Chapter 280
My body collapses due to the lack of gaze.
It doesn’t just mean collapsed.
literal meaning.
As if a stone tower he had built collapsed, his body was torn to pieces.
If it was a living thing, it would of course be dead.
[Fast Life (S) Lv.6]
“Whoa! I thought I was going to die!”
“To that.”
I was able to hold on.
It’s nice to see Deokchun crying.
wow that’s too much
I had heard about it from Shepin, but I had no idea it would really look like this.
A 62-story, disastrous, collapsing stone tower.
There is one reason why a seemingly ordinary stone tower was classified as a disaster.
This is because the stone tower will surely collapse if all eyes on the stone tower disappear after it was created.
With the person who looked away from the stone tower at the very end.
In other words, as long as no one sees the stone tower or someone can keep looking at it, the stone tower will not collapse.
It is a structure that collapses the moment all eyes on the stone tower disappear.
But, is it possible to keep looking at the stone tower? Even now, the damned monster is attacking.
You can’t stand still and bite.
“Haaaaaagh!”
Then it is. Monsters rush at you without even having time to enjoy the resurrection.
“Ah, get off!”
-Quaaaaaang!
Suddenly, I was so annoyed that I exploded.
Enveloped in flames, he blew off the struggling creature’s neck and kicked his feet.
You don’t have to move passively like before.
Information given by Shepin.
“Once the stone tower disappears, it doesn’t appear for at least a few hours.”
So, for a while, there is no problem.
He shot forward and swung his sword.
It splits apart as soon as it feels like something is caught on it.
Blood spurted out and covered my face, but that was only for a moment.
[Fire Bomb (S) Lv.7]
-Quaguagwagwang!
Even drops of blood evaporate from the intense heat and disappear.
As a bonus, the guys around me also disappeared leaving only black ash.
5-star guys die without being able to fight properly.
As of now, I have lost my temper and stepped back.
All that’s left are six-star guys.
“How many? five? six?”
I only caught a few of them, but there are still as many as this.
They’re hard to see outside the tower, but they’re everywhere on the 60th floor.
If the destruction accelerates, you will see it from the outside.
I clicked my tongue in my mouth.
It’s a disaster, it’s nabal, and I don’t know if the world will perish on the line of 6-star monsters.
Even if you can’t do it, those who have risen to the 50th floor will have to deal with it, but if the gate explodes widely all over the world, will you be able to survive?
I want to climb the tower quickly, but that’s impossible.
I know it because I’ve been through it. Why is the 60th floor called the end of the hunter?
So far, more than ten years later, only a few dozen people have passed.
To get to the top floor, you have to overcome 6-star monsters in droves and overcome the damn disaster.
Let’s not be in a hurry.
Because it’s still going up fast enough.
I don’t think I’ll be able to climb.
Simply because there is an infinite coin? There is such a thing, but aren’t there people who have already climbed to the top before me?
There’s nothing I can’t say
The answer is there and I have to find it.
In order to do that, we have to get rid of those who get in the way here.
“Grrr.”
“Kuaaaa.”
Those who show their teeth and be vigilant.
They bark ferociously, but no one steps forward.
Won’t you rush?
then i go
“Deokchun, let’s finish quickly.”
“To him.”
– Dig!
– Arms!
You don’t even have to count the numbers.
Deokchun, who read my thoughts, stretched forward at the same time.
By drawing a black line, flames embroider the sky.
The sound of bones resonating in the throats of those who were slapped by Deokchun.
The guys also tried their best, but that was it.
They’re powerful, but they’re cute compared to Mestoca.
The one-sided slaughter did not last long.
about 30 minutes?
“Cheak! Wow!”
“Krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Most of the monsters died and the remaining ones fled.
did not pursue Catching a few more now doesn’t mean they’ll appear less later.
Whoa.
I took a deep breath and looked around.
Monster corpses lined up on the floor.
I got a by-product with my slaughter skill. The meat was sent via a transfer bracelet from Helldying Kitchen.
Along with the flesh of the Mestoca larvae obtained while passing through the 61st floor.
The rest of the horns and skins were sold roughly at the shop window, and the ones in good condition were kept in a treasure bag.
Will be used later when crafting equipment.
With this, the tidying up is over.
“On the outside, it seems normal.”
“To that.”
I looked at the collapsed stone tower in the corner of the battlefield.
I almost died because of this.
It’s not common sense. I don’t even understand.
You can’t ignore it though. Because this is the tower and it was a space where unreality became reality.
I picked up the fallen stone.
It is a very common stone.
-Kkugooguguk
-Kwajik!
If you apply force, it will break as it is.
It’s not particularly strong or anything.
It is said that these stones are piled up to make a tower, but I do not know when it was made.
Did it suddenly appear at some point? without any signs?
I looked at Deokchun.
Deokchun is not affected by disasters.
It was Deokchun who discovered the stone pagoda first, and then didn’t you see how it was made?
“To that.”
After reading my thoughts, Deokchun rubs his chin and picks up a branch.
A guy who draws something on the ground.
Oh, also a spirit! Are you talking about the picture? It’s like a clever guy.
I quietly waited for Deokchun to finish the painting.
“…Oh you really can’t draw?”
“That’s right!”
“evil! okay! Why do you hit me!”
This guy’s temperament.
Beating me soothed Deokchun and examined the painting carefully.
There was a lot of information that Shepin told me, but there were quite a few things that I didn’t know.
The same goes for the process of creating stone towers.
It was hard to see the picture, but I figured it out roughly.
“It didn’t come out of nowhere.”
