

On the contrary, mimics had enormous advantages over aura-type warriors because aura fuelled these monsters. Mimics made themselves more protected after every piece of aura they swallowed.

James knew this very well and that was why he had chosen to attack only with magic, or rather, he would try to accomplish something using the rune spells he had developed himself a little.

He had a feeling that the four beings standing in front of him were very powerful, but he still wanted to use this event to improve himself.

When he saw that the Mimics were not moving so much, he replaced the magic power he had collected on his finger with arcana power, or rather combined it, and then began to write a few rune letters on the ground.

With each rune letter he wrote, the mimics began to fidget, these four beings in front of James seemed to be sensitised to the sense of danger he gave them.

When he had finished drawing the runes, he had drawn exactly seven of them on the ground.

Immediately after this, the arcana energy was removed from his fingers and distributed throughout his body, and with that, the runes behind him began to glow one by one.

With this, James realised that his body was lighter, more magically sensitive and more energy sensitive.

He was using the high effect, or [buff], side of the rune art.

This rune art was usually seen in mages with healing abilities. Healing mages, who had perhaps the easiest and most dangerous grasp of arcana art, could buff themselves or their teammates with these runes, making boss monster raids much easier to win.

Of course, these mages were not rare, but they were rare enough to be considered rare.

When James realised that his power had increased as much as possible, he prepared to use poison elemental-based attacks.

However, now the mimics were starting to move as if they were tired of waiting for him to approach. A few tongues poked out of the huge chests and disgusting deep sounds began to emanate outwards.

"SKRIEEHHHKGHH!!!"

"QUALCHHH!!!"

"UGAUGGHLL!!!"

"HILLLSCHHKK!!!"

James was slightly disgusted as four separate voices rose from the chests, indeed the ear-splitting sounds were more distracting than necessary, but James knew how to defeat the monsters in front of him.

Suddenly he released the poison element outwards from his body. After only a few minutes, the entire room was filled with poison fumes a metre above the floor, a little more than half the height of James.

The room was so large that it could have been called a parlour, and James had managed to fill the huge room with a cloud of poison with the poison released from the elemental nucleus in his body.

After only fifteen or twenty seconds, the mimics' movements became strange and then one of the mimics flicked its tongue towards James.

James used his dark step ability at that moment and quickly dodged the attack coming towards him.

The mimic's tongue struck the floor of the room as James dodged it and the poison fumes were pushed back almost six metres, leaving behind an image of the floor of the room collapsing almost two metres downwards.

"The heck?" said James, he really understood the situation he was in, these bastards seemed to have the same level of attack power as the Goblin King.

He shouldn't have taken even one of the attacks, otherwise it would have been too severe a punishment.

The poison element seemed to work on the mimics themselves, but the power itself would not be enough.

James suddenly activated 8 Sacred Fire and with that, the colourful serpent formed again in his right arm.

James seemed to be glad that he would not have to constantly wait for the flames to merge to form the coloured fire itself, knowing full well that he could expend less energy and perform a greater function.

The fact that he was able to easily dodge the Mimic's attack meant that these monsters were much, much slower than he was. This meant that James' attack would have been much easier to deal with.

When the colourful snake wrapped around his right arm burst into flames, it was time for James to attack.

Suddenly he threw his arm forward and then a cloud of flame, almost fifteen metres wide, shot towards the mimics.

Each pulse of flame struck the mimics and the sounds of them writhing in pain echoed around the room.

James thought he had successfully wounded the mimics and perhaps brought them close to death, but at that very moment, four attacks came at him from within the fire cloud.

James was stunned by the speed of the attacks, thinking that he would not be able to dodge them this way, so he was forced to apply the time element.

Suddenly, he used his dark step ability again to dodge the attacks, and then instead of moving further away from the mimics, he lunged towards them.

The flames on his arm grew larger, and as the colour of the coloured flames turned a dark green, James attacked, using the poison's flame.

A spiralling attack tore through the flaming area, and then a system notification appeared in front of James:

[Legendary-Grade achievement earned!

Kill an ancestor-level Mimic Chest for the first time.

You get a chance to choose a card].

Even if James couldn't see through the cloud of flames he had pierced, he realised at that very moment that he had managed to kill at least one mimic.

It was clear that the poison had weakened them enough to destroy them, the pure and holy fires had made them deadly, and the flame of the poison had killed someone.

He could get out of here safely.
