End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 310

Chapter 310: Chapter 310: The Tunnel Leading to the Top
Both the God of War and Ritchie strongly agreed with Jeremy’s judgment.

Thus, under Jeremy’s guidance, they began their direct ascent to the top of the Tower of Exile. Although those affected by the pandemic could temporarily evade the detection of the mechanical monsters, Jeremy knew that the closer they got to the top of the Tower of Exile, the higher the likelihood of being discovered by these mechanical creatures would become.

To prepare for this, Jeremy not only readied himself for battle but also used his talent as The King of Time and Space to shield the spatial fluctuations around him. This would help delay the moment when they would be detected by the mechanical monsters.

The group followed a narrow path that led toward the top of the Tower of Exile. Before long, they arrived at a large, tightly closed door. The door was adorned with symbols resembling circuits. From these symbols, Jeremy could tell that the door contained a vast amount of High-Dimensional Data. This indicated that they were very close to the top of the Tower of Exile.

Reaching this point assured them they were on the right path.

The God of War stepped forward and approached the door. He raised his weapon and lightly tapped on the door to test it. A hollow, ethereal echo sounded from behind the door.

“It seems there’s nothing on the other side. Maybe we should just forcefully destroy this door,” the God of War suggested, stepping back as he prepared to use his weapon to break through the door.

Jeremy shook his head.

“I think that’s far too risky. If we destroy the door by force, the High-Dimensional Data within will rapidly disperse. The mechanical monsters are extremely sensitive to the spread of High-Dimensional Data. Therefore, we must avoid attracting their attention as much as possible. Let’s search the area — we might find a clue nearby that can help us open the door.”

Without hesitation, Ritchie, standing beside Jeremy, acted on his suggestion. He manipulated the surrounding shadows, searching quickly for any clues around the door. Before long, he discovered a lever that appeared to be a controller.

“Hey, come check this out! I think this might be the door’s control mechanism.”

After Ritchie discovered what appeared to be a control mechanism, he quickly shared the news with Jeremy and the God of War. Jeremy and the God of War, who were searching for clues nearby, promptly rushed to Ritchie’s side.

When Jeremy laid eyes on the massive lever, his expression shifted slightly. Both the God of War and Ritchie noticed the change in Jeremy’s face.

With a hint of confusion, the God of War asked, “Did you think of something? Why do I see such a worried look on your face? Is this lever not the door’s controller? Even if that’s the case, you shouldn’t look so concerned. After all, we’ve already faced many crises. As long as we work together, we can handle any unexpected situations.”

The God of War still had immense confidence. He believed that while Jeremy and Ritchie might not possess the raw strength to be called deities, their intellect was undeniably remarkable—especially Jeremy.

The God of War often thought to himself that if he had Jeremy’s intelligence, he wouldn’t have lost the battle against [Fool].

Jeremy shook his head. “I am worried, but not because of the current situation. The lever Ritchie found *is* indeed the one that controls the door. But I’ve seen this control lever somewhere else before.”

Jeremy proceeded to describe, in detail, a past instance he had experienced. During that encounter, Jeremy faced terrifying enemies whose powers closely resembled those of Fool’s angels.

“So, you’re saying that if we move forward, we’ll be stepping directly into [Fool]’s territory?” The God of War seemed to understand Jeremy’s implication but still sought confirmation.

Jeremy nodded. “I think we might have been wrong in our earlier assumptions. The upper levels of the Tower of Exile might not be solely occupied by [the White Tower]. I believe it’s even possible that [Fool] is already at the top of the Tower.”

Jeremy’s words shocked both the God of War and Ritchie. Although they had prepared themselves to face [Fool] after defeating [the White Tower], encountering [Fool] during the battle was entirely different from facing [Fool] right from the start. The implications were immense.

“Are you really sure? Could it be that you’re overthinking this? I don’t believe [Fool] would care that much about the Tower of Exile,” Ritchie asked, his voice trembling slightly.

In Ritchie’s mind, Jeremy’s theory made some sense, but he didn’t want to believe it. If he accepted Jeremy’s words, he would completely lose confidence in this mission.

