Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 777
Episode 777 Time:
How much influence does the environment have on the battlefield?
It goes without saying.
‘It’s one of the big factors.’
There is no need to think of air combat or underwater combat.
Even if the floor becomes muddy, it takes much more energy to move, and if it rains, visibility is reduced.
In that sense, the battlefield created by the magma fairy.
“Creature’s legs are melted!”
“Whoa! “I’m afraid I won’t be able to move properly!”
It was not a good environment for an elite unit that used creatures to take advantage of mobility and physical strength.
Unlike those who climbed to the 99th floor, the creature on board could not overcome the temperature and muddyness of the lava.
Riding a warhorse that can’t run freely?
That’s not a cavalry, it’s just a punching bag standing there waiting to be hit.
Sure enough, the person who seemed to be their leader made a quick decision.
“Get off the creature! “We will proceed with hand-to-hand combat!”
Those who jumped off the creature all at once threw away their mounted weapons and drew their own weapons.
Did he receive infantry training instead of cavalry training?
The guys who took their stance immediately formed a formation.
There are even shield soldiers at the front, as if to prepare for this type of situation.
It was a surprising response, though.
“It’s good because we’re at eye level!”
“Take a taste!”
Fighting on the ground is our specialty.
To begin with, I’ve almost never fought while riding something.
Slushy lava?
-Less evil!
“Wouldn’t it be a bit hot if it touches your eyes?”
“Damn you!”
There was nothing bad about it as long as it helped with the muddy fight.
The guy who screamed also kicked and sprayed lava.
“Chop chop!”
Deokchun quickly catches the flying lava and eats it.
“That’s Jiji, Jiji. “Why are you eating something strange?”
“Geueheh.”
Although I am wiping the corner of my mouth with my tongue as if it is nice to eat something hot.
I guess it’s okay because I won’t get sick if I eat some of these things.
I glanced at the sky.
‘Chaos is increasing.’
It is a sign that someone with chaos is approaching, or that Bedrock Vaaluze has unleashed more monsters and fallen people.
“30 minutes. “Escape within it.”
“Isn’t 10 minutes enough?”
Lick Jjakjak ran forward with a grin on his lips.
Normally, they play the role of artillery from behind, but it’s different when dealing with these guys.
-Push!
Lower your head to avoid the spear that extends between the shields and slide forward.
In response, the shield soldier tried to hit him with his shield.
– Tup.
Lick Jjak received it in his hand.
[Compression (SSS) Lv.MAX]
– Quad deuk!
It was just crushed.
The tower shield that covered the entire torso became the size of a fist.
“uh?”
“If you’re bruised, you’ll fall asleep.”
-Whoa whoa!
Lickjakki hit the shield soldier without a shield with his palm.
The guy whose helmet gets crushed and bounces away.
I couldn’t fly as much as I wanted.
Because I had colleagues supporting me from behind.
“I clear away obstacles!”
“I’ll help you!” jump!”
Lickjjakjjajjjajjjajjjajjajjajjajjajjajja jumped with a cry of nyangpun.
[The concept weapon, the golden mace, is flashing!]
-Tdddeudeudeudeuk!
The lava field hit by the mace instantly turned golden and spread out.
Of course, their legs were submerged in lava.
“This is not enough!”
It was only for a moment, but those whose legs were fixed to the gold pulled them out with force.
A short period of time, no more than a few seconds at most.
That was enough.
-Kwazizig!
-Crack!
For Lick Jjakjak to turn three shields into scrap metal.
It was clear that it was dangerous to be on the front line.
[Aurora Beam (SSS) Lv.MAX]
[Japanese Spear (S) Lv.MAX]
[Sweet Punishment (SSS) Lv.MAX]
Me and the Smile Cap Chiriri Fairy took cover.
“Get rid of your hair loss!”
“Oooooh!”
-Chrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrl
When Lick Jjak throws the net, the Hair Loss Man pulls it right back.
