Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 691
Episode 691: The recording commotion
ended quickly.
Because the main culprit of this raid and the traitor who had been operating in hiding has been caught.
The guy who went up through the portal was attacked by Smile Cap.
When looking at the circumstances.
‘It looks like he got hit as soon as he went up.’
I guess so.
Not long after I cut down the fake Lee Jun-seok’s soul, Choco Choco received a call from Smile Cap.
I’m a little concerned about this part.
Harid Porter.
After he died, I gathered some information.
I was curious what kind of guy he was.
“From Canada. “I’m not an early hunter, but I’ve been here for about 6 years.”
This is true when calculated based on the outside world, not the tower.
Not too fast or too slow.
No.
Strictly speaking, it should be considered that you climbed the tower quickly.
Korea is like this thanks to the strategies my members and I gave.
At the beginning of the climb, the servers are separated.
This means that the strategy we deployed was not very useful.
The trials prepared and the monsters that appear are different depending on the server.
“This person is a body collector. However, it is not a necromancer type.”
“This guy is evil.”
Lickjjak, who was reading a document with his legs crossed, narrows his eyes.
To agree.
Because the things he had done were excessive even when considering the tower as a standard.
Still, it looks like his skills were real and he made a name for himself.
‘A guy like that has become an admirer.’
It’s terrible.
Even though he has that much power, he becomes a liaison for a worshiper.
It was a loss to humanity and a shame to the climbers.
“Is it okay for a guy like this to go out?”
“They said they took action. “Ophelia and Big Star also made moves.”
Smilecap killed the guy.
It was quite a risky act.
If it were me, I would have tried to subdue him instead of killing him.
because.
‘The guy who got to the 96th floor will be in trouble if his admirers leave.’
He even had the ability to manipulate corpses.
“It’s also possible to possess an opponent you’ve subdued by leaving the body.”
It was also possible to seep into someone else like Lee Jun-seok did.
In my opinion, this is the most difficult problem.
I was lucky this time.
Because I knew about Lee Jun-seok and noticed something strange.
What if something happened in an environment where we didn’t know each other from the beginning?
‘Something like entering another person’s body and causing terrorism.’
Then wouldn’t a truly rare villain have appeared?
Even though the tower is closed.
If it were outside, I would have had to travel all over the world.
Even then, there is no guarantee that we will be able to catch him.
Even considering the cancer, it would have been dangerous to just kill him.
“I heard the U.S. is in contact with the Canadian government.”
“I heard that Smilecap left an imprint on his soul. “You can find it outside too.”
“Is that possible?”
“I don’t know. “I guess I did it because it was possible.”
For now, I had no choice but to believe.
There is no one who can definitely answer the hair loss man’s questions.
If you were this confident, you could believe it.
This means that you will take responsibility if something goes wrong.
‘Could it be that Smilecap is also a worshiper?’
I had that suspicion for a moment, but I shook my head.
Probably not.
At least he wasn’t an admirer until I met him.
‘Even if you hide it, I can check it when I go up to the 97th floor.’
A cultist wouldn’t do something like that because they know I can identify them.
From what I heard, they also say that they are interacting with Ophelia and other high-level hunters.
“Let’s finish this for now. “There’s nothing more we can do here.”
“agreement. “It’s not a problem that can be solved by worrying about it.”
“I said that when Noble Knight leaves, I will also contact Squid Squid and Sodam.”
“Are you two going to get along? The relationship that continued at the tower turned into lovers! It continues outside. Big! “Isn’t this romantic?”
Hair Loss Man snorts.
This guy liked things like this.
The points are different because he is a person with a lot of originality and naivety.
‘I’m glad I have him.’
If only dull-headed people gathered together, the atmosphere would be stiff.
“Lick, that ugly kid over there is staring at you.”
“What are you looking at, Mr. Lee? I look at the top of my head because it’s pretty. Would you like to just swipe here? “I think it feels good.”
“It really blows my mind.”
“Wow, I’m so scared!”
“A combination of Gongbleai’s harshness and Gongdu’s freshness!”
“This is the Gap Moein River?!”
“What is it? “What is Gap Moe?”
Crackling, cackling!
hmm. Cancel what I just said.
Looking at the way the kids are doing, I don’t think that will happen.
When I hear Lick Jjak and Nyang Pun’s laughter, I smile without even realizing it.
My molars are clenched tightly.
That’s it.
“Lee Jun-seok is going to visit the hospital later, right?”
“that’s right. Is this a side effect of being possessed? “It took a toll on my soul, so Ophelia decided to take care of it.”
I wanted to meet Lee Jun-seok, but recovery is slow even with the recovery option in the safe zone.
In the divine power series, Ophelia is the top one.
In addition, as if he doesn’t have the power of a savior for nothing, he has a recovery ability that is close to a miracle.
‘There’s a reason Noble Knight is geared towards tanks.’
The Noble Knight accompanying Ophelia is the cockroach itself.
Should I say they are real-life saints and paladins?
Even overseas, she is called a queen or a saint, so I said everything.
Lee Jun-seok decided to leave it to them.
“We also have to do our part.”
This traitor disturbance prevented the division between climbers and NPCs, but it also aroused suspicion.
From what Garti said, it seems like there are no traitors among the top hunters.
‘That guy doesn’t have everything figured out either.’
You never know.
Is there still more left?
It was natural to have such doubts, and it was the same for other climbers.
It may not be noticeable right away, but it may become the seed of further discord in the future.
So, you need to focus even more on climbing.
Are worshipers the problem?
‘In the end, it’s a problem that can be solved if we put pressure on them to stop them from doing anything else.’
On the 90th floor, there is Bedrok Baaluze, the king of worshipers.
According to the circumstances, the location of the guy is near the end of the 90th floor.
