Stuck in The Tower

Side Story Episode 23

There are scenes that we see surprisingly often in our lives.

There are people who get along well with similar people.

“Shekiga. “This is an enlargement criminal.”

“What a monster!”

There are many cases where people dislike similar people.

Lick Jjakjak and Sisyphus are like that.

Should I call it a kind of homophobia?

The abilities they both use are similar.

[Shooting (SSS) Lv.MAX]

The stones and dirt thrown by Sisyphus grow and continue to fly.

In response, Lick Jjak also threw a compression ball.

-Boooooooo!

The piled up trash all at once grows bigger and throws away stones.

“Deokchun, you can’t just throw away trash like that. Understand?”

“Yes.”

“Won’t you shut up? Do you also separate waste?”

“yes!”

Lick-Jjak-i opened his eyes and immediately closed his mouth.

As humanity’s territory shrinks, waste disposal has become an important issue.

There aren’t enough places for people to live, so where can they throw away their trash?

It is a famous anecdote that Lickjak came forward and solved the problem by compressing all the trash.

In addition, I also made compression balls to use as weapons.

“oh. Even junk cars.”

-Quaaang!

The blown compression sphere expands and spills out items.

A heavily dented vehicle hits Sisyphus.

Although it has lost its function as a car, it is still just metal.

Mass becomes a weapon in itself.

It’s not for nothing that large monsters are treated one level higher.

[The SS-level power, Will of the Earth, is demonstrated.]

The other party did not suffer silently either.

The ground trembled and the rising earthen wall canceled out the licker’s attack.

“Aaaah! “The acceptance ends here!”

-Roaring!

Sisyphus runs, pushing against the raised earthen wall with both hands.

The collapsed earth and sand clump together and dry into a round shape.

The thick thighs added to the momentum and the speed was high.

“What is that. and.”

Clumped dirt and stones turn into rocks and roll like a snowball.

A sphere that grows incredibly large every time it rolls around.

A skill that led to him being called Sisyphus.

[Shooting (SSS) Lv.MAX]

– Kugugugugugugung!

In just a few seconds, it turns into a ball over 10 meters long and hits us.

That just doesn’t work.

The diameter is only 10m. In addition to the acceleration rolling forward, an incredible weight will weigh down your entire body.

Even now, the size is growing.

-Quaaaang!

As the stone rolls, the entire building in its path collapses.

The fragments were repeatedly absorbed into the stone again.

“crazy.”

It feels like a small hill is approaching.

I could see why the bounty was so high on this guy.

If the circumstances are right, quite a few cities will be demolished.

The distance from the rolling rock was at most ten meters.

It gets there before it even rolls a single wheel.

“Ugh! “Emergency escape!”

“That’s a bit too much.”

– Taaat!

I threw myself in without worrying about who would go first.

Nyangfun even made a makeshift bunker and went inside, and I used the fire bomb to gain momentum and fell to the side.

The licker in the front.

“Can you stop me with something like this?”

[Compression (SSS) Lv.MAX]

Faced head on.

Was it due to the competitive spirit of not wanting to be defeated by someone of similar ability?

It was an extremely ignorant method.

“Aaaah!”

I blocked and compressed the approaching rock with both hands.

The fragments bounce along with the shock wave, and the licker also cheers and adds strength.

The body was pushed backwards by the overwhelming mass.

– Quad deud deuk!

The rock shrank like a lie.

Eventually, all that remained was.

-Cow.

A stone the size of a human body.

When I put down the rock I was holding, the ground shook.

Literally compressed.

This means that although the density has been reduced to a tremendous extent, the weight remains the same.

Lickjjakki shakes his hands off because his arms are numb.

“You’re stupid enough to take it from the front. die!”

Without missing the opportunity, Sisyphus rushed forward.

The lower body developed by rolling a rock moves elastically.

Tremendous physicality.

Sisyphus’s all-muscular body is capable of close combat beyond imagination.

Fifteen punches come and go in one breath.

Then, boom!

“I never thought I’d think of attacking you with force. stupid.”

Sisyphus and Lick Jjak grabbed both hands.

The power struggle that follows.

The corners of his mouth rose, but that only lasted for a moment.

