　But the Tower of Endymion was originally broken; it was only restored by Hermes.

　If this ceremony succeeds, what does it matter if the "Tower of Endymion" collapses?

　Hermes himself, on the rooftop, was so nervous his toes were clenched. The situation was changing too fast; he felt he had another chance.

　Meanwhile, Dak Dimon, carrying "Shemi," flipped over the handrail and continued his rapid descent.

　He was blessed with various buffs, making him extremely fast.

　The statue of Hermes slowed down considerably in this narrow space and couldn't catch up for a while.

　The most solid part of the Tower of Endymion is the supporting pillar and the staircase that winds around it.

　Even the statue of Hermes couldn't smash back down the stairs and force his way down.

　During the run, Dark summoned "Curse Cage: Impmon" to his side again, and then used "Pride 3" to evolve it into "Devimon".

　Then, teleportation! This time, the distance of the "teleportation" was extremely long. [Devimon]'s mana consumption was enormous.

　But it successfully brought Dark and "Shemi" to a special floor that is located every twentieth floor.

　Below that, there are pollutants emitting toxic fumes! "It's the last resort."

　Dark reached out and patted "Shami's" head. "Meow..."

　"Shemi" rubbed against his palm and then popped out and jumped onto the stairs.

　It was, after all, a ten-star magical spirit, though it usually hid in Dark's arms like a pet. But its actual power was far greater than Dark's own.

　After landing, it sniffed downwards and then showed a look of disgust.

　But it still activated "natural recovery" and then suddenly opened its mouth towards the pollutants below!

　Its mouth is extremely small, yet it generates tremendous suction, but that suction is only directed at pollutants.

　The pollutants that had almost filled the entire Tower of Endymion suddenly became agitated.

　As if they knew they had met their nemesis, the pollutants, which had been slowly rising, suddenly surged into a frenzy. They became as active as on a special floor with windows, rapidly filling every level they occupied and continuing to rise, as if trying to swallow the "Shemi" above them as well.

　But "Shemi" has already enabled "natural response".

　Its body emitted a faint green light, which turned into a bright white light in a very short time.

　The white light illuminated the corridor.

　Suddenly, countless black dots appeared below. "Shami" opened its mouth, and those black dots surged into its body like a tide.

　The red flowers on both sides of [Shemi] thus shone with dazzling brilliance.

　The first pollutants to come into view had already turned white on the surface, and were immediately swallowed up and assimilated by the pollutants below.

　Then more pollutants appeared.

　Although "Shemi" was constantly inhaling, it only had one mouth. The speed at which it absorbed and purified pollutants couldn't keep up with the rate at which pollutants multiplied!

　"mum!"

　As if in a fight against it, "Shemi" suddenly let out a cry, and its speed of absorbing pollutants suddenly increased dramatically.

　The black specks of light gathered more and more, pouring into its mouth like rivers, lakes, and seas.

　The top layer of contaminants turned white at a visible rate, then turned into powder, and finally only a layer of transparent liquid remained.

　The rate at which "Shemi" absorbs and purifies pollutants is increasing. More and more of the pollutants are turning white.

　Those pollutants were transformed into the purest form of higher energy within his body. "Shaymi!"

　Dark called out suddenly.

　The statue of Hermes had rushed down, and with each step it shook the stairs.

　"mum!"

　"Shami" suddenly tilted its head back and opened its mouth in the direction where the statue of Hermes appeared, releasing "Seed Flash"!

　When the statue of Hermes flew down from above, it certainly didn't expect what it was about to encounter.

　Just like Hermes himself atop the tower, he would never have imagined that a magical spirit could absorb and purify such a level of contaminant—even turning it into energy that he could spray out!

　As the statue's vision was completely engulfed by the sudden burst of light, Hermes also crushed the magic chess pieces in his hand.

　Principal Arte, sitting opposite him, reached for the teacup beside the chessboard.

　"This is truly a tragedy," she thought.

　Aurora and the others, who were hiding on the second-to-last floor, suddenly heard a terrifying explosion coming from below, causing the entire upper tower to shake violently, which made them feel worried.

　Meanwhile, Oli and the others, who were still on the top floor, rushed into the stairwell and leaped downwards.

　The once indestructible supporting pillars had developed cracks. The section of the staircase affected by the explosion was reduced to dust. Dark removed his hand from his eyes and saw that the statue, which had directly received the "Seed Flash," was in a terrible state.

　Its face, a replica of Hermes's, is missing half of its face—not the left and right halves, but the front and back halves!

　If the top of the head is like this, the part below the neck is even worse.

　Its legs were almost gone, leaving only a black metal skeleton, with the right leg's skeleton severely bent.

　The "wing boots" that made it as light as a swallow have completely disappeared, and it can no longer move silently at that terrifying speed.

　On its upper body, its left hand was almost vaporized, while its right hand remained intact. However, the "Scepter of the God of Commerce" in its hand had been twisted into a pretzel shape.

　however.

　Although it looks miserable, it has not been destroyed.

　The "heart" located in the center of the body, which stores divine power, is still beating, its sound calm and powerful.

　External damage is not fatal to a statue; its combat ability may be reduced, but it is not lost.

　Its threat remains enormous!

　Therefore, when its paw suddenly twitched, Dark picked up "Shaymi" without hesitation and disappeared in front of the statue using "Devimon's" "Instant Teleportation".

　The cooldown for "Natural Recovery" is 30 minutes.

　The cooldown for "Seed Flash" is ten minutes.

　Ten minutes later, "Shemi" can absorb and release pollutants without purifying them, and then use "Seed Flash" again.

　While the resulting "Seed Flash" is not as powerful as the one used in conjunction with "Natural Recovery," the quality of the contaminants still ensures considerable damage.

