Episode 347 Let’s Choose Carefully
New climbers have appeared on the 70th floor plaza.
A good sign that there were people who had entered the upper echelons. I waited for the bursting light to disappear.
Who came? There are several candidates. Someone from the Union? Ophelia might have come. Or maybe Big Star.
It’s possible that it came from a large guild, surprisingly. I left all the strategies open.
Even large guild members will be able to climb it if they just follow along.
‘It seems like there was an order within the guild to ignore my strategy.’
The large guilds and the Pujing Alliance are hostile. Through the alliance, the truth about their corrupt Baek-Hwan and Safer policies was revealed.
If they start believing and following my strategy, they will inevitably start to have doubts inside them.
-Saaaaah
The halo of light disappeared and the faces of those who had come up became visible.
There were four of them. They were welcoming faces.
“What are you looking at? It’s some kind of colored paper. I’ll just fold it up.”
“Brother! Stop swearing.”
“… You didn’t swear?”
“Oh, right? Hehe. That’s what I said when I told Evil Eye to call it colored paper.”
Oh Jing-hyeok with a sullen expression and Kim So-dam with a smile and arm in arm with him.
Kim So-dam waves happily. We had a party together on the 30th floor.
Oh Ji-hyeok and I have had a bad relationship since the 6th floor, but things are a bit different now.
Wow, I knew it was a community thing, but it’s true that the two of you are meeting for real. Isn’t it the end of the world? Congratulations.
“Hey, bro! I’m here!”
The Ijiki I met on the 65th floor also came. I knew he would come. He was the one who started climbing before me.
At the time, he was late because he was interrogating the top worshiper hunter and recovering his comrade.
however…….
“What about him? Bread.”
“That guy is still waiting his turn on the 68th floor. Don’t worry, he’ll be fine with the lady.”
“If you’re a lady, then you’re probably a gangster?”
“I always say this, but your naming sense is really bad.”
A guy who shakes his head from side to side.
If Kang-chong-i is Kang-chong-i, what is Lady?
Okay. Call me whatever you want.
I’m glad Bread is okay. I thought I was kicked out again. I was badly injured at the time.
That’s three, and the last one is… … .
“Woooooooo! It’s Hyungniiim!”
A guy lying on the floor screaming.

The Pujing Union we met on the 60th floor, that’s right…
“Sexy guy Kim Jung-hyun came to see you, hyung!”
“Bro, I always feel this way, but the people in the Union are all weird. They say Matangi is gone.”
“Oh, that’s a hasty generalization. That guy is the only one who’s weird.”
At those words, Ijikiil looks me over from head to toe.
What. Why. What.
Either way, it’s a good sign. If they’re up, it means others will be up soon.
Didn’t Iziki tell you? Bread was waiting for his turn on the 68th floor.
The strategy was announced through Lee Jun-seok.
[Lee Jun-seok]: (Notice) Starting today, Gongdu will no longer be posting strategy guides himself.
Did you go outside? No! You are currently in the upper floors and cannot post on channels below floor 70!
That’s why there’s been no activity for a while.
You can see it again by going to the upper channel! Let’s all cheer up and go welcome Gongdu!
[Muscle Pang Pang Warrior]: Woohoo! Go up!
[Dreams and Hopes]: Ball! Dew! Ball! Dew!
[Kim Bu-young]: Really, the 70th floor? This is so cool!
[Green Leaf]: I wonder why there hasn’t been any posts for a while! Let’s have a toast!
[Like a Rock]: Huh? Aren’t there any rumors about bald spots lately?
[Dodo]: Nyangpun-nim and Lickjjak-nim weren’t here either. Could it be…?
[Lee Jun-seok]: Yes! You recently entered the upper echelons!
Woooooooo!
The chat window was in chaos for a while.
Anyway, after Lee Jun-seok posted the article, I sent him the strategy I had organized.
They didn’t just give it away, they also sent mass-produced observation items they had received from Framberg.
Plus, I have another great idea for you.
[Petit Gongdu]: Those who found the balloons first, wait and help the next people find them!
This is it. The story is that instead of going straight to the portal, help those coming up from below.
It’s much safer that way. There’s no chance of getting tangled up in the middle.
Since it’s the 69th floor, there are no community restrictions yet, so we can communicate with each other and decide the order.
During this process, the bond between the people of the union will become stronger.
“There will be about eight more coming in the next few days, Evil Eye.”
“It’s coming up faster than I thought.”

