Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 77 Let’s get some help.

The closer we get to the oasis, the stronger the vibration of the treasure bag gets.

When you take out the Hyaltine Relic Key, it shines brightly and emits divine power.

It is certainly. There are ruins on the 17th floor.

“I asked when he would come out, but he was here.”

“To the ark.”

It seemed so.

Information about the Holy Kingdom came out on the 15th floor.

I wanted the ruins to come out before I reached the 20th floor at the latest.

Still, it’s a desert.

“Couldn’t it be buried under the desert?”

Then it’s difficult. Even if they knew the exact location, they did not know how long they would sell the land.

Even if you dig down hard, if there is no entrance, you have to start over.

There is also a way to break the protruding part ignorantly.

“Can I penetrate the place designated by the system as a ruin?”

“On him. to him.”

It seems that my strength is still not enough.

Deokchun shook his head, probably thinking the same thing.

I think it’s important to look first.

We did some hunting on the way.

-Suddenly

-Evil!

Slashed Sandman and Sandworm.

Even if you go, it would be better to leave the portal behind.

The top is where you don’t know what will happen.

It is good to be prepared as much as possible.

[Kill Sandman (25/30)]

[Kill Sandworm (27/30)]

[Find an Oasis (1/1)]

The clear conditions stack up one by one.

Monsters don’t come close to me because I’m going around slaughtering.

then.

[Dig (F) Lv.5]

“Huh?”

[Cutting (C) Lv.1]

I have no choice but to find it and kill it myself.

While digging in the sand, he cut the sandworm that appeared in half.

A guy who collapses and spurts out sticky bodily fluids.

Other monsters crawled out, probably because they smelled it.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 9]

-Quaaaaaang!

It caused an explosion at those who ate the bodies of dead sandworms.

Anyway, I love eating idiots.

Thanks to that, I was able to easily satisfy the clear conditions.

[A portal is created.]

A portal was created on the other side of the oasis.

Naturally, I have no intention of passing.

From now on, we need to find the ruins.

I didn’t know if it would be the last hour.

The key to the ruins rings, but it doesn’t kindly give directions.

Perhaps because it was a relic related to the Holy Kingdom, the frost flame sword he was holding began to tremble weakly.

“If you look for it, it will come out someday.”

First, I plan to look around Oasis.

An oasis in the middle of the desert. Holy Kingdom Ruins.

Don’t you just feel

– Whoa whoa whoa.

A sandstorm was blowing all the time, but the oasis was as quiet as it was.

Is there something special?

Maybe it’s because the trees that grow like an oasis block the wind.

Trees that get smaller as you go to the center of the oasis.

Previously, only stocky shrubs and weeds were trodden on, but curiously there were no other signs of life.

In an environment like this, there are probably scorpions and lizards.

–

When I put my hand inside the oasis, I felt a pleasant coolness.

A serenely rippling lake.

It’s about the size of 3 or 4 high school playgrounds?

It is the size of a lake.

“Ahhh!”

“Hey hey hey!”

As I carefully looked around, Deokchun threw himself into the oasis.

Do you throw yourself knowing what’s inside?

I was worried for a moment, but then I let out a sigh.

“Well, what would you do if I attacked you?”

He is a young creature.

He is also higher in rank than me.

I often read information about Deokchun, and it says that he is still higher in rank than me.

Come to think of it, the 4-star holy weapon I met on the 15th floor was also hit.

How acidic it is to corrode that mighty body.

I don’t know what will happen if we fight one-on-one, but Deokchun is the one who can eat 3-star wraps.

Maybe it’s because it’s annoying, but I didn’t have to step out myself, maybe there were some restrictions.

‘I’m still growing up.’

I glanced at the tail of Deokchun who was swimming happily.

I think it’s a bit longer than when I first saw it.

When are you going to become an adult?

“okay. you play I’ll do some research.”

“That’s it.”

Crying out, Deokchun dived.

