[You can use the detection skill.]
[*Detection skill?]
[Warrior has sense of presence, Archer has tracking eye, Wizard has sparkling dust, Priest has wave of light, Rogue has tracking footprints… Are there more than just those?]
[*What if I don’t have that skill?]
[Well, if you don’t have detection skills… you can’t see it.]
[*Oh, it’s a transparent dragon??….]
[yes?]
When it comes to naming the most famous warlock climber in the Tower, people are split in opinion.
‘The sorcerer is the black princess.’
‘No, it’s a guide.’
‘What about the guide? Even if the Black Princess hadn’t committed such a heinous act, she would still be in that position.’
‘Don’t try to protect the traitor. Our guides have different personalities. You have to compare the two.’ ‘She’s the Black Princess, after all.’ ‘She’s the Guide, after all.’
On one side is ‘Princess Hok, Han Seo-rin’.
One side mentions ‘guide’.
‘Then what about the archer?’
When asked to name the best warlock, opinions differ, but if you ask about the best archer in the tower… nine times out of ten, she will be mentioned.
‘It’s a shrine.’
‘Shingung.’
There was a climber named Shin-Gung.
The archer who swept the gold medals outside the tower, Lee Su-jin, was the one with that nickname.
An archer with truly overwhelming eyes and skills… A climber who has never once been deprived of the top spot from the early days of the tower.
“Shingung??????
Eugene, who was holding Shin-gung’s hand, recalled the information that Serin had told him before.
‘That’s what we used to call the archer who shot arrows from the 10th floor.’
As Eugene was shaking hands and recalling what Serin had said, Shingung spoke to him first.
“Is the black magician that was with you back then not here?”
When Shin-gung asked with narrowed eyes, Yu-jin let go of his hand that was holding hers for a handshake and shrugged his shoulders.
“I had to leave for a while due to some circumstances. I wanted to have some time alone.”
Although he put special emphasis on the latter part, the shrine did not seem to notice that part.
“The drug industry is really on the rise. These people are even walking around the 20th floor.”
“Drugs?”
“That warlock over there, he’s obviously a member of the drug guild… Are you still trying to ignore him?”
Yu Jin, who had been frowning at the shrine’s question, realized that there had been some misunderstanding and refuted it.
“Who? Us?”
“It smelled like that when you donated 2 million gold at the auction house before. There’s no way you could easily throw away that much money unless you were selling slaves.”
“Why can’t I throw it? If I catch the trial,
“What’s coming in is gold?”
When Eugene asked back with a look of resentment, Shin-Gung, who had flinched briefly, glared at him again.
“That, that 2 million gold at that time… It’s not something you can get by completing trials. Even the most successful shop in the workshop can’t do that.”
That’s how it seemed to the climber, who didn’t know the circumstances.
Certainly, when the anecdote about him came up as a hot topic that day, most climbers’ reactions were, ‘Don’t lie.’
‘I should have thrown less then.’
Eugene, who had been shaking his head so as not to regret the past, answered towards the shrine.
“I think there’s some misunderstanding. I’m not from that drug department.”
As Eugene answered with an expression that said everything was bothersome and turned around in a hurry to go, Shingung quickly reached out his hand.
“Wait a minute! Where are you going!”
“It’s a workshop.”
Yu Jin, who had locked the absolute domain to prevent it from popping out, told the destination he was going to.
“A workshop? Huh!”
Shingung, who had been sighing as if he was being rude, added in a slightly angry voice.
“What are you doing in the workshop?”
“Why are you so interested in what other people do?”
As Eugene was walking to the workshop, he was hesitating whether to go after knocking out the priest who was clinging to him, and then he was told some information that was hard to just pass up.
“Are you trying to torment people by modifying the Tower’s trials again?”
also?
“Bullying me, what do you mean?”
As Eugene turned his head and stopped walking for a moment, Shin Gung, who had placed his fist on his waist, swung again.
“Climbers, civilians, tower people, and… trials.”
The first three words were enough to make me nod my head in agreement, but the last word was enough to make me doubt my ears.
“Bullying? A trial?”
Eugene frowned, wondering what he was talking about, and then remembered what had happened on the 20th floor.
‘Ah, that lab… …

Eugene asked cautiously, recalling the lab where he had encountered the puppeteer from the Drug Guild.
“Are you talking about the laboratory inside the workshop?”
“As expected… you’re a drug person.”
“That’s not true. If I were to be chased by drug-ridden climbers, I would be chased, and I wouldn’t be doing anything with them.” In fact, he was being chased.
“Are you being chased?”
This was because he had leaked false information about the 66th floor to the puppeteer he had met previously, blocking their path.
“What’s going on in that lab now?”
When Eugene asked, Shingung frowned and muttered to himself.
‘You wouldn’t have asked about that… Isn’t it really the Drug Guild?’
I didn’t notice it because I was so excited, but the person who had donated 2 million gold before was wearing the same shabby clothes as before.
