Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 829

Side Story Episode 8

While I was clearing the gate, the Magma Fairy was also sweeping away monsters outside.

Monsters of 5 stars or higher have the potential to survive even if lava pours down on them.

This is especially true for monsters with fire attributes, such as the Fire Armored Dragon.

however.

“Those who live in the outskirts can’t do that.”

“Yes.”

They are not relevant.

Mostly 1 to 2 stars.

Those guys will melt away and disappear, and those above 3 stars will flock to the center to avoid death.

Like that.

“It’s spectacular.”

A monster wave that spins backwards.

High-level monsters were running wild, but if low-level monsters flocked in droves, there was nothing they could do.

Unless he’s completely unintelligent, he’ll realize there’s a problem and start running away.

-The first drive out was successful.

-Get ready quickly!

A report from the Magma Fairy heard through the Hunter Watch.

I still think so.

Since Teacher Okto is nowhere to be seen, he seems to have headed towards the village.

Lilka, I’m working on something at the balloon park.

It’s a sight of NPCs working in the House of Disaster.

It’s a strange combination, but I’m glad.

Because monsters cannot enter the balloon park.

-Uuuuuuung.

You can see a transport plane passing over the sky.

A transport plane sent by Big Star.

Inside, there are also hunters raised by Big Star.

It is not at the level of brute force support.

“They’re renting a transport plane, so you should take a look.”

This is to observe the valuable experience of handling monster waves.

It’s a kind of audiovisual material.

Additionally, see how top tier hunters fight.

-The second drive out is over! I’ll catch those who run away!

“Uh oh. Good job. “Leave this to me.”

The Magma Fairy’s role is over.

It’s my turn to step forward.

-Quaaaaaaaaa!

I see a meteorite falling from the sky.

Teacher Okto also started work.

[Aurora Beam (SSS) Lv.MAX]

[Concept explosion adds power!]

Meteor shower pouring from the air!

Each one explodes with brilliant light and engulfs the entire area.

“Coooooooo!”

“Gahaaaaaaa!”

The roar of a high-level monster!

The people around him panicked and started running wild due to his life-threatening cries.

Either that or not.

-Chiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu)!

The bombing continued.

Over and over again until the ground turns over.

In addition, I used the Earth Wall.

-Roaring!

Starting from the outskirts, we slowly built a cage surrounding them.

The half-baked ones have already been swept away by the Aurora beam.

You can’t block high-grade guys with an Earth Wall, but it’s a little different when there are dozens of layers.

The wild monsters are so busy biting each other that they don’t even think about breaking through the wall.

-Shoouuuk!

Without hesitation, I fell into the center of the monster group.

[Mangeunchuhwan (S)]

– Kwajijik!

A lot of weight gain.

He landed, crushing the head of a large monster looking up into the sky, and stretched out both hands at the same time.

[Dig (S)]

[Fire Bomb (SSS) Lv.MAX]

Explodes, digging the ground to prevent escape.

The fire with the concept rises high into the sky.

-Wow!

Only the screams of monsters hit the air.

There are zero surviving monsters.

Monsters that were burned without even leaving behind bones turn into ashes and scatter.

After removing the dust with Clean, I turned on the Hunter Watch.

“Cleaning complete.”

-oh. It’s fast? Then let’s proceed!

The monster field range is so wide that it is impossible to deal with it all at once.

Because its area is roughly the same as Seoul.

That too.

“Let’s finish it today.”

It wouldn’t make sense to finish it in one day.

Mobbing and subjugating.

The moon rose at the end of a total of 7 rounds of work.

“I have to hit the ground once.”

Although most of them were burned, many of the corpses remained.

If left alone, an infectious disease unprecedented in human history may arise.

Let’s do that when we go.

“Uuuuuchcha! “I couldn’t even eat because I was concentrating.”

Lilka came out of the balloon park.

A black pillar as tall as you.

It’s an obelisk.

The thing stuck in the center is the mirror piece I got.

It served as an antenna that would connect to the tower.

-Flashing.

Was it because there were traces of a gate? It gave off a different color than before.

“Handang.”

Everyone nods at Lilka’s words.

Then, Lilka quickly arrived at the place where the gate was and placed the pillar in the ground.

-Cow!

-Chollaalalak!

