Pick Me Up, Infinite Gacha

# 273

273. Catastrophe (4)

The next day, from the time I climbed the 78th floor, Amkena didn’t send me out on the mission.

He must have realized that he didn’t need to use his full power until he reached the 80th floor.

Therefore, party 1 was given a little break.

‘I won’t be able to rest for a while.’

Amkena seems to have finished her troubles.

Whether it is or not, let’s bump into it.

I was climbing the floor on a daily basis and putting up a last spurt. Perhaps, as has always been the case, when they think they are ready, they will send us on a mission without hesitation.

It was necessary to prepare in advance.

I also drank water on the 80th floor when I was like a game machine.

Even if we go back to that time, we cannot guarantee that we will succeed in attacking 100 percent. It is true that success in conquering the 80th floor was not only a matter of skill, but also luck.

‘By the way…’

The Niflheim kids said that I would succeed unconditionally.

When the difficulty of the game is raised to the extreme, then luck as well as skill has a great impact.

Well, from their point of view, they wouldn’t have known how much I was shaking my hands while attacking the 80th floor at the time. It may have felt like a natural awakening. That’s not right. I was also insanely nervous.

I looked up.

Amkena is connected. These days, the guy has been getting ready by connecting to Pick Me Up all day. They change the composition of the raid several times, rearrange tactical tools, order airship inspections, and nurture heroes. Looking at it, it doesn’t even look like it’s sleeping.

It seemed that Master had no intention of stopping.

That’s important. If I stopped attacking because I was afraid of failure, I would have no reason to stay in Taonier. At first, I cursed a lot in my heart, but now that I look at it, it seems that I have properly pulled out the master’s lumber.

‘Well at least he listens well.’

I tend to take care of heroes too.

I looked ahead

hall of the mansion. There was a huge metal display stand.

‘Finally completed.’

Thousands of warhorse statues.

It was one of my goals before leaving this place.

It is similar to collecting postage stamps. Life would be so boring if you just fight and train. Although it was destroyed in an explosion accident in the middle, I was able to complete the war horse collection somehow.

Tboob.

I approached the statue in front of the exhibition stand.

Well tanned tanned skin and muscular body. The two raised feet showed wild power.

Statue number 37. The commander of the cavalry unit decided on this guy. It was the only warhorse that survived the explosion. The warhorse’s name is…

“Siris.”

I chuckled.

Then, after placing a handful of the warhorse statues lying next to him in his pocket, he rang the bell installed on the wall.

with my daughter

A clear sound resounded, and a girl in a maid’s uniform walked out.

She was an exclusive maid in charge of various household chores in the mansion. Amkena also attached this guy.

“Did you call, Han?”

“I have a favor to ask you.”

The girl bowed deeply.

“When I get to the 80th floor, dispose of all these statues.”

“…yes?”

“You can throw them in the trash, or you can collect them and burn them all at once. I’ll leave the method up to you.”

“Ha, Han!”

I turned my back and walked out.

“Oh, it’s something the master gave you, isn’t it a bit wasteful to throw it away?”

“Think one more time…”

“Then I’ll give it to you. Take it all. How is it, good?”

The girl’s expression hardened.

Then, he stuttered and opened his mouth.

“This kind of thing that the owner cherishes… How can I…

”

The girl hesitated.

It seemed that he was moved by the valuable gift.

‘Well, I played a lot with this.’

The statues helped me control my stress.

It was very straight forward. That guy shouldn’t be under a lot of stress at work, but I hope he can benefit a lot from this gift. I got out of the mansion

As soon as I came out, a ray of pain passed through my chest.

I think now I understand the feelings of Gyebaek, who cut the throats of his family before going to Hwangsanbeol.

‘It’s a shame…’

No. I shook my head.

Even the war horses would have been itching to stay stuck in one place. It would be nice to meet another owner.

From the girl’s attitude, it seems that she will take good care of the horses. I whistled and went downstairs on the elevator.

The corner of the square on the second floor.

The storage room was located in a remote area out of the reach of passers-by.

I passed through the guards and made my way to the back of the storage room. There is a display case where the mementos of past Taonier fighters are kept. Each column had a name tag written on it.

A typical example is Iolka, who died on the 35th floor.

Early members Gide and Hanson also took their seats. Not far away was Edith, the leader of the 2nd party.

I opened the glass door blocking the room and put the statue of the war horse I had hidden in my pocket.

‘I didn’t regret it.’

Having left Gide and Hanson on the 5th floor to die.

Not going to rescue Edith, who was left alone in the burning airship.

Iolka, who died bleeding in the underwater temple…

‘The last one…’

is a lie.

I tried not to regret it, but I couldn’t help but regret it.

There were many times when I thought I wanted to go back to that time. It could have yielded different results.

I saw a fine fan and a fur coat in the display case.

Iolka’s keepsake. It was my only blemish that I regretted time and time again. When I close my eyes, I still remember that time. The figure of her being dragged into the deep sea.

‘They said it would revive them.’

If you climb the tower to the end, Taonier will return to its original state.

But can we still make the same promise?

I put my ass on the chair in front of the display case.

[Is there something wrong?]

Ppyorong.

Isel appeared, sprinkled with star dust.

I think you were looking at me.

but. People say it’s time to die if you do something that people wouldn’t do.

“I was cleaning up.”

[Cleaning up?]

“You might die on the 80th floor.

