Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 239 Did you hear the siren

by mistake?

You want a set of fell lines?

I’ve been struggling to get this together.

There’s no way. Now I only need to collect two more, but I can’t sell them.

“I want to complete the fall line set. That would be a bit difficult.”

“It’s just a coincidence. I also want to complete the fall line set.”

“haha. I’ve collected one so far, but wouldn’t I have more potential after collecting five? I’ll even send you a picture when I get it all together.”

“Sounds unreasonable. Traditionally, when you see the real thing called a work of art, that heart fills your heart.”

“An object has meaning only when it fulfills the role it was created for. If you’re just going to leave it alone and appreciate it, it’s better to collect pictures.”

“I don’t mean to just watch. It will be used as a valuable resource for research and digging to create better works.”

A conversation without any concessions.

I can’t speak.

As a blacksmith, artisan, and engineer, the Dwarf’s eyes are clear.

Not to mention Behiltan.

It’s because he’s leading the Framberg, a huge group of NPCs.

oh it hurts

I’ve been looking for the location of the Fellain set, but they’re asking me to give mine instead.

okay. I know you can’t get it simply through conversation.

If that’s the case, I’ll have to use another method.

“great. Then we make a deal. We will help Framberg live a better life than now. In return, give me the fall line parts.”

“haha. I am of the same opinion. You are a climber and you want to climb to the 100th floor. I’ll help you. I will make you an offer you cannot refuse.”

I plan to go up to the 100th floor.

It’s also desperate.

The point at which we entered the transition period of destruction. The time given to me is limited, and as long as I have infinite coins, I cannot go out unless I clear the 100th floor.

Even if I went out, if it was too late, I might fall into a wasteland with nothing.

so i need more

Because I think there is no better equipment than the fall line set.

Each grade may be low.

Right now, Felline’s yellow body is also E-class, if only for the grade.

The orange right leg is F grade.

If it was used separately, it would be no different from garbage, but what happened after being merged?

Wouldn’t it be a device that combines powerful defensive power and optional S-class skills for user convenience?

Indestructible Self-healing Pleasant sensation shared.

It is a valuable option. It is said that a graduation item like the silver hairtail suit that Limp is using is enough.

Therefore, I am confident that I will not be shaken no matter what conditions Behiltan puts forward.

On the contrary, I am confident that he will show conditions that are difficult for him to refuse.

I start first.

“It was my first time at Framberg, but I heard about the circumstances as I came. The water of life imported through Hwajoguk. Its creator folds. I’ll give you the recipe. I’m not asking for royalties. I am going to give it up completely.”

I leaned back on the sofa.

“In order for NPCs to live without losing their ego, there is a law that requires a price. Wouldn’t it be great if you could save points?”

“Life water… I didn’t know you were a producer. Somehow, I thought the stock was limited. It was absurdly written.”

I guess so. It’s not like I’m just making potions all day long.

I kept making it in my spare time, but I couldn’t make it indefinitely as much as I did alone.

Apart from other things, he is the representative who manages Framberg.

There was no way he would give up on a better path because of his personal greed.

I thought…

“It’s an interesting offer, but I refuse it. There are several reasons. first.”

he raises his finger

“The purified water and the water of life we used to drink. There is a difference, but it’s not huge. If that were the case, dwarves would have gone extinct long ago.”

That’s right.

It hadn’t been long since they made and sold the water of life.

“second. You say you can tell me how to make it, but if that’s the case, the Flower and Bird Bureau won’t sit still. Anyway, it’s a trade item, and the Flower and Family Bureau is benefiting from it. It’s like unilaterally terminating a deal.”

“Isn’t that part of my responsibility?”

“You will pay the price as well. Because Empress Geumcheon is greedy and hates losing her things. The problem is us…”

Behiltan points out the window.

where smoke rises. Those who appear to be laborers are feeding the springs to the mechanical arms, and are roasting potatoes with steam from the golem’s belly.

Wipe the pus-stained leg with a cloth, apply ointment, and rub the blistered skin with a potion.

“Some of the daily necessities, medicines, and various materials we use, even toilet paper for wiping poop, depend on imports. Because this is Framburg, a polluted land where no grass grows.”

Kwap. he clenches his fist

“The Kingdom of Flowers and Birds is a group that is absolutely necessary for our survival. Almost everything is imported.”

“It means that the Flower and Bird Bureau may retaliate. I only missed one item. does that make sense? They are not simply in a position to receive help, they will also sell products produced by Framberg.”

“Isn’t there such a thing as a justification? Whatever your intentions, from the outside, it only looks like they took you away and made you cut off the deal with the Flower and Family Bureau. Besides…”

He shrugs.

“Even if they knew the truth, they would impose restrictions on them pretending not to know. It’s a chance to rewrite the contract on favorable terms for them.”

“…that.”

I was too complacent about the relationship between NPC groups.

In the confined space of the tower, it was unknown what kind of secret struggle they would engage in for each other’s benefit and survival.

“For this and that reason, the method of making the water of life doesn’t have much merit. If nothing better, why not go with my suggestion? If you listen to my conditions, you will surely be tempted.”

-Quarreureung

Behiltan took out from his bosom and pressed the button, and one side of the wall opened.

hidden showroom.

It was full of unusual things even at first glance.

