Stuck in The Tower

Episode 708: Erembat

Puhwaaaa.

The fog evaporates quickly and explosively, and the images of the giant and Erembatt become clearer.

Hair Man and Magma Fairy were right.

Erembatt was swimming in a balloon held by a female giant.

I don’t know if I should call that a balloon.

If I had to express it, a giant water bead?

At the end of the line of small drops was a sphere filled with water.

The difference is that it is clean, unlike the polluted sea.

If you looked from far away, it looked like a girl was walking with a fish in a water balloon.

Blood and collapsed buildings all around.

If only rotten water hadn’t come up through the overturned ground.

“Everyone get out!”

The important thing is that if you fight without reinforcements, you will suffer enormous damage.

Thanks to the fog evaporating, visibility was clear.

Even if I don’t show you the way, there’s no problem leaving.

I don’t know how much time is left.

The answer is to escape as quickly as possible.

“You go too!”

“What about you, brother? If you’re going to go, come with me…!”

“Listen to me!”

“Ahh!”

He kicked Kim Jung-hyun’s butt, who was still struggling with the giant, and then threw him to where the people were.

I quickly looked around.

Erembatt is not interested in this place yet.

I was just looking at the shattered village as the members advanced, creating a defensive line.

To ensure a safe escape route, everything within sight had been removed.

-Gooooooo!

Erembat twists his body again.

The Bald Man is destroying the ghost town’s clock tower with his fist.

Should I stop that?

suddenly. I had that thought, but at the same time, I felt a sense of resistance.

You can break it. Why do I worry about that?

He held his head and stepped forward.

Whenever I’m around that guy, emotions that have nothing to do with me keep rising.

Is it his ability?

Or else.

‘Is this change because I achieved some of the conditions for the fragments of chaos?’

At least, it was something that had never happened until I caught Fahiru.

There were some uncomfortable parts, but I soon came to my senses.

Let’s focus on him for now.

I don’t have to say what it means for the guy hiding in the fog to appear in person.

If we don’t stop it here, it will enter the ruins.

[Earth Wall (S) Lv.MAX]

[Frozen Break (SS) Lv6]

-Kuddeuddeuk.

– Crackling.

First, we built the wall.

The strangeness I felt when I made eye contact with that guy.

It is an action born of an unfounded belief that something sinister will happen.

In conclusion, it was not a very meaningful attempt.

About a dozen giants appeared through the fog.

-thud! thud! thud! thud!

Monsters charging fully armed.

The wall was too thin to keep them out.

The giants advance by breaking the pieces of dirt and ice that rise into the sky.

Hundreds of red eye lights of those hidden in the fog flash.

Shouts and screams heard from behind.

Even at that moment, my eyes were fixed on Erembatt and the female giant.

Other guys can figure it out somehow, but not that guy.

‘I too fell in love with his abilities for a moment.’

This is true even when mental protection is maxed out.

This phenomenon is possible because the damn chaos has chipped away at some of the skills.

Even if you think so, he is a guy who shows excessive ability.

-Guoooooo.

The guy crying sadly stares at me.

Curiosity and resentment. I narrowed my eyebrows at the pitiful gaze.

Should I be looked at like that?

“Yes.”

Deokchun also cried softly, as if he didn’t like it.

-Goo-gu-gung.

The guy moved.

To be exact, the giant holding the water bead containing the creature stepped forward.

I narrowed my eyebrows as my face became clearer.

It’s a face I’ve never seen before, even inside the ruins.

In addition, unlike other giants, his face is carefully trimmed.

Its ridiculous size and sophistication would make you mistake it for a real giant if you didn’t know its identity.

Is that a fairy with pointy ears? Or is it the elf race?

-Seuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Soon the giant held out his arm forward.

Fingers spread leisurely.

The place it pointed to was the center of the island.

As if responding to her, the residents of the village in the fog started running all at once.

-Crack.

-Kiddeuk.

The more human-shaped things run toward you, the more their appearance changes.

As the fog fades, the face flows down and the arms and legs extend or disappear.

Soon after, when I came completely to land.

“Kihyaaaaaaa!”

“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

Monsters gathered together in several clumps stretched out their snouts and legs and screamed.

There was nothing different about being a giant.

Monsters piled tens of meters high were howling and writhing their hideous bodies.

‘It pours.’

okay. I think that expression is correct.

There was something overwhelming about the parade of monsters that filled the land.

The survivors also drew their weapons towards the guys who were screaming at the top of their lungs and running towards them with their now missing hands outstretched.

“What is that!”

“You’re finally revealing your true self!”

“Don’t overdo it! A signal flare was seen. “Concentrate on defense until reinforcements arrive!”

Those who shed human skin did not hide their ferocity.

Are you trying to destroy everything on this earth?

There was no hesitation in even the smallest movement.

It doesn’t matter whether the compatriot next to you explodes or gets crushed.

It’s just a gesture of trying to eat the climber and burrow into it.

“Are you done with acting now?”

He revealed his true colors.

I wanted to say that.

I felt like it had to be that way.

“You can’t go over there.”

If it wasn’t me, I would suffer mental damage just by making eye contact with that guy.

Whatever it was, I was the one who had to deal with him.

-Quaaang!

As long as it was clear what to do, there was no need to worry.

First is the front.

I know very well that it is a special object that cannot be compared to other giants.

I rolled to the side to avoid the giant’s feet trying to trample on me.

