Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 799

Chapter 799: Bring everyone in.

The ranking with Dumagos was quickly completed.

Because this guy got so small, he couldn’t use his strength at all.

“Ugh, I’m so angry! “You cowardly aim for a time when you are weak!”

“Exploiting weak points is the basis of battle.”

What are you saying for granted?

Although there was a bit of a fight, he decided to go along.

It’s not because I have discipline.

“It’s fascinating. “It doesn’t really show up.”

“I told you. That guy won’t come to me. At least until he regains his strength.”

This is because the king of worship did not appear.

I feel like I now acknowledge that I am the cause.

“The scum that fought earlier are the advance team. “It’s role is to find the target and delay time to prevent it from escaping.”

“As expected, there is a separate main unit?”

“Because the King of Worshipers does not take risks. “There’s no need for that.”

To agree.

There are more than one subordinate who would give up their lives if it were his order, so is there any need for him to step forward?

All you have to do is show up when you need it at important moments.

“How big is the main university?”

“Hmm. I don’t know if you’re talking about the entire university. “Because they hunt for concepts simultaneously.”

It wasn’t done one at a time.

Well, it is more efficient that way.

The advance team and main unit can split up, catch the game, and the worshiper’s king can harvest them one by one.

“Usually there are at least 100 and at most 200 people who come to visit. “It includes an elite unit and the producer also comes with it.”

“producer?”

“Those who design and create strange things and things that have completely collapsed. “We do concept extraction and all sorts of things.”

This is my first time hearing this.

A producer.

Certainly, the number of strange entities was too large for one king of worship to have created them.

I just thought that Goeseongchae made them like a factory.

‘If you think about it, even a strange object can only be created if the combination is right.’

It was natural for there to be separate people for assembly and design.

I’m a little concerned.

In a way, doesn’t that mean you are an expert in concepts?

You can only do such things if you have extensive knowledge.

if so.

‘Even climbers are not free.’

Most of the climbers left on the tower now have the concept.

It was obvious that if that was exploited, we would be in trouble.

“What should I watch out for? “What about these guys called producers?”

“The producer itself is not strong. Because they are close to scholars. “If you only consider your own abilities.”

Crack.

The guy ground his teeth.

“If you mutate, the story is different. They can temporarily turn themselves into monsters or fragments of chaos. “These guys are too sophisticated to take care of other people’s things.”

indeed. They are not easy to see.

It is convenient to think of the remaining troops as supporting them.

That’s it.

“Hey, can you keep the shape?”

“possible. This body is the great dragon of the end. “You don’t have to fall into a spirit state like other guys.”

The thing that seemed to have disappeared last time was actually because of its small size, so I couldn’t see it.

It can continue to maintain its shape.

Looking at it now, it looks closer to a state of power saving rather than maintenance.

‘not bad. When you become a soul, your movements are restricted.’

Due to the nature of almost losing all connection with the body and remaining in the spirit state, it is impossible to move far.

Because in order to come back to life, you have to have a body.

A not bad idea occurred to me.

Before that, there was something I was curious about earlier.

“They say it’s called the Dragon of the Apocalypse.”

Worshipers also called him that.

Dragon of the Apocalypse.

A being related to the apocalypse.

The concept we have is also coming to an end.

A concept is something that represents the life one has lived.

What kind of life do you have to live to have the concept of the end?

“Are you referring to my tinnitus? Yes. This body is the agent of that great end!”

What makes this guy so proud is that he spreads his cute wings wide.

Maybe it was because he was so small, but he wasn’t very dignified.

“I tried to end the world at best. “The damn tower destroyed the world faster than me.”

“He was crazy.”

“No, it was a wise move.”

Dumagos’ eyes sink.

“Because we knew of the existence of the tower, my people repeatedly ended the world and reborn it again before the karma the world had built up exploded.”

How does the tower appear?

I already know the answer to that.

There was a limit to the amount of chaos that each world could handle, and if it exceeded that standard.

‘A tower appears.’

War, strife, discord, etc.