A lick flying in like a fish caught on a fishing rod.
“Tsk. “It’s a big one!”
“You idiot. Who treats someone like a fish? “Maybe it’s a mermaid.”
“It’s not a mermaid, uh… a pretty mermaid!”
“yes.”
The hair loss man has become more aware.
The example injector (physics) is also effective.
anyway.
“Is it completely open?”
The defense position where all the shields in the center have disappeared is no longer a defense position.
[Fire Bomb (SSS) Lv.MAX]
-Quaaaaang!
It’s a hole that opens up when you drill it.
There is no need to say who comes first.
I fired a fire bomb.
[Blast Furnace (SS) Lv.MAX]
The magma fairy poured out the molten metal.
[Raging Shot (SSS) Lv.MAX]
Lick-jjak shoots magic bullets from his fingers.
[Gold Explosion (SSS) Lv.MAX]
Teeing.
Nyangfun flipped the gold coin and caused an explosion.
High-level monsters Melody and Sephirim?
“I guess it’s because they’re crazy people. “He fights like crazy.”
“Hmmmm. Iknow, right.”
Watching from behind.
If there is popcorn, they will eat it too.
done. It won’t be of much help in the current situation.
Maybe it’s other monsters or broken people, but since they are monsters, it’s hard for them to use their power unless it’s a situation that involves them.
‘The worshipers are experts at dealing with monsters.’
This means that the compatibility is not good.
Everyone else aside, we alone are enough.
While we focused our firepower on the front, Talmo Man and Smile Cap did not sit still.
“I’ll go left”
“I’ll go right!”
They exchanged glances with each other, then turned to both sides and started berating the guys.
A strategy of sweeping the entire area.
Those who were attacked everywhere except the rear fought viciously.
“These damn things!”
“There is a hole in the side!”
“Hold your shield properly!”
“I don’t have a shield?”
“Then block it with your body!”
Breaking up.
Breaking down the formation you worked so hard to create and turning it into a melee.
The basic strategy of climbers who move individually or in small groups rather than in group battles is two-letter words.
“Did you know that if you had a lot of people, anything would happen?”
The people gathered here were particularly specialized in fighting multiple opponents.
Fortunately, Hair Man and Smile Cap have limited range skills.
“Ha ha ha ha ha! “Your arm muscles are terrible!”
“If you wanted to kill me, you had to be prepared to die!”
One of them has durability and toughness that doesn’t even look like a horse.
The other one was a madman who attacked and oppressed people with evil force.
Of course, they also put up strong resistance, as if they were not elite soldiers for no reason.
“Conceptless. “Open!”
-Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
-Coooooo!
Each person opened the concept weapon they had prepared.
Weapons that allow you to use the power of concepts even without concepts.
They even specialize in moving in an organized manner.
Each of the concept weapons used complemented each other and showed a synergistic effect.
“come! “Come in as much as you want!”
“Where!”
The guys who were attacked one-sidedly moved as a group like one living organism and blocked the attack.
-Sigh!
Even carrying out threatening surprise attacks from time to time.
He reflexively lowered his neck to avoid the attack and then swung his sword.
-Kaaaang!
A guy wearing a helmet-shaped concept weapon heads the ball and blocks it.
“That’s a real stone head.”
“Yes.”
As if I wasn’t dizzy, I stepped on the guy who was headbutting me in succession.
A guy who falls over so easily.
Although headbutting is powerful, the center of gravity shakes more than expected.
It doesn’t matter if you get it right, but if you miss.
-Phew!
You get hit in the stomach.
Just like that, he stuck the sword into his back.
Unlike the helmet, the armor was pierced.
Their numbers were still steadily decreasing, but compared to the beginning, the pace was much slower.
“Keep fighting!”
“We are not the end! In the end, you guys die here!”
The elite soldiers seem to have realized that, too, and they are in high spirits.
As the saying goes, the spirit of chaos is getting closer.
