Episode 283 Clear the 62nd floor
Village number 8.
It’s been three days since I’ve been able to use the house freely without a landlord.
I didn’t go out for planning and just stayed at home.
If it were outside, I would have been able to level up skills with a wide range, such as attack skills, but it wasn’t too disappointing.
It was high enough of a level to be used right away, but unfortunately, I trained skills that could be used indoors, such as ‘Eyes of the Abyss’ and ‘Obsessed Phantom’.
For this plan to work, I have to be home.
Why… … .
‘At least on the 62nd floor, the collapsing stone tower doesn’t generate inside the building.’
No matter how much the tower turns into a mess, it has a clear purpose.
To enable climbers to ascend upwards.
Giving them all kinds of trials to help them adapt and overcome the dying world.
It’s the same with NPCs helping us through quests and such.
To do that, a minimum level of safety had to be guaranteed.
Even for NPCs who aren’t climbers.
“Let’s go, Deokchun.”
“Yeah.”
I put Deokchun on my head and went outside.
I’m in great condition thanks to a few days of good rest.
I walked forward with one hand covering my eyes.
I felt uneasy because I couldn’t see, but I guess I have to understand that.
“Okay, okay.”
“Left? Okay.”
Deokchun moved in the direction in which his head was being hit.
The destination is the town square.
After walking for a while, you hear a commotion.
“I’ve been like this for days now, I’m dying.”
“Hold on. This is a promise.”
“Ouch! Who stepped on my foot!”
“Just look at the guy who peed on me yesterday. I’ll pay you back!”
The voices belong to the residents of village number 8.
All the villagers were made to live in the square.
Until the crumbling stone tower appears, blindfolded with a cloth.
Even if you accidentally open your eyes, you won’t be able to see the stone tower.
NPCs who lived for three whole days without being able to move and sleep outside.

It may be embarrassing, but NPCs also have this much patience and action power since they once climbed the tower.
One thing that was concerning was the possibility that there might be tower worshippers among the townspeople, but it seems that wasn’t the case this time, as the operation went off without a hitch.
You never know, it might be there but it’s just sitting there.
If you look at the stone tower that was installed to disturb others for no reason, your life will be lost.
Although they are a tower cult, they do not blindly interfere with climbing.
After all, their goal is to live their entire lives as NPCs.
In some ways, they are the people with the greatest desire for life.
“I’ll be right back, be careful.”
“Ugh.”
I pushed my way through the crowd and followed Deokchun’s lead.
Those who recognize my voice give way.
Thanks to that, reaching the destination was not difficult.
“This is it.”
“Okay.”
I could touch the stone tower.
I tried pushing with all my might, but it wouldn’t budge.
The stones don’t even come off.
It must be true because Deokchun cried and said it was true.
The corners of the mouth go up.
Fortunately, it went as planned.
The 62nd floor NPCs mostly live in houses to avoid encountering the stone tower.
The stone tower appears where there are witnesses.
What if the townspeople were gathered in the square in the meantime?
As for what happens, there is a high probability that a stone tower will appear in the square.
Induces the creation location of the stone tower.
This was the core of my plan.
“Everyone, please step back. Don’t stand nearby and say anything.”
The timing of the villagers’ movement according to my instructions.
[Frozen Break (S) Lv.1]
-Quaddudduk!
Locked the collapsing stone tower with Frozen Break.
Moreover, he took out a large bundle from his treasure bag and covered it up.

I bought several at the store just in case.
After covering the stone tower with two or three layers of curtains, I carefully opened my eyes.
People standing with sullen faces.
A cloth covering ice.

I blinked, but nothing happened.
It meant that they had succeeded in covering up the stone tower that had been built in the town square… … .
“Everyone, open your eyes! Let’s go to the next stage!”
“Oooooohhh! It worked!”
“Damn sunshine, how nice!”
“Get out of the way! We’re about to start.”
At my shout, the villagers removed the veils that were covering their eyes.
A few people step forward amid cheers.
From here on, it’s their turn.
Come to think of it, I have a lot of skills, but I can’t seal anything or build anything.
“You’ve worked hard.”
“What? The villagers suffered.”
The NPC smiled, showing his teeth, and extended his hand toward the stone tower as he gave way.
The same goes for others.
“It was dirty so far, let’s never see each other again.”
[Grab of the Earth (S) Lv.MAX]
-Kudududuk!
As he clenched his fist, a hand made of dirt and stone shot out and grabbed the stone tower.
That’s the beginning.
The townspeople poured out their skills as if they were venting their anger.
“Do it with all your might!”
“No matter who comes, they can’t break through that.”
“Isn’t there anyone with an artifact? When else would you use it? Take it out!”
“Let’s use this too. Get out of the way!”
[Glass Seal (S) Lv.MAX] [Twisted Space (SS) Lv.MAX] [Giant Silence (S) Lv.MAX] [Five Fairies’ Grasp (S)] [Crouching Angel (SS)]

