Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 6

How Long Has

My Name Been?

The kobold, who had been reluctant to show up, showed up.

A dog’s head and a human torso.

Unlike the unusually large head, the body was not much different from that of a goblin.

If you just listen to the explanation, it’s ridiculous, but from the point of view, it’s just bizarre.

“Krurruk.”

A crossbow in one hand and a quiver attached to the side.

Contains about 6 bolts.

It’s not that big for his size.

Even so, it is powerful.

“Sniff sniff!”

The kobold moves cautiously and sniffs it.

As long as it has a dog’s head, it seems that there is a strong tendency to judge by smell rather than by direct sight.

It was a good thing for me.

‘Come a little longer.’

I waited with bated breath.

The most important thing in hunting is patience.

My legs hurt from squatting, but it’s worth it.

Because he was slowly approaching the trap I had dug.

little bit more. a little bit.

“Kreuk!”

Suddenly the kobold stopped.

did you find me

I was nervous for a moment, but fortunately, he didn’t notice me.

I just checked the target.

As proof, he hid behind a tree and loaded bolts into his crossbow.

– Tung!

I shot the crossbow straight at the target.

blistering speed. It’s not outstanding, but it has enough killing power.

– Kwaaak!

It pierced right through the chest.

It’s impossible to block bolts with everyday clothes, even if you don’t know if you’re wearing armor.

In severe cases, death from shock. Even if he didn’t, death was foreseen.

It’s a complete victory for him.

If it wasn’t for the dolls I made.

‘I had a hard time making that. It’s a dog’s head.’

that’s bait

I put bushes in my clothes to make me look like a real person.

Even when viewed from a distance, even if the same person sees it, it’s so well thought out that it’s confusing.

It would have been impossible to properly check the kobold’s already bad eyesight.

“Kreureung!”

As expected, the kobold came running excitedly.

I must have been very excited at the thought of eating meat.

Whether it’s a person or a monster, if you stick to one thing, your field of vision narrows.

-The

timing of the taat kobold running towards the doll.

I leaped from the tree and reached for the top of his head with a dagger.

– Quickly!

-The blow with

gravity and weight shattered his head and broke his neck.

It’s a solid dagger, even if it’s not luxurious.

Blood and brains gushed out on the dagger that was stuck up to the handle.

Needless to say, instant death.

[Kobold Kill (1/1)]

[2nd floor cleared]

After checking the notification, I stood up from the guy who was almost sitting on the floor.

“Oh my waist. You’re going to die anyway, come quickly.”

How many hours did you wait on a tree to catch this one?

Wouldn’t it be nice if you just grabbed it nicely?

When he twists his body, his bones make a loud noise.

My legs are numb… but I’m satisfied because I caught it safely.

“eww. It’s embarrassing.”

I think it would have been better if it didn’t have this smell.

I wiped the ooze from my body with my hand.

I applied it all over my body in case he found me.

That’s all. I took a rope from my backpack and weaved leaves to camouflage it.

It could be called a crude gilly suit.

I’ve heard that kobolds have bad eyesight, but there’s nothing wrong with being thorough.

I trembled.

It was colder than I thought when I was wearing shorts while making dolls.

It’s not like you caught a cold I shouldn’t lose my condition.

“Let’s start with clothes.”

After removing the bolt from the doll’s back, I put on my clothes and packed my backpack.

I’m a bit more human now.

[The portal is created.]

A notification popped up in line with the preparations.

A portal that I’m a little used to now.

After that, I could have gone straight to the third floor, but I waited a little longer.

Because there is still more to receive.

Hopefully this isn’t a lie either.

A tutorial strategy that I decided not to believe anymore.

The rewards given to each floor were also written there.

[Clear reward-community is activated.]

“That’s right!”

I clenched my fists.

Fortunately, it seems that the compensation was not a lie.

Unlike the first floor, from the second floor, system-related rewards are given.

From now on, will I be classified as a person with the potential to break the tutorial?

anyway.

The first of these system-related rewards is community.

“Community open.”

I immediately opened the screen.

A translucent hologram appearing in midair.

[Main Server – South Korea]

– You have not finished the tutorial.

– Some functions are locked. (Only channels below the 10th floor can be used.)

Channel restrictions.

roughly expected I heard a lot of floating stories.

I’m a rookie who hasn’t even awakened yet. I’m going to have to pay that kind of penalty.

If you go up to the 6th floor, all restrictions will be lifted.

“Where should I take a look?”

I’m not the only one called to this fucking tower.

There will be people who came up with me, and there will be people who were summoned to the tower before me.

That also meant that it was a good opportunity to get information from the locals who climbed the tower first.

In addition, you can check if other people have gone through the same difficulty tutorial as me.

back. I pressed a channel below the 10th floor.

-The

screen changed and a list of articles came to mind.

There are more texts than you think.

-How many riders will survive this time?

-Looking for someone to challenge the 7th floor.

-Phoenix guild bastards are dead.

-Ah, it’s shit. At this time, you have to look at the view tube, but it’s like that.

-I just got an S-class item.

It was mostly insignificant, though.

community is what

Even the top here. No cell phone, no internet. I was just bored.

“No one has time to be bored.”

I was very busy getting stabbed by a goblin or a bolt by a kobold.

The more I climb the floor, the more I feel like dying.

Even though I only cleared the second floor, I let out a sigh.

At one time, I also thought that the chance of clearing the tutorial section was 20%, so why are there so few of them?

Although now I have changed my mind.

20% was a lot of money.

