Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 56 Gained

Rilka’s tail wags.

elated expression. Are you sure you want to bet to win?

Or are you sure?

“Which bet?”

If you can get that sword, it’s worth the risk.

If you do it well, it’s something that can even surpass the A-class.

‘I said it was incomplete. What if I complete it?’

A weapon with high potential and potential for future upgrades.

Since it even reacted to the luck stat, it is certain that it is an unusual item.

Kildereth also raised his eyebrows and raised his eyebrows, as if he knew something.

“Rilka, are you thinking of betting that? It’s true that he’s funny, but he might be too sentimental. It’s only the 10th floor.”

“know. But I also have something I covet.”

Rilka stares at me with her eyes shining.

“I will lend you this sword. Of course, I have no intention of giving it away. If I go upstairs with it, isn’t it my loss?”

I nodded meekly.

as she said Maybe I’ve never been scammed in this way.

It’s been a long time since Rilka gave a quest on the 10th floor.

There was a good chance that he lent the item out of exhaustion or with some possibility.

“I’ll have to keep your frog as collateral.”

“To the ark?”

“uh? Deokchun!”

As soon as she finished her words, Deokchun, hidden inside the breastplate, was in her hand.

when did you take it? I couldn’t even see it moving.

Deokchun was embarrassed that he didn’t feel anything either.

I’ve experienced it before, but I couldn’t even predict what method was used.

skill? or might? Or are your physical abilities ridiculously fast?

The tension stiffened the back of his neck.

“Ugh. That hand habit is still the same.”

“It’s a habit. Didn’t you steal it? Collateral is collateral.”

Unlike me who is wary, the two are calm.

Rilka snorted at Kildereth’s words as she shook her head.

Rilka, who managed to cross her small legs, rested her chin.

“The rental period is one week. If you bring the scales of the fire dragon into it, you win. I’ll give you a sword. But if the period is exceeded or if you run away…”

– Rubbing

“Ehehehehe. This frog is mine. I’ve decided on a name How is Manju! I love how soft it is.”

“That ark!”

With a half-undressed face, Deokchun is joking around.

I think it tasted a bit off.

Frightened, Deokchun hit Rilka’s head with the palm of his hand, but there was no damage at all.

Even if I get hit by one, my head will turn, but to Rilka, it seems to feel like a complaint.

I’ve been aiming for Deokchun since the first time I saw him, and is it the same this time?

I let out a small sigh.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t make such a bet without Deokchun’s consent. He may be called a pet, but he is more like a colleague.”

“Dog dog goosebumps!”

Deokchun looks up with moist eyes as if he was moved.

In fact, I was saying this because Deokchun would go berserk if I accepted the bet on my own.

It’s true to some extent, though. About 70 percent?

Hmmm. anyway.

“Do you believe me, Deokchun?”

I asked permission from Deokchun, who was held as collateral.

Deokchun, who rubbed his chin for a while and pondered.

“To the ark.”

He clenched his fists with a stern expression.

okay. With this, the bet is established.

Lilka and her gaze exchanged. The will to win each other’s bet was firm.

A bit of nerve warfare. Kildares, who had been waiting for that, let out a laugh.

“Kkeuk! These guys are really fun. Like you, Chaos Frog. It’s the first time I’ve seen a frog form.”

Kildares, who wiped his face, looked at me and Deokchun in turn, then took something out of his bosom.

That’s a skill book.

“Thanks to the spectacle. take it you will need The bet must be fair.”

[Slaughter (C)]

-Slaughter the monster.

-By-products of slaughtered monsters are recognized as items.

“If you just pluck the scales, it’s useless if it’s not an item.”

“Eh? what. Didn’t you have any slaughter skills?”

“I keep telling you, but Rilka is only on the 10th floor. It’s time to lay down the basics. Didn’t that crumb just now not get recognized as an item?”

“Okay. It is.”

Rilka inflated her cheeks after being scolded by Killerless.

As the innkeeper said, they seem to know each other well.

I am not interested in their relationship.

“Thank you Kildereth.”

I learned the skill right away.

For some reason, it is Kilderless who helps a lot.

Why Just curious? Or is there something else?

Maybe it’s because I was worried about the last accident.

