Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 674
Episode 674 Punishment Target
Reminds me of the past.
When was it? Get infinite coins, go up, and receive Lilka’s quest.
I died several times to get to Alios.
It wasn’t that long after I entered the tower.
I died a few times after that, but I didn’t have to die for a while.
“why! Why does it keep coming back to life! “Why!”
“Oh, it’s noisy. Do you keep screaming? “It’s embarrassing for people.”
This time was a little different.
The Altar of Blood returns.
How many times has this happened?
I think it was about 10 times.
In other words, it means that many people died from that guy.
It came up twice a day at the earliest.
‘It’s already been a week.’
There is about a week left until tax day.
Well, it doesn’t matter.
My previous plan was to deal with him and get it over with before the threatening tax day arrived.
“oh? Did you build a lot without seeing each other? “Did you stay up all night?”
“Oh, no!”
“Okay!”
– Quaaaaaaaa!
Now I’ve changed my mind.
He’s been so mean to me that I’m thinking of making a fuss about him too.
Tax day?
It’s dangerous.
But if you don’t go that day, you can go the next day, right?
Wouldn’t it be okay if there was only one dangerous day a month?
Therefore, I harassed him slowly but steadily.
They destroyed the foundation that was built to build the stands over there.
“Keeeeeeek!”
Fahiru, who has given up on human speech, screams.
It looks like they were building a fence and piling up dirt.
“Hey, that’s poor construction. “Build it again.”
“You crazy guy!”
“no. Look Carefully. Let me think about it. “People on the 95th floor are fighting, and if you build it like that, the entire stadium will collapse.”
Isn’t that right?
“After creating the foundation, we reinforce it with magic circles and artifacts! “Damn you!”
Or not.
I make potions and equipment, but I don’t know much about architecture.
Don’t tell me in advance.
You probably didn’t even hear it with your ears.
I picked my ears moderately and walked forward.
I could feel the guy’s gaze in the dark, but I didn’t pay much attention to it.
You just plant a time bomb every time you walk.
Every time the red magic circle seeps into the ground, you can hear its screams.
“If it continues like this, it’s a loss to both sides! “If you disturb me, you too will be tied up here!”
“Hey, it’s okay. Why not stay longer?”
“Aaaah! “This guy will rip you to death!”
“If you tease me, I will kill you.”
“What a dog! Such a dog——!”
Now I stutter.
Although he said this, what he said was not wrong.
After being tormented for the past few days, has your way of thinking become normal?
It was a sharp insight, but there was one mistake.
“If you fail, you will be punished. “Then this is correct.”
Even if you are tied up, you have to clear the quest to survive.
He completes the proof first?
‘Then I’m the one suffering.’
The system intends to punish one of the two.
It would have been okay if the punishment had just ended in death.
Even if you are unlucky and fail, you only need to lose one coin.
Doesn’t the system know that?
Since I know it, it was written as punishment rather than death as a penalty.
If, as I expected, I fail.
‘It looks like they’re going to make it into a real NPC.’
It is not an idea without any basis.
Because the system wants new NPCs and equipment to use.
The device called the Blood Altar plays that role.
Didn’t you say out loud that you wanted me last time?
You have to clear this quest faster than him by any means necessary.
The underlying work has already been completed.
I asked the community to spread soul stones and contain the souls of worshipers.
I relayed the situation to wise man John Traylor through the seagull.
anyway.
“I’ll leave for today! See you later!”
“Don’t come! Do not come!”
I plan to call it a day and head back.
I don’t think there’s anything to destroy other than what I just exploded.
It’s easier to move than before.
The damn darkness was still there, but many of the obstacles were gone.
Although there are some that I explode periodically.
‘If he wants to create an arena, he needs to clean up the surrounding area.’
You can’t just plant a bomb and build a building on top of it.
I took out the crystal ball from the subspace bracelet and infused it with magical power.
I entered through a magic circle, but there was no way to get out, so I got this item.
It has a function of roughly returning to a designated location.
-Uuuuuuung.