“How the hell did you get through?”

I, who came up with the equipment, suffered this too.

In hindsight, it seems that the survival rate would have risen more if it hadn’t been for the tutorial strategy that was spread by the government and guilds.

I’m sure now

These bastards are deliberately controlling the number of hunters.

using the tutorial. It’s because you’re spreading a strategy that’s not the same.

I’m sure there are other people besides me who thought like this.

Let’s find those traces.

I started poking my nose and looking at the list of posts.

“hmm?”

Found an odd title.

-ㅅㅅ Is this a difficulty level? How did everyone pass the 5th floor?

click.

[Hair loss]: You crazy bastards! What kind of seed bug said that a goblin comes out on the first floor? Please put your head in the shit and search.

“It wasn’t just me.”

Somehow I was relieved.

I was worried that the suspicions I had so far might be true.

I realized that it was an accident that only happened to me.

It’s like the tutorial came out as a variation of the past because I didn’t have bad luck.

however.

“Why is the comment status like this?”

I frowned.

It was only for a moment that I felt a sense of unity.

Looking at the comments below the post, I was in a bad mood.

-jr b.

-He has a knack for making jokes when juniors come in.

-Is it okay if I pretend to be a newbie?

-Bill eating————————.

-Don’t say that kids like you are dying because people like you are obscuring information.

└Slayer X Killer O.

└ㅗ.

-I need to get rid of that bastard. What floor are you on? wait for you to come

Aggressive.

No, I don’t think I believe the words of hair loss at all.

The writer tried to protest something in the comments posted in real time, but it was quickly buried as if it could not be helped in front of the quantity.

-no;; done. I’m going to the 3rd floor now. Let’s all go up and see

I ended up writing this with these words.

After that, I looked through the list, but it seemed that no one had cleared the second floor like me.

There were some aggro posts, but they were empty.

Maybe he didn’t read the mood and post like I did.

Even considering that, there was only one post posted.

“It means I came up faster than I thought.”

If it’s natural, it’s a natural story.

I have equipment and S-class powers.

Well, I spent quite a bit of time trying to get it.

Still, it’s true that you have an advantage over others.

Climbing the tower at the same speed as me.

“I’ll have to keep an eye on the balding man.”

Depending on the situation, it can be a formidable enemy or a reliable ally.

It’s too early to jump to conclusions, so let’s not approach it hastily.

“Shall we take care of things first?”

I took the crossbow and bolt that the kobold had.

I want to take the bolt he shot, but I can’t because I’m afraid I’ll get lost.

I just need to take care of what I shot at the doll.

“Still, six bolts aren’t bad.”

After checking the equipment, I turned on the stretch.

I kept looking at the community in the same position, and my eyes got tired.

The body also seems a bit stiff.

Above all, there is a notification window that catches your eye from a while ago.

[Pull out the nail on the ring finger of the kobold’s left hand.]

[Maybe something good will happen?]

A spear that emerged through authority.

I looked down at the fallen Kovent.

The color of the nail on the ring finger is distinctly different from that of the other fingers.

It’s a light purple color, probably because it’s been painted with nail polish.

“It’s a good thing.”

Let’s take care of it.

If it’s what the authority said, it’s probably there no matter what.

In case it gets damaged, I carefully pulled it out and put it in the inside pocket of my backpack.

Put the arrow inside too. The crossbow was fixed to the outside of the backpack so that it could be used at any time.

Maybe it’s because of the long-range weapon, but it feels a bit reassuring.

“Let’s go get some rest.”

[Clear the 2nd floor]

-The 2nd floor is safe.

I’m saying that authority is also safe.

I am hungry and I need to sleep.

You should also drink some water.

The harsher the environment, the more important it is to take proper rest.

I intend to rest well before going up to the third floor.

There was some combat rations, so there was no problem.

“Let’s take a look around the field as well.”

do you know

I wonder if there is anything useful like the essence from before.

Good to get points too.

As long as the notification pops up that it is safe, there will be no more play.

–

It’s been a while since I’ve been standing tall and walking around with a relaxed mind.

I opened the community again.

“Even if I’m resting, I’ll have to come up with a plan.”

Because there may be another survivor besides the bald person.

First of all, the people who went upstairs before us are hostile to the idea that the tutorial is wrong.

But what about those of us who experienced it firsthand?

Maybe now is the perfect timing to get a colleague?

“The more survivors, the better.”

For one reason or another, I didn’t want to see other people die because of the government and guild’s tricks.

If it wasn’t for them, there would have been many more hunters.

Irregularly appearing gates could have been easily resolved, as well as monster waves could have been prevented.

If that was the case, neither my parents’ death nor my job would have disappeared.

-Puduk

bastards.

I gritted it.

What should I do?

What should I do to increase the number of survivors and inform the problems of the tutorial?

I tried my head, but the only idea that came to my mind was the one that came to me at that time.

I pressed write without hesitation.

[You need a nickname to write.]

“Hmm?”

A notification window popped up.

Come to think of it, did you say that the community is an anonymous system?

Good thing.

Because I don’t have to reveal my identity.

If you look closely at the tower, it is a lawless area.

A story that you can encounter dangerous guys at any time, depending on the situation or profit or loss.

There’s no need to jump out and risk it.

“Hmm. It’s a nickname because it’s a nickname.”

He rubbed his chin and pondered.

Is there anything that is difficult to identify while hiding myself the most?

I pondered for a while.

“Register.”

made a decision

“My nickname is Petit Gongdu.”
