Stuck in The Tower

Chapter 73 Freezing and Crushing

My current abilities can’t handle him.

To be precise, the quest could not succeed no matter how he suppressed it.

Even at this moment when I’m lying around with him, the guardians are entering the village.

We need a way to catch it faster and more reliably.

At least, it was balanced until now, but the momentum declined as an object that had just been separated from the previous one entered the battle.

The Creature Priest is fighting hard, but how long will he be able to hold on…

“I need more powerful holy power and cold power.”

The blessing that the Creature Priest bestowed on the Frost Flame Sword alone was not enough.

It would be nice if I had skills related to cold, but unfortunately my skills are focused on explosions.

It is not compatible with the holy weapons made by the Church of Fire.

Even if you use payback to wipe it out in one go…

“There’s no guarantee that it won’t separate into multiple pieces.”

Didn’t it appear in the information? It won’t stop until the holy power flowing inside runs out.

The only thing that can suppress the divine power is the stronger divine power or the magic that demons use.

I don’t have many options.

I have to strengthen the blessing the Creature Priest gave me somehow.

“Is there?”

Not with what I have.

There is only one way left.

Required skills appear in the skill book obtained on the 10th floor.

If not, expect it to be created through activated skill synthesis.

It was a matter of chance and luck.

[Luck stat 5]

I had numerical luck.

After thinking about it, I struck the agent of purification and widened the distance.

“Ooooooh!”

He also let out a warning beep as if he knew that I wasn’t an easy opponent, but he didn’t attack me hastily.

This is why momentum is so important.

Thank you for giving me time to work.

“open.”

I took out the wrapped skill books from the treasure bag.

Two things I got while holding the processing pipe.

One thing I received as a prize for winning the arena event.

According to my will, the name of the skill book that had been hidden shone.

Normally, I would have had a good time checking them out one by one, but I don’t have the time right now.

[Back of the Head (D)]

-Increased damage upon surprise attack.

– Why don’t you try stabbing an unwary opponent in the back?

– If the target is a friend or lover, the effect is even better.

[Cutting 切削 (C)]

-Additional damage to attacks using blades.

– Even if the blade is not sharp, it can cut the target it hits even if it is hard.

[Ice (F)]

– Freezes the target or creates ice.

First of all, it wasn’t bad for the three skill books obtained after processing the processing tube.

Not only does he have C-class attack skills, but he also has back-of-the-head skills that can come in handy depending on the situation.

Ice, whatever.

“All that’s left is a B-class skill book.”

The key is what kind of skill Kildereth gave.

He also has good sense, so there is a high possibility that he gave something useful.

-Paaaaaa!

After all, this is a B grade.

The effect exploded and the name of the skill book was revealed.

[Splinter (B)]

– Shocks and splits the opponent.

– The range and destructive power are determined by horse power.

“Good?”

It is a versatile skill. Depending on the situation, it can be used for attack or for drilling through rocks or hard ground.

However, in the present situation, it is not very useful.

If that’s the case, you’ll have to compete in skill synthesis.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 8]

It exploded toward the agent of purification that was creeping up.

I fell back and looked at the four skill books in my hand.

The situation is bad, but there is one more thing to check.

“Is it possible to use skill synthesis in the skill book state?”

There is a reason why I did not learn the skill right away.

If so, it means a lot.

It’s because I’ll be able to give the skills I created through skill synthesis not only to myself but to others as well.

You can sell or barter for a fair price.

That there is another route to earn points.

I couldn’t help it if it didn’t work, but I thought it would work.

[Skill Synthesis (S)]

Activated powers.

A list of emerging skills.

The skill book in my hand.

-Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Of course,

there were faint clusters of light emanating from everywhere.

It was clear what it meant.

This means that it can be synthesized even if it is not cooked.

[The eyes that watch the S-class power star are activated.]

[The Luck stat reacts.]

The dim beam of light intensified.

As if telling them to synthesize them.

The halo of light that had been intertwined was reduced to two lines.

“synthesis!”

I used skill synthesis without delay.