“Hmm?”

Sisyphus’ face is filled with embarrassment.

On the contrary, the corners of Lickjjak’s eyes were bent.

“I was wondering if something was there when you suddenly rushed at me.”

“Turn it off!”

Sisyphus’s hands begin to break little by little.

What he uses is called.

What Lick Jjakgi uses is compression.

There was a difference in the use of skills.

‘Compressed items are heavy.’

How many items go into making one fist-sized compression ball?

Carrying around dozens of ridiculously high compression balls is a joke.

He even enjoyed throwing compressed balls, so he had the strength to handle such objects.

“Compared to the hair loss man, you have come a long way.”

“Khaaaaaak!”

-Pud!

It was at a level that most warrior-type hunters could easily press down on.

Sisyphus, whose wrist was broken, screamed in pain.

“Wow, that must hurt.”

“Geueheh.”

That’s why every time I hit him on the back, he hits me hard! The sound comes out naturally.

I shuddered at the feeling of my back hurting for no reason.

Sisyphus tried to hold on, but little by little his body went down.

Eventually, the guy kneels down with both hands twisted.

In fact, the battle is over.

There was no cheering or anything. It was a natural result.

“It seems like Likjjak has become stronger.”

“I was working out with the hair loss man these days. I’m scared so I won’t go next to him. “It’s like doing squats while holding a bus.”

I decided to listen to Nyangfun’s words.

When I ask him to go exercise with me, he runs away.

I also have high stats so I don’t run out of strength anywhere, but I don’t want to have a power battle with Hair Loss Man and Lick Jjak.

If you think about it, those two guys were exercising to begin with.

The bald man is a soldier. A licking elite athlete.

Whatever it is.

“How long will it take for the students to arrive?”

“Maybe we should wait a while? “It will take some time to practice on the coast.”

It would take at least 30 minutes to catch a 1-star monster and come here.

No matter how low-level the monster is, this is also the students’ first encounter with it.

I say I’m awakened, but I don’t have powers or anything like that.

‘We also need to check how the new humans become stronger.’

Climbers gain powers and acquire skills with the assistance of the system, but students born with the innate potential for awakening will become strong in a different way.

Maybe just my physical abilities would become stronger, just as my stats would increase.

Replace skills with technology.

Aren’t we still conducting similar research?

Research magic by reorganizing magic-type skills and systematize skills used as weapons to create technology.

I think it would be a bit difficult for the magma fairy to flow magma because it seems to be related to her constitution.

This was something I had to check to find out.

“Are you going to kill these kids if they come?”

Before I knew it, Lick Jjakja, who had equipped Sisyphus with the cursed item and compressed it, asked.

If you compress that state a little more, Sisyphus will turn into Sisyphus.

“Just leave it alone. “I think it’s still early.”

Killing monsters is no problem.

The media often shows hunters catching monsters.

‘Even if you haven’t experienced it directly, anger toward monsters is deep-rooted.’

Most academy students have at least one parent who is a hunter.

In other words, they had jobs that always exposed them to risk, and quite a few of them died.

Minjun Kim, who was brought in from Manmasongsanggyo in China, also lost his parents.

It is common for grandparents, even if not parents, to be victims of monsters.

However, people are different.

‘Because there is no anger towards people.’

The students were not from the generation that experienced the cataclysm, so they did not know how far people can fall and become ugly.

A sight of people killing each other, not monsters.

I did not experience the heartlessness of baiting those who were with me for survival.

Personally, I wish I didn’t know in the future.

There is no need to get used to seeing people already killed.

“Let’s just show the fight later and deal with it later. “You can just hold your breath and hand it over to the government.”

“That’s good too! “There’s additional compensation if you capture it alive!”

“That’s right. Since he is a villain who has been active for a long time, there will be a lot of information to dig up.”

He is a useful criminal in many ways.

You can get information by giving money and using it to educate children.

The moment you nod your head in satisfaction as you see the villain finally becoming useful.

“Hehe. It’s so absurd, it doesn’t even make sense. “Isn’t that too carefree?”

Sisyphus, who was lying bound and sprawled on the floor, burst into laughter.

