Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 158
Chapter 158 Shocking Shock
Time passed when it was shocking to me, Choi Seong-mo, and Ji-hyeok Oh who were next to me.
The interrogation began without time to mend the broken mentality.
It’s mentally painful for him as well.
“Such vicious…”
“Shut up. I’m the hardest Please speak quickly.”
Hit the head of the distraught guy and asked questions.
It took a while for her mouth to twitch as if she was concerned about the pattern on her neck. As soon as he took a position to dance, he spit out information.
“You see large guilds as evil. Some of them are right.”
He seems to know that he’s doing something he doesn’t like.
The important thing is why the person who knows that is like this.
“Do you think there will be only the Safer policy and Baekhwan Korea?”
“What are you talking about?”
Are you only in Korea? Do other countries have something similar?
“okay. I don’t know. Hunters don’t have much international exchange. At least outsiders like you can’t know. Only large guilds and governments know.”
As he said, not much information about overseas hunters has been released.
Hunter is superhuman. It was an existence that deviated from common sense, and depending on how it was used, it could become a national power.
Right now, I’m putting all my energy into getting rid of the gate, but how long will it last?
A troop group made up of supermen. It was something everyone would have imagined at least once.
There’s really no way not to do that.
Therefore, the level of pioneering of each country’s hunters and related laws is controlled at the government level.
At least, there is only talk of publicity and information that was revealed when the gate exploded.
There are some that spread through anonymous sites or view tubes, but it is unknown whether they are real or fake.
“Big Candy and Guide Platform policies exist in the US, and Energy Stone and Guardian Project exist in the UK. They are the same as the Baekhuan and Safer policies, respectively.”
“It sounds like Korea isn’t the only country that spread fake tutorials.”
“It actually is.”
An incredible story.
I thought it was a national fraud, but it was a worldwide unity?
The scale grows beyond imagination.
It feels more like a conspiracy theory than a fact.
“It makes no sense. Could such a thing be possible?”
Licking also crosses his arms, probably thinking the same thing.
The same goes for Oh Ji-hyeok.
“Rather, international things are easy to hide. As you can see by turning on the community, the towers are divided by server.”
I remember that too.
It was written when I first opened the community.
[Community]
-Main server: Republic of Korea
I didn’t pay much attention to it. Was there any meaning here?
“Servers are divided for each region. Japan uses Japanese servers and Albania and Macedonia use integrated servers. The criteria are not exactly known. What is certain is that each server has a different tower ecosystem.”
“Every server has different tutorials and different monsters on each floor.”
“At least to a certain extent, that is.”
Even if each country announces a tutorial strategy, it is useless in other countries.
This makes it difficult to know whether you are lying or telling the truth.
“It’s not just a large guild, it’s that it did what the world needed, you fools.”
“Don’t go round and round, tell me exactly Seongmo Choi.”
Oh Ji-hyeok grabs him by the collar.
“From the moment the tower appeared, we are on the road to perdition. The confusion grows as the number of hunters increases.”
Seongmo Choi glared at us.
It was still a complicated face, but the eyes were sharp.
“Don’t forget that hunters are also heterogeneous beings like monsters. If you have a head, think about why the gate incidence rate increases every year! Chaos destroys the world…!”
[The token of the oath (AA) is activated.]
[Cancellation (AA) is forcibly terminated.]
-Kwajik!
Before he could finish his words, the token exploded and Seongmo Choi’s head disappeared.
It was a terrifying sight, but no one was surprised.
It’s just the sentence he left behind in my head.
tower. heterogeneous existence. fall. chaos.
“That’s it.”
Deokchun, who restored the team members, is back.
As usual, I put Deokchun on my shoulder and looked away.
Oh Ji-hyeok, who is narrowing his forehead, and Lick, who is kicking the floor with his toes.
Everyone seems to have something to think about. Same for me.
When the number of hunters increases, the gate increases.
I can see why you used the tutorial strategy.
If you don’t pass the tutorial section, you won’t become a hunter.
20% clear chance. The extreme survival rate was artificially set.
“If that statement is true.”
“It is absurd.”
Oh Ji-hyeok tried to say something, but hung up.
It seems like they all have their own reasons.
“Hunters will increase anyway. If the gates increase the same, you should think about making even one hunter stronger, idiots. What will the next generation do?”
