Antagonist Protection Service

Chapter 259: Antagonist of Earth (4)

[Floor 31]

Thus far, after escaping the Dungeon of the Floors 11 through 13, many of the environments of the Floors since had been unique, or otherwise simply the sort of place I hadn’t much experience traversing.

Further than that, I would say around half of the Floors in the Tower so far contained environments I had already experienced in one form or another in the initial Tutorial Floors.

Dungeons, forests and jungles made up a good portion of it, but then there were those I had only encountered in Illusory Worlds.

Mountains, of which I had only ever climbed one―namely, the place a certain dragon tribe had declared its home.

Although that mountain was quite the trek to ascend indeed, particularly for my tremendously weak self at the time, it wasn’t all that bad if compared to what climbing a real mountain would be like, I suppose in part due to necessitating the Protagonist’s ability to scale and descend it numerous times.

In any case, it meant the mountains of the Tower were ever more enervating to deal with.

Aside from those environments, as was mentioned previously, there were the antithetical valleys; large canyons that, although not perhaps as claustrophobic as the dungeons or underground Floors for some, were yet rather linear in terms of the path forward, as well as a surprising amount of wetlands; Floors taking place in vast marshes, deep swamps, or ominous, foggy bogs.

Relative to all of that, the first Floor following the secondary Hub of the thirtieth was quite new… Albeit, not if you included the Tutorial.

Because, after all, maybe it was just cheaper for Leinth Eupraxia to recycle old content.

To put it simply, it was another desert.
