Stuck in The Tower

Episode 673: Fighting Dirty

It didn’t take long to create the transmission magic circle.

There was no particular reason.

“But didn’t you say this was sealed?”

“Because it’s useful.” “For you to say that, the restoration has been quite successful?”

“Hmm! greatness! I should have done something before this happened! “There is no other reason!”

This was because this guy had already polished the magic circle to some extent.

The trend has changed and no more products are being sent.

Those who try to send them away will be severely punished.

I looked at him with suspicious eyes, but he just looked away to see if he was lying and didn’t say anything.

It doesn’t matter.

‘If the way to use the Blood Altar changes anyway, there will be no need to send goods.’

At that time, the materials will not be NPCs on the 95th floor, but worshipers hidden throughout the tower.

A factory that uses NPCs as materials.

Because it is an altar of blood.

“I’ll just go for a while.”

And I have to fight him there.

It won’t be easy.

Unlike me, he must have his own way to get to the Altar of Blood.

In other words.

‘It means he took the lead first.’

I’m going in late.

He also knew I was coming, so he must have prepared.

That is why we are fully prepared.

Although there are some that have a platinum level cult following.

“It’s a half fragment of chaos. “It’s fun.”

The part about being close to the fragments of chaos bothered me.

Because I know they are strong.

Although there may be differences in combat power for each object, the basic fact that it is powerful remains the same.

-Uuuuuuung.

[Transferred to the Blood Altar.]

A transmission magic circle that emits light.

The feeling of floating that comes with it.

A stone room different from the outside has appeared.

-Slap!

As soon as my vision changed, something hit my shoulder.

If I hadn’t turned my head as soon as I felt something strange, the attack would have hit me between the eyes.

He held his sword forward and lowered his stance.

I quickly looked around, but all I could see was darkness.

[Night Vision (S) Lv.MAX]

[The darkness is too dark.]

“Huh. “Have you prepared a lot?”

Even skills don’t work.

That means one thing.

Is it the power of authority that this guy possesses?

‘A skill or artifact of a higher level than my skill.’

Skills such as night vision and underwater breathing stopped at S rank.

In most situations, the S class MAX level is enough to cover it.

This means that it is better for survival to use the resources to raise other attack skills.

‘Even if the skill level is different, it can still be effective to some extent.’

Another factor was that the efficiency was reduced and the effect did not disappear at all.

In that sense, this level of darkness.

“Skills or artifacts of at least SS level or higher.”

Since you can’t see it even when you use the power, it seems like you’re using an artifact.

‘If you don’t get close, you won’t know where it is.’

Even though it is a power, it is not all-powerful.

As your level increases, your abilities become stronger, but it’s different when your field of vision is limited to this level.

What I have is the ability to read information, not clairvoyance.

If you slowly adapt to the darkness over time, you will be able to see a little bit.

-Sweet love!

-Kaaaaang!

“okay. “There’s no way I can just leave it alone.”

A blow that came from a different direction than where it first flew.

I swung my sword a beat late, but there was nothing caught.

What did you shoot it with?

bow?

Or daggers?

It wasn’t heavy, so it probably wasn’t a hatchet or anything.

I felt a strange stinging sensation, so I think they may have thrown an awl or something.

-Paaah!

First, I kicked my feet.

The fact that I was attacked means that he has the means to see me.

I had no intention of sitting still and accepting attacks.

-Peeing!

-Saaaaaa!

I focused on my five senses.

I swung my sword after guessing where the sound was coming from, and just used my body to hit anything ambiguous.

I don’t know anything else, but my body protection skills are high compared to most NPCs.

Although the attack is annoying, it is not serious enough to inflict fatal injuries.

-Ahhhh.

“hmm!”

A foot that suddenly slips.

I immediately used cling and rolled to the side.

-Pabababat!

just as expected.

I hear the sound of something hitting the area where I am.

Looking at the faint silhouette in the heavy sound, it looks like a javelin was thrown.

‘Not only is the view limited, but the entire space is pranked.’