“Go if you are ready. Even if you stay still, time passes. There’s not much left until the arena event, so you’d better hurry.”

[Time remaining until the arena event – 16:24]

Time has passed already.

As Kildereth said. You have to move fast.

“Come on, take it. start betting well done wow! It’s okay to come late, no, just don’t come!”

Rilka held out her sword and shouted as if she had forgotten her quest.

He is holding Deokchun in his arms. Deokchun also flicked his hand, saying, “Let’s go quickly.”

“You said it was a week, right?”

Accepting the sword, I raised the corner of my mouth.

The preparations are over. Everything went well and the bet with her.

“One day is enough.”

I have no choice but to win.

* * *

Only 6 hours.

This is the time it took to quickly break through the 11th and 12th floors.

A field that has already been experienced once. Even the monsters inhabiting it were grasped.

Even with the newly acquired Frost Flame Sword, nothing could stop me.

[The portal opens.]

A portal created in front of you.

I checked the condition.

No injuries. The equipment is new, so it is doing its job properly.

furthermore.

[Fire Resistance (E) Lv.3]

Thanks to the fire resistance that is rapidly leveling up, he has well-preserved physical strength.

The theme of the 10th floor was adapting to the heat wave.

It is growing as intended.

“We have about 10 hours left.”

At first glance, that seems like a long time.

If you overdo it, you could even try the 13th floor twice.

Of course, I have no intention of doing such a thing.

“It gets done right the first time.”

The monster I have to deal with is a 5-star monster.

There is no answer to blindly running in hopes of a good luck.

At the moment of certainty, you have to aim for the moment when he is most careless to increase your chances even a little.

‘I don’t know how faint I’ll be when I die and then resurrect.’

6 hours long. Even if I was lucky enough to wake up early, it was clear that I would lose a few hours.

Because I was shocked to death.

Even if he was resurrected, he needed some time to calm down.

“It means we have to see the match in roughly four hours.”

I added strength to the hand holding the sword.

I can only hope that Hwagapryong will quickly reveal its loopholes.

-Uuuuuuu

I didn’t miss the tension and entered the portal.

A vivid sense of being alive.

I prepared and waited so that I could react at any time.

[13th floor]

13th floor. passed through the volcanic region.

The field is still hot.

The Hwagapryong, boasting a huge body and going wild, caught my eye.

First of all, I lowered my stance and got out of his sight.

Now is the time for patience.

‘It periodically drinks lava.’

I don’t know if he’s drinking because he’s thirsty or if he’s drinking to use his breath.

What I’m aiming for is that timing.

The beginning is the same, but the end will be different.

3 hours like that.

Enduring the heat, I chased after him.

“Kurrrrrrr.”

The desired timing has arrived.

A guy who leans his head into lava while supporting himself on his strong hind legs.

I ran forward.

It is now.

[Brooch of Boiling Power (B)]

[Buff Dice (C) Lv.4]

[Shockwave]

buffs were applied.

Improved physical abilities due to doubled stats.

In addition, the shockwave effect.

-Paaang!

As soon as I stepped on it, a shockwave exploded and accelerated.

“Kurrrrr!”

Was it because he ran away? The guy raised his head and waggled his tail.

An attack that shatters the ground.

Its tail is so huge that it looks like a bus is flying.

Although it can be easily avoided by using fog dash.

“Not now!”

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.6]

-Quaaaaaang!

It jumped and exploded as if performing a stunt.

A body blown up by an explosion.

His tail passes under his legs.

one more time here.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.6]

“Big!”

His back exploded and he turned toward him.

I immediately activated the weight bracelet.

Weight increases as horsepower drains.

– Kwaaaaang!

I landed on the ground and ran forward.

I was saving weight bracelets for this one.

I ignored the pain running up my leg.

Even if it’s broken, don’t stop now.

“Haaaaaagh!”

The fire dragon roared. second pattern.

it’s a foot cloud

The only thing a guy who can’t use his breath due to system limitations can do is hand-to-hand combat.

-bang! bang! bang! bang!

-Quarrrrr!

just as expected. He started stamping his feet like crazy.

If it crashes even once, it’s game over.

Cannot fight even if hit by shrapnel. or fatal blow.