Skills were fused together with the bursting light.

[Pretend to be dead (D) Lv.1]

[Back of the head (D)]

[Combine the two skills.]

A skill I learned but never used. pretend to be dead

Newly acquired skill book. Back of the head.

Pretending to be dead from the skill list permeates the skill book.

At the same time, the name of the skill book was erased and a new text was written…

“Crazy.”

[Return of the Dead (A)]

-In case of death, all stats increase by 300%. (Limited to 10 minutes)

-All depuff removal and immunity. (Limited to 10 minutes)

– Recovery and buff amount increased by 300%. (Limited to

10 minutes) It was an A-class skill.

Eye-opening effects.

Even compared to other A-class skills, it boasted a much higher level of performance.

Because there was such a penalty.

“It’s a death sentence.”

A skill that cannot be used in a normal way.

Even without that condition, it was a skill that could look beyond A.

It didn’t matter to me though.

What’s important is next.

[Ice (F)]

[Splinter (B)]

[Combine the two skills.]

“Is it possible?”

I waited patiently for the results.

Originally, it is impossible. Because the difference between the two skill levels was too great.

[Skill Combination (S)]

– Combines two skills.

– A new skill will be created if the level of the skill is the same or if there is a difference of one level.

-If there is a difference of more than two grades, the level goes up using the lower grade skill as a material.

As stated in the description, the combination itself is impossible if there is a difference in grade.

It is said that the ice will be absorbed in fragmentation.

However, the Luck stat and power gave me a signal to combine like that.

There must be a reason.

I bit my lip and waited for further notifications.

[Grade gap is huge!]

[Ice (F) is absorbed by Shard (B)!]

“Damn it. I can’t either.”

sighed briefly.

The vigilant agent of purification is coming.

the village is burning

There is no time. We have to bump into each other…

“Huh?”

I hesitated.

The notification window kept popping up.

[Error!]

[Skill not learned!]

[Fragmentation (B) does not have a level!]

[Unable to absorb.]

[Combine the two skills!]

“Finished!”

I cheered.

impossible conditions. It has been done.

Just in case you have a problem.

-The notification window for Jijijijik

was ominously distorted.

A dingy, dead color.

A hologram that cuts out like a TV whose signal cuts out.

The same phenomenon as when you obtained two powers the other day happened.

[Confirmed the use of abnormal powers.]

[Examined the legitimacy.]

The letters twisted and shook ominously.

vague fear. The feeling of being attacked by an indescribable will.

The threat at the instinctive level calmly scanned my body.

“Boo.”

Has the agent of purification also shrunk? I did not dare to run and hesitated.

“That’s right.”

Deokchun let out a low cry as he puffed up his body.

The only being in this place who can be alert and move.

It was only Deokchun who had the chaos attribute.

I feel the power holding me tight, perhaps to protect me.

tense time.

-I

heard a bell that didn’t match the atmosphere of the ring at all.

The black dead hologram has returned to normal.

[Cho Hyeon-soo’s hidden quest in progress.]

[Qualification check.]

[No problem.]

[I wish you a safe climb to the 100th floor!]

The notification window disappears with a lively sentence.

The pressure was gone and strength returned to my body.

He let out a long breath. I couldn’t even breathe properly.

‘This is probably not the hidden quest the notification window was talking about.’

I’m talking about the hidden quest I received when I got two powers at the same time as the 6th floor awakening.

A quest that gave infinite coins.

The quest that forced me to go up to the 100th floor.

There are not one or two awkward corners, but let’s forget about them for a moment.

“Because it’s important to finish you now.”

I reached out to synthesize the reactivated skills.

Ice (F) shredding (B).

The result of combining the two skills was captured.

[Frozen Break (A)]

– Freezes the target and destroys it.

-Additional damage to frozen targets.

-Chwaaaaagh!

[Learn Frozen Break (A).]

[Learn Return of the Dead (A).]

[Learn Cutting (C).]

I opened all three skill books.

Knowledge that permeates your head at once.

sensations in the body.

It was the moment when I had another ability.

