224. 20th floor (2)
“You have entered the waiting room on the 20th floor.”
“The system is expanded.”
“The district-level community, which had been separated, is integrated into a dimension-integrated community.” “
The team members assigned in the integration ordeal are now It does not discriminate against challengers belonging to other dimensions.”
“The settlement rankings of the district level, which were separated separately, are also integrated.” “
Now you can also view the settlement rankings of other dimensions.”
20th Floor.
This newly reached class meant a lot to me.
It is also true that it is a layer that can fulfill the long-cherished wish, which can be said to be an exclusive ordeal for the contract manager… From
now on, it was important that all systems were greatly expanded and had the same area as another formal climbing dimension. .
‘…Until now, I had only been told that this would happen to the Iron-Blooded Lord.’
I was experiencing the information I knew when I climbed the tower without knowing anything.
At that time, all of my abilities were only double digits, and I didn’t even know that divinity existed.
That’s because I was inexperienced at that time.
As time passed, he became aware of his talents, learned numerous skills, and established his divinity to reach this position.
“…”
A small smile forms on his lips like dew when he recalls the past.
It was because I realized that I had walked so many ways that I could not go back now.
But that was only for a moment.
Suddenly, the sound I heard from the previous floor resonated in my head as if it were a flashback.
─Huh. yes now i’m funny But feel it. you are the same as me
──If there is no desire, the power to live will disappear.
—In the future that will come before long, will you be able to laugh at me?
It was the last note left by Dam Seon-muk, the final boss of the 18th floor < Blood Ceremony > quest.
He wasn’t an enemy that could be defeated as hard as I thought, but…
nevertheless, the words he said did not disappear as if tickling my heart for some reason.
But I shook my head away from the thought of deepening.
“It is a useless idea.”
He reigned as one of the absolute strongest within the Moorim dimension.
So, you may have come to know boredom, but I am not in an environment where I can be so conceited.
It’s not enough that numerous deities are targeting me, so the most monstrous one among the ancient deities is looking for an opportunity.
I patted him on the cheek lightly and dismissed my thoughts at once.
‘I don’t have time to think like this.’
That would be the case too…
「The manager ‘Iron-Blooded Lord’ is looking at you.」
「The manager ‘Baekhak Geomseon’ is looking at you.」
It’s because the administrators’ eyes got stronger as they reached the 20th floor.
Now that the managers have met the minimum qualifications to make their wishes come true, they must be doing this.
However, he had no intention of fulfilling the managers’ long-cherished wishes.
Because I need to develop a little more strength now.
So…
‘It’s not too late to talk to the managers after the 20th floor ordeal is over.’
Now was the time to prepare to move forward.
***
First of all, I checked the reward for clearing the 19th floor < Blood Ceremony > quest.
The defeated successor of the Blood Demon Cult had nothing else to say, so he didn’t invite him to the manager’s realm.
Thanks to that, I was able to get the quest clear reward right away without wasting time.
「The special power ‘Ghost Magic’ is activated.]
「All energy is converted to a state of being blocked.」
The first reward received, the Ghost Spirit Art, was simply an authority that completely concealed power.
“Are you hiding your presence to the point where you can’t feel all your power?”
Perhaps this is a divinity to see that he is barely hiding his power?
In many ways, it seemed like it would be good to bring attention to opponents below a certain level.
Even if it wasn’t so, since all signs of energy had disappeared, it wouldn’t be easy to detect even a godhead.
It was a special power that really suited the word new technology.
“I’m sure I’ll use it later.”
As a result, I was satisfied that I had gained decent strength, and soon checked the remaining reward.
The exclusive privilege E-0001 [Secret Shop] seemed like a good reward.
That would be the case…
A secret shop that can only be accessed with the exclusive authority given by the tower?
Isn’t this amazing without even seeing it?
「Exclusive authority E-0001 [Secret Shop] is activated.」
「The administrator-only secret shop is opened.」
However, there was an unexpected wall.
「※Challenger Seongyun Han’s layer is not suitable for using the shop.」 「
※Accordingly, only [Category: Ability] can be used in the manager-only secret shop.」 「
※Until a certain layer is reached, the manager-only secret shop The qualifications for use are considered insufficient.”
Because it is a secret shop that can be used with exclusive authority, the qualifications for use were deemed insufficient.
At that, I let out a big sigh and smacked my lips.
I never thought there would be restrictions like this.
But that was only for a moment.
