Novel Boss
Chapter 141: Prizes
When James opened his eyes again, he realized he had woken up in a room. His body hurt like crazy. It didn't take him long to realize that his body, blood, mana, and aura were still trying to fuse with the poison.
When he found the strength to sit up in bed, he did so and then looked out of the window next to where he was lying. Outside the window, he saw the gorilla he had killed, the tigers, the parrots he had passed and the owl he had taught.
"You're alive...what good news," James said suddenly, he kept thinking that these creatures were more special than they looked, he wasn't lying, he was delighted they were okay.
After a short while, multiple notification windows appeared in front of him:
[Master Level Poison Element(Godly++++)
Understanding the element of poison is everyone's dream. Fate, time, poison, darkness and light are considered the most powerful among the laws of the tower. Of course, each law is incredibly difficult to develop, but poison is the only one that, unlike the other laws, yearns to kill its user.
It is alive, just like fire itself.
Even if the degree of this elemental law is high, the training that is put upon it must be thousands of times higher than the degree itself.
O great spirit, I hope you do not fall prey to the poison itself and bring about your doom.
-Cain the Tailor]
James' eyes widened as he looked at the first notification window, it seemed that Cain, the third and most powerful of the main admins, had written this notification with his own hands, the talent had been handed over to James and the name of the admins had been specially written.
James was overjoyed as he closed the notification and pulled it in front of him with a smiling face as he read what came next:
[The title of Poison Master has been earned!
This title has only been given to 10 people in the history of the tower. It can be earned through the constant purification of the body with poisons that can be considered the most powerful and is earned by being chosen by the elemental law itself, despite the user or player's desire to stay alive and tame the poison itself.
The title will have positive effects:
+500 to the Magic stat.
Intelligence stat +200.
Endurance stat +100.
Susceptibility to the poison element increased by 500%].
After reading this notice, James was at a loss for words for almost a minute, seeming to understand why Noah, the examiner, had gone to so much trouble for him.
First, he had discovered that he had a predisposition to the element of fire, then thanks to Chronos he had discovered a predisposition to the element of time, these two laws were the laws of creation, but the law of the poison element didn't fit anywhere.
It was not a law of creation like the other two, but of destruction.
James had more potential than he realized, the blood in his body, the blood of his lineage and the greatness of his ancestry had given him these gifts. It was indeed enough for him to fall on his knees and beg with joy.
However, he saw that there were two notices left to look at, so he closed the window with the Poison Master notice and pulled the other one in front of him:
[Congratulations!
You have managed to pass all floors between floors 15-19!
You've managed to secure a position in the race to complete floors fast and earn extra rewards!
17,500,000 Gold has been added to your account.
A low-level experience point boost potion has been added to your inventory.
(Floor Total Rank)
1-Chronos of the Titans
2-Apollo of Olympus
3-Nyx/Erebus of Chaos
4-Zeus of Olympos
5-Enlil of Mesopotamia
6-Umbra of Chaos]
James rejoiced at the speed with which he had completed the floor and began to think that this was probably because he should have been given an easier test. Little did he know that the test he had taken was almost 50 times harder than Chronos' and even Apollo's, which annoyed the examiner.
With that, it was time for the last notification, and after closing the ranking notification, he pulled the last notification in front of him and began to read it:
[Congratulations on passing the exam of Noah the Devourer, one of the examiners on the 19th floor for a very long time!
At the examiner's request, the following award has been presented to you:
{Noah the Devourer's Tooth(Creator-----)}
The examiner is confident that you will put this tooth to good use].
After reading the last notification, James nodded and happily opened his inventory to find the tooth.
It seemed to work in his favour that Ronald had emptied almost all his inventory for him to sell.
Having found the tooth, James gently removed it from his inventory with a cloth and saw that it was the same size as Selene's Throwing Knife.
With that, he placed the tooth in his inventory and stood up, albeit with difficulty, as soon as he realized that he was naked, he put some clothes on and did not forget to put on the Adamant armour called Lux.
After he was barely out of bed, he realized that his whole body was out of balance, his head was spinning extraordinarily.
When he opened the door to her room, he saw Noah standing in the doorway, and to say he was a little scared would be an understatement.
"Nyx and the others have been bombarding me with messages, I'm glad to see you're awake. Nyx would have been mad at me if you were dead, but at least you accepted the poison so I wouldn't be to blame." Noah said suddenly, and James didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
"Thank you for your help, even though I ended up dying I still managed to live, it was supposed to be a test but I didn't expect it to be so easy," James said.
The audience didn't know what to say, everyone was silent, no one should have told James how stupid he was.
"PUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You are gonna kill me little dude of mine!" Noah suddenly shouted, surprised by the sound and the reaction, James shook his head and then asked, 'Did I say something wrong?' not understanding what was going on.
