Stuck in The Tower

38 9th floor

“Ughguk!”

I stretched.

I caught 100 orcs yesterday and slept. My body is sore.

“did you sleep well?”

“Hehehehehe.”

Did you say that owners and pets look alike?

Deokchun, stretching after me, yawns.

I lifted Deokchun, removed the mucus from his eyes, and simply filled his stomach with a lunch box.

After all, it’s a community when you eat.

With chopsticks, I looked at the posts posted the night before.

[Fluffy]: Ahhh ㅠㅠ My phone battery is dead… I need to watch the Pink Punk music video.

[Nyangnyang Punch]: I have an auxiliary battery. Is this a trade call?

[Fluffy]: Are you sure? I love you Nyan Nyang Punch…!

[Nyangnyang Punch]: So, how far are you thinking, Mr. Gauguin? Haha

[Fluffy]: I’ll send you a private message for the tradeable list

.

I was able to see the small talk between Nyangnyang Punch and Bosongsongi.

The other day, I traded with my cell phone. Auxiliary battery this time.

Aren’t you saving something else?

I’m sure I’ll buy it.

“Are you attacking the bald man and the licking boss? I can’t see it.”

If it was like usual, we would have been biting each other.

It’s not like they’re running at the top with their form.

When you do it, you will be concentrating on it.

The methods are different, but each of them is working hard according to their own situation.

Does this excite you?

I can’t stand still either.

“Let’s go up, Deokchun.”

“To the ark. That’s right.”

As I was about to head to the portal, Deokchun pulled the crotch of my pants.

shining eyes.

You can see it whenever you want something from me.

what? I already ate rice.

“Geg. Geek!”

Move your body vigorously to express something.

Rubbing every nook and cranny of the body and wriggling.

“Oh shower?”

“Geg!”

tell me sooner

You can’t speak because you’re a frog?

That’s the difference between you and me, child.

I activated the skill with an ugly thought of being proud of the amphibian.

[Shower (F) Lv. 1]

“Uh-uh-uh.”

“That’s right.”

A relaxed voice flows out without anyone saying it first.

so good this

From now on, you will have to wash every day.

right. I will have to do this too.

[Water (F) Lv.1]

-Ahh!

“In the ark? Gweek!”

“Hehe. It’s good?”

Deokchun is also a frog in the end.

The last time I was on the 6th floor, I liked water enough to go into the shower together.

look Didn’t your body become smooth after being hit with water?

The shower is good, but it feels more pushed than real water.

– Arms!

The guy climbed on my shoulder and rubbed his body, as if I was in a good mood.

I can’t help him with my own strength, but I wonder if I can tame him this way.

Swallowing personal wishes, we headed for the portal.

* * *

[9th floor]

[Destroy horned wolves (0/10)]

-Paaaaaat,

the light went out and the vision changed.

It wasn’t much different from the places I’ve been through so far.

“Does it look like a forest?”

“Geek.”

I wonder if all of the growth sections are terrains like mountains or forests.

Actually, there are many gates that appear outside the tower.

If the 9th floor is different, it’s about the rocky mountain that can be seen in the distance.

It’s pretty spectacular. If it wasn’t for the tower, I would have enjoyed the scenery leisurely.

“I can’t seem to afford that.”

-Sababa Park

-Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,

I could feel the presence of the monster.

Dark wooded forest.

The slightly swaying bushes and the glare of the beasts that could be seen from time to time.

“A horned wolf.”

He’s similar to the Hound I met while working as a porter.

Because they are both dogs.

Hounds are a little closer to wild dogs, and horned wolves are literally wolves, so they are a bit bigger?

Like those who move in groups, they are sensitive to their territory.

That’s probably why it shows up right away.

-Cha Kang

I pulled out my longsword and advanced towards them.

Even if there are a lot of people, it’s 1 star.

They do not shoot poison needles like goblins, nor do they hold weapons like orcs.

The thing to watch out for is the front paws and horns on the head.

Surprisingly, the teeth are small.

“Didn’t they say they would stab you to death with their horns and then devour them?”

Weird guys anyway.

Somehow monsters don’t have common sense.

What are they rhinoceros?

“Krrrr.”

When I’m tongue-in-cheek

A horned wolf appeared through the bushes.

“Ohh?”

I’ve seen pictures of him in monster dictionaries and other books on View Tube, but this is actually the first time.

Horns about two feet long.

The rich fur was close to silver.

The relatively thin snout was packed with teeth.

“Khaaaang!”

A guy who runs alone, probably for reconnaissance.

Are you trying to test how strong I am by experimenting with one of my own kind?

Contrary to their appearance, they are very cautious.

Although I have similar thoughts.

-Chin

“Creep?”

I pulled back moderately and grabbed his horn.

I wanted to know their level, because I was the same.

“The power to run is pretty strong. Is elasticity good? It seems that his basic strength is lower than that of an Orc.”

Horn held in one hand.

The Horned Wolf swayed to and fro, trying to get out, but it was impossible.

I’m already under the effects of the starter kit, and I’ve even taken the elixir.

1-star monsters were no longer a problem.

Let’s see. Power doesn’t seem that strong.

“How about durability?”

– Fu-wook!

I thrust the sword into his mouth.

A sword that pierces the roof of your mouth and pierces your brain.

The Horned Wolf, who died in one blow, collapsed.

“Kleurrureung!”

“Kraaaaak!”

“Kuong!”

A group of Horned Wolves, who judged them to be dangerous enemies, began to attack them all at once.

