Lesson 73. The true body of the Tower of Babel – 1
Each time the Tower of Babel is broken through by a challenger, the Tower of Babel combines the elements of the world it has absorbed so far to create a space governed by the rules of the Tower with a higher level of difficulty.
As the process is repeated, the space that was once a part of another world belongs to the tower entirely, and the tower can create something completely new by combining the concepts obtained there in an optimal way.
The space where it finally hatches is the Earth.
However, Banyuwon overcame countless objections, cut off all routes for the tower to supply new concepts, and even cut off the connection between the tower and the earth.
―You really did a terrible thing, child.
The tower, where input and output are impossible, only innumerable concepts that have not yet been digested are trapped inside and swirling around like a whirlpool.
At this moment, there was nothing strange about the irregular itself.
– You’ve underestimated it too much. Everyone was like that. Who would have known that it would cause a severing of dimensions–!
“Thanks to having a good father.”
From the moment Team Rebellion entered the tower, the voice of an observer in the bay was heard in their ears.
Wanting to keep the tower forever, she probably didn’t care that much about the tower being disconnected from the earth.
Her anger must be due to the fact that all channels for the Tower to supply and demand new concepts have been cut off.
―If this happens, I really have no choice but to make you a Constellation. You have to become a Constellation and rectify the things you’ve done yourself!
“Ha, let’s start.”
Where did the group finish exploring the tower last time?
Actually, that didn’t matter too much.
As soon as they entered the tower, they were thrown into complete darkness without a single light, and one by one they were isolated and even locked in a prison made of black iron bars.
―Climbers cannot come into contact with those who entered the tower together.
On top of that, a rule was even proclaimed that you could never contact others.
Ban Yu-won contemplated whether to use his power to touch the iron bars, while repeatedly examining the situation.
‘Are you going to separate them from each other and kill them one by one? However, no matter how high the authority of the observer of the gulf is, it is impossible to force absolute absurdity only on the climbers.’
Although the tower is close to omnipotence, it cannot take its life by unilaterally driving climbers.
It is possible to increase the level of difficulty only when the constellation interferes, but even that is only on a set stage and cannot completely break the frame of the game.
Then, rather than breaking the bars right now and confronting the Tower’s ‘trick’ head-on, it would be better to observe the situation first…
“Oh, Master.”
“Ruchel!”
At that time, Ruchel, who was first released from the cage, fell as if sliding all the way down, and at some point rolled on the floor and got up and got up.
It was all black, so I couldn’t tell it apart, but I was sure there was a floor there.
―Kurrureu…
Soon, the shadow of a gigantic, very gigantic beast fell over her head as she looked around.
The beast, massive beyond recognition of its precise form, stood on all fours, and the acid mixed with its breath scorched the air and poisoned it in all directions.
The power leaking from it affected the space where there was only darkness, and tree trunks covered with green leaves rose through the floor.
All of that radiated magical power that put pressure on Ruchel.
– I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.
“The ruler of the forest…!”
Lucille, who instinctively realized the identity of the person looking down on her, showed her teeth and growled.
The ruler of the Constellation Forest, with whom she has had a deep relationship since her father, Kanid, had appeared with a bigger body than when he had descended on her home planet before!
Ban Yu-won looked at him and muttered, dumbfounded.
“What is this? This is an all-star game? Are the constellations we’ve met so far going to come out in a row in the future?”
―Ah, you probably don’t know the power of the Constellation, which has received support from the Tower and fully bloomed its potential.
Ban Yu-won sneered and replied to the observer in Manan, who turned around as if he had been hit.
“I’ve already hunted, but what are you talking about?”
―A constellation is strongest when connected to a tower.
Apparently, it was a story pointing out that when Ban Yu-Won hunted the followers of eons, he was free from the restraints of the Tower.
Maybe the Observer of the Bay is right, but…
“Need some help for Lucille?”
“No, Master.”
Ruchel looked at her foe, lowered her stance, and pulled out long claws of lightning above her hands.
Nine plentiful tails sprouted from behind her buttocks, and triangular beast ears that rose above her head pricked up and sparked.
“I will do it alone. Master, by the way, this is—”
‘Is this the body?’
Ruchel’s voice, which had many meanings, made her antagonist, the ruler of the forest, finally reveal his true face as the ‘Tower Manager’, and even Asha and Ayre, the observers of the Bay of Bays who liberated the constellation in this space, were shaken.
Ban Yu-won replied calmly.
“It’s the body. As the Observer of the Bay of Bays said, it is in a state where it is connected to the tower and receives support, but it is probably also a restraint that prevents it from escaping the tower.”
“Then what if I kill him now?”
“Totally die. It perishes.”
“Thank you for letting me know, Master.”
Luchelle laughed softly and in an instant inflated her body.
The fully awakened Shinsoo’s blood rapidly rotates throughout her body, temporarily placing her in a higher realm.
An engine befitting a sublimated body―― The wild core pumped vigorously, further accelerating the flow of energy within her body.
While climbing the tower with Ban Yu-won in a little less than three years, her unique powers, which she perfectly mastered, have accumulated over the years and are burning fiercely.
Her whole body was endowed with strength that would not be pushed back even by the Constellation that revealed her true body.
―That――is the power I gave it――!
A Constellation that notices the action of the feral core and becomes furious.
Ruchel, who had swelled up to the same size as him, raised his eyes and glared at him coldly.
Wild pink eyes were burning brightly.