There are large and small mounds connected by gravel and oil pits, as well as dirt that has been scooped up.

Not only do you have a sense of direction, but you even get your feet tangled in the middle.

In short, it is a series of terrible situations.

Meanwhile, long-distance attacks and traps continue.

-Squirt!

-Pyuuuuung!

Did you say that when one sense disappears, the other senses become more sensitive?

Although he has lost most of his vision, his hearing and sense of touch are restored.

I had to take the first few attacks with my body.

It’s a little different now, though.

-Chaekang!

I swung my sword and struck it down, feeling the sound and the waves tearing the air.

Of course, this alone was not enough.

-Card knock!

“Big!”

Did they fire a ballista or something?

An unexpectedly heavy projectile flew out.

My wrist was twisted for a moment and I felt pain, but I was able to endure it.

In this way, I am at a disadvantage.

Because he’s in the dark and I’m under one-sided attack.

Even staying alert without knowing when and where an attack would come required a lot of stamina and concentration.

Even if you are a superhuman, there are limits.

That’s probably what he’s aiming for, too.

– Kugugugugugung.

Earth Wall was used to surround the area.

Use this to block its vision and prepare for projectiles.

Then, he gathered his magic power and stretched out his hand to the sky.

-Roaring.

The earthen wall collapsed and flames spewed out at the same time.

[Fire Bomb (SSS) Lv.8]

-Quaaaaaaang!

A fire bomb was fired towards the front.

Red-hot flames spreading toward the ceiling.

Even with special magical power, the visibility was only 5m at most.

The only thing more surprising than the darkness, which is much thicker than expected.

-Suuuuu.

It was Fahiru, whose eyes were shining in the shadowy space beneath the flames.

For a moment, I got goosebumps at the sight of him squatting in front of me and looking up at me with a wrinkled face.

-Suddenly.

The guy’s hand moved half a beat faster than I swung the sword.

A strike aimed precisely at the gap between the breastplate and helmet.

I felt my neck getting hot.

[You are dead.]

A clean decision of death.

Even though my vision was blurring, I stared at him.

Once is okay.

The fact that the guy who has been hiding for so long has come forward is a sufficient harvest.

It’s impossible to kill me all at once anyway.

[Shooting Life (S) Lv.MAX activated….]

I have one more life.

The moment my body tilted, the power was unleashed.

[Negative Effect (SSS) Lv.MAX]

-All positive effects have the opposite effect.

[Crushing Life (S) Lv.MAX causes your body to quickly collapse.]

Ha. really.

We even prepared the counter.

I smiled at the guy.

“I’ll see you again later.”

There was a hole in my neck and I could hear the wind blowing, but the meaning must have been conveyed.

* * *

It took less than a day until we arrived back at the Altar of Blood on the 95th floor.

At first, I thought it would take a long time because I went back to the 90th floor.

[Some of the ruler’s qualifications remain.]

[The designated representative exists.]

[There is a ruler who is friendly to you in some layers.]

[The friendly ruler opens the floor.]

[Coordinates available for movement]

-91 Floors: Survival game of night and day

-92nd floor: Bant Castle

-93: Pantadamia

-94th floor: Dragon Mountains

There was no need to continue climbing again, just to get lucky.

Go straight into the Dragon Mountains and climb upward with the help of Merrymule, the ancient dragon.

At the same time, I used the power of Garti, who had formed an alliance, to reach the 95th floor where Pahiru was.

[Entering the Blood Altar!]

-Quaaang!

As soon as they entered, they exploded and shouted.

“I’m back you bastard!”

“How already!”

A voice filled with astonishment heard from the darkness.

An aurora beam was also fired towards that place, but it did not hit.

It would have been nice if the surrounding area had been illuminated, but it only shined briefly when the light passed by, and visibility was not secured.

Still, whatever.

“I knew it.”

I didn’t come back without any plans either.

What was the reason you got hit by that guy?

Because there is no vision.

There is no way to get rid of this darkness.

It would be okay to destroy the artifact, but he wouldn’t have left it anywhere.

