Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 454
Chapter 455
The first thing to do to clear the Giant World Chapter 2 is to take over the Under City.
The beginning was to merge the existing districts into one.
That’s why I went to District 2, and it’s the same reason Diret went to District 5.
As a result of looking at the possibility, District 2 came out cooperatively, but…
“It was resolved through dialogue.”
“Keugh! A coward.”
District 5, where Diret went, didn’t seem to be the case.
Upon returning to the tavern run by the District 4 mountain giants, I saw a giant tied up.
“Who is that guy?”
“He’s the guy who manages District 5. I was able to finish it easily because I have a good friend.”
“Shut up! You brought me cowardly to buy alcohol and tied me up!”
“Oh don’t worry. I drink alcohol.”
Squeak.
Diret poured a full glass of wine and set it down in front of him.
Of course, I couldn’t drink because I was tied up.
Dereth, this guy’s personality is amazing.
“I learned from watching what you did.”
The guy looking at me and giving me a thumbs up.
Where do you make my excuses? I just don’t like my personality.
“To that.”
Deokchun gives a blank glance. Oh why again Anyone who sees it will know that my personality is not good.
That’s it.
“Is it true that District 5 also agreed to be with us?”
“of course. They said that they joined voluntarily without any coercion.”
“You were threatening me. Ah! Don’t step on it!”
“Ah mistake. It was intentional.”
It seemed unfair, but let’s let the two of them solve it on their own.
No matter what the process was, it was enough for the story to work.
“Then let’s move on according to the plan we talked about before. release the string We’ll be together anyway, but our limbs need to be free.”
“That too.”
When Dereth winked at him, the men waiting next to him loosened the rope.
It seems that the rope marks were clearly visible on the wrist, and it had been tied for quite a while.
“Whoa, what an annoying guy. How did you get involved with this guy?”
“Isn’t this what it means to like friends from your hometown?”
“Who is your hometown friend? It’s completely different. Tsk. Once I heard the story. It’s called Nuo. Did you say that you are a dwarf who refuses to perish?”
“It is a small person.”
“That or that.”
Actually, I am neither a dwarf nor a small person, but I have no intention of correcting myself.
This is a giant, and I am a stranger. It’s true that I’m small compared to them.
Although it was mixed with threats, it seems that District 5 has also decided to join in the future.
“Anyway, there’s nothing different between before and now, eh.”
Rubbing her wrists, Nuo spat out displeasure.
After hearing the story, it is said that Diret and I have known each other for a long time.
If Diret plundered in the southern grasslands, Nuo lived in the swamps next to the grasslands.
They interacted by exchanging plundered goods, and sometimes cooperated to rob other nomads.
The old adage of playing with each other was never wrong.
“So, did you have a good talk with District 2?”
“It worked out well. I came first, and I’ll come myself in a little while. I said I would come slowly because there was something to be solved.”
Farmer, the head of District 2, is also the name of the Under City.
There were too many eyes to move blindly. It was something to deal with separately.
The timing to spend time chatting about plans for the future.
–
The door of the tavern opened and a farmer entered.
He wore a shaggy beard and clothes made of animal skins, and it looked quite sturdy, as if he were wearing it in battle.
Seeing claw marks and teeth marks left by beasts.
It must have been prepared to fight at any time.
“There are two faces that are hard to see. Is it really what Evileye said?”
Almost as many as three names from the Under City gathered.
With mountain giants there, it seemed easy to take control of Undercity.
“The old man still looks healthy.”
“Old people don’t get old.”
They pretend to know each other whether they have already met each other.
“Your personality and dirty-looking face are the same, too. Nuo you also have a lot of grumpiness on your face.”
It didn’t look very friendly, but it did.
It’s not bad to growl at each other. Because in the end, they come together.
“Everyone has heard of the plan. We need to notify the two districts first.”
“I sent a messenger anyway.”
“It’s nice that the work is done quickly.”
I have no intention of rushing in. If that happened, other giants who were living ordinary lives would also suffer.
Those who have lost their hometown and gathered here, but they are destroyed after they have settled down?
It is more strange that there are no ill feelings.
The ultimate goal is to have more neutral NPCs than worshipers. To increase the number of people who resist destruction.
Is there any justification for notification? This is an important part too.
“Are you good at spreading rumors?”
“Of course. It’s like no one knows.”
“It is ambiguous to say that rumors that there is an existence that has already appeared in the prophecy are rumors.”
“I went around openly like that, but is there anyone who would accept it as a rumor?”
We had our own reasons.
Just as worshipers cry out that we must accept destruction with prophecies, we also act as a symbol of ourselves.
Let’s overcome destruction together with the savior from the prophecy.
In particular, this place has a great resistance to destruction. I wonder if there are more people who support us, at least in the Under City.
“The letter will be delivered within today.”
“Good. Then let’s move on to the next plan. Have you done any publicity?”
“Of course.”
When the Black Rat gang members left with the letter to Area 1 3, they took off their hoods and came out.
They advertised extensively for today. The existence in the prophecy is going to declare that it will resist destruction.
Most of the rulers of the Under City had already talked about joining him.
In addition to that, it was natural that people’s attention was drawn to anecdotes and information such as the story of getting rid of the second sun and the black rain.

