Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 797
Episode 797: Why are you here?
Those who seek revenge are before me.
There was no response to a single word I shouted with my soul.
I guess so.
I didn’t shout out to a specific target.
I was just talking to people who might be nearby.
It can be seen as similar to shouting through a loudspeaker.
This is enough for now.
“Yes.”
Deokchun hands over a map.
Things I recorded while traveling across the mountain range with Mangu.
On the rough terrain, the places where totems were found and the places where they were seen are recorded.
Although it was only drawn with pictures instead of text, there was no problem recognizing it.
All you have to do is go find it.
“Well, it doesn’t seem like what I shouted had any effect at all.”
Is it because of the title effect?
I don’t know if I was instinctively drawn to it or if I had a good ear, but I got the feeling that the forgotten people were moving.
-Oooooh.
Because the chaos rising into the air illuminated the world like an aurora.
A scenery never seen before.
As I went through the spirit world and saw invisible things, I was able to see things like this.
What can I say?
‘I guess I was blind all this time.’
Should I say that the world has become clearer?
I used the rainbow bridge again.
You have to be busy.
There wasn’t much time given to me.
“King of worshippers. “I don’t know what he might do.”
This guy has already faced death twice.
Nevertheless, it is a living monster.
It was highly likely that other preparations had been prepared.
He’s been living in the tower for a long time, so he should have had plenty of time to prepare.
Destroying the history that has been built up over time.
That was my job.
In order to do that, the help of the forgotten was desperately needed.
When I was in the spirit world, even though there was a distance, it helped me, but now it seems like I can’t do that because it’s reality.
That was also the reason why I went to see them in person.
‘A total of 76 totems and objects witnessed by Deokchun and Mangu.’
There are probably many more forgotten people beyond the mountains, but we cannot find them all.
Aside from everything else.
“There aren’t many devices made with Lilka.”
The speed of making it wasn’t a problem because I had a reel car, but the ingredients themselves were lacking.
Arcane Jam wasn’t something I just wanted to make.
I have a total of 24 symbols.
If it is a small number, it is small. If it is a lot, it is a large number.
Collect as much as you can in half a day.
The start will be over there.
“You’ve come to the right place. “The shape is just right.”
A rock that rises heterogeneously above the grassland.
The peak is shaved as if someone took a bite.
The totem I found here.
“Is this it?”
Paper airplane.
Although it looked simple, it did not let down its guard.
Even if it seems like a trivial concept, the beings who use it won’t do that.
-Taat.
I went down.
There was no distinct energy.
The feeling spread widely to the sky and the ground, but I could not catch anything.
‘Has it disappeared?’
It is possible that those who witnessed it are still alive, but those who left behind the symbol may not be.
They may have already exhausted their strength and been unable to avoid extinction, so they dispersed.
Although it was within the expected range, I couldn’t help but feel sick.
“But I already came.”
I took out the symbol from my inventory and placed it under the rock.
In any case, it is a useless object unless it is a being with the correct symbol.
We should at least pay tribute to the person who lost part of his life to Bedrock Vaaluze.
Right then.
– Duung.
The world shook like ripples on calm water.
This feeling.
‘Image worlds overlapped.’
A world similar to the spirit world, yet extremely personal.
It is not a place where souls gather like the afterlife.
【Oh… my wish.】
Because it was the soul of a forgotten person.
A being that crouched down and locked itself in its own world to prevent extinction.
[I met Serutu of Delivery and ■■ of the Forgotten One.]
Serutu looks at me, holding the symbol I laid down as if it were precious.
My body is blurry.
This is also true in my own imagination.
‘It’s on the verge of extinction.’
It meant that I didn’t have the strength to catch myself as I was falling apart.
In other words.
【Are you the king of a forgotten world?】
It also meant that this was the last chance to find his own concept before he disappeared.
“that’s right. “It’s grandiose, but that’s the way it is.”
【I could feel it. I caught a glimpse of a side in the battle with the ugly king.】
A side?
I wondered for a moment what kind of convenience I was talking about.
“It’s that time.”
It seems that among the concepts that came out when fighting him was his.
When I thought about it, it was strange.
How the forgotten people found me despite the distance.
The title may have had an effect, but it seems that it was possible because he felt the concept of being taken away from him.
Are there any of the concepts I cut down that belong to him?
I felt nervous for a moment.
‘If I am the owner of the concept I destroyed, wouldn’t I be in danger too?’
Because they destroyed the concept they cherished.
I may have thought it was too easy.
Not all Forgotten Ones are friendly to me.
【There is nothing to be nervous about. My concept is still in his hands.】
“That’s a good thing. “There were so many concepts that were eliminated back then.”
I was wondering if I should fight from the beginning, but if I do this, things will change.
I held out my hand to the guy.
“Do you want to join us?”
【Of course. I have ■■ to deliver.】
“Once I get in here, I’ll be half asleep for a while. “I’ll call you again when I run into him.”
The symbolic body is a kind of vessel and means of transportation.
Until then, save your strength as much as possible.
Nod.
Serutu nodded slowly.
-Seuuuu!
The mental world collapses.
Serutu’s presence in the world melting away like a haze is compressed and begins to be sucked into the symbolic form.
A halo of light spreads along with it.
The sight of life permeating one world and one life was quite beautiful.
【Let me give you some advice.】
He opened his mouth before being completely sucked into the symbol.
【Find Dumagos.】
Dumagos?
Is this the name of another forgotten person?
The forgotten ones may know each other.
【If you can persuade someone who was once a dragon, it will be a great help.】
-Drunk.
