The Tower of Infinity: Echoes of the Golems

  ---

  The Journey Begins

  You awaken in the Tower of Infinity, a colossal structure that pierces the heavens and contains a hundred different worlds across its many floors. As you gaze upwards, a blend of anxiety and resolve courses through your veins. Somewhere in the unfathomable heights lies your escape. However, you must first conquer the chaos unfolding beneath your feet.

  The ethereal voices in your head, a cacophony of your memories and instincts, whisper to you. Some offer guidance, while others default to skepticism, asking you to consider if your struggle is even worth it. Yet, you know the truth: you must endure.

  World 1: Golem’s Awakening

  You find yourself standing amidst the clamor of a small human settlement engulfed by panic. Metal-clad golems of various types – brass, iron, copper, and silver – have awakened and are rampaging through the streets. The townsfolk scatter like leaves in the wind, shouting and crying for help.

  Objective: Destroy 4 different types of golems, find the key, and open the portal to proceed.

  The Environment Awaits

  You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

  You quietly assess the chaos around you. You notice makeshift barricades that could potentially serve as cover. A few terrified villagers are huddled together, eying the golems in fear. To the side, you spot a dilapidated blacksmith's forge. The heat still radiates from the coals inside. Perhaps you could find a weapon there.

  Finding the Forge

  You slip behind the barricade, glancing nervously at the animated golems. The forge is dimly lit but warm. In its glowing haze, you see various tools strewn about – hammers, tongs, and a sturdy anvil. Your eyes fall upon an old, rusted sword, nearly buried in ashes. With a deep breath, you grip it and feel an odd pulse flow through your hand.

  The Clever Trap

  You dash out from behind the forge, flinging debris towards the golem. Its metallic frame lurches, its clunky movements following the sound of falling rocks. You lead it toward the barricade with swift movements. Suddenly, it crashes into them, sending wooden splinters flying.

  The golem stumbles, unbalanced from the fall.

  Golem Status: Takes damage.

  You’re One Step Closer

  Now, with the copper golem damaged, you can finish this or plan your next attack on the remaining types. Your heart races with adrenaline; you feel you’re beginning to master the chaos, but your blueprints are still in the air.