“30 minutes have passed.”
At my words, everyone poured their skills at once and widened the distance.
A loud noise that hits your ears.
Power doesn’t matter.
Rather, it was important to block their sight and ears and distract them.
I stretched out my hand towards those guys.
It’s not just me.
[Dig(S) Lv.MAX]
[Dig(S) Lv.MAX]
[Dig(S) Lv.MAX]
.

[Sinkhole (S)]
Dig used all at once.
Nyangfun even used artifacts.
-Kurrrrr!
“Aaaah!”
“run!”
“Where!”
Lava was sucked in like a torrent into the bottomless pit.
It was natural that the guys who had gathered together according to their habit of forming a successful list were swept away.
They weren’t the kind of people who would die just by being thrown into the ground, but that was enough.
That was our plan in the first place.
“Now let’s run away.”
“hey! I hope you guys! “You’re kicking us out!”
“As expected, an elite soldier! “It’s amazing!”
“Even if I say it, you won’t hear me?”
“aha!”
It was about practicing the concept, hitting, and then returning.
“comeback!”
A rainbow bridge was spread in the direction of Nyangfun World in the distance.
There is nothing like this for group transportation.
A ray of rainbow followed behind the battlefield where flames were still rising.
* * *
After the first mission, several battles took place.
In the process, I became accustomed to dealing with strange creatures and had some success.
Although there was friction with the elite units that appeared from time to time.
“Omg. “Isn’t this bad for us?”
Although it was not possible to annihilate those who joined after a time lag, it was possible to capture the concept weapon.
In fact, there is no one other than Lilka who can make conceptual weapons.
I also have equipment making skills and have helped Lilka make concept weapons.
‘It’s not up to my skills yet.’
Yes, it is an S-rank skill.
Conceptual weapons are special items that do not even have a rating.
Unless you are specialized in production, it is difficult to even attempt it.
In that sense, catching a worshiper and getting a weapon was good news.
“How can we arm up to three exploration teams?”
Not only we, but also the exploration team were able to equip conceptual weapons.
Power boost.
In addition, what does it mean to say that it is now possible to deal with medium-level or higher strange objects even if it is not a processing unit?
“It was difficult to maintain the territory, but it’s a bit better now.”
Although it is only an assortment, the territory must also be managed consistently.
Nyangfun also knew that and was paying a lot of attention, but now she has reached a level where she feels a little relieved.
Slowly but steadily becoming stronger.
It’s definitely a good thing.
‘What is he aiming for?’
In fact, the troops within the worshiper kingdom, called the main force, are not moving properly.
One time, I tried to force myself to get close to their territory, but there was no response.
At best, we ended up sending a few chase teams for show.
However, if you bring a large number of troops, they will attack you in huge quantities.
It was evident that he would ignore the slights but would not forgive those who openly touched him.
“It’s frustrating.”
A whopping month.
As time passed, the current situation was maintained.
“I still don’t know if the title of king really works.”
There was a message that it was recognized as a kingdom, but it was not confirmed whether it was possible to kill the king of worshipers.
You can do it with your head, but since you can’t see it with your own eyes, it’s inevitable that an inexplicable feeling of discomfort will arise.
If you look at it objectively, our side was steadily winning and becoming stronger.
“We can’t fight an all-out war if we crouch down like that.”
There was no big blow.
However, it is true that it is burdensome to enter first.
There is an absolute lack of troops.
Since the defending side can prepare, it is right for the attacking side to separate.
It would have been best for them to come this way, but they wouldn’t know that.
Fixation.
It was clear what they wanted.
“You’re wasting time.”
Their home base is the tower.
It didn’t matter how long we stayed here, but we were different.
Because all the people who have climbed up to the 99th floor cannot go out.
Those who made it to the top have left, but is that enough?
The answer is unknown.
However, time was not on our side.
“The Fallen One brings a message from the King of Worshipers.”
That wasn’t his only goal.
