Chapter 392 A moment of silence
arose when the world tree suddenly broke into the conference room and was told to get rid of the world tree at all costs.
What is the World Forest? Aren’t they sacred beings who risk their lives to protect them? Apart from its symbolic meaning, it became a place of life and at the same time actually served as the root of a tribe.
In other words…
“What does that mean!”
“You mean you can’t help being human? How could you think of such a thing!”
“If we get rid of the world tree, where will we live and will we become the idiots who killed our mother!”
It meant that they would never take it easy.
know. Know. Sometimes there is something blindly beyond reason, and there are times when we make judgments that go against rationality.
family, friends, lovers, etc. I’ve seen you prioritize others over yourself.
I don’t think it’s right or wrong. Because I think it could be either way.
For them, it is now.
Unfortunately, I am not a resident of this world. I just want to somehow end up in a good way for each other.
Whoa. He took a small breath, put his hand on the desk, and leaned forward.
“I will say it again. You must have received a message from the tower. I would have given you a choice. Should I stay here or go to the tower? Whether or not I will become an NPC that everyone knows about.”
He pointed at the hollow ceiling.
The extinction index that is still in place. It didn’t increase, but it didn’t decrease either.
I don’t know how much longer it will be, but I don’t think it will take a lot of time.
“I don’t know what that damn extinction index is, but when it reaches 100 points, it’s certain that it will be treated as extinction, and no one knows what will happen after that. Nothing could happen and the whole world could blow up.”
I don’t know exactly either. I’m just guessing.
There is also a bit of exaggeration mixed in. Although there is an index of extinction, it is only at the standard of the tower. Not an objective criterion.
Of course, the standard of the tower may be the most objective, but…
‘The tower does not dispose of it.’
achievements in the face of challenges. Even if they give rewards accordingly, they do not kill the challenger for failure.
You may be wondering what this is all about. People who died while climbing are overflowing.
To be precise, this is it.
It means risking your life for the cost of taking on a challenge. You don’t necessarily die if you fail in a challenge.
If the tower was a dichotomous place with only life and death options in the first place, no one could go up to the top.
It’s incomprehensible and hard to guess, but the tower also has its own rules and standards.
‘There are people who don’t deserve to be NPCs, and there are people who have never entered the tower at all.’
In this situation, the tower explodes the world? It’s questionable whether it can be done, but I have faith that the tower I’ve been through so far won’t do that.
Maybe it was the thought that came to mind because I saw the will of the tower while facing the reality.
Predictably, even if the extinction index exceeds 100 points, the world will not explode.
It’s not without reason at all.
‘The extinction index also had a lower score.’
Although it was very brief, the score decreased and then increased again.
Wouldn’t that mean that it could go over 100 points and then decrease again?
But no matter what, the world tree must be destroyed. At this rate, it would be annihilation.
“Let’s be honest. Have you ever thought about getting on top of everyone? Do people outside know about that?”
asked openly. Several scenes seen in the transmission waiting room. Among them, there were survivors talking.
you have to climb to the top It’s the only way to survive. Several stories have passed.
In that case, you have to abandon the world tree and all the people who will remain, but dying is the same even if you stay still.
Even if you don’t go up right away and hold on, you can sense it.
“Hmm. It is right for those who live to live.”
“We haven’t given up hope yet. There must be a way.”
It sounds comfortable. I’ve been looking for a way, but it looks like it’s over.
“The World Forest is the realm of the World Tree. You should know better that the world tree is the cause of the rapid progress of demon hardening and the rampage of creatures. It is also because the spirit has left you.”
The world tree takes root throughout the realm. It is obvious that he drank the blood of people who died in the forest.
The elemental also severed ties with the elves and druids due to continued mental anguish.
look Even when we first met, spirits were playing next to Medi, but now no one is there.
Chapter II. This is the meaning of the generation that has lost its spirit.
The truth is always harsh. One red-faced elf screamed.
“okay! know! I know! What’s the difference if you know speak openly we’re trapped can’t go outside I can’t even go to the center because of the demonized forest!”
“The druids have a chance, but most of them were defeated because they were in the western forest. There are only a few people left.”
I thought so. I’m not even an idiot, I don’t know if they are.
Even though I know how to do it, I can’t do it and I don’t want to do it, so it’s like this.
That’s what I said.
“We will go.”
Me and the members move directly.
They are not affected by the forest and have no sense of mission to protect the World Tree.
one more there.
Before moving to the 76th floor, there was something I saw through the authority.
– The snow spirit gradually becomes berserk.
– The snow spirit struggles to protect itself.
There is a possibility that the number of worlds has not reached its full extent yet.
What I really want to do is not completely destroy the World Tree.
“Do you know how the World Tree is reborn?”
