Chapter 165 How to Catch Maglet
A day’s work at a labor camp is tedious and arduous.
It’s physically exhausting, but it’s also a space where people can enjoy it mentally.
Continue digging and carrying rubble.
A series of repeated movements. An ear-piercing metal sound.
A mechanical life that is not enough to say that it is boring.
I can’t even rest properly and I can’t go out. The only way to get some fresh air was to go to interviews, and even sleep was irregular.
How would a person who has spent more than a month in this environment feel?
“shit! shit!”
Why are you getting hot?
Lee Seon-man, who usually has a decent personality, but today, he was passionately picking a pickaxe.
The same goes for other seniors. They’re the only ones with a pickaxe that’s not their weapon.
There are no coins left, so you can’t die easily, but there is no hope.
Good news for me.
It means that I have a strong motivation to act according to my will, and at the same time…
‘I have enough selfishness to not give up easily.’
Some would say it’s stupid.
In a place where there is no possibility of escape, only regrets remain and act indecently.
Rather than spending time doing labor, they might tell you to kill yourself and come out of the tower.
But not in my eyes. Because it proves how desperate it is.
Everyone has different reasons, but there is a goal.
Normally, they had dead expressions, but now they were full of passion.
I feel like I’m going to explode because I can’t breathe.
The reason for the change was simple.
“We must get out of this beggar place!”
Because you planned to escape with me.
At first there were doubts about the escape. A thought that is wet with inertia and does not want to take an adventure.
However, they were also the ones who had climbed to the 39th floor and soon came to their senses.
just one person. Although there were others whose circumstances were different.
“Ah-oh! Aaaaaa!”
A student screaming and kicking the wall over there.
He was captured with us, and he firmly believed that his teammates would rescue him.
“Let me go alone and see.”
During the last interview, he heard the news that his teammates had been wiped out.
He denied it, but said that Meglet kindly held hands and allowed him to look around the field.
His teammates were nowhere to be seen.
Anyway, that Maglet guy isn’t sane either. Do you enjoy seeing others suffer so much?
What thanks to the students joining us too. After hearing the plan, I decided to actively participate.
“Kihehehehe.”
The Devil Gargoyle is still screaming and whipping.
People who would normally avoid them stealthily, but now they are glaring at them with hostile eyes.
The stupid piece of stone seemed unaware of anything.
“Whoa. Are you finished with Evileye?”
“Yes, that is enough.”
“uh? I can’t see Deokchun.”
“I went to play for a while. Is it a bit boring here?”
I raised my thumb at the question of Kim So-dam, who had approached me.
On the first day, I worked in the main lighthouse, and then in other areas.
The range of the slave house was considerable, and there was plenty of space to work.
The relics, the purpose of labor anyway, are not here.
It was Meglet’s ploy to try and make them suffer in as many ways as possible, so it was a natural result.
It worked well for me.
I was able to do the work necessary for the plan.
“It is finally today.”
“It’s only been a few days, but it’s a disgusting place.”
“Thank you all for your help.”
“It was nothing.”
I thanked my teammates.
After all, my teammates didn’t have to help me.
The quest was a personal matter, and the team members in the field would have saved them even if they stayed still.
Of course, there is no such thing as unconditional in the world, so I didn’t know what variables would arise, but if the team members were good enough, they would have obtained the jewels needed to create the portal.
You can tell just by surviving among countless monsters for several days.
“Isn’t that a good thing? Not just us, we can all go up together.”
“What is the slogan of the Pejing Union? Isn’t it love and peace petit gongdu! We have to make sure that as many people as possible can climb the tower, or at least give them a chance.”
Lee Sang-ok and Kim So-dam smile.
They are very nice people.
“I wonder who will be responsible if everyone dies like this.”
It was Oh Ji-hyeok, but he expressed his dissatisfaction with a wrinkled face.
That’s what I say, and I work the hardest.
He seems like an insincere guy.
“Kihehehehe.”