According to Deokchun’s drawing, there was originally no stone in the place where the stone pagoda used to be.
It was just a plain dirt floor.
There, a pile of stones suddenly came out, and it was immediately piled up as a stone tower.
ok this made it clear
There are no signs at all. It’s so natural and so small that it’s easy to miss.
‘It’s a sign of disaster!’ because it doesn’t
plus one more.
Did they say that a collapsing stone tower could appear anywhere? That’s right. Even in a place where there is no stone, it is spontaneously formed.
-Chizuzu
I showed my power while looking at the stone I was holding.
[Stones]
-Stones.
simple explanation.
I wondered if there was anything different about it, but after it collapsed, I had no ability.
I can’t get a good feel for it.
I have a lot to experiment with. I need to check how accurate the information Shepin told me is.
Caught up in the battle, I perched on a broken tree and looked at the note Shepin had given me.
caution. The rules of the collapsing stone tower.
If you look away after seeing the stone tower, it will collapse.
The person who collapsed together was the person who watched the stone tower until the very end.
This was the most basic.
“Can’t be destroyed while in stone tower state?”
It was written that no matter what you do, you can’t break it until you take your eyes off it.
Conversely, no matter what you do to the stone tower, if you take your eyes off it, it will collapse.
Even if the possessor of supernatural strength embraces the stone tower, even if it is covered in ice, it will collapse in some way the moment he takes his eyes off it… This must
mean that it cannot be solved with physical force.
Well, it wouldn’t be a disaster if it could.
Another thing to note is that stone towers are created one at a time with a period.
this is kinda ok If several appeared at the same time, there would be no answer.
If there’s one thing you’re stuck with.
“The spawn cycle is random.”
At least on record, the longest I haven’t seen is 14 days and the shortest is 3 hours.
In reality it could have been shorter.
How does Shepin know these things?
I was slightly suspicious, but since she was the only survivor in the village where Shepin was, I thought it might be.
“It’s okay.”
Rest is enough.
It should be safe for another two hours, so we’d better move now.
I checked the map drawn on the note and kicked my foot.
* * *
Where Kenlock’s body is believed to be.
Unfortunately, his body could not be identified.
After some time, I had to walk again, staring at the floor.
As three hours had passed, I did not know when and where the stone pagoda would rise.
It would be fortunate if there were no monster attacks.
“hmm? Who is there?”
“To that.”
I could feel the presence.
At the same time, Deokchun also reacts.
If you hit your head diagonally to the left, it looks like there is a stone tower there.
It’s a coincidence, the scale of popularity I felt was also there.
Looking carefully, I saw someone’s feet.
one person? no it’s three
“Help me there!”
“Looking at you coming this far, you look like a climber. This is also related. haha. Just listen to us for a second.”
“What is that? Do you want to do some quests?”
A confused voice.
He turned towards them, his eyes fixed on the floor.
It’s clear that he’s an NPC, seeing as he talks about quests.
yeah it seemed like it
There were several villages on the 61st floor, but where is the law saying it’s not here?
In the first place, it is difficult to solve the 60th floor alone.
You should listen to the advice or get help from those who have been through it before.
Perhaps it was because I didn’t respond, and their words sped up.
“Come on, we’re in trouble right now, but we’ve got quite a bit.”
“Then don’t. Aren’t you trying to clear the 62nd floor anyway? stone tower. Yes, we have to solve the stone tower.”
“Are there any ways to help each other?”
Why are noblemen with methods doing that?
Looking at Chuck, it looks like they’re looking at the stone tower amicably.
The timing to shake your head.
[Gaze Pumasi – Normal Quest] –
NPC Mokuto Ben Hohomun in Village 8 faced a collapsing stone tower.
-If we cooperate, wouldn’t we be able to hold the stone tower for a long time?
-Reward: Flame-bearing crystal (AAA) Thunderbolt sticker (AAA)
[Do you accept the quest?]
[YES/NO]
The quest came to mind, but I didn’t choose it right away.
It’s a bit lacking in content.
Do you have a good eye? what is this
“You know about the collapsing stone tower, right? We found our own way.”
“The stone tower will not collapse as long as you are looking at it. You can take turns taking a break after witnessing it with a group of people.”
“Anyway, I only need to see one person. I watch it, then the friend next to me sees it, and in the meantime, I can eat or do something and come back.”
It’s quite plausible.
How to use the rules of the stone tower.
By the way
“Then what if they all run away?”
That’s right.
It might be a way to clear the 62nd floor.
The more people there are, the safer it will be.
While someone is watching, other people can hunt monsters to ensure safety.
Ideally, that is to say.
But what about the human mind?
Did a group of people look at the stone tower?
Then the game of notice begins.
I’ll take my eyes off you right away After all, only the last person who looked at the stone tower had to sacrifice it.
Then, if you take your eyes off them without even knowing you’re the last, you’ll just die.
“To be honest, when I’m watching, the men can run away. Then I’m the only one who dies. Because I can’t look at the stone tower forever.”
Is that all? I might even blink my eyes without realizing it. If my luck is really bad, something might come flying in and block my view.
If there’s someone with malice, they’ll cover my eyes.
Other than that…
“Oh, that’s it.”
Gradually catch on
A catastrophe is something that stirs up chaos.
Just as Mestoca Egg cracked the villagers, so did the stone tower.
This damn stone tower is more dangerous when you are in a group than when you are alone.
It’s because they urge everyone to handle it together or betray their colleagues.
It’s dirty. It’s dirty.
You really divide people by different means.
I couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“I accept the quest.”
I approached them.
I have something to check.
