Chapter 559 - Three Headed Poison Hydra
"I will wait for a week and now I will go back to sleep,"
Soon, Ajax stopped thinking about it and went to his bed before freely falling onto his soft bed.
'It's been how many days since I last slept in this bed?'
With all the things happening and adding up to the different time speed in the five elemental world, Ajax totally lost track of time as he reminisced about the last time he slept on his soft bed.
'As soon as the baby snow lion finishes its re-cultivation process and evolves into a humanoid being, then I will try the battle tower myself. But, before that, I should send someone into it?'
While relaxing on his soft bed, he thought of using the battle towers he had never used it before; however, he decided to send someone else before that because he didn't want to disturb the baby snow lion with its re-cultivation process.
When he fights someone, he needs to use the essence of nature from the spirit consciousness which would definitely cause fluctuations in it. So, he decided to wait a couple of days and relax.
"Whom should I send into the battle tower?"
Since the battle tower was very useful in developing the cultivation technique and increasing the battle prowess through fighting in the tower, Ajax didn't want to waste it and wanted to use it at its fullest.
However, the problem was he fell into a dilemma on selecting the participating as there were many summons under him.
'Ding,
The host activated the battle tower. Please select a participant to send into the tower to challenge one of the hall guardians.
When he was just thinking of using the battle tower, the system had already summoned a small tower-like structure which was completely covered in golden lustre, in front of him.
'So, this is a battle tower,'
Although Ajax was shocked by the sudden appearance of a small tower-like structure in front of him, he was able to guess it was the battle tower and became a little excited to see it.
Until now, he didn't have how the battle tower looks except for the fact it was a tower-like structure; however, now he knew it was coated with a golden lustre which was very beautiful.
"I will go with Bane this time,"
After thinking for a moment, he selected the poison elemental spirit because it was the strongest elemental spirit after Volcanis.
Soon, he summoned Bane out of his inner world.
"Bane, go and play to your heart's content and you can use the full powers of your weapon 'Five elemental poison orb' to its fullest without any fear,"
With a slight smile on his face, he ordered the poison elemental spirit before sending him into the battle-tower which was hovering in the mid-air.
Until now Bane didn't use his full strength in any of the battles he had fought. It was not because he could not, it was because if he used the full power of his poison, it would affect the other summons and even the summoner might be mildly affected by it. So, he didn't use it.
However, now Ajax gave the order to play with his poison to the fullest which made Bane very excited and looked forward to fighting in the battle tower.
"Let's see who is his opponent?"
With a curious look on his face, Ajax summoned a holographic screen that could show the fight between Bane and one of the guardians of the battle tower.
'Th..that is…Snake?'
Ajax watched Bane open a huge grey coloured door and entered into one of the halls. The entire hall was billed with a light green-coloured mist which made It impossible to see beyond a certain distance.
However, Ajax saw a light-green coloured snake which was blended into the light-green coloured mist in the hall.
'But it is too big to a normal snake,'
Ajax was just shocked and thought that the snake was not a normal guardian. Except for the silhouette of the guardian, Ajax was able to see that snake-like being in the mist.
"Huh? The mist is clearing,"
While Ajax was curious about the guardian, he noticed that the mist between Bane and the guardian was moving away and he was able to see exactly what the guardian looked like.
'Ding,
Guardian beast:- Three-headed poison hydra
At the same time, he received the system notification that made him shocked because there was three only one head to the guardian he was seeing on the holographic screen.
However, in the system notification, it was clearly saying that it was a three-headed hydra.
"Is there another guardian in that hall?"
Ajax was sure that the thing he was seeing was not a hydra. So, he looked at the surroundings of the hall and noticed a slight movement in one corner of the hall; however, because of the mist, he was unable to see what was hiding there.
'Bane, looks like there is another….'
'Bane, watch out,'
Just as he was about to warn Bane about the other guardian beast hiding in the mist, he saw the exact same type of guardian beast he saw in front of Bane come out of the corner he was keeping an eye on it and hurriedly warned Bane about it.
"Playing games with me in the poison mist. You still need much more than that to sneak up on me,"
However, just when the snake-like guardian beast was about to swallow Bane, he disappeared and appeared in front of the other snake-like guardian beast which was standing in front of him and within a fraction of seconds, he summoned his poison scythe before cleaving at it.
That's right! The light-green coloured mist was the poison mist and that was the reason why Bane didn't have much fear about the ambush as he got enlightened in the 'Way of poison'.
'Swoosh'
Bane thought that the beast in front of him had nowhere to escape and used his full force to leave it.
