Climbing the Tower to Be a God With 10x Gacha System
Chapter 140: More Dangerous Than The Others

Seeing James shake his head, Noah had an incredibly big smile on his face. It was quite possible to say that Noah himself did not expect such an answer, indeed, the shock expression on his face and the seriousness of his appearance seemed to emphasise everything.

"Have it your way, whatever you do, don't faint, if you faint you'll die, this is not like other poisons, one drop of the poison I'm going to give you right now is enough to dry the forest you see over there.

If you accept this, Nyx will retreat, you will be completely alone, and at the end of the test, it will be determined whether you will die or not." Noah suddenly said, and with that, a bottle appeared in his hand.

"Send it over," James said, and Noah nodded solemnly and moved off.

The water in the cauldron was clear, Noah unscrewed the cap and dipped a toothpick into the bottle and pulled it out, the moment he dipped the toothpick into the water the water turned the darkest green colour there was.

It was only a drop from the toothpick that had coloured the water like that.

James suddenly realised that he was dizzy, blood was pouring from his nose, eyes, ears and mouth and he was choking.

He tried to use his aura but in vain, he tried to bring out his magic but in vain, it was useless, it was as if both his aura and his magic were afraid of this poison.

The smell emanating from the poison was so deep and awful that the trees at the edge of the forest, almost 50 metres away from them, began to rot. James could feel his whole body starting to rot like these trees.

His automatic healing ability was doing its best, doing everything it could to keep James alive.

James wanted to close his eyes, but the pain was so great that his body seemed to be warning him not to close his eyes.

Every nerve, every vein in his body was glowing a dark green colour, the bright green colour in his eyes and hair had turned into a glowing dark green.

James felt like he was on the 15th floor as he looked up at the sky.

"Sea of Stars," he said, spitting blood. He was officially starting to hallucinate. He could see black holes, stars, and planets appearing to his right and left, on the side of his face and in front of his eyes.

His whole body felt like it was underwater, heavy and sinking to the bottom of the sea, it was just a cauldron, a cauldron filled with deadly poison, it shouldn't feel like that, but James felt like he was passing out.

He felt like he was floating in space, he was starting to lose himself, his eyes were closing and he was starting to collapse.

Suddenly the sound of a text message caught his attention.

When he barely managed to open his eyes fully, he managed to see the message in front of him:

[DON'T BE RIDICULOUS! STAY AWAKE JAMES!!! DON'T DIE WHILE I'M WAITING FOR YOU!]

This message was coming from Nemesis. When James saw the message his head fell back, he realised that he was indeed submerged in the water in the huge cauldron and then he stood up and grabbed the cauldron by one side.

With that, James closed his eyes and began to meditate in a standing position.

He realised that the enormous amount of Star Magic energy entering his body from the sky was relaxing him. The pain and aggression from the poison was so great that it had even crossed his mind that he could meditate for Star Magic, even though he had done so with previous poisons.

The poison was such a terrible thing that even the material the cauldron was made of was corroded, even if only slightly.

What was even more surprising was that this poison was not the strongest one Noah had, if this poison could do such a terrible thing, how could the other two? Could these poisons kill gods?

Could this be how the future James saw had been shaped? After all, what kind of power could have put Nyx in such a state?

With all the questions in James' mind, time was passing even if he didn't realise it, what had been a few seconds for him had already turned into a few days, and the pain in his body hadn't diminished in the slightest, but his addiction to the poison had indeed increased tremendously.

Suddenly he felt a force enveloping him and in the next seconds he felt that he was lying on the ground. The cold floor seemed to give him a strange sensation.

"Try to open your eyes, James," Noah suddenly said, and when James opened his eyes, he saw the sky again and marvelled at its beauty.

Then, with great pain, he managed to smile and uttered the words that would make all the onlookers burst into laughter:

"O Nemesis my dearest one, I am so in love with you."

"We need to get out the part of the poison that you can't assimilate," said Noah, who approached James and pricked his index finger with a needle.

James thought he had succeeded and smiled, and indeed, after a very, very long time, tears began to stream down his face.

A dark green puddle of blood began to run down to the ground and into the forest.

"Why is the poison that just killed everything now making the forest green?" James asked, surprised to see that everything in the forest was starting to turn green.

When Noah heard this question, he said, "The poison could be an antidote, James, the poison just now was an untamed one, but you managed to tame it. Which means that we are releasing an antidote, the antidote you couldn't assimilate."

James turned his head at this question and then said, "I want to rest, I want to rest badly, I hope I passed your test, Master Noah."

Noah couldn't stop laughing when he heard those words:

"Puahahahahaha!!! You were just dying, you idiot! You just meditated for 7 days, even exceeding the 21-day limit, and you struggled with death and you're wondering about the exam?! PUHAHA YOU'RE SO INTERESTING, YOUNG MAN!"

These words alone were enough for Noah to tell James that he loved him. The two would become better friends than they thought.
