Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 70 A familiar name?

Hidden Quest. I was silent for a while.

There are many different types of quests. There are compulsory quests like Rilka gave me, and there are sudden quests that appear in the form of events.

The only quest I got on the first floor was literally just one quest.

Then what is the Hidden Quest?

“It’s a quest that can’t be accessed in the normal way.”

It’s not hidden for nothing. It occurs only when strict conditions such as special conditions, situations, and will of the system are met.

It’s literally a hidden quest.

I hadn’t heard of such a thing being on the 15th floor.

More than 10 years have passed, but the tower is still overflowing with unrevealed things.

Good news for me. There are so many things you can take care of.

“Let’s take a look.”

“To the ark.”

Deokchun nodded.

A quest that no one else has done. If it goes well, it will help me.

Of course, I don’t mean to blindly accept it…

[You can’t read this quest unless you accept it.]

“Huh?”

I frowned as I tried to read the information.

no where is that

At least I have to tell you what it is so I can make a choice.

I tried to give strength to the eyes and express the authority.

[Hidden Quest information cannot be viewed.]

It didn’t work properly. It seems to be weak when it comes to toxic quests.

How is it? I pondered for a while.

“let’s do it.”

made a decision

I bet they won’t give you quests that you can’t break.

There are powers and infinite coins. Stop doing it until you can’t do it.

It’s already hard to see that the specs are on the 10th floor.

If I can’t wake up, I’ll assume that other people can’t wake up either.

[I accept the quest.]

[The mark of heresy is activated.]

[The purification begins.]

–

A change occurred at the same time as receiving the quest.

A sign of heresy that could be seen all over town.

The stone doll glowed and rapidly increased in size.

1 meter 2 meters 3 meters.

It ate up the surrounding soil and stones and grew to the size of a fairly medium-sized monster, and its eyes radiated.

“Ooh ooh.”

A cry that seemed to come from the depths of the cave.

thick arms and legs. A flat head and a body that wants to be able to attack properly.

[Frenos Guardian]

– A divine weapon created by the Church of Fire.

– Breathe fire until you purify heresy.

Dozens of sleek golems rose to their feet and began spewing fire toward the village.

powerful firepower. The outer wall of the building shattered every time the guy who shoots hot flames swung his fist.

“Uuuuuuuuu!”

“Gaaaaa!”

A group of undead gathered as if to counterattack.

The guys who were aiming for me started attacking the Guardian all at once.

Skeletons gnaw golems and zombies scratch them with their claws.

A pile of dirt falling little by little.

Appearance restored at the same time.

The body of the guardian turned red as if the undead clinging to it were annoying.

-Fuhuaaaak!

Under the command of Pulse Reach, the undead that covered the Guardian exploded at once.

The zombies that were consumed by the flames emitted by the Guardians screamed and danced, and the Skeleton, whose torso was blown off and only its head remained, made a regular noise like a metronome.

cooong.

Until the guardian’s feet turn it into powder.

An unexpected battle between two groups.

I stared blankly at it.

What’s the situation? I’ve seen monsters fighting each other because of territorial disputes within the field, but I’ve never seen an all-out war with hostility like that.

No, it wasn’t normal for me to attack each other without paying attention even though I was a human being.

Basically, monsters prioritize attacking people.

sudden change. The cause is probably.

“Do you think it’s because of the hidden quest?”

“The ark.”

The problem is that this damn quest window doesn’t pop up.

Wake up on your own is this? At least you shouldn’t have to give me a hint.

Anyway, it’s an unfriendly place, this guy’s tower.

is there any star? If there are no teeth, gums. I have no choice but to roll my head hard and break it.

If you don’t want to do it, there is also a way to meet the minimum clear conditions and go up.

Because it’s a portal, you can make it anytime. It’s a last resort anyway.

He sighed and cleared the situation.

“Only one thing has changed. The proof of heresy has been activated.”

I thought it was just a stone doll, but it was a divine weapon.

I’ve never heard of a form like that… But aside from that, there are more towers that haven’t been revealed.

“Guardians and undead are hostile. Since they said something about heresy, it must be that the undead are heretics.”

At least while alive.

Right now, they are just undead with rotten bones and flesh.

In other words, the Church of Fire classified the villagers as heretics and sent a guardian to turn them into a sea of fire.

For the sake of purifying heresy.

“It wasn’t wiped right away. I told you to choose.”

I recalled the information of the stone doll.

[Sign of Heresy]

– A mark and warning given to those judged to be heretics.

-Choose within two days. To be converted or to be purified.

conversion or purification.

Seeing that the village was in this state, it seems that he had no intention of converting even if he died.

Did you have enough faith?

Or did he burn the village even though he converted?

Let’s pass this part because we don’t know.

Two keywords left.

“Unjust vengeful spirits and massacres.”

The information I saw at the entrance of the village, the unfortunate ghost.

Judging by the situation, the undead were the ones who died unjustly.

I don’t know why they were massacred, but it seems certain that they were driven to heresy.

The result was a massacre.

“As soon as I thought of the keyword massacre, a hidden quest occurred, so it must be certain.”

Those who died after being buried alive became skeletons.

The dead who are driven to be witches have pulse positions.

People who were burned to death became charcoal zombies.

And they must have fought against that Guardian?

okay. Let’s get rid of those guardians for now.

Since you said it was unfair, if you deal with the people who caused it, there will be a change.

-Tadak!

After making my decision, I ran towards the Guardian who was slaughtering the undead.

Golem type divine weapon.

It spits fire out of its head and smashes everything with its 3-meter tall body.

