The Return of Apocalypses Tyrant

Episode 156

“Namgoong. What on earth do you mean by taking the tower?”

Den Howl asked him with a puzzled expression.

“Literally. They are the inhabitants of the tower. “I was released this time when the owner of the tower changed.”

“The tower… wasn’t a dungeon?”

He glanced at Latea, who was standing next to Namgung, and asked cautiously.

[We are the same human race as you. It’s a bit difficult to be dismissed as a monster.]

“Speaking of demons…”

Den couldn’t hide his surprised expression at the sound of her voice coming from inside his helmet.

“It’s just as she said. Although there are monsters living inside the tower, it is different from the regular dungeons created so far. “It was a place where a village existed and people lived like us.”

Namgung pointed to Lathea.

“She is the head of Yoran, one of the clans in the tower. The rest of the clan will just need to be guided through her. “We will receive their support for the carnival starting now.”

“Namgoong brought us here, so they must be trustworthy… but it’s okay, right?”

“You do not have to worry. Because she has now made a soul contract with me. “Even though I am not a soul soldier and am in a slightly unusual position… I cannot betray or harm anyone.”

[I have no intention of doing so. Just by being able to come out of the tower, he is a benefactor to us. From now on, I will do my best to help you end the carnival safely.]

Den Howl’s first impression of Lathea was that she was nothing more than a weirdo wearing a bizarre helmet.

However, the moment he held the hand held out to him, his entire body received a tingling shock.

‘What is it…? horsepower?’

It was a deep and deep magical power that I had never felt before. Thanks to [Ice Heart], he has risen to the next level, but the power is too much for even him to handle.

Or rather, I didn’t know that I could be afraid of Lathea’s power because I had grown up.

“There was another wizard as great as Miss Somin.”

[Am I a wizard? It looks like he is a revelator chosen by the Wanderer of the Four Seasons… but there is still a long way to go. Because if you are a wizard, you have to develop eyes to see the essence from a long time ago.]

“…Yes?”

Latea looked at Den.

[I can’t use magic. It just has some magical powers. It seems you were confused about that.]

“A little magic? “There are only a handful of people who have as much magical power as you right now.”

[That’s just because you haven’t finished the carnival yet. Don’t worry, he can easily surpass mine with his magic power.]

Dan whetted his appetite at the sight of Lathea speaking as if it was no big deal.

[Besides, my major is spearing.]

“Are you saying you’re a spearman? This is ridiculous…”

[But if you want, I’ll tell you a little bit of what I know. I don’t know advanced magic, but opening the third page would be helpful.]

“Are you serious? thank you!!”

[Even thanks. Considering what he did for us, this is such a trivial thing.]

Although he had forgotten about it for a moment because of the magic story, Den was curious about how on earth Namgung opened the door to the tower.

“What kind of magic are you doing? Others were whining about finding a way to enter the tower…”

“It’s not that important. You’ll have to hurry more than that. Everyone heard it, right? The sixth door has opened. “I don’t have time to idle around.”

“yes!!”

“All right.”

Michael and Den nodded at Namgung’s words.

Kugggggggg….

Before leaving the area, Namgung looked at the huge tower once again.

* * *

[Don’t… do anything?]

Ran asked Namgung’s words with a puzzled expression.

“that’s right. That’s what you have to do if you really want to join hands with me.”

[This is a strange thing. Not only did you turn down the opportunity to gain my power, but do you mean that you will not even do the quest given to me by the tower?]

“I see you understand correctly.”

[Then what do you get? All we can do is retrieve the sacred relics of the Aspects.]

He said to Namgung.

[Even if you collect holy relics and summon a temple… in the end, it will only encourage the Aspects to get involved in the world.]

“I think so too. Of course, the sacred relics will be recovered.”

[Hmm… I don’t understand your plan.]

“There’s no need to be difficult. “It’s just that they don’t want to do what their superiors want them to do.”

[What do they want?]

“I threatened the Aspects with holy relics from the Pantheon. Thanks to that, they summoned the tower.”

[The more you think about it, the funnier it becomes.]

“But they don’t take it easy. Sang Sang told us that we would gain strength to prepare for the future carnival in the tower. “At first I thought it was the clan trapped here.”

[That can’t be possible. They are like a thorn in the side of the Aspects. That quest was given to you to keep you from going out into the world.]

“That’s right. In the first place, the Aspects had no intention of helping us. Even if we found out about it, they probably created a tower quest with a shallow reward so that we wouldn’t have anything to say.”

[But you broke their expectations and instead used the power of your clan to come to see me.]

Namgung nodded at Ran’s words.

[So I don’t understand it even more. At best, you come to me and try to leave without gaining any strength.]

“It’s not that you have nothing to gain.”

[So?]

“You don’t lose anything.”

As Lathea said, the Tower of Woo could be said to be a kind of prison that imprisoned those who rebelled against the carnival.

This means that all beings in this place are beings that the Aspects want to kill.

That’s why they tried to deal with the clans with Namgung’s help.

‘I can’t move as they want.’

So, contrary to the tower’s quest, he tried to get his clan to escape from the tower.

“Even if it means destroying the tower. But my thoughts changed after meeting you, Ran. “It occurred to me that destroying the tower might be what the Aspects really wanted.”

