Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 616
Chapter 616: Preliminary Preparation
Is this what it feels like to open the sky?
A transmission magic circle created in the air. Geometric patterns emitting different colors depending on the scale rotate and tear the clouds apart.
Beams of light sticking to the ground along with black fog. Numerous monsters descending on it.
“It looks like a gate.”
I wonder if it was like this when the numerous gates opened for the first time before entering the tower.
He frowned. Outside, gates are still forming. It’s probably happening a lot more than before.
I’d rather have monsters come through the gate, but I’ve heard that disasters appear somewhere on earth out of the blue.
It was clear that the material was handed over from the Royal Knights and the Big Star Guild, who exchanged information on a regular basis.
Besides, there was information Lee Jun-seok asked about recently.
“Did you say that there seems to be a gate where an ancient species appears?”
The gate where the ancient monster, which is the starting point of the monster, is located.
Their subordinate, the First Monster, was also strong, but the biggest problem was that it continued to spit out monsters even if the gate didn’t explode.
I know because I also experienced it while climbing the tower. Not a normal monster. It’s fortunate that the First Monster and Ancient Monster inside didn’t come out.
‘I don’t know again. I’ve only experienced it once.’
They may come out when certain conditions are met.
Unlike the other gates, little is known about it yet.
Even if it’s not that, to stop the monster wave, you have to go inside and see the end.
“With Oh Ji-hyeok and Kim So-dam, I’ll do my best.”
The ancient gate I experienced came from the 70th floor.
It would be difficult for the existing Hunters, but with the Pejing Union and others outside, they could stop it.
In particular, Oh Ji-hyeok and Kim So-dam have risen to the 90th floor, so I believe they will be able to finish it sufficiently. Rather, it might be an opportunity to make your name known.
The time zones of the tower and the outside are approaching. New climbers are now invited at most once or twice. It meant that the way to hear the outside news was almost gone, so if you’re worried about the outside situation…
“I’ll go upstairs.”
There is no choice but to clear the 100th floor and go out directly.
To do that, you have to clear this place first.
“Master, we have reached the location of each troop.”
Phantom Knight got down on one knee and reported.
“Hmmmm! You did very well!”
“Do you want to die?”
Knock knock. Venom, who was tapping Phantom’s shoulder with his tail, opened his eyes strangely and gnawed when the knight glared at him.
“Kyaaaaagh! How dare you speak ill of me, my older brother’s younger brother! Your lord is my brother! As my brother’s younger brother, I am the lord.
“To that.”
When Deokchun strangles Venom with his tongue, he quickly calms down.
Didn’t that faint? I fell down with my tongue out.
done. He’s a strong guy, so he’ll take care of himself.
“They must have noticed the anomaly, too. move right away Tell each unit.”
“All right!”
After that, the knight leaves with a communication phrase.
Venom, who came to his senses after wriggling, climbed up my legs and landed on my left shoulder.
Frog on the right. snake on the left It feels like being a druid, but I can’t help it.
In this expedition, I was planning to move personally, and the number of people moving together was minimal. In that sense, taking Venom was an inevitable choice.
‘I don’t know how strong this guy is.’
Phantom Knight is a guy with an overspec compared to his grade enough to be called a 3-star ride, and he became much stronger as he awakened.
Especially since he’s specialized in combat, there’s nothing to worry about. Currently, it is left in the position of overseeing the monsters brought to the expedition.
The goal of this expedition is simple.
To annihilate the human side?
no.
“To get ahead.”
Hit the place where they will enter the second half before the human players.
and plant the seeds

I can see the faintly resonating vibrating sound and the hazy dust rising in the distance.
looks like it just started. The knight will be leading a group of monsters and attacking each starting point.
The first place to attack is the granary here. The place where I met the previous Hwamu-seon.
Most of the players are gathered in Hupenpedia, so there will be few left at the starting point.
The distance is not far, so reinforcements will come soon, but the most threatening expedition has entered the stage.
“Three units, four units. When the knight sends a signal, advance to the rear of Hupenpedia. The rest goes with me.”
“All right!”
“Everyone, get your head right! It moves!”
A group of people moving in unison at my command.
The beginning is the starting point. The middle is Hupenpedia. where is next
“Royal road.”
There you can get various achievements and titles and raise your job to the final level.
Currently, those who run the forefront are in their 40s. Level 60 was the highest level, and in the meantime, it was a form of getting stronger through invasion, but I was thinking of cutting that step.
To be precise, there was something else I was aiming for through it.
one more.
‘There are definitely worshipers here.’
Right now, there were two worshipers in the demon castle.
Their purpose is to hinder climbers. If you want to make money, go to the place where money gathers, and if you want to catch a tiger, you have to go into the tiger’s den.
They are clearly on the side of humanity. And I think the places where they are mostly gathered are the large city of Hupenpedia and the final destination, the capital city.
You can see the road leading to the castle in the distance.
huge gorge. A gigantic bridge that crosses the infinitely connected space.
Since no one had reached this place yet, only those who seemed to be merchants were wandering around, and soldiers with well-armed arms that were incomparable to other places were deployed everywhere.
The expression of those who were holding their posture, giving strength to their sleepy eyes, became hard.
Monsters that shouldn’t be here have appeared in groups.
“Non-emergency! It’s a monster!”
“Invasion! It’s an invasion!”
“real situation! Wake up you bastards!”