When big and small karma accumulates and chaos grows, the tower comes.

To resolve the confusion that has gone beyond the scope.

Those are the rules of the world.

Every world will one day reach the top.

‘I never imagined that they would cause the apocalypse before that and avoid the tower.’

This is a dangerous and crazy idea.

It’s even more amazing that we’ve done that consistently.

“We view everything except race as trivial. “I decided that it would be better to maintain the world even if it were erased once.”

“You’re arrogant.”

“We were born into that kind of race.”

Looking at the world as a whole, it might have been a reasonable choice.

Other races will see blood.

“Isn’t it better than the world completely collapsing?”

It might have been better compared to a complete apocalypse.

I was curious about it before.

What happens to the destroyed world?

Will it end with all intelligent beings living in the world dying?

Or will the real world itself disappear?

“I should have hurried a little more. “Our world would have survived if the insignificant bastards hadn’t fought back.”

“I have a question.”

“What is it?”

“You said you knew of the existence of the tower. “How did you know?”

“Because it appeared in the distant past. “I have been observing it ever since.”

Appeared in the past.

then.

‘It looks like the world is not disappearing completely.’

This means that a very small number of survivors somehow survived and rebuilt civilization.

perhaps.

‘There may be another way to overcome destruction.’

Why did the Tower choose destruction as a way to eliminate the chaos that the world had built up?

That is connected to what Dumagos said.

Eliminate the cause.

Chaos doesn’t just accumulate forever.

If that were the case, chaos would have remained even when the end came.

In other words, chaos slowly disappears if no additions are made.

This is where a problem arises.

If destruction is really the only way to resolve the chaos that has accumulated in the world, why does the tower provide a chance?

Why do they open the tower and give them the power to overcome destruction?

I believe there is a solution to this.

“What happens if we overcome the destruction of Dumagos without collapsing?”

If you survive by destroying the monsters and chaotic fragments that are coming in the end.

What will be the result if we overcome without falling?

Will the tower wait until the world falls apart?

“You’re asking a strange question. “No world has escaped destruction.”

“There are places where we have overcome.”

6th Heaven.

The world of angels inherited by Ophelia overcame destruction.

“I know where you are talking. okay. “There was an unusual case.”

The guy who shook his head opened his mouth.

“Simple. The trials you have overcome are no longer trials. “The world’s status is rising.”

“It’s world-class.”

“It means that the total amount of chaos that can be handled increases. It can also be said that it overcame destruction. “It may be as unlikely as possible.”

Those who overcome trials will become stronger.

Simple logic indeed.

The world was no different.

I finally understand.

Why does the tower invite climbers?

Are rewards given to those who overcome all kinds of dangers and traps to rise above?

Did you leave one last chance for NPCs who came from an already destroyed world?

Because we can overcome it.

Even though it was extremely difficult and difficult, I did it because there was a possibility.

‘There is no worst case.’

Impossible and near-impossible.

The difference is big.

I opened my inventory with a little bit of relief.

It’s good news that there is a possibility of overcoming destruction, but we can’t just run the happiness circuit.

Because even at this very moment, the King of Worship was growing in strength.

“Are any of these your symbols?”

The symbol prepared with Lilka was laid out on the floor.

It was made based on things Deokchun discovered, so it is unknown who the actual owner is.

“Oh, strangely enough, it has a symbolic body.”

He pointed to one thing.

It was a symbol in the shape of a cracked egg.

“If you use this, you will be able to use more power. Although it is short, it may be possible to maintain its shape intact.”

That’s what a symbol is.

Even if something is lost, traces remain.

Since the permanence of life is that strong, it can be restored to its original form as if reminiscing about the past.

Because it’s done by hand, the maintenance time is short and you can’t use the power at its peak completely, but it’s a world of difference from not having it at all.

In addition, it helps protect the body from fading.

“King of worshippers. “Let’s catch it together.”

I made a suggestion.

“I was planning on getting revenge at any time, even if it wasn’t you. “I think it’s a little faster.”

