Chapter 309: Chapter 309: The Growing Fury of the White Tower
After freeing herself from the spatial distortion, the Mechanical Tutor carefully assessed her surroundings. She was seething with rage. She felt she had missed a perfect opportunity.
“I should never have been so careless. If I hadn’t let my guard down, I could have wiped out those damn intruders,” the Mechanical Tutor fumed, her anger palpable.
Once she finished speaking, her gaze shifted to the Dark Core lying nearby. Using her command over High-Dimensional Data, she neutralized all the dark powers within the Dark Core. Now, it was completely powerless. However, the Mechanical Tutor couldn’t shake the feeling that the Dark Core was an important item.
After a brief moment of contemplation, she decided to take the Dark Core with her as she returned to the upper levels of the Tower of Exile. Jeremy and his companions had undoubtedly made their way there, and perhaps carrying the Dark Core might aid her in tracking them down.
The Mechanical Tutor, using High-Dimensional Data, swiftly ascended to the upper levels of the Tower of Exile. She did not have the authority to directly meet with [the White Tower]. Instead, she had to report to her superior first.
The Mechanical Tutor’s immediate superior was the Empress of Machines, who oversaw all the mechanical monsters. The Empress resided in the Mechanical Palace, located in the upper levels of the Tower of Exile. If the Mechanical Tutor wanted to meet with [the White Tower], she would first need to pass through the Mechanical Palace.
Upon arriving at the Mechanical Palace, the Mechanical Tutor was taken aback by the sight of the mechanical monsters within. All of them seemed to be in a state of panic. The Mechanical Tutor stopped one of the service robots in its tracks.
“Why is everyone so frantic? Is Her Majesty the Empress angry? What has happened?” she demanded.
The service robot did not provide an answer. It merely shook its head before hurrying away. The unusual behavior of these service robots puzzled the Mechanical Tutor, but there was little she could do. Having already come this far, she knew she needed to press on and meet the Empress.
When the Mechanical Tutor finally stood before the Empress of Machines, the reason for the panic among the mechanical beings became clear.
“The intruders were not eliminated! All of our efforts have failed! The intruders have even infiltrated the upper levels of the Tower of Exile! The great deity is furious!”
When the Mechanical Empress saw the Mechanical Tutor, she spoke bluntly. It wasn’t just the Mechanical Tutor, sent by the Mechanical Empress, who had gone to the middle levels of the Tower of Exile to eliminate Jeremy and his companions. Two other rivals of the Empress had also dispatched their own subordinates to the middle levels.
However, all of them had failed. Jeremy and his group not only evaded the Mechanical Tutor’s attacks but also successfully avoided the other mechanical monsters. Now, [the White Tower] was even more furious than before, viewing its subordinates as nothing more than utter failures.
Just a short time ago, [the White Tower] had issued a clear directive to all its subordinates: Jeremy and his group must be swiftly eliminated. Under no circumstances could they be allowed to approach [the White Tower]’s location.
“Your Majesty Empress, since the great deity has given such explicit orders, shouldn’t we simply follow them? Why are you so worried now? If the intruders have already reached the upper levels of the Tower of Exile, doesn’t that present us with a perfect opportunity to wipe them out? It seems to me that eliminating them in the upper levels is far better than playing cat and mouse with them in the middle and lower levels,” the Mechanical Tutor stated, expressing her honest thoughts.

The Mechanical Empress shook her head.
“Under normal circumstances, you’d be right. But just moments ago, I tried using my control over High-Dimensional Data to locate the intruders’ general whereabouts. However, my High-Dimensional Data couldn’t detect any trace of them. This means we’ll have to keep playing hide-and-seek with them in the upper levels.”
The Empress’s words left the Mechanical Tutor stunned. She hadn’t expected that even the Empress, whom she greatly admired, couldn’t use her High-Dimensional Data to find Jeremy and his group. This could only mean that their movements were highly concealed.
“Your Majesty, what do you suggest we do next?” the Mechanical Tutor asked.
“Your next task is quite simple: find the intruders as quickly as possible. I know you once detected the DNA of one of them. Use that as your lead to track them down!” the Mechanical Empress ordered.
