Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 712
Episode 712:
After clearing the 98th floor and the 97th floor, everyone took a break.
Taking time to heal wounds, recall the battles that have taken place, and learn from them.
In addition, there was an intention to wait to see if those on the 96th floor would come up.
“They say the portal is blocked.”
“I guess it’s because the ordeal has just ended?”
“There has never been a case like this.”
“It’s on the 90th floor. “It could be like this.”
Unfortunately, the portal to the 97th floor was blocked.
It wasn’t strange.
It’s just that the situation is different, because everything on the 90th floor went this way.
This is why there was a checkpoint on the 90th floor.
‘Now that Erembat is asleep, I don’t know what will happen to those who come up later.’
Would you like to come up a little easier?
Or the system could be preparing for another ordeal.
Still, I wasn’t too worried.
This incident proved it.
Those currently climbing the tower are strong.
Smilecap also acknowledged it.
He said he did better than he expected.
On that basis.
“oh my. Are you feeling well? “I’m already so insignificant, what should I do if my legs are limping?”
“Yes. Looking at your physiology, it seems like it hurts more on that side. Are you okay?”
“haha! “You bastard!”
“what! “You started first!”
There was something about the climbers becoming closer.
I think I may have become a bit too friendly, but that’s the way it is.
Due to the nature of the tower, he often moves alone and is often stabbed by others.
That’s because me and the Pejing Alliance stepped in to deal with the large guilds and the predator worshippers.
If it weren’t for that, there wouldn’t have been much movement as a group.
Because it’s not easy to meet someone you can trust in an environment where anyone can kill the other person.
‘At most, four or five people will be able to go together.’
This is true even if you only look at those who form a group among the top hunters.
Rookie Group Fairy Club.
Although we are currently tied to the Pejing Union, four members and I got together to start it.
The Noble Knights led by Ophelia are an exception because they were created from the beginning for the purpose of being a death squad.
“Everyone is so friendly.”
“It’s because the people of the Peujing Union are crazy.”
“Someone please beat up that crazy guy.”
“You do it. “I don’t want to fight with him.”
Now we have become friends not only with the people in the alliance but also with other high-level hunters.
I also interacted with other group members.
“Hey, can I touch your armor?”
“I’m still 26.”
“…Just drink the damn shit, bro.”
“Hey! “That’s right!”
Even the relatively serious and heavy Noble Knight was colored.
Sexy guy Kim Jung-hyun.
When that idiot was next to me, the boundary was easily broken.
It may be more because there are many crazy or cheerful people among the people in the union.
It would be nice to become friends.
“Now, don’t get angry and try to follow me. Petit. love. peace!”
-Bah!
“evil! older brother! “It hurts!”
“You just shut up.”
I flattened the top of the head of the guy who was talking nonsense and shook off his hands.
Why is your head so hard?
As expected, Lilka is the best honey chestnut.
Take a peek. I looked at Nyangfun.
The one that has the closest grip on the back of the head is Nyanfun.
“What? “Why are you opening your eyes like that?”
“Oh no.”
I tried to look away.
When I die later, I’ll have to see Lilka at least once.
As I cleared the 97th floor, I felt like there really wasn’t much left.
There were things I was looking forward to, but at the same time, there was something disappointing about the thought that my relationship with the NPCs I created in the tower would end.
However, I have no intention of staying at the top.
Most people have fully recovered.
It took a little more time to replace or repair the broken weapon, but it didn’t take long.
tomorrow.
We head to the 98th floor.
Previously.
“We have to decide what to do with this.”
corner of the ruins.
I sat down on the collapsed pillar and took out the items I had put in my inventory.
A reward given in return for the system’s intervention.
On the outside, it looks like a cubic cube.
I didn’t feel any special energy.
[System Cube]
– You can overturn the system’s decision.
-Can resist bugs.
-The item will be removed after use.
There isn’t even a grade.
Still, its value could not be compared to anything else.
At least inside the tower, there are no items with this function.
It is an item that affects the system.
Overturning it means.
‘It means you can change the system’s decisions.’
Depending on how you use it, you can do great things.
For example.
“You can reject the decision when the person who has spent all their coins is kicked out.”
This means that you can prevent them from being forcibly kicked out.
Of course, I have no intention of using it in such a place.
There is no other reason, but the risk is high.
It prevents you from leaving the tower even though you have used up all your coins?
So does that person become like an NPC?
Or is it artificially creating another coin and leaving it behind?
I can not know.
The system is flexible, so even if a bug occurs, it can somehow come up with a solution.
The problem is that we don’t know what that method will be.
I’ve thought about it some more, but at least for now I have no place to write.
You can use it later when you need it.
“Whoa.”
I lay down with my back against the pillar.
Just looking at the clear sky makes you feel refreshed.
I plan to watch it a lot in advance now.
I didn’t know what would happen if I went up, so I had to enjoy it while I had time.
Also, try to predict what will be on the 98th floor.
‘Now that I think about it, you said there would be a general meeting before the smile cap goes up.’
The person who has reached the highest level in name and reality is Smilecap.
He was the only one who went up to the 98th floor.
lucky.
Being able to prepare in advance is a great advantage.
I also have personal curiosity.
‘That guy is quite a monster, but he said he failed twice.’
I can’t imagine.
What on earth is there?
However, one thing was predictable.
If there are fragments of chaos there too.
“It must be crazy difficult.”
As if Erembatt had more power than usual due to my influence on the 97th floor.
If there were fragments of chaos on the 98th floor, there was a high possibility that they were there too.
“Oh sir. wait for a sec. “Then doesn’t that mean the 99th floor is the same?”
This is a bit weird.
Are there any funny cases like this?
To deal with the fragments of chaos, there must be a lot of chaos, and the more chaos there is, the stronger the fragments of chaos become.
