Chapter 93

Name:Stuck in The Tower Author:


Another person preparing for episode 93,

I turned off the community.



I tried to take a break for the first time in a while, but I can’t.

If there is an arena event on the 10th floor, there is a defense event on the 20th floor.

“It’s a talkative event.”

Literally defense.

Monsters rush into the safe zone.

I wonder what kind of bullshit this is.

Why is a safe zone a safe zone?

It is a safe zone because there are no monsters and even if you get hurt, it will heal over time.

This event breaks that stereotype.

“It’s actually more like a water change.”

“To the ark.”

Defense events have quite a few meanings and functions.

Event participants keep the designated area. As the size of the safety zone is large, there are many people who participate, and they naturally move as a group.

“The first cooperative battle in the Tower.”

It is a different experience for those who have been fighting monsters alone.

Even outside, most dungeons cannot be attacked by a single hunter.

Teaming up and guilds moving and breaking things.

Equally as important as individual skills are collective strategies and performance capabilities.

If the arena event on the 10th floor was the debut site for budding hunters, this place was a place to find talents to take along with colleagues to actually be with.

furthermore.

“It also plays a role in generating quests.”

Whether you succeed or fail to defend against the swarming opponents, damage will occur to the village.

Hundreds and thousands of them flock to it, and it’s difficult to stop them completely.

As a result of the destruction of shopping malls and convenience facilities in the safe zone, a large-scale restoration project takes place, and numerous quests occur in the process.

Commercial building restoration quests, building material replenishment quests, and more.

destruction and restoration.

The safe zone on the 20th floor repeats the endless circulation through it.

As it was a large-scale event with multiple purposes, it was known that the rewards based on performance were certain.

The exact information is not known because it is not open to the public like the 10th floor arena event, but it is said that you get quite valuable things.

It was a story I picked up when I was out in the past, so I can’t remember exactly.

Anything is good.

“Because first place is mine anyway.”

The fact that compensation is paid differently according to the level of contribution means that comparison is being made.

A ranking system is applied and points are awarded according to rank.

A complex yet intense event in many ways.

I turned on the system message log.

[Time remaining until the defense event – 37:24:12]

[If you wish to participate in the event, contact the NPC to select the defense area.]

I was able to read the event-related information.

[Tip. You can only participate in the defense event once.]

[Tip. During the defense event, the activities of NPCs and non-participants are restricted.]

[Tip. The defense event cannot leave the area once set.]

The day after tomorrow, the event will start.

The timing is amazing.

I heard that it happens once every 4 weeks if it is short and 2 weeks late.

I heard that there are cases where you get caught if the timing is skewed.

If you don’t need it, you can skip it without participating, but it’s too big an event to give up.

Especially those with limited funds spend quite a long time on the 20th floor, so staying here for a few weeks is not a problem.

I need to move too.

“Let’s go, Deokchun.”

“That’s it.”

Deokchun wiggled his hands, telling me to come and go, as if it was annoying, but it didn’t matter.

Can the pet roll around while the owner is gone?

I quickly put Deokchun inside the armor and came out of the inn.

Inside, Deokchun pinched his chest, but he ignored it.

About 30 minutes.

We got closer to our destination.

Who has experienced the most defense events?

Hunters who went up? Or a large guild that manages the 20th floor?

no. These are NPCs that take direct damage.

And speaking of NPCs on the 20th floor who have a relationship with me.

“uh? hello. See you again.”

There is only Bella, the owner of the snack bar where Rilka ate on credit.

His facial expression changes so much that he can feel all kinds of emotions passing by.

“Is it true? I don’t have to. If you die then you will only suffer loss. To be honest, the chances of success in defense are slim.”

“Don’t worry about that.”

Because my coin is infinite anyway.

It’s hard to say this, though.

“I don’t know if Rilka said it, but I’m pretty strong. There is no other reason. I’m trying to catch them all alone in a place where there are no people. And...”

He scratched his head and pointed at Bella.

This isn’t really my fault.

“You know, I had a hard time because of that Rilka. Anyway, I have a relationship with him, and for conscience sake, what should I say? Anyway, yes.”

I don’t know what I’m talking about either, but Bella seemed impressed.

look at her expression? no.

[NPC Bella’s favorability rating is increasing!]

A message appeared in front of my eyes.

snap. Bella took my hand.

-Uduk

“You are a good person! great. I will help you to do your best.”

“Uh yes. But give me your hand.”

It looks like it will break. In case you forgot, I’m a weak human being, so if an NPC grabs me tight, I’ll be crushed.

Is it already broken? I have no sense.

Only then did Bella, who hurriedly let go of her hand, clear her throat, perhaps realizing her mistake.

“Hmm, sorry for a moment. Sit down and listen. I will explain everything that can be said.”

A more active attitude than before.

While diligently cooking, Bella gave me information about the defense event, and little by little I was able to find a direction to complete the defense event.

When Cho Hyun-soo was preparing for the event, this person was also preparing.

The southwest area of the safe zone on the 20th floor. It was as deserted as the western sector.

Compared to other bustling places, there are clearly fewer shops and facilities, and there are many empty buildings.

It is so dreary as it is called by various names such as the ghost town of Harlem and the danger zone.

the time the sun goes down. Even the sky became dark, and the atmosphere became even heavier, and even the hunters who had risen to the ranks of superhumans did not pass by.

The NPCs who are supposed to do business are also sitting on chairs, playing poker and chatting, as if they are not interested in soliciting customers.

“Is it soon?”

“wave? I will do it soon.”

“The building will collapse this time, anyway, things that will rot.”

“Even if it’s not tied to the system, I’ll get rid of it with a single knife.”

I know it sounds useless.

NPCs belong to the tower. Under the Law of the Tower, you cannot escape beyond the area designated as your activity area.

There were some expedients, but none of them were relevant, so we had no choice but to follow the will of the system for each event.

“More than that.”

One of the NPCs who looked at the card cast her gaze into the clearing.

Dried trees and rundown buildings.

A person was moving in a space full of junk and garbage that people had thrown away.

Slender but tall.

I was diligently moving things that other people wouldn’t even notice.

Dig the ground and scoop up soil to make a hill, and make a barricade by inserting sharp broken metal pieces and branches.

Traps installed everywhere and even a tower where you can observe the flocking monsters have been created.

It looked crude in the NPC’s eyes, but the person who made it had a proud face.

Arrange things with sweat.

It wasn’t bad, but I saw a place where I needed to improve little by little.

“hey! I’m sorry you’re having a hard time, but if you pile it up like that, it’ll all fall down if the big kids push it!”

“Because that one has a weak foundation? The ground is soft, so don’t build barricades, but rather dig in the ground and make traps.”

“I see a hand. A latte!”

After playing poker, each of them started giving advice.

“ah! If you’re going to give advice, do it before you do it! If you’re going to flirt, grab someone passing by! Grab it and throw it here.”

The person who has been working for a long time moves diligently again while screaming.

“Eh. With that personality.”

“That’s right. Even if you help me, it’s a joke.”

“Don’t do that too much. To the kid who is still trying to keep an eye on you.”

“It’s good to try, but they keep catching people passing by and threatening to throw them here if they’re going to throw away junk. Because of that, there were fewer customers.”

“I heard that your goal is to block the wave by yourself and get first place?”

“Is it possible for a kid who just came up to the 20th floor?”

“If it were him, it would be possible.”

“I don’t think I can. Shall we bet?”

Suddenly, his interest shifted from poker to defense events.

“Mr. Lee! Because the land here is soft. I’m afraid I’m not going to dig it!

Licking dug the ground hard.
