Chapter 43 – Tower (2)Hansoo who had sent off Sangjin looked at the tower in the distance as he got lost in thought.
Hansoo clicked his tongue.
To either move in small groups or in large groups.
Normal clan lords would try to move by combining all their forces.
But this guy was different.
With such thoughts he splits up his clansmen and then mixes them in between other adventurers.
People who had died from the Dark Mad Lord’s small killer squads had numbered over a thousand in the past and these killer squads had monopolized around 1000 people’s worth of artifacts and runes and had reached a point where they could openly massacre people and no one could do anything to them.
There was no need to look out for his image because he had transformed himself, but he hadn’t done this to just kill normal adventurers to turn them into runes.
‘It won’t take that long.’
Hansoo thought of this and that and laughed coldly as he slowly walked towards the tower.
After a long walk the people inside the Tower greeted Hansoo.
Hansoo made a befuddled expression at the words of the man in the front.
Since he was a different person he had to make a separate name.
Hansoo laughed as he spoke his name.
“My name is…”
“Is that the tower…”
How hard had it been getting to this point.
At the same time he glanced at the giant tower in front of his eyes.
Many entrances existed in all directions but not many differences could be seen.
Chulam chose one of them and then headed in carefully.
As he followed the tunnel in, a giant circular plaza came out.
Chulman checked his surroundings instinctively.
And above the entrance there were various numbers.
Some big ones even said 80.
‘What is this…’
But that wasn’t the only peculiar part.
‘9 people.’
Whilst Chulman was on guard the guy in the very front spoke out as he looked at him.
“…?”
What was the reason for 9 strangers to group up.
“Why are you gathered so?”
“I’m called Suhan, well… since you’re alone I can guess to some extent. There’s really nobody you can trust huh?”
Chulman frowned at these words.
Correct.
That there was really nobody he could trust.
He didn’t resent it.
Since he was like that too.
“But what do we do. It seems we have to group up again no matter what. You’re the tenth person. It said we needed one more person.”
While Chulman was making a confused expression, the fairy appeared in the sky.
And at that moment a small map had appeared within Chulman’s hands.
‘This is…’
Information about the hundreds of doors nearby was written on it.
…
<10 Man Room: Roropin’s Sharp Hook, Circlet of Kiladerape…>
<47 Man Room: Kelpin’s Sub Equipment, Sword of Akin…>
<80 Man Room: Divine Wrath, Sword of Lightning…>(Closed)
<80 Man Room: King’s Sword…>(Closed)
By pressing it he could even read descriptions about the options on these.
While Chuman made a flustered expression the fairy smiled as it spoke.
Chulman nodded his head.
Clan Lord.
50 to 100 people moved about in groups, how did they expect them to win against that.
It was an island that could hold 100 people but the whole time while he was there the island was basically controlled by the Lord who lead 50 people.
“I was watching from above but phew. How would the people traveling alone live from such sorrows? So we prepared this for you. This way you won’t be in a disadvantage because you lack numbers right?”
What the 2 Man Room and 3 Man Rooms meant.
‘Clearly… if you were to do this then the chances of going against clans go down substantially.’
Since it was that dangerous but had enormous rewards to go with it.
‘This is what they meant when they said when they were waiting for me.’
But Chulman looked at the fairy with an extremely suspicious expression.
How could they be.
But at that moment he heard Suhan’s voice calling at him.
“…”
‘Well… Since they could enter by gathering for a small time it would’ve been filled up quickly.’
The 10 Man Room was the least burdensome.
‘There’s no way that it wouldn’t have set something up.’
As 10 people got into the room the doors made a grinding noise as they closed.
And soon the small room with 10 people moved about aggressively as it started to dig deep into the tower.
Kyaaaaak!
Chulman cut off the neck of the Beast which was charging at him.
‘Let’s see. Did he say we should get the things from whatever we killed ourselves?’
At the same time he was inspecting them the whole time.
Maybe it was because they were cautious of each other or they had decided that it wasn’t the time for them to fight each other but a clear rule was set between the 10 of them.
‘As I expected… there’s a difference in levels.’
Since it looked like the 7 others could not beat these three.
The four including himself were at a decent level.
‘Thankfully there isn’t anyone who wants to take over because they’re strong… and the girls are fighting well too.’
Being a female did not mean they were weak.
But then a thought came up in Chulman’s head.
Of course he didn’t mean the difficulty itself was hard.
Just like the name of the 10 Man Room, the difficulty was set so 10 people needed to work well with each other in order to clear it.
The difficulty played a huge role to the fact that they were all keeping by the rules while advancing forward.
Since a person would have separate thoughts when they were in dire situations or had leisure.
But because of this they felt much more at ease.
‘The fairy didn’t set anything up?’
“It seems like all ten of us could survive this way? Let’s stay strong!”
‘Yeah. Let’s first focus on advancing forward.’
If they could combine their forces then doing so was the best.
And have their own circumstances.
‘Damn… I’m not sure if I can find Suhee.’
He had to survive and find his daughter who he had separated from during the ticket stealing wars.
His daugher Suhee and him, the two of them weren’t strong enough to gather three ticket so they had to get a third random member and go up with three tickets.
It had been a month since he had been separated with Suhee.
He could only search fervently.
A clearly different place in comparison to the jungle-like environment around them.
“It seems like we’re almost there, Old man.”
A girl who was swinging the sword diligently besides him.
‘Did she say she was Minhee. Hoo…Suhee is just about that age too.’
Because thoughts of Suhee sprang up again by looking at her.
Minhee shook her head as she spoke.
“…”
Chulman grinded his teeth.
There might be somebody who was looking for a decisive moment.
There might not be any evil people.
Chulman, who had been lost in thought, flinched as he looked at the location where they had arrived at.
The doors which were laid in front of them weren’t just one.
‘This doesn’t feel good.’
Chulman and the others frowned.
