Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 433
Chapter 434 Altar of Karsta
I pulled out the sword that had been inserted into the monster’s head.
Is this a monster? It looks like slime, but if you hit it hard, it hardens.
I know a lot about monsters because I have studied them, but I don’t know much about monsters.
I think it’s a monster because it’s roughly possessing demonic energy.
“Really later, when demons or monsters from other dimensions come to the gate, it will be a mess.”
“To that.”
It’s about monsters. There are many things we know about monsters because our world has also experienced them, but most people probably don’t even know that monsters or things like that exist.
I know it because I came up to the upper floors, but the people outside only went up to the beginning of the 60th floor.
Even these goddamn monsters have a higher grade than monsters and have demonic energy, so you must have divine power to inflict great damage.
First of all, it’s a living being, so if you wield normal skills or weapons, you can catch it, but it’s a level where you can’t catch a disaster properly, so even if only a 10th grade monster appears, it’s a catastrophe.
It’s not how I can do it right now, so I’m going over.
“This is the second.”
I went into the place where the monster was and took out the box.
some kind of dungeon. Inside, there was a 12th grade monster that appeared from nowhere.
It was weaker than I thought, probably because it had starved for a long time, but it was a monster that was different from a 6-star monster.
If you’re going to hide treasure, hide it moderately, and even put the monsters in there, so it’s annoying to those who find it.
I checked the elixir in my inventory.
[Petluca’s Magic Crystal (S)]
-An elixir made by condensing Petluca’s demonic energy, who has risen to the ranks of the great devil.
-Condolences to Petruca who died in the Great War of the Heavenly Demon!
– There are many people who are looking for his traces.
Before coming here, there was an elixir that could raise demonic energy.
To be precise, it was the core of the Great Devil.
It is the great evil that participated in the Great War of the Heavenly Demons… It was made with the power of such an existence, so if the bereaved family knew about it, their eyes would roll over.
It’s unfair that he died in battle, but even the magician was chosen.
Because of this, I couldn’t take it to the Demon Realm and hid it in the Purgatory Realm.
The demon Karstar is also insane. How do you think of making an elixir as a veteran?
Hey, he must have risen to the position of grand duke because he is alive even though he has been doing these things.
Anyway, I’ll make sure I use the elixir well.
“What do you want to have here?”
opened the box
I was worried that the box might have a trap, but it wasn’t.
“Oh oh?”
After checking the contents, I narrowed my eyes.
what is this.
No, I know what it is, but why is it like this?
What came out of the box was none other than a rattle…
isn’t that right? A toy used to play with a baby.
[Rattle prepared by Fleta (S)]
-The rattle prepared by Fleta, the traitor of the first heaven, when she came over to the underworld.
– Specially designed for future children!
-Fleta and her husband won’t stand still if they find out about the theft!
– If you shake it to a child, it restores vigor, the evil recedes, and it becomes healthy.
Speaking of rattles, it’s second to the fact that it’s an S grade.
“Fletta is that angel.”
The master of the Fallen Angel’s Sword, a weapon that is still often used today.
The traitor of the 1st Heaven that put an end to the Great War of the Heavenly Demons.
The owner and NPC in charge of the arena on the 34th floor.
And above all…
“Kildereth’s ex-wife.”
Did the two of you have plans for children? No, that’s it, even though it’s the private lives of those nobles.
“Wow… he’s real. It’s not anyone else, it’s stealing Kilderless’s wife’s stuff.”
Aside from everything else, isn’t this a real grand duke, a nabal, and stealing at the risk of one’s life?
It’s funny that the only thing stolen like that is a rattle, but if it’s this level of kleptomania, it’s a dagger.
Doing something that might incur the wrath of the master of both worlds.
It’s also funny that I hid it in the purgatory realm as if I didn’t think it was this after I peeped at it.
If that’s the case, don’t commit theft.
Got this once too. I don’t know about anything else, but since it’s an S-grade item, I can use it in any way. There might be a demand somewhere.
Rattle on elixir.
There is only one thing left.
I checked the treasure map.
“I must enter the realm of monsters.”
The last treasure lies there.
You have to go inside to meet the top hunters and members.
If there’s one thing that gets in the way…
“I think this treasure is the most dangerous.”
The map also had pictures and brief descriptions of where the treasure was hidden.
As if the rattle I had just obtained had a picture of a monster painted on it.
In the last treasure, there is an altar that looks suspicious to Chuck, and there is a dangerous phrase written next to it.
There are also scrawled letters in the margins.
-seal. should i remove it? I will find you someday I’m the best! might die So that demons cannot enter. A genius idea came to mind!
It sounds like you’ve been in a lot of trouble. Are you the type who struggles with buying rattles?
“I must be a little nervous.”
I grabbed the map and entered the realm of monsters.
* * *
The realm of monsters is a place where even demons do not set foot.
It is not for nothing that climbers who have finished the scenario are left here.
It plays the role of limiting the new climbers’ scenarios so that they cannot intervene as much as possible, and at the same time, it also functions to manage the monsters in the depths.
It is a place where top predators have settled and the ecosystem is balanced.
“The area is clear.”
Two days after entering the realm of monsters. Little by little I was getting used to this place.
When I first came in, I had a hard time because of the guys who rushed at me without a break.
If you catch one, the other will attack, and if there is a commotion, the stimulated monsters will go mad.
At least, if you catch the predators, the ones below them become calm, but that’s for a while. Because there was a battle for rank to occupy the empty predator seat.
Should I say that I can’t stand still for a moment and make a fuss?
It is no different from the demons who fought fiercely to take over purgatory.
