Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 39



Chapter 39 The Trinity

The darkness spreads from the rocky mountain.

The clear sky loses its light in an instant, and the brightly burning sun disappears.

The forest was so dark that it was impossible to see even an inch ahead.

[It’s night.]

[Day 1]

“What is it? this.”

I thought there would be a special quest on the 9th floor, but I didn’t expect this.

Qualification of Hyaltine Ruins Key on the condition of killing 30 horned wolves.

This is a phenomenon that would not have unfolded if the boss monster had not been steadily defeated from the 7th floor.

-Gooooooo,

would a universe without a single star be like this?

Darkness where you can’t see even an inch ahead.

Although it is possible to feel fear of an incomprehensible phenomenon.

-I

was more concerned about the wolves who might attack me than the strange phenomenon.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been so wary of my surroundings.

I felt uncomfortable and cold sweat ran down my back.

‘There is no light in the eyes.’

Horned wolves are literally nocturnal wolf-type monsters.

However, I can’t see the eyes that they should emit at all.

Did it disappear like a mirage?

Without any signs or traces?

I don’t even feel a presence.

Even the stink they emitted. The sound of footsteps as you walk.

that you hear

-Auuuuuuuu!

Just a creepy howl.

[Dalkhan, the wolf calling the night, appears.]

[Caution!]

[Dalkhan becomes complete on the seventh night.]

[Optector wakes up in the artificial night.] Gripping

his face at the messages that pop up one after another. moment.

-Kikikikikick -Kikiki

The

sound of a child laughing began to be heard.

It seems to be a monster called an optector.

I don’t know what it is. never heard of it at all

That meant that there was a high possibility that it was a monster that hadn’t been discovered yet.

An unknown monster due to sudden environmental changes.

“How come you don’t feel good?”

“That’s right.”

Chicken meat rose on my skin in an eerie feeling.

Deokchun was also in a bad mood, so he cried…..

Whatever it is, let’s move.

For the first time during the raid, the system told me to be careful.

It means that it is really dangerous to say such words in a tower that is not very friendly.

Originally, it was not a good choice to move in a place where there was no line of sight.

[Night Vision (E) Lv.1]

Fortunately, I had a skill that could be useful in this situation.

Mana gathers in her eyes, and her vision gradually returns.

It doesn’t look as perfect as it does during the day.

The color is faded and the shading is not clear.

Still, it wasn’t difficult to see the whole picture.

“Kiki Kiki.”

“Kheop!”

I could see the optector sticking out his face right in front of me.

A sword extended reflexively.

-The

sword that had hit the guy’s neck with no effort bounced off.

subtle touch.

It feels like you’ve stabbed a dense jelly.

There is no repulsive force or the sense that something has been cut.

“Kiki Kiki!”

A child-like monster with a distorted face.

Optector was also unscathed.

The body of the dwarf, who seemed to be about 1 meter tall, was dark and swayed unsteadily as if it had no shape.

It was a horror in itself, but the surprise was next.

-Sueuuuuuu

‘s face seemed to be swirling.

[The optector steals the ability.]

[Strength -0.3]

“What?”

Because an unbelievable notification came to mind.

It feels like a very slight loss of power.

The feeling of energy being sucked out of my body was terrible.

– Percussion!

I immediately dodged back.

A monster that steals abilities?

Wasn’t this the growth zone?

Giving and then taking away is not moral!

[The optector is bound to Dalkan.]

[The stolen abilities are absorbed by Dalkan.]

[The seal is weakened.]

-Auuuuuuu!

Is it because of my mood that the howling that resonates far away has become more intense?

no. Come to your senses.

Now is not the time to worry about that.

“Kiki Kiki.”

An optector swaying in front of me.

The guy is coming.

Flash.

As the authority was exerted, information about the bastard came to mind.

[Optector]

– A bound monster. (100/100)

– A specter that wakes up artificially at night.

– Normal attacks do not work.

– Absorbs some of the opponent’s abilities.

– Does not attack until all of the opponent’s stats have been absorbed.

“crazy.”

A monster that can’t even attack.

Somehow, when I just hit it, it felt strange.

Luckily they can’t attack me either.

That’s not important.

It is important that the stats accumulated so far may be taken away.

-Sasasasak-

Sasasasak

The forest, which had been quiet each time, becomes noisy.

The sound of something creeping.

The guys are coming.

I instinctively felt that I should avoid this place.

“Kiki Kiki!”

“Kiki!”

“damn!”

I kicked my feet at the timing when they all rushed at me.

four? five?

no. It looks like there are at least ten of them.

Judging by the increasing noise, there must be more.

“Isn’t that too much!”

I was furious.

If you have a conscience, shouldn’t the number be a little less?

This is what it means to just get out and die.

Did they give you a starter kit for this?

To restore that Dalkan or something?

-I

gritted my teeth and looked at the hologram.

dark world.

The only message from the system that has not lost its original color.

I had no choice but to wrinkle my face.

[Day 1]

[Time remaining until daytime-07:57]

The night was longer than expected.

-Kikikiki

-Kickkick Kikiki

There were a lot of guys chasing me.

