Stuck in The Tower
Chapter 769

Episode 769: The important thing is the king

first.

When Bedrock Vaaluze rose into the air, it seemed like a black sun was rising.

The territory created by his presence and power was ominous and huge in itself.

So what am I like now?

‘sun.’

It was the sun that burned itself and set the whole area on fire.

Heat and waves bigger and more powerful than any explosion that had ever occurred turned the sky upside down.

-Coooooooo!

There was no loud noise or harsh wind.

It was an echo of destruction that extended, eroding everything within its territory and terrain.

One realization.

‘Just because something explodes doesn’t mean it will explode.’

what I want.

It’s about focusing on the destination.

In the end, an explosion was an act of exploding something, and what I wanted to explode was.

“you.”

It’s Bedrock Vaaluze that is embracing it.

For the first time, anger appears in his eyes.

“…too much arrogance!”

I guess we can’t just blindly get hit.

Even in that brief moment, his power moved.

[The concept of revenge reveals its cunning!]

I, who should be safe from revenge, also took the aftermath head on.

okay.

It seemed like it would be like that.

‘I expected this much.’

That’s why I wasn’t embarrassed.

It just adds strength to the arms holding him.

-Cow!

Shock waves hitting the whole body.

A feeling of being torn apart from within.

It was a terrible, but no less certain, blow that swept away the King of Worshipers.

-Kuaaaaaaa!

The earth shook as if celebrating the newly born sun below.

The ground, unable to withstand the aftereffects of the explosion, rises up, cracks, and cracks, as if a transparent giant is dancing and stepping on the ground violently.

This is true even though the distance has increased.

No one with feet on the ground could stand.

[The Concept King looks down at the kneeling one with satisfaction.]

[The Concept King looks at you.]

It may be a bit unexpected, but the concept he had looked at me.

[The eye watching the SSS-level power star turns on its twin wicks.]

[Concept Half-Gol glares at the king.]

Well, my side didn’t stay still either.

‘He’s dead.’

With that thought, I lost consciousness for a moment and then came back. [

Return of

the Dead ( SSS) Lv.7]

A body that is rapidly restored.

Return of the Dead, which was activated when returning from the edge of death, gave a buff.

[The title of the Demon Workhouse’s opponent is shining!]

The title facing a powerful enemy has also strengthened its buff.

A sudden increase in power.

I wanted to gather more strength, but I don’t have the time.

-Pasasasasa.

Because the guy with cracks all over his body moved as if a terrible drought had hit him.

Incredible vitality.

No, is this the power of concept?

I’m thinking of giving him a shot before he fully recovers.

‘There are some things to check.’

[SSS-level power, the unyielding sword spirit flashes!]

[Sword Strength]

[Cutting (SSS) Lv.MAX]

[Soul Tear (SSS) Lv.9]

[Slaughter (S) Lv.MAX]

[Enchant (S) Lv. .MAX]

[Aurora Beam (SSS) Lv.MAX]

Overlapping skills.

There’s one more thing.

[Hong Ye Cham (SS)]

A thrust with all his might.

Phew.

The rainbow pierced his heart, leaving an afterimage.

-Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!

Five-colored rays spread out, expanding their range.

Bedrock Vaaluze, whose chest has been cut open, cranes his neck.

The dead skin cells covering his entire body fall off, revealing his appearance.

“It would be a shame.”

Even though his heart was pierced, he remained calm.

Instead, he just looks at me with serious eyes.

“It exceeded my expectations, but you still don’t deserve it.”

It had an ambiguous meaning.

It means that you still can’t use shame to go up to the 100th floor.

[Concept: The king looks at you sadly.]

[The person who will kill the king needs to be qualified to do so.]

To kill the king, it means that I am not qualified to stand on the same level as him.

I thought it would be something like this.

Why didn’t the NPCs on the 99th floor even think about catching him?

Because in order to catch him, it was necessary to be on equal footing.

“You’ll have to see that.”

I wonder if I don’t know that.

Before I knew it, a crown was on my head.

[Dancing Master’s Crown (B)]

The grade and effect are unremarkable, but it has one special power.

‘Qualifications to be a king.’

I have two crowns.

Magnarok’s crown is held by Nyangfun.

All that’s left is this one.

Since I met the qualifications, I thought something would work out.

[A king without anything is meaningless.]

[You have to have even a handful of forces to be worthy.]

“This can’t work.”

It didn’t work.

It wasn’t that disappointing.

Because I was secretly thinking that it would be like this.

The qualifications given by the crown are all about the system.

On the other hand, the king I have to deal with.

[The conceptual king looks pitifully at the person who has the qualities of a king.]

He is a conceptual king who follows the interpretation of the bastard, not the system.

The story is that meeting the king’s conditions also has its own standards.

The guy’s hand slowly rises.

The thorny blade stretches out and grows into a blade.

“He who is not the king cannot kill the king.”

He then extended his sword towards the thorns falling in front of him.

Because I had no intention of just letting it happen.

“Come back when you are qualified.”

[Concept change changes revenge into confirmation.]

The thorns that should have been in contact with the chaos sword became blurred, and a burning pain was felt in my chest.

pang.

A thorn got stuck in my heart.

This kid is quite petty.

You stabbed yourself in the heart just because I ate it.

“Those who have completed the concept will not be able to go beyond this. Try to ask for my permission.”

“go away.”

Wow.

I kicked the guy.

The thorn stuck in my chest is pulled out and blood gushes out.

-Whoa!

I fell to the floor helplessly, but I was okay.

I checked everything I wanted to check.

I roughly expected it to turn out like this.

I don’t regret dying.

I had infinite coins anyway.

More than anything.

“I achieved what I wanted.”