Frogs are all over the place. The owner seems to be digging in the sand in the scorching sun.

“The vibrations did get stronger.”

I looked at the ruin key I was holding.

As soon as I entered the oasis, I was shaking more strongly.

It must be somewhere around here.

Since there is nothing visible to the naked eye, there is a high probability that it is buried in the ground.

Do you have to dig the ground after all?

[Dig (F) Lv. 5]

-Saaaaaagh

A pit is dug with the sound of sand being swept away.

It’s not the dirt floor, but the collapsed area rolls inward.

This is what I have to endure.

“I’ll have to go all the way around the oasis.”

Then it will give you some direction.

Start from the east.

[Dig (F) Lv.5]

[Dig (F) Lv.5]

[Dig (F) Lv.5]

[Dig (F) Lv.5]

I used Digg consecutively.

I have no intention of selling too wide.

once deeply. I thought to figure out the intensity of vibration by putting a distance between each hole.

“Whoa.”

Even though it has fire resistance, it is quite hot.

Is it because there is not a single cloud? Or is it because the shade doesn’t reach it?

I don’t think it was this hot on the 16th floor, at the border of the fire spirit realm.

Maybe it’s because it’s different from natural heat.

“Let’s go in.”

Dig a hole and dig it again.

I went inside when I dug down to the place where it was damp with the water of the oasis.

It’s about 5 meters long.

Poured sand landed on my hair, but I ignored it and looked at the key’s reaction.

– Woo-woo-woo!

A little bit stronger.

This makes it clear that there are ruins underground.

“Let’s keep digging in 10-meter increments.”

After I got out of the pit, I continued to use the dig as I walked along the oasis.

Until the magic power runs out.

How many hours did you invest in digging?

“Wow Mr. What’s this.”

I was able to dig up the entire area around the oasis.

The dig level has risen to 7.

Since I’ve been doing this for half a day, it’s a natural result.

I couldn’t find any trace of the ruins.

“The reaction is the same.”

Either way, when a place with a strong reaction comes out, the search will focus on that place.

If the reaction is evenly like this, it is difficult to pinpoint the location.

A sense of despair creeps in.

I’ll have to take a break and find another way.

“Deokchun, let’s eat.”

I returned to the oasis in search of Deokchun, who was swimming in the lake with a tired body.

it’s still hot

This tower doesn’t even think of the sun going down, as if it’s not even night.

“To the ark.”

A guy lying on the water.

Wave your hand in a relaxed gesture.

I felt a sense of shame.

Someone had a hard time!

As punishment, I will eat only vegetables for today’s meal.

“Gww!”

After reading my thoughts, Deokchun shouted and threw something at me.

It flew aiming for the head, but it was easy enough to catch it.

Whoops. It was only for a while that he smiled triumphantly.

“ok?”

[Remnants of Hyaltine Ruins]

I stared at the fragments in my hand.

wreck? Doesn’t that come from where the ruins are?

Why do you have something that didn’t come out of the ground like that?

“Where did you get this?”

“Eugheh.”

I asked Deokchun, but he only sticks out his tongue and doesn’t give any hints.

I’m pissed off is this

If it comes out like this, I have a way.

I’ll show you the scary taste of Koreans.

“Deok Chun.”

I moved closer to Deokchun.

Deokchun just glared at me with his eyes open.

Cheeky guy Let’s see how long you can do that.

I opened the shop window and bought special lunch boxes and snacks.

and.

“Here is something delicious, Youngmul. Please calm down and give me some hints. Hahaha! They even have drinks here!”

I neatly unwrapped the lunch box and gave it to Deokchun as a colonel.

did you see This is the skill of those who are tired of capitalism and social life.

You can do flattery too if you want.

“Eh…”

Did he feel the dread of being a member of society?

Deokchun, who was shaking his head, came out of the water and ate.

30 minutes later.

“Quack.”

I was able to receive guidance from Deokchun.

