Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 12
Chapter 12 Farming
How I can become stronger.
Simple. It was no different from what had already been decided at the time of receiving the title of attacker.
“Specification up using the attacker title.”
It’s the only way to become stronger now that you can’t hunt other monsters.
Exercising with your bare body can also be a way.
“There is no food.”
They gave food and water every time they cleared it, but there was no guarantee that it would continue to be given.
If you go to the 6th floor, the shop window will open, so why do you have to go through all that trouble here?
Therefore, the first thing to do is to write a strategy for the second floor.
The timing was also good.
I quickly hit the writing tab.
“How to row when the water comes in.”
As the Sangun Guild guys flocked, my strategy went up to public notice.
that it has been exposed to the public. Because it’s the only strategy article for channels below the 10th floor.
I didn’t mean to, but the situation imprinted my nickname on people.
If I try to measure the angle while noticing for no reason,
I just miss the timing.
“I have to give help to Nyan Nyang Punch, who is both a lover and a lover.”
It seems to be blocked on the second floor.
Everyone who is climbing the tutorial with me now is a valuable witness. Prove the brutality of the government and large guilds.
As a bonus, they are also customers who will give me contribution points.
[Petit Gongdu]: Nyangnyang Punch. Is it difficult to attack the second floor?
Do not worry! If it’s with that Petit Gongdu, that kind of doggie is a piece of cake!
I remembered the kobold I encountered on the second floor.
At the time, I lured him into a trap and caught him, but now that I think about it, I didn’t need to do that at all.
“Anyway, he has 10 bolts.”
If you count the number of bolts he shot on the 2nd floor and the number of bolts I shot on the 3rd floor, that’s about it.
And there was only one kobold on the second floor.
The most dangerous thing is the surprise attack as soon as you reach the second floor.
Putting all of this together, the strategy was simple.
[Petit Gongdu]: As soon as you arrive on the second floor, jump out. The guy is in the back.
He has about 10 bolts, so if you make him shoot all of them, he’ll be pyorrong!
At that time, you just need to thresh it.
Yes. Now that I think about it, the second floor’s task was to survive by avoiding surprise attacks and pursuits.
The embarrassment caused by the surprise attack and the sense of danger that he might die.
The continued pursuit and widening wounds narrowed the field of view and consequently made the easy road turn around.
Meanwhile, the field is a jungle. It had the effect of making the kobold invisible, but on the other hand, it also had a role in drastically reducing its accuracy.
It will be considerate for beginners. I’m going to leave a hole in the middle of the day.
It’s a thoroughly planned fight.
So it’s supposed to be a tutorial.
“Isn’t this really made by the devil?”
The top itself is also a place that makes no sense.
It is certain that something transcendent, be it a god or a demon, is involved.
In the yard where there are Hunters who openly act as priests.
I don’t know if there is a faith that didn’t exist like this.
I just hope that Nyan Nyang Punch will survive.
I smiled and shrugged my shoulders.
“Who cares about whom? I have to take good care of myself.”
I’ve done everything I can with this.
The rest is up to Nyangnyang Punch.
If possible, I want you to live.
It’s not because I have a special love for humanity. That’s why the contribution score goes up.
“What will you give me when you get 100 points?”
I hurriedly checked the title, but nothing came to mind.
Even the star-gazing eyes, an S-class power, are not omnipotent.
It provides a lot of information, but some information is invisible and some is limited.
A trap right there.
[Going to the underworld pit]
– Directly to the underworld! Because it’s real?
The description of the pit is also constantly changing.
Although the explanation of death does not change.
Furthermore, it is not clear how to die or under what conditions it is activated.
I mean it doesn’t show everything.
-Ugh
I turned off the community.
Let’s write the first floor strategy later.
If you put everything up at once, only the bottom will run out.
It’s good to grab attention in the beginning, but if you don’t post regularly, interest will quickly fade.
So let’s do what I can for now.
It’s not long, but one thing I learned while climbing the tower.
“The tower encourages challenges.”
And still on the third floor there are more places worth exploring.
Right there. The only two non-triggered instant death traps.
The third floor is safe, so you can touch it.
I cautiously approached the pit trap and slammed it with my spear.
-Tuong!
“Empty?”
There is an empty sound inside.
That’s all. Unlike the others, it also had scratches.
Durability is not that strong.
then.
“Let’s break it down!”
I gripped the spear and hit the trap without rest.
– Kang!
– Quaang!
-Koo-gu-gu-gung!
Soon the cracks could break the floor of the liver.
The floor disappears as if collapsing at once.
and underneath it.
“hmm?”
Surprisingly, there was nothing special.
A pit about 2 meters long.
If it’s deep, it’s deep, but it’s not a height that will kill you instantly.
Moreover, there were no spears or blades embedded in the bottom.
Only one. There was something that stood out.
“jewel?”
It was a purple jewel that emitted a strange light.
It looked like amethyst or tanzanite, but it was quite large.
How about a table tennis ball? -I made a way out with
a chin
rope and picked up the jewel placed right in the middle of the trap.
It emits light softly and at the same time, lukewarm warmth rises.
It was to the extent that I even had the illusion that the strange power wriggling was like a living thing, but I think I saw it somewhere.
I glared at the jewel, and soon the power was manifested.
[Intermediate Arcane gem (A)]
– A gem containing powerful energy. Creates a huge explosion when certain conditions are met.
