Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 495
Chapter 496: A Hero?
At my command, the specter makes a shit-chewed expression.
Even ghosts can curse with their eyes. A fact I didn’t know.
Derka also stood there dumbfounded for a while and then burst into anger.
“Damn human playing with me!”
“Oh, you’re deaf.”
Seeing him get angry, it’s clear that he has a personality problem. Isn’t it that demons generally have emotions going back and forth?
Either that or not.
“I should try this and that on occasion like this.”
The last scenario on the 80th floor. When you enter the 90th floor, it is obvious that you will have to fight fragments of chaos, but you can’t just sit there.
I figured out a way to forcibly raise the skill level using the power of chaos, but I couldn’t be satisfied with that.
In order to become even a little stronger, I had to try various things and take on challenges that I had never done before.
I still do it with that intention. I don’t know if it will end sooner if I step in, but isn’t it no different from what I’ve been doing so far?
‘Thinking about it, there is a feeling that the pattern became monotonous as the skill level went up.’
In the past, when skills were ambiguous, I sprinkled water, shot electricity, dug up the ground, tied my feet, and did all sorts of uproar. Firebomb was also for self-destruct back then.
Of course, the main should stay the same, but it would be nice to have something to create a variable for.
Feeling proud inside, he patted the ghost’s shoulder.
“As a token of support, I will give you a name. Let’s see. okay. Since you are a ghost, you are a ghost from today. good!”
“Kiaaa…..”
Mangu runs screaming as if he is in a good mood. What are you doing to fight with your bare hands? You gave me a Demon Spear, so you’ll do well.
In any case, he and Chang are also S-class. The level isn’t max, but it’s close to max.
“You are desperately trying to destroy me!”
Derka, ignoring my innocent intentions, kicked her feet with a ferocious force.
Because of its size, it seems like a tank is rushing. On the other hand, our net is on the slim side. It’s basically a ghost, so there’s nothing you can do about it.
It is something that cannot be underestimated.
-Because it
is based on a spiritual body, it shows completely different movements from physical footwork. Besides, normal physical attacks are almost impervious.
Like a shadow, the mangu that evaded the curved sword throws a spear. What he was aiming for was the hand holding the curved sword.
It’s not a bad decision. No matter how much you have an advantage in mobility, you will lose in a lich fight.
In combat, simply dropping an opponent’s weapon is no different from disarming.
“joy!”
– Huung!
However, he didn’t take it lightly either, so he stepped back and swung his curved sword away from the net.
For some reason, Mangu seemed to think it was worth doing.
“Kiaaaaaagh!”
Deodeok started screaming and swinging his spear.
“It’s quite a lot.”
“To that.”
It was showing more skilled spearmanship than I thought. I wouldn’t have learned it elsewhere, so is it my own skill?
I can’t guess what kind of existence he was before he became a specter.
I also mainly use a sword, but that was only because of Alios’ authority, the corrections related to sword skills were attached, and I tried to learn miscellaneous weapons before I went up to the tower.
One day he would climb the tower and no one knew what weapon he would use.
There was also a window among them.
“Do you think you are much better than me?”
Even I, who have limited knowledge about windows, are at a high level.
Even Derka, who I ignored at first, focused on the battle and swung the curved sword, so I said everything.
I didn’t overwhelm him completely, so I decided to help him a little.
[Iris of the Abyss (S) Lv.10+]
– Brilliant!
When the eyes that appeared in the air split open and Derka’s gaze met, the boy’s body staggered greatly.
Mental attacks up to S rank. It’s because I’m close to immunity, but it’s a very threatening attack to others.
Even if you have a resistance skill, this kind of attack is greatly influenced by your mental strength.
I don’t know if all demons are like that, but at least that guy looks far from calm.
“Khaaaaa!”
The guy with the spear stuck in his leg screamed. Even so, the momentum didn’t die, so it was a red eye, and it was an active offensive.
“Kihaaaaagh!”
Mangu was also desperate for popcorn as he swung his spear dizzy and poked at it.
‘As expected, it’s the most fun to see guys who are big enough to fight.’
I’m sorry for the two of them fighting head-on, but this was my honest feeling.
This is what I thought, but I watched the battle between the two without taking my eyes off it for a moment. It wasn’t because of any other reason, but because it was necessary to figure out how much power the demons had.
He said with great confidence that he was the commander of the 1st corps, so it would not be a low rank. In that sense, to give an objective evaluation…
“They are a bit stronger than the kids I met in Purgatory.”
I’m not talking about the first chapter of the purgatory scenario. It’s based on the last chapter. It’s true that it’s strong, but isn’t it hard to deal with?
In terms of combat power, it was inferior to Ancient Monsters, and in terms of difficulty, it was worse than Disaster.
Although it is in an ambiguous position, it is a threatening presence to the general public or halfway climbers. The part that bothers me more is…..
‘I don’t know how many people will be called corps commanders.’
Even if there are only about 10 corps commanders and each corps commander has 10 generals, there are 100 people like that.
What if those guys came in droves?
‘100 is a bit too many.’
I will also run away for now and then defeat each other. I don’t know what variables will arise in a head-to-head match.
If you go on an adventure for no reason and it goes wrong, you can’t even go anywhere to complain. Wrong means death.
I calmly watched the battle between the two.
“Kiaaaaaaa!”
Mangu, who defeated him at the end of a close battle, raised his spear high with a scream of victory.
If I pierce the neck like this, it will be over.
“Okay, good job.”
“Cheese? Chiaa!”
I ended the skill and put the mesh ball back.
It must be an illusion that he cursed at me before Mangu disappeared.