Those who shout and move dizzy.
The guy on top of the castle wall rang the bell vigorously. The guys who lock the gates whether the merchants remain on the bridge or not.
“Open the door, you madmen!”
“If we close now, what shall we do!”
“How much money have I fed, but close the door! open it! Open the door!”
Either that or not, the monsters rushed at it like crazy.
“Khaaaaaa!”
“Gooooooo!”
Minotaurs and Golems, which were especially large, charged.
For defense, a thick iron plate was used to match the armor and shield.
It cost a lot, but the effect was great.
– Kwaaaaang!
– Valid. Teeing!
The faces of those who shoot crossbows and arrows on top of the castle wall become pale.
Light arrows like that don’t work. It just makes a lot of noise.
Of course, they are also those who have played the game several times. Even the level is high.

It was only a soldier subject, and the level reached level 30.
Most of the monsters I brought were 2 to 3 stars.
Armed, but the same goes for them.
Is that all? Just like I did to the guys attacking the stage, they also had a device to prepare for an attack.
-Tooung
-Kwajajajajak!
– Kwaaaaang!
“Quoooooo!”
For a moment, the soldiers disappeared, but the ballistas and cannons appeared.
The shells flew with a roar and hit the Minotaur’s shield. I somehow managed to block it once, but after two or three times, the arm exploded along with the shield.
A huge crossbow flew in between them and blew off his head, and arrows stuck through the dented armor.
A huge amount of arrows hit the helmet as if it were aiming for the eyes, and some of them seemed to use skills.
-Koo-gu-gu-gung
A Minotaur that can’t hold out for a long time and collapses with its head turned into chestnuts.
At least, golems that do not die unless their cores are broken last longer.
‘A golem is better for a siege.’
When advancing forward, I think I will have to use something else instead of an iron shield.
If you get hit by a shell anyway, you won’t last long, so I think it’s more cost-effective to pile thick trees wide and put an iron plate on the outside.
That way, you can better cover the monsters that follow behind you. Right now, all I have to do is stick with at most four of them behind them.
It’s a kind of armored vehicle fire unit, but it’s the first time I’ve tried it, so I can see the lacking part.
This is a problem that needs to be improved gradually.
“let’s go.”
“I will trust you and follow you.”
I confirmed that the eyes of the troops were focused and moved to my seat.
The goals of this expedition are multiple. One of them is to find out the structure of the royal castle.
Almost all maps of the area, including Hupenpedia, were completed, but this side did not.
Security was thorough even when spies were planted, and it was not appropriate for players to hide among people because they did not come.
I also focused on other places than here, so I didn’t have much information.
It would be comfortable to fly to the endless canyon fire night, but it was too noisy, so I went over the rainbow bridge.
[Clinging (S) Lv.MAX]
It’s enough to go up the wall with clinging.
The soldiers on top of it had to pay more attention.
“To that.”
Deokchun goes upstairs first. It was big for a frog, but it wasn’t comparable to a human.
-I
heard a familiar sound, and soon after, Deokchun poked his head out over the wall and waved his hand.
When I went upstairs, I saw a soldier who appeared to have fainted, so I folded it up and dumped it in the gorge.
“I think it came at an unexpected timing, so everyone turned to the front door.”
I looked around the empty castle wall and used my stealth skill.
A lonely road where there are few people. Prism rainbow where there are people.
I’m used to infiltrating stealthily. I looked all over the castle.
-Ughhh
The communication bead flickers. Night’s signal. It was the timing for the troops waiting behind Hupenpedia to attack, and at the same time, it was the timing for the guys who were attacking the main gate to fall back little by little.
Knowing that, the soldiers here are also in a hurry. There is no enemy better to wipe out than a retreating foe.
“Move quickly!”
“Don’t come out there, go to the shelter!”
“If words don’t work, just beat them up and send them to the shelter!”
-Dang dang dang dang!
The bell still rings.
Merchants locking doors and soldiers running through the streets. Between them, I see knights wearing shiny full plates.
[Lukas Lv.46]
[Dew Choi Lv.48]
‘It’s high.’
that’s the article. Close to level 50.
According to Garti, there were few people who exceeded level 50. Officers, including the knight commander.
That would be the case, because the main focus of this game is the player, not the normal NPCs.
He said that he put a limit on the level systematically.
The only exception is the swordsman, the greatest weapon of the royal family. This guy said he was level 60.
After stealing a glimpse of them, I hid under the alley wall and took out a paper and pen.
In the meantime, I was drawing a map in an alley or empty house to turn the cooldown of the set skill.
‘It’s bigger than Hupenpedia, but the facilities are concentrated in the center. It’s not such a difficult structure.’
Rather, the structure of this place, which was built with a plan, is simpler than a large city that has been repeatedly expanded at random.
In a circular shape, the royal castle is in the center. Other buildings spread out in a circle as if surrounding the royal castle.
It was a form made to use the building as a wall in the event of a war. It won’t be easy to break through if you settle down and resist from the inside.
Click.
I put in a ballpoint pen and tapped my fingers.
It’s a structure that’s hard to pierce. It’s a structure that’s hard to pierce.
“Then we need to make it easier to pierce.”
-To
draw a talk map, I went around and repeated what I had done.
[Time Bomb (S) Lv.MAX]
He smiled faintly at the wall where the red magic circle permeated.
