Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 272

272 Taylor’s

situation was shit.

A village half-destroyed by surprise and few survivors.

Maybe a dozen or so survived?

Excluding the wounded, there are only 9 people alive.

Because the rest were so bad that they couldn’t even move.

from what?

“Kiyaaaaaagh!”

“Kaaaa!”

Mestoca and larvae, the size of which seemed to have just shed, were rampaging.

What I saw was right.

The town was swept away by a starburst.

Not by the Mestoka horde coming from outside, but by the guys from under the village.

If you really don’t know, you have no choice but to be in a situation.

Who would think there would be larvae growing under the village?

Even those who have protected the village for a long time.

During that time, nothing like this would have happened.

-Kirik

I fixed my sword and shot forward.

Even a larva is a 5-star monster.

Mestoca, which is small in size because it hasn’t shed a few times over there, should be considered about 6 stars.

Maybe stronger, but weak compared to an adult mestoca.

All villagers are NPCs.

It wouldn’t be difficult to sort out these bastards as they were the ones who had risen to the top.

“Keugh! My body is not listening.”

“Did their larvae use poison?”

“Don’t talk nonsense, fight first!”

Everyone is in bad shape.

Even just being attacked by surprise is a fatal blow, but it seems that he is also poisoned by poison.

Let’s leave it like that until here.

Because it’s not just larvae.

It’s only small in size, but there are mestoca. Poison flows through their bodies.

But the real problem is something else.

“Bayard, if you’re done now, you’ll have to pay with your life!”

“I told you I wasn’t the cause! He must have just wanted to stab me somehow!”

Bayard and Emila, who could be called the best forces in the village, were holding each other in check.

What are you doing when you need to cooperate with each other?

The problem is that the few remaining villagers are also divided into two categories.

“If Bayard was the problem, it happened a long time ago.

“shut up! So you’re not infected?”

“It’s been over two years since I was infected! Do you feel like you got stabbed in the back? what’s up Even if you get infected, there is a way to stay fine!”

“Emila, you have a thick face after making Duray die like that!”

I will turn

what kind of conversation is this

It seems like it’s a fait accompli that Bayard was infected, and it was Emila who caused Duray to die?

Wasn’t Emila Duray’s lover?

It’s obvious that Taylor’s son must have been the culprit that the town ended up like this.

He’s the one who sends the letter with the egg in it, but there’s no law saying you shouldn’t release the egg here.

“My bones hurt.”

“Geek geg.”

Deokchun shakes his head as if agreeing.

As expected, you are the only one who can relate to me, Deokchun.

“huh? You’re all right!”

“Gww!”

“Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Deokchun jumped up and kicked Deodeok sitting on my shoulder and took his place.

A guy who glared at Deodeok with eyes asking where he dared to cross.

Deodeok, who had been slumped on the floor and shuddered, is hot.

“Kiaaa!”

“On him?”

Whoa. Don’t mess around.

I know you’ve become stronger, but this strong young creature has become a gangster.

I comforted the guy who was running around for the precious Deodeok’s life.

total mess.

continuation of the opening.

Let’s start with tidying up.

-Suddenly!

First, the larvae were cut.

Attack with slaughter.

Along with him, Deokchun spits acid.

– Chii Ik!

An immature mestoca whose flesh melts as it is.

I don’t think I’ve gotten an outer shell that’s the size of an adult yet.

As for the larvae…

[Scream of the soul (SS)]

“Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

Deodeok came out.

creepy screams.

Even the villagers who were slashing at each other stop in fright.

You were S-class before, but when did you grow up to SS-class?

At least they could hold on by screaming while leaving me behind, but the others didn’t.

It was because even among those strong NPCs, there were people with nosebleeds.

It must have been damaged internally.

What about the larvae and semi-adult mestocas that were directly attacked?

“Kaaaaa!”

“Kihyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”

The body staggers and suffers.

It’s a bonus to smash the surroundings every time you wriggle your huge body.

That would be too.

[Mestocca Larva]

-5 star monster.

– Extremely dislikes Mandrake’s screams.