If we deal with him, the cultists will no longer be able to move in an organized manner.
Of course, you have to catch one Platinum level person before that.
‘Now there’s only one person left.’
Garti formed an alliance with me, and Fahiru died by my hand.
If only one remaining person is killed, the cult’s chief administrator becomes Gharti.
‘You can figure out in advance when the worshipers are going wild.’
That’s enough for now.
To that end, it was important to obtain information about the above.
-Sigh.
I took out the item Ophelia gave me.
Item received from Dragon Mountains on the 94th floor.
“Is that it? “Ophelia gave it to you?”
“I was wondering when it was open, but now it’s open.”
Members showing interest.
Even if things hadn’t gone wrong because of the traitor, they would have opened it a long time ago.
In the end, I’m glad I was able to see it when all the members were together.
“Open.”
– Click.
I carefully opened the wooden box.
What’s inside is a small bead.
Exactly.
“This is a record.”
It was an artifact that connected and recorded someone’s five senses.
Whose?
I looked into it with authority.
[Information cannot be read due to severe damage caused by chaos.]
[Caution!]
[Chaos may invade when viewing the record!]
The level of contamination is so severe that confirmation is impossible.
In the end, you have to check it yourself.
“Anyone who won’t see, tell me now.”
“Did you hear that, hair loss man?”
“hmm? why me?”
“What if my hair loss gets worse because of the chaos?”
“It’s not hair loss!”
okay.
You just see everything.
then.
“Let’s take a look.”
After exchanging glances, I placed my hand on the recording bead without anyone asking first.
At the same time, the chaos felt.
-Pajijijijijit!
An uncomfortable sensation spread throughout my body and my vision became dark.
* * *
Where am I?
That was the first question that came to mind when I came to my senses.
Emotions felt at the same time.
‘fear.’
A feeling of pressure that feels like your whole body is being crushed.
Cold sweat running down my back.
The stabbing pain continues as if I was injured, and my parched mouth has a hard time even swallowing saliva.
The person who left a clear and clear record was afraid.
My vision is shaking.
“Huh. Phew.”
Running while breathing heavily.
Because it is a memory created by synchronizing the recorder’s senses, the field of view is limited.
He just faces what he feels like a ghost in someone else’s body.
A mountain range that would have been lush with vegetation in the past.
The blowing wind is hot.
A tree engulfed in flames spit out heat as if pushing its back, and rising ash powder covered the sky.
‘I’m being chased.’
Or running away.
My thighs are hot as if I’m exerting all my might, and my neck muscles are tense with tension.
The recorder peeks behind him.
Is it a desire to go up to the sky?
The fire engulfing the tree shakes upward and what is visible beyond it.
‘darkness?’
It was a huge darkness.
What is that?
mountain? Or rocks?
It didn’t appear to be material.
The unstructured darkness wandered around, destroying everything around it.
-Sigh.
Just looking at it shook my mind.
I can feel warm blood flowing from the writer’s eyes and nose.
The shape of something unclean that should not exist.
Destructive yet relaxed, it didn’t make any sound.
– Excited. Excited.
The only sound that can be heard is the recorder’s heart beating vigorously.
Is there no one else around?
With that question in mind, I looked everywhere in my field of vision, but there was no life in sight.
Then the pain came very suddenly.
“Khaaaak!”
The recorder’s scream.
I could intuitively feel the trembling of my vocal cords.
The instep disappeared.
What hit me?
There were no signs.
There was no trap triggered or an attack.
‘It just evaporated?’
There were no traces around the missing foot.
There wasn’t even any blood flowing.
The ground was not even dug up.
suddenly. It disappeared like water evaporating.
I thought it was all for nothing, but the pain was real.
– Quad deud deuk.
In addition to the speed at which he was running, his body, unable to withstand any further impact, rolled on the floor.
Unlike the heat burning my back, I scratched the infinitely cold floor.
He grabbed the ground and moved forward.
Did the efforts pay off?
Little by little, the speed of moving forward seemed to have accelerated.
“Ugh! Ugh!”
There is only one reason why the speed increased.
Starting with the tops of my feet, my lower body was slowly but surely disappearing.
If blood had been shed, wouldn’t it have continued along the path along which it had crawled?
Unfortunately, the darkness that existed in the distance did not allow the recorder to even leave a trace.
An overwhelming presence.
A fear that tightens as if laughing at the recorder.
Chaos dances, twisting and destroying the Recorder’s recovery abilities and passive skills.
-Plop.
My head ordered me to stretch my hands forward, but my chest only rose and fell.
I tried to take a breath, but only tears came out.
I screamed, but my fingers just grabbed it of their own accord.
A feeling that comes up with a thick feeling.
‘chaos.’
Chaos destroys rules and common sense.
Chaos makes its own rules.
Chaos invades the other person’s territory.
That also applied to the body.
“Turn it off!”
The recorder, who had completely lost control of his body, crouched in place and waited for death.
Slowly losing his body and being denied even the slightest resistance.
The feeling of being isolated from the world, with even my five senses tangled together, was so terrible that it could not be expressed in words.
The only thing that performed its function until the end was hearing.
The voice of someone other than the recorder was heard.
The sound of dozens of footsteps approaching this place.
I struggle with a little hope.
I don’t know if the wriggling was done properly, but I’m here desperately. I cried out for help.
Has the wish come true?
The sound of footsteps stops nearby.
“That damned piece of chaos is still there.”
A slightly muffled voice was heard.
Did you buy it?
“Bedrock Vaaluze. “Because of that guy, there won’t be any more floors left on the 99th floor.”
“What should I do with the recording format?”
“It’s already contaminated. Just pull out the records and destroy them.”
A very cold command.
I thought all my senses were already messed up.
-Suddenly.
I felt a terrifying and exhilarating pain in the back of my neck.