The field to escape was also wide, and the night here was far from rest and tranquility.

The chase with the ghosts in the field where all creatures disappeared began.

The quest window that popped into my mind.

[Nightmare of Seven Nights – Hidden Quest]

– Dalkan, the wolf that calls the night, becomes complete after seven nights.

– The seal breaks after each night.

-Kill Dalkan (0/1)

-Stats for first unsealing (0.3/10)

-Reward: Hyaltyn Ruins Key Fragment Dalkan’s Fur Scarf.

[Server first! 9th floor hidden quest revealed.]

[Rewards added!]

-Special reward: Caller of the Night (Title)

“Title!”

I opened my eyes.

The title was taken as a reward.

I’m greedy. To the extent that I want to get it somehow.

But this.

“You can break it, right?”

“Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!”

-Chwaaaak

I slid to avoid the attacking optector.

The quest itself was simple.

Dalkan is bound by seven seals.

Doesn’t it mean that one seal is broken every day?

“Even roughly, it’s a week.”

However, since the horse is a week old, you have to fight the horned wolf during the day and avoid the optector at night.

Physically as well as mentally, you will be pushed to the limit.

Is that all?

-Kiki Kiki

“Big!”

[Agility -0.4]

It’s little by little, but I’m losing my stats by them.

At least it could have been avoided if the level of night vision was high, but it was still barely recognizing objects.

Avoiding it completely was next to impossible.

“Wow, I really hate you.”

Aside from difficulty, the quest structure is vicious.

I can’t attack the optector and they can take my stats.

In addition, that stat is the material that makes the seal unbreakable and the fuel that strengthens Dalkan’s power.

In other words, I am getting weaker and the boss mob is getting stronger.

Isn’t this enough to just say don’t break it?

“Eat this!”

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.3]

-Quaaaaaang!

I tried using the skill just in case, but they only laughed badly and didn’t take any damage.

Even magic skills don’t work.

I’m sure. The monster who is asking whether it is that optector or not is a dog scammer.

“Eek! Wow!”

Did I not see it?

Or was it that he was upset because he was attached to me running amok to avoid them?

The timing of kicking off a rock and running Deokchun spat at the guys following him.

Acid saliva is powerful, but it won’t be of any use to these guys…

-Chiiik!

“Kihyaaaa!”

[Effect of the starter kit!]

[Magic power +0.5]

“Huh? Is Deokchun the best?”

I doubted my eyes

It works,

even the starter kit works.

why? Is it human discrimination or racial discrimination?

I quickly skimmed the differences between Deokchun and me.

“ah!”

[Deokchun (Chaos Frog-E)]

-Attribute: Chaos

Found the answer.

The difference was in racial values.

Deokchun is a young creature. It is also a Chaos Frog.

That it’s not a normal creature.

[Chaos]

-The power to be harmonious with everything without being mixed with anything.

I don’t know what bullshit that is, but there’s one important thing.

“Deokchun, I will only trust you!”

“On him?”

That there was a means to counter the optector.

No matter how much you think about it, you can’t beat this quest by normal means.

It is impossible to escape without sleeping for a week even after waking up.

I can’t even guess how strong the boss mob Dalkan is.

Because the system warned me to be careful.

Even when the 8th floor orc chieftain came out, there was no such word.

Is that all? Look at the quest details.

– The seal breaks after each night.

It literally means the process of regaining its original strength.

In the worst case, it might even exceed 3 stars.

Catching the orc chieftain was also a struggle, but if it’s more than that…

I can’t think of it.

If there is at least one hope. – Ability to

unlock

the first seal (0.7/10)

optector. That the damn monster can only be released if it sucks my stats.

The strategy for this quest has been decided.

“You don’t have to lose your stats.”

how? run away?

no. As I said before, I don’t have the energy to run away all week.

I inserted my longsword and opened the treasure bag.

First this.

-Uhhhh

Glowstone farmed in the tutorial section on the 3rd floor.

Soft light leaked from the stone the size of a fist.

It’s not as bright as a fluorescent lamp, but it’s bright enough.

Originally, you shouldn’t use it.

Because emitting light in a dark space is no different from exposing your location to the enemy.

“But these guys follow me even in the dark.”

Throwing in a little more light didn’t change anything.

Taat! After avoiding the optector rushing to my side, I pulled out another object.

“Obviously Deokchun’s attack worked.”

It also died in one hit.

Durability itself means that it is at the level of a 1-star monster.

They have a fraudulent ability that makes them unable to attack normally, but they are not omnipotent.

In other words, attacks with special ‘attributes’, not ‘normal’ attacks, work.

And surprisingly, I have such a thing.

[Hyaltyn Ruins Key Fragment (2/3)]

-Has faint divine power.

A small piece of key that fits in your hand.

The length is just right too. Roughly the size of a lighter?

The bumpy grip wasn’t very good, but this was enough.

Right hand clenched tightly.

Deokchun on his shoulder. Luminous stone in his left hand.

-Chwaaaaagh!

I braked hard and turned around.

“This is the Trinity!”

– Quickly!

“Kiyaaaaaagh!”

He thrust his fist into the face of the optector who came closest.

A very cool blow sounded.