[Move to the 95th floor – Pauser City.]
With the rapidly changing vision, I feel my feet touch the solid ground.
The sun is setting, having spent quite a bit of time inside.
[Clean (S) Lv.MAX]
[Shower (S) Lv.MAX]
-Saaaaa.
“I think I’ll buy something.”
“Yes.”
It’s best to wash after a battle.
Even though the feline set has comfort options, you’re bound to get sweat or something else while fighting.
“Did you come?”
“Is work okay?”
“then! It’s what I do. “It’s stable now.”
While I was lying around with him, Nyangpun and the rest of the group stabilized the city center.
It was a pretty radical move, but the results were good.
Gap between rich and poor?
It doesn’t matter because it’s something that can’t be helped.
“As long as you are given a fair opportunity, the rest will take care of itself.”
Unlike in the past, we have modified the social system so that people can accumulate a certain amount of wealth if they work hard.
Anyone can work and receive common sense compensation.
However, it was achieved through half-threats and conciliation.
As a result, it’s easier to live than before, so the rest will take care of itself.
There are still minor issues remaining, but they will be resolved over time.
“so. “Did you recognize it?”
“ok. We also ate the underground shopping mall. “It looked like I was getting something from another black market.”
Another mission given to them.
The goal is to track Fahiru’s movements.
Why are you deeply involved in the market ecosystem?
It’s for strategy, but it’s also for checking the guy.
The idea put forward for the system.
In my case, it was offering a worshiper.
‘He was creating an arena.’
Once you spit it out, you can’t pick it up.
He must somehow create something that can be called an arena for the system.
You can’t just put up a few iron bars in the middle of nowhere and call it an arena.
It must have facilities and structures at the level required to be certified.
That’s why I prefer to attack buildings rather than attack Fahiru directly.
‘Besides that, I did take out one more insurance policy.’
That’s the last resort.
It’s not something that can be used right away.
What’s important is this.
“Buying equipment and materials will soon become a limitation. “You should start saving it yourself?”
“Since we already don’t have the manpower, the work will be delayed even further.”
He’s alone.
The group that existed at least was a group of beggars, but it is no longer there.
Everyone belongs somewhere and is working.
If so, everything from material supply to construction dump site rules establishment and operation, etc.
I have to solve all of this on my own.
It’s never going to be easy.
Even I go and disturb them day after day.
Since we occupy the downtown market area, it is difficult to buy goods.
This means that you have to collect and process your own materials.
‘That doesn’t make sense. In reality.’
He doesn’t even have money.
Where is the beggar’s money?
If only there was a way left for him.
“Has there been any movement on the part of the worshiper?”
“for now? “There are none among those I have identified.”
A platinum level guy is using his power.
In my opinion, this was not an easy task either.
In the first place, the 95th floor has a dedicated currency to pay into the system.
Of course, it is a good that does not exist on other floors.
Therefore, you must bring other valuable treasures or stolen goods and exchange them for money.
“I heard there are no suspicious stolen goods in the underground shopping mall.”
This too is almost blocked.
He’s the one who’s cornered.
“He’ll be out soon.”
“That’s right. “There’s nothing wrong with staying inside.”
What can I do while I’m at the altar of blood with nothing left to protect?
Go outside and do something.
This time is important.
It’s not easy to deal with him at the Altar of Blood.
Because the damn artifact limits your vision.
The force itself is not weak.
But what if he comes out?
‘The words will be different then.’
I tapped my fingers lightly.
I think I can move on to the next step.
I wanted to rest for a while, but there is no time.
As soon as I went outside, Nyangpun stuck his head out.
“Where are you going!”
“Go meet the fairy outside. “I have to prepare quickly.”
“Aang. that. “Do your best!”
Modified 95th floor strategy.
Level 1. Poor construction completed.
Step 2. It is time to begin the divine punishment.
* * *
People have something called shame and something called respect.
I too have done many things like this and that in my life.
There were times when I lived in servitude after the world collapsed.
Because it was a time when strength was truth.
