The ape struggled to try wiggling his arms to escape. However, it could only move a little bit as the needles pierced the weak spots in its limbs.

Liu Guanyi approached the ape as he looked down on it. Its ability wasn't that amazing, a decent team would be able to kill if they were prepared.

But if they weren't, they would be massacred like the regulars he had seen, considering its amazing speed and maneuverability in its home ground.

Liu Guanyi peeled off the bananas from the ape's hands as it groaned threateningly. He ignored it and contacted Adori and Xin to come over through his pocket.

This device was really handy, Liu Guanyi experienced the benefit of an advanced civilization firsthand.

'It's all finished once they come over. I guess to get the bananas, it's not really that hard but it's hard to maintain and keep the bananas even if we can hide them away.'

'Fortunately, I have Adori to hold them back so there's no need to expose some of my true power.' Liu Guanyi thought with a smile.

After some time, Adori came quickly and followed by Xin a few minutes later.

They didn't hide nor show off the golden banana so many of the regulars tried to steal the banana. They also simply camped there and did nothing to hide so that was another reason.

Unfortunately, they were all dead once they showed their wicked intention as a sword slash quickly cut them off in pieces in an instant. Adori didn't even try to make a quick work of them. She was just that good, still too strong for Liu Guanyi to beat, at last for now.

They continued to casually enjoy the "serene" forest until the hours passed.

The golden banana shined brightly, its golden color covered the three of them. Its light became brighter and brighter as it finally stopped shinning after a few seconds. When the light was gone, they were all disappeared along with it.

The size of Archimedes was truly huge. It had many floors and even many more rooms and halls which had their own purposes. From the rooms for the regulars to exclusive rooms for the Workshop researchers and staff.

On the first floor, there were parks and a water fountain. Some regulars could be spotted there enjoying the fresh sceneries and cool winds. This place was perfect for those who wanted to de-stress and enjoy quiet places away from crowds and noises.

On the second floor, there were the poolside and various entertainment venues. There were also the rest areas and residences for the regulars who participated in the tournament.

There were luxurious hotels, kiosks, and restaurants that provided free services to the regulars. Basically, the 2nd floor was the favorite place for the regulars to spend their free time on Archi, especially the poolside.

There were so many people playing in the poolside in their swimming trunks and bikinis. Some of them were swimming and playing in the water, and some of them enjoyed sunbathing as they drank lemonades and other liquors that were offered for free. This was the best place to relax for anyone who didn't mind the crowd and noise.

On the third floor, there were many shops and stores which were affiliated with the Workshop. They sold the items that were produced by the Workshop to the public. Even though the items weren't anything special, they were still better than what was usually sold out there.

The Workshop didn't mind it, they even encouraged these businesses since they give a lot of revenues for them to fund their endless costs of research.

Meanwhile the fourth floor… it wasn't open to the public yet, but from what Xin had looked into, it was where the stadium for the tournament would be held. Well, they had three days of free time before the tournament would be started by the grace of the Workshop.

Now where Liu Guanyi and his "companions" would be?

Well, Liu Guanyi stood in front of a shop with many weapons and equipment adorned the shop with a beautiful white-haired girl on his side. It was obvious, the third floor.

Why he didn't want to enjoy his free time on the first floor or the second floor?

The free service and extravagant treatment were very tempting, especially for someone from a backward society like him. Even the royal family in his world didn't have such luxuries.

It all boiled down on a single point, he was a warrior, one who had dedicated all of his life to walk on the Martial Way.

Those who walk on the Martial Way weren't just someone or anyone who could fight with swords, spears, and their bare hands, no!

They were all respectable persons who walked on the perilous Martial Way to understand and experience its deep, vast philosophies and wonders. And he wasn't a nobody on the path, he was one of the best warriors ever born on the Martial Way.

With every great success in the Martial Way, the greater control a warrior had over their body, instincts, and desires.

This was the reason why he had only been stunned for a moment when he saw Adori for the first time and was never attracted to her beauty afterward. So, even a very tempting luxury wouldn't be able to affect his young body and he could keep his mind clear to his objectives.

On the other hand, Adori wasn't really interested in the first and second floors. She preferred quiet places to noisy ones for sure but she didn't need to visit the first floor to de-stress at the moment.

Because she wasn't stressed for a long time, instead she had been feeling happier in these years even with the intense training.

As for the second floor, they had dropped by there to eat some grilled fish in a restaurant and settled their rooms, and did nothing else. She was very young in comparison to most of the regulars, only a few decades old.

Yep, a few decades old as an E-ranked regular was relatively young.

Even though most regulars appeared young, their true ages didn't reflect their appearance. This was common in the tower so age and seniority didn't mean anything for the most part.

Only power and authority meant anything in the tower.