It held out its short front paw.

A warm handshake between someone who wants to clear the 99th floor and someone who dreams of revenge.

-Seuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

A part of its soul is sucked into the symbol.

Those who were weakened rested in the symbolic body, but this one is strong.

“Hmm. “It’s definitely easier to control my body.”

-Clud-clack-clack.

The body that had become small becomes larger again.

The guy who was tossing and turning, as if looking for the optimal size, stopped changing, looking a little smaller than before.

Well, I think this side is ready.

-Jagrak.

I gathered the symbols together and handed them over to him.

“Why are you giving me this…?”

“I heard you are the strongest of the forgotten ones, is that true?”

“That sounds obvious.”

“Then bring it.”

“huh?”

“Take everyone with you.”

I’m going to the kids.

* * *

The secret passage of the fortress.

Two people ran to the path leading to the cliff where the portal was hidden.

“Is this the right road?”

“It’s clear to my brilliant mind!”

“Mr. Lee. “I don’t think so.”

Lick-jjak suddenly became anxious and glared at the back of the hair-loss man’s head.

Since I was in a special rental, I left it to the hair removal man to get to my destination.

Lick Jjak also memorized the path he had taken in case he took a wrong turn.

‘I’m starting to get confused.’

There was a limit to human memory.

“right!”

“Get out of here!”

-Quaaaagh!

It wasn’t easy to remember as the monsters and remnants of the cult frequently attacked and fought.

just.

– Crackling.

Just prepare by leaving a trace in the passage you passed.

The road was that complicated.

Thanks to the coordinates left by Smilecap, they were somehow getting closer, but it was up to the two of them to find a clear path.

“Huh? “I received a message from Gongdu.”

Hearing the shouts of the hair loss man ahead of him, Lickjjak also checked the community.

[Petit Gongdu]: The admirer and his son are in the mountains somewhere!

[Petit Gongdu]: I have a subordinate (not) who can help me gather reinforcements, so I’m going there!

“oh! “There weren’t many worshipers with the king, so I guess they went somewhere else?”

“That’s a good thing, but if she really goes out, I’ll have to send her to a psychiatrist.”

“haha! What are you talking about. “It’s not like that in reality.”

“Isn’t that more of a problem? I mean, he’s an intelligent crazy guy. “What are you going to do outside?”

I heard that preparations are already in full swing outside to commemorate the day of Gongdu’s return.

It was on the 80th floor, and Lee Jun-seok talked about it in a private message.

He said he was planning to prepare a surprise party.

There was no crazy person out there impersonating Gongdu, and the identity verification process would have been completed.

As a result, it was the accepted opinion that Petit Gondue was still at the top.

‘There’s no one left in the tower, you idiot.’

People who already know already know.

Who is left in the tower?

Likjjak closed his eyes tightly as he remembered his friend’s anticipated social burial.

That too for a while.

“But were there any reinforcements left?”

I had a doubt.

“hmm. “Do you have one chef friend left?”

“I don’t think you mean him.”

I frowned, but nothing came to mind.

So I believed it. I guess I would have found a way somehow, just like I did until now.

-Squeak!

“In just a little while we will reach the mountains…!”

“Oh what. town!”

The moment the hairless man checks the coordinates and turns down an alley.

The bald man suddenly straightened up and covered Lick Jjakjak’s mouth.

The hair loss man’s heart is beating fast.

Muscles swell with alertness.

-Sigh.

Sensing that something was amiss, Likjak removed the hair man’s hand and lowered his posture.

The darkness beyond the alley was gurgling.

The bodies of countless worshipers clinging to the wall were swelling.

I know what that phenomenon is.

A phenomenon that occurs when you accept a concept that does not fit your body.

“Ugh. These guys can’t be used at all.”

The person who looked at those who were turning into monsters with callous eyes poked them.

No sympathy whatsoever.

I was touching it as if I was checking the condition of the item.

Special people among those who follow the King of Worshipers.

“This design is not good.”

He was a designer.
