Only I Have Two Towers Episode 166
The Whole World is a Runner
[You have annihilated the Yeti Squad!]
[Inuit Tribe unit casualty rate: 0%]
[Outpost destruction rate: 0%]
[The Yeti Squad couldn’t even set foot on the outpost boundary line! A perfect battle!]
[A one-sided battle where you annihilated the enemy before even getting a good look at them! Noir, the Inuit Tribe commander who witnessed this battle, has made a vow! He will turn everything he saw into a song to preserve it for generations! All Inuit will hum this song!]
[An SSS+ grade is awarded for this remarkable battle!]
“Mm!”
He nodded with a satisfied expression.
But a song? What’s this about?
“Captain.”
While he was puzzled, Kancheo’s voice reached him.
When he turned his gaze, a tiny thumb was extended toward him.
“This is totally it! Even cooler than what appeared in the animation!”
“Ah, it wasn’t that much.”
He said while vigorously patting Kancheo.
This kind of praise always felt good to hear.
[You have cleared the 63rd Floor of the Tower of Despair!]
[Unique trait ‘Level Matching’ activated! Seira Kinketon, who has the highest level, is selected as the standard.]
[Additional experience points are calculated based on acquired experience points.]
[You have gained a massive amount of additional experience points!]
[Level up! Current level: 92]
[Level up! Current level: 93]
[Level up! Current level: 94]
[All stats rise simultaneously!]
[Maximum mana increases from 50,000 to 100,000! You can summon more dolls!]
Following that, level-up messages for the other friends also appeared.
[Seira Kinketon / Current level: 201 / Experience: 31%]
[Kancheo / Current level: 100 / Experience: 0%]
[Dalk Castro / Current level: 122 / Experience: 0%]
[Momo / Current level: 122 / Experience: 0%]
[Elia Posen / Current level: 111 / Experience: 0%]
[Camella Shirin / Current level: 112 / Experience: 0%]
Despite the considerable level difference, this much experience gain.
The Level Matching trait is sweet today as well.
[You acquire byproducts from 63rd floor monsters!]
[You acquire a large amount of Snowy Plains Yeti hide!]
[You acquire a large amount of Snowy Plains Yeti teeth!]
An enormous number of byproducts entering the inventory.
Applause came naturally.
And after a moment.
“All done! It got super fast!”
Momo, who had briefly disappeared, appeared.
Huh? Already?
He raised his head to look at the place where the Yeti Squad had been sprawled out.
All that was visible were bones left lying around.
The mountain of corpses that had been piled high had been cleanly cleared away by someone’s skillful handiwork.
‘Amazing.’
After being promoted to Epic, the already fast processing had become even faster.
Completed with just one sweep.
“Look at this! It’s totally stiff!”
Momo opened the Bag of Peltz, the Infinite Warehouse Owner, to show him.
The condition was so excellent it couldn’t even be compared to the byproducts the system had just given.
He could already picture it.
The face of Yoo Su-yeon from the Auction House, grinning with delight.
“And I picked this up!”
Momo, who had been rummaging through the bag, held out a large axe.
Noir, startled, rushed over in one bound.
“This is Yerga’s axe!?”
“What’s Yerga that you’re so surprised, old man?”
“It’s a title that only the most outstanding Yeti among Yeti warriors can receive. Countless Inuit lost their lives to him. He must have been mixed in with that group…”
Noir, trailing off his words, looked at Jinhyeok.
It meant the battle was so overwhelming that Yerga’s presence didn’t even stand out.
“Let me see. Yerga’s axe is crude but contains the cold of the snowy plains.”
“Oh, yes.”
He quickly took it and examined the options.
[Axe of Yerga, Greatest Warrior of the Yeti Tribe / Grade: Unique / Level Requirement: 60]
# Attack Power 200.
# A crude axe made by refining iron from the snowy plains.
## Unique Skill: Ice Wave
### 10% chance to emit snowy plains waves when striking.
### Enemies with low resistance freeze solid.
## Can be used outside the Tower.
Oh. It can be used outside the Tower.
If he put it up for sale, it would sell for a high price.
He gripped the axe and swung it around.
“Hmm. It’s awkward for direct use.”
Never mind that it wasn’t a sword, the grip felt really poor.
A weapon should make you feel “this is mine!” the moment you hold it.
Rejected.
However.
[Yerga’s Axe has been added to Weapon Collecting!]
[Weapon Collecting 5/7]
# Ganjangmakya
# Salamanca
# Perrakan
# Kamachi
# Yerga’s Axe
It’s useful here.
A festival of countless shooting weapons with 5% lava eruption and 10% ice waves.
Just thinking about it was satisfying.
He pulled the beaming Momo over.
“Momo, when are you going to organize the warehouse? Should we go out and do it together?”
Peltz’s bag had a completely different size and structure of space from regular subspace inventories.
A system that would become a complete mess if you just stuffed things in recklessly.
“It’s okay! Momo will do it alone!”
Momo wiggled her chubby little hands to show him.
Well, since she was such a skillful friend, organization done by others might not meet her standards.
“Then I’ll look forward to the next battle as well.”
After finishing with a handshake with Commander-in-Chief Noir.
