Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 13: 13. Heaven's tower (1): First Heavenly totems.

Zain looked at all the items and none of them was up to his taste and he resigned.

"How bout you, Leo? You like any?" Zain turned to his friend.

Leo didn't say anything and picked up the blue orb before throwing it into his mouth and swallowing it.

"I knew that it was what you wanted. Spirit wtones are very rare." Zain shook his head with a smile.

"Here you go Dexter." Zain shifted the spear and the gloves to him. "I know that you don't have a weapon and I already have my trusty axe so here. Now don't be humble."

Dexter's brow raised when he heard the word 'humble'.

'Humble? In an apocalypse?!' He thought it was weird.

"Thank you very much." He pulled the items greedily and he immediately wore the gloves.

[Gripping gloves: Adds gripping effect when wielding weapons. Strength +5... per hand]

He immediately felt that extra strength and then he picked up the spear that looked like it was forged from a red metal as the body was glimmering a little bit in the light but then Dexter pulled it into the shadows.

The short, golden blade at the top which had glowing red lines running on it was even making the weapon more majestic and beautiful.

[Destroyer's spear: Has an extremely sharp blade that can pierce though the defence of all creatures below level 20. Strength +10, Agility +12.]

Dexter was amazed by the description of the weapon and he smiled in satisfaction.

'Although I don't know how to fight with a spear. I don't have to come close to a creature to kill it. Just jabbing at it from a distance, this is great.' Dexter was overjoyed.

He was always a cautious person and would never put himself in danger, others however, he wouldn't hesitate.

"Did you guys also reach level 5. I got a notification." Leo said as he stared at the empty space in front of him and Dexter brought up his status.

'Hm. I indeed reached level 5. But how?' He thought as he tapped on the reward section.

[Technique gained (view)]

Noticing more on the screen his eyes moved downwards.

[You have levelled up to level 5]

[You can now enter Heaven's tower.]

[Enter Heaven's tower (Yes) | (No).]

'Heaven's tower? Before the apocalypse broke out, those words said, Heaven's tower is open to all humans. But what exactly is it.' Dexter thought.

"I also got it. Wow." Zain confirmed.

"Me too." Rina said excitedly and everyone turned to dexter who was deep in thought.

"Dexter?"

He was snapped out his daze as he was busy thinking about the tiran impact.

"Ah, yes. I also got the message." He confirmed.

"Sooo. Let's go now." Zain looked excited.

Before Dexter said anything else Rina and Leo both agreed.

"Alright."

"Yay, let's go."

Dexter felt tired.

"Let's think about this very well. What if it's a trap." Dexter suggested in a serious tone.

"Bro. In that first text, Heaven's tower is supposed to help us grow. Stop being overly cautious and come on." Zain said and tapped mid air and his eyes rolled backwards as he slumped on the floor.

Leo and Rina too did the same and they slumped on the floor, as if they are dead.

"Guys? Guys?!" Dexter moved over to them and shook Zain and when he heard his heartbeat he calmed down.

Just at that moment he saw red lines running on Zain's neck and he began hearing pumping sounds coming from the neck and his eyes began changing colour as his teeth began elongating.

He was not in control, he moved towards the neck ever so slowly, his scelera was now bright red and his pupils were black in colour.

As he was close to the neck wind blowed into the room and a small bead fell down, making a loud sound.

Dexter looked as it was very loud in his ear and coincidentally, there was a mirror there as well.

Dexter's eyes widened as he saw his reflection. His canines were so long and he looked like some kind of demon from hell.

He calmed down as he moved away from Zain, crawling backwards. His heart was beating extremely fast as he couldn't believe what he almost did.

'I almost did that. I needed blood ever since the sun hurt me.' He thought as he brought out the final bottle of blood and drank it greedily till it finished and he was able to calm down a little.

He then brought out a bag of peanuts and began eating it. The crunchy sounds and the taste of groundnut with the spiced flour made him just forget about everything else.

"These peanuts works wonders. I'll save some for later." He said and put the bag of peanuts back into hid big backpack.

He then looked at the screen in front of him.

[Enter Heaven's tower (Yes) | (No).]

He ultimately decided to go and he tapped on the (Yes) button and immediately, he felt himself being pulled and it was as if he was pulled out of water.

He saw himself standing and he looked around, he was still in the same room.

'What's going on?' He turned back to see his body on the floor, unmoving and his eyes shone.

Before he could shout he was pulled by a strong force upwards and he saw himself phase through the roof of the ceiling while shooting upwards to space at top speed, even faster than rockets.

"AHHHHHH...!!!" Dexter shouted for his life as he felt the breeze brushing passed his skin. Even if he didn't want to believe it wasn't real it was.

He got into space, still being pulled and he stopped shouting and swallowed his spit before charging and beginning another round of shouting.

Dexter's eyes opened widely as he shouted twice as loud, seeing himself being pulled into the sun.
