Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 743

Episode 743 Once we hide,

Ofelia shoots out a pillar of light.

A week has passed since I moved with that as a milestone.

When seen from a distance, it didn’t seem that far, but when we actually got there, the distance was considerable.

Although I flew through the sky at times.

“There is something strange in the sky.”

The sky was not free from monsters and strange creatures.

“Keeeeeeek!”

A strange creature opening its beak towards me.

It was similar to a wyvern, but I know very well that it is not.

[First dummy wyvern]

-Stupid!

-This is a wyvern reborn as a chimera!

“I’ve been doing it and now I’m up to the first monster.”

In other words, there is a special gate somewhere here.

It means that there is an ancient monster inside it.

Should I call it a comprehensive set?

The 99th floor was full of things I had experienced so far.

On the 4th day, we encountered disaster, so this place was truly a disaster.

“It’s hell.”

Is this a feature unique to the 99th floor?

Or does the destroyed world end up like this?

I’m not sure.

-Chagagagagagak!

First, eliminate the guy in front of you.

It flapped its wings and cut into the body of the attacking creature.

Even just in size, it is a large species.

I tore him apart like a blender while flying at high speed.

“Kihyaaa!”

The dummy wyvern crashed with a deathly scream.

It’s not just that guy.

Other guys who invaded his territory also appeared in droves.

It’s not difficult to catch.

“There is no need to deal with them all.”

Using wings also consumes a lot of sacred power and magical energy.

Land routes should also be used appropriately.

[Release the wingless angel’s left wing (SSS).]

[Release the devil’s right wing (SSS).]

I landed on the ground without hesitation.

Coo!

Dust rises and nearby trees fall.

Since I know the general direction, I plan to run in a straight line.

-Quaang!

I didn’t care about the noise.

Monsters that heard the footsteps came pouring in from all directions, but they ignored them and ran.

Monsters often have territories, so they will fall off on their own as the distance increases.

Well, what if there are people who follow you until the end?

‘You can just go and deal with it then.’

I don’t know if he will keep up with my speed.

I control my breathing and feel it even while running.

“The 99th floor is definitely spacious.”

“Yeah.”

Still, other fields have a main space, but this one is just wild.

There were villages here and there along the way.

‘It’s all a ghost town.’

The only traces left were that someone had lived there.

A story about not having met a living person yet.

In a land this big, you might have encountered it at least once.

Is it bad luck?

Or is it because there are so few NPCs living here?

It may simply be misaligned.

“oh. Park Jae-kyung also came up. Lee Jun-seok and Ijiki too.”

I was bored with just running, so I checked the community and found out that some climbers who died on the 97th floor had reached the 99th floor.

With this, the number of people increased slightly.

Yes, even though there are less than 20 people.

This too is a great shame.

This meant that only fifteen people ascended to the 99th floor.

“not bad.”

If there are even a few more people, the probability of clearing will increase.

– Taaat!

“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

“These guys come in without blinking and cause chaos.”

A guy who clearly had strange timing for climbing over a rock lunged at me, but escaped by somersaulting.

Just by looking at it, it’s low class.

He seemed like a low-level guy with no special abilities.

When I came here, I encountered numerous strange creatures and was able to confirm some information.

‘Becoming a strange thing doesn’t matter who it is.’

NPC monsters, beasts, and even inanimate objects such as plants or stones can become monsters.

However, the levels were divided here.

‘The stronger the contaminated object, the more powerful it becomes.’

Even if low-level monsters or common animals and plants have concepts, they are of little concern.

To the extent of becoming stronger or using special abilities.

Even though it is a special ability, it is only minimal.

Those guys were just called monsters.

This is a case where there is no proper name to give it.

What if an NPC or high-ranking monster turns into something strange?

From then on, we use forces that could be called rules or phenomena.

I could see that the power of the concept was used properly.

Exploration Team 5 and Pinae that I met were such cases.

Even within that, it seems like there are different grades.

“I see low-level ones often, but I haven’t seen middle-level ones since Pinae.”

The moment Goyiche moves to intermediate level, the level changes.

Should I say that it has some kind of coercion?