Faced with Ritchie’s doubt, Jeremy didn’t respond immediately. He remained silent for a moment, then finally spoke to both Ritchie and the God of War.

“I’m simply sharing my theory with you. No matter what kind of enemy we face at the top of the Tower of Exile, we must move forward without hesitation. If you’re ready, then join me in activating this controller. Beyond this door should be the tunnel that leads directly to the top of the Tower.”

Jeremy spoke these words with a determined tone, looking at both of them.

Without hesitation, the God of War stepped up beside Jeremy.

“My goal for this mission is clear: to seek revenge on both [Fool] and [the White Tower]. Them being at the top of the Tower of Exile is exactly what I hope for. If they’re not there, *then* I’d be disappointed. I have no reason to hesitate, and no reason to worry,” the God of War stated firmly.

After hearing the God of War’s declaration, Jeremy shifted his gaze to Ritchie.

Ritchie sighed, taking a few steps toward Jeremy.

“I still have some concerns, but now that we’ve come this far, there’s no reason to retreat. I’ll move forward with you! One way or another, we’ll succeed on this mission!” Ritchie finally affirmed.

With a clear response from both of them, Jeremy, the God of War, and Ritchie pressed the door’s control lever together.

The moment the lever was activated, the door emitted a loud, echoing noise. Immediately, a surge of High-Dimensional Data poured out from behind the door, and at the same time, the door slowly began to open.

“The mechanical monsters will detect us any moment now! We need to move quickly—once we reach the top of the Tower of Exile, the mechanical monsters will no longer pose a threat to us!”

With that, Jeremy darted into the tunnel at full speed.

The God of War and Ritchie quickly followed behind Jeremy. They fully trusted his judgment. As long as they could reach the top of the Tower of Exile, their only concern would be facing the strongest enemy of this mission. The rest of the mechanical monsters had no access to the uppermost levels of the Tower.

The moment Jeremy’s group entered the tunnel, every mechanical monster within the Tower of Exile locked onto their location. The Mechanical Empress, leading the charge with the Mechanical Tutor at her side, moved toward Jeremy’s group at top speed. Yet, the Mechanical Empress knew she was already a bit too late.

“We can’t stop Jeremy and the others from reaching the top of the Tower of Exile! Our next task is to provide as much support as we can in the battle to assist the great deity,” she declared.

The Mechanical Tutor, however, felt a flicker of concern. “Your Majesty, do you really think the great deity requires our help? The power of the deity far exceeds anything we can imagine. Even the strength we possess was gifted by him.”

The Mechanical Tutor couldn’t shake the feeling that the power of [the White Tower] was vastly superior to theirs. In such a scenario, what assistance could they possibly offer in the impending battle at the Tower’s summit?

“I understand your doubts,” the Mechanical Empress replied. “While the great deity is indeed powerful, he is preoccupied with matters far more significant. It’s possible he could be tied up by these more important concerns.”

No sooner had she finished speaking than a violent surge of High-Dimensional Data rippled through the air. At the same time, both the Mechanical Empress and the Mechanical Tutor heard the enraged voice of [the White Tower] deep within their minds.

At this moment, [the White Tower]’s emotions had gone beyond mere anger—he was teetering on the edge of madness.

“What are you fools doing?! You’re all worthless! I gave you power, but you haven’t used it to stop the intruders! Once I’ve dealt with these wretched invaders, I will make sure you are punished severely!”

The fury in [the White Tower]’s voice was unmistakable, and the pressure weighed heavily on the Mechanical Empress and the Mechanical Tutor. Despite the overwhelming tension, they couldn’t afford to slow their pace.

After all, despite everything, they still hoped to offer some assistance to [the White Tower].

Aside from the Mechanical Empress and the Mechanical Tutor, other powerful subordinates under the direct command of [the White Tower] were also rushing toward the uppermost levels of the Tower of Exile.

Though it was now impossible to prevent Jeremy and his team from reaching the summit, they were determined to do whatever they could to make up for their failure.
