Chapter 53: If we do well, we’ll meet?
I found out information about the 10th floor in advance through the community.
The goal of the 10th floor is to survive the extreme heat.
The theme was the heat that made even the awakened ones collapse, and those who were not properly prepared would suffer from burns and dehydration.
“It’s really hot.”
I split the lizardman who was hiding in the swamp area and was looking for an opening.
Those who fell out with their throats cut every time the longsword was swung.
I took off Dalkan’s fur scarf, because hunting itself is difficult with it on.
Because of the fear effect, monsters do not come towards me at all.
That said, it’s exhausting to walk around while splashing around in a swamp.
In order to obtain quest materials and meet the minimum attack conditions, hunting was a must.
“Kihaaaaagh!”
“Evie.”
-Chwaaaak
cut the belly of the lizardman who didn’t get tired of it.
Hard scales fell as if they were being ripped off, and he collapsed.
Is it a reptile? Appearance of inability to learn.
Even if there are corpses of his own people scattered around, his ferocity does not diminish.
It’s easy for me to find out.
[Kill Lizardman (26/30)]
[Kill Viper (34/30)]
It’s been a while since I’ve been hunting, but I’ve almost completed the clearing conditions.
As I entered the 10th floor, the clearing conditions became a little higher, but it was not difficult for me, who had already grown with the starter kit.
Even so, I couldn’t be vigilant because of the guys who were constantly looking for gaps.
“Shhhh!”
A viper roaming on a tree jumped off.
A person with a deadly poison that cannot live without an antidote once bitten.
It was a fatal blow to me, who had no poison resistance.
“I mean, I can hear everything.”
My five senses, which became sensitive, picked up every sound he made.
In the first place, they openly rush in, as if they had no intention of launching a surprise attack.
Those who go wild with excitement when they can’t move even if they move secretly.
-As soon as I
lightly slashed the sword, the guy’s head was cut in half.
The wide open mouth fell and stepped on the wriggling body.
A guy who slowly stops moving.
An item was dropped next to it.
[Viper’s skin]
Oh. This guy gave me leather.
One of Rilka’s quest materials is this.
Fortunately, the drop rate isn’t bad. How much do you get if you catch 2 or 3?
Maybe that’s because I’m lucky.
It would be better if the catchers came out.
“Just Mr. Peel it off with my own hands?”
just that Doesn’t it fall out if you cut the sheath and pull it? I complained for a while, but I couldn’t help it.
“Even if I tried it myself, it would be useless.”
I don’t have any slaughtering skills. There are no powers involved.
It means that no matter how you peel the skin, it will not be classified as a material item.
It’s just one of those plain snake skins.
Well, it can be used on its own.
Even outside, bags and wallets made of monster leather sell well.
Of course, there are no special options as it is not an item.
What about something a little more sturdy?
“The system is so amazing.”
I shrugged.
In order for monster by-products to be classified as items, system intervention is required.
Butchering and processing skills and powers.
Or, there must be a weapon or artifact with a related function.
Other than that, I have no choice but to expect drop items.
“It’s not like the by-products disposal team is waiting for you when you go to attack the gate.”
There was a separate company specializing in clearing the gate and processing the hunted monsters.
There is no such company in the Tower, so they only sell drop items.
Items are the only items handled in the shop window. I can’t even sell the things I stripped off.
“Still, slaughter skills aren’t incredibly valuable.”
Later, when the shop window level goes up, you will be able to purchase it with points.
Increasing my proficiency will depend on my efforts.
Anyway, the only way to get the materials required by the quest is to fill them with drop items.
I looked through what I’ve gathered so far.
[Rilka’s Request-Forced Quest (1)]
-Viper Skin (13/50)
-Flower Dragon’s Scales (0/1)
There is still a long way to go to gather the materials.
I think I’ll have to catch 100 of them to fill them up.
This is a problem that time will solve.
“Whoa. hot. right?”
“That’s right.”
This guy’s heat is the problem.
Since I took off Dalkan’s fur scarf for hunting, I could feel the heat.
I use water skills from time to time, but the coolness is short-lived.
I don’t know if it’s sweat or water, and I’m going to have a good time with my body.
