Episode 694 Helmet:
A sea made of poison.
“Is the sea right?”
“Yes.”
I don’t know.
It could just be like a very large lake.
Considering that there is a sandy beach, it looks like it is the sea.
“I don’t know why that Smilecap guy lives in a place like this.”
Is it personal preference?
Or maybe it has something to do with the concept of the 97th floor.
That’s it.
“It feels like I’ve been dropped into a strange place.”
Of course, it is true that the 90th floor falls anywhere.
It’s not a safe zone, it’s a field.
Whether you land in the center or the outskirts is a matter of personal luck.
Smilecap caught the traitor as soon as he crossed over here.
That means he knew where he would fall.
‘Did you intervene directly?’
He may have used his authority as a ruler to make people fall in front of him.
if so.
“I sent you here on purpose.”
It’s just an expectation.
I just left it there because I wasn’t really interested in it, but I may have been unlucky enough to end up here.
It’s not important.
-Tiring.
-Tiring.
Because members are still sending messages.
Most of those who gathered on the 96th floor came up to the 97th floor.
Lee Jun-seok needs further treatment, so he remains.
A few Union men also remained to move with him.
‘There are some big stars left.’
From the 97th floor, the probability of death increases exponentially.
They said that they are working on organizing and dividing the data so that any guild member can pass on the data collected here.
Excluding the Peujing Union, groups that act outside the control of large guilds and the government.
It was a fairly systematic method.
anyway.
[Hair loss on your head]: Is it all over here?
[Licks the top of his head]: Mine too. Oh wait. There is also a corpse of the first monster
[Mean Meow Punch]: Where have you gone again?
Looking at the message, it didn’t seem like the members had fallen into a place where people lived.
You can think of the entire 97th floor as looking like this.
I looked around the island to see if there was anything, but there was nothing special.
I don’t know if anyone lived there in the past, but there is a house that is falling down.
A piece of stone buried on the beach.
Is it a mermaid? Or something else?
I’m not sure because it’s a stone doll that was so roughly carved.
There is no need to stay here any longer.
I clicked my tongue and looked at the sea.
“It’s been a while since I’ll go swimming.”
I didn’t want to swim in a place like that.
Phew. I let out a small breath and jumped into the sea.
A toxic sea of purple and turquoise.
The odor and toxins that rose up were not normal.
[Poison Resistance (SSS) Lv.3]
[Curse Resistance (SSS) Lv.2]
It didn’t mean much to me.
‘The water speed is also shit.’
[Underwater Vision (S) Lv.MAX]
[Underwater Breathing (S) Lv.MAX]
I tried diving, but the water was so murky that I couldn’t see anything clearly.
If it is polluted to this degree, it is difficult for even marine monsters to survive.
As proof of that.
“Yes.”
“Sea Serpent just died.”
Those belonging to large species also died in droves.
He must have been dead for a while and his body is full of gas.
If I accidentally touched it and it exploded, I would be the only one harmed, so I walked around to the side.
I think I swam for about an hour.
I discovered one peculiarity.
“There have been a lot of marine gates in this field.”
There are areas where marine monsters die en masse.
The gate burst and they came out, but they died because the environment was not suitable for living.
At this point, I wonder if someone has polluted the ocean on purpose.
If it were Earth, it wouldn’t have been attempted, but this is the tower.
Even so, it is excessive.
‘wreck.’
A half-stranded ship is visible.
went up
Although it seems like it has been abandoned for some time, not all of the items have disappeared.
A ship loaded with food and cloth.
A logbook could be found in the captain’s room.
-After this incident, I will close down the shipping business.
-The depths of the sea will be full of despair!
-To cover up the anger of the deep sea, we must create something more terrible.
-It wasn’t enough! He was wrong!
-Doing something like this will only make the monster’s anger grow even more! What a foolish thing!
In addition to this, there were minor voyage records and diaries written, but they were not very nutritious stories.
It was full of toxic gas and even the paper was damaged.
Still, I found a few keywords.
“deep sea. anger. monster. “That one.”
I don’t know what the fury of the deep sea is, but it’s probably something like a monster.
A maritime gate or something.
I think the terrible thing is probably poison.
It is a guess that is close to matching.
Since we don’t know what happened here, we have no choice but to use our imagination.
“I should look for something useful.”
For now, I put the diary in subspace and decided to take a closer look at the ship.
After investing about 30 minutes, I found a few items.
A map that appears to have been used for navigation.
Compass.
Walkie-talkie? Something like a communication bead.
“oh. “Isn’t this a twin artifact?”
“Yes.”
An artifact made of twins.
It is an object that gives directions to each other.
It looks like an iron rod, but when you hold it still, it leans in one direction.
When I compare the direction with the navigation route recorded on the map, it is roughly correct.
When looking at the scale of the map, the distance from the destination is.
“Approximately 400km.”
It is the distance from Seoul to Busan.
It’s not close, but it’s a good thing compared to having no direction at all.
I’m glad I found this.
If I hadn’t done that, I would have been lost in the open sea.
Then let’s go.
“Roughly speaking, if you go at 100 km/h, it’s a 4-hour cutoff.”
grasp.
I kicked the deck and climbed up.
[Wear the left wing of the wingless angel (SSS)!]
[Wear the right wing of the devil (SSS)!]
He flapped his wings that extended out on both sides.
Although it consumes divine power and magical energy, there is nothing like it.
It is usually used in aerial combat or to gain the upper hand in a match.
“This isn’t bad either.”
-Quaaaaaaaaa!
