Regress and Eat

097 Tower (2)

It was late at night that Senter made contact with Arthur Clifford for a short and unpleasant encounter.

“That's you, isn't it? ”

Missing questions front and back.

He waited a few days instead of contacting Aurora the day it spread.

The meaning of this interval is to use their own informational channels to obtain relevant information.

‘There is a problem within the Korean government. ’

I smiled and said.

“It's not up for auction. ”

The old man's face distorted in the hologram.

I get a straight shot at saying I saw the wrong guy.

“Would I have contacted you because I wanted to make fun of that? ”

It means I don't intend to increase my value by manipulating quantities and prices in front of multiple buyers like [Flame of Energy].

I nodded and said.

“We agree on that, too. ”

Even if these items are released in such a way, the urgency is low, but the resident's purchasing power is high or must be installed preferentially in selected areas.

Any treasure can get into the hands of politicians, into the hands of politicians, into the hands of capitalists, and into the hands of capital logic. Multiple incidents with overlapping sides.

“This item is something I will personally control in the future. ”

I have information about what kind of dungeon will explode in my head, but I'm one body and I can't walk around smashing them all.

Depending on future memory, I consider some regions to be dangerous, but if I have to buy time, I intend to solve it in a foreign country.

“Of course you won't teach me how to get there, will you? ”

“It doesn't mean anything to me right now. ”

I don't have a viable Awakener even if I tell them how.

Other than me.

“If you say so. Got it.”

The centers simply reassured me in one word and no more questions about the source.

However, I did not seem to have the regrets for the other part entirely.

“Even if you ask me if I want to relocate to the United States now · ·. ”

“I have no idea. ”

“Tsk.”

I kicked my tongue as if it was a real shame.

“You can't just keep installing it on Korean soil, can you? Because it's your home. ”

“No, it was actually kind of a show that covered the whole territory this time. ”

“Yes, it's been a spectacular show. ”

He says it sounds interesting.

“Korea's internal reaction was hot. You're the hero of the Old World, right? I can't believe the rumors are repercussing this. ”

Then he adds.

about external reactions this time.

“Of course, even though the other countries' movements have not been announced. ”

You nod.

The South Korean government is currently suffering because of doors coming in from all over the world.

The Celestial Dragon and I officially stepped back and entrusted the repairs to the state.

But there was, of course, a request that flew to me that did not filter there, and there was only one of it that led to the interview.

The centurion puts that name on his mouth.

“Arthur Clifford stopped by your house today. ”

The information on the black market in Korea, led by misevolution, seems to be quite useful.

The guild leader of the Martha Tower, who had never been exposed to the media, was clearly exposed.

“That's right.”

Centaur frowns.

“Careful. There's not enough flattery to describe that bastard." If you say it right in front of you, you have to start doubting. The circle is one who has no interest in anything but his full ego and material gain. ”

Oh, you're quite accurate, aren't you?

Arthur seems to have accumulated notoriety since his time.

If you're afraid of going to the Generator, you'll be distracted by the traffic.

By the way, the British inner Hunter Guilds are unified into the Horse Tower, and the Awakened can't be counted. In the latter known realities, most were abducted, tortured, and killed according to Arthur's instructions. His brutal way of dealing with the opponent's fears has been known in his past life.

“Very well. ”

Centaur asked me what kind of conversation Arthur and I had today, and I told him the truth.

Then his face became distorted.

“I don't feel so good. Which means he targeted you publicly. ”

I thought about it for a moment, but then I said,

“If you want, you can make a fuss on the English side. Arthur and the horsemen in Korea must return to England in a hurry. I can create an urgent situation that no longer requires your attention. ”

Utilizing his people hiding all over the world shouldn't be impossible.

I know it's out of concern for me.

I shaken my head resolutely.

“No, please don't do that. ”

Because then my plan would be wrong.

“· · · · · · · · You have a plan. Well, you're not the one who's gonna get beat up. ”

He lights a cigar and adds a note with the smoke.

“I just got this information that Arthur headed to a guild called the 'Sword’ a few hours ago. Maybe meet the guild leader. I don't know what you two are talking about, but... ”

I shrugged.

“Well, wouldn't you have told me? ”

He breathes one deeper smoke and says as if finishing.

“Adam Abrams, are you still in the Celestial Dragons? Make good use of him. You might know more about the Tower Hunter's abilities than I do. ”

The centers again tell you to be careful and end communication.

When the hologram connected to the handset disappears, I turn my head.

Nate was looking at me, in a blind spot, from Senor's point of view.

Bury with colorful eyes.

“By the way, when did Adam get here? ”

It was the last telecommunication that could take several more days after Beijing's separation.

I shrug.

