tower's dead (1)

[[Name: Rivarintos (Clear)]

Type: Labyrinth

Difficulty: B

Description: A labyrinth of Crete designed by Daedalus. It is characterized by a very complex maze and various types of traps.]

[You have cleared the labyrinth on the first floor for the first time!]

[This event will be recorded in the 'Hall of Fame' tomorrow.]

[Player Jinhyuk Kang and Hana Park each receive 5,000 coins!]

The sun's dazzling light.

The fresh air that fills your heart.

Whoa...

Jinhyuk closed his eyes and savored the taste and texture.

Sa, lived. Lived! We!

Tears welled up in Park Hana's eyes as well.

What a hellish month.

I was chased by the minotaur all day and couldn't sleep well.

He supported his meal with disgusting moss and mushrooms.

but survived,

Yes, I survived that hell.

But it's a short time to be happy.

Jinhyuk, who was next to him, patted his shoulder.

Yes?

Coin.

If it's a nose, a coin?

Park Hana slowly looked up.

'Look at me pretending not to know?'

Well, it was an amount I didn't want to vomit.

With 5,000 coins, you could purchase a D-level item.

Will you be right? Will you just give it to me?

Jinhyuk spread out his palms.

All profits from the contractual collaboration are the responsibility of the president.

...you can give it to me.

Park Hana handed the coin with a gloomy face.

'great.'

This has surpassed 10,000 coins.

The tail of Jinhyuk's mouth went up as his balance grew thicker.

'The benefits of the initial reward are definitely ssolsolsaol.'

That's a lot more than I expected.

At least at this point, no player has more coins than me.

Get Braham's ring and bring it back in three days.

Such! 3 days is too short...!

I'll give you two days.

If you open your mouth one more time, it becomes a day.

If it's more than that, you should get it right now.

...I'll try to save you somehow.

Park Hana bowed her head.

Despite escaping from the labyrinth and gaining a new life.

His expression was completely rotten.

Although he was freed from monsters, his life as a slave had only just begun.

Especially with a brutal boss like Jinhyuk, the future would be more painful than hell.

Don't look like you're about to die. I'll let you go up to the Hall of Fame alone.

At Jinhyuk's words, Park Hana widened her eyes.

Is that possible?

In the case of two or more people, only the representative player can upload.

" "

Park Hana bit her fingers.

A labyrinth that no one has cleared yet.

If it was known that he broke through it alone, it was obvious that he would receive a lot of attention.

Losing a colleague.

I haven't been able to level up in a month.

All of this might be forgiven.

No, where is that?

In the media and on the Internet, there will be uproar about the appearance of a promising prospect.

For Hana Park, who likes to get attention, it was a reward that Gumi couldn't help but gravitate towards.

For Jinhyuk, it was an opportunity to escape from bothersome attention and checks.

"How many viewers know about you?"

Why? Do you care about them?

You don't know.

Looking at their last chat, it seems that the probability of not feeling well is quite high.

But, as Park Ha-na said, there is such a thing as 'maybe'.

Then you can't make it so you don't talk.

Does that mean...?

I don't think the police will be interested just because a few keyboard warriors disappear. Well, it's just a personal opinion.

There will not be enough manpower to focus all our attention on the tower right now.

If it was a disappearance rather than a murder, it would be far behind the priorities.

It's a way to think about it.

You don't even have to tell them all that.

Because that area was Park Hana's area of expertise.

After breaking up with Park Ha-na, Jin-hyeok headed straight for the starting point.

As I passed the gate, I saw the familiar scenery of Seoul.

Oh. I'm not completely used to it.

Because there was a huge electric billboard right in front of the gate.

[[Ah, did you hear that? A week later, in attacking the 3rd floor boss monster, 'Dangun' as a representative of Korea]

It is said that the guild is moving.]

[Five! If it's Dangun, it's the number one guild in Korea.]

[Yes. After all, Europe and Japan have failed after the US, so expectations are on Korea.]

[It would be great if the Chinese side would do the same, but are they still silent?]

[That's right. This is because various interests are intertwined, so it is a situation in which each country moves rather than cooperation. Now that this has happened, I think we should find a way to break through with our own strength rather than expecting help from other countries.]

[If it's a Dangun guild, I think I can do it on my own.]

On the billboard, things about the tower were being Treasured Sword.

Attack the 3rd floor boss monster... .

It has risen a lot in one month.

'Wow. Did you already have only the 3rd floor boss left? Humanity too!'

This is not a good meaning.

The condition is to reach the next floor within 90 days.

In other words, there was no need to go to the second floor, let alone the third floor at this point.

However.

'I'm already going to the fourth floor.'

Because I covet the numerous resources that exist in the tower.

Rather than raising the level and growing step by step, he chose to climb quickly.

'It's really... . If you don't have the skills, how much do you want to regret later?'

It is possible to climb quickly now, but the higher you climb, the tighter the time will be.

The basics are poor, but the difficulty goes up?

The pressure of 90 days will come closer and stronger.

Because this wasn't something that could be re-challenged like a game.

'Anyway, I'll take the first clear. It's speed control, I guess I can do it to my taste.'

Jinhyuk's eyes turned to the electronic display board again.

Tomorrow it will be all over there with stories about Park Hana.