At the same time, numerous circuits and magic circles spread out onto the ground.

Gold and blue light spread out dizzyingly, and eventually the obelisk split.

-Kugugugugugugung!

The obelisk, which was once a simple pillar, was expanded to a gigantic size.

A tower soaring into the sky!

It was similar to the tower I saw.

‘Connected with the tower!’

It was confirmed that the symbol and the tower were connected through the spirit world.

An obelisk that has stopped growing and stabilized.

Something passes quickly through the still sparkling piece of mirror.

what?

-Tsuzuzuzuzu.

A screen projected through a mirror.

The picture quality was not good because there was a lot of noise, but I was able to see it.

Beyond the screen.

“Kilderes?”

“Ugh! hey! “You idiot, here you go!”

I could see Kildereth.

He is sitting in the arena with a sullen expression and resting his chin.

He is frowning with his eyes closed, as if he is thinking of something.

Then suddenly.

I looked at the screen as if I felt eyes on me.

-Paat.

The screen cut out.

3 seconds at most.

It was a brief appearance, but Lilka and I continued to look at the mirror that had lost its light.

A gift from TOP.

A mirror that reflects those who have had a relationship with me.

“…I’ll have to work hard to find that piece.”

“Good.”

I think I’ll have to be busier in the future.

There are a total of 12 mirror pieces.

There are 11 more left.

I don’t know when I’ll find it, but I have to find it eventually.

Even to make an obelisk.

also.

‘Just to see how the people in the tower are doing.’

Have you forgotten us?

You might be able to remember a little bit. There were several people who climbed up to the 99th floor.

I also want to see how those who have new opportunities are doing.

I was shocked when I heard it explained, but it felt completely different when I saw it with my own eyes.

What can I say?

A feeling of finding a goal other than escaping destruction.

I took a small breath and came to my senses.

The work isn’t done yet.

“I’m going to be cleaning up the area, so why not go to the village?” Teacher Okto says he only listens to what you say.”

“Yes, thank you.”

Monster field subjugation completed.

The meteorite that Teacher Okto was flying is no longer falling.

I went straight to the village via the rainbow bridge with Lilka.

You have to move it by transport plane, so you have to be diligent.

-Taat.

After lightly landing in the village, I couldn’t help but blink for a moment.

“Oooh! Oh God!”

“I was waiting.”

“Ugh! “The warrior of God who came down on the rainbow has brought a new messenger of God!”

Although he was speaking Mongolian, I was able to understand everything thanks to the interpreter.

Teacher Okto is bowing to himself with an uncomfortable expression.

“Hi! “Go away!”

He even does that to Lilka.

“What. “This situation.”

“Well. Pseudo-G. It was there in our world too. Those who believe that the gate is God’s punishment and that the existence of the tower is God’s messenger.”

“…Does that work?”

Is there something like that not in the Middle Ages but in modern times?

Cults are a social cancer, so they exist everywhere.

“I guess it’s more like that because it’s in a remote area.”

“You’re not wrong.”

This may be because they were disconnected from the media and civilized society.

“here. “There is an incarnation in our village too.”

An old man wearing a necklace made from the bones of an unknown animal brings a child.

At most, I guess I was a middle school student.

“The child’s parents were also incarnations. “I inherited it through blood.”

I flinch.

I narrowed my eyebrows.

A child who is alert but stands proudly.

I felt it. The mana that the child has.

The power that appears to be the spirit world.

[SSS level power The eye that watches the star looks at the child of a new era.]

That was confirmed by the power.

this child.

“You have awakened.”

The incarnation they are talking about.

divinity. Perhaps the being who received the power of the system was Hunter.

Of course, middle school students cannot receive invitations from TOP.

Because there is an age limit.

That’s right.

‘The awakened person arose naturally.’

It seems like his parents were also hunters, so maybe it’s hereditary?

I needed to check this.

* * *

At the time Jo Hyun-soo was clearing the special gate that had occurred in Mongolia, there was chaos in one place and something insidious was going on in the other.

The place where the uproar occurred was the United States.

They were hunters who watched Evileye and Magma Fairy clear the monster field at the recommendation of Ijikiil.

Even at the point when it is approaching destruction, the United States is a superpower.

The number of hunters it had was numerous, but its abundant resources and technological capabilities were also its strengths.