“Ow.”

I couldn’t help but admire it.

The walls are filled with various equipment and artifacts.

[Battle Ax of the Disappeared King (SS)]

– King Grehilton, who conquered the continent, disappeared before being crowned emperor.

– Leaving behind the ax he used in the war.

[The Last Breath of the Underground Dragon (SS)]

-Dragon Pearl Hillsgon, who had to spend eternity underground for committing a sin.

-The breath she left behind contains powerful curses and magical powers.

-If you have strong resistance to curses, all stats will be greatly improved.

[Something the Fairy King Stole (SSS)]

-A fairy who likes to play pranks.

– If it’s their king, the scale must be big, right?

– A prank that almost destroyed the continent. What is he hiding?

– A strong seal is hanging.

[Pretty trash (S)]

-There was a wizard who was blinded by jealousy.

– He was also one of the heroes who saved the world.

-But his appearance was ugly and he was ostracized implicitly.

-The object she was jealous of was a saint who was both a hero and a traitor.

-I hate the world. I will turn the saintess into pretty trash and disappear.

– These are the last words of Bel Castra, the wizard of salvation.

-What happened to the saintess?

At least S-class. Most of them boasted SS grade, and occasionally even SSS grade items are on display.

It is not a fake.

It is unmistakably genuine, judging from what can be seen through authority.

Even if you can’t have those items, 20 of them.

“What you see is only part of it. It’s a kind of show off, and I show it sometimes when I want to kill the opponent’s spirit.”

“It must have an effect. If you come here to do business and see something like that, I think you’ll lose your confidence.”

“that’s right. That’s why when people from the country of flowers come, I often show them. The problem is that Empress Geumcheon shows more greed because of that.”

Scratching his head, Behiltan pointed his chin at the wall.

“It counts as 2 items I have for each part. Since you have 5 sets of fall lines, you can take a total of 10. If you think that alone is a pity, let me know. I have a separate warehouse. It doesn’t matter if you choose there.”

this crazy Are there more of these things?

Giving up 5 fall line sets to get 10 S-rank or higher items?

There’s even an SSS class among them?

“That’s it.”

“Wait a minute, Deokchun, honestly, it’s worth worrying about.”

I waved at Deokchun who was shaking me.

I promised myself that I would never waver, but the temptation this time is quite strong.

No, I’d say it’s S-class, but the SSS-class is a bit…

I’ve been up to the 58th floor, and the only SSS-class items I’ve seen are those used by Rilka.

Have you ever seen an SSS-class item besides the ones owned by NPCs in the first place?

Is it true that you can get it from drop items or quest ruins?

such a question.

Maybe it’s not possible to save it at this time.

I don’t know if it’s a conscience burst, but I think I can get about 5 if I scrape all the SSS-class.

Since there is a separate warehouse, I don’t know if it’s possible to do more than that.

It is sure to be of great help in climbing.

“That’s it!”

“Oh why, please stay with me for a while.”

“Geek!”

-slam!

The guy who slaps his cheeks all the time.

Is this frog ready to eat? Why are you doing this?

You almost turned your chin

what now? As a climber, you’re making a serious choice.

“no way.”

Deokchun is this guy!

Were you trying to enlighten me?

Deokchun was lifted up.

okay. I was momentarily shaken by the temptation in front of me.

A high-grade item. It is important. It’s definitely important. But were the really strong people obsessed with items?

Kildereth and Alios also climbed to the 99th floor, but did not use any special items.

The behiltan in front of me didn’t have an inch of hesitation in paying the price with this treasure.

Of course, it could be because they are NPCs and can no longer climb, but in other words, it can be said that the fall line set has a value that will not kneel compared to high-grade items.

and also.

What the sage on the 52nd floor said.

‘The reason item options don’t apply to status is because there’s no meaning if you take off your equipment.’

In the end, your strength is determined by you.

Whoops. okay. There is still a long way to go up, so let’s not be impatient.

You’ll get a chance to get a good item someday.

Before that, if I don’t become stronger myself, then it’s meaningless.

Deokchun is this guy! A big lesson for me…!

“Gww!”

– Wow!

– Awesome!

A guy who suddenly grinds his cheeks with his tongue.

I wake up.

I think this one seriously hit me.

It’s not a lie, the neck bone turned slightly.

Scared to touch his tingling cheek, Deokchun points out the window.

What is it?

I turned my head.

“What is that?”

I could see purple smoke rising from below.

Even at first glance, it is not a normal aircraft.

It was ominous, and although it was weak, it seemed that a groaning sound could be heard.

-Yi Yi Ying!

While being wary of an unknown shape, a siren sounds.

The red light flickers, and noisy footsteps echo in the hallway.

Behiltan also jumped up from his seat, hurriedly put on a coat and put on a mask.

-Kurrureung kung

The exhibition hall closes and turns into a wall again.

“this! Is it already that time? There should still be some time left.”

“Is there a problem!”

“Let’s talk about it later! Stay still for now!”

Before he can say anything, he storms out of the office.

I don’t know, but I know it’s an emergency.

By the way…

“If people don’t want to do something so strange, they want to do it.”

“That’s it.”

do you too

He raised the corner of his mouth and punched Deokchun.

Let’s go down and see what’s going on.
