Stuck in the Tower Chapter 483

Episode 483 Take it all out

Sometimes I think about that. How do people act when they are not honest or have something they want to hide?

Usually I tend to hide, and even if that’s not the case, there are times when I just want to curl up in a corner and not talk to anyone.

I can’t say I’ve never experienced that before. I think everyone has experienced it at least once after the cataclysm.

Things like pushing someone next to you to get the monster’s attention in order to survive, or being rude to someone who is starving right now in order to save food.

It was a time when I learned how selfish and cold-hearted people can be in harsh environments, big or small.

Of course, there were some people who shined even during that time.

‘Most of them were short-lived.’

That’s why. It seems like people who are a bit cowardly and in some ways selfish, but who haven’t completely lost their humanity, have survived. If humanity is a complete mess, then that is something to be rejected.

This is Fractal Park, a place where the spirit world and the fairy world merge into one, and it’s a mess. Looking at this absurd environment, I feel like I’m recalling memories from my childhood.

Anyway, what I want to say is… … .

“There is a bit of a pattern to hiding.”

Where would a person with a cold hide? A place where no one can see them?

That could be the case, though I don’t think so.

Aren’t most troubles something that happens between people? In other words, unless you’re a psychopath or sociopath, you have an attachment to people.

The problem is that the way we express it sometimes leads to criminal acts.

Even if it’s not necessarily that, if there’s something you care about, you tend to want to watch it or see it with your eyes.

For example, like this.

-Crack!

“Khaaak!”

I dug my foot into a gentle slope. I dug a hole in the ground and covered it with dirt to create a camouflaged shelter. The one I hit screamed.

A location where you can see the contract door where people are gathered, where you can secretly watch and squeeze in among the people, and also get a glimpse of others when they come.

The level of camouflage was so high that even superhumans would pass it by without looking closely, but it was not possible for me.

“Lick it.”

“okay.”

I put strength into my feet and pinned the guy in the ground so he couldn’t escape, and in the meantime, Licky took out the item.

[Compression (S) Lv.10+]

-Kudududuk

“Khuuuugh! Let go!”

I bound him with cursed equipment. Every time I see him, I feel that the skills that Licky uses are also very useful.

Even while his mind was wandering, Lick’s hands were quick.

“If you keep moving, one of them will go out. Do you understand, you punk?”

“To this extent, I, aaaah!”

Within, he had completely restrained his limbs. The worshipper he had just caught was also a superhuman, so he could probably break items of a certain level with his strength, but this was a bit different.

“Nyangpun is really amazing. He even thought of selling something like this.”

“I’m also happy because I’m buying it cheap.”

Not only is it a curse that forces you to wear it, but the binding parts are so sharp that if you forcefully move them, your wrists or ankles will be cut off.

It almost looks like something made to torture someone who can’t move. In reality, it’s a piece of equipment that was made but failed. But isn’t it true that even dog poop can be used as medicine?

How nice it would be if it could be recycled like this. If I fail at making equipment, I should sell it to a licker.

Let’s say we’ll do that slowly later.

“Where are the rest of them?”

After taking a picture of the guy’s face with my camera skills, I asked for the location of the other worshippers.

The guy who was gaping shook his head.

“No, I don’t know.”

“Oh, that’s too bad.”

-Phew

Without hesitation, I stabbed him in the heart with my sword. It was only natural for him to die, since I stabbed him with my soul ripped apart. The bastard looked at me with eyes that seemed to say he couldn’t believe it, then turned to dust and disappeared.

I wonder if there are any coins left. I’m not sure if you go to a safe zone when you die on the upper floors. The rules are a bit different from before on the upper floors. There’s also a separate waiting room between chapters and scenarios.

“If you upload a picture to the community and find him alive in the safe zone, you can arrest him and tell him he’s George when you meet him in the chapter. Please.”

“You say it yourself… Ugh, that’s enough.”

The licker who had been looking at me with a pitiful expression manipulated the community and then glanced at the place where the worshipper was.

“As expected, Gongble Gongble, there is no mercy.”

“There’s no use in holding on to those guys and hanging on. Those dishonest guys won’t be believed no matter what they say.”

“But the one who was dishonest was you, the community member. Haha!”

Why are you suddenly hitting me with facts? You seem like a coward.

Even if you flinch, the excitement is just a lick. You retrieve your sword and raise your head. It’s a good start. You’ve already caught one person.

Now there are only four worshippers left, and they have already looked around the area near the Gate of the Covenant.

We’re chasing them in pairs. The Fairy Club decided to check out the area connected to the Fairy World. They were active in the Fairy World until Chapter 3, so they should know that area well.

The rookie group including Oh Jing-hyeok also moved to a place they had guessed, and Lick-jak and I also decided on a direction. We had someone to guide us.

“I didn’t know I’d be hanging out with a firefighter.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen anything sparkly or moving around.”

Katran, the lightning spirit who has been with Lickjak since the first chapter, just like Prone, the fire spirit who has been with me.

Is there anyone who knows the spirit world as well as these people? And that’s not all.

“I like the way you handle things, climber. I’ll try my best too!”

“Isn’t that just doing it as usual?”

“You’re trying to get excited, aren’t you? You’re a brat. Tsk.”

“Oh, if you keep doing that, I might get burned too.”

“Do it. Who stopped you?”