Basically, Druggers who have a lot of money often change their clothes to avoid being discovered… but he wasn’t one of them.
“Ha, shit… I didn’t destroy it back then… I thought vaguely that the Force Guild had been disbanded, so was that a mistake?”
Eugene scratched his head and remembered the laboratory on the 20th floor he had visited before.
The Force Guild’s laboratory, which had named Deer 148… It was clearly a place that had some connection to the Drug Guild.
‘The fact that the trials are troubling you means that you are still going back there… …
This was complacent.
“Hey, you… aren’t you really from the Drug Guild?”
“That’s because I said no… That’s why I’m asking. Is the laboratory hidden in the workshop still running?”
Shin-Gung, who was still glaring at Eugene with a suspicious expression, shook his head.
“No, the secret location that the Force Guild discovered… disappeared after an explosion of unknown cause.”
It’s gone?
“Then why did you say that?”
“Is that so?”
“I told you not to bother me.”
“that……
“???Chimera.”
“A chimera?”
“Because of that, the crowds around the 20th floor were in complete chaos.” Eugene, who was watching the expression on Shingung sitting next to him, asked a little more in detail about Philip’s explanation.
“If it’s a chimera… does that mean you mixed up the trials?”
“Yeah. They mixed scorpions and lizards, snakes and cacti, they just mixed everything they could find.”
Philip, who was examining the object he had made, spoke about the scene he had witnessed.
“There were some that were two-by-two, and some that were three-by-three… Well, they weren’t very good pictures.”
“Is there a reason why it is mentioned that it was the drug side that did it?”
This time, Lee Soo-jin answered the question instead of Philip.
“Because I’ve been tracking it for a long time.”
As Eugene looked at Lee Soo-jin sitting next to him, Philip shrugged his shoulders and added.
“I was just guessing based on the circumstances. I can’t think of anyone else who would do something so outrageous as that.”
Lee Soo-jin opened her mouth.
“I recently witnessed the chimera being made on the 19th floor. It was quite far away, so I couldn’t catch it, but with my own two eyes.”
Shingung, Lee Soo-jin continued speaking, pointing to her own eyes.
If it was seen through the eyes of the greatest archer on the tower, it couldn’t have been a mistake.
“The black magician I met on the 10th floor before… he was kneading trials there. Like clay.”
Eugene, who was listening to Lee Soo-jin, asked her about the magician she had seen.
“Is this the cloak he was wearing?”
“Huh? That’s… …
“It’s the same thing that the warlock you fought on the 10th floor used.”
Lee Soo-jin, who was looking closely at the black cloak that Eugene had shown her, grimaced at the foul smell of unknown origin.
“What is this… …
Sujin, who was glaring at the cloak that Eugene had taken out while frowning, tilted her head.
It is the eye of the shrine.
Even if they were the same black color, if there were subtle differences, she could tell.
“Wait a minute, it’s a little… different.”
Philip, who knew the black magician accompanying Eugene, intervened with a cold expression.
“I don’t know why such a famous person, who is like a divine being, came to my store… …
Lee Soo-jin, who had been staring at the cloak, looked at Philip.
“Drug Warlock Love, the warlock that walks around with you is not the same person.”
Philip added the reason why he said so.
“He doesn’t have the guts to do that.”
Eugene burst into laughter at the remark that seemed to be intended to protect her.
“By the way, our sponsor has become quite famous… Is the content in the trending article true?”
When Philip, who was snickering along with Eugene, asked about the hot topic, Soojin Lee, who was frowning, hurriedly opened the bulletin board.
“Ha, so what if you can’t trust the bulletin board?”
“Not believing the stories posted on the bulletin board and looking into them are two different issues. The creators of the workshop need to be up to date with the news from the top.”
Philip took out a bundle that fit in one hand and threw it at Eugene.
“Here, the whisper ring I asked for.”
“Oh, thank you.”
Eugene, who had put the set of rings he had received into his inventory, answered the question Philip had just asked.
“Well, that’s right.”
“under!”
“I fired one shot from the 44th floor. It rolled well.”
“You used it on the 30th floor too?”
“Huh? You knew?”
“I told you, the creators of the workshop should be up to date with the news of the top.”
Philip, who had been giggling, took a sip of the beer he had received as a gift and continued talking.
“Phew! I guess I picked a good sponsor… How long has it been since I gave them the weapon and they’ve already had three trending articles?”
“I told you. I’ll show you.”
“??? Huh, huh?!”
The two people who had been chatting and giggling looked back toward the shrine.
“Tongue, bounty… this… …
Shin-gung, who had belatedly checked Eugene’s head, began to tremble with his parted lips.
“This is you… Seon Yu-jin… …
“why?”
Eugene, who was facing the shrine, smiled and asked.
“Are you trying to catch me and get a piece of the action?”
The shrine gulped and swallowed its saliva.
