Kalbaram repair.
Their best weapon, the sharp feathers, are heavy and not suited to flight.
This was the reason why they could not be seen in other fields and could only survive on this cliff.
A strong, sharp wind on the cliff.
Thanks to this, they were able to fly even with their heavy feathers.
But what if moisture accumulates there?
“Phew-!”
The bastards fell down unsightly onto the bridge.
It seemed as if he had desperately broken his wings and fallen onto the bridge, rather than falling into the dark abyss.
Of course, some of the entities were falling down there, screaming pitifully.
The bastards sighed in relief at having survived the fall onto the bridge.
“This is the gap!”
“attack!”
Phew!
An eagle that could not fly could no longer be called a beast of prey.
Those who were considered the most dangerous monsters on the cliff lost their lives so meaninglessly.
“Oh, these feathers are going to be quite useful! They look great as arrowheads!”
Soon after, the battle ended with Go Chang-seok recovering the whereabouts of the fallen men.
Originally, I was supposed to be attacked by the Kalbaram Repair until I crossed the bridge.
Perhaps because they are so intelligent, not a single monster has attacked them since they witnessed Seun’s shower.
In that way, Se-un’s group was able to cross the bridge very comfortably.
And finally.
“wow…….”
“Mr. Se-un, that is… … ?”
“As you can see, it’s a wall.”
The view on the other side of the cliff came into view.
A wall stretched so long that its end was unknown, extending all the way to the horizon.
It wasn’t the level of fence the twin sisters had ever built before.
The wall. It was reminiscent of the Great Wall of China, made by piling up square stones.
Inside, there was a tower that rose so high into the sky.
The wall was like the last line of defense to protect the tower.
‘In reality, it’s the exact opposite.’
Anyway, this was just a tutorial. It was just a place to select players who were qualified to enter the tower.
In other words, what the wall was blocking was not an external enemy, but the player. The ‘tower’ you see in front of you was built by transcending causality in various dimensions.
There was no way the tower would be attacked.
‘Until the outer comes down, that is.’
Se-Woon shook his head as he recalled his memories before his regression.
Right now, we need to focus on the tutorial rather than the outerwear.
-‘Tutorial Chapter Four – Attack’ begins.
– Break through the wall and enter inside.
-If you defeat the castle lord, you will be granted ownership of the castle until the end of the fifth chapter of the tutorial.
“Ownership of the castle?”
The content of the tutorial was exactly as Seun remembered it.
The goal was to wage a siege war, take possession of the castle, and use it to successfully complete the fifth wave, the defense war.
As Yu Seo-ah was looking at the wide castle walls and thinking, Se-woon pointed ahead.
It was hard to see because it was far away, but if you strain your eyes, you can see that there is a castle gate there.
“Come to think of it, there are gates at regular intervals?”
“Yeah, and… … .”
When Seun manipulated the system, an information window appeared in front of people’s eyes.
[ Towering watchtower ]
Category: Sex
Grade: C
Description: A castle with strong walls and a unique watchtower, making it ideal for archers to demonstrate their power.
Ability: 1. Arrow Supply – Arrows are automatically replenished at regular intervals and the bow’s reload speed increases by 20%.
2. High Watchtower – Increases the surveillance area and bow attack range by 20%.
“This!”
“It’s information about the castle. Probably, each visible castle gate has a different characteristic.”
“Then, we need to properly select the castle to attack.”
“that’s right.”
Yu Seo-ah’s understanding was perfect.
Castles are not just simple strongholds. As you can see in the information window, each castle has its own unique abilities.
For example, the ‘Towering Watchtower’ you see in front now has great power when there are many players using bows.
In addition to these, there are countless castles in the fourth chapter, such as castles for warriors, castles for magicians, and castles with high defenses.
“Then what kind of surname should we look for?”
“Well, I guess I’ll have to look into it first.”
A golden castle flashed in Se-Woon’s mind.
‘Golden Castle.’
The most powerful and difficult castle in Chapter 4.
Unfortunately, I don’t know the location.
Before returning, Seun had only joined another clan and barely managed to enter a nearby castle. All he had heard was a rumor about a place called the Golden Castle.
so.
“Jeongpil-ah.”
“Yes, brother!”
“You go to the other side and investigate what castles there are.”
“Yes! Please trust only this Park Jeong-pil!”
“Yuseo-ah.”
“yes.”
“You take your clan and go to the right and investigate the castle. Since you have more time than the others, don’t attack.”
“Okay. But what about Seun-ssi?”
I wanted to capture every castle I could see before the other players finished their tutorials and came up.
However, the number of castles that one clan can occupy is only one.
‘This must be why the manager issued the pass.’
Before returning, Seun had climbed to the 92nd floor of the tower, so he knew of the existence of the manager.
After the Hidden Boss Monster’s conquest was over, the reason for providing additional rewards was this.
It means that you should stop bothering other people’s tutorials and quickly move on to the next chapter.
Even if you arrive at the fourth chapter early, there is only one castle you can capture, and after capturing the castle, you have to wait with your fingers crossed until the next wave.
however.
“I’ll follow slowly. You go first.”
“Another hidden piece? Are you going to look for something like that?”
“No, that’s not it.”