It was quite spectacular to see dozens of wolves running away, spraying silver pitchforks.

“It’s boring.”

“To the crab.”

I had been hunting for several days, and there was no particular inspiration for me.

As cool as it may sound, a monster is a monster.

It didn’t change that it was a monster that preyed on people.

-Chwaaaaagh!

I hate monsters.

Isn’t that right, Deokchun?

“Wow!”

“Break! Break it!”

Perhaps of the same mind, Deokchun also spits and attacks them.

Someone may ask if Deokchun is not the same.

That sounds very blasphemous.

Because our Deokchun is a young creature.

“Quack.”

The guy nodded, saying of course.

[Effects of the starter kit]

[Strength +0.4]

[Agility +0.6]

[Acquire 43 points.]

Familiar alarms come to mind.

As the 9th floor is the last growth section, I plan to pick out as many mulberries as possible.

[Horned Wolf’s Mane]

[Horned Wolf’s Fangs]

It’s a japtem, but it’s also a good drop item.

[Destroy the horned wolf (4/10)]

The minimum attack conditions are also filling up quickly.

Of course, I have no intention of holding on to that one.

– Bahak!

“Break it up!”

He poked his horn into his side, kicked the guy in the face, and fired a firebomb.

-Quaaaaaang!

The guy who was charcoal-grilled with flames.

Unlike usual, the movement was rough.

One reason.

Because I wanted to clear the 9th floor as quickly as possible.

‘Currently, my strategy is up to the 8th floor.’

In order to constantly attract people’s attention and help the members, I wrote a strategy post every time I cleared it.

That means that my position has been specified to some extent.

“It was like that when I went up to the 6th floor right away.”

Control was strengthened at the timing of my coming up, as if it had been squeezed.

Of course, I cheated moderately, subdued Oh Ji-hyeok, and then came up.

Looking at his reaction at that time, it seems that even the large guilds are not convinced that I am under them.

The possibility of living on the upper floor and solving the attack on the lower floor cannot be ruled out.

As long as my identity is not revealed, they have no choice but to keep all possibilities open.

“I have to use it.”

– Kaang!

I broke the horns of the surprise attacker and kicked his neck.

Artifact used later.

[Heavy Bracelet (C)]

-Goo-gu-

gu-guk pushes forward and presses them with his heavy body.

Then, fix the body with the sword.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.3]

I burned those who were cornered.

Sweat beaded on my forehead from the scorching heat.

Anyway, that’s the conclusion.

“As we have a safe zone right in front of us, we need to move carefully.”

To quickly climb the 10th floor and solve the 9th floor strategy.

If you’re expecting me to come up to my strategy, I’ll move accordingly.

Of course, since they’re not fools, they’ll always be there.

Can’t you just say what I’m thinking about them?

Possibility to come up first Possibility to come up later. I should have assumed everything.

I know. Still, I just chose it because I thought it would be a little safer.

One reason.

“The beginning of a proper safe zone is the 10th floor.”

To be honest, the safety zone on the 6th floor is just a place to take a break.

He was considerate so that newcomers who had just mastered the tutorial could awaken and adjust their equipment.

As evidence of that, the sixth floor lacks infrastructure.

At least a restaurant and lodging?

On the other hand, there are various facilities from the 10th floor.

furthermore.

“An NPC is coming.”

And NPCs give quests.

Like other floors, there are things that can be obtained in the safe zone.

What if you can’t stay on the 10th floor because you’re being chased by a large guild?

“That’s how much you lose.”

That shouldn’t be.

Although I don’t know what is hidden on the 10th floor, I absolutely need it.

I have no intention of rotting in the tower without being able to reach the 100th floor due to my lack of specs.

-Suddenly!

“Ka-gang!”

The deeper the worry, the more unstoppable his hands became.

The sword he wielded stepped on and crushed the head of the horned wolf whose legs were cut off.

The Horned Wolves, stunned by the chaotic move, stepped back.

“Let’s go in.”

“Gww!”

I ran into the forest without hesitation.

The growth section from the 7th to the 9th floor.

Even for the starter kit, there is no choice but to catch more than a hundred monsters inside.

“Until now, the growth section quests were about catching monsters.”

They had one thing in common.

On the 7th floor, catch the goblins.

On the 8th floor, I caught orcs from each tribe.

If so, wouldn’t there be clues if you catch the Horned Wolves on the 9th floor as well?

Somehow, I thought it would be so.

– Whoa whoa whoa!

– Howling

and crying heard from all directions.

Is the whole forest a wolf’s den?

The animal’s specific stinging smell emanates from everywhere, and those hiding in the darkness stare at it with glares in their eyes.

gradually. However, wolves clearly surrounded the surroundings.

Although he was relaxed as if he was creating a siege, he felt the pressure that was tying people down.

“Come on quickly. busy!”

I couldn’t afford to be dragged around by them.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.3]

-Quaaaaaang!

Forced to open battle.

Three guys swept away at once.

“Khaaaang!”

“Kahaang!”

– Pudeuk!

I just broke my face with my fists and kicks.

One of them was pierced with a sword.

“Wow!”

“Haaaaaagh!”

There are also those who fall after being hit by Deokchun’s spittle.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been killing them like that.

[30 Horned Wolves have died.]

[Qualifications checked. I have the Key Fragment (2/3) of Hyaltin Ruins.]

[Night is coming.]

-Auuuuuuu!

The world went dark with a long howling.