A chaos sword that was drawn by twisting the body.

-Ji profit.

There wasn’t even a drop of blood on the sword that scraped the skin.

It doesn’t feel like cutting regular leather.

It feels like a thin steel plate has been crumpled into several layers.

It’s okay though.

“The sword doesn’t go in.”

Doesn’t that mean that if you knock on it several times, it will break through?

Quaaaang!

It exploded and quickly flew towards the giant’s abdomen.

Unlike other giants, the outfit looks ordinary at first glance.

He looks more like a traveler than a warrior.

I wish the defense was that bad.

-Whoa.

I quickly pushed away the hand that came to grab me and flew away.

The successive fire bombs gained momentum and succeeded in approaching the back.

Since I was in a blind spot, it should have been impossible to find my exact location.

“okay. “You can’t just watch.”

I know very well who I am dealing with.

I knew it.

I can’t even see it from here, but the hair is coming towards me.

If a strand of hair the size of a human body were pierced through, it would not be complete.

So I caught it.

[Cling (S) Lv.MAX]

[Cheongeunchuhwan (S)]

To bring the bearded giant to its knees with its weight like before.

Beyond the captured hair, traces of shredded wings were visible.

The huge body swayed, and the buildings that were still maintaining their shape collapsed.

I don’t know if you can call that a building.

In the fog, buildings that seemed strange but still standing were replaced with dead coral reefs and mud shells.

They must have been deceiving our eyes all this time.

The fog was his territory and the land was ours.

-Gooooooo!

Even without opening his mouth, I could hear Erembatt screaming.

A voice that seems to hit you in the brain.

Images come in fragments at the same time.

I felt dizzy and my hands lost strength.

I have no intention of just falling.

[Electric Shock (SS) Lv.MAX]

-Squeeze!

A thread made of water held by a giant.

Above it was a huge water bag filled with Erembat.

It wouldn’t be a bad idea to electrocute them at the same time.

A spark travels up the giant’s arm.

It felt like I was hit like that.

-Flash.

Erembatt’s eyes closed and when they opened again, the spark was nowhere to be seen.

What is this again?

Nullify attack?

Or is it as if he is trying to destroy anything that touches his field of vision?

I don’t know the mechanism.

That’s what all chaotic fragments are like in the first place.

but.

“It doesn’t mean it doesn’t work.”

The scorch marks running up the giant’s forearms still remain.

You won’t be able to use that ability indefinitely.

You can tell just by looking at him that the fog has cleared.

It’s about pushing hard.

Moving forward safely without bringing in fog.

Causing flooding would also be a burden to him.

-Cow.

The attacks continued, and each time, only ruins remained where the giant and I passed.

The miscellaneous items that have become insignificant are revealed, scattered, broken, and crushed.

-Gooooooooooo.

Each time, Erembatt’s crying continued for a long time.

Crispy.

When the park, which must have been made with great effort, turned upside down, Erembatt closed his eyes again.

Slowly, as if I couldn’t help the tears welling up.

Thick tears fall to the ground and ripple.

Although it is only a handful compared to the sea water rising to the bottom.

-Wow.

The short time the water drops fell felt long, and it felt like time around me had stopped.

The only thing that can move is the falling tears and the eyes watching them.

The moment it hits the floor.

– Excited.

A resonating vibration, as if my heart was pounding, swept through my entire body.

[Entering the Dream Garden of Dream Sutra.]

As the space turned colorless, my body and consciousness were sucked in.

Just before falling asleep, my heart sinks and I feel like I’m losing my mind.

Although it was a short moment, I was shocked.

Dreamscape’s Recollection Garden.

I didn’t know exactly what this meant, though.

‘This guy can’t believe it?’

I knew that the dreamscape meant Erembatt.

And being able to have a name like this inside the tower.

‘Were they from a disaster!’

disaster. That was it.

Erembat of silence and gaze.

At the same time, disaster dreamscape.

After that, the world changed.

* * *

The first thing I felt was pain and fear.

It was a cold and dark space.

Under water.

It is sinking helplessly in a place where not even the light can properly shine.

I couldn’t move my arms or legs, but it wasn’t awkward.

Now I was looking at the world through Erembatt’s eyes.

‘small.’

It is so small that it cannot be compared to the Erembatt I have seen.

Is it because it was embedded in his memory?

I could intuitively know the current state.

At most, it is the size of two fists side by side.

Just by looking at it, I could see it as being cute.

-Roaring.

I couldn’t do that when I saw the blood spreading around me.

A wound so big that even his tail couldn’t be waved properly.

It was bearable considering me and Erembatt now, but not now.

Because Erembatt was small, weak, and infinitely helpless.

They used to live in the sea, but are now sinking into the deep sea.

Surprisingly, Erembatt knew that fact.

His clear reason and spiritual energy filling his body hinted that he was a special being.

‘Was it a spirit object?’

Ability used by Erembatt.

It was the power of disaster, and many of the disasters were from spirit creatures.

However, right now, it was at best a cub, a creature that had just become a spirit creature.

Even though it was a spirit creature, it was not free from all threats.

That time when even the light had faded and I was quietly waiting for death in a place where I could neither see nor hear.

-Saaa.

I felt warmth.

A halo of light covering the wound.

Thanks to this, the face of the being reflected.

‘Female giant.’

It looked exactly like the face of the giant Erembatt followed.