-The ooze of mandrake is fatally applied.

[Mestoka (semi-adult)]

-6 stars or higher.

– Mandrake’s scream can break your mood.

-Avoid mandrakes even after reaching adulthood.

Mandrake itself was Mestoca’s nemesis.

Maybe it’s because I brought Deodeok, and information I haven’t seen before has been added.

Somehow, even on the 43rd floor, the Mestoca larvae didn’t even go to the place where Deodeok was.

In an instant, the situation is settled.

The incapacitated larvae and semi-adults were quickly destroyed.

Deodeok screamed and after that, it was over after a few knife cuts.

The villagers also helped me, probably thinking that we should start with probation.

“Cleaning is over.”

“Damn it.”

Those who mourned the dead villagers confronted them with bloody faces.

A faction divided on the basis of Bayard and Emilla.

Whether or not they pointed their teeth at each other, they simply ignored them and looked around.

We need to find Taylor.

the culprit of everything.

It was good to casually pass by because he had no presence, but not now.

I found it while using my powers.

Well, there aren’t many people, so I found it quickly.

It’s the Bayard forces that he’s attached to.

Then it is.

He doesn’t want to clear the 61st floor.

Emila knows how to clear and has the ability to do so.

“You must have had a hard time, but I’m sorry for showing you an ugly side, Evileye.”

“It must be all your fault.”

The usual atmosphere is Emila, where she goes and lives.

A sword was already in her hand, and what appeared to be spirits were floating in the air.

Guys who radiate powerful energy even when they pretend to.

[Higher Fire Spirit]

-An alter ego made from part of NPC Delta’s power.

[Superlative Water Spirit]

-An alter ego created from part of NPC Elicob’s power.

[Superlative Spirit of Wind]

-An alter ego created from part of NPC Howen’s power.

it’s top notch

The spirit is a strict identity system.

The Mobilidic I met on the 40th floor was an intermediate level spirit.

Of course, each object is different, and the level will be divided depending on how much you climbed the tower, but it was clear that it was quite strong.

Even if the summoned spirits over there are not the main body, but part of the power.

I can’t help it. The spirit world has been destroyed, and the only remaining spirits are the NPCs belonging to the tower.

There is no way that those who are confined to the restrictions of the system can be summoned arbitrarily.

‘They say it’s a Royal Druid, but one skill is certain. I thought he was simply a healer.’

Four of them stood behind her.

“Bayard, anyway, cheating on us is wrong.”

“If you were really sure, you should have been honest.”

“Don’t be cocky, traitor.”

A face full of betrayal.

Anyway, I would have thought the real Bayard was infected.

Deokchun had a good appetite for a reason.

In many ways, the justification seemed to be on this side.

“To be honest, are you okay? under! Bullshit is good enough, Emila.”

Bayard wrinkled his nose and raised his speculation.

“My brother and I can survive even if we get infected. Did you say it was a betrayal because our tribe is good at sealing?”

Quaang!

he lowered the axe.

“I was the first to fight! I was the one who devoted more to the village than anyone else, and there is no one here who does not owe me his life!”

As if his words were not wrong, the NPCs on Emila’s side hesitate slightly.

The village representative wouldn’t have been free.

“Me and my younger brother sealed the eggs that had dug into our bodies in exchange for some of our strength.”

I understand now.

I wondered why Deokchun got bitten on the head when he ran, but he lost some of his strength.

“The way to clear the 61st floor is to overcome disaster. My brother and I were able to do just that. It was fine as long as we were the only people alive in the village.”

That’s right.

He and his brother have already beaten the infection.

There is also the power to kill Mestoka.

Even so, there is only one reason to stay here.

Unlike climbers, NPCs are given tasks by village.

It’s not that the two of them overcame each other. It’s something everyone in town has to overcome.

In other words, if only Bayard and his brother survived as time passed, the 61st floor could be cleared automatically.

No, if I had a slightly worse mind, I would have finished it faster.

Killing villagers or subtly putting them in danger when fighting Mestoca. There were many ways.