With those words, Serutu took on the symbol of a paper airplane.
Because it was the most comfortable place for him.
The symbolism was put back in.
I got one person with this.
“A forgotten dragon born.”
I have to look for that guy too.
Since he was born as a dragon, the strongest race of creatures, there is no way to predict how strong he will be.
When I saw that it needed persuasion, I didn’t think it would follow me easily, but I’ll give it a try.
furthermore.
“It might be the guy I saw before.”
I had already seen a dragon-shaped being.
As I was wandering across the mountains with the Magma Fairy, I saw a dragon riding on a collapsed tower.
You’ll find out when you go.
I kicked my foot again.
It’s time to head to the next destination.
* * *
Half a day.
In terms of time, it is 3 to 4 hours.
At first glance, it seemed like a long time, but in reality, it wasn’t that long.
In particular, it is not enough to achieve the goal while traveling long distances.
I forced a march, even though it was unreasonable.
“There were 16 objects that came into contact. “At most, 6 of them joined.”
It was small, but even this amount is a shame that makes no sense.
Because it was a task that required traveling around the entire range that Deokchun and Mangu had traveled.
Well, I wasn’t able to check everything because I didn’t have enough time, but I only moved to places that took the shortest route.
If you look at it objectively.
“I must have skimmed about 1/3 of it.”
In the meantime, I was able to confirm 16 objects, so it was not a bad achievement, but I couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
It would have been nice if I could have brought everyone I met, but realistically it was impossible.
There were also cases where there was no forgotten person where the totem was found.
‘I fought four battles.’
There were also people who were hostile to me.
The soul has already collapsed to the point of cracks and reason has disappeared.
‘There was also a person whose personality was completely twisted and he became a monster.’
There were various other cases as well.
As expected, I also encountered and attacked the owners of the concept I had destroyed.
Of course, not everyone is like that.
Even among those whose concepts were broken, there are those who joined.
Those who pledge to take revenge on the concept that has already been taken away.
Just as he did, the King of Worship also actively participated, saying that we should try to lose concepts.
There were times when I simply felt grateful that someone came to see me as I was disappearing.
It’s a good thing for me though.
“You have to choose slowly.”
Half the day is already over.
You have to decide whether to stop here or explore further.
There are no problems in the community so far.
[Mean Meow Punch]: How come you’re so quiet?
[Sexy Guy]: I can’t even see the worshipers, are you?
On the contrary, it is so peaceful that it almost looks suspicious.
It’s fortunate that worshipers haven’t flocked to the fortress, but they can’t be seen.
Where on earth did he go?
[Licking the top of his head]: It’s good for us. I found the way to the portal
[hair loss from my head]: I think this goes towards the mountains?
The two take advantage of the opportunity and head to the portal.
In a way, it was an opportunity.
‘It’s still safe.’
decided.
You may not be able to move completely deep, but if you move closer to the mountain range, you will be able to join them quickly even if problems arise.
After paying, I stood up.
If possible.
‘I need to finish it quickly and take a look at the portal.’
Because I have more than one question.
I looked at the map.
Where will you go?
A place close to mountain ranges.
A strong being if possible.
What satisfies both conditions.
“Dragon.”
I have to go to the place where I saw him.
It wasn’t that far.
All I had to do was move in the same direction I came from.
-Quaaaang!
I threw myself away using the fire bomb.
Maybe it was because I had an explosion of concepts, but other than the noise, it moved so quickly.
Right then.
[The recipient of the suspicious invitation reacts!]
The title responded.
It’s been a while since this happened, but where?
I was puzzled for a moment.
‘Fog?’
Was there originally fog in this area?
I remember the weather was nice until just now.
I narrowed my eyes.
Chaos that was normally invisible becomes clearer.
Far away.
“Do you think you’ve come to the right place?”
“Yes.”
A crookedly leaning tower and a desert appeared.
A monster I saw with the Magma Fairy.
The one still perched on it, spreading its huge wings, shows off its presence.
Even though he became a forgotten person, he still has this momentum.
It’s different from other guys.
Unlike last time, the guy who is looking straight at me snorts, and a fire erupts.
Blood-red runes and geometric patterns flow throughout the body.
It was as if his whole body was covered in blood.
I knew it as soon as I saw it.
“You are that guy.”
Dragon.
That guy was a dragon.
“Dumagos.”
“You’re calling my name so carelessly. “That’s not polite.”
It’s okay to call me by name, but what’s the etiquette?
It’s surprising.
I never thought you would call me first.
the problem is.
‘Why doesn’t it look favorable?’
The color of emotions centered around him is negative.
What should I say about that?
Fighting spirit? tiff? Unpleasant?
It’s not a good feeling anyway.
He’s looking down at me.
“You little thing who calls yourself a king.”
A deep voice comes out.
“Are you trying to challenge the King of Worshipers?”
“I already took the challenge. “I’m going to catch it this time.”
“You’re so cocky!”
Seeing the guy getting angry, I reflexively pulled out my sword.
what?
Could it be that this guy is a subordinate of the King of Worshipers?
That’s what I thought, but what made him angry was another point.
“How dare you stand on this body! “You, you, are the king, not me!”
“No…”
He was just crazy.
“Prove that you are the king of the forgotten! “No, I will find out.”
[Dumagos of Chaos Fragment Apocalypse and ■■ reveals his teeth!]
Just the fact that he emits light is a pain in the ass.
“There it is! It’s the dragon of the apocalypse!”
“Concept collection team assemble!”
“This is the one the king wants!”
Worshipers who were said to have disappeared have appeared.
