Episode 98. I climbed the stairs in front of on
the 30th floor .
It was already the 29th stairway up and officially the last stairway.
‘Finally ca up.’
30th floor.
The last layer where the screen is shared.
Hence, the layer known as the end.
The scenery you see as soon as you climb up is a green landscape with a gloomy atmosphere.
All kinds of plants and moss that you wouldn’t think were inside the tower were growing all over the place.
And in the middle was a huge tree.
‘Monster Tree Glacier.’
It was the boss of the 30th floor.
Its size was larger than Grani, the boss of the 20th floor.
It was difficult to kill at once because of its size, and it was the standard to attack step by step according to the strategy.
‘It takes too long to go to the standard way.’
The longer it takes, the more variables there are.
The standard wasn’t always the safe way.
I knew this would happen and there were things I had prepared from outside.
‘Single-use catalysts that I made while making Lucia’s cure.’
It was contained in a potion bottle, but it was clearly a catalyst used to make magic circles.
Catalysts don’t differ greatly from potions, so I quickly created them with my gifted potion talent. I guessed the size of the magic circle and made almost 100 bottles, but just in case, I made a little more.
that pole.
Noticing that an intruder had entered the room, Glasir awoke from a deep slumber and began to stand up.
– Oooh.
Glacier, who has a huge wooden body but a human-like head, announced in a low voice that he had awakened. At the sa ti, I could see his small roots stretching out in all directions, preparing to run amok.
I opened the lid of the potion bottle I had prepared and began to circle around Glacier while spraying the catalyst on the floor.
Whiiik-!
Chun!
The root ca flying like a whip and attacked .
I didn’t stop running and blocked it with my sword, continuing to spill the catalyst onto the floor.
Whirik-!
Whiiik-!
As the number of roots flew in increased, I burned the roots with sparks with an aura.
While spilling a total of 8 catalysts, I finally went around the largest outer circle.
The outskirts were easy, but the problem started now.
‘The closer you get to Glacier, the higher the difficulty will be. But to draw the magic circle, you have to go inside.’
Instead, victory was guaranteed the mont the magic circle was completed.
Since this thod was devised in the ga in the first place, it was a strategy that had been used continuously, so the performance was certain.
Besides, it didn’t matter if he was beaten according to the rules if things didn’t go well.
Since both magic and swords could be used, the option was not one.
phut! phut!
As I approached the inside, there was a sound of sothing exploding, and monsters began to erge from Glasir’s body. The monster that flew like a spore was an annoying monster that stuck to it.
“Sigh.”
Kuaang-!
I fused the sword wind with the wind cutter and exploded it.
The sword wind that flew at an overwhelming speed swept away the flying spore monsters.
I couldn’t kill all of them, so so of them, who were just blown away by the wind, started crawling on the ground. The speed was slow, but the number was not negligible, so I moved my body diligently.
‘Is it a quarter now?’
Still, at this speed, it’s good.
I wanted to draw a little faster, but Glacier’s check was quite tough for that.
Whiik- Bang! Quaang!
Whirik – Boom!
As I got closer and closer, Glacier’s movent intensified, and dozens of roots brushed past . I evaded most of the attacks while running and approached Glasire’s torso while occasionally waving my sword to block it.
-Kiririk.
Slowly, new monsters began to appear.
The greenish monster was the sa size as the goblin, but it looked a little closer to a plant, and it ca close to and started to self-destruct.
Quaang!
I had already expected it, so I created an Earth Shield to block it, but I frowned when I saw the self-destruct monsters constantly being created near Glacier.
‘I have to overdo it a bit.’
Even the spore monster was cumberso, but when the self-destruct monster joined in, he was distracted.
In addition, after a little more ti, new monsters will be mass-produced, but before that, the magic circle had to be completed.
‘Once it’s completed, skip the 2nd and 3rd phases at once and go straight to the last phase.’
The final phase won’t be too long either.
It will probably be over with a few sword strikes and a few rounds of magic.
Of course you have to be careful.
– Oooh.
Glacier cried softly.
It sounded like a question, but it must feel strange.
In Glasir’s eyes, I’m just running around the outside of him and spilling a strange liquid on the floor.
Perhaps thanks to this, his root attack was gradually loosening.
‘I didn’t expect this.’
Of course, it was unexpected in a good way.
In the ga, the attack gets stronger as ti goes on regardless of my actions, but in reality, I can call off my guard like this.
Before I knew it, two-thirds of the magic circle had been completed.
This was the hardest part, but I had to stick to Glacier’s body.
―Ooh oh oh.
As expected, getting closer than this made even the vigilant Glasire nervous again. Glacier wielded huge branches that looked like human arms, which he hadn’t used before.
Whoops.
As if performing an acrobatics, sotis I stepped over it, and sotis I blocked it with Galaksur, and continued the magic circle.
I was distracted enough to lose my soul, but if I made even the slightest mistake, I would be eliminated, so I raised my concentration to the maximum.
―Kiririk!
Quaang!
Whoa-! thud-!
After breaking through all kinds of obstacles, the magic circle was finally completed.
Still, I succeeded by focusing only on evasion and blocking, but I wouldn’t have been able to do it if I had to attack Glacier in the middle of this.