And yet it did not.

There’s no one in this room who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

“I found a way to live together. Everyone has been through the same damn thing, so especially you.”

Baird pointed the ax at Emila.

“I was more patient because I had my sister’s lover. Duray trusted you, Emila. So I told you the truth.”

“…shut up that mouth.”

Emila bites her lip.

Before going to town number 3, Emila said. Duray said he was infected.

I don’t know if he even knew that it didn’t matter if he got infected, but apparently he didn’t believe it. I see your face turn pale.

I would have doubted it too. I’m fine after being infected, who would believe me?

It was actually true, though.

“Even though you didn’t gossip about saving Duray, my brother was still alive. Because of you, it spread that Duray was infected! I had to kill my brother with my own hands!”

At his cry, the villagers avert their gaze.

Voices that sound like excuses.

“I’m already more than half dead. Damn, how can you believe that?”

“Did you forget the kids who lied about being infected? If it wasn’t for them, 10 more villagers would be alive.”

“It’s a rule to burn an infected person! shit.”

The fact that an infected person lies and hides the truth is what puts everyone at risk.

Those who heard the news of Duray’s infection must have been furious and put him to death.

Bayard, who was in the same situation, had no choice but to step forward himself.

If he did, he would have been in the same situation. Maybe it was a story agreed upon with my younger brother.

If the vengeance was full, it would have been full, but it would not have developed affection for the villagers.

“He asked for you even before he left. You’re the one who caused me to lose my life.”

“It was to save Duray.”

“No, it’s a disaster caused by an ojilap.”

If Emila hadn’t wandered around looking for a way, the villagers wouldn’t have known.

Maybe it wouldn’t have happened if Duray had been silent to Emila.

The cause doesn’t matter. I don’t even know the process.

thanks i knew it

Why did the two of you get along badly?

There was silence, but the tension rose.

“Is there anything else you want to say?”

“doesn’t exist.”

Bayard and Emila take up their respective weapons.

The same goes for the NPCs behind them.

No matter what misunderstandings there may have been, emotions have already formed and trust has been shattered.

From now on, when we run in the direction we believe in.

-Goo-gu-gu-gu-gung!

A suffocating spirit reverberates through the air.

His sincere killing pierces his skin sharply, and multiple skills stack on his weapon, scattering light.

An atmosphere that seems to explode if you tap it.

What was the starting point?

-Quaaaaaang!

They started running towards each other, no matter who said it first.

[Frozen Break (AAA) Lv.5]

[Hellfire Pilgrim (AA)]

[Rainbow Bridge (S)]

I split them.

Soaring flames and ice walls.

Originally, it was a rainbow bridge that should have been used as a mobile device.

Come to think of it, there is an indestructible option.

I looked at the NPCs who stopped with the rainbow bridge in the middle.

Those who were bumping into each other are taken aback by the sudden obstacle.

The path was blocked by a climber.

“Aren’t you going to put this away?”

“What’s so hard!”

people shouting something.

You have to beat it to keep this bridge from collapsing.

I’m still confused, so can you help me?

[Aurora Beam (S) Lv.3]

-Chiyuuuuuu!

He fired a beam at them without hesitation.

People who threw themselves, not knowing that they would attack.

“A madman!”

“Are you going to try it!”

“It doesn’t matter if you are a climber. If you want to fight, you have to see it as an enemy!”

He looked down at the excited crowd and raised his sword.

Did everyone live together in one place and it was stressful? why are you so extreme

Isn’t it strange? Aren’t you suspicious?

A secret that was hidden for over two years is now coming out?

At this time, the larva and semi-adult go wild inside the village?

Wouldn’t Emila be an idiot and tell the truth about Duray?

Of course, at the timing of the terror attack in village 3, village 12 also reached this point.

that’s too much

It’s so blatant that it’s ridiculous.

The puzzles in my head fit together.

“Everybody calm down.”

The timing to catch everyone’s attention.

I pointed my sword at Taylor, who had fallen behind.

“Don’t be swayed by the Tower cult over there.”