At least until society normalizes to some extent.
Simply put, depending on the situation, you have the mentality to bend to the enemy.
‘This bastard is real.’
The guy in front of me was not ordinary.
wretch?
no.
This guy just had no pride.
“lol. I’m doing another crazy thing. “You know it when you see it.”
“…Nyaang. Is this Gongbleai? Really?”
A shabby guy scratching his head and groveling.
Yes.
It’s Pahiru.
Looking at that guy, Nyangfun glances at me.
His expression was a mixture of various emotions, and that goes for me as well.
“So you’re asking for a job?”
“You’re good at working hard! “If you need to attract customers, I will even dance!”
There is no need for dancing.
If a situation comes where I really have to dance, I will dance.
First of all, I have received the Dancing Master’s crown…
No, I don’t need this.
When something unexpected happens, my brain freezes for a moment.
It’s a good thing that it came directly from us without having to look for it.
‘I was worried that there might be a surprise attack.’
It doesn’t matter to me because I have infinite coins, but not everyone else.
The same goes for Nyangfun right next to me.
I also died from that guy a few times.
Although he fought in an environment that was advantageous to him, it was clear that he was a strong enemy regardless.
Even now, he doesn’t show it, but he’s keeping an eye on Nyangpun to see if he’s doing something stupid.
“Why should I do that?”
“Why are you being so harsh again? Isn’t it good for both of us before I do anything inside? yes? You don’t have to come all the way there. Let’s be good together, this is it. lol.”
A guy rubbing his palms together with a sly expression on his face.
Have you seen the most honest guy in the world?
I was worried that he might end up stealing somewhere, but he came here to make money himself.
Come to think of it, this kid may have begged, but he didn’t steal.
“Looking at this, uh. “We had to prepare separate prizes for the winners, but we couldn’t afford it.”
The wrinkly guy glanced at me.
I hit my forehead without realizing it.
and. There was this.
I guess that’s still true.
“You said you were creating an arena without a winning prize?”
“At that time, I couldn’t think of anything else. Hehehe.”
It was really just a random idea thrown out.
I knew he was a guy who only thought about what was in front of him, but I didn’t know it would be to this extent.
cook.
Nyangfun presses his side.
“What are you going to do?”
“What can I do? “What are we putting forward?”
“Give jobs to people who want to work?”
“Then you should keep your promise.”
Nyangpun, with his eyes wide open, steps on my foot.
‘Are you out of your mind?’ That’s the look in his eyes, but he’s in his right mind.
“I’ll send you to a place that pays well. “The work will be difficult.”
“oh my! “As much as you want!”
The guy who bows at 90 degrees smiles and moves according to the staff’s instructions.
After seeing that I was falling far away, Nyangfun grabbed me and shook me.
“You can just catch it now! “What are you doing!”
“evil! Hey hey hey! hey!”
Oh, why is something so small so strong?
It was a little hectic, but it was for the best.
This guy is out of his mind.
You don’t know what variables will arise the moment you get dragged around by that guy.
So, I also want to be careful where I can.
Kuuk. I pushed away the head of Nyangpun that was running towards me.
“For now, let me do what I want. “It’s safe.”
Not me, but you.
Because I’m the only one with infinite coins in the tower.
“It’s my job to fight him.”
Of course, I really have no intention of going in alone.
I looked back.
“Have you become a fairy?”
“yes. “It worked out right this time.”
As soon as I heard that this guy was coming, I called the fairy.
There was something she said while we were talking.
[The SSS-level power Punisher’s Eye watches the designated enemy.]
[Punishment target: Pahiru the Lonely]
Making that person the target of punishment.
The Chiri Fairy raises the corners of her mouth.
“Now I can strike lightning wherever I am.”
With this, stage 2 of the plan is ready for heavenly punishment.
Go to next step.
“You have prepared some supplies, right? “Let’s get started right away.”
“Ugh. Okay! Just stay a little while.”
Operation Stage 3.
It’s time to start saying “I like your house.”
Let’s rob the Altar of Blood.