You also have to find another way.
“You said there was something prepared to adapt to the environment.”
Didn’t the system tell you? Arrangements were made for climbers.
I was looking for it while doing the current quest.
Even if it’s unkind, the system doesn’t lie.
In the meantime, I looked at the hunting area. All the nearby fields that crossed over to the 11th floor were lost.
Now there is only one space left.
“It’s just over there.”
A lonely island in the middle of a swamp.
Lizardmen in a muddy swamp are full of vipers in what appears to be an island.
The entry itself is a pain in the ass.
It was clear that other people would have to suffer quite a bit to get there.
There are a lot of monsters, and just wearing gear makes you sink into the swamp.
Besides, there is a possibility of being poisoned by the poison that the viper stung.
Of course I didn’t care.
It’s a swamp, you can get out of it by force, and you have the skills to beat off their attacks without difficulty.
“That’s right.”
Even if the viper’s poison penetrated the body, Deokchun took care of it.
Newly acquired characteristic poison.
Because he used it to suck the poison out of his body.
A versatile frog.
I scratched Deokchun’s head.
“It’s a bit disappointing that it didn’t have any other characteristics.”
“Eugheh.”
After returning to the inn last night, I fed all the remaining potions of the failed potion, but no new traits were developed.
Still, it was a sufficient harvest because I got both poison and fire attributes in one day.
[Water (F) Lv.3]
I sprayed Deokchun with the water, which had risen in level before I knew it, and entered the swamp.
Legs go numb. I think it’s more because it’s armed and heavy.
The swamp held onto my feet tenaciously, but I pushed them out vigorously.
“Kihehehehehe!”
The Lizardman ran with his mouth open.
“Aww!”
-Fuhuaaaak!
It was cooked to a golden brown by Deokchun’s fire.
Did you know that owners and pets look alike?
The new feature seems to be to my liking.
The fire is hot once. Could it be used as a stove later?
Crossing the swamp while thinking about other things. Wait a minute.
“Ah-oh! Everything has come.”
I reached the island through the swamp as if I was half crawling.
This time Viper greeted us.
I can’t even tell if this is an island or a snake den.
They moved forward by knocking off those who were sticking out their teeth, cutting them, and stomping on them.
A series of repetitive actions.
By the time your mouth is dry from the rising heat.
-Shiny
“Ohhh!”
“To that?”
The light flashed.
central part of the island.
Unlike other places, the ground was hard, and a skill book was placed on top of a huge tree trunk.
[Fire Resistant (E)]
– You will have resistance to all types of firearms.
-Always applicable.
“It is exactly what I need.”
It seems that this was the arrangement the system was talking about.
Without hesitation, I opened the skill book and learned the skill.
[Fire Resistant (E) Lv.1]
-Huhhhhhh The heat
has started to subside.
I still sweat from the heat, but it’s much better than before.
Maybe it’s because the fever has gone down, and my head seems to have cleared up a bit.
If you stay here for a long time, dehydration will lead to a basic sunstroke.
-Saahaak -Shii
-shi gains
a little bit of time, and vipers began to flock.
Again, a snake den.
“It’s nice to find out on your own.”
Having regained my condition, I warmed up.
There are 37 viper skins left. I think we can gather them all here.
* * *
The five-hour struggle is over.
No, it’s a bit embarrassing to say it’s a fight.
Because it was no different from a one-sided massacre.
Viper is at most a 2-star monster.
It doesn’t matter much to me now.
[Kill Viper (114/30)]
[Kill Lizardman (43/30)]
The minimum attack conditions are met and the portal has been open for a long time.
I checked the quest window.
[Rilka’s Request-Forced Quest (1)]
-Viper Skin (64/50)
-Flower Dragon’s Scales (0/1)
I took a little extra.
do you know I don’t think the quality is bad.
Going through the same hardship twice is a specification.
That’s it.
“This is open.”
“To that.”
I looked at the skill book in my hand.
An item that drops with a rare chance.
Could it be because of what came out of Viper?
[Poison Resistance (E)]
– You gain resistance to all types of poison.
-Always applicable.
I was able to acquire a new skill.