– A noble item containing 1% of the Philosopher’s Stone.
-It is also used as the heart of a homunculus or high-class golem.
“A grade item!”
I was startled and added strength to the hand holding the jewel.
Nothing else, put an A-class item in a trap?
Isn’t it too much to do?
I can even feel the malice that I will surely kill the person who falls into the trap.
It’s even an arcane gem.
A treasure for wizards.
“Crazy. really.”
Representatively known magical materials include magic stones and mana stones.
There was a difference between whether it came from a monster or was mined, but the fact that it was a crystal containing mana did not change.
The same goes for Arcane Gems.
“Not all energy sources are the same.”
As there are various types and grades, there are various opinions, but experts speak in unison.
Arcane Gems are the best.
because.
“Even if it is the lowest grade, it produces the same level of output as a higher grade mana stone.”
What’s more, the one I’m holding is an intermediate level.
In fact, it means that you can perform a performance that is impossible with magic stones or mana stones.
If the above two are thermal power plants, Arcane Gems are nuclear power plants.
It’s not something I dare to scold.
There are reasons for this difference.
“Even though it’s a little, it contains a Philosopher’s Stone.”
It is very precious.
Philosopher’s Stone is the essence of alchemy.
It is a mysterious material that cannot be reproduced with modern technology.
No prototype has ever been found.
I’m just guessing that an item containing a Philosopher’s Stone comes out from time to time and is real.
Whether it is for practical use or for research purposes, it is certain that it has high value.
“It seems that the value goes up depending on the maker.”
I hurriedly looked at the back of the jewel.
Arcane Gems are not common items. We are artificially created by unknown beings.
As with all crafts, the performance was different depending on the maker.
Intaglio fine letters. Pronunciation of the letters in the alphabet.
“…John Trailer.”
He was the first person I had heard of.
I looked back at my memory, but I don’t know.
Are you a minor character?
It’s been awhile since I’ve been scratching my head.
– Dig!
power was exercised.
[John Trailer]
– A wise man who climbed to the 92nd floor in the distant past.
– Left alone, he tried to attack the tower by creating an artificial life form, the Homunculus.
– Why don’t you admire his achievements by looking at the jewels once in a while?
“The 92nd floor?”
I couldn’t help but doubt my eyes.
Currently, the top of the tower pioneered by mankind is the 64th floor, where the American Demi Dial has risen.
He said that he hadn’t even climbed the 70th floor yet.
By the way, it’s the 92nd floor.
“no way?”
I frowned.
Doesn’t the tower only exist now?
It may have appeared somewhere other than Earth in the past.
In the first place, even monsters are not creatures of Earth.
It was a plausible inference.
Artificial constructions from dungeons.
Items and artifacts that must have been used by humans.
It’s rare, but even the text written on the item.
There were characters that did not exist on Earth, but there were also those that were similar to the characters we use today.
“Come to think of it, I think I’ve read similar papers in professional journals.”
Although there was a severe leap of logic and there was no clear physical evidence, it was overblown.
“It’s not the time to leisurely think about things like that.”
After thinking for a while, I packed the Arcane Gems in my backpack and got out of the pit.
Because the important thing to me is to climb the tower.
It’s still on the 3rd floor. There is a long way to go.
“There is only one left.”
He shrugged and moved forward.
The last trap to look at before going up to the 4th floor is the black tile.
I’m honestly a little scared.
I could have guessed how the earth pit trap would be triggered, but I don’t know the principle itself.
“Can I touch you?”
will it be?
Because I said it’s safe.
Still, in case you don’t know
-Sueug
I put my left little finger on the trap while lying flat on the floor.
If I had to throw away one of my bodies, I thought this one would be the least useful.
ensuing darkness.
It’s been a while since I put my finger on it, but there’s no reaction.
[3rd floor]
-It’s safe.
The notification window shown through authority is the same.
I was scared for nothing
I gently wrapped my little finger around it and stroked it, looking for the knife.
Since it is a tile type, I think I will have to dig it out with something sharp.
– Kak!
I poked between the tiles, but it went inside.
If you slowly lift it with the principle of leverage here.
-Jjaeok
“Yes!”
Tile lifts easily.
Fortunately, it doesn’t look like there was glue attached to the floor.
The cause seemed to be the scroll placed inside the tile.
A scroll depicting a magic circle that is difficult to even look at.
Even though it was just paper, the energy I felt was unusual.
When his true identity was revealed through authority.
[Burst Frame Scroll (A)]
-Emits powerful flames.
-Single use.
“Come.”
I had no choice but to open my mouth.
A-class attack scroll. It is also an item with a powerful flame-type skill.
If I remember correctly, it seems to have sold for around 10 million won at the Hunter Market.
Although it was a one-off, it could have saved his life depending on the occasion.
“The third floor is a treasure trove.”
It’s like a generous dungeon.
I folded the scroll finely and put it in my breast pocket.
The pocket was the perfect place to take it out even if one arm was blown off.
Of course, I felt sad at the thought of losing a part of my body, but what can I do?
That’s where I am.
bang bang.
I knocked on my pocket.
It’s light, but it’s sturdy as if you’re wearing a bulletproof vest.
“Two floors ahead until clearing the tutorial.”
It wasn’t too far to the 6th floor.