「You have entered the manager-only secret shop [category: Ability].」
▶Strength [1] : 10000P
▶Strength [1] : 10000P
▶Agility [1] : 10000P
▶Magic [1] : 10000P
▶Endurance [1] : 10000P
Looking at the system window that soon popped into my field of vision, my eyes lit up.
“…Still, the name of the secret shop is definitely worth it.”
The manager-only shop was selling stats that could not be bought at regular shops.
Of course, the price is more expensive than expected…
Even if it’s not, the point is overflowing in hand.
In the first place, it is better to obtain skills or items directly while climbing the tower, so I do not purchase them at the store.
‘There’s no reason not to buy ability values.’
There was no hesitation because it was an opportunity to use a lot of unnecessary points.
“[50000] points have been paid to the manager-only secret shop.”
“Strength has increased by 5.”
“[50000] points have been paid to the manager-only secret shop
… ” .」
「Put [50000] points in the manager-only secret shop…」
「Agility is 5 prizes…」
Strength · Stamina · Agility · Magical · Endurance.
I bought all the stats that can be bought at the manager-only secret shop.
A total of 250,000 points were spent, but considering the strength of the body, it was not a waste.
It’s about to be fun at this point.
Having thoroughly checked all the rewards, I smiled lightly.
‘Now if I raise the level of divinity, I’ll be able to deal with divinity before long.’
I’m guessing, within a few floors, wouldn’t it be possible to have the ability to repel one godhead?
Of course, it would be possible to use all the abilities, but even so, the thought that I would be able to defeat the godhead increased my anticipation.
“I’ll have some fun later.”
After muttering that, I immediately turned off the manager-only secret shop.
‘The last thing to do is look at the system extensions.’
Now that all rewards have been checked, it is time to look at the newly expanded system.
***
Suddenly, as I entered the waiting room on the 20th floor, these system expansion messages came to my mind.
‘I said that all the dimensions in the tower are a unified community…’
Then the system said that the community itself was now fused with other dimensions as well.
This means that communication with other dimensions is also possible
.
It was worth it.
‘Since all challengers have reached the 20th floor, there will be no low-level conversation like before.’
The challengers of the other world that I have seen so far have one thing certain about their skills, even if their mouths look the same.
Even as I climbed the tower, I ran into a few thoughtful challengers.
Then, from now on, there will be a possibility that you will be able to access high-level information from the community.
In response, I browsed the community nervously.
‘What conversations are going on in a community where all dimensions are integrated?’
And…
「You have entered the formal climbing dimension community.」
「Difficulty – Hard」
「20th floor community [Channel: C-1721] (4187/5000)
」 It’s a dimensional community. It’s this guy and that guy and it’s just worms that haven’t fallen off. Why are there so many filthy Murim people?
-Three Jaegeombeop to become the strongest in the midfield (Moorim): Are you a bug? oh oh oh oh oh oh oh lol? Isn’t the life of the 8901st in the settlement ranking a filth like a bug?
-Scheduled to become the 71st Aura Sword Master (Ares): …heh. The final rankings were just unlucky. The rankings of accounts are all errors due to trial and error. Bugs.
-Three-talented swordsmanship to become the strongest in the midfield (Moorim): Yes~ Even then, you are a scumbag bug under me~.
-Scheduled for 71st Aura Sword Master (Ares): …befitting a challenger belonging to an uncivilized dimension, he gives a lot of hints that he has not learned. it looks dirty Block all your chats.
-Three Jaegeombeop to be the strongest in the midfield (Moorim): He added a bad excuse with the fact that he jumped out of fear.
-The Volcanic Life of Eating Raw (Moorim): Oh fuck, these aurora worms are fucking shit again. What are idiots who don’t even know what geomitis is talking about?
– Up to the strongest midfielder with the three-jaed sword method (Moorim): Recognized~. What about knights? Those who bluff to the brim don’t have any skills.
Raw Volcanic Life (Murim): Let’s just ignore the aura bugs that only live on snouts. By the way, do you know that there has been a change in the first place in the settlement rankings?
-Three Jaegeombeop to become the strongest in the midfield (Moorim): …? Isn’t the ranking of the settlement of accounts occupied by that crazy monster? But what about change?
– Eating raw volcanic life (Moorim): I don’t know too well, but did you say it was at the earth level? A challenger from that dimension stole the first place.
-Three Jaegeombeop to become the strongest in the midfield (Moorim): …Is this crazy? Pacheonwang’s settlement grade is broken? So, isn’t that SSS+ class? crazy really
-Scheduled to be the 71st Aura Sword Master (Ares): Making a fuss. The final ranking is just the level of how well you are gifted with luck. The level of being shaken by something like that is ridiculous.