Se-un looked up at the ‘towering watchtower’ ahead.
Since Seun had already conquered the castle once, he had a rough idea of how the inside of the castle was structured.
Among them, there were also rewards given to players who captured the castle.
so.
“I’m going to raid the warehouse.”
Before the other players arrived, I planned to go burglarize the house.
* * *
-The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[Telepathy]
– One of the common magics used by wizards is to communicate with others through mana.
Before parting ways with the clan, when Se-woon tried to act unilaterally again, Yu Seo-ah showed signs of worry more than usual. The others were the same.
It seems that Seun’s anxiety grew as soon as he arrived in the new environment, as he was about to disappear.
Because of that, Seun took out the few remaining mana stones and carved a new magic circle.
A communication device. A kind of mobile phone. No, considering the limitations of distance and the method of use, it was an artifact closer to a walkie-talkie.
It is a low-level artifact that is not used much because communication between different floors is impossible on the tower, but in the current situation where the walls will only move around, it can be said to be the best means of communication.
-Ah, brother! Can you hear me?
“Have you found anything yet?”
-No, it’s just so interesting! This is totally a cell phone, right? Hey, if you have something like this, why didn’t you take it out sooner! I get so bored when I’m out on reconnaissance alone…
Stop.
Se-woon manipulated Mana to block contact with Park Jeong-pil. Somehow, I wondered why he contacted me so soon after breaking up.
“Yoo Seo-ah, is everything okay over there?”
-Yes. We plan to scout until the sun completely sets and then take a break.
“Yes. I’m sure no one has had a proper rest. There won’t be any particular threats here unless they attack the castle first. You can rest comfortably.”
– Mr. Se-un, you should also rest a little… … .
“I’ll just clean up a few places and go back. Don’t worry.”
-Okay, be careful!
“huh.”
Se-Woon, who had finished communicating, put on his wolf cloak.
With the communication seat, it will be much easier to understand the situation, such as reporting an emergency or finding out a location, even when you are far away.
Seun, who had been rolling around on the ground a few times while wearing a cloak, began to move towards the castle wall in earnest.
‘The towering watchtower has a wide detection range, not high detection power.’
Seun wasn’t just covering himself with dirt now.
Kilker’s Stealth Technique. A technique used when attacking goblin villages, allowing you to crouch down and become one with the land.
We move towards the walls, very slowly and surely, in step with the speed at which the sun sets.
The moment he was discovered, hundreds of arrows would rain down from the walls and watchtowers, but he had no worries. Seun believed in the stealth skills of Kilker and the power of Mammon’s treasure.
“Change. Change.”
“What’s for dinner?”
“Don’t expect anything. It’s just a mess.”
“Ugh! That damn weed. We’re not even herbivores.”
Thanks to the enhanced hearing from Mammon’s treasure, voices could be heard from the top of the castle walls.
He had a high and thin voice like a child who hadn’t yet reached puberty, and although his speech was short, it sounded quite natural.
I activated the snout of the Nol and focused on my sense of smell, but I couldn’t really smell the monster’s peculiar stench.
Se-Woon, who had been thinking of numerous monsters, was soon able to guess the identity of the enemy.
‘A halfling?’
Halfling. A race classified as a dwarf race, they are about half the size of humans.
Although they did not have high physical abilities, they were a race known for their agility and dexterity, and their hunting skills using bows and traps.
These are soldiers who are truly fit for the ‘Tower of Heaven’.
but.
‘Then I guess there’s no need to worry.’
A halfling’s sensing abilities are similar to those of a human.
I was worried that they might be a race with a keen sense of smell or hearing, like a Nol or Kobold, but if they were a Halfling, I thought they would be able to enter without worrying about being detected.
fault!
Seun put his finger into the crack of the stone in the wall.
It was a very small gap that could barely fit half a fingertip, but Se-un had the power of the ‘baboon of the Balatan Cliff’.
I’ve climbed rocky mountains with slopes that go beyond a right angle, so there’s no reason why I shouldn’t be able to climb the castle walls.
Because of the shadow cast by the setting sunlight, no halflings were able to spot Seun.
As I continued to climb the wall step by step, I soon reached the end of the wall.
However, this is where the real problem starts.
Based on their senses of smell and hearing, they estimate that there are hobbits standing guard on the walls at intervals of about 10 meters.
Killing them is easy, but if you get caught doing so, things will definitely get more troublesome.
If you keep killing them recklessly and end up conquering them, you will end up belonging to the clan that built the ‘Towered Watchtower’ for no reason.
Besides, there were still many castles to clear, so I didn’t want to waste energy here.
so.
-Did you hear that? I just heard that today’s menu changed to meat.
“Huh? Really? Meat?”
“… … What are you talking about all of a sudden? Meat?”
“I just said today’s menu was meat!”
“Really? Meat?”
“No, you… … ?”
“… … ?”
While the two hobbits were tilting their heads, Seun jumped down over the wall.
How to use telepathy.
It might be okay for beings like goblins or orcs who are not proficient in language, but for beings like halflings who are proficient in language, it is a pretty useful method of confusion.
-The constellation, ‘The Hungry Prince’, cannot resist meat, and sympathizes with the feelings of the halflings.
Now we just need to find their warehouse.