I can never avoid it with my pure skills alone.

therefore.

[The one who calls the night – title]

[The artificial night is coming.]

We need to increase our strength.

-Suaaaaa!

Darkness came in an instant.

In a world where only hot lava dyes the world red, I swung my sword.

[Title effect!]

[Stats increase when active at night!]

-Qua gaga!

– Wow!

The sword extended at such a speed that I couldn’t even see it properly.

The stones that flew towards me turned into powder and crumbled.

– Damn it!

The coldness of the Frostfire Sword began to freeze the space.

rush again.

– Kwajik!

I spurred through the frosted ground and passed between his legs.

I kept thinking.

How can I deal with him?

Where should I attack to tear off the scales?

I even thought about staring at his anus while he was drinking.

At least I thought that the durability would be weak there.

‘It’s impossible because of the tail.’

That thought was abandoned. In the first place, his scales are so strong that fire and night cannot pass through them.

Haven’t you already attacked the area around his ankle joint?

It doesn’t have any particularly weak scales.

Then, there is one place to aim for.

“Reverse.”

only one in the middle of the neck. Scales that grew upside down.

You have to aim for the only spot protruding from the smooth body.

“Kurrrrrr!”

I met the eyes of a guy full of life.

A heart-rending struggle.

Even the hamstrings were numb in front of the absolute strong.

[Summons the optector.]

“Cover your eyes!”

– Kiki Kiki Kiki!

The optector summoned by the title’s special effect covered his face.

The firearm dragon tried to shake it off with its short arm, but the optector had a dark attribute. can’t shake it off

It won’t do any damage, but that’s enough.

What I need is a little break.

-Kooung!

He kicked off the ground and took off.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.6]

[Fast Run (B) Lv.2]

[Skill level up!]

[Fog Run (B) Lv.3]

Accelerate with Fire Bomb.

Fog run that was activated as it is.

Increased fog time by leveling up.

-Suaaaagh!

It was an extremely short moment, less than one second, but my concentration reached its peak.

‘It touches.’

I was able to get close to the anger of the firearmed dragon shaking its head to shake off the optector.

[The Fog ends.]

The entity returned after the Fog was lifted.

speed did not decrease.

Following the inertia at the same speed as it flew, I slashed the frost flame sword.

The muscles of the whole body pulled tight.

A blow that burns mana.

A stab that became a single point!

-The

sword touched Kuduk’s body.

Scales turned upside down.

exposed gaps.

The tip of the sword dug right in between them.

-Pud de deudeuk!

He opened the space with his sword.

This is the start.

I bit my lip and stuck my hand through the gap.

“Haha!”

The hand touched by the blade was torn.

My hands were accustomed to the body temperature of the firearm that swallowed lava.

Nonetheless I

[Buff- Shockwave]

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.6]

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.6]

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.6]

-Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Squeeze out mana and put momentum into it.

Have your fingers been cut off? Or is it because of the burn?

I have no feeling in my hands. Only terrible pains run down my spine and pierce my brain.

Against my will, my body convulses.

It was an act no different from torture, but I did not stop.

Anything more.

Even one centimeter deep.

I shoved my hand into it with an obsession close to obsession.

“Take the scales well, son.”

[Repay (A) Lv.1]

[Slaughter (C) Lv.1]

-Ggggggg -Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

!

It exploded from within.

It feels like the mana in your body is draining at once.

-Quaaaaaang!

A formidable shock swept through his body.

At this time, the fire resistance buffed body also lost its meaning.

– Beep!

Deaf from binge drinking, blind from flash.

Only the tinnitus ringing in my head tells me that the explosion is continuing.

He hugged the disappearing body from the tips of his fingers and bit the scales with his teeth.

why do i suffer like this

never go back alone

If I don’t have hands, I’m thinking of biting the scales with my mouth.

-Passssss.

I can’t even feel the pain as if all of my cells have been burned.

A different feeling of floating compared to when I misted it.

Soon, his body turned to powder and his consciousness went out.

[Rilka’s Request-Compulsory Quest (1)]

-Viper Skin (64/50)

-Flower Dragon’s Scales (1/1)

[Quest conditions have been met!]

[Go find Rilka!]

I felt that I had succeeded.

so i died