I couldn’t quite understand.
Isn’t that a typical bomb run?
Procrastinating and avoiding work as much as possible.
It might be convenient to do that right now. If there are fewer hunters, fewer gates will appear.
But what about later?
What if the level of the hunters remains the same, but the gates increase and stronger monsters pour in?
That’s when it’s really over. A short-sighted and selfish way. Not even worthy of sympathy.
Of course, I also don’t know the exact details.
So you should find out.
‘Current large guild leaders are early hunters. Most of them are known to have reached the 50th floor. That means you can at least get clues about the tower and its destruction before you get to the 60th floor.’
I have to climb the tower anyway.
Stop when you know the details.
“First, let’s clean things up. Let’s clear first.”
“I will.”
They cheered up the atmosphere with applause.
Oh Ji-hyeok left first, and Licking looked at me quietly.
Why?
ah.
“Did I catch Choi Seong-mo? You know the psychological shock, right?”
“What are you talking about? I ended up killing it, so I caught it!”
The guy who gets mad at my words.
Don’t be too cool.
“Then a draw. Well, if you look at it, I’m 80 percent, but I’ll be generous.”
“Whoever wants! Did I win?”
“No what. You can do that.”
“hey!”
I cleared the battlefield by arguing with Lick.
* * *
[Clear the 35th floor]
[Survivors can create a new team.]
[Team composition can be up to 5 people.]
Finding the safe zone was not difficult.
‘Cause I have the power
Just in time, District 5 had four safe zones.
Our team, Oh Ji-hyeok and Lee Sang-ok’s team, the licking team.
Currently, everyone is out of the safe zone and gathered.
Surprisingly, Oh Ji-hyeok decided to join Lee Sang-ok’s team.
“I am honored to be on the team.”
“Be grateful for the permission.”
I don’t know if it’s the right choice considering the way the two of them talk.
Well done anyway. It is true that Oh Ji-hyeok is strong, but the 30th floor is definitely a team play section.
Having someone to move with is an advantage.
“Let us go up first. I’ve recovered to some extent, and I don’t really want to compete with you guys.”
After those words, Lee Sang-ok and Oh Ji-hyeok headed straight up.
Everyone waved to me to go upstairs safely, and I wanted to do the same.
“It shakes.”
“Yes, yes.”
It couldn’t be.
After the fight, he was being teased by Kildereth who returned.
I was swaying in a head-to-head position and Kildereth was perched on top of me.
You’re heavier than I thought, Kildereth.
“Okay stop.”
“Whoa! lived.”
Kildereth came down to the floor as if his anger was relieved to some extent.
I thought I would break my back
At first, the team members were surprised by the appearance of Kilderless, but now they are passing it on.
Everyone knows that I received the killderless summon ticket in the arena event on the 10th floor.
“I want to torment you more, but I don’t have much time.”
If he was in normal condition, he could have summoned Killerless for a day or so, but he used too much mana.
Meaning you can’t keep it for long.
“Pengrill told me to wait over there. It’s because I don’t like people that much. They might just come and attack you.”
“Has it become more compliant than I thought?”
“There is a saying in the demon realm. Etiquette can be physically instilled.”
aha. I see
Don’t mess around with Kildereth from now on.
He nodded and left his seat, telling his teammates that he was going somewhere for a while.
Now that the bad relationship with the large guild is over, all that remains is to complete the World Tree quest.
You must obtain the Snow Spirit’s Wreath to clear the quest given by Rilka.
The moment I was walking in the middle of the day. One question arose.
“I was curious about this before, Kildereth. Can I just leave the 10th floor and come out like this?”
“It doesn’t matter. Because NPCs constantly divide. There is another me on the 10th floor right now.”
“How is that possible?”
“That’s the top. Hmm. I can’t tell you this. It’s all here. Now let’s get down to business. Since I’ve been out for a long time, I’m going to take a walk and go home.”
“Thanks for your help Kildereth.”
I looked at Kildereth for a moment as he waved his hand and left, saying it was nothing, then looked away.
* * *
The center of District 5. Pengril was standing there.
“Come, human.”
Although his whole body was crumbling, he still had a tremendous presence.
If it was fortunate that the hostile eyes had diminished even a little, it was fortunate.
“What do you want from me?”
“Nothing else, this please.”
