Chapter 19: Chapter19-Order of Thunder



Pharaoh's Tower, Second Level.

Amidst the devastated ground, Owen touched the small pyramid on his forehead as it gradually faded.

He knew he had obtained the opportunity for the Order of Thunder!

He also discovered that his fate points in the system had increased to 600, totaling 900 points

now.

Only 100 points more, and he could unlock the Fate Store!

Taking a deep breath to calm his excitement, he glanced at Benedict and the other Wolf Guard members who were slowly descending from the barriers.

Except for Benedict, they were all seriously injured. The recent shockwave had been too terrifying.

Even working together, they couldn't resist it, and their bodies were covered with cuts and drenched in blood, emitting a strong scent of iron.

Seeing this, Owen spoke slowly:

"You should stay here and heal your wounds. I have some matters to attend to and will meet you back here later."

Benedict and the others looked at Owen with deep respect in their eyes. After a brief hesitation, they nodded.

They were in bad shape, severely injured, and even walking was difficult. They urgently needed to heal.

Otherwise, if any unexpected situation arose, they would become a burden.

Moreover, given Owen's combat performance so far, his strength far exceeded his tier, and he didn't need their protection.

As for staying by his side to monitor his every move and prevent him from escaping, this was pointless now that Owen's strength far surpassed theirs.

If he really wanted to leave, they couldn't stop him.

Besides, Benedict had a strong intuition that Owen's temporary departure was for something significant.

Owen was very knowledgeable about this place, even knowing how to kill the cursed zombies. He kept these thoughts to himself, not voicing them.

Master Owen clearly had many secrets, but Benedict, as the leader of the Wolf Guard for many years, knew not to ask questions he shouldn't and not to speak unnecessarily.

Seeing Benedict and the others nodding without objections, Owen gripped the Godslayer Sword tightly and went to the bottom of Pharaoh's Tower.

Pharaoh's Tower had only two levels. With the top-level Sphinx BOSS defeated, it seemed this dungeon was over.

However, Owen was very familiar with the original story.

At the bottom of Pharaoh's Tower, there was a hidden chamber that could only be accessed by defeating the BOSS and using a special method to enter!

Since Owen had already eradicated all the specters on the first level of Pharaoh's Tower, the area was now completely empty when he returned.

He glanced at the surrounding murals and walked to a wall depicting thunder and lightning.

On this wall, numerous sinners who had committed great wrongs were bound to open-air iron pillars, subjected to heavenly thunder strikes to cleanse their sins.

The Order of Thunder was exceptionally violent, and all the sinners struck by lightning were reduced to ashes, turned into charred remains.

Seeing this, Owen touched the small pyramid on his forehead, which began to glow as his mind power surged into it.

The hidden pyramid shimmered and materialized, emitting a golden light that merged into the wall.

Immediately, the mottled scene on the wall scattered, revealing a golden door.

Within the door, silver lightning flickered like twisted thunder snakes, intertwining to form a spinning vortex.

The jumping lightning arcs crackled in the air, leaving it charred and releasing an aura of extreme danger and destruction.

Even a gold-tier mage would feel a chill at the sight of those lightning arcs, wanting to retreat quickly.

After all, the destructive aura contained in the lightning could almost instantly tear and destroy the flesh.

However, Owen remained calm.

He knew that while the lightning at the entrance was indeed frightening, it was more of a deterrent to mind power.

Its actual power was not as terrifying as it appeared.

As an [Order], it carried a certain pride.

Without sufficient courage and strength, even if someone stumbled upon this great opportunity, they wouldn't be able to grasp it.

So, Owen smiled calmly and took a resolute step into the secret realm.

As Owen stepped into the portal, bolts of lightning from the cave struck him, as if trying to obliterate him and turn him to ash.

Owen felt a tingling sensation in his body and mind power, black smoke rising from his body, but it did not stop him from entering the portal.

The golden portal flashed and quickly contracted into a pinpoint of light, then disappeared.

Boom!

Inside the secret realm, Owen was surrounded by continuous rumbling sounds, as if the heavens and earth were shattering.

Looking around, all he could see was lightning flickering everywhere.

Every corner of this space was filled with various sizes of lightning bolts, as if he had entered

a world of thunder.

Owen's body trembled as a tingling pain spread through him. The surrounding lightning, like writhing silver snakes, surged madly towards his body, infiltrating every pore and muscle, causing thunder to dance across his skin.

The pain, like needles piercing his flesh, came from all over his body. Owen gritted his teeth and pushed Obsidify to its limit, his body glowing with black light, helping to alleviate the

pain.

He knew very well that the so-called Order of Thunder was actually this special lightning

space!

Only by absorbing all the lightning here could he truly master the Order of Thunder.

He had to endure!

Time passed slowly.

The more lightning Owen absorbed, the less the needle-like pain affected him, transforming into a sensation that was somewhere between pain and pleasure.

After a while, Owen took a deep breath, like a whale swallowing water, and gulped down the last remnants of lightning in the space.

Now, Owen was surrounded by dancing lightning, densely packed, resembling a god of

thunder.

Especially at his forehead, where the ethereal pyramid had vanished, replaced by a "Z"-

shaped lightning rune.

This rune appeared solid, emitting an aura of ultimate destruction, as if it could turn

everything before him into nothingness!

The Order of Thunder!

He had finally obtained it!

Owen slowly opened his eyes, a flash of lightning crossing his gaze.

Simultaneously, his aura began to surge, and the light of advancement appeared around him

again.

Silver-tier level 7!

After acquiring the Order of Thunder, his tier had also increased!

Furthermore, Owen noticed that his Obsidify had also been tempered by the lightning,

advancing to level 2, reaching the magic flesh stage.

He was even close to level 3, Obsidian Bone!

Gaining the Order of Thunder had far exceeded his expectations!

No wonder the original protagonist, after obtaining the Order of Thunder, saw a tremendous

surge in power, dominating this otherworldly realm and experiencing dramatic shifts over

thirty years.

As Owen prepared to leave, he suddenly discovered that his fate points had increased by 1000!

Bringing his total fate points to 1900!

Fate Store!

Upon realizing that he could now unlock the Fate Store with 1000 fate points, Owen eagerly opened the system panel and selected the newly available option, Fate Store!

Though he didn't yet know what it contained, he was certain that, given how hard fate points

were to acquire, the store must hold many valuable items!

As Owen quickly accessed the Fate Store, three shelves laden with various items appeared

before him.

The three shelves were divided into three main categories:

Skill Scrolls:

- Basic Healing Skill (50 fate points, quickly restores stamina and mind power by consuming

10 drops of HP)

- Advanced Healing Potion (500 fate points, instantly restores full HP, stamina, and mind

power)

- Order Fusion Spell (2000 fate points, can fuse [Order])

- Order of Thunder Usage Skill (2000 fate points)

Items:

- Order of Fire (600 fate points)

- Soul Crystal (700 fate points)

Weapons:

- Sword of Damocles (10000 fate points)

- Spear of Longinus (10000 fate points)

- Bow of Il (10000 fate points)

The shelves were filled with an array of treasures.

There were many amazing items, both expected and unexpected!

All of them were top-tier, some even divine!

Particularly, the Order of Thunder Usage Skill caught Owen's eye.

Though he had obtained the Order of Thunder, his proficiency with it was low, allowing him

to perform only basic attacks.

With the Order of Thunder Usage Skill, his understanding of the Order of Thunder would deepen significantly, enabling him to use many advanced techniques. Additionally, the Order of Fire was also highly tempting.

After all, this was an exceptionally rare [Order] that most mages might never see in their

lifetime!