I can’t help but wonder what kind of system this system has become.
Is this why the theme of the 90th floor is chaos?
Confused Confused.
“I was wondering where you were stuck. wake up! “The meeting has started.”
“Ah Okay. “Don’t hit me.”
“If anyone hears it, will they think I’m just hitting them?”
I glanced at the hand that Lick Jjak was holding and then looked at him.
I was cursing with my eyes.
I wanted to see the hair loss man.
In times like this, you need a tank.
“It seems like the meeting is running a little late, but there must be a reason.”
“If there was anything to prepare separately, I would have done it in advance. “I don’t think it’s a problem that can be solved with objects or equipment.”
After chatting, we headed to the conference room.
All of the survivors on the 97th floor had already gathered.
I guess I was the last one.
“good. “I think we’re all here, so let’s get started.”
Smilecap, standing in front of the blackboard, began his presentation.
About the 98th floor that you experienced.
“As you might have guessed, there is chaos debris above. You know? “The 90th floor is a chaotic section.”
Everyone nodded.
I thought it might be the early to mid 90s, but the latter half would be full of chaotic fragments.
“Anyway, this guy is very tough. Fortunately, I know what kind of guy he is.”
It was a pretty important part.
The concept they have.
Depending on what it is, you can prepare a little bit.
“The name of the guy above is Mulan Cassen. “A monster of chivalry and punishment.”
People were excited by his declaration.
I also frowned.
The concepts that make up the chaotic fragments may be abilities or tendencies.
Maybe it’s a combination of all of those things.
For example.
‘Delverton’s disease and gambling.’
This guy likes gambling.
However, I don’t use it as an ability.
Fog of plague. Use that as the main one.
‘Erembatt is silence and gaze.’
Despite the limitations of being in the fog, both concepts were capable, unlike Delverton.
He even used the power of disaster there.
If you think about it, this wasn’t the first time something like this had happened.
It wasn’t even a measure of strength.
Kimuanu from the transformation and game I met on the 91st floor also used two abilities, but lost to me.
Even if I fight Delverton, I will lose.
However, there was one thing in common.
The concept they have is their own history and identity.
Therefore, the concept is rarely adapted to combat and the correlation is unclear.
Look at that mighty Erembhat.
‘It’s not for the purpose of fighting silence and gaze, is it?’
There is not even a connection between the two concepts.
Erembat was simply the biggest part of the being’s life.
But what about the guy he was talking about?
Mulan Cassen of Chivalry and Punishment.
‘You are strong even if you have unrelated concepts. But do they have similar concepts?
It even seems like it will directly affect the battle?
“I’ll tell you in advance, I fought that guy twice and lost both times.”
The guy scratching his head took out a recording ball from his inventory.
He probably kept it to record his fights and analyze them.
“Let’s take a look without saying anything. Then you will think for yourself.”
He prints a score on the screen.
Smilecap followed his gaze and saw his figure.
There are two record balls in total.
It didn’t take long to see it all.
Total 8 hours.
You might think it’s a long time, but it’s not if you think about fighting Erembatt for several weeks.
Even the first video.
“The first try was over in 30 minutes.”
I couldn’t last even an hour.
That’s how strong he was.
If there were a Valkyrie, would she look like this?
I knew that I had swordsmanship-related powers.
That guy.
‘Alios will be impressed when he sees it.’
It was such a destructive yet neat sword.
In particular, the divine power shown to someone who is considered an enemy is truly overwhelming.
“Anyway, that guy is the owner of the 98th floor. “I’ll tell you what to watch out for from now on.”
He then told me about the valuable information he had gained while dying.
A way to stimulate him or something.
Something like the object he is protecting.
Even the composition of the field and things like that.
Brief information is exchanged and stories are exchanged.
All of those gathered here can rightfully be called veterans.
In-depth and detailed plans were quickly made.
Smilecap, who was watching this, opened his mouth.
“First of all, here we go. Anyone have any questions?”
There was no particular reaction from everyone.
Probably because they are focusing on the ruler of the 98th floor.
So I raised my hand.
“say it.”
“Platinum level worshiper. “He must be on the 98th floor right now, right?”
Smilecap said:
He can move between floors, and I’ve even encountered him on the 97th floor.
He was not seen during this ordeal.
That’s right.
“…That’s right. “Fuck.”
It meant that it would be revealed on the 98th floor.
* * *
[Entering the 98th floor.]
As planned, I entered the portal as soon as morning dawned.
The first feeling wasn’t bad.
It is not desolate, nor is it dense with trees like a primeval forest.
The weather was slightly dry, but overall clear.
The place I arrived was a hill.
Below, there were windmills, wheat fields, and rows of single-story buildings with red roofs.
It was an idyllic scene worthy of being seen on European stamps or postcards.
“Yes.”
“Do you want to go there?”
Deokchun’s reaction went further than that.
There was a large lake.
Just looking at the lake located past the fields gives a refreshing feeling.
Maybe it’s because he swam in the polluted sea for a while, but he seems to want to go there.
It’s not bad.
Since I was up anyway, I had to move.
Not surprisingly, no one fell with me.
It was only natural that it was sent randomly the moment you crossed the portal.
Still, I had no worries.
[Hair loss on your head]: Ah. Communication security. I think I arrived at Area D. over.
[Mean Meow Punch]: This is Meow Punch. Area B mining site has arrived. Over.
[Licking the top of his head]: I think I’m in village number 10 in area A? I’ll check.
We already know the terrain of the 98th floor.
It’s not difficult to join.
The only thing that matters is dealing with the ruler of this place.
In that sense, I mentioned my position.
[Petit Gongdue]: Gong☆Dyu, the lake in area C is here!
The operation has begun.
