Stuck in The Tower

Episode 734: Conversation

Balkan tilts his head as he sees me approaching.

While fighting Sexy Guy, he lost all his armor and weapons, but he didn’t seem to care.

Instead, he was looking at me with curious eyes.

“Are you a fragment of chaos?”

“no.”

“Uhm. I said it wrong. Are you the seed of this generation?”

It’s a seed.

Words are meaningful.

To my ears.

“It’s as if you think I’m going to become a piece of chaos.”

“Based on what I can already feel, it is indeed a fragment of chaos.”

That’s right.

The Shard of Chaos said that directly.

I also vaguely felt it.

The first thing I gained after entering the tower.

Eyes watching the stars.

A quest that started with obtaining that power.

One that doesn’t even have the name of the quest written down.

[???-Hidden Quest]

-Climb the tower.

They gave me infinite coins, but there was a slight malice and intention behind them.

Because it is structured to force you to climb the tower.

Little by little, they imposed restrictions on me and blatantly revealed their hidden intentions.

[???-Hidden Quest]

-???Quest is created only once after the tower is created.

-Hidden quest performers are subject to restrictions.

– Hidden climber. (No leaking of infinite coin information.)

– Avoid being greedy. (You can become the successor of up to three NPCs.)

-You have access to unknown secrets.

I can’t share information about myself, and there is a limit to the number of successors.

Even when revealing information about infinite coins, a huge penalty was imposed on the listener.

-Transcendant!

-You have the potential to become something beyond your limits!

-【Transcendence Conditions】

-1) Entering the 100th floor (incomplete)

-2) Chaos score over 1000 (completed)

-3) Rise in status (completed)

-4) Two or more concepts (1/2)

-5) Tower of Selection (complete)

-6) Recognition of the fragments of chaos (complete)

-7) Selection (incomplete)

Now that he is a transcendental person, he is making conditions.

There was no need to say what the system was talking about.

‘Fragments of chaos.’

Two or more concepts.

Because you can tell just by looking at this.

There were as many as seven conditions, but it was completed once only three conditions were met.

Even going up to the 100th floor is already confirmed.

If I don’t get to the 100th floor, I’ll be trapped in the tower forever, so I have no choice but to go up.

I didn’t tell anyone though.

‘For a system, it seems like it’s interfering too much.’

I thought and thought again.

Aside from fighting, fighting, and surviving, there is nothing the tower can do other than training and community.

There is only one conclusion I have come to.

“Call of the Tower. The will of the tower. “I guess that’s what you’re saying.”

I am neither a wise man nor a person of great intellect.

I just climbed the tower diligently and learned about the ecology and system of this place.

Receive an invitation from the tower.

That’s how people get a chance to become hunters and save the world.

This is an undeniable fact.

Because new opportunities are given to NPCs through successors.

But there was one more hidden intention.

“Because the tower is also looking for those who will become fragments of chaos.”

That is, creating new fragments of chaos.

An entity that is not limited by the system.

A transcendent person who can bring about destruction.

Something that can be created under the will of the Tower.

Wise man John Traylor said:

It is said that the tower is made of chaos and order.

Climbing the damn tower, I had no choice but to find out what it was.

‘The structure and system of the tower where difficulty increases step by step is orderly.’

The principle behind the appearance of the tower in the fragments of chaos and the destroyed world is chaos.

If a conflict occurs during the process, a bug message is generated.

I am the one who created more bugs than any other climber.

I smiled and looked at Vulcan.

A question arises here.

“Did you receive the quest too? “Which one is this?”

Who is in charge of the unidentified quest I received?

If you look at the form alone, the order is correct.

When you look at what you want, it is chaos.

So, who created this quest?

“Hahahaha! “You ask an interesting question!”

What’s so funny is that he laughs out loud.

Is this because I am already a fragment of chaos?

“Questra. “You’re still a climber, so you might not know.”

He holds up his finger.

“How many chaos fragments belong to the tower? There are a lot of them. “There are also forgotten people among them.”

“The forgotten one.”

“Those who have abandoned their own concepts. Or the one who was taken away. “Some people are simply no longer interested in foreign forces and go into hiding.”

It is understandable since they are people who act arbitrarily in the first place.

Weren’t the people I encountered right now diverse?

Mulan Cassen wants to change her past.

Erembatt moved to honor his friend.

Delverton moved Framberg to the tower to keep his bet with the dwarves.

They are the ones who don’t know what they will do or how far they will go.

“We also have something in common.”

“A lot of chaos?”

“Of course, there are things like that.”

Flash.

His eyes become sharp.

“All fragments of chaos inevitably head to their own world. “This is the will of the tower itself.”

I didn’t want to know, but I expected it.

In the end, they are also the ones who headed to the top to save their own world.

Those who lost their way were supposed to return home.

Whether it’s a changed personality or your own personality.

He’s talking.

‘A hidden quest I received. It’s not just one side, it’s what the entire tower wants.’

That is why both chaos and order are cooperating.

These guys are funny.

If you’re going to do it, just do one side.

I don’t know what the mechanism is.

“Did you ask if I had received a quest? You know that’s not true for everyone. “Have you already seen it?”

“It’s the story of Erembat.”

It started out as a spirit being, went through a disaster, and became a fragment of chaos.

Did Erembatt receive the quest?

