About this ebook

After defeating a Demonic Deity and leading Rohzenheim to victory, the No-life Gamers now set their sights on the Rank S dungeon. Before they head to Baukis, though, Allen uses his new elven connections to arrange for the Gamers to graduate from the Academy early.

Allen then brings the gang to Krena Village to drop in on his family and introduce everyone. What’s supposed to be a simple trip, however, quickly escalates into something more. It turns out that when Keel’s family had their House restored, their lands were also returned to them—including the nest of the white dragon that has terrorized the area for centuries!

The group eventually makes their way to Baukis and reunites with Meruru with much pomp and circumstance. There, they stand together before the Tower of Tribulations, the Rank S dungeon that no one—not even Hero Helmios nor the champions of ages past—has ever cleared.

Challenges and encounters galore await the No-life Gamers where all the world’s greatest fighters gather!

Ratings and reviews

Didn't finish the story arc, since much of the book is "side stories" that are totally out of context and drag out. You think you have a large portion of the story line left due to the number of pages remaining but it just breaks into short stories that could have been summed up in a few paragraphs in the real book.

absolutely the worst one so far. this is starting to become relatively repeatative in the narrative. 25% of this book is also side stories, which are way out of place at this point. seriously? the whole carnel issue was way back in volume 2. that ship has lonnng sailed, bringing back a defeated "villian" isn't as cool as you want it to be. power levels are BS too BTW. I can handle a couple of status updates per book, to outline the growth, but holy hell this book really pushed that in your face. at some point I just started flipping pages past all the statuses and all the exact same explanations provided. that's another thing in itself, why oh hell WHY are you constantly rewriting the EXACT SAME EXPLAINATION? I'm not a 4 year old, I can retain the first 5 explanations, please stop bombarding me every book with more exposition dumps and explanation of how endurance and attack work. how intelligence works, and how so and so doesn't have enough of this or that stat. Please. Stop.

great book cannot wait for the next one. the book advanced the story in a way I never imagined it would expanding on the dungeons and redefining the challenge. also getting to read about the golems we have been hearing about since volume 3 was exhilarating.