　However, a ten-minute cooldown is indeed a bit long.

　If they want to stall for another ten minutes, the statue of Hermes still needs to cooperate.

　In fact, since the start of the battle, Darke has already made considerable guesses about the behavior of the statue and the thoughts of Hermes behind it.

　Based on this.

　Only then could he deal with the idol.

　Otherwise, if the idol had used its authority to attack with all its might from the beginning, he would have had no chance of winning.

　Later, even when the statue sensed something was wrong and finally tried to go all out, he had already found a way to defeat it.

　Now that the statue's divine power is nearly gone and it is severely damaged, there is more room for maneuver.

　—After the "instant teleportation" ended, Dark appeared on a floor not far from the top floor.

　Then he reached out and summoned a bottle of "Zawa Milk," which he casually handed to "Devimon."

　The evolution of "Devimon" lasts for fifteen minutes, and each "Instant Teleport" only requires a thirty-second interval.

　As long as he could keep the statue's hatred firmly in check, Dark could easily use the "Devimon" to traverse the upper levels of the "Tower of Endymion." However, that was only possible under normal circumstances. Now, after "Shamy" used "Seed Flash," the pollutants had rioted and were gushing upwards at an even faster rate than before.

　Under these circumstances, he had to start thinking about how to leave the tower.

　The windows at the top of the tower have been sealed off by a barrier set up by the statues, but the windows at the bottom have not.

　What prevented them from leaving was actually the black fog and pollutants outside. But now a greater danger is looming, and if absolutely necessary, they must break through this (Tower of Endymion), even if it means braving the black fog and pollutants.

　As for being teleported back by Hermes

　When it comes time to leave, they'll definitely have to leave those twelve gold medals behind. Darko is very clear about this.

　Only by planning an escape route in advance can one deal with the enemy more calmly. However, there is one thing I am truly grateful for in this battle. Apart from that one instance where it used its authority against everyone, the statue's targets have always been very clear.

　It didn't attack anyone else, but kept its eyes fixed on Dark Dimon.

　Dak is very grateful for this.

　His "Blessing of the Wind Spirit" has not yet been triggered, so he is not too afraid of sudden fatal attacks.

　Moreover, he always had "Fairy Puppet" stickers on his body.

　The "fairy puppet" can take the damage for him at the most critical moment and instantly trigger the "blink spell" to teleport him away.

　The trigger mechanism for "Fairy Puppet" predates that of "Blessing of the Wind Spirit".

　In this way, it's as if he has two extra lives.

　As long as the idol's hatred remains fixed on him, everyone else will be safe.

　He seized the opportunity to summon the "Magical Secretary" and commanded it to deliver a message. Then, a "Stardust Dragon" appeared, driven by the "Stardust Dragon."

　It flew to his side.

　The battle had entered his favorite personal rhythm. The sound of the idol's footsteps could already be heard below.

　The footsteps were extremely heavy, each step producing a metallic clanging sound.

　But it didn't become as bulky as expected.

　Having lost its "wing boots," it also lost its ability to fly. However, its own strength allows it to generate explosive speed by using the reaction force when it pushes off the ground.

　Therefore, its climbing speed is not slow. But that's about it – not slow at all.

　Dak estimated its speed and determined that he was capable of reacting to such a rapid attack.

　He pointed downwards and said, "Go." The "Stardust Dragon" then swam downwards.

　"Starry Dragon" has one chance to escape death, and even if it does, it only requires 1000 points of magic to be summoned again, making it the best choice for exploring without cost.

　Dark, on the other hand, launched a sacrificial summoning, and this time he summoned "Dragon Balto"!

　"Dragonball" possesses the "Penetrating" property. Even though its attack power isn't particularly strong, the "heart" of that statue is now exposed.

　As long as the "penetration" property is active, it will be able to make that statue feel threatened to some extent.

　Dark did not expect "Dragonbaruto" to pierce the heart of the statue with the "Dragon Arrow" and kill it.

　But as long as the statue can feel even the slightest threat, it's a win.

　He needs to use this to buy time.

　Ten minutes is a very long time.

　With a short cry from "Stardust Dragon," the statue finally stepped onto this floor.

　Dark did not immediately command "Devimon" to teleport instantly. Instead, he continued to use "Elysium i" to evolve "Dragonballs" and its companion "Dragonballs" into "Dragonballs".

　The two "Doraki" blocked the corridor, with the one in front using "Guardian" and the one behind using "Round".

　Although "round singing" cannot effectively damage the statue, it is still a powerful sound-based attack that can always annoy people and produce a provocative effect.

　The "Guardian" of the "Doraki" in front has a 30-second invincibility period—although Dark suspects that the statue should be able to easily break through the "Doraki's" "Guardian", it can at least withstand one attack.

　After this attack, the previously hidden "Dragon Balto" will use the "Dragon Mesia" that comes with the two "Dragon Chi" to transform into "Dragon Arrows" and shoot them out.

　The "Dragon Arrow" can penetrate the target's armor and shields. The "heart" of that statue is also encased in a metal shell, so the possibility of it being able to penetrate it is not useless.

　"boom!"

　as predicted.

　Upon encountering an obstacle, the statue unleashed a powerful punch without hesitation. It had already discarded the "Scepter of the God of Commerce," and its remaining right fist still carried immense and terrifying power.

　With that punch, the threshold of "holding" was directly shattered, instantly turning into glass.

　Immediately afterward, the statue stepped out and threw another punch at the second "Doraki"!

　The "Doraki" immediately activated "Protect".

　Just as the statue's right fist made contact with the "Guard" shield, the long-awaited "Dronbalto" quietly appeared, and the two "Dronmesia" that were tucked inside the triangular launch port on its head were immediately ejected by it.
