I went to school for nothing (219)
Lesson 43. Too popular – 4
In the center of the desert, there is a pillar where a god dwells.
The guardians representing God called it a sacred place and guarded it.
People in a perishing world flocked to the Holy Land in search of their last hope.
Leaning on the slightest hope that we might be able to find a way out of destruction from the Pillar of the Gods
…
Even after the shift occurred, Ban Yu-Won, who found out the background of this chain room from the people who were still around the party, returned to talk to the party.
Originally, this information would have been obtained naturally if he had passed through the room while complying with the conditions of the trick room, but he had to find out by himself because he killed the golem or ‘guardian’ while sleeping.
“Pillar… Totem Faith?”
“You studied hard, Lucille.”
“Ehe.”
Serving the pillar as a god or the god dwelling in the pillar is not much different if you look at the results.
Dok-go-yeon glanced at them as if he was pathetic as he petted Ruchel, who rushed at him without missing the timing to act cute.
“There must be no relationship between the perishing world and the Constellation contract.”
“It would be possible to extract the contractor from the perishing world. I mean, if this was the real world, it would be like that.”
Ban Yu-Won had two hypotheses in mind about the room appearing in the tower.
One is, of course, if the tower is completely regenerated from time to time.
Another case is to copy specific people in a specific place that exist in countless dimensions and paste them completely… or transformed into the inside of the tower.
Even when I first entered the tower, I thought it was completely random, but now I was leaning towards the latter.
‘It’s clear that the foundation of the Union Net is in the tower. Considering the ancestors’ intention to build the tower, it’s only natural.’
The Union Net originated from the Tower and connects to all dimensions.
If you use it, wouldn’t it be simple to recreate the events that took place in countless dimensions in the tower?
However, the Academy does not explain the relationship between the Tower and the Union Net in detail, and about the Room, it just says ‘the way the Tower tests our existence’, and does not discuss the creation method in detail.
So nothing is certain… He was hoping that if he resumed his solo exploration, he might learn something.
“If only it was in the real world…”
Dok-Ko-Yeon muttered with a bitter smile, wondering if something was bothering him after hearing his words.
Ban Yu-won saw her, but only shook his head, saying that it was not Dok-go-yeon.
No, damn. At this point, it’s clear that she knows something about the tower, too.
He turned his head, vowing to make sure she vomited up all the information she knew later, but before he knew it, Light was approaching him.
“I have come to a conclusion.”
While Ban Yoo-won was talking with Dok-go-yeon, he was talking with the NPCs all along, and to his surprise, the NPCs were lined up behind him.
Could it be that you brought them into your allies?
Thinking of something like a semi-amusement and even putting it into practice, as expected, the current light is very strange!
“I will destroy the holy ground.”
“Aren’t you going out in one pattern from earlier just because you said to prove your strength?”
Why don’t you just destroy the room, destroy the tower, destroy the world, destroy everything.
But whether or not the anti-yuwon glared at him, Wright held on.
“Judging from the sentences presented as the conditions of this space, the original goal here must have been to follow the golem’s words into the sacred ground and be chosen by foolish people who call themselves gods.”
“What could it be? It must have been a test, descended to a strange place again, or summoned a monster.”
“It is not we who are to be tested. These are things that arrogantly call God.”
In fact, Banyuwon personally took a position similar to what Wright is talking about now.
That’s true, but I was so concerned with Light’s tone that I couldn’t hear his words properly.
The awkwardness that penetrates even his own ability to hear everything, Ban Yu-won firmly made up his mind and decided to regard the person in front of him as an anonymous quest NPC rather than Light.
“Moreover, I heard that the Holy Land was only discovered when the world was perishing from all sorts of disasters for which the reason is unknown? Then, first of all, shouldn’t we be suspicious of the Holy Land?”
Ban Yu-won doubted his ears.
The words this NPC says…
are convincing… they are!
“However, the human beings were pathetically flocking to this place to avoid destruction by being chosen by the gods without thinking about identifying the cause. this is weird It can’t happen unless those bastards castrate the fighting spirit and resistance from humanity!”
Ban Yu-Won asked Tike to continue recording ‘Wright Quotes’ and listened to his continued words.
“This is conclusive proof that the gods were playing tricks on humans even before the destruction! And it is also proof that they are afraid of destroying the Holy Land.”
“Yes, yes.”
“Even if I hadn’t killed the guardian, the probability that the humans present here would have been chosen by the gods is extremely small. If so, wouldn’t it be a better ‘struggling’ to break down the holy places and pillars that are said to contain the power of the gods by joining forces together!”
When Light shouted the word struggling and raised his sword, the humans who had been lined up in rows like soldiers followed him and raised their weapons.
“Ooooooooooo!”
“Let’s follow Aslight! He will defeat the gods and bring back the age of men!”
“The Guardian died without being able to get enough of Light-sama’s sword! We have a chance!”
“Let’s bring back the light from the false gods!”
No, it’s not just an ally, it seems like he was possessed by Light?
Ban Yu-won narrowed his eyes as he saw the holy sword emitting an unusual light.