‘Now I have to step back outside.’
The activation of the magic circle had to be done outside the magic circle.
It’s a matter of course, but if I activate the magic circle here and now, I’ll get caught up in it, and it’s the sa as committing suicide.
Getting out was quick as it was enough to run in a straight line.
―Ooh ooh ooh.
Glasir let out a mysterious cry as he saw barely approaching the torso and running away.
Don’t worry, I’ll make it hot soon.
When I stepped out of the magic circle, few roots reached .
I lightly burned the roots with an aura of fla and touched the ground where the magic circle was drawn.
‘It’s a little big magic circle, but I’ve already practiced it a few tis outside.’
It wasn’t that I was just researching a cure outside.
I was thoroughly preparing for the Tower of Modras.
I drew all the magic circles, but the arrangent of mana was another issue.
It was possible to deal with the spell with a magic circle, but since it was such a large magic circle, it took so ti to arrange the mana.
Whiik-!
Pod!
A root flew in and scratched my cheek as I barely turned my head.
While arranging mana, there was no choice because it was impossible to move.
Even after that, small root attacks ca in, but they stopped to the point of causing slight scratches, and finally the magic circle started to glow.
Weiying.
The activation of the magic circle was imdiate.
Glasire, who was staring at the shining floor with a curious look, tried to move by shaking her body, as if she felt an unusual magical energy.
But it was too late.
The magic circle that covered most of the 30th floor built a simple but gigantic pillar of fla.
Aaaaang-!
Roaring!
―Ooh ooh!
Glacier’s shriek-like scream filled the cavity, and the magic circle, which had not lost its power, continued to emit pillars of fire.
‘The operating ti of the magic circle is 30 seconds.’
28 27… … 3 2 1.
Tardak.
I ran forward as soon as the pillar of fire disappeared.
I had to attack now, when Glacier was at its weakest, so I could clear it a little more comfortably.
‘I’m sure I won from the mont I activated the magic circle.’
I do not relax my tension even for the sake of unknown variables.
It’s a rule of thumb to stay vigilant until you achieve your goal.
Glacier, charred and disfigured, cried out in pain, unaware of my approach. Soon after, I rode Glacier’s body up, but he still didn’t seem to care.
I quickly climbed to the top of her head, stepped on the middle of Glacier’s head, and put an aura on my sword.
‘It explodes at once.’
The aura of Galaksur began to change.
It’s an aura similar to what Master once showed.
‘A sword that explodes.’
I haven’t even tried blowing the sword wind like Master did, but it was possible to drive it in and explode it in this state.
Kwajik!
The sword pierced Glasir’s blackened head.
Only then did Glasir, realizing that I had climbed onto his head, tossed over and extended branches to .
However, it was already too late from the mont the sword was stabbed.
Kwaaang-!
The shock ca with a huge explosion.
A huge explosion that even I, who use it, would be damaged by the recoil.
I was blown away by the impact of the explosion, but I was able to stop the fall by driving my sword into Glacier’s torso.
Looking up, I saw Glacier’s head, which had been slashed with the shifting sword, had been shattered in half.
It was easily broken because it was cooked to a crisp by the magic circle.
– Ugh.
Glasir died at the sound of that single desperate cry.
I ca downstairs, gently wiping my bloodied face from Glasir’s attack and the impact earlier.
I saw a staircase.
‘I did it.’
Of course, I was confident because I challenged with higher specs than ever before, but it is also true that I was nervous because unlike the ga, not a single mistake was tolerated.
I drank the rest of the potion and applied it to the wounded body.
I had no intention of delaying.
I imdiately stepped on the stairs to the 31st floor.
* * *
“I woke up… … .”
“So what? Did you break the Tower of Modras?”
“Nonsense.”
The empty lot in front of the tower, where there was more buzz than cheer, was more cluttered than ever.
It would be correct to say that now there is no power to be surprised anymore. For those who initially thought that they would not even be able to break the 20th floor, the current situation was unbelievable.
Starting from the 20th floor, every ti I went up one floor, I spewed out astonishnt, but now it seed like a strange phenonon that didn’t even feel anything.
“Not bad.”
Minus’ sister, Greta Morhai, who was looking at the screen, said with interest.
She was not in a good mood because she was forced to co and watch sothing she didn’t want to co, but he seed to know why her brother had forced him to co.
“Still, I like soone bigger.”
“Let’s talk for a mont. I’m not forcing either.”
At Minus’ words, Greta nodded.
The 25th floor was the end of even Maximin, who was called a true monster.
If so, it is only natural that Adrias, who had conquered the 30th floor, would look forward to seeing how far he would grow.
As Minus looked around, the emperor’s n, the duke’s servants, and scouts from various groups ca to his eyes.
‘Old Bahat is there, but Mr. Sinclair hasn’t co.’
I heard that people from other countries are also planning to visit, but there will probably be a decision by that ti.
Even Minus himself had no desire to let go of Adrias.
“But why aren’t you coming out yet?”
One of the students raised a question.
Only then did people realize that Adrias, who had broken up to the 30th floor, had not co out.
And that fact has created certain assumptions in the minds of many people.
‘The 30th floor… … Isn’t it the end?’