“Petit Gongdu completely destroyed several floors.”
I nodded to Oh Ji-hyeok’s words. The 68th floor was completely open for now, and the 69th floor was also in a similar situation.
If you look at the community, there is still a picture of Pient crouching down with his knees held. There is also a can in front of him. Sometimes, kind-hearted members of the union throw coins at him.

Anyway. There are many more. If you go to the 67th floor, they will actively help you, and if you have enough people, you can clear the 65th floor relatively easily. The 64th floor also has a connection to Daerimwon.
It’s a great achievement for one person to have done. It drastically lowered the difficulty of one level.
Perhaps later climbers will find the 60th floor easier to climb than the 50th.
“It’s on the 70th floor. The Limit Breakthrough Skill Book.”
“Oh? Oh? How did you know?”
“There is a hunter from the mountain clan in the upper floors. He contacted me.”
“Oh, you’re talking about the rookie group.”
Lee Jun-seok said before. Among the rookie group, there are some from the Sangun Guild. Since they joined relatively recently, they are probably climbing the ladder compared to other top hunters.
It’s not impossible that you’ll run into him as you go up. The fact that such a guy approached Oh Ji-hyeok…
‘I think Oh Ji-hyeok also has a chance of making it into the rookie group.’
It’s a very possible story. I’m also interested in that. Anyway, I’ve made some acquaintances. It’s also a powerful force that’s mentioned among NPCs.
Smile Cap, which is expected to rise to the top, is also a rookie group.
Oh Ji-hyeok could be a connection if he gets their attention. To get in there, you have to be a rookie.
“They’ve shown interest in you and the others. They might contact you separately.”
“Oh my. I’d be happy if you did that.”
Since we might meet in the future, it might not be a bad idea to talk about it in advance.
We started by exchanging greetings and then talked about several topics.
It’s natural that the NPCs’ attention is drawn to us. They spy on us and gossip.
“A lot of climbers are coming up?”
“That’s right. I haven’t even seen your nose in a while.”
“Hahaha! Isn’t that great? We should do business too. Come on! There’s a good potion here!”
“I can’t lose either. Miss! It looks like you’re dyeing your hair. Come to our hair salon!”
It was a moment when the 70th floor came to life.
* * *
The moment when the licking challenge ends.
I cleared 14 traces faster than expected. The revival project has also been completed to some extent.
“Are you saying I can just use this to make sales?”
“Oh. To use it, hold it in front of a dead person. If their spirit is still there, there will be a reaction.”
“Can’t it be used on climbers?”
“This alone is not enough. Climbers don’t really die. Other conditions are needed.”
That’s true too. If you think about it, climbers are deducting coins. If they use them all up, they get kicked out.
I received 30 empty soulstones from Geneta. They distribute them through various routes.
I’m slowly getting ready to leave. I can’t help but feel a little rushed.
There is no better place to level up your skills than here. But the reason why you want to go up is… … .
“Hey, here we go again. What are you going to do? Huh?”