I think that’s why I fell asleep.

Combat ability is unknown.

The only mid-level monster I encountered was Pinae, and I didn’t have any problems with her.

‘How about a high-level monster?’

This part bothered me.

Other beings that are not disasters or fragments of chaos.

What kind of power will the higher-level object show?

It was difficult to estimate easily because there were no samples yet.

‘It would be correct to say that it is at a similar level to the fragments of chaos.’

Considering the situation, there is a high possibility that they can also handle the concept.

Of course, it wouldn’t have been a chaotic fragment since it wouldn’t have gone up to the 100th floor.

How long has it been since I raced through various thoughts?

“Is it finally a normal village?”

I discovered my first inhabited village.

It is still far from where the pillar of light was visible.

I think it would be better to do maintenance here and then move.

“Stop right there!”

“Reveal your identity!”

Two guards protecting the village stop me.

“It’s Evil Eye. I’m climbing and heading towards the pillar of light. “Do you know her as Ophelia?”

People who didn’t have much of a reaction to my name, their eyes light up when they hear the word Ophelia.

“You’re talking about someone who has inherited the karma.”

“Uhm. Looking at the list, I see a person named Evileye. Pass.”

The NPCs here also know Ophelia.

However,

‘the one who inherited the karma’. ‘Is this what you call Ophelia?’

I didn’t know what this meant.

For now, I was satisfied that I had passed the village and went inside.

“I made it better than I thought.”

Unlike the shabby walls, the interior was substantial.

It wasn’t flashy, but the roads were clean and the buildings were clearly built in a planned manner.

It had the feel of a planned city.

Although the scale is not that big.

It’s a good story for me.

The safety of this place is good.

The roads are open in all directions, so there are no alleys, so of course it is difficult for hoodlums and other miscellaneous people who seek out remote places to settle down.

“I think I’ve taken the right direction.”

I caught a passerby.

He was an old man who was difficult to see in the tower.

“I’m heading to the place where the pillar of light appeared a week ago. Do you know how long it takes from here?”

“Ah, he was heading to the capital. Do you want to become a citizen too? “It will take about 4 days to travel.”

the people?

What does this mean?

From what you’re saying, it seems like the place where Ophelia is is called the capital.

‘Kingdom? Was there anything like that here?’

It was my first time hearing this story.

Of course, the 99th floor was my first time here.

‘It looks small for a kingdom.’

Even looking at its size, it was not big enough to be called a kingdom.

How come the capital is only 4 days away from town?

Since I didn’t see any other villages on the way, this must be a village in a remote place.

Could it be that the capital city is also related to the strange entity?

As I experience strange things, I keep having doubts.

“Thank you. But what does the word ‘people’ mean?”

“Hmm? “Are you a monster?”

“no. I just arrived on the 99th floor. “I caught a few monsters.”

As proof, I showed him the by-products obtained from killing them, and only then did he nod his head.

“Now I see that he was a talented person who could become a member of the processing team. The people are just like they say. “The people of a country without a kingdom or a king.”

“Can’t you explain it a little easier?”

“That’s literally it. “We all call ourselves citizens, but we are too small to be recognized as a kingdom, and there is no one who can be called king.”

I clenched my fist for a moment.

Whether it’s your tongue or your brain, it seems like you have a habit of twisting your words. Wouldn’t a few hits on the head make it go away?

“Hmm. Just think of it as not meeting the kingdom requirements. “We are waiting until the kingdom is completed.”

“aha. All right.”

As if he sensed that there was a crisis coming to his head, he told me more simply.

In short, there is no kingdom yet.

Here, once the kingdom is established, we are waiting so that we can enter as citizens.

Saying such a simple thing is difficult.

“Then I’m busy so I’ll stop.”

After watching the old man walking away from me for a moment, I decided to look around the village.

It won’t be long before night comes.

It seems like a lot of people live here, so you should be able to sleep without worrying about strange things.

I was planning to sleep in tonight.

I moved slowly to find an inn.

“Uhm. “This time, a whack-a-mole appeared in the desert.”

“Didn’t we get rid of those guys last time?”