I took out the world tree seed from my inventory.
The guy with his eyes wide open.
“This one!”
“It is the seed of the world tree. I was asked by the last snow spirit and queen Hainu. They say you can raise it well.”
“…Hainu.”
Actually, I didn’t pick up the pen grill and said it, but it probably doesn’t matter.
Pengrill picks up the seed with a relaxed expression. I thought it was bloody, but now I’m running out of honey.
It is said that the snow spirit is the mother of druids and elves, but it seems to be real.
“thanks.”
“huh?”
I thought I heard it wrong for a moment, but it was true.
[NPC Pengrill’s favorability increases.]
“I thought the snow spirits had completely disappeared, but I never thought I’d have a new start like this.”
“I have a question, is the snow spirit so important to you?”
“We never forget our roots. There are symbolic things, but when the existence that becomes the mother disappears, we also walk the path of decline. It will be difficult to leave offspring.”
A fact I didn’t know.
“Just being able to care for the World Tree is a great honor for me. I thought all humans were garbage, but you are different. On behalf of everyone, I thank you.”
he bows his head
I scratched my head, not knowing how to react, then quietly held out my hand.
“In that sense, if you give me something nice…
” one good You deserve it.”
Pengrill takes something out of his pocket and hands it over.
[Druid’s Peace Zone (AA)]
– Purifies the contaminated area and makes it a place where life can breathe.
“It will come in handy someday.”
It’s a AA grade item, so I’d like to have it.
I nodded, and without saying a word, he bent his knees and planted the world tree seed in the ground.
At the same time, a huge amount of magic and divine power burst out of Pengrill’s body.
[The world tree sprouts!]
[All druids and elves are overjoyed!]
[The vast majority of druids and elves feel good about you!]
Messages came to mind one after another.
get the overwhelming majority Not bad.
-Kkuguguk
-Paaaaat!
The world tree that shyly sprouted on the ground for a moment began to grow rapidly.
It passed over my shoulder at the height of my knee and grew to about ten meters before I knew it.
-Saaaaaa
“Eyes?”
Snow fell from the sky.
One of them was a particularly large sphere that emitted white light.
Pengrill gently held it in his hand.
“It is the spirit of the eye. She hasn’t awakened yet, but she’ll come to her senses soon, and when she grows up, she’ll grow into a queen.”
At first it looks like this.
The time when I was curiously looking at a ball of light wriggling with a warm light.
[Eye Spirit Resurrection Quest Cleared!]
[Eye Spirit Resurrection – Only Quest]
-Hainu, who has been deprived of power by the Cold Blooded Monster for a long time, is trying to return to the seed.
-The seed will become a world tree and the snow spirit will be resurrected.
-Let’s help her find the right place.
-Reward: Snow Spirit Wreath Spirit’s Friend (Title) Seed of Resurrection
quest completion alarm popped up.
[Acquire a friend of the title Spirit.]
– All spirits treat you amicably.
Two items fell down along with the title.
Snow Spirit Wreath and the Seed of Resurrection.
[Snow Spirit Wreath (A)]
-The first wreath made by a newly born snow spirit
-Contains the pure spirit of snow.
-Used for the Elf Queen’s wedding.
[Seed of Resurrection (SSS)]
-The only item created when the World Tree is newly created
-It is a rare item that only comes out once in thousands of years.
-Can bring the dead back to life. (Time to respawn: 1 hour)
“Crazy?”
Let alone anything else, the seed of resurrection was crazy.
The first SSS class item I’ve ever seen. Is it not enough that it is the only item that can revive the dead?
It is a fraudulent item. There is no merit to me, but I already have infinite coins.
I don’t know if I go outside later.
I put two items in my inventory.
With this, the matter is over.
It seems that Pengrill is also busy taking care of the World Tree.
I have to go write a strategy post about being separated from my teammates.
I’m just trying to grow a community.
“It is pretty.”
A voice was heard from behind.
lick.
When did you come?
The timing of thinking about what to answer.
-The
licker took off his helmet.
hair flowing down with it.
Sharp jawline and long eyelashes.
“W Was it a woman?”
“Could you stop being gross with honorifics?”
It took a moment for me to open my mouth in shock.
“You thought you were the only one hiding your identity, Petit Gongdu?”
I was even more shocked by what she said next.