The fire spirit and the lightning spirit. Both are considered destructive attributes.

It wasn’t intentional, but it’s a powerful ally. The relatively quiet Pronedo seems to have become more active when paired with Katran.

I think if I stimulate it gently it will give me strength.

“Let’s go over there first. There are some good places to hide.”

Prone, who had been bickering with Katran for a while, pointed to one side. It was a pretty good place, at the edge of the fire zone, where the heat wasn’t as high as it was swaying.

Let’s start by looking over there first. I took a step forward.

* * *

This incident has raised several questions.

Because the cult first used climbers to cause organized disruption.

There are two main things to note.

First, how do the Climber Cultists contact and communicate with other NPC Cultists?

I heard that NPCs have connections with each other. They are subordinate to the tower, so I guess they can get away with it, but they are not climbers.

I wonder if they’ll make contact like seagulls. I don’t know how they’ll make contact either.

‘All the climber cultists I’ve met so far have been found on fairly high floors.’

Maybe they watched from afar and chose people who had some talent and a desire to rise to the top and tried to seduce them.

Next, the second one is… … .

Climbers are in contact with other cult members.

In a way, it might be natural. We have to recognize each other as allies.

Especially, if you are a high-level hunter, you can create a private room in the community and use it, so it will be more convenient.

This incident was also carried out in an organized manner.

Didn’t the orders come down from the higher powers of the worshippers, and didn’t they come together and act in accordance with the timing? And now… … .

“Damn! I think I’ll catch you nicely! I won’t catch you as easily as the others. At least I’ll cut off one of your arms!”

Look. As soon as the rumor got around, the worshipper came running towards me, foaming at the mouth.

So far, I’ve caught two worshippers. I killed them all cleanly. I heard that they found one member of the rookie group that Oh Ji-hyeok was in and took care of him right away. You must have heard that news.

Isn’t that strange? How did you contact the dead guy? Even with coins, it takes time to revive. There’s a delay between being revived and coming back to your senses.

I think this part needs to be mentioned.

“You thought nothing would happen after what you did? You’re a funny kid.”

This time, Licky stepped forward without me having to.

He approaches with brisk strides. I wonder for a moment what this guy, who likes to attack from a distance, is trying to do.

The tense worshipper quickly swung his sword.

-Taat

As if he had expected it, Licky twisted his body to dodge and swung his arms.

Oh, that pose.

“Great cheek slap pose!”

-Kwaaaaang!

Hmm? Wasn’t it? Did they just fire a missile?

It wasn’t the sound of someone slapping my cheek, it was the sound of something exploding.

As expected.

“Hmm, this is pretty useful too.”

Licky looks down at his palm and makes a satisfied expression.

It looked like it was a thinly compressed object attached to the palm of the hand as a sticker.

How ridiculous. You keep talking about how I have no mercy and that I am too lenient, and then you throw a bomb in someone’s face?

As if he had read my gaze, Licky shook his fist.

“What are you looking at, Mr. Lee? I moved it myself so you could rest comfortably.”

“Ugh, that’s enough. What I just did looks good for sneaking around, but I guess the destructive power needs to be increased a bit?”

Thud. He kicked the squirming worshipper who was lying on the floor.

Lick also pouts his lips in agreement.

“I think I compressed it too thinly. I’ll have to keep using it and find the right balance.”

“Try it hard.”

-Shoooooooo

I used water on the worshipper’s face.

When water was poured on him, he came to his senses and made a strange noise. At the same time, his face crumpled and he showed his murderous intent.

-Ouch

I just slapped the bastard in the face. If he had come to his senses, he should have figured out the situation first. He’s sticking his teeth in first.

Is he a bit of a lackey? Or is he just a guy who fell for the enticements of his followers?

“You guys must have some kind of connection, right? How do you guys communicate?”

“… Is that what you wanted to ask? I thought you were going to ask who ordered you to do this.”

“I guess it’s Yuheda. We’ve had a bad relationship since before.”

The guy shut his mouth, wondering if what I said was correct.

Good. Still, he’s more open to talking than any of the guys I’ve met so far.

Of course, if I judge that the words are strange, I will immediately delete them. I do not have the skills to check for lies, and the worshippers are always ready to f*ck me.

“If I answer the question, will you spare my life?”

“Of course. I promise. If you answer my questions honestly, I won’t do anything.”

“Don’t be a jerk. Anyone beside you can kill me.”

The guy looks up at his licker and glares at me.

Ah, I got caught. Ugh. He winked at Licky, licking his lips again. He sighed softly and shrugged.

“Okay, okay. I won’t touch you either, right?”

“I can’t believe it just by words. The contract… … .”

-Kwaaaaang!

The compressed ball thrown by Lick flies next to the bastard and explodes. The shrapnel hits the back of the bastard’s head as well.

Gulp. The guy who swallowed his saliva finally becomes quiet.

That’s why I’m telling you not to deal with these guys. If you give them one thing, they should be grateful. Why do they keep asking you to do something for them? If someone saw you, they’d think you were their boss.

“Do you understand the situation? Do you think we’re doing this because we want to have a serious conversation with you? Let’s treat each other well when we’re appropriate, okay?”

Advertisements

Licky also seemed to have the same feeling and kindly explained it to me.

The guy who finally understood his situation knelt down politely. It meant he was ready to talk.

Let’s see. Then… … .

“First, take out everything you have.”