“Is that the rumor?”
“I guess that’s right. I thought it was a rumor, but it doesn’t seem like it.”
“I heard there was a big announcement, but I think it’s real. There are also black mice.”
“There’s also Palmer and Nuo. Not serious.”
whispering people.
Public opinion is already being formed. As a result of intentionally spreading stories about me, there were quite a few people who flocked to District 4 to see me.
I went up to the podium prepared in advance.
This is the first time it has appeared in public.
“Ah, nice to meet you all. I think you must have heard a lot of rumors about me.”
For safety, guards from each district, led by Black Rat and the mountain giants Farmer and Nuo, surrounded the platform.
Strange anticipation rose in the expressions of those who confirmed their faces.
“Times have changed. You know better than anyone that destruction is coming.”
slap.
It shook the black rain in an easy-to-see bottle.
I felt it when I persuaded Palmer in District 2, but there was no better way to give the giants hope and absorb them into the same force.
“What can I say? I can’t just show it through action. you’re right. I have come to prevent destruction.”
Black rain was poured into the palm of my hand. A sticky substance.
When I spread my fingers, it stretches and flows down.
Neutralize with divine power and control with magic, then use chaos, which is still unfamiliar.
-Sueuuuuuuuuuu
The black rain has disappeared.
Maybe it’s because I’ve been practicing for a while, so it’s easier than the first time.
gaze directed at me.
He lightly shook his hand and spoke.
“Come with us. Let’s try to stop that damn destruction or something.”
chin. Caught the podium.
“Destruction is not something to be accepted. You will resist to the end.”
This is true.
If you give up because it’s hard, nothing will change. Anyway, it’s my world, and I have to move myself.
The same goes for giants.
Those who look at me with disbelief eyes. I feel various emotions from them.
I pointed my finger at the sky. Dark clouds are visible in the distance.
More than 15 days have passed since we arrived at Giantpolis.
“How long are you going to lose? There is no escaping here either. Will you just keep running away and being pushed out? How far can I run away?”
Dark clouds that moved slowly were approaching, pouring black rain.
“Now is the time to move.”
The giants who had already fled the dark clouds had to make a decision.
And they…
“It’s time to escape destruction!”
“There is nowhere else to run!”
“I’m tired of being told to accept it because I can’t stop it. Let’s do it!”
I don’t want to repeat what I’ve been through.
* * *
Undercity Consolidation Plan.
The time elapsed between notifications to Districts 1 and 3 has elapsed.
Evileye’s propaganda continued, and public opinion had already drifted in that direction.
slowly. But it might be the effect of the dark clouds that were clearly approaching.
gloomy atmosphere. Dalu and Herma also controlled the gang members and managed the district residents, but there were limitations.
“There is a limit to suppressing the people of Herma. I have to make a decision.”
“Farmer has already passed and is in trouble.”
I didn’t know if it would simply end if I threw away my stubbornness and joined the atmosphere.
There was no way to be harmed, and it is true that worshipers are the main customers, but it is a business relationship. There was no reason to keep loyalty even while watching blood.
One thing I’m worried about.
“You won’t be in the same position you are now.”
If he joined Evileye’s forces, it would be difficult to shake off his current prestige.
Because you will be one of the group that makes up the power. Besides, it was obvious that the financial situation would be bad because the deal with the worshipers would be cut off.
In the Under City, capital and military power were essential, and if one of them was lost, it was easy to be eaten.
More than anything, I fear retaliation.
There were many who were repulsed by the worshipers, but all of them were pressed with power and money, so the current market was created.
There were also those who rebelled against him, so if the organization collapsed, those with a grudge might attack.
Unlike the administrators of other districts, they did not build their power by coming from the same background, but expanded their power by trading with worshipers.
“It is tomorrow. They are already ready to fight. It’s only natural that we get pushed out of the force as the three districts are combined.”
“Even if that’s not the case, the problem is that there are plenty of guys who will pave the way for you from the inside.”
“It is ridiculous to think like this. In fact, it’s as if there are no options.”
I know that accepting it without unnecessary resistance is the best choice.
I just didn’t have the courage to do that.
Herma let out a small sigh.
“I can’t help it. I have to open the door…”
“Is that necessary?”
At that time, a strange voice came from a space where only the two of them should be.
A figure wearing a black hood. Worshiper’s emblem on the back of the cloak and a gold necklace.
A mark that indicates that you are a gold-level worshiper.
“I couldn’t stand to watch our precious customer get into trouble.”
He held out a crystal ball.
The screen recorded with a magical device unfolds like a hologram.
“They are mobs. They are the ones who defy the prophecies and are an armed group that threatens the Giant Police. Do you act that way knowing that you are here thanks to whom? Tsk.”
“This.”
“Kuhm!”
Herma and Dalu look at the hologram.
Giants who have finished their battle posture are gathered. Warriors of the Giant Police. Advocates of destruction standing beside him.
“It’s time to step on it. I think the time has come for you to join us. we’ll help How is it?”
At his words, Herma and Dalu met their eyes.
“Now you will be family, not business partners.”
“You won’t have to stay in the shade forever. It’s time to go out into the sun.”
He immediately nodded.