It was one of the few countries where you could experience a decent form of culture, and it even aggressively recruited hunters from each country who were fascinated by its infrastructure.

However, they also had one weakness.

“Do you understand why the top tier is classified separately?”

There are no top tier hunters.

Those who climbed up to the 99th floor.

Because there were no people from the Big Star Guild there.

At least there was a Noble Knight who had a relationship with him before he was invited to the top, and he also had a friendly relationship with the Petin Alliance, but there was nothing missing.

“It was an unbelievable force.”

“Honestly, I thought there was an exaggeration mixed in with what was said, but that wasn’t the case at all.”

Big Star has become the largest guild in America in name and reality.

The eyes of the guild leaders, including the hunter who went to the field training, were fixed on the monitor.

The board of directors, who were usually arrogant, now remained silent.

“I also checked other top tier videos, but they are overwhelming.”

“The Magma Fairy was great, but if there’s one person I don’t want to face, it’s Evileye.”

“Even aerial combat is free. “Isn’t that a scam?”

Ijikiil raises his eyebrows and puts his feet on the table, saying he knew that would happen.

“After all, seeing something is quicker than talking. There’s a Korean proverb that says, “Seeing is worth seeing.”

“Isn’t that a Chinese character?”

“Korea also uses a lot of Chinese characters.”

“okay.”

“anyway.”

Squeak. Ijikiil, leaning against the backrest, looked at the board of directors.

“Prepare as many resources as possible for the obelisk project as quickly as possible.”

chuck. pointed upward.

A tower not visible from here. It was an act of pointing that out.

“Now there is a great task of destruction, but what will happen when the destruction is over? In times like these, it’s best to strengthen your friendship. Reach out your hand when you need it and help when you need it. “Because that’s a friend.”

“Uhm. Naturalizing Evileye as an American…”

“Ah. Don’t even try that. Then, even if you try to come, you will do the opposite.”

“What is that?”

“really. “I’m serious about this.”

The board of directors also fell silent at the serious look on Ijikiil’s face.

It was Ijikiil who knew more about Evileye than I thought.

On the other hand.

Cheonggyecheon is where those who tell dark stories in dark places are located.

“That damn bastard! “It’s top tier, so it just moves!”

One of the owners of the Korean black market that was beaten by Evil Eye.

The king of Cheonggyecheon huffed.

“No matter how much I make a living in the back alleys, I’m still a C-level hunter. Isn’t that too much for someone in the same profession?”

The King of Cheonggyecheon also climbed the tower.

The same goes for those sitting in front of him.

“We agree on that. “Lee Jun-seok brought those ridiculous Union people and persecuted us.”

The person sitting in the center opposite nods.

“They said they would hold us responsible, but in reality, we were the ones who calmed the chaos in the early stages of the cataclysm. Tsk tsk. “Young people don’t know that.”

“The guild is already on the verge of disbandment, and my personal savings have been ripped off. Does that make sense? “It’s not like Africa, where the government is ruined, but the law is still alive!”

“I heard that the guild leader in Guryong has disappeared. Is there anyone who can contact you?”

The guild leader of a large guild.

These were people who lost their past glory and hid in the shadows.

With the alliance, a large number of high-ranking hunters came out and developed animosity towards them, and many guild members left the guild.

Since there was a contract, I dragged it out somehow, but it all ended when Lee Jun-seok came to visit me a few days ago.

virtually dismantled.

“Even the president contacted me to apologize.”

“under. “That’s how they took the money and wasted it.”

“I thought so. That he too is a criminal. Tsk tsk. It’s not bold. “Seungnyang sat down.”

Now, with a public apology, social death is just around the corner.

Guryong, the number one guild among the large guilds, even its guild leader disappeared.

Who will be next? The moment when a vague feeling of anxiety sprouts.

“It’s hard for us to do anything. So shouldn’t we look at the bigger picture?”

The Eclipse guild leader, who had been silent, opened his mouth.

“People have always had to use their brains, not their strength.”

Knock knock. He laughed, tapping his head with his fingertips.

Just about 3 seconds.

“What hair? “You look like you have no head.”

The bottom of Cheonggyecheon Stream. Secret space.

The bald man, who was leaning against the wall in the corner with his arms crossed, pulled his hair.