I immediately exercised my powers.

Attacking the golem is easy. At least in theory.

“We need to get rid of the nuke.”

My eyes tickled and my star-gazing eyes were activated, and I could see the nucleus in the guardian’s body, albeit blurry.

Evidence of heresy. The stone doll is the nucleus.

its location.

“pit of the stomach!”

-Quaguaguagwang!

It was in the middle of the torso.

As he ran, his outstretched fist passed through his back.

A pile of dirt bursting out and a crackling doll touched at the tip of a fist.

– Perseok!

The stone doll splintered and the Guardian stopped moving.

The flames, which seemed to spit out endlessly, died down, and zombies and skeletons dug up the remains of the Guardian, as if there were a lot of things that had accumulated in the meantime.

Skeleton That guy is chewing and swallowing.

Even if I swallow it, I wonder why it comes out again, but I’ll let it go if the anger is relieved.

“There has been no change yet.”

I looked around.

There are still many Guardians. I just dealt with one object, but a total of 14 Guardians were making the village a mess, and the undead were only pushed back despite the push of the pulse position.

It’s strange.

No matter how much zombies and skeletons are 1-star and the 2-star Pulse Witch is not specialized in combat, this is too far behind even if it is pushed?

“Even the Guardians are at most a 2-star level. Not even 3 star.”

That’s how it felt to fight until now.

The undead win in terms of numbers. There’s no way I’ll lose this one-sidedly.

“Oh, it doesn’t match.”

Undead are weak against divine power.

Guardian is a divine arsenal.

It was obvious, but I didn’t realize it.

Why…..

“Originally, the undead do not attack the target with divine power.”

I avoided it if I avoided it, but I didn’t launch a blind attack like that.

What made the undead move?

“Eck!”

– Kwaaang!

The moment when I was paying attention to them.

The Guardian slammed his mighty fist.

I rolled aside to avoid the attack and used my skill.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 7]

A guardian that explodes at once.

As soon as I saw him fall, I jumped up.

The Guardians, realizing that I was a threat, opened fire.

-Flame

roaring through the bridge.

It’s hot. It’s a good temperature for a half-bath.

Fire resistance has risen a lot, so ordinary fire is no longer scary.

It has to be this much to be scared.

“Show me, Deokchun.”

“Geek!”

-Fuhuaaaak!

Deokchun, who was on top of his shoulder, inflated his cheeks and spewed out fire.

Attribute obtained on the 10th floor. flame.

From Deokchun’s mouth, fierce flames that were incomparable to those of the Guardian came out.

Destructive heat that can’t be hot.

The Guardian, which had been clumped together with soil, was baked at once.

A joint that instantly stiffened.

Taking advantage of the sluggish movement of the guardian, he thrust out his sword.

–

I was able to accurately slice the nucleus.

The Guardian, who had stopped maneuvering, lost its shape and collapsed.

“Aaaaa!”

“Oooh!”

A crowd of zombies screaming as if cheering rushes towards them.

To help other fellow undead to wipe out other Guardians.

If you look at it this far, there’s nothing special about it.

“It seems like they are gradually gathering in the center of the village.”

“To the ark.”

Even the undead, which seemed to move randomly, had a direction.

I just didn’t notice because the guys who were spread all over the town moved all at once.

Same goes for Guardian.

It was advancing from the outside of the town to the inside.

Just in case, I went up to the building and checked it, but I didn’t see anything wrong.

“There is something in the center of town.”

The most destroyed place is the center of the village.

In other places, the form remains, but only there is neat as if everything has been erased.

All that remains are fragments of buildings that have been crumbled to ashes.

and.

[I feel a weak divine power.]

Holy power!

The power of God, classified as heretical, remains.

I was certain that there would be a key to unlocking the hidden quest there.

-Uuuuuuuu

“Huh?”

I looked down at my hands.

A frost flame sword that vibrates slightly.

I’ve never had anything like this before.

Are you responding to that divine power?

“I must go.”

Kicked the collapsed building.

A few Guardians got in the way, but it wasn’t difficult to break through.

– Kwaaaaang!

It was enough to blow off half of the body with a firebomb and destroy the core with a sword.

I don’t know if it was a high-ranking golem, but the soil-based one didn’t have that good durability.

The undead also attacked the Guardian, but they were not interested in me. –

I was able to enter the center of the village only after neutralizing the 4

Shaaaa Guardians.

The air has changed. I flinched at the strange feeling.

“Is it cool?”

really. There was a coolness that I had never felt while passing through the 10th floor.

It wasn’t to the point of being cool, but I felt refreshed when I came in from the place where it was burning everywhere.

Where does the cold energy come from?

I searched around like I was digging the ground.

–

Something caught on the tip of the sword.

[Dig (F) Lv. 4]

Dig around that spot to reveal a statue.

The upper body was broken and no trace could be found, but a base plate about 4 meters in diameter and part of the leg were recognizable.

[Ice Goddess Prelia Statue]

-The Temple of Ice and Fire. A statue modeled after the goddess Prelia, who was in charge of one axis.

– The Church of Ice disappeared by the Church of Fire, but a few followers remained.

– Hyaltin, the divine kingdom that existed in ancient times. Does anyone remember that it was originally the Cult of Ice and Fire?

– Weak divine power remains.

new information was obtained.

Ice Goddess.

The Order of Ice and Fire.

Holy Kingdom Hyaltine.

“Wait a minute, Hyaltine?”

Shaking my head, I widened my eyes at the familiar name.

Hyaltin. Wasn’t that the name attached to the ruin key I have?