-Three Jaegeombeop to become the strongest in the midfield (Moorim): …You said you would block this aurora cub, but until now you have been secretly listening to the conversation.
-Scheduled to become the 71st Aura Sword Master (Ares): …No. I was just about to block it. I had never been secretly watching that wormy conversation.
-The life of the volcanic wave that eats raw (Moorim): Haha~ Ah~ Yes~ You must~ Okay, so go away~.
-Scheduled to be the 71st Aura Sword Master (Ares): It’s real! You fucking bastards! Don’t talk like that!
-Even the undead are priests (Qalian): …tsk tsk. These are poor souls. If I died once and came back to life as an undead, I wouldn’t be swept away by emotions. If we meet later, I will kill you and heal you.
Hung.
After reading the contents of the community for a while, I immediately closed the community window.
‘…I just want to pretend I didn’t see this.’
Still, since the challengers reached the 20th floor, I expected them to have constructive conversations with each other.
The reality was not as beautiful as the ideal.
no.
It goes beyond the level of not being beautiful, to the point where you can just call it ugly.
I immediately turned my attention away, feeling my head pounding.
‘…Come to think of it, the settlement rankings were also consolidated by dimension.’
And then, instead of a community that was not constructive, I checked the ranking after a long time.
「20th Floor Ordeal Settlement Board」
-1st place Hunter (SSS+) [Earth]
-2nd place Wave Emperor (SSS) [Woorim]
-3rd place Seir Nagrat (SS+) [Ares]
-4th place Old Gray Knight (SS-) [Ares]
-5th Sword Master (SS-) [Moorim]
-6th Star Spear (SS-) [Moorim]
-7th Meteor Dance (S+) [Moorim]
-8th Undead are priests (S) [ Qalian]
However, even this did not change much.
“It doesn’t change that you’re number one on the 20th floor.”
If I had to find a difference, it was that all of the Earth level challengers had disappeared from the rankings.
It was also notable that most of those who had established themselves as high rankers were from the Moorim dimension.
But that was all.
Realizing that there was nothing to take the time to look at, I turned my attention away from the final rankings.
Instead, as on the previous floor, the quest command was invoked.
「View challenger Han Seong-yoon’s quest.」
It’s nothing else…
‘If you clear one of the previously reserved quests, you’ll be in the waiting room on the 21st floor in no time.’
It is because the desire to go to the common area on the 21st floor, where the god of proof is said to be waiting, has become stronger.
There is also a curiosity that I want to hear more about my future appearance that I have seen in the past…. There
was also something like that because I wanted to complete the authority to increase the reward so that I could become stronger faster while climbing the tower.
There aren’t as many powers that can accelerate growth in the tower as much as the right to increase rewards.
‘I don’t know anything else, but I need to upgrade the right to increase the reward in its entirety.’
But that thought was soon shattered by the ensuing message.
Beep-!
“Since the 20th floor ordeal is not an individual ordeal, it is an integrated ordeal, so it is impossible to replace the ordeal.
”
I frowned at him, but I could understand it to some extent.
Presumably, the Tower is hoping for competition or cooperation with other dimensions.
That way, the candidates you choose will grow quickly.
‘And most of the time, the tower makes a composition that competes with each other.’
In a word, this integration ordeal means that it is a competitive ordeal that cannot be skipped by something like a quest.
“I can’t help it.”
So, I sat down on the waiting room floor and started rummaging through my inventory.
Originally, he would have taken on the 20th floor integration ordeal without hesitation.
This time, he couldn’t show such overwhelming confidence.
It was worth it.
Because currently I can’t use apotheosis.
‘I have to stay in the waiting room at least until the deification cooldown ends.’
And it was decided how to spend that time.
Exactly…
「Island magic technique」
「Rating: S+」
「Attack speed +10%」
「Lightsword Emperor Han Seong-yoon is given a divine < harmony > in the form of a necklace containing power. A holy relic.”
「This is a jewel favored by the lightsaber who can summon and handle a blade made of light by consuming holy power.」 「
Challenger Han Seong-yoon can activate the exclusive effect ‘Blade of Light’ when used.」 「
※ Creates a blade of light that automatically tracks the enemy with divine power, and when it hits, penetrates some of the enemy’s defensive abilities.」 「
Challenger Han Seong-yoon can activate the exclusive effect ‘sacred storage’ when used.」 「
※Current divinity By storing, it is possible to arbitrarily absorb and acquire the divine < Harmony > embedded in the item