“Let’s finish it quickly.”

It was the moment when the foundation for hunting the agent of purification was laid.

The screams of the Creature Priest could be heard from afar.

The noise I had heard earlier had gone.

Not a good situation.

“Deok Chun, please support me.”

“To the ark.”

I rushed towards the agent of purification.

The guy who entered battle mode reacted.

He wielded a hammer and attacked as if crushing everything.

[Dig (F) Lv.4]

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv.8]

He dug a trap and hit it at the same time.

[Water (F) Lv. 4]

[Water (F) Lv.4]

[Water (F) Lv.4]

-Cheeeeeeik!

I poured water on him in succession.

Moisture that evaporates and disappears as soon as it touches it.

Even so, there is always some left over.

at least from the bottom.

– Kaaang!

Hammer and sword collided.

Although he was the agent of purification boasting an overwhelming weight.

[Heavy bracelet (C)]

-Kook-gu-guk

I also had increased my weight to the point where I couldn’t be pushed easily.

A very heavy body.

As the battle continued, the ground sank and a haze rose from the scorching heat.

-Breaking magic into the

frost flame sword, it exploded with cold air.

Thin ice forms on the hands of the man holding the hammer.

It is also insufficient in its current state.

“Tweet!”

Deokchun spat at the guy’s eyes.

Saliva with a strong acidity.

The agent of purification twisted his body making a grotesque sound.

Because regeneration is regeneration, and the body corroding is another thing.

This moment when a brief gap is created is the timing.

[Fire Bomb (B) Lv. 8]

It bounced forward with an explosion.

The moment you give your strength and hit that guy’s hammer.

The guy who felt the crisis ran out of control.

– Kwaaaaaaagh!

A huge amount of heat gushed out from the cracks in the body.

The flame imbued with divine power was an intense attack in itself, and the hot steam was enough to cook the skin of living beings.

[Fire Resistance (E) Lv.9]

[Skill Level Up!]

[Fire Resistance (E) Lv.10]

[The level has reached its limit.]

[Please raise the skill level.]

As if to prove it, the fire resistance level is rising .

I can’t stand this alone.

The skin quickly dries out, cracks, and shows signs of blistering.

But don’t worry.

“It only takes once.”

A way to catch him has already been prepared.

The body becomes lighter.

[Sprinting Fog (B) Lv.3]

For a fleeting moment, no attack can work on me.

because.

[Due to fog, death is judged.]

[Cannot be designated as an attack target.]

Right now, I’m not a living thing or anything.

and that condition.

[Return of the dead 亡者歸還 (A) Lv.1]

[You have been judged dead]

[The skill is activated!]

It was a trigger to open the newly acquired skill.

[Fogization ends.]

[Return of the dead effect!]

[All stats increase by 300%.]

[All depuffs and immunity are removed.]

[Burns are healed.]

[Recovery and buff amount increased by 300%.]

[ The blessings of the Creature Priest are tripled!]

The timing of reaching him right in front of me was the beginning of a change in which all my stats tripled.

A short time of 10 minutes. I have the specs to take down a 4-star monster.

[Frozen Break (A) Lv.1]

A powerful skill to freeze him.

[Frost Flame Sword (A)]

A sword with cold power.

[Creature Priest’s Blessing]

The divine power of the Ice Goddess is combined.

– Close to close!

A 4-star divine weapon.

He immediately froze the agent of purification.

The guy who freezes like a frozen screen.

The ice that covered his entire body was like a glacier, and the entire area was frozen with all lights turned off.

Is it because water was sprinkled on it beforehand? The power was great.

-Kaaaaang!

The agent of purification, frozen to the limit, shattered as if bursting.

Head and arms soaring into the air.

Body and legs dismantled into dozens of pieces.

The molten iron that flowed like blood cooled and hardened, and the joints could not withstand the load and broke.

The moment when ice fragments glistening in the light are scattered.

[You defeated the agent of purification!]

[Amazing achievement!]

[10,000 points will be paid!]

[Obtain the essence of fire!]

Achievement rewards poured in.
