Gods' Impact Online

Chapter 178

[Floor 74th has been cleared. Proceed to the portal to enter the next floor!]

The remaining player started passing through the portal to enter the next floor.

"I still can’t believe it took them 25 hours to clear eight more floors," Zach sighed in disbelief.

"The numbers of players were lower than the monsters. And the monsters are strong as well." Victoria turned to Zach and said, "But you disappeared many times during the fights."

Since it was taking them more than 3 hours to clear each floor, Zach used to go into Aria’s domain to rest and cultivate. However, Aria’s domain had no sense of time. It was impossible to know how much time had passed unless Zach manually checked the clock in the menu.

Zach couldn’t tell if the players outside had cleared the floor or not, so he had told Aria to message him whenever the floor was about to be cleared.

Of course, Aria also felt exhausted, so she came into her domain to rest while Zach cultivated.

When Zach summoned the portal to Aria’s domain for the first time and showed it to Victoria, she freaked out. But Zach later explained some things and told her about his true origin. He also told her about the Sea Realm and what happened there, including his engagement with Aquarius and affair with Ruli.

Initially, Victoria got confused and asked him many questions, and Zach replied to each of them. It was a lot to take in, and there were still certain things she couldn’t comprehend. But she believed everything Zach said since she knew he never lied to his loved ones.

Victoria realized why Zach acted and behaved like he did when they were training. She realized that she knew very little about Zach. She felt terrible and guilty for blaming Zach for the things he had no control over.

Zach thought Victoria would finally agree to date him again, but she still wanted to stay as a friend.

In truth, Victoria was scared. Zach was the only boy she had loved and dated. But if they started dating again, it would bring responsibilities as well.

Unlike Aurora, who had a traditional mindset, Victoria grew up in a highly modernized society, so naturally, her mentality was different from other girls in Zach’s harem.

The only reason she was okay in sharing Zach was that she wanted to be with him. She loved him, and it didn’t matter how many girls Zach loved. As long as Zach loved her, she was happy.

Victoria had decided that once the raid ended and she joined Zach’s party, she would slowly close her distance and break the boundaries in the relationship. Her first dating experience didn’t end well, and she didn’t want to make the same mistakes again. That’s why, she wanted to start her relationship from scratch.

It had been two days since the dungeon expedition started, and of course, the same amount of time passed outside the dungeon too.

Zach was getting worried and anxious about Aurora, so he messaged her to ensure she was okay.

Aurora didn’t reply at first, and that got Zach worried. Zach was about to leave the dungeon raid and go back, but Aurora replied and told him that she fell asleep while masturbating. They talked for a while, and Aurora asked about the progress of the raid.

Zach told her that it could take him approximately three more days to clear floor 100th since the difficulty level was drastically increasing with every floor. Not to mention the monster’s quantity too.

The dungeon expedition started from floor 1 with 5000 guild members, Aria and Victoria, making it a total of 5002 players. On floor 49, 1869 players retreated, leaving 3133 players.

The main goal of this dungeon raid was to help low-level players to level up fast and increase their physique. Once the players had met the requirements to ascend to the higher realm, they retreated in the following floor. Hence, the number of players slowly decreased while the difficulty level and quantity of the monsters increased. 911 players had left, and 2222 players remained, plus Zach.

’It’s highly unlikely that all the players will be able to meet the requirements,’ Zach uttered inwardly. ’And if I follow the pattern of the difficulty of the floors, the monster from the floor 75 would be crazy strong. A few of the guild members might die too.’

Zach walked forward with Victoria on his left and Aria on his right.

"Floor 75 has a single boss, so I will be taking care of it," he said in a solemn voice with a serious look on his face.

"Are you sure you don’t want any of our help?" Victoria asked hesitantly.

It wasn’t as though she didn’t trust Zach’s strength, but she was simply worried about him like a girl in love would.

"Yeah, it’s fine." Zach nodded and said, "But do me a favor and keep your guild members at bay. I don’t want them to get in my way."

"Got it."

Zach turned to Aria and smiled at her without saying anything.

"What’s with that smile?" Aria asked with a confused look on her face.

"I will be needing your help," he said in a gentle voice with a grin on his face.

"...!" Even Aria was surprised after hearing that. "My... help...?" she stuttered.

"I will probably get immersed when I fight the boss, and there are chances that the boss might try a secret attack or pull any hidden tricks," Zach stated. "I want you to keep an eye on the monster and back me up if needed."

"Oh..." Aria was a little disappointed because she thought Zach would ask her to fight alongside him. But she was happy regardless since he was relying on her for the first time in a while.

Once all the players had passed through the portal, Zach, Aria, and Victoria entered the 75th floor and waited for the boss to spawn.

However, the boss was not how they had expected.
