False pirates are hunting him. Gods want to enslave him. A terrorist just wants to watch it all burn.

Welcome back to the Tower.

After training off-planet with a deceptive god and her vicious cat, Lucas is thrown off balance by how quickly things have changed upon his return. The Tower has merged several floors and become a series of islands among a vast ocean. Danger is everywhere now. Elemental storms, bio-engineered monsters, and creatures from the deep abyss roam the area.

Amongst this chaotic region stands the Golden Door Quest. An open competition offering a grand prize to whoever solves it first. For Lucas and his friends, it could mean a true escape from the Tower. But the journey will be a perilous one fraught with hidden threats. Because while the Tower climbers compete for the prize, gods and other forces scheme in the background for control.

Dive into a LitRPG apocalypse story with classes, skills, monster waves, and a progression system full of secrets and possibilities. Perfect for fans of Rogue Ascension, Defiance of the Fall, and The Primal Hunter!