All kinds of sealing skills, cognitive deterioration skills, semi-permanent barrier magic circles, and artifacts covered the stone tower.
So that no one can approach.
So that the stone tower will not be revealed no matter what attack is done.
It only took a moment for the town square, which was filled with skills that had reached their max level, high-grade artifacts, and elaborate magic circles, to become forbidden.
The moment when everyone looks at the square with satisfied faces.
[Disaster, the collapsing stone tower cannot operate.] [Functional restrictions] [The system is aware of the current situation.]
A message came to mind.
People looking at the message nervously.
I too clenched my fist and waited for the results.
In fact, what I did was closer to a shortcut.
Advertisements
Because they used Deokchun, who was not affected by the disaster, to block the function of the stone tower itself.
There is a way I can do it.
Nor have we figured out how to survive a disaster.
Nor have we figured out how to quell the chaos that comes with disaster.
But the system will have no choice but to admit it.
‘Because while we’re locked in the stone tower, the 62nd floor can’t do its job.’
Choose.
Should I certify this as a strategy or give up on the 62nd floor?
It was a choice that had an answer.
[Clear Floor 62] [Village 8 residents are transferred to the safe zone.] [There are shortcuts.] [Chaos value +5 points] [A portal is created.] [A week later, a new collapsing stone tower is created.]
“Okay!”
“Wow! Is this the end of this damn 62nd floor?”
“We did it!”
The townspeople cheered as the clear recognition was given.
It wasn’t unpleasant to see them hugging each other and making a fuss.
Because that’s what it meant to be happy.
Most of the NPCs on the 60th floor have been living under threat for a long time.
There’s no need to explain how agonizing it is to live with anxiety every day.
“Thank you, it’s thanks to you.”
“Thanks to you, I survived.”
“Don’t worry, just do as I say.”
“Don’t worry, I keep my promises.”
The townspeople slowly become hazy.
There is more that I ask of them.
I told the people I met on the 61st floor that if they ever meet people from the union, they should be considerate.
I don’t know where the safe zone will be.
You don’t know which floor you’ll go to, or which server you’ll go to.
It was a bit of a vague story, but it was enough.
That’s that.
“Both of them are doing well. I will use these well.”
I waved to Hohomun and Ben too.
Those guys who can’t say anything and just look away with a shit-eating expression.
You should be thankful just to be alive.
Okay, it’ll be tough from now on.
Those guys who ran away and abandoned me.
It was my belief that I should give back as much as I had taken, and naturally I protested against the system.

It was basic that the two guys had systematic restrictions.
[Deep Sea Dragon’s Spirit (S)]
– A dragon’s entrails made from the dragon’s entrails that live in the deep sea.
-Don’t worry about the fishy smell! I washed it well.
[Scissors of Contract Breaking (SS)]
-Disposable artifact.
-You can cancel the contract only once.
They were even able to tear apart items they cherished and cherished.
S-class English class. There is no need to doubt its performance.
Plus the scissors for breaking the contract.
This is awesome.
The grade itself is incredible. A single-use artifact with an SS grade.
The one-time invincibility artifact was also S-class.
That’s how great it is.
At the top, contracts have great significance.
Because the top notarized it.
That means you can definitely inflict a penalty.
What could you do if you could break that?
My heart is already pounding at the thought of committing a scam.
“Goodbye, everyone.”
-Paaaaat
The transmission ended with a burst of light.
At the same time, the stone tower in the town square disappeared, and the skills and artifacts used by the townspeople also evaporated.
All that’s left are me and Deokchun.
-Wooooooow
A portal created instead of a stone tower.
I scratched my head.
How did I clear floor 62 but there’s nothing worth posting a strategy for?
Not everyone carries around a spirit.
I’ll have to think about this for a bit, I think I might have an answer.
First of all, I need to finish what I have to do.
I still haven’t cleared the quest I received from Shapin.
No need to fuss. Just finish it right now.
“You said it was on the outskirts?”
“Yeah.”
I walked with plodding steps.
* * *

There was nothing to worry about as the stone tower would be created after a week.
Occasionally monsters would appear, but they could be defeated with a few swings of the sword.
On the outskirts of town, I found traces of Kenrock.
“It’s fortunate that the bones remain.”
A pile of bones was discovered.
There are also parts that are missing, probably because the monster bit them.
I can’t even see if the horn is broken.
It’s better than nothing at all, because we can at least sort things out.
I was thinking of just making a grave here, but Village 8 was gone and Shapin had his own area of activity, so I thought he wouldn’t be able to come here, so I decided to take care of it.
Also, take away any items that appear to be relics.
After finishing my training, I headed to where Shapin was staying.
Maybe it’s because a clear message came up, but Shapin is out.
A week until the stone tower regenerates.
Not only Shapin, but other NPCs will also be walking around outside with peace of mind after a long time.
“I didn’t know you’d clear the floor by going to the next town.”
“I was lucky.”
Really, it was Deokchun who was the virtue.
Thump. He tapped Deokchun’s nose and handed her the bundle containing Kenrock’s bones.
Shapin, who had no idea what was inside, looked inside.
“This is… … .”
“These are Kenrock’s remains. I thought it would be better to bring them. I’ve kept the relics separately.”
The corners of her mouth rise faintly.
I don’t know what happened between them, but the dead cannot speak, so the living must figure it out.
I didn’t ask what the story was.
Each had their own circumstances, and he wasn’t oblivious enough to let her feelings cloud his as she continued to look at the skeleton.
How much time has passed?
She came to her senses, put the skull down, and smiled.
“thank you.”
[Quest clear!] [Rewards are given.] [Celestials’ favorability increases!]
A window that appears as the quest is cleared.
Increased reward items and favorability with Celestials.
It was happening up until here.
[You have done a favor.] [The favorability rating of NPCs belonging to the White Horn Resistance has increased.] [In addition, the favorability rating of a small number of Resistance NPCs has increased.]
What is this?