Anything with a passive type of skill is beneficial.
Top not knowing what will happen. If you have the means to prepare, you should bring it.
I got poison immunity.
“Let’s rest for a while.”
He perched on a stump in the center of the island.
As you move your body, the heat rises, so you need to rest periodically.
It was a perfect environment to get tired of, but there were also advantages.
[Fire Resistance (E) Lv. 1]
[Skill Level Up!]
[Fire Resistance (E) Lv
.
It’s been a while since I was born, but the level has already risen.
That’s why it’s so hot here.
I fanned my hands and turned on the community.
“The kids are still on the 9th floor, right?”
I started attacking the 9th floor when I reached the 10th floor, so I will stay there for a few more days.
Because the 9th floor quest takes a week.
Although there are ways to advance the schedule in the middle like me.
“I told you to take it slow and not be in a hurry.”
As I have experienced, Dalkan is a monster that can be dealt with only when the seal is not broken.
Even if you make a mistake, you should never solve more than one.
It was close to impossible for me, who had two S-class powers and higher-level skills and even an A-class attack scroll, to deal with Dalkan whose two seals had been unlocked.
In fact, I still wonder how I got hold of it.
[Petit Gongdu]: Yoi yoi! Are you playing hide and seek with the optector today?
[Lick the top of the head]: These CEE haircut optector bastards.
A lick that responds immediately. It seems that a lot has happened in the meantime.
[Lick the top of the head]: It’s been 4 days since today, but I can’t sleep just thinking about the stats I lost. Ah-oh!
[Petit Gongdu]: Huhuhu… It’s a way to grow up in pain. If you catch a boss mob anyway, you get it back.
[Lick the crown]: Right. really sucked
[Has your hair lost]: Has your seal been broken?
While I was talking with Lick, the hair loss man intervened.
is this guy okay? Last time I saw it, it seemed like they were fighting with gauntlets on.
[Lick the top of the head]: ㅇㅇ The seal hasn’t been released yet. It was almost done once, but it was barely safe.
[Your hair is falling out]: I wanted to see you crying.
[Lick the crown]: Make me cry?
[Hair Loss]: Men who have hair loss, don’t cry recklessly.
[Lick the crown]: Everyone said that at first. See you on the 10th floor. Are you still on the ninth floor?
[Hair loss on your head]: That’s right… but nya nyangpun! Where are you? Did we catch up too much?
A hair loss man who openly turns the topic.
So why do you keep saying that you can’t even win?
Aside from that, I was also curious. Because Nyangfun was coming up relatively slowly.
[Nyangnyang Punch]: I’m on the 9th floor too. 3rd day car.
[Lick the crown]: Oh? did you come soon?
[Nyangnyang Punch]: It’s been a while since I came. did you come yesterday I’m running while skipping the daytime.
“Hmm? Skip the day.”
Is there even a divine power weapon?
Thinking about Nyangpun’s usual behavior, I’m sure I’ll speed up.
“Will Nyampun take first place this time?”
The guys who come up evenly.
I suddenly became curious.
[Lick the top of the head]: Everyone seems to be similar, but bet on who will go up first a?
[Hair loss of hair]: As a condition of clearing the quest?
[Lick the crown]: Of course. Are you going to do it? going to do it! How about granting the wish of the winner!
[Nyangnyang Punch]: Whoa… Those who are ignorant. I’m going to take the wish ticket well!
The guys also started betting to see if their competitive spirit was triggered.
[Nipple Hair Loss]: Gongdyu Gongdyu. will you do it too?
[Lick the top of his head]: Wasn’t he already on top?
[Nyangnyang Punch]: Yes, I think so?
[hair loss]: What do you think? We just have to pick which of the three of us comes first.
[Lick the crown]: That’s right. Omg call! Come on.
Before I knew it, even I became involved.
Anyway, there is a lot of fighting.
A bloody laugh leaks out.
[Petit Gongdu]: Let me show you the eyes of a fairy☆
Yes, this is fun again.
I put my chin on my chin when I saw the guys who each shouted that they were number one.
“I’ll see you on the 10th floor if you do well?”
I thought maybe I might actually meet the members.