“I don't know yet. Then why are you looking for Adam? ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

Nate mutters, avoiding his gaze.

“There's something you promised me. ”

It seems he still hasn't given up on his grand ambition to implant the Giant Mantis Mane Mane fork in his arm.

I lay down my cover.

“Hey, Adam hasn't explained the transplant technique in detail yet. Can't you just have the surgery if you think it's dangerous? Guild Master's instructions.”

“Tsk.”

Then I got to the point.

“Anyway, how about now? It's been an hour since Arthur and Seo Mungee broke up. ”

Information received by the generator was good in terms of accuracy, but less immediate.

It can be speculated that Black Market spies cannot see the situation in real time.

On the other hand, I received a live broadcast of Arthur's meeting with Seo Mungan through Nate.

Nate is still tracking them through the Undead in the Shadow, even after the two of them are separated.

It's the information he gained through his family.

“Someone named Arthur. Aside from the people who are already in Korea, I called a few more people from England. All of them above SS grade. Some of them can't make it to the dungeon expedition, so I'm guessing there's about 10 of them. ”

Below SS, about 10.

It's locked in my mind and tells me if Nate saw anything else.

“Huh? We're having a hologram and a tactical meeting! ”

So a little more time went by.

I got some rough information about Arthur's plan.

In fact, the most important part at this point is this.

“So, Arthur stays in Korea? ”

Nate was positive.

“Yes, he said he was waiting for his men to come. Here.”

Okay. Okay.

“Well done.”

After you send Nate back.

I took my armor and took the sword into my hands.

One of the purposes of my great show was to keep Arthur Clifford in Korea.

I don't think I'm going back to London today, so it's a success.

At least a few days time will be earned.

Whew!

You activated the [Gate of Hope] to create a blue gate.

-\ tPlease enter coordinates.

Telepathy flows from the artifact, and I enter coordinates.

-\ tCoordinates confirmed. A 12,000 Mana Stored Core is required to transmit one species to the destination entered by the user.

I frowned.

It is more expensive than moving to the dimension of Botark.

‘But it's not hard enough. ’

When you insert the Mana Core, waves follow the blue swarm of light.

-\ tYou can enter.

Immediately after throwing yourself into the radiance, the next teleportation flows.

-\ tPlease specify the transfer location within dimensions.

The trick of the Martha Guild to ‘craft’ Magical Skill Cards of Class S or higher on a regular basis is in Shepherd's Dungeon, where they are exclusive.

Also, according to the rules inside the tower, Arthur Clifford, the guild master, accompanies him when entering the Shepherd II dungeon.

He was suspicious and persistent, Arthur.

‘While Arthur is in Korea, other guild members cannot enter the Shepherd II dungeon! ’

An empty house without an owner.

I was on my way to rob that empty house.

‘But you don't have to go to the gates of England to get into the dungeons. ’

For now, this item cannot teleport in dimensions.

For example, if you want to go to Shepherd in the U.K. right now, you have to cross over to a different dimension and move the coordinates to Shepherd when you return to Earth.

But I didn't mean to waste my core like that. Not at all.

Also, even if the dungeon is empty, it is obvious that the guild members are guarding it in front of the gate, but there is no need to go directly to the front gate.

If we go to Morro, we just have to get there, right?

-\ tPlease specify the transfer location within dimensions.

[Door of Hope] Watch a video of a floating destination for me

In exchange for paying for 12,000 Mana cores, the destination was of any intermediate dimension.

This is the middle dimension of the Shepherd II dungeon. ’

When dealing with ministry spirits, all the dimensions located near the Earth were recorded on the map.

Among them, there were intermediate dimensional coordinates that connected dimensions, not intact dimensions such as the Earth or the Botar world.

If the dungeon is connected to Earth, of course it remains in my memory.

“Show me the gate that opens in this middle dimension to the Earth. ”

The screen changes immediately.

Certain areas bounded even within the middle dimension.

It was in Shepherd's second dungeon.

‘What a spacious place. ’

The dungeon boundary is unusually wide compared to other dungeons.

After attacking the dungeon, the horsemen expanded the dungeon and secured more monsters on the perimeter instead of closing the gate with the key they obtained.

After it was repeated five times, the dungeon grew to about half the width of the Korean Peninsula.

‘Let's see. ’

Somewhere in this vast area I need to go.

“All right, send them over there! ”

The light flashes and the surrounding scene changes completely.

‘Infiltration Successful! ’

Wide plains.

An unfamiliar masonry architecture stretches across the horizon.

It was inside Shepherd's Second Dungeon.

I do not hear an automatic message because I did not cross the gate.

So I asked him myself.

“System, Dungeon Information! ”

Strings appear right in front of you.

