Stuck in The Tower

Is the first half of episode 8 worth it?

A ton of notifications floating in front of your eyes.

How many are these?

10 things? no. There are 20 traps hidden, including the small ones.

How the hell are you going to pierce this!

“There must have been a reason that manager Kim fell from the third floor.”

Assistant manager Kim, who once worked for the same company, which is now in ruins, said.

To break through the third floor, you must have the courage to be a madman or reckless.

Even though the man had a rough personality, he had a good body.

According to him, he had been in the special forces for a long time.

I wonder if that habit was still there, and when a new male member came in, I shuddered saying that I would take the discipline.

“Now is not the time to remember that.”

Corporate life is not important. What do you do when you think of a company that doesn’t already exist?

One important thing. It is a place where even those who were from the special forces die easily.

Even among those who left Assistant Manager Kim and belonged to that great large guild, there were also dropouts one after another.

Even though they were all trained in preparation for the day they would be summoned to the tower someday.

“I know a little bit.”

Before the company went bankrupt and started working as a porter, he struggled to join a large guild.

result? Needless to say, it was crazy.

Even though I invested in all kinds of martial arts and weapon skills, saying that I would become a hunter someday, the people gathered there were all monsters.

Martial Arts Army. It was full of experts who received elite courses in various fields.

Among them, large guilds are selected through screening.

It means that it is not a place for ordinary people like me to snoop around.

Irony, if not ironic, that not all of them pass the tutorial.

“Although the percentage is not high, there are people who go beyond tutorials and rise to the upper echelons among non-partisan ordinary people.”

The point to note is that

A man with a strong body falls down, and a woman who used to live in college climbs the tower.

While pro fighters fell out, people who worked in the company normally came forward.

where does the difference come from

It is clear that the tower is not a place that can be climbed simply with good physical abilities.

I watched the traps calmly.

‘Everyone is dangerous.’

One place may be broken or severe burns may occur.

If you’re unlucky, you’ll have to give up parts of your body, and in the worst case, you’ll die.

-I

took the crossbow out of my backpack and loaded it.

The spearhead trap that was triggered first.

It obviously moved as if it had a sensor attached.

Let’s check. Does it only activate on people or does it activate when anything enters the area? -It

was small in size as it was used by

Kirik Kobold, but I forcibly finished the shoulder strap.

– Push!

I pulled the trigger towards the portal.

An arrow that flies straight forward.

It was very fast.

-Kurrureung!

– Kwaaaaang!

– Kaga gak gak!

The traps reacted to the bolts and roared into action.

An iron ball the size of an adult’s torso swayed from side to side, and a bunch of arrows flew and made the sound of rain.

Until the saw blade rotates wildly and an iron skewer, no different from a ballista, is fired.

Until the current flowed and disappeared in a grid pattern, while an iron skewer, no different from a ballista, was fired.

Metal colliding with metal, sparks that bounced off. falling stone fragments.

Noises resounding as if hitting the eardrums.

It’s deafening to the ears.

But there was a harvest.

“I know a little bit.”

I raised my eyebrows.

Not sure yet.

Not all traps have been triggered.

[Going to the underworld pit]

– If you are curious about what the afterlife is like, now is your chance.

[Black Tile-Checkmate]

– You die instantly the moment you step on a black tile. Avoid.

Those two traps didn’t trigger.

The explanation isn’t even brutal.

From the name of the trap to the description, it looks very dangerous.

I guess it’s because I didn’t touch it directly.

“Are there five steps left?”

Unfortunately, there aren’t that many bolts.

If I had enough, I would just keep shooting.

Do you know if the number of triggers for the trap is fixed?

I don’t know anything else, but I thought it might be in the case of arrow traps or ballistas.

“Now, from those two.”

I picked up the crossbow again.

I pulled the trigger towards the pit trap.

The traps reacted to the arrows again and moved.

The bolt that flew away avoiding all those traps.

– Teeing!

It hit the floor and bounced off.

Unexpected results.

Doesn’t that trigger with arrows?

Maybe it works only when a certain weight goes up.

-Kirik,

keep that in mind for now.

I aimed at the black tile farther away than that.

[Black Tile-Checkmate]

It is a terrifying trap that is openly written as an instant death trap.

Almost at the end of the hallway.

Did you aim for the moment when you’ve passed all the traps? The location selection is amazing.

“I don’t know.”

Feeling the deceptiveness of the S-class power once again, I finished aiming.

It was a bit far, but not to the extent that I couldn’t hit it.

-Tae Ae-aeng!

I was able to match the tiles exactly.

The other traps worked this time too, but that one was unresponsive.

convinced of this

“Those two are the most dangerous. 1 round. It’s an instant death trap.”

There are trap names and descriptions like that, but unlike other traps, the important thing is that you have to step on them yourself to work.

It’s because I don’t know at all what form it will be activated.

I have no choice but to avoid it as much as possible.

“The other traps are not easy either.”

But as you can see, things are a little better.

It seems like I can get through somehow if I don’t lose my concentration.

Three arrows fired so far.

I managed to get a glimpse of the secret of the tutorial.

Not many, but the reason why untrained ordinary people were able to survive.

“There are little gaps.”

First, the trap section on the 3rd floor that I am looking at now.

The arrows I shoot have never been caught in a trap.