“Hyungniiiiiiiiim!”
“Is this the place? This is the inn where the Rainbow Warrior stays!”
“Talmoza, hug me just once!”
“I saw it a little while ago, but there was a hairy old man and a golden one. Who is he?”
Because people from the union, including Kim Jung-hyun, are coming up one by one.
It’s good to get attention, but it’s a bit awkward to be active like this. In fact, it’s only awkward for me.
‘The more eyes there are, the harder it is to hide my identity.’
Even if the lower tiers are like that, the upper channels need to keep raising their strategies.
If the speed at which I climb and the speed at which my strategy improves are the same, it’s obvious that I’ll be suspected.
The sight of the balding man and the licking machine has already been revealed.
Well, the licking face hasn’t been revealed, but since the helmet has a voice-changing function, there must be countless people who don’t even know the gender.
Nyangpun is a former idol, so he’s hiding his identity thoroughly. We only know him, but other people might not even know that he’s Nyangpun.
It’s fluffy. It’s fluffy, so pass.
“Lilka, our Lilka. It’s a little different up there, isn’t it?”
“Yeah! It’ll be different from what I’ve experienced so far.”
Licky, who has Lilka sitting on his thigh, strokes the guy. Has he already tamed him? That’s quite a feat.
There is a clear reason why the 70th floor is classified as the upper floor. The structure and format are different. I think you have to experience it yourself to know for sure.
The basic preparations are all done. All that’s left is.
“Are you going to give me another forced quest?”
“Hehe. Of course! Please help me this time too! In the upper floors, you can get things that are hard to get elsewhere.”
[Lilka’s Request (6) – Forced Quest]
-You’re used to it now, right? Accept it!
Well then, that’s right. There’s no way this guy would just let it go.
Look at the lack of conscience in the explanation. Well, it secretly helps and you get a proper reward.
I received an elixir as a reward for clearing the last quest and saved it.
I got one more reward by eliminating the wish-granting pond and achieving an additional condition.
[Lilka’s introduction]
-Lilka wandering around the tower!
-She has a lot of connections and many NPCs are in debt to Lilka.
-If you show them your letter of introduction, even uncooperative NPCs might help you.
It’s an introduction. It’s quite appealing to be able to get help from an uncooperative NPC.
Because not all NPCs are friendly.
I’ve put it away in my inventory. I’ll probably use it later.
Now all that remains is… … .
“Are you going to do that?”
“It’s better to do it when there is someone there to watch over you.”
“I thought about it carefully. If I do it alone and get tangled up, it’ll be difficult.”

Lilka, who escaped from the licker, grabs me.
Lilka enters an empty room and uses her skill.
[Mirage (S) Lv.MAX] [Silus (S) Lv.MAX] [Golden (SS) Lv.MAX]
The room itself was locked to prevent others from entering and adjusted to prevent sound from escaping.
They also use mirages to make people wandering nearby escape to another place.
That’s understandable. You might end up in trouble if you drag in people around you for no reason.
One last thing to do before going up to the 71st floor.
“Then open it?”
“Ugh. I never wanted to see you again.”
[Title, Dimensional Merchant Shines!] [Dimensional Shop Open]
-Jiiiiing
Use the dimensional store.
Unlike other times when Kang-chong is being used officially, experienced Lilka is there to assist.
The space becomes distorted and a dark vortex is created.
Up to this point it was the same as before.
[The Dimensional Merchant appears.]
“Hahaha! Thank you for opening the Dimensional Shop, customer!”
A man appeared.
He was wearing clothes of unknown origin and had what looked like tentacles on his head.
A race I’ve never seen before.
“No, who is this? It’s Lilka!”
“Karka, long time no see.”
It seems like the two know each other.
There’s nothing strange about that. Before entering the tower, Lilka was wandering around the dimensional rift and working as a dimensional merchant.
“Serve the customers first, idiot.”
“Oh, sorry. It’s been a while since I’ve seen you. Let’s see. Since you’re with Lilka, I’m sure you know how to use it roughly.”
The guy with his head slightly bowed looks at me with shining eyes.
“Oh my, you are a dimensional merchant too! You are a newbie. How precious, this is.”
“Can I see the product list first?”
“Yes, of course!”
As he spreads his arms in an exaggerated gesture, a list of dimensional shops appears.
As expected, it was full of miscellaneous items. I quickly looked through the list.
The Dimensional Store is a place that makes and sells things that don’t exist. There must be some good stuff there. Let’s take a closer look.
“Ahem. As I said, there is a restriction that you must trade once you choose. Please think carefully before making a decision… .”
Lilka also gave advice with her hand on his waist.
“This! Give me this!”
“hey!”
I just picked the item.