When the work progressed to some extent, the gargoyles brought a meal.
It’s meal time. After that, a group interview is scheduled.
While working, I warmed up my body. Pleasant heat ran through my body, and I was in excellent condition.
“Let’s all eat and eat.”
I called people together. as well as the demons.
At first, people were reluctant to deal with demons, but now the atmosphere has eased up a bit.
It must be because of the bond with those who suffered together.
“I work by eating well.”
I unpacked all the food I had been saving in the treasure bag.
There was also a boxed lunch, and other convenience foods and snacks were also mixed.
“Ohhhh! nice!”
“Does this look delicious?”
People cheering and starting to fill their stomachs.
I also ate a packed lunch.
“Hmm. Let me see you for a second.”
“yes.”
Seonman Lee came to my side.
He shook his head awkwardly and held out his hand.
“Thank you. I wanted to tell you this.”
“You haven’t escaped yet, so what?”
“no. It’s great that you even tried to save us. i believe i will succeed Why are you even doing this?”
Uh… to beat the quest?
To put it bluntly, let’s look around in moderation.
“Petit Gongdu said. The tower is not about knocking out competitors, but everyone should climb together. At least I said I shouldn’t take away the opportunity. I cannot leave people alone, especially those who, like you, are always looking for hope.”
“Petit Gongdu! I will never forget you and Petit Gongdu. Everyone who helped us!”
That petit gondue is me.
anyway.
“How did you prepare?”
“I couldn’t find many here.”
Lee Seon-man secretly handed over the item.
two jewels.
[Hwang Gwi-seok in the center]
[Blue Gwi-seok in the east]
Lee Seon-man and his team did not work passionately for nothing.
You were trying to get gems for me.
put in the inventory. The preparation is over with this.
I nodded and went to check the demons.
Their role is also important.
“Oh are you here?”
“Friend of our demons!”
“Keuk. Evileye is too cute for you. How about calling it a balrog at this point?”
The demons got pretty close before they knew it.
Gail waves and the other demons look happy as well.
“Thanks to you, I eat something delicious.”
“Hehe. Not bad for a Last Supper.”
“What is the end? It’ll be fine if it works out.”
“You don’t know the world.”
Gail shrugs and leans toward me.
“We had a little conversation last night. We also have to come up with our own measures. Listen carefully.”
I’m not the only one who made plans.
Perhaps their plans have been prepared long before me.
I quietly listened to Gail.
“What is that?”
I had no choice but to open my mouth.
* * *
Group interview.
An unprecedented event took place.
Dozens of gargoyles moved as if to surround us, and we arrived at the empty lot in front of the slave warden’s office where Maglet is.
Since there are over forty workers, it is impossible to enter the director’s office.
If there is one thing you regret.
“The demons didn’t come.”
“Even Megglett will be wary. It’s the same devil no matter what.”
That the devil was not included among the people called for the group interview.
Five demons are waiting inside the prison camp.
Okay. I’m assuming so far.
“Nice to meet you all. Putting it together like this makes me feel different!”
The door to the warden’s office opened and Meglet appeared.
The boy showing his gums and smiling.
His eyes were full of mischief, and he couldn’t hide his joy and trembled.
“That was a great idea, Evileye! Dozens of angry eyes glaring at me… It’s thrilling!”
Why does that pervert get less and less affection as he goes on?
Even the demons in the prison camp didn’t do that. At this point, I wonder if the devil named Megglett has a poisonous screw missing.
“Today will be an unforgettable day, Maglet.”
“Nothing like cancer. Uhhhhh! Ha ha ha!”
Megglett, who rubbed her hands and licked her lips, looked at us all the way.
It’s good to see you excited.
Because sooner or later it will be mercilessly crumpled.
“I can’t wait any longer. Let the group interview begin! Hurry up and show me what you’ve prepared!”
The man spread his hands and shouted.
I flicked my hand slightly.
I want to see you, but I have to show you.

-Kurrureurreung!
– Kwaaaaang!