The place he pointed to was a waterside inside the oasis.

“You found it in here?”

“To that.”

I pondered for a while.

oasis. The reaction that did not change even after digging all around it.

“I think it’s okay to be in the water.”

If you are inside the lake, it is possible enough.

Should I go in eventually?

know how deep it will be.

There are more barriers to entry than you might think.

The ability to breathe underwater exists, but I don’t have it.

Skills like scuba are B-class, so the price is quite expensive, and they don’t even appear in my shop window.

I raised it to silver grade, but the skill is only handled up to C grade.

Private transactions are also the answer.

“I don’t know if it’s because there’s so much demand.”

Even if there is, there are no points right now.

I only had 4000 points left because I just bought a special lunch box.

While hunting, I did earn a little bit of points, but it’s true that it’s not enough.

“Do I have to buy even a one-off item?”

I started searching the shop windows.

Still, as the grade went up, the types diversified.

I looked through the other items and found something useful.

[Air Candy (D)]

– You can apnea for 30 minutes if you eat it.

[Mermaid’s Air Bubble (D)]

– Covers the air bubble containing the mermaid’s breath.

-Able to breathe underwater for 1 hour.

-Air bubbles may burst when subjected to strong shock or exposure to heat.

[Parasitic gills (C)]

– Parasites that act as gills.

-Can breathe underwater.

– Periodically loses health and magic.

about three.

The mermaid’s air bubbles pass.

I can’t use it if it’s weak to shock and heat. Because my main focus is explosions.

Above all, it is disposable. Not only when entering, but also when exiting.

That said, you should buy at least two.

“The parasitic gills are better, but it’s a C-class, so the price is a bit high.”

If you overdo it, you can live, but it took a while that your stamina and magic power were cut.

All that remains is air candy. About 1500 points each.

It’s expensive for a one-time use, but it’s not bad when it comes to usefulness.

You can buy two, so you can use them when you clear the ruins and come out.

I’m worried.

Both aren’t bad options.

“Or would you like some help?”

Having trouble deciding, I came up with a new option.

Both have limitations in their use in the end.

You can’t carry parasites forever, and even if you try to keep them, living things can’t enter the treasure bag.

In the past, I tried to target a monster to see if I could put Deokchun, but it was impossible.

“Lee Jun-seok, I heard in the past that you could apply.”

He said he could even give you A-level equipment.

I don’t know if it’s true, but it’s very likely true.

The reaction to the recent incident on the 10th floor was unusual.

I opened a community and found Lee Jun-seok’s activities.

[Lee Jun-seok]: As expected, Petit Gongdu and Hair Loss Man! Fucking Eclipse and Polyseong at once!

[Lee Jun-seok]: NPCs have never directly sanctioned climbers. This is an event worth recording!

[Lee Jun-seok]: It’s a pity that the arena event was blocked, but other large guilds will be more cautious with this.

[Lee Jun-seok]: The 10th floor is also very helpful ^^ It is very helpful.

I don’t like large guilds too much, but I hate this guy to the point of hatred.

It seems to have a purpose to express it as malice.

What do you want? I can not know.

He also sent me a private message in the middle, but I was busy so I couldn’t check it.

“This is true. It’s embarrassing to see you only contact me when you need it.”

I looked at the personal messages that had accumulated over the years.

okay. Does Yeomchi feed you? You should get help if you can.

On the contrary, since there is something to be gained, if Lee Jun-seok asks for help, he will help.

As long as it doesn’t harm me.

Just that much. That’s the distance between Lee Jun-seok and me.

“Then let’s send a message.”

The cost of sending a private message is 500 points.

can be sent twice.

I have to save money to buy 2 air candies in case I can’t get help.

In other words, you have to get support in two conversations.

To do that, you need to know a lot about Lee Jun-seok.

I traced his interest and wrote down a message.

“Looks like it will.”

I was confident that I could get enough positive results.