“what?”
“Has anyone seen a time when the world tree was a seedling when it was a seed? No, you only know that the world tree is an eye spirit, have you ever seen it yourself?”
Elves and druids frowned at my question.
Because it wasn’t something outsiders would say. They are a race called the children of the snow spirit, but they have pride.
“The World Tree has existed since the beginning of time. I heard that there are people who meet snow spirits sometimes.”
“You don’t know, but it has some symbolic meaning. Just like Elves wear garlands and get married. As the world collapsed, historical records were also lost, but as much as we have lived a long life…” “
No. It’s not a symbol or a legend. It’s real.”
I stopped the person who made excuses.
Ironically, there are some things I know better than those who have protected the World Tree for a long time.
“No one else knows, but I know. How to get rid of the World Tree and be reborn.”
Because I’ve already done it.
World Tree Quest. Snow Spirit Queen Hainu. I remember meeting her.
The corolla I had right now was also obtained at that time.
“All you. I had a corolla.”
“Yes, this is an item I received directly from the Snow Spirit Queen.”
“Is that true?”
“Isn’t that a lie!”
There were some who shouted that they couldn’t believe it, but Medi, the elder of the elves who received the crown himself, would know.
That the corolla I handed over is not an ordinary corolla.
“Even if those who leave leave, shouldn’t there be hope for those who remain?”
After that, I closed my mouth.
“…really can you do it?”
Pargal, the elder of the druids, who had been silent, opened his mouth.
The leader of the few remaining druids. One of the few strong players who can actually operate in the World Forest.
“You are right. We were given a choice.”
[Pargal shares a message.]
[You can be an NPC.]
[Enough achievements!]
[You can enter the safe zone.]
I thought it would be strong. Because he is an elder, and he is also the one who created the first twisted creature.
Having accumulated enough achievements to enter the safe zone means that you have also achieved considerable results within the Tower.
Even if you think about those who were in the safe zone.
“I think I am also responsible for the forest becoming like this. I don’t say it, but don’t you think so too?”
The elves shut their mouths at his words.
You may feel justified when you need it, but when things go wrong, you want to blame others.
Even so, the reason I didn’t say it was because I knew shame.
Maybe it was because it would be difficult to survive here without the help of the druids.
I don’t know what’s going on I’m not interested.
Pargal stares at me.
“You only get help in many ways. go go The druids will help you.”
He declared that he would help me.
Those who watch for a while.
“I will go too. As an elder, you have an obligation to take responsibility for everyone.”
Maddie also raised her hand. It would not have been an easy decision, but he showed a firm will.
Are there any other applicants? I waited a little longer, but I just averted my gaze.
I have no idea what to say. The choice is yours, and in fact, if you don’t reach a certain level, it won’t help you at all.
“Everyone, please take care of the rest. Because that is also important.”
not even nice Medi confirms their role so that others are not ashamed.
I looked up at the sky.
[Destruction Index – 98/100]
In the meantime, the score went up even more.
dark sky. Only the hologram shines clearly.
“I’ll see if there are more applicants. We leave in the morning. There is no time.”
“I’m going to collect druids too.”
Medi and Pargal left the meeting room.
* * *
The dawn is coming.
Outside the survivor camp. People gathered to head for the World Tree.
Surprisingly, there seemed to be a few applicants, but since it was made up of people who could survive in the demonized forest, there weren’t many people.
There are only 12 of us including me and the members.
It was impossible to carry all the power, someone had to remain here to face the threat. If a creature attacks in the middle, you have to be able to defend it.
‘Fika and Miffy are also going together.’
Two skills are enough to withstand the effects of the forest.
Me and 4 members. Four elders and two elves. 3 Druid Warriors and 1 Elf Ranger.
“Although the forest has changed a lot, I can do enough guidance.”
“The further you go to the center, the more creatures and monsters there will be. It seemed like they were gathering in one place to protect the World Tree.”
The preparations are complete.
“Let’s go.”
“I take the lead.”
went into the woods
People in the evacuation camp stick out their heads and look at us.
Some prayed toward the world tree they had abandoned or abandoned, and others waved handkerchiefs to wish them well.
-Paaah!
kicked the foot
From now on, it is a full-fledged horse racing area. The elves began to show signs of discomfort and faintly heard the cries of creatures around them.
“Pargal still can’t communicate with creatures and monsters?”
“I can’t.”
I wanted to ask, but anyway.
The two races were completely cut off from the spirits.
chewed his lips There are plans, but there is no guarantee that they will be possible. It’s just a matter of grabbing a chance and moving on.
What I believe
[Title Spirit’s friend is shining.]
With the title.
Only two things I bought from the Dimension Shop Mileage Shop.
I quietly opened my inventory and checked the mileage products.
