Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 388

Chapter 388

The quest for the western kingdom continued. I went around to find a stronghold from the border of the World Forest to a distance, but to no avail.

At this point, I wonder if I’m playing hide and seek. I don’t know where everyone is hiding.

There were, however, occasional places where there were traces of people.

“It’s also bad here.”

“Found the poster.”

“Hmm, it seems like it’s been a while since you left? There is a white bone here.”

There were only traces, no one was there. If the corpse had turned into a white bone, it means that quite a bit of time has passed.

Of course, the temperature is high and the humidity is high, so it may be that the decay occurred quickly.

The bones were not scattered. Meaning the monster didn’t touch it.

‘Coming to think of it, there weren’t that many monsters.’

It’s a world that’s on the verge of destruction, so it’s not like monsters will come in front of you every time you take a step, but even with that in mind, it feels a bit small.

It seems that the monsters in the area have been completely cleaned up before leaving.

Since it was used as a base, the subjugation must have been carried out for safety.

If you think of common sense, that’s right…

“Don’t all the places you’ve passed have similar battle traces?”

“There are a lot of overlaps.”

The lick nodded at my question.

It’s not just about the weapon used. After all, if you use cold weapons, there aren’t that many types.

Cut, stab, crush. It’s like this, I’m just saying that.

‘It means they split it all the way to the bottom.’

A few peculiarities remain.

The first traces of cutting the ground. It seems that the sword was struck with the force of one blow, and a sword scar of several tens of meters was left on the ground.

Next, the caustic fluid.

There are traces of melting down buildings and monsters. I don’t know what kind. Whether it’s in the form of mist, venom, or gel like slime.

In addition, there were a few distinctive battle traces that left individual tastes intact.

when considered holistically.

“The people who moved along the base did the subjugation.”

came to this conclusion.

A group of people toured the stronghold like us and wiped out the monsters on the way.

is it possible The World Forest is one of the last bastions. The people who covet this place and the monsters who flocked to bite them.

Ancients and Ancients. Monster Wave and Calamity.

There is no circumstance that there was a fragment of chaos, but this alone is a difficulty that can not be solved by a moderately skilled person.

It is difficult to determine the exact level, but a rough comparison is possible.

I just need to think about whether the members and I can do the same thing.

Can we move while annihilating nearby monsters?

‘I can do it.’

If a catastrophe with special rules appears, it may struggle a little, but eventually it will be resolved.

Deokchun is there, and I can resist the rule of disaster as my chaos level exceeds 100 points.

The Ancients and First Monsters were different depending on their compatibility, but it didn’t seem like they would be able to catch them.

Knock knock. I tapped my fingers.

‘Maybe he’s on the same level as us.’

You should keep in mind the possibility of being stronger.

For now, we should think of it as being on the same level as us.

People who climbed the 90th floor. If Kilduless or Alios Rilka had moved, there would be no need for such a cumbersome fight.

At least not to that level.

“Don’t you guys think that? People who follow the poster?”

“The paths overlap. This seems like a good possibility.”

I agree with Nyanpun and Lick.

Because I was thinking the same thing.

The hair loss man who patrolled the area after leaving for a while also pouts and admits it.

“There are signs of movement. It looks like they moved in groups. I don’t know the exact number.”

A trail was found on the way from where we were to the place where we assumed the next base would be.

A path that people walk on. The fact that it remains means that it hasn’t been very long since they moved.

Considering the fertility of demonic plants, the road would have been covered with grass in no time.

People on the way to salvation.

An unidentified powerful man who pierced the way for them to move.

Those who prepared for a long time to occupy the World Forest have all disappeared.

Their gathering place is the Western Kingdom.

All the answers must be there.

I checked the map.

‘Even considering the terrain has changed, I can arrive in a week.’

If you hurry, it will arrive sooner than that.

Their purpose is unknown. There was nothing wrong with moving quickly.

* * *

Western kingdoms. It seemed like there was an official name, but Hidden Garden just called it that way.

It wasn’t a place that existed in the first place. It was just that the survivors flocked to the destroyed kingdom and called it a kingdom.

Maybe that’s why I didn’t see any sentries or anything like that until I arrived nearby.

ghost town. There are only half-destroyed buildings lying haphazardly.

Where people live, it seems that you have to go inside more to come out.

I wonder if real people live there.

“This is almost a desert.”

“It says plains on the map.”

“Do you still believe in that!”

desert. That’s right. It’s not made of sand, but it’s no different from a wasteland.

As if the harsh environment is the same for monsters, their bones are rolling all over the place.

to settle in a place like this It seems that the situation of mankind in this world is also quite bad.

There must have been some merit, so I would have settled here.

-While I

was walking, looking around to see if there was anything there, the licker raised his hand.

Everyone shut up and killed the human being.

I pressed myself close to the wall and looked in the direction the licker was looking.

“Hoo-wook. after. There are only a few left. Just hold on a little longer.”

A man with a cloth covering his head and upper body was walking around holding a sword.

What does it mean to hold on a little longer?

If there is one thing that stands out.

‘You have a poster.’

That there is a poster of the road to salvation in his arms.

Maybe it was sewn on, but it was attached to the clothes. As if to prove that he came to see this.

