Let's Manage The Tower

(10) Tower strategy

I spent several days preparing my expedition from the day I decided to attack the tower.

At least in the field up to the tower, food can be procured locally by hunting, etc., so tents and cooking tools are provided.

We traveled to the tower by dragon and eventually investigated how to attack the tower.

Because there was little information about the Central Tower.

As far as I know, there are seven towers in the continent. All of them are gathered in the middle of the continent.

One in the middle of the continent. It means that there are six towers that surround the central tower. Regarding the inside information, it was not collected enough to say anything.

So I decided to aim for the central tower. It looks like a flying dragon.

After all, there was no food trouble on the way, and it took about ten days to arrive at the destination tower.

"It's huge..."

It is the first voice of the audience that arrives at the foot of the tower.

From a distance, everything felt like a "tower".

I was just a little concerned that I couldn't see the summit because it was glowing, but that was all.

After that, it's hard to catch a coach, so finally that one? Oh, I thought so.

And now he looked at the wall of the tower in front of him, and he just stood there in vain.

The height was the same, but there was no width at all.

Though I have never actually seen the Great Wall of ○ ○ in the land of Zangguni on Earth, I think it comes to mind because there is so much distance that I can't see the edges.

I can't stay stunned forever, so I'll go inside.

The entrance does not have a door or the like, but a large mouth is slightly open.

From there, a line came in.

"... Tower?

"... the tower?

"... the tower..."

I was supposed to be in the tower, but when I looked up, the blue sky was spreading.

It seems that Ko and the others can fly without any problems, so I decided to take a ride and investigate.

As a result, no more towers fell inside, and the grasslands in the blue sky were found to be the first layer of the central tower.

Why was it found to be the first layer?

It's easy.

While we were investigating, we politely found a transfer gate that says "second floor entrance."

Incidentally, it was found to be a metastasis gate because Kouchi had investigated it earlier.

Looking through the transfer gate, the same view as the first floor was spreading.

Investigate on the same coaches.

There appear to be monsters on the ground, but they pass because they are riding a dragon.

I checked with Mitsuki, but the monster around the tower was stronger.

In the same way, I found the entrance to the third floor, so I went through the transfer gate carefully so as not to just say "Yes, hello (monster)".

Then the grasslands (hereinafter abbreviated as "grasslands") are again in the same way.

I figured it out again after attacking the tower.

As I've known before, Kouchi & Mitsuki are cheats.

Most of the monsters that came out of the tower were not opposed.

As expected, when I went to the upper level, I could no longer crush them with a single blow, but there was no one who could beat the two collaborators. While properly protecting the study aids.

Even the dragons that appeared on the ninetieth floor or later were quickly defeated, but only a dry laugh came out of the examination. However, it was repeated many times, and I got used to it in the end.

There was a trap along the way, but even the level of instant death was definitely avoided by force tricks (magic).

It is for the record that the level of Trap of Study Aid (Evade + Discovery) skill has increased.

As a result, I was in the tower all the time and the sense of the date became suspicious, but I was able to attack the tower for quite a few days.

Below is a summary of what happened just before the attack.

the first layer to the tenth layer

Grasslands. Occasionally there are forests.

Fantasy classic low-rank monsters like Slime and Goblin appear.

After walking through the transfer gate on the 100th floor, it was a small room, and through the door of the room, there was a slightly larger room with three large crystals floating.

I just checked the surroundings with my left eye.

Name: Magic Crystal

Remark: Crystal that stores magic. Each layer of the Tower is connected to a Crystal of Divine Power.

Name: sacred crystal

Remark: Crystal that stores sacred powers. Each layer of the Tower is connected to a Crystal of Divine Power.

Name: divine crystal

Remark: A crystal that stores your powers. Connected to each layer of the Tower, Magic & Holy Power Crystals.

Name: Tower Operation Control Board

Remarks: To control to operate the tower. Each command can be issued from here.

The three of them approached the control board and the crystal (flying dragons are returning to the ground) while checking each one.

There was a change in the room when it came near the control board to some extent.

Lights light up in a dimly lit room. At the same time, Kouhi and Mitsuki are alert.

"I have confirmed the Tower's tactics. Whoever wants control of the tower, put your hands on me. Anyone who doesn't want to control the tower can go outside at the back transfer gate."

I heard a voice from the control panel.

I signaled to Kouhi and Mitsuki that they were still vigilant.

"Kaiseki?

"It's okay.... maybe."

The voice I just heard was Asla's voice. Unfortunately, it felt like a recording, so I don't think I can speak directly.

"By the way, are you sure you want to do this yourself?

I will check with both of you now.

In any case, I do not believe that Kaiseki was instrumental in the tower strategy.

"Naturally."

"Who else is there besides Kaiseki? Kaosuke-san and I are the only ones who can convince you."

Kaiseki was pushed by Mitsuki and approached the control board.

Before touching the control board, look back and see the two nodding.

I never placed my right hand on the control board.

"Contact confirmation to the control panel. Registration of Tower Rulers has begun... Communicating with each Tower... Completed. Please register your name as a ruler."

After being a little lost, Kaiseki decided to take a different name.

Because I felt that it was easier to move.

Tengu

"... registered in Amamiya. Congratulations! Now you're all set to sign up to rule the Tower."

This led to the birth of the first ruler of the Central Tower in history.

This will be communicated by the rulers of the towers on each continent, who have already completed their offensive.

As we learned later, the other towers will be notified if the tower is newly attacked or if the ruler takes over.

I don't have any way of knowing how to study at this time.

On this day, the history of Earthgard began to move again.