There was a roar from the prison we had escaped from.
The traps were installed all over the worksite after spending several days.
I used a lot of skills and my level went up to 8.
Not to mention the power.
“What! Damn it! Everyone stay still!”
Meglet, who was in charge of the slavehouse, disappeared with the fog.
With this, the first step is cleared.
“Everyone move! My colleagues are waiting outside!”
“Good! let’s go!”
“Wow!”
We rushed straight into the slave warden’s office.
The gargoyles tried to stop them, but they couldn’t stop them.
Quaang! Break the wall and enter inside.
I found out what I confirmed in the last interview.
A drawer under the table that the bastard uses.
“Take one! Activate it as soon as you leave!”
They opened the drawers and sprayed the contents on people. While taking care of what I will write.
What I threw was none other than a portal creation slate!
I was curious. There are obviously a lot of people on the 39th floor, and there are dozens of people who are living in a labor camp because their team members have been wiped out.
Then where are the slabs they were paid for?
It was managed by none other than the slave warden, Maglet, and I found out its location. While being beaten by a guy.
“I am blocked by a veil!”
Those who escaped shouted.
The road to the prison camp is blocked by a transparent curtain.
It must be to prepare for escape. In addition, it must be a device that prevents those outside from entering inside.
I expected it even here. It must have been difficult to manage the labor camp alone.
But don’t worry.
[Sword of the Fallen Angel (A)]
– Can break boundaries.
The veil doesn’t work for me.
-There is a sudden
sound of something being cut, and the curtain collapses.
A veil bursting from a rift.
Fragments of mana glisten in the light.
“Mr. Evileye!”
“I was preparing!”
“Come this way!”
Choi Young-mi and Kim Seo-gyun and Ko Dae-jin. And Lee Sang-ok’s team members appeared.
Molgol is not a word. It was only natural that he rolled in the field for days.
The team members handed out the jewels they had collected to the people coming out.
“Thank you! Thank you!”
“shit! Finally escape!”
People running out screaming for joy.
“Go as far as you can!”
I urged them
“Everyone avoid your seat. Are you ready to create the portal?”
“yes. It’s done. Do you run away quickly?”
“no. I still have work to do.”
I turned around before I even had a chance to talk with the team members who were welcoming me.
“I can’t put you in danger. Slabs are good enough, but chances are you’ll be capping gems. Someone has to hold the Maglet.”
“What if Meglet?”
“This is the NPC in charge.”
The team members are astonished at the word NPC in charge.
“Nonsense! How do you catch NPCs!”
“It is impossible. You’ve already done enough. From here on, everyone has to live on their own!”
I understand the feelings of my team members. I would have stopped it if my teammates were like this.
“Do not worry. When have I ever let you down?”
Took. I touched Ko Go Jin’s shoulder.
“Help those who are running away. And in case I die, I activate the portal without delay. Because people have to live.”
“What is that?”
“now. no time Help Oh Ji-hyeok!”
It’s a little cold, but I turned around.
From here, me and the demons have to move.
The story is already over. Lee Sang-ok nodded at me and moved on.
Oh Ji-hyeok.
“Don’t die. you have to see the end with me I will definitely break it.”
“Why are you like this grossly? Get off immediately.”
“What’s off? This bastard…!”
“Hey, go quickly! Don’t make a fuss here.”
Before going crazy, Kim So-dam took them out.
Left alone, I watched the people running to the field.
feel empty.
Is Deokchun doing well?
I let out a small breath.
– Dig!
-Paaaaaaaa!
Pillars of light rose from all over the field.
[Caution!]
[Large-scale portal creation in progress!]
[Field disappears quickly!]
A dazzling sight.
With this, the second step is also cleared.
I looked down at the slate in my hand.
[Portal Creator]
– Create a portal by arranging jewels according to the location.
-The field disappears whenever a portal is created.

A shrunken field as if covered by a blackout curtain.
Looking at the people going up, I ran towards the slavery where the demons were.
