Chapter 1767


    “Ehh?” When Alex Rockefeller saw Uncle Drake, who seemed to be going mad, he quickly shook his


    head. “I don’t know. I haven’t seen any. It was like this when I came in. I was wondering why there


    weren’t any thundering mes inside. Looks like they’ve all escaped!” Alex said.


    Alex was afraid of saying that his golden core had absorbed all the thundering mes inside. If he did


    that, the old man would surely not let him off the hook. Besides, Alex couldn’t expose the incident


    rted to the twelve rune symbols of the ancient forbidden spell. Not only did he have to keep it a


    secret from these people before him, but he had to also hide it from his dearest wife and children.


    The ancient forbidden spell was intolerable in the universe. Anyone who knew about this would be in


    danger in some way.


    If someone greedy found out about this, the consequences were unthinkable.


    Soon, Uncle Drake ascended floor by floor. There weren’t any thundering mes on any of the floors,


    and when he made it up to the ninth, it was still empty.


    As for the chains that sealed Ne previously, Alex had kept them inside his storage bag. There wasn’t


    anything unusual up there.


    “Nothing!”


    “It’s really gone… The thundering mes have disappeared. What’s the use of this Soul Refining Tower


    now?” Alex didn’t see how downtrodden Uncle Drake looked.


    Alex kept walking down the stairs. He saw Fairy Doctor at the second floor’s entrance.


    When Fairy Doctor saw Alexing down, she immediately rushed over and hugged him. “Alex, you’re


    fine! You made it. You’re really awesome! Jade managed to make it through back then, but it took her


    an entire day and night. I didn’t expect you toplete it within an hour…”


    Fairy Doctor was extremely excited. She hugged him, pressed her mature body against him, and even


    kissed him forcefully on the lips. The kisssted for three minutes.


    Only when Fairy Doctor heard Uncle Drake coughing behind her did she let go of Alex in an


    embarrassed manner. “Uncle Drake, why do you seem so ufortable?”


    Could Uncle Drake not have an awful expression?


    “The thundering mes in here have disappeared. Without the thundering mes, the Soul Refining


    Tower can’t be used to refine demon souls. This is practically an empty setup!” Uncle Drake bellowed


    while pointing at Alex. “Hence, this kid managed to get onto the ninth floor not with his own capabilities,


    but mere luck,” Uncle Drake added.


    Fairy Doctor rolled her eyes. “Uncle Drake, luck is also a capability of sorts! Regardless of how it


    happened, Alex made it to the ninth floor. Hasn’t he passed the challenge? I think we should still issue


    him a graduation certificate and the points in ordance with the rules.”


    Uncle Drake rolled his eyes oddly. “Ms. Dawn, are you forsaking your principles for your lover?”


    Fairy Doctor continued to argue with reason. “Uncle Drake, you can’t say that. Frankly, this is what I


    think. Although there were no thundering mes in the Soul Refining Tower, and Alex did take


    advantage of it, it’s a good thing for the academy. That’s because we found out in advance that there


    weren’t actually thundering mes in Soul Refining Tower. Otherwise, we’d have


    locked some souls from the demon tribe in this ce. In the end, we would’ve realized that it wasn’t


    effective at all. On the other hand, we’d have given them time to recover. Once we open the doors,


    they’d rush out of the Soul Refining Tower. The oue will be unimaginable. Hence, I think the


    academy should still give Alex some reward. How about this? We’ll give him 300,000 points.”


    Uncle Drake’s eyes flew wide open.


    “300,000? You might as well just say 300 million points,” he said.


    “If that works, I’m fine with it,” replied Fairy Doctor.


    “Hmph… Honestly, woman, you’re siding with outsiders now! Fine. A graduation certificate and 30,000


    points. Kid, you’ve got it easy!” Uncle Drake said.


    With that, Uncle Drake took out a token and tossed it over to Fairy Doctor.


    Overjoyed, Fairy Doctor tugged at Alex to leave. She wanted to avoid Uncle Drake changing his mind.


    Alex suddenly thought of an idea. “Uncle Drake, I’ve done quite a lot of research on spell formations.


    This Soul Refining Tower has a spell formation at the top. It might be rted to the thundering mes in


    this ce! Thundering mes are bound to be consumed as the number of soul refinement increases.


    As long as we lure heavenly thunder into this ce, I think the thundering mes in the tower would


    probably be replenished again,” Alex said.


    After saying that, Alex pulled Fairy Doctor along and left.


    Uncle Drake’s eyes lit up. “This makes sense. This makes a lot of sense!”

    By then, the sky had already turned dark.


    Fairy Doctor and Alex held each other’s hands while they walked through the academy, not afraid of


    being too showy. However, when Fairy Doctor thought about how Alex would be leaving the academy


    right away, she couldn’t help but feel a little sad about his departure.


    “Alex, to avoid Uncle Drake’s change of mind, we’ll head over to the academy’s administrative office


    right now to sort out your graduation certificate and points,” she said.


    “Alright!”