There is nothing more foolish than arguing about the origin of power, but if I had to distinguish it, wouldn’t that be an apostle?
But looking at the current situation, it’s never too bad.
Originally, these humans were on average as high as the enemies that had to be defeated in the course of the test.
There was no way I could proceed normally now that I had violated the conditions of the trick room and crossed the room, so I had bullet fodder to prepare for an emergency situation… no, the more allies the better.
“Master, here… I think it’s Room 149.”
“Come.”
After listening to what Ruchel said, I checked and it was really Room 149.
From room 141 to room 145 and back to room 149.
Judging from the fact that Eden is waiting next, this room is probably the last of the chain rooms, but since multiple shifts that exceed four rooms occurred twice in a row, it was obvious how terrible the difficulty of this room would be.
“Then the question now is how to proceed.”
Right after the shift took place, the world turned black.
Sand and frost storms raged all over the desert, where the temperature dropped below zero in an instant without a single sunlight.
Dozens of whirlpools linking the sandy desert and the dark sky have formed and are spinning round and round as if enveloping the party, narrowing the encirclement.
Should I say it was natural? I could feel the power of the Constellation from each whirlpool.
“I will split them all with my own strength.”
It was Light who raised the sword with a calm face, as if he was not tired from wielding the power of the holy sword, but Dokgoyeon shook his head.
“You can cut it, but have you thought about the recoil? To my eye, they don’t look like they’ll ever fade away. Don’t think easily of a typhoon that contains the power of a constellation.”
“Then what are you going to do?”
“That’s…”
Dokgoyeon didn’t answer, just touching the sword sheath on her waist.
She intended to eliminate the power of the Constellation nestled in the typhoon with her martial arts that dealt with the energy of death.
However, in order to do so, it was necessary for Light to get rid of the typhoon first, but he was hesitant because he did not want to match the current unlucky and annoying Light.
[Voila! Lilith, who received the love of the owner and grew up, reappears in a splendid way!]
It was then.
A dazzlingly beautiful girl jumped out of Banyuwon’s inventory, stepped on the air, and shouted.
The slender girl, who looked like a high school student, had extremely artificially shiny blue hair and silver eyes with a mechanical luster. Her body glowed softly as if LEDs were wrapped around her body
.
Since the last time he appeared in the form of a doll, he was suspicious, so in the end, this guy did it!
“How do you become a human after receiving a meteor?”
[Because the level of my existence has risen. As if it’s a noble species… It was easy because I’m sharing the owner’s amusement ball!]
Lilith, unable to win over the anti-yuwon’s gaze, blew obediently in the end.
Of course, it would be more appropriate that Lilith, who had attained a high status as a mechanical lifeform rather than a pure human being, was temporarily able to take on a human form, but it was clear that her abilities had strengthened that much.
[You’re struggling with that kind of sandstorm. There is no problem if you board me!]
“I roughly expected that from the time you showed up at this timing.”
[Come on, everyone!]
Surprisingly, despite the fact that the humanized Lilith was in front of the half-amusement, a separate vehicle in the form of a huge tank was created.
Several appeared at once so that everyone in this place, including NPCs, could enter.
Banyuwon was convinced that this was the new power that Lilith had obtained from Relic.
I wanted to at least bow to the Prominence family.
“What is this!”
“Again, I feel like an idiot for thinking about such a ridiculous… thing.”
“Let’s board right away before the encirclement gets even tighter!”
“Whoa.”
Dokgoyeon and Ruchel were the first to board the tank.
Light showed resistance to relying on Banyuwon’s ability, but after slashing a typhoon with a holy sword, he saw that other storms intensified and the sand desert turned upside down in the aftermath, so he hurriedly dragged people and divided them into tanks and boarded them.
Lilith rode with Banyuwon, and she could control all the tanks by herself, just as Banyuwon controls the rain sword.
[Then let’s go! The destination is the place where the stigma is felt the most, right?]
“That’s right. Let’s go.”
The tanks launched all at once.
The sand storm swelled up and rushed in, but the tank, protected by Lilith’s authority, endured it unmoving.
Not only that, but he even absorbed the stigma from the typhoon, which disintegrated little by little with each collision!
[If the tower goes up high, the rewards will drop just by progressing through the map! Yum yum…]
“Lilith is nice. The stigma will be visible, so don’t swallow it and spit it out right away.”
[Chit….]
Even in the midst of dozens of vortices crossing and roaring, the tank controlled by Lilith easily endured them, broke through the storm zone, and reached the Holy Land!
“Uh… this.”
The front view was projected on the monitor inside the tank.
Ban Yu-won made a strange expression when he confirmed with his own two eyes what he had expected to some extent from the time he heard the word pillar.
Ruchel spoke the words that represented his feelings.
“It looks like a tower…”
“You were also trying to imitate a tower, right? Then it is obvious why the world was destroyed.”
Dokgoyeon snorted with an expression of amazement.
A very angry Light shouted as he opened the hatch.
“Everybody, let’s destroy that thing with me! The evidence that the false gods wanted to destroy humans is right in front of us!”
At the center of the Holy Land was a tower that soared without knowing the end.
Its shape resembled the Tower of Babel.