[Why?]

“If Wu (无) is the one who creates inflection, then Ran (亂) you are the one at the end of the rules. No matter what you say, you are the center of status. Even if you are hostile to the Aspects, releasing you will affect them in some way.”

Ran grinned at his words.

[It looks like Woo (无) chose one person well. You are right. I want to kill the aspects that imprison me right now… but I am the same as the source of the aspects. If I am released, the powers of the Aspects will also become stronger.]

“I will only do things they hate. “They will kill those they want to save, and they will save those they want to kill.”

[That’s fun. But isn’t it a waste? This means leaving behind all the power that can be gained from the tower.]

“Who is leaving? “I will definitely use this tower more than anything else.”

[…Hmm?]

“If the Aspects are enough to imprison everyone, from you, the so-called Aspect of the Beginning, to the clans that rebelled against you… wouldn’t that mean it’s a stronger place than anything else?”

[What does it matter to you that the tower is strong? Don’t worry. No matter how strong it is, if my strength is released, I can easily destroy something like this.]

“You don’t understand what I’m saying. “If that happens, the power of the Aspects will also become stronger.”

[Then what are we going to do?]

“What I’m going to get is this tower itself.”

[What?]

“This is no longer a prison.”

Namgung slowly raised his head.

“It will be a stronger ark than anything else.”

* * *

▶ The movement of the Goblin Fortress has been completed.

▶ The tower and castle merge.

▶ The power of the tower expands the area of the fortress.

▶ The level of the Goblin Fortress has increased.

▶ The grade of the Goblin Fortress has become (rare), and various additional effects have been gained.

Kugggggg….

A wall was erected around the fortress that stood tall like a huge castle inside the tower, and buildings were built inside it like a city.

“Hmm.”

Namgung nodded as he watched the area of the fortress continue to expand.

‘It is growing into a city that is more than just an expansion of the interior of the fortress.’

This was possible because the goblins were more tribal than simply acting as a group.

[Creating a village inside a tower… you’re probably the only one who can think of something like this.]

Lathea said in an astounded voice, recalling the many years she had lived in the barracks in this desolate place.

“That’s right. How on earth did you do it? “A village inside a dungeon…”

“This was possible because it was not a dungeon. “There are monsters, but it must be seen as a literal new dimension rather than a dungeon.”

“Huh, that’s great.”

“Anyway, how are you feeling?”

“There’s no need to explain. “It’s a place where even rolling stones are given properties…”

There were many people there besides Lathea.

This was because when the door of the tower was opened by the power of Ran, those who had not been able to enter until now because they could not find the entrance to the tower became able to enter.

“It may sound strange to say this, but it is a paradise for those with production skills.”

Man Deok-su couldn’t help but be amazed as he picked up a stone that had fallen on the floor of the lava plateau and examined it.

“It’s been a while since I felt motivated. “I can think of a lot of things I want to make… Do you mind if I use these?”

[However much. However, even if the tower door is open, there are still monsters inhabiting it, so it would be better to move with the clan’s hunters.]

“I have one question. Is it possible to take these ingredients outside? If that happens, I think we will be able to strengthen the fortified cities…”

[It may be difficult right now, but it will be possible if we use the wizards’ space movement techniques.]

“I’m looking forward to it.”

Not only Man Deok-su but also Jin Soo-hyuk responded in a slightly excited voice.

[However, one thing to note is that there are two more doors in the tower besides the Arong Gate where we are staying. The door only responds to outsiders. That means any of you can open that door, so you have to be careful.]

“Who lives in there?”

Lathea shook her head.

[I do not know either. The door is completely sealed. However, what is certain is that they too were imprisoned for rebelling against their status.]

“Then doesn’t that mean they are allies?”

[You can’t necessarily see it that way. The tower is still testing them, and if it demands the annihilation of this place in exchange for their freedom…]

Latea looked at the people.

[It’s like releasing the monster inside us.]

“It means we have to take risks to obtain new materials. “For the time being, it would be better to focus on this place and prepare for future monsters.”

“All right.”

“Then see if you can set up a magic circle with the wizards.”

“yes. “We will do that.”

Jin Su-hyeok and Den moved with the Yoran clan first, and Man Deok-su decided to inspect the newly upgraded fortress first.

[In the future, all kinds of people will gather there. It is a field that transcends time and space… You will be the first person to have done something like this.]

“The beginning is not important. “What’s important is what comes after.”

There may be some who welcome the appearance of the clan, but most public opinion is sure to be uneasy.

Namgung knew that one more thing was needed to stabilize them and further maintain their cooperative relationship.

It was power.

Thanks to him, the tower door opened and he entered a new world, but the freedom he gained was ultimately able to fuel another desire.

The desire to have more.

[Could the Tower’s clan take over your world? Haha, that can’t be happening. The Yoran clan will never betray you. I promise that.]

Latea said, playfully flicking the helmet she was wearing with her fingers.

“You don’t know that. Because human greed has no end. Betrayal can exist at any time. I’ve watched that so many times.]

[Then…what do you plan to do?]

“Unit the world.”

Park Hyo-joo, who was behind Namgung, spoke to him as if she had been waiting.

“Ready.”