If so, at least.

“I just need to brighten up my surroundings, right?”

[Fire (S) Lv.MAX]

[Love and Peace (SSS) Lv.3]

-Roar!

I lit my whole body with sacred fire.

Fire itself is S-level, but if you apply SSS-level skills, things change.

I have high divine power there.

Especially when you equip an item.

[Equip the Crown of Magnarok (SSS)!]

[Equip the right wing of the wingless angel!]

-Faaaaaa!

The divine power itself emits brilliance.

I am now wearing a crown and wings.

“Evileye Holy Mode!”

Truly a human lamp.

I gave up the idea of seeing the entire Altar of Blood.

So, I will at least secure the view of my surroundings.

Don’t let him point a knife at my chin again.

Did he feel a crisis due to my struggles?

The guy who had been silent for a while opened his mouth.

“…What is Evileye? “Petit Gongdu.”

A muttering similar to talking to oneself.

It was a small voice, but it was so quiet that the words clearly caught my ear.

“oh.”

[Mental Protection (SSS) Lv.MAX]

For the first time in a very long time, I could feel deep anger.

You are truly lost.

* * *

That guy was terrible.

What should I say?

“You bastard?”

I haven’t cursed much lately, but I have to this time.

I can’t eat this because it’s so dirty.

I’m not just saying this.

“…You crazy guy. “They even scooped up shit.”

It’s really dirty.

As I was wandering around in the dark, I noticed a bad smell and did something.

I’ve always said that I avoid poop because it’s dirty, not because I’m scared.

– Push!

“damn! “It’s really dirty!”

This guy was about to become not only dirty but also terrifying.

Digging a trap in a pile of shit is basic.

“at there!”

“Why should I do that?”

Once you finally get to the point, you throw yourself into the filth without hesitation.

Dirty and cowardly.

I even got sick of it.

I didn’t even want a fair fight.

I thought I had done enough when it came to fighting in the gutter.

But on the other hand, isn’t there something like this?

Celestial.

The one who flies on top of the one who runs.

Let’s take this case.

“It’s like a guy who was thrown underground through the floor.”

He was a guy who reminded me of the graph of my cousin who bought coins before the world turned upside down and saw a return of -74%.

“haha! “If you feel unfair, come back and try again!”

Is this the difference between those who do not want to let go of human dignity and those who do?

For a moment, I thought about giving up part of my personality.

‘No. ‘How hard have I tried to maintain my character?’

I couldn’t give it up now.

[Clean (S) Lv.MAX]

-Saaaaa.

If it weren’t for the fact that I had clean skills, there would be no answer.

I moved forward, cleaning up the smelly things.

“It’s so wide.”

The Altar of Blood was originally wide, but it seems to have been expanded in the meantime, making it even larger.

So, he probably chose to hide and fight.

In the first place, he didn’t make a move because he wanted to completely capture me.

“Anyway, if it comes to tax day, it’s my victory!”

A guy giggling excitedly.

I hit my forehead without realizing it.

“Are you really that thin-minded?”

“There is no use provoking me like that. “Giggle!”

That’s right.

This guy had a unique way of thinking.

He’s so focused on what’s in front of him that he can’t see the bigger picture.

I don’t know if it was an intelligence issue or the people themselves, but one thing was clear.

‘You’re stupid.’

This is really stupid.

I feel like I was caught off guard again.

In all the time I’ve dealt with people who are smart in their own way, I’ve never come across a case like this.

So there is no need to deal with it verbally.

[Time Bomb (SSS) Lv.2]

[Time Bomb (SSS) Lv.2]

[Time Bomb (SSS) Lv.2]

.

.

.

All you have to do is show it with action.

This guy is completely mistaken.

The fundamental reason why this guy and I fight is.

‘It’s to complete the system quest.’

It’s a change in strategy.

I gave up any thought of catching him in an unfavorable environment.

From now on.

“Decorate the arena well. No matter what you do, it will be poorly constructed.”

I also go vicious.