“This is why the things that came from the demon realm are the problem.”
I found a way to get around relatively freely while taking the blood of a higher level monster and running away, so it’s called walking the boundary line.
Each predator has its own territory, and in the case of top predators, the boundaries are clearly defined.
A place where monsters, who are prey, do not even bother to invade the territory and be eaten.
After going through it a few times, I was able to recognize the boundaries, albeit roughly, and move along the boundaries of each area.
Thanks to this, I had to go round and round to my destination, but this side was better than wasting my energy.
That too is over now.
Finally, I was able to find the structure I was talking about on the map.
“Bone Pillar.”
A place where the ribs of super-large monsters rise like an entrance.
I don’t know about other places, but in the depths, I was able to find the corpses and bones of super-large monsters.
Thanks to that, it was tricky to find what it said on the map, but this time it’s clear.
I don’t know if you look at it passing by, but if you look closely, there are patterns artificially engraved on the bones.
reverse pentagram.
devil symbol.
I caught my breath and looked at the mage.
If the devil is hiding something, you will inevitably feel the devil.
Whether it’s a device made to block intruders or an aura leaking out of a treasure, I’ll do it.
It’s the same reason that I hid it in the realm of monsters. Demons also have demonic energy, so it’s not easy to notice if you’re among them.
Unless you didn’t know there was a treasure there anyway.
“If you know something is hidden and you find it, you can’t not know it.”
It is felt.
A weak but fixed magic power.
If there’s one strange thing, it’s that you can feel the divine power.
I wondered if it was an illusion because it was faint, but the divine power was correct. To the point where I couldn’t feel it if the divine power wasn’t strengthened.
I don’t know why, but I’m sure I’ve come to the right place. It didn’t make sense that there was something naturally divine in this place.
-Kaga-gaga
pierced each sword.
Something touched the sword that went in without resistance.
I scratched it all the way, but it seems pretty solid.
“Okay, let’s see.”
[Dig (AA) Lv. 2]
-Deudeduddeuddeudeuddeuddeuk
First of all, the ground was dug up and the bottom was exposed.
door to be seen.
A thick metal door embossed with the image of a demon appeared.
A handle in the shape of a demon with a wide open mouth.
I reached out there.
[Would you like to enter the Altar of Dungeon Karsta?]
“Oh, my God. Dungeon?”
He twisted his lips.
A real dungeon appears?
Yes, I haven’t seen any dungeons or ruins in the meantime. It’s time to slowly show up.
It’s a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of
Because you don’t know what restrictions and threats the dungeon will have.
Wasn’t the labyrinth that he had gone through before also like that? A structure where the shop window is sealed and food cannot be bought.
Even though I have the cooking skill, there is a possibility that there are no monsters or other creatures in the dungeon.
There was no law saying that skills or titles would not be sealed suddenly.
Especially this time.
“There are no entry conditions.”
This means that anyone can enter without burden.
Of course, it was free to go in, but not free to go out.
Did you know that once you enter, you will not be able to leave until certain conditions are met?
I asked myself. enter or not Am I ready enough now?
After checking the equipment and items I had, such as my inventory, treasure bag, and subspace bracelet, I thought deeply and seriously for 10 seconds.
“Enter.”
-Kurrureurreung
[Enter the Karsta Altar for the first time on the server.]
[You will be given 10000 points.]
I chose to enter.
If you’re going to go in anyway, there’s no need to hesitate.
The 10000 points that came with the first title on the server are bonus.
What I’m aiming for is the hidden treasure inside.
-Sssssssssssssssssssss I
was able to enter the dungeon for a while even though I felt like I was being sucked in.
* * *
As soon as I felt my feet touch the floor, I drew my sword. Because there is no time to be more exposed to attacks than immediately after entering a dungeon.
It was a semi-reflective act.
“hmm?”
I could feel something strange.
There is no sign of anything. There is only cool air.
I looked around to see if there were any traps, but there were none. The same goes for checking with authority.
It’s just an empty hallway.
Besides, looking at the back, the entrance I came in is still there.
Let’s warm our hands a little.
[Do you want to leave the dungeon?]
The phrase asking if you want to go out came to mind.
is this a dungeon? It’s an automatic door.
scratched his head Are there really no restrictions?
I checked all the skill title shop windows, but they work normally.
Slightly steamed.
what’s inside
After trudging forward and turning around the alley a few times, you can see the end of the dungeon.
empty space. It’s just a shelf with a few clutter on it.
When I ran my finger across it, dust accumulated.
This is just an empty dungeon after all
of it was robbed.
Because I came in first.
Originally, the name of the dungeon was Altar of Karsta. However, there is no altar here, which means that this is not all.
“Wow, look at the medicine. If the first entrant leaves without finding anything, it is designed so that subsequent intruders think it is a dungeon that has already been robbed.”
Yes, if you really want to hide something, you should do it like this.
Either fake it as if it’s nothing, or place fake treasures to pretend it’s real.
Nice try, but it doesn’t work for me.
[The SS-class powerful star-watching eyes are displayed.]
I carefully examined the space where the shelves were piled up.
Still no hidden spaces or anything like that. No traps or anything made invisible.
Instead…..
[Plain water bottle]
-The item itself is plain.
– Applied to the Jinbeop.
– If you match well, the truth might come out?
I was able to know the reality of the objects disguised as ordinary.
arithmetic.
A type of magic that creates an effect similar to a magic circle by arranging objects.
-Zuzuzuzuzuzu
The power is strengthened and a line of faint light is connected.
I don’t know what the truth is.
“I will release you.”
He raised an eyebrow and picked up a water bottle.