It was for this reason that he conceded the Hall of Fame.

excessive attention.

This is a double-edged sword.

If you get recognition and secure your place, no one will touch you... .

It was most likely to become a stumbling block to the most important early growth.

for mankind.

for the country.

for others.

If individual efforts are fading in the name of public interest.

That is the tyranny of the majority and a disgusting pretense.

Although vain hogus or nerds who are obsessed with hero games may be caught.

I am not

'First, let's gather some information that happened during the month.'

It is also possible through the internet.

But to get quality information in a place full of kadera and misinformation .

well.

It will cost several times the time and effort.

There's a better way than that.

Jinhyuk

[Tower of Trials]

connected to the community.

Numerous categories and articles filled the screen.

You have to find one of them.

A player I've been keeping an eye on since I was in the labyrinth.

'Where are you?'

Jinhyuk's eyes moved quickly.

Finding one of these many people was similar to 'Find Wally'.

However, Jinhyuk began to search efficiently by selecting places with high potential.

[Today's Popular Posts, ]

[Hall of Fame, ]

[Hot tip bulletin board .]

And finally.

'found.'

A familiar name stood out.

[Human bald man / Member since: August 13, 2007 / Details: Undisclosed]

If you look at the date you joined the community, it must be that person.

Human bald man.

it was still there

Jin Hyuk Eun

[Logged in with the ID you used to play Tower of Trials.]

'Colonel Timo'.

It was the ID that I signed up for on July 1, 2007.

It was nice to be back after a long time.

Nice to meet you... .

'Damn, why the hell did you have a name like this 11 years ago?

There are many cool things, right?'

Cheongcho (淸楚), swordsman (劍皇), warrior god (武神), etc.

Wherever I go, things I can say proudly.

But why?

At that time, I was obsessed with Timo, who was fluffy and scratched the inside of his opponent.

It was an irreversible mistake. Still, one thing is certain.

Human bald man.

Better than that guy.

-Colonel Timo: Hello, Indaenam. do you remember me

'Are there really going to be an answer?'

We went together once, but anyway, that was a thing of the past.

It could have been ignored for now.

I might have ate it at all.

That was when I was thinking.

-Human bald man: Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Captain Timothy! It's been a really long time!

The answer came faster than expected.

'You seem to remember.'

It's been 7 years since I last saw you... .

Jinhyuk's chest was touched for some reason.

-Human bald man: Wow. But why didn't you reply to a whisper or a note until now? I've been sending you since the first day to find Timo.

-Colonel Timothy: Oh, I've been a little busy for a month.

-Human bald man: Haha, no, no matter what. Have you ever been on a deserted island?

-Colonel Timothy: Well, we were in a similar place.

called a labyrinth.

I have been struggling to die for a month.

Of course, there is bound to be an information gap.

I was happy though.

I have someone who can give you the latest information.

If you are a human bald man, you must know more about the Tower of Trials than anyone else.

All you have to do is ask this person.

-Colonel Timothy: It's like we keep talking in a whisper. I would like to meet you in person. Do you have time?

-Human bald man: Oh, of course! But, I was going to meet up with that Bulgwangdong Nuclear Fist, can the three of us watch it together?

Another unexpected nickname popped up.

Fire Gwangdong Nuclear Fist.

Did you decide to meet that person too?

'completely

[Tower of Trials]

It's like having a first kiss, right?'

I'm curious.

To actually meet the dead characters you've only seen in the game.

The worries didn't last long.

-Colonel Timo: Please come to the entrance to the Tower of Trials. I'm going to go to the cafe.

Jinhyuk answered briefly.

A private cafe with few people coming and going.

Jinhyuk took a seat at the very end of them all.

Maybe 30 minutes have passed since we spent time sipping a cold chocolate latte?

rumble.

The door opened and two men and women entered.

You can tell without even checking.

The fact that they are human bald men and bulgwangdong nuclear fists.

As if the other party recognized him as well, he approached me right away.

Hello. I'm a human bald man!

Just over 170cm tall.

The man with curly perm hair and white skin smiled brightly.

looks pretty cute Is it a typical sentiment?

In the game, the bald black man matched the look with leopard print panties, bee tails, and butterfly wings, and he was really .

'under. Isn't this the guy who shouted out that Cesco came after this guy set fire to the worm labyrinth?'

[Your blood pressure has risen.]

[There is a risk of abnormal status.]

To agree.

Because it really felt like my cheeks were tingling.

At that time, the woman on the other side also introduced herself.

It's a bulgwangdong nuclear fist.

She is tall, over 167cm tall, and has shaggy skin that looks healthy.

His long straight hair was the perfect match for his sportswear.

This person is obviously .

A fat white man was wearing a floral tube and boxing gloves on his waist and fists, respectively.

no doubt

It was because the image of the Bulgwangdong Nuclear Fist who cried out 'There is no mercy in my fists' was vividly etched in my mind.

It was amazing.

yea that's the way it is

Of course, I thought I would meet some older, bearded men.

'By the way, these are normal people? no. In another sense, they both stand out too much, right?'

Jinhyuk stuttered and opened his mouth.

T...it's Colonel Mo.

I forgot.

The fact that the more crazy the deceased in the game, the perfectly fine in reality.