With her mission clearly defined, the Mechanical Tutor swiftly left the Mechanical Palace, ready to hunt down the intruders.
Not long after the Mechanical Tutor left, a mechanical monster, leaning on a cane and covered with numerous outdated mechanical devices, emerged from the shadows.
“Do you believe everything she said? Do you think she has concealed any information?” the Mechanical Empress asked directly, turning to the mechanical monster that had stepped out.
“I believe the Mechanical Tutor has done her best. Her power is indeed limited, and she didn’t seem to be at a disadvantage during the battle,” the monster replied.
Hearing this, the Mechanical Empress sighed with frustration.
“My subordinate may not have been overpowered in the fight, but that doesn’t help us eliminate the intruders. I can’t afford for my rivals to be the ones to capture them first. You promised me that before I locate the intruders, none of my competitors would. Does that promise still stand?”
“Of course, it does! I can guarantee that your rivals won’t find the intruders. In fact, it’s likely that even the great deity himself won’t be able to pinpoint their exact location immediately,” the mechanical monster reassured.
With this clear assurance, the Mechanical Empress finally relaxed.
“Good! Even if I can’t locate the intruders myself, I won’t allow my rivals to find them either. No matter what, the great deity will eventually destroy them.”
The Mechanical Empress’s mindset was simple. She didn’t care if her own subordinates succeeded; what mattered to her was that her rivals didn’t succeed either. As long as her competitors failed to capture the intruders, it wasn’t a problem in her eyes.
The Empress wasn’t concerned about gaining victory—her only concern was preventing her rivals from getting too much credit. As long as her rivals didn’t accumulate more accomplishments, she had nothing to worry about. After all, the Empress and her competitors were merely vying for a larger share of the High-Dimensional Data that [the White Tower] allocated to them. They didn’t need any other source of power.
This, in fact, was the very reason [the White Tower] was so enraged. The deity had sensed the ulterior motives of his subordinates, but there was little he could do about it. For now, [the White Tower] had to remain at the top of the Tower of Exile, maintaining the seal that kept the tower secure.
[The White Tower], after all, was only one of the weaker members involved in the planning of the *Apocalypse Game*, and it could not disobey the commands given by [Fool]. While the subordinates of [The White Tower] were taking action, Jeremy and his group continued their rapid ascent in the upper levels of the Tower of Exile.
Jeremy had boldly opened a portal leading directly to the upper layers of the Tower of Exile. This risky move granted them a significant advantage. They now found themselves in a highly concealed area of the upper levels, where they could take a hidden path leading directly to the top of the Tower of Exile.
Moreover, Jeremy had, with the God of War’s assistance, successfully concealed their presence.
“It seems your strategy was indeed the right one. We’ve been here for some time, and we haven’t encountered any mechanical monsters. This proves that they have no way of tracking our movements,” the God of War said with a smile, clearly pleased with the current situation.
The God of War was quite satisfied with how things were unfolding. He believed that as long as they reached the top of the Tower of Exile, he would have a chance to exact his revenge on [The White Tower].
Even Ritchie, though not as optimistic as the God of War, allowed himself a small smile. He felt that the situation was indeed much better than before.
However, of the three, only Jeremy remained cautious. With a hint of concern, he spoke up.
“It’s not time to celebrate just yet! Although the mechanical monsters haven’t found us, that’s only temporary. There are many mechanical monsters in the upper levels of the Tower of Exile. It’s only a matter of time before they track us down. We need to get as close to the top of the tower as possible before they discover us. I suspect that when we confront [The White Tower], the mechanical monsters won’t be able to interfere.”
Jeremy was already preparing for the final battle in the Tower of Exile. His words served as a reminder to both the God of War and Ritchie. Although their progress had been smooth so far, ultimate victory was far from guaranteed.
After all, their true opponent was one of the architects of the *Apocalypse Game*. Even if [The White Tower] was relatively weak, it would still not be an easy foe to defeat.
Moreover, they were well aware that [The White Tower] was merely a caretaker of the Tower of Exile. The true owner of the tower was none other than [Fool]. In the final battle, there was a real possibility that [Fool] might descend directly.