“Damn it.”
“Don’t get too hot. I have something to ask you.”
I approached the guy who was stretched out with a broken body.
“Where is the warlock? There must be someone who summoned you.”
“I do not know.”
“Don’t lie.”
-Kwajik
“Khaaaaaa!”
I stepped on the guy’s wrist and broke it. There’s nothing to be polite about with demons. He’s the guy who tried to kill me in the first place.
at the same time exerting power.
[Derka]
-The demon of the 5th Pandemonium. It’s a demon!
– One of Pandemonium’s 1st Corps Commander, Bomber’s Manseal.
-Full NPCs temporarily placed by the system.
I was able to get the guy’s info.
Temporarily placed NPC. Different from neutral NPCs. I guess so. A guy completely subordinated to the Tower.
You don’t even know you’re an NPC. Literally the chess pieces used by the system.
‘It won’t be very useful.’
Well, I thought it would be like this. A real NPC living on the 80th floor would have noticed that I was a climber and either cooperate or attack.
Of course, the latter is a story when you are a worshiper. Since he wasn’t even a worshiper, he appeared according to the flow of the world that became the background of the scenario.
“Why do not you know? You’re the guy from the 5th Demon Realm. There must be no way to come this way.”
“The door to the demon world has opened! just came there What comes over through the formal summoning ceremony is more than the vice-captain’s demons!”
When I rub my wrists together, the words come out right away.
Hmm. It seems that this guy’s level came through the crack opened by the warlock. In terms of monsters, it was similar to entering through a gate.
It seems that the strong guys called the deputy corps commander come over through another method.
It must be a similar principle to the door of the contract experienced in the spirit realm. It might have reflected the world’s will to be wary of powerful beings, or it might have required a summoning ritual because there was a penalty for crossing over.
I roughly understand that.
“It didn’t just come through. Apparently, wasn’t he trying to seduce the lord of this place and eat the land?”
There’s something Baisa said. The time when the lord’s health rapidly deteriorated and he showed strange behavior coincided with the time he visited this place.
It was after that that rumors of demons spread. She said it was around that time that the kidnapping and all sorts of things happened.
Did you do that without any intention? The guy who talks about the manjangjang or something with his own mouth?
There must have been someone behind the scenes who gave the order. I’ll have to find out if it’s the warlock or the 1st Corps commander he claims to follow.
“I can not say.”
“What are you talking about until now?”
“Aaaaaaagh!”
When I stepped on the other arm as well, he twisted his body, but couldn’t escape.
[Gravity Bracelet (C)]
The artifact was so heavy that the ground was about to dig into a hole that could not overcome the weight.
The guy who gritted his teeth and endured. I don’t know anything else, but I can’t answer this much.
Rather, such actions were the answer. Compared to the easy answer to the black magician earlier, this question did not. The 1st corps commander or something would have ordered it.
‘Anyway, the warlock and the demons don’t seem to have a perfect cooperative relationship.’
The feeling of being together because each other’s interests are moderately aligned? Not all demons judged that. Demons with higher positions may have different thoughts.
So last question.
“Where are the other demons located?”
“I do not know! Did you think I would tell you everything!”
– Goo oh oh!
His body swelled with his cry.
Magi bursting out wildly!
“Self-destruction is not a bit!”
[I put on the fall line set.]
I immediately put on the fall line set because of the unusual energy.
-Quaaaaaaang!
Magi went out of control and caused a huge explosion.
The wall that had been piled up collapsed like a piece of paper from the intense impact.
Patter.
In the space revealed with the fragments, there were knights and soldiers surrounding us along with Baisa.
All eyes are on me.
“You look like that.”
“Oh is this? Uh… nothing.”
I vaguely skipped over Baisa’s question.
I hurriedly covered myself with a cloak.
Oh, and the cloak is also green. I unknowingly bit my lip and moved on.
The knights and soldiers who blocked me step back and open the way.
“The next day, please.”
Taat!
As if he was halfway running away, he made his way out of the lord’s castle.
“Look!”
I heard Baisha’s voice calling me from behind, but I ignored it.
Anyway, I got what I wanted. I heard a rough background on this world, and I also learned about warlocks and the collapsed magic tower.
It’s a bit unfortunate that I couldn’t dig deeper into the demons, but since this is a world in the process of destruction, I’ll continue to meet demons.
Anyway, the place I’m headed is the west where there are heroes.
“Ay Mr. I tried to be less noticeable this time.”
I clicked my tongue and kicked my feet.
* * *
At the place where Cho Hyun-soo left, the knights and soldiers of the territory, including Baisa, looked at the place where he left in a state of fascination.
“I never thought it was a real demon.”
“There were rumors that he was a demon, but I thought it was a lie.”
The knights who looked at Derka’s body, which had only traces, frowned.
“I never thought I would leave behind such an achievement.”
“The clothes were also unusual. Could it be the rumored warrior?”
“It’s really plausible!”
The soldiers each shared their feelings. The same goes for Baisa.
‘At first I thought he was a holy mage, but he’s not from the church.’
If you’re a paladin belonging to the church, you might not know, but holy mages don’t wear armor and wield swords. Most of all, there was no pattern of religious affiliation anywhere on the clothes.
It might have been stealth, but Baisa shook her head. There’s no way someone who secretly carries out missions for the Church would be wearing armor that stands out like that.
‘Maybe he’s a real warrior. I have to inform the Magic Tower.’
Having made her decision, Baisa waved her hand.
“The demons have been captured. Take care of the body and send the fastest to the church! I will see the lord!”
“yes!”
Baisa moved quickly.