“I gently tightened it, right? “Can you at least pull out one of my legs?”

“Hehehaha! You have so much leisure! Is it because he has that level of skill? Or is it that you don’t need to worry about me?”

Either way, the guy burst out laughing.

What happened to your hair?

Being provocative in front of someone whose life could depend on it is not a good option.

“Hmm? There’s an ominous feeling coming from the other side of Monga. “A strangely unpleasant feeling?”

“Where over there?”

If Nyangpun’s intuition had reacted separately from the guy’s reaction, the story would be different.

Nyangfun is the best at detecting danger as he has safety first as his authority.

Nyangfun looked around for a moment and pointed to one side.

“Mr. Lee.”

We both contorted our faces at the same time.

The direction pointed by Nyangfun.

This is where the students are.

just as expected.

-Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Strange lightning fell from the sky.

* * *

“Everyone gather in one place! “You can’t come out!”

The road entering the interior from the coast.

Fluffy raises his voice and swings a blunt weapon.

“What on earth are they?”

Along with him, the hunters who came to lead the students deal with the vicious monsters that come in.

Those sent by the government to support the academy are mostly D to C grades.

Although the rating itself is low, he is a veteran who has accumulated a track record by going through several gates.

They weren’t much help in the current situation either.

Not only were there at most four people, but the attacking monsters were at least 3 stars.

A large monster that gives you one level higher. Among them, dozens of large marine species known for being picky appeared.

Low-level monsters are also flocking in, so just settling in and fighting is daunting.

They know that if they are pushed out, students and teachers in general will be swept away, so they are doing their best to keep their positions.

If only monsters had come, it would have been urgent but not dangerous.

There were two hunters here who had climbed up to the 90th floor.

S-class hunter Fluffy.

Top tier hunter hair loss man.

Still, the reason why things happened like this.

“Hair loss man! “It’s right next door too!”

“Didn’t all international criminals move separately? I don’t know! “We’ll beat them all!”

This was because it wasn’t just monsters that attacked them.

International criminal.

Heinous criminals who caused unforgettable damage gathered from all over the world.

There are only 8 people.

Even though they were lower level than them, dozens of unregistered hunters and those engaged in illegal work also joined in.

“Why are the worshipers there?”

The group of worshipers completely collapsed, and there were also worshipers who had nowhere to go.

International criminals were a problem, but this was also a problem.

Worshipers generally had a high level of climbing, and were even given items and skill powers that were difficult to obtain from high-level worshipers.

.

.

.

A strange and terrible attack came as if covering the island.

The hair loss man was worried.

Should I leave it to Bosongsong and go out?

In that case, will students and teachers be safe?

Soldiers were meant to protect people and did not want them to risk death due to their own greed.

‘What do you think would happen if we were given just 5 minutes?’

At most 5 minutes. Although it was a short period of time, it was enough time for people’s lives to come and go.

It feels like a very long time, especially for students who have just entered the field.

Didn’t you feel it yourself?

This was my first experience in a special rental unit. I remember the moment when my comrades screamed and turned to blood in just three minutes.

The scream that no human could make became like a needle that stuck in my ear and left an uncomfortable feeling that I will forget even now.

It may have been from then on that I started hitting monsters with my bare hands.

What about students?

Would you be able to handle it if your friend dies due to a loophole created by your actions to turn things around due to a small mistake you made?

[Concept Black Knight inflates himself.]

‘I’m sure he’ll be back soon.’

The hair loss man made a decision.

Student protection is our top priority.

Since I heard a loud noise, I had no doubt that the members, including Petit Gondue, would return soon.

The criminals, who thought they had won when they saw the hairless man, laughed out loud.

“Hahaha! This is the best offering to announce our return!”

“Welcome the launch of Ouroboros, the international criminal association!”

A voice full of confidence.

It was a cry containing the aspiration to no longer be stuck in the shadows, but the eyes of those, including the students, were elsewhere.

“It’s an interesting story, so keep it up.”

-Oooooh!

Evileye, who emits seven-colored brilliance, and Nyangpun, who is dyed in golden light, are just pouring out incredibly bloody energy, but an even scarier Lick is coming on the rainbow.