“No, it’s the power that the master gave me.”
Divine sparks overlaid her sharp claws, where only lightning had dwelled.
If the lightning is her skillful power obtained from the tower, then this flame is the divine power she awakened from her bloodline.
The two powers fused together to form a completely new attribute―― Actually, that itself was possible before, but the class contained within it was different from before.
Everyone on Team Rebellion had the means to harm the Transcendental One in some way, and this was the potential that Ruchel had.
“The power to kill you.”
―Let’s see if you can say that even when you’re under me――!
Unable to withstand Ruchel’s provocation, the ruler of the forest moved first.
Even while Asha and Aire were just mesmerized by the battle of the giant monster unfolding in front of their eyes, Ban Yu-won fiercely operated the prayer sword and read the flow of concepts centered on him.
In particular, what he focused on was the principle that the constellation could appear as the main body in the tower.
If he could figure it out, he would be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish.
-Give up.
A woman’s whisper whispered in his ear.
―I already sealed it in the deepest part of the tower. Thanks to the disappearance of its string that was originally connected to the outside of the tower… Yes, thanks to you entering this tower, you were able to easily trap it.
Ban Yu-won honed his teeth.
-Aren’t you feeling it too? You will no longer hear its voice whispering lovingly in your ear. You won’t even feel the link that connected them. Yes, that is the power of the tower. After connecting you and that child, wouldn’t it be difficult to cut them off again?
I couldn’t argue with that now.
Because even before entering the tower, he realized that the connection with Dokgoyeon, which had been clearly felt, had been cut cleanly.
But obviously.
Evidence that he and Dokgo-yeon were connected remained in his body.
‘If only I could understand the last secret the tower is hiding.’
There is no way you can’t do it.
Wasn’t he the one who received private lessons as the manager of the tower throughout the three years of solo exploration?
Let’s assume this is the last class.
Having learned how to cut off, you will surely learn how to connect.
―Kuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Then the ruler of the forest let out a terrible scream.
It was a scream that he let out as his abdomen was pierced by his claws embracing flames and lightning as he could not overcome the strength of Ruchel amplified by the feral core.
Ruchel didn’t stop with it, and she ran the claws of both hands in succession, pulling out the entrails, cutting off the forelimbs, and tearing out the horns that sprouted from the top of the creature’s head.
“I am grateful to you because you connected me with my master.”
―You are―― Mine is getting bigger!
Ruchel, who had driven her nails into the snout of the stalker/pervert who had been obsessed with her since birth to prevent him from speaking any more, held the guy’s chin with his other hand and smiled kindly.
“You can die now.”
Then, with both hands, he pulled vigorously up and down.
The body of the gigantic beast was torn into two pieces exactly at the boundary of the gaping mouth.
Although it certainly seems to have become stronger thanks to being connected to the tower.
Being connected to someone and becoming stronger was the same for Ruchel, so it could have been a natural ending.
―I can’t believe it…
“It will be even more amazing from now on.”
The Constellation that became a corpse soon changed into the form of a beastman that it must have been before becoming a Constellation, and then scattered into a group of lights and tried to disappear.
Since Ruchel is a member of the half-yuwon family, she skillfully handles his powers―― Instead of sending the concepts that sprung up in him back to the tower, she absorbed them all herself.
Its name is the ruler of the forest, and the concept of a constellation that stands at the top of all wild beasts.
It boasted a perfect compatibility with her enough to make Shinsu, Ruchel, leap forward again.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Ruchel, who had let out a scream close to screaming, belatedly regained consciousness and looked up to see Ban Yu-Won’s eyes, but he was already accustomed to seeing her wild side, so he just congratulated her with applause.
Banyuwon, who had been looking down at Lucille, who was relieved and was returning to her original form, threw a question into the air.
“So who’s next? Asha? Aire?”
―It’s really different, how can you grant such authority to a mere family member… It
must have been such a shock that Ruchel handled at least a part of the power of the anti-yuwon.
―How many constellations do you think there are in this tower? I’ll stick with you until you die of exhaustion, so you’ll have to choose the right time to surrender. It’s going to be even harder later on as much as the resources you’ve used up!
The space changed its appearance again.
If everyone dealt with the power of anti-yuwon anyway, did they think it was meaningless to isolate them anyway?
“master!”
“Yuwonaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa””
“policy.”
As if he had promised in advance, he saw his teammates running into Ban Yu-Won and hugging him.
―Now is the time to return the authority that was stolen from me.
―Even Iza was hit hard….
―Ha I’m sorry about this. It’s not my hobby to bully anyone, but I can’t die like this.
―You will regret not signing a contract with me.
At the same time, I began to feel four presences taking over the space.
Since 1 vs 1 isn’t good enough, is it 4 vs 4?
And maybe if you get over this…
A smile hung on Ban Yu-Won’s lips.
“Yeah, that’s how it is. If I had surrendered just because I was scared, I would have been disappointed.”
―The ‘Chain Room’ has started.
He was very excited earlier, but then the observer in the bay quietly whispered in his ear as if he had calmed down again.
chain room.
Depending on the clear conditions, the quest continues to the next room, gradually increasing the ‘difficulty’, and finally encountering the results of the snowballs you have rolled so far.
‘The beginning is the body of the four constellations.’
In a sense, this must be the last chain room in the Tower of Babel, and Ban Yu-Won laughed.
It was as if the sound of cracks could be heard on the tombstone engraved with the names of the famous constellations.