In the past, I shared the view of this guy climbing the tower.

Let’s just talk about the results.

‘You didn’t receive the same quest as me.’

In the first place, the invitation was made to attribute a naturally occurring disaster to the tower.

“The process is not important. “What matters is that you are already walking towards this direction.”

“You talk a lot there.”

“Because I don’t have many conversations with people who have maintained their personalities. “Most people become eccentric.”

Does this guy also maintain his personality?

Just looking at that part, it was expected that he would be a good match for Mulan Cassen.

‘I don’t know. I may be able to maintain my sanity thanks to the concept of challenge.’

Since I am a guy who can communicate relatively well, I am continuing the conversation for a while.

Thanks to you, I got a lot of information.

Some of the doubts I had so far have been resolved.

At the same time, I was able to take my time.

Time for the other survivors to flee and Ophelia to join them.

Vulcan also didn’t seem to know what my goal was, but he didn’t seem to care much.

Rather, it feels good to meet me.

Maybe that’s why.

[Mulang Cassen signs the contract.]

[Blinks his eyes at his friend.]

[Numerous fragments of chaos are showing interest in you!]

[There is a being casting a particularly persistent gaze.]

-Uuuuuung !

I feel a dense energy.

The attention sent by none other than the fragments of chaos.

Is that alone enough to create this phenomenon?

[A friend with the title Chaos Fragment is created!]

Isn’t it because of the new title?

It looks like they succeeded in turning Elini into an NPC.

Mulan Cassen will be good to you from now on.

That’s a good thing, though.

‘I think there’s one guy who’s really interested in me.’

I need to be a little careful with that one.

There aren’t many sane guys.

-Trudge.

Vulcan is coming forward.

The momentum has changed.

“okay. He asked me to talk and I listened. Is it done now?”

“…You’re needlessly kind.”

“Let’s say we’re having a welcome ceremony in advance. “We are going to be peers.”

-Save the country!

The guy’s momentum explodes.

“Then let’s begin.”

The guy who smiles from ear to ear and spreads his arms.

My eyes turned.

A cruel energy that comes with madness.

Is that the power he wields?

Now, I can figure out my tendencies just by looking at my energy.

“I said it wasn’t a challenge. That’s right. “This is it.”

-Shoo!

The guy who disappeared from his spot as if blinking appears right in front of my nose.

At the same time, a fist approaches the face.

-Baaaaagh!

“A kind of education. “This is instruction for a student who will become my junior!”

I was blown away by the impact, rolled on the floor, and then took a stance.

My fists are spicy.

It felt like my nosebleed had burst, but it went away quickly if I left it alone.

‘It’s worth it.’

I don’t know how much force he exerted when he hit.

Then it’s good for me.

And me too.

-Quaaaaaang!

“I didn’t step forward without thinking.”

A sword extended straight ahead.

Vulcan’s feet move.

A walking technique that continues smoothly like water.

From bottom to top.

At the moment the guy’s fist comes up.

-Boo!

“Ha! Feel so good!”

He lifted his chin up with a knee kick.

Even though his head was thrown back like a ping-pong ball, he was still smiling.

He was clearly a guy who maintained his personality, but to be like this.

“He was crazy to begin with.”

“How can we reach a certain level without falling short in one field?”

The neck muscles are so strong that even though I kicked the head with the intention of blowing it off, it was fine.

If your old man is going to go crazy, why not go crazy in a nice way and have a dirty temper?

His dark-stained eyes stare at me.

-Whoa!

A world that is momentarily dark.

With him, his voice is heard from all directions.

“Run as much as you want. “You will prepare the stage for me.”

Slurp.

The darkness that was like fog was simultaneously shaped into all kinds of strange and evil shapes.

past present future.

Fear mixed with the worst possibilities and imaginative possibilities of going somewhere.

It was an attack that penetrated into the realm of the unconscious, like a nightmare that comes when you are most defenseless.

[Mental Protection (SSS) Lv.MAX]

It has no meaning, at least to me.

In the mental field, I am close to immunity.

It might not work if there is not enough chaos, but it doesn’t work if it’s at the same level.

The reason why I can attack him.

together.

“You coach and I beat. “Good.”

Didn’t he say it himself?

He said he was guiding his juniors.

I didn’t say I was taking on the challenge either.

The challenge does not work.

Just a play on words. It was no different from half-claiming.

-Suddenly.

-Quaaaang!

I say I will accept it that way, but what are you going to do?

This guy’s chaos is bound to be interpreted in the direction he wants.

He suddenly grabbed me by the collar and pinned me to the ground.

He stabbed the sword straight into his throat.

– Crackling.

Vulcan grabbed the sword with his bare hands.

A guy smiling, showing his teeth turning red with blood.

“indeed. “Is this your concept?”

“…What do you mean?”

“okay. “At this level, I am beyond the level of guidance.”

What concept do I have?

I know from the quest information that I already have a concept.

But that reaction.

‘Are you saying I’m even using that?’

Or is it just a matter of noticing the concept?

I applied even more force to the sword, but the guy just grabbed the sword as if nothing had happened.

“Answer me!”

“Hehe. Hahaha!”

The guy who laughed out loud stands tall.

I stopped laughing.

“I will challenge my junior.”

The damn thing established a challenge by issuing a challenge to me.