[no way! Loki is dying? That Loki, who defeated El Cid and climbed to the 88th floor of Niflheim, failed here? Nonsense!]

Issel vigorously waved his hand.

I laughed without answering.

“Oh, Isel. I have a question.”

[huh. Ask anything. What is it?]

I put myself on the backrest.

It reminded me of the sight I witnessed at the 6th floor promotion ceremony.

However, there was no specific content. I just saw myself when I was abandoned in an orphanage.

So, this was a simple check.

“What kind of guy was Han Israt?”

[Han Israt?]

“Not me.

[no. They don’t look alike at all?]

Isel, sitting on my shoulder, chattered.

[That guy is a kid who is less than 10 years old. There’s no way he has any contact with Loki. I recognized it right away as soon as I saw the list of heroes.]

“…Little boy.”

[I don’t look like you at all. There’s a big difference in height and physique!]

Issel said, patting her feet.

[The CEO switched the two. In the first place, there can be no contact between the upper and lower dimensions. Except for this special case. If the kids here go up to Earth, they probably won’t be able to withstand the dimensional pressure and will be torn apart right away?]

“Is that so?”

[Cancer.]

I briefly summarized it.

I was swapped with ‘Han Israt’, the basic hero here, by the goddess ‘Tell’.

There is no connection between me and him. This is because the existence of higher and lower dimensions is incompatible.

‘It was an absurd hypothesis.’

I shook my head.

I guess I was fooling around. It was a crazy idea.

The front and back don’t match at all. You’d better spend your energy in a more productive way.

For example, things like being promoted to 7 stars.

that’s right.

After reaching the 6-star level, I tried to upgrade to 7-star.

I also have the Book of Reversal. If he was promoted, he could continue climbing under much more favorable conditions.

but failed miserably. I borrowed the master’s authority from Isel and tried cooking, but the upgrade window did not open. It is clear that something is missing. But I still don’t know what it is.

‘Well, I have no choice but to go to 6 stars for the time being.’

Amkena won’t wait any longer.

I looked to the side. Isel, who was sitting on my shoulder, looked at me and smiled.

All is well.

I also laughed at him.

Time passed after that.

With each passing day, Amkena’s climbing floor climbed one by one, eventually reaching the 79th floor.

I read through Niflheim’s progress record on the 80th floor and prepared for the final attack. On the 80th floor, at least 3 complex patterns will emerge. Perhaps Amkena alone cannot proceed.

‘There are three major obstacles.’

The first is the fragment series.

They will invade the mission field in thousands.

Simple weapons or magic cannot harm them.

It was one of the headaches that frustrated many masters.

The second was the existence of the prince.

He will stand in my way with two ancient servants. Collaboration between the Fragments series and a mighty boss. This was also an element that made the master who challenged the 80th floor crazy.

The third was the uncertain element random pattern.

Various patterns that take aspects of the mission in completely different directions.

On the 80th floor, the fields and sub-objectives of missions constantly change, confusing the master and the hero. If you do it right, it will help you with the mission, but it won’t be so friendly beyond the 80th floor.

‘It’s more troublesome than Niflheim.’

When I was Loki, I could send out an advance party and figure out the mission ahead of time.

But this time, that trick didn’t work. Amkena sent out an 80th-floor advance party made up of prisoners from the waiting room a couple of times, but they were often annihilated as soon as they entered. I meant that I had to attack the 80th floor without any information.

I cooled my head.

The time to indulge in useless emotions is over.

From now on, it was time to carry out the mission with logic and reason.

and late at night.

Amkena began distributing supplies to the heroes.

The meaning of this action was simple. I always did that every time I attacked the boss stage.

‘Tomorrow.’

Attack the 80th floor.

The other heroes seemed to have noticed the atmosphere and moved busily.

The lieutenant-level heroes in charge of the engineering team had strategy discussions in the conference room and prepared for the battle by analyzing the basic tactics established by Amkena.

I could go out if I wanted to, but I have other things to do.

My role wasn’t like this.

The task of the 1st party is clear.

To subdue the main boss monster, Prince Prios Al Ragna.

I devised a strategy with the 1st party members while listening to Halgion and Asinis explain what abilities the other ancient races had and what troublesome things would happen when they were combined.

‘I wish there was one more member.’

Not even a full party.

I felt the vacancy of that guy.

“This time has come.”

The day before climbing the 80th floor.

Belquist Jenna and I gathered in my room.

“That person looks very strong… I can win, right?”

[It’s enough just to do what you trained for.]

Halgion muttered as he stroked his beak.

Beside him, Asinis, who had become a white weasel, was eating feed.

Belquist was in the middle of fixing his sword.

“I wish I had brother Aaron. I don’t know when he’ll come.”

“I don’t even know if I liked it there.”

“Ah, absolutely not. They will come unconditionally.”

“I don’t care if they come or not. I just do my job.”

Belquist pulled out the blade and inspected it.

“But brother, why are you worrying like that?”

I looked behind me in silence.

A large leather pouch in the corner of the room caught my eye.

The pockets reached the top of the room.

‘There’s no place to put it?’

He was only able to dispose of half of the statue.

He strongly refused, saying that there was no place to keep it in his small room.

I made a big decision and handed it over.

I mumbled looking at my pockets.

“Tomorrow, the climbing will begin.”

“I will.”

“I have a favor, will you do it?”

“Yes, what is it?”

I got up and walked towards the pocket.

And opened the entrance.

“Take only 300 of them.”