“What if I catch it? “It happens again.”

“There are rumors that the exploration team is being replenished, but I don’t know if there will be any applicants.”

“The processing team is also a problem. “It’s not enough to cover the number of dead people.”

“I wonder if the uncle will go and see. “I heard you climbed quite high.”

“That was a long time ago. “Even if I do, I can’t do it because I don’t have enough chaos.”

I could see people gathering in the square.

The conversation is interesting.

I think it’s a bulletin board that collects information, including the exploration team.

“Ohh.”

I saw a familiar face there.

-Mallett, the survivor of Exploration Team 5, returns!

– Recruiting new exploration team members by defeating monsters.

-Who is with him?

-Resurrection of Exploration No. 5? There is a possibility that the strange body exploration team 5 will disappear!

Druid and Talmoman in the photo.

I wondered where this guy was and what he was doing, but he was like this.

Besides, it’s Exploration Team 5.

‘Aren’t those the guys I met?’

I didn’t know there was a real Exploration Team 5 member.

I thought he died or something.

It looks like the hairless man will probably join the exploration team.

“Is there a nyangpun too?”

– Subjugating the wandering residents of the mid-level monster that was only rumored?

-Confirmed the settlement of strange creatures creating numerous ghost towns.

-I interviewed residents who were trapped in a village they couldn’t leave!

-Where is the unidentified village creator?

I heard that I met a strange villager, but it turned out to be something strange.

In the meantime, did you create a real village?

He is an amazing guy in many ways.

Is this the power of the Land of Flowers and Birds?

It looks like they noticed something strange, trapped them, and then escaped, but I wasn’t sure where they went.

You must have seen a pillar of light, so it might be coming this way.

Seeing as there isn’t much to say about it in the community, you may have encountered another strange entity.

If I know the location, I’ll go pick you up, but I don’t know.

‘Because I’m not the kind of guy who will get hurt anywhere.’

As I was nodding my head as I checked the members’ news, the surroundings began to become noisy.

“what? really?”

“Exploration Team 4 has returned.”

“Why is the exploration team returning?”

“They say the observation failed.”

“It’s a big deal.”

It looks like the exploration team has returned.

In addition to that.

“I heard that Twin Ghosts also came.”

“That guy Kellen? “Rare people came at the same time.”

“They said they would formally protest to increase the number of processing teams.”

“It would be good to have a processing team mixed in with the exploration team, but there must be people.”

Someone called the processing team also came.

I headed to the entrance of the village, mingling with the crowd of people who had come to see those returning to the village.

I had personal curiosity.

Because I was curious about what kind of people the real exploration team and processing team were.

“come.”

The door opens and a group of people covered in dust come inside.

Is it to be considerate of those who have suffered?

Everyone moved aside to allow them to pass.

“Is it true that the observation failed?”

“Then where did he disappear to?”

“Is there a place you expect?”

Each person who appeared to be a reporter asked questions.

The exploration team members, who were clearly exhausted, remained silent, but the reporters were persistent.

Some were so blatant that it was frowned upon to hold them accountable or demand the right to hear answers.

“If you’re stuck in the village, just shut up and get out.”

At that time, a man following the exploration team pulled out a sword and pointed it at the reporter’s neck.

“Sweet twin ears!”

“You really came.”

It looks like he is the double demon that people were talking about.

Uniquely, he wore two swords on both sides of his waist, and the energy he felt was sharp and violent.

“If that’s all you want to ask the person who came back from outside, I’ll tell you. “And how I caught the mole.”

“That’s it.”

His sword moves closer, creating a blood line on the reporter’s neck.

It felt like someone was going to be killed, but no one came forward.

“Tsk.”

Double-eared Kellen clicked his tongue and withdrew his sword.

Then it stops.

Make eye contact with me.

“Oh my.”

At first I frowned.

“What! There was a good guy! When did this guy appear? Hahaha!”

He comes straight towards me with a big smile.

I glanced to the side, but everyone was looking at me.

“hmm.”

[Rainbow Prism (SS)]

First, I used stealth.

I guess he’s crazy.