That it is not an instantaneous trap. It’s not long, but it does take a while to work.

“It’s good enough to avoid.”

From the outside, he was psychologically atrophied because of the bloody trap.

It looks like you’ll die if you’re sprained, but if you’re not nervous, that’s even weirder.

However, now that I have watched the trap activate over and over again, it is different. seemed like a possibility.

“If you keep moving without stopping, you can pass.”

If you hesitate even once or the timing is wrong, you will die.

Whether stabbed to death, burned to death, or crushed to death.

But what if you move without shrinking at the right timing?

“I think I can pass it even if I have average physical strength.”

In other words, it is not only physical ability that is important to pass the tutorial.

If you have excellent observational skills and the ability to act boldly, even ordinary people can pass.

It would be much easier to clear with crazy body specs at the national level, but there aren’t many people like that.

“I’m not even that level. Prudence and judgment. You have to hold on to this.”

In that sense, once again.

– Push!

fired a crossbow

To check which direction the trap is operating at what timing.

type of trap. The fastest possible route. Plan B was embodied in case the foot gets twisted.

-Peeing!

bolted again.

How strong are the traps? What potions can withstand them and what can’t.

I figured out what I could stop even if I gave up an arm.

-Paang!

When the one remaining bolt is fired.

“can do.”

I am confident that I can clear it.

The last thing I checked was how long it would take for the trap to reactivate.

There is definitely a difference.

Term of about 4 seconds. The trap existed with preparation time.

all that’s left now

“I just jump right in.”

I tightened my shoelaces.

The crossbow has done its job, so put it away.

-Pooong

In preparation for an unexpected situation, I opened the lid of the potion and blocked it with my left thumb.

Because you have to drink the moment you fall into a trap.

Dagger in right hand. The knife was also attached to his side so that he could pull it out at any time.

-Let’s put the Tuuk

bag down for a while. Not only does it weigh quite a bit, but if you’re unlucky, the bag can get caught in a trap and fall over.

Such an absurd death is a specification.

“Whoa.”

end of the hallway. I took a deep breath, stepping back until my back touched the wall.

time for me to run root. A pitfall that must be avoided. It was elaborately and clearly repeated.

My heart beats wildly. I can feel my blood vessels pulsating.

Running a simulation in your head is running it, and actually doing it is another thing.

I gently closed and opened my eyes.

The saw blade protruding from the wall kicked my foot at the timing of going back.

-Shhh!

A dagger thrown with him.

The traps reacted to the daggers were activated with a clicking sound, and the remaining time was 4 seconds until the traps were activated again.

My body has crossed the starting line.

The trap does not move for a very short time.

The first survival route I drew.

‘Break through as many traps as possible at the same time as the start.’

Five traps passed like that.

One spear trap, one saw blade trap, and three blade traps poking in from the wall.

I broke through unscathed, and the next pitfall to avoid is.

– Huung!

iron beads.

Four iron marbles with a diameter the size of a person shake at different timings.

Overwhelming visuals and the wind that blows every time you move.

It was a trap that would make you feel intimidated just by looking at it.

‘It’s the easiest trap to avoid.’

I rushed forward without slowing down.

This trap is all about visuals. The role of shrinking the challenger and making them passive.

Of course, if you stop, you will die.

Because the iron ball accelerates at some point and falls.

In other words, the flight time at the highest point is as long as the pendulum motion.

If you run at the right timing, you can pass it with a forward roll.

Of course I won’t.

-Chwaaaaagh!

At the same time as passing through the iron ball, I slid to the floor.

-Kagagakak!

At the same time, arrows shot from both sides hit the walls and bounced off.

This timing is damn right.

If you enter in a sprinting state, you become a hedgehog.

The only way to avoid it is to get past it even if you stick close to the ground.

“Now halfway.”

After passing the arrow trap, I immediately stood up and stood against the wall.

Unlike the others, there is a groove that barely fits one person.

It was like going inside.

-Quaaaaaang!

In fact, the use was right.

The ceiling fell down as soon as I entered through the gap in the wall.

Not even a normal ceiling. Because it was full of iron awls like teeth.

I would die if it was just spread, but I guess it’s because they uselessly save the details.

-The

ceiling that fell to the floor rises little by little.

now is the timing.

I got on top of it.

because.

-Pushong!

When this trap returns to its original position, a ballista is fired from the front.

A trap that hides in a gap in the wall and aims for when it comes out.

It’s truly a combination that can’t be overlooked for a second.

They’re already threatening, but they’re even engaging in psychological warfare. Things without conscience.

“Still, it’s worth doing more than you think.”

I raised my eyebrows.

If you make one mistake, you die, but unexpectedly, you can afford to avoid traps.

It’s a story that you don’t have to come up with a strategy in just seconds.

Maybe, just maybe, a person with crazy physical abilities might pass without making a plan like me.

I’ll take some injuries.

-Rumble thump

I jumped to the floor before the ceiling trap closed.

Now is the time to take a break.

The center of the trap area.

The second half begins with a flame trap installed three steps away.

and in the second half.

“There are two traps I don’t know how to trigger.”

Earth pit traps and black tiles.

I swallowed.

My heart was still beating, but I wasn’t afraid.

Instead, pleasant excitement and moderate tension filled my entire body.

I already had a way to avoid both traps in my head.

“Goes.”

I caught my breath and ran forward.