It flew quickly into the sky and exploded a fire bomb to gain momentum.
Let’s see.
What’s at your destination?
* * *
Flying into the air is surprisingly difficult.
Even apart from the effort, there is no signpost to show direction.
Fortunately, I know at least the general direction with the twin artifacts.
Since I didn’t know what would happen along the way, I often rested on an island I could see.
“It’s here too.”
Each island I visited had something in common.
A stone doll that was also where I first fell.
Looking at them on every island, I wonder if they are either popular items or have religious significance.
A kind of totemism or something.
Or maybe it’s an object that symbolizes something.
There are a few things that hold me back.
-Mercy to the promised future believers
-The Servant of the God of the Flood
Some things have words written on them.
“It’s a thing full of chaos.”
There is also a stone doll filled with chaos that is hard to find even in the tower.
I took it for now.
It might be a clue.
“It’s a precious ingredient.”
“Hehehe.”
Isn’t a reel car also a difficult item to obtain?
This is such a mess.
I already needed those items to deal with the guy on the 99th floor.
I have the Chaos Sword, but the other members do not.
“Now that I think about it, Lick Jjakjak said he saw the First Monster’s body.”
Not all First Monsters are like that, but there are some that harbor chaos.
Not to mention their owner, the Ancient Monster.
There seems to be a special gate, so I need to get some of their byproducts.
[Camera (S) Lv.MAX]
Snap.
I took pictures of the stone dolls and gave them to the members.
[Petit Gongdue]: There are some confusing items here, so take them away! Use it as an ingredient!
[Petit Gongdu]: Oh, by the way, have you seen something that looks like a dented bald man like this?
[Lick the top of the head]: Haha, he looks exactly like the hair loss man hahaha
[Mean cat punch]: It looks like he’s about 0.8 the hair loss man!
[Hair loss on your head]: Uh… what is it? Is it okay for me to feel bad? Right?
[Licking the top of his head]: What are you saying? We are praising
[Mean Meow Punch]: Are you distorting our pure words?
[Hair loss on your head]: No? uh? I’m not stupid
[Petit Gongdu]: That’s okay. Very smart!
[Mean Meow Punch]: Ugh. That’s right, we’re hair loss idiots… Ugh
[licking the top of the head]: Scientifically, if you don’t have hair on your head, wouldn’t your head work better because it can dissipate heat better?
Hair loss man losing streak!
Looking at everyone’s community, it doesn’t seem like they’re in a dangerous situation.
Now it’s time to go inland.
A continent visible in the distance.
Well, I’ll have to check if it’s a real continent or a big island.
-Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Judging by the increased vibration of the twin artifacts, it was clear that they were getting closer to their destination.
As long as it was within sight, movement was easy.
[Rainbow Bridge (S)]
-Chaaaaaa!
Because there are convenient and fast means of transportation.
The closer you get to the inland, the clearer the foul air becomes.
I wondered how anyone could live when the sea looked like this.
“You’ve set up a barrier.”
A large-scale purification magic barrier has been installed.
Avoid contaminating the ground and underground.
Wouldn’t it cost a lot of money just to maintain that?
Well, it doesn’t concern me.
-Bruise.
I put my foot on the ground.
A place with more rocks and stones than sand.
It is true that people live here.
The faint but perceptible smell of burning firewood.
The sun had already set, and the golden scent of something baking tickled my nose.
‘encampment? Or maybe there’s a house nearby.’
I took steps towards there.
People’s voices are heard little by little.
As you pass by the coast, there are tall trees lined up.
As we entered along the trail created by the animals roaming around, we saw a group of people.
“Am I right? “Does this make money?”
“Oh sir. nastily. “I told you not to talk while eating.”
“I’m being picky about that. “Please take a look if I earned this much today.”
“I think you should take a shower. “It smells like manure.”
“No, it’s because I played a dirty role!”
Noisy atmosphere.
Are they people who have been moving together for a long time?
Although they bickered with each other, they didn’t seem to be on good terms with each other.
I hid for a while and watched them through the trees.
There are a total of 3 people.
2 men and 1 woman.
They are eating grilled dried meat.
There was a subtle smell of alcohol, as if it had been mixed with alcohol.
adventurer?
Maybe they are just mercenaries or workers wandering around looking for work.
Since it is on the 97th floor, it may not be a normal person.
There were only several traces of monsters that I identified on the way.
Since I have the ability to deal with monsters and the like, I guess I’m just sleeping on the street.
‘That’s it.’
I frowned.
-Bah.
I kicked a rock and set off their bonfire.
I completely extinguished it with water.
“What!What kind of bastard!”
“Shut up and raise your weapon, you idiot!”
“Mmm!”
These guys pull out their weapons even in sudden situations.
These guys are used to fighting.
[The title Night Caller is activated.]
[Night is coming.]
[Earth Wall (S) Lv.MAX]
-Deukdeukdeuk.
We moved forward, surrounding them on all sides to prevent them from escaping.
“hey.”
They also seem to have night vision and point their weapons straight at me.
Is one sword spear a wizard?
He is holding a crossbow and a staff.
Living distinctly.
Just looking at their neat posture, they were not ordinary guys.
“Where did you get that?”
That was none of my business.
Their luggage left near the bonfire.
The object placed next to it.
Because I had some business to do with it.
“It would be good for the owner of that item to tell me in detail what happened to it.”
pitching.
It was a pitch from someone I knew well.
You can tell just by looking at the hardened lava around it.
Magma Fairy.
It’s her thing.