1. Level: A

2. Maximum number of entrances: 200 (current entry: 0)

3. Clear Condition: Monsters Within Boundary Annihilation

4. Time to evolution: 27 days a year 10 hours 41 minutes

5. Status: Very unstable

‘Good, you're here. ’

I checked two things.

First of all, there are currently zero entries.

Entry personnel count only those who have entered through the gates opened on Earth.

Just as aliens who have crossed the dungeon boundary are not counted on that number, neither am I counted for moving directly through [door of hope] dimension to dimension.

‘Anyway, it's a huge scam item. ’

The gate to the Earth leading to this dungeon will be guarded by the guild members of the Tower at this moment.

Regularly check gate status messages for unauthorized intruders.

However, no matter how many times you check this, the contents will be the same.

Now that the guild leader is out of the way, we have to assume that no one has entered.

‘And one more thing. ’

There's one more thing I saw in the message.

‘You were right. Very unstable.'

I'm going for it.

No matter how hard I've worked for these bastards in my past life.

‘These bastards have the same pattern of thinking and acting. ’

The secret to putting the steeple to its current position, Arthur's desire for a Class S Magic Card is to leave his handshake behind and close the gate instead. He left a bomb with no idea when it was gonna go off.

In a ‘very unstable’ state, the dungeon collapses immediately, but some dungeons are strangely long lasting.

‘In the meantime, I was fortunate enough to keep it this way for at least three years. Closer.’

But it couldn't last forever.

In the end, what happened?

It exploded.

Since the dungeon was expanded five times and widened enough, the monsters that gathered were also enormous.

I couldn't afford a hunter in the U.K. alone, so I invited a national hunter.

I was secretly sent with my guild member, [Successor's Eye], because all the strange monsters that could not be found in the eyes of ordinary Awakened were in the barrels.

He was dispatched to the battlefield during his time of battle, so he overcame the crisis several times.

It was hard enough to mobilize me, the guild's secret weapon. Shepherd's second dungeon brakes.

‘I'm Arthur Clifford for a reason. ’

When I think about it, he died too easily compared to what he had done in his previous life.

He was one of the first to lose his life in the first place.

“Rrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

Thinking about it, I'm walking through a dungeon, a weird kind of architecture.

Monsters that don't fit the landscape at all rush in.

A horde of Orcs running with blood feet in their eyes.

You raise the handle of the sword.

Pablo!

Purple swords squeeze the air and the Orc's body froze and bled out.

Every time you swing your sword, monsters pile up around you.

“Rrrrgh!”

However, the peculiarity of this dungeon is already noticeable.

The density of the monsters was this dense, but there were no traces of corpses in this town other than what I made.

It doesn't look like there was no battle. It's clear that the Guild Member of the Martha made just a few scorched marks everywhere, but I made only the monster carcasses that should naturally lie next to them.

It meant one thing. Hunting is done here, but I've collected all the useless Orc carcasses and put them somewhere else.

Of course, there's a reason for that.

Shhh!

Among the monsters that flocked, there were some strange things I had seen in my past life. The kind that is not captured by ordinary human eyes.

I see a waving Mana pattern in the air instead of relying on physical vision.

[Successor's Eye] spills the blue beam of light you recognize.

Shh-shh-shh!

The arrow of light pours into the air along the stabbing sword.

“Seeeeeek."

In a place where there was nothing, an iron-blooded monster appeared.

Flying Lizard, pierced by wings, cries out in horror. Originally, the ability to melt naturally into the surrounding landscape like a chameleon burst into camouflage. The body that was covered in green, white, black, green, and shaded surrounding buildings flashed like a broken traffic light.

Phew!

The lizard's neck flies with a light swing of the blade and its body falls to the ground.

These monsters were easy to catch, but difficult to hunt unless you have a special ability or magical skill set.

You turn your eyes away from the corpse that fell on the stone floor and give the lever strength.

“Do you feel that? ”

‘ · · · · · ·. ’

From my point of view, it was a monster who didn't need to draw his sword to decide and hunt.

There's a reason why you keep wielding the sword.

This guy is like a compass that will show me the way in this dungeon I've never seen before.

“Fuck you? You feel that? ”

‘ · · · · · ·. ’

A moment later, the disturbed psychopath replies.

‘· · · · · · · Yes. I can feel it. That unpleasant energy. ’

There is only one energy that makes a corpse with the attributes of Mahjong feel unpleasant.

Great beings beyond the veil of mortality.

Immortals who are regarded as "gods" by many civilizations and are close to absolutes who show their true presence in the world after the tutorial ends.

With their energy.

“You can feel the sacred power in there, right? ”

I continue to walk in the direction the corpse reacted.

There was a treasure that the guild of the Tower wanted to protect to the end, and failed to get it out of the dungeon.