A scab of blood dried from the heat sits on the sword. It was proof that he had killed someone.

“Die!”

“This profit!”

Another man waiting on the half-tilted wall plunged a dagger into the man’s neck.

“Are you doing a battle royale?”

“Is it okay to say that this is a human kingdom?”

“Is it a piece of public order? This can be happen.”

The members whispered so that he couldn’t hear them.

The guy who killed the man giggled and pulled out the sword stuck in his neck.

Instant death without the need to confirm kill.

“It stabbed me cleanly.”

“To that.”

Maybe it’s because of the big difference in skill level, but I think I’m halfway enjoying it. So I’ll even scream while ambush.

The movement was actually good.

“Shall we catch him?”

“Looks like it should.”

Let’s see. It’s good to go out on your own, but you don’t know if there are others around you.

There’s no way the guy in the situation where we’re killing each other can’t let go of the tension.

“Deokchun, can you beat him?”

“Wow.”

A guy who clenches his fists without thinking twice.

okay. I believe in our king god frog.

“Let’s surround ourselves while Deokchun takes care of him. You never know who they might be.”

“okay.”

“I go left.”

“I’ll go right.”

The hair loss man stayed here, and the lick left and I moved to the right with Nyangfun and headed to the far end.

Since they occupied all sides, they should be able to respond in case of an unexpected situation.

“What is this?”

“To that.”

Lee, who was searching for the dead man’s arms, frowned when he saw Deokchun jumping up and down.

Doubts on your face. You should know better that it is not an environment for a frog to live in.

“Even a frog is worth eating.”

Write. The guy who stole my mouth turned the dagger and threw it as it was.

If it were a normal frog, he would have been beaten up, but Deokchun is someone.

-Tup

“Huh?”

After receiving the dagger with his fingertips, Deokchun grabbed the dagger with his tongue.

“That’s it!”

“You crazy frog!”

He just rushed towards the guy.

The elongated tongue moved freely and swung the dagger, and the guy, embarrassed by the unexpected situation, evacuated backwards.

Then cry. He wrinkled his face as if he was annoyed at the fact that he was only scared of a frog and ran away.

“Everything sucks!”

I ran to kick Deokchun.

Choosing close combat… My condolences in advance.

Deokchun, who jumped sideways to avoid the foot flying toward him, cut his calf.

then jump.

The moment you meet him at eye level.

[Slap on the cheek (S)]

-Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!

His throat snapped back with a crackling sound.

It seems that the neck vertebrae did not fly off as if I had adjusted my strength appropriately. I couldn’t hear the bones spinning.

“Two.”

After spatting, Deokchun shakes off his hands and drags his legs toward me.

He also believed in our spirit creature.

Right then.

-Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

!

It seemed to see something in the air, and then it fell rapidly.

Deokchun was blocked by something that landed on the floor at a speed no different from a fall.

“This is true. There are all kinds of monsters. We have to take him.”

A man in leather clothes. There are long scars on his bald head, and a two-meter long sword is on his back.

Compared to the length, the width was thin, but compared to a normal sword, the belly was thick.

I felt it instinctively.

‘It’s this guy. Traces we saw.’

A swordsman who split the ground.

Where were you watching? why did you appear now?

His eyes turned to the fallen man.

“I’d like to get eliminated, but rules are rules, so tsk.”

Naturally, he thrust out the sword he was holding like a thunderbolt.

The target is Deokchun.

Deokchun held out the one he had just caught as a shield.

“Whoa, you’re a clever bastard, is this?”

Another guy broke in. The guy half-sitting on the roof of the building pretended to shoot an arrow.

-Peruk

Actually, something intangible flew in and pushed away the guy Deokchun held.

It has no killing power, but it is not weak. Deokchun, who suddenly became naked, and the sword falling on top of him.

[Outside armor (S)]

-Aaaaaaaang!

Deokchun, who made his body strong, withstood his blow.

With a sharp metal sound, the recoil caused the sword to rise.

A look of bewilderment appears on the prosecutor’s face.

It is now.

“Don’t hit our Deokchun, you bastards!”

“Animal abusers die!”

“Right!”

The members who showed up starting with me.

Maybe they didn’t know we were there, but they hardened their complexion, but that was for a while.

“I didn’t expect a new contestant to come.”

“Wouldn’t it be better to calm down with a blow than with words?”

The guys who have adjusted their posture are back to back.

A person who shoots a transparent bow pretends to shoot an arrow towards the sky.

-Puuuuuuuu!

A signal flare exploded.

After all, it can’t be all 2 people. I see a doll flying in the sky in the distance.

Wizard? I don’t know much about the culture of this world, but the way I dress is exactly that. as well as flying.

anyway.

“Welcome to the path of salvation. Let’s see if you deserve to go up with us.”

“Of course it won’t be easy. We’ll be honored to give you our own evaluation.”

They pointed their weapons at us.

In the meantime, Deokchun returned to me. Fortunately, there were no serious injuries, but a scratch remained on the back.

Sup. Inhaled.

“I will take care of that prosecutor.”

[The sword demon that does not give in to SS-class power is shining!]

[Sword force]

-Pahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

The sword that absorbed mana shone blue.
