Chapter 111 25th Floor
– The ringing
community alarm went off.
The caller is Nyangnyang Punch.
[Nyangnyang Punch]: Gongdugongdyu, what did you buy?
you have an accident What does that mean?
[Nyangnyang Punch]: Empress Geumcheon asked about you, and our NPCs departed for the 24th floor.
[Nyangnyang Punch]: If it’s on the 24th floor, tt.
“this. Was it a lie to leave in the morning?”
“That’s it.”
The NPC named Empress Geumcheon is not normal.
Are you moving earlier than the scheduled time?
It was the moment when Alios’ doubts became certain.
Empress Geumcheon is interested in me.
“Let’s move quickly.”
“Gweek.”
I ran quickly through the snowy mountains.
Footprints were left each time, but I didn’t care.
There’s a blizzard anyway, so the traces will be gone in no time.
the problem is.
“They haven’t made a portal yet.”
Even if you meet the minimum clear conditions and create a portal, you must re-challenge after dying to meet the conditions again.
It says you have to catch 30 snowflakes.
We must hurry now, not knowing when the people of the country of harmony will arrive.
But if that happens.
“Traces remain for sure.”
The traces of bloodstains will diminish when the snow is covered, but the traces of hunting 30 snow monkeys are not good.
It’s snowing a lot, but I don’t think there will be a little left. Bloodstains or whatever.
Alios said. The people from the Harmony Bureau this time are good at gathering information.
The possibility of finding out my location was sufficient.
– Woo woo woo
woo The air rumbles.
A light flashed below the mountains in the distance, and I saw several dark silhouettes.
It’s not clear because it’s far away, but it was clear that they were from the country of harmony.
-Paang! phut!
Popularity was rapidly approaching.
Opponents are NPCs. There is no way to hide from me, who doesn’t even have the proper stealth skills.
no. Even if there is, I’ll find out soon.
If you move from here, there will be traces, so it is certain that you will be pursued.
Then, there is only one option left.
“Oh Mr. You die here again.”
-I
took out the dagger of the curse of blood from the treasure bag and stabbed it in my thigh.
A curse that spreads fast.
It was a pain I never got used to, but I waited for the right moment.
[Death.]
I lost my mind after the message.
I hope the place where I was is covered with snow.
* * *
Shortly after Cho Hyun-soo disappeared.
A group climbed the snowy mountain.
He was obviously stepping on the snow, but he didn’t even leave footprints.
Awesome level of light engineering.
One of the NPCs who was looking around while wearing the certification plaque of the Kingdom of Flowers raises his hand.
“Looks like someone was here. It’s subtle, but one place is sunken.”
It pointed exactly where Cho Hyun-soo was.
It was a sharp eye, but the surrounding NPCs didn’t seem to care much.
“It must be because the terrain is lower than the surroundings. There are no other signs around.”
“It is impossible for a climber who is only climbing the 20th floor to fool our eyes.”
“There’s no way it suddenly disappeared.”
It made sense.
They specialize in information gathering.
It wasn’t something that a mere 20th-floor climber could fool, as would other NPCs.
The man who spoke up to confirm his colleague’s words nodded.
At the order of Empress Geumcheon, I came here early in the morning.
Received two orders.
A contract with Alios Perno.
Gathering and obtaining information about climbers who may exist on the 24th floor.
I don’t know why he gave that order.
Because they were the ones who worked under the Golden Emperor, and her orders were absolute.
It’s usually underground or in a corner, so it’s best to go downstairs.
-Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
there was a sound.
I drew my sword right away.
Although it is said to be inside a building, this is a tower. There was no way there were no monsters.
“Let’s see who he is.”
I put Deokchun on my shoulder and moved forward slowly.
At most, there was a high chance of a 2-star monster appearing, but there’s nothing wrong with being careful.
-All I
can hear is the sound of the motor running and mechanical noise. There was no popularity.
The uneasy flickering lights caught my attention, but I calmed down and stared straight ahead.
three crossroads.
You have to choose. I don’t know where the left and right leads, and the front is half open, but there is a door.
A cool chill emanated from inside, but it wasn’t just cold.
[Poison resistance is activated.]
Air mixed with poison.
I don’t know what kind.
I don’t know what it is, but I’d better go inside.
Deokchun also has poison as a characteristic, so there should be no problem.
– Kiki
pushed the broken door.
There was quite a sense of resistance because there was a mechanical device inside, but my strength was not normal.
“Mmm.”
Entering the room, I frowned.
A cylindrical drum in a space that appears to be a warehouse has been overturned and mixed with an unknown liquid.
It’s normal for it to freeze at this temperature, but for some reason it remained liquid.
[Prenooctotocin]
– A type of antifreeze.
– When combined with water, it exudes poison.
I was able to read the information that came to my mind with the Authority.
material for the first time. Does something like that exist on Earth?
After looking at the liquid for a while, I purchased a few glass bottles from the shop window.
“If you keep it, it will be useful.”
do you know Will it be useful when hunting monsters?
I got about 6 bottles, so I got about 3 liters.
I looked around to see if there was anything else I could bring, but there were only a few things that looked like spoiled canned goods or hardened oil medicines.
Medicines pass. I don’t even know how to write it anyway.
“It’s like real modern technology.”
Checklist and security card on shelf. It’s even more so when I see something similar to a terminal.
That’s bad news.
Does this mean that places with technological prowess similar to Earth have also perished?
While rummaging through the warehouse, he found dirt buried on the floor.
When the wind blows with your face close to the ground, the dirt dust is scattered.
It has not hardened yet. Talk about someone being here.
“It’s not a human footprint.”
Footprints stamped in squares.
Combined with other traces, it seems to have four legs.
I don’t know what size it is.
“It comes at least to my waist.”
Looking at the dented iron shelf near the footprint, I wanted to be like that.
maybe even bigger
Judging by how the iron was crushed, it must be quite heavy and hard.
“The ark.”
When I was in the middle of reasoning, Deokchun pulled my ear.
Deokchun pointed to the emergency passage in the corner of the warehouse.
There was another tightly locked door under the back of the faintly glowing emergency exit.
–
I tried to force it, but it won’t open.
Can you cause an explosion?
I thought about it for a while, but decided to watch it for now.
I wasn’t worried about the monsters that would come after hearing the explosion, but the Ice Shelter had all sorts of medicines and equipment.
There is no guarantee that flammable substances will not be present.
If you’re lucky and a big explosion destroys the electrical room, it means there’s no way to open the portal.
It’s a waste of time to go to the safe zone and then come back.
On the 24th floor, which I had to go through unconditionally, there might be NPCs from the country of flowers.
There is no need to take unnecessary risks.
I got out of the room
-Weiying claps
“Ha. Really.”
I was able to know the identity of the monster guarding the Ice Shelter.