Why did I fight and fight with that guy?

Reinforcements.

I waited for them to come.

To tie him up.

In order to save Smile Cap, which has survived until now.

“this.”

He also groaned briefly, probably realizing that he had made a mistake by being distracted by me.

Consciousness fades away.

then.

“Let’s meet again.”

It’s time to move on to the next step.

* * *

“Hwaap!”

I woke up making a sound that I couldn’t tell if it was a scream or a scream.

bed.

The 96th floor is a safe zone.

“Wow Mr. “It’s been so long since I died that I can’t get used to it.”

“Yes.”

I scratched the back of Deokchun, who was lying next to me, and helped her up.

Although his body has fully recovered, the shock and pain of his death still linger in his mind.

It would have been nice to get my body and mind in order, even just a little.

[Mental Protection (SSS) Lv.MAX]

I’m already beyond the point of being shaken by something like that.

I sat down on the bed and turned on Community.

A certain amount of time passes when you are resurrected after death.

It’s even weirder if you don’t have time to revive someone.

“I wonder what happened?”

First of all, we succeeded in capturing the guy.

Just before I died, I saw reinforcements coming in.

I wouldn’t have been able to run away because I left out the uncertainty.

‘If we fight head-on, there will be no answer, but the reinforcements won’t know that.’

Since he had more experience fighting this guy than me, he wouldn’t have reacted complacently.

Just keep a reasonable distance and observe to make sure it doesn’t disappear.

-Tiring. Tiring.

Notifications are ringing one after another.

I did something and noticed that the members’ chat room was noisy.

[Hair loss on your head]: Gongdu! Gongduuuu!

[Mean Meow Punch]: Alive! Are you alive?

[Lick the top of your head]: If you don’t answer, they’ll reveal that you’re a public figure?

“This licking guy?”

[Petit Gongdu]: Gongdu… I hate licking…

[Licking the top of my head]: Did you see it? Are you saying it will come out like this?

[Mean Meow Punch]: Wow! Gongdu Summoning Art!

[Hair loss on your head]: I thought you were still alive! LOL!

[Mean Meow Punch]: If you don’t show up, I was going to spread the word that Gongdu is a very pretty and pink girl.

[Lick the top of her head]: Oh? Is that a good method too?

Nyangfun is also quite bad.

Although he was talking lightly, when I looked at the chat room log, that wasn’t the case.

“Hey. “It’s been like this for almost half a day.”

“Geueheh.”

The first chat I posted to check my survival was 14 hours ago.

How much time has passed since he died?

In reality, the time may have been longer since the battlefield would have been cleared.

If it’s long, it’s long. If it’s short, it’s short.

Not only the members but also other guys were checking my survival in the community.

I wanted to say something, but the nickname was this slut.

Since there is no one active under the nickname Evil Eye, there are people who doubt my identity.

“For now, I’m insisting.”

I was at a loss for excuses, so I just cursed at the system and said I got banned from chatting.

Anyway, since it is a community, you may be blocked.

Or not.

Let’s just skip this point.

[God Bless]: The arrangement is finished. Although there was a lot of damage, we were able to observe the King of Worshipers.

[Sexy Guy]: Brother! sister! The coronation ceremony is over, but where are you?

[Smile Cap]: I almost fell over this time.

“It looks like it was resolved safely.”

I checked other chats and saw a general picture of the situation.

Successfully observed the King of Worshipers.

That doesn’t mean you can completely capture him.

Just making sure they can’t leave without permission.

It meant that if a crazy guy runs at you, a fight is inevitable.

‘It’s not like there’s no damage.’

The guy went back with his admirers.

I couldn’t kill him because he wasn’t qualified to be king, but it gave me a shock.

Fortunately, Smile Cap also appears to have survived.

Tuk-tuk. I tapped my fingers.

In the end, the qualifications of a king are important.

“To qualify as king, people are more important than territory.”

Concepts are like living creatures.

It’s just that you can’t see it and you don’t know how it moves.

In that sense, the king’s concept was that he talked a lot.

A king must have at least a handful of power.

The proportion of territory was almost non-existent.

If you think about it, the entire 99th floor belongs to the tower, so why claim it as your own land?

“Looking at the battle alone, I think we can compare it in some way.”

At least it was confirmed that there was damage.

Of course, this isn’t his full power.

He didn’t move to kill me.

How I use the concept.

It was more about making sure he reached the desired level.

What if we fought with all our might from the beginning?

‘It won’t be easy.’

Despite his strength, he moves calmly even when injured.

By collecting concepts, we can repair wounds.

The most difficult thing is that it uses a variety of powers.

‘There is a term.’

As I observed during the battle, even though he was a guy, he didn’t use the concept without any restrictions.

Getting revenge from uncertainty. Confirmed again.

The concept was not changed continuously.

Maybe it takes time to change to a different concept.

It’s just an expectation.

So how to attack it?

“A monster is a monster. Even when he was injured, he didn’t react much.”

Even when he was hit in return or his heart was pierced, he didn’t struggle in pain.

His body is no different from a vessel that contains concepts rather than a physical body.

It would be similar to those who collapsed holding out gift boxes made of body parts.

Well, it may be a bit of a shock, but it’s not that meaningful.

That guy only flinched once.

‘When you have absorbed the concept.’

That was the biggest reaction he showed.

Should I say that it is a side effect of absorbing too many concepts?

It seems like a good idea to aim for that part.

Of course, in order to do that, you must eventually gain the qualifications to be king.

Just then, Nyangpun will soon ascend to the throne.

how will we do it.

Suddenly I had a good idea.

-Quaang!

“What if you come back?”

I kicked down the door and Lilka came inside.