[Exiting the 63rd Floor of the Tower of Despair!]
He exited the tower.
A couple of hours after Jinhyeok finished his tower climb.
Strange rumors began circulating on Tower Site.
That all the Inuit tribe members, regardless of floor, had started singing strange songs.
@ Bullshit, no way. Here you go again spouting random crap just because you’re anonymous.
@ I’ve been through the entire snowy area, what bullshit are you talking about lol I’m too busy fighting to listen to music, this crap
At first, most public opinion was that it was a lie.
Because not a single person had ever heard it before.
Songs sung by the Inuit tribe or anything like that.
But not long after, a video was uploaded to NewTube.
It was a famous Korean NewTuber channel with 1 million subscribers.
And at this moment.
“Ugh, SSS+ again. Aren’t you tired of it?”
Cheon Se-yeon, who had finished her daily routine and was lying on her bed, stuck out her tongue.
Runner Yoo Jin-hyeok, who achieved SSS+ on every single floor without exception.
Even though it was clearly a nearly impossible grade, it now felt almost natural.
‘No wait, he wouldn’t be tired of it.’
Se-yeon quickly corrected herself.
SSS+, after all. It would probably feel thrilling every time you see it.
‘I’m so jealous.’
The Tower of Despair system where the Achievement gauge you gain varies depending on the grade you receive.
Jinhyeok had probably already received several times the boxes that ordinary players would need to clear dozens of floors to get just one.
‘Huh? What’s this now?’
A hot post that had just appeared caught Se-yeon’s attention as she was aimlessly browsing Tower Site.
‘The Inuit tribe is singing songs?’
She thought someone was bullshitting again.
Se-yeon had met hundreds of Inuit while climbing the tower.
Among them, she had never seen even one humming quietly, let alone singing.
She clicked on the post.
She was curious to see what kind of nonsense they were trying to pull this time.
‘It’s a video? They put some effort into this.’
When she played it, the sound of a small ukulele accompanied by a rough voice flowed out.
It was a song composed like a gentle story.
# In the snowy battlefield where the Yeti Squad was charging. Under the cold moonlight, hundreds of swords rose up.
# The wave of swords reflecting the moonlight was truly beautiful.
# The ground trembling from the Yeti Squad began to be felt underfoot. We were afraid. Of those guys who would come charging to steal our precious things.
# But we couldn’t face the yetis.
# Because hundreds of swords shot out and covered the yetis before they could cross the boundary. It began simultaneously.
# An overwhelming massacre by swords drawing beautiful trajectories like playing a fast melody.
# The being who caused this massacre is called this by outsiders.
# The Tower Slaughterer Runner.
Se-yeon bolted upright.
She replayed the last part.
She hadn’t misheard.
They definitely said Runner.
She scrolled down.
As expected, the comment section was already in chaos.
@ What? It wasn’t bullshit? It’s real?
This bastard was foaming at the mouth calling it fake earlier, but now that videos keep getting uploaded, he immediately shuts up, huh?
No no, shut your mouth. Lies were the original truth anyway.
Nah nah nah, I don’t accept that, so shut your mouth before I feel like slapping you.
@ Friends who don’t believe me should use a ticket and go check out the 6th floor. Even that badger driving the carriage – Konu or Konyu or whatever – is humming that song lol
When I asked him about it, he was so shocked he couldn’t even sleep? This badger bastard usually passes out sleeping whenever he’s bored, mission or whatever, but judging by his reaction, this is the real deal.
@ The whole world is Runner.
We live in the age of runners. Anyone who disagrees gets their ass kicked.
“Holy shit.”
Se-yeon ran her hand through her hair.
Related videos were continuously being uploaded on NewTube too.
It wasn’t a lie. It was real.
Soon after, internet news started reporting on it too.
Why such a fuss over just one song?
It was completely justified.
Since the Tower of Despair first appeared until now, it had never happened even once.
Tower residents praising a player’s prowess, that is.
She quickly opened CocoaTalk and sent a message to Jinhyeok.
# What is this! A world first!? What the hell did you do!
After pressing the send button, she wondered if she had made too much of a fuss.
Se-yeon tried to edit it but stopped, thinking that would be even more embarrassing.
‘Damn, he’s not checking again.’
It seemed impossible to chat about related topics.
But still, hundreds of swords crossing through the air under the cold moonlight.
How did he do that?
As far as Se-yeon knew, Jinhyeok didn’t have such a skill.
Wanting to say something, she accessed Tower Site again.
One rebuttal comment that had been posted in the meantime.
@ Yeah, it’s bullshit. It’s manipulated.
She quickly pressed the reply button.
The next denier who’s gonna get slapped.
Se-yeon smiled at her satisfying comment writing skills.
No no, you’re gonna start with a slap right away?
No no no, shouldn’t you give a warning first?
No no no no, do you think the runner will praise you for slapping them? Look at this misguided fan mentality.
‘Yeah, Runner is my friend.’
A strange sense of superiority welled up.
‘Ah.’
Se-yeon quickly put down her phone.
There was no human more disgusting to look at than someone showing off with connections, and she had done it herself.
Of course, regardless of this realization, her face was full of smiles.
Anyway, this person Yoo Jin-hyeok.
He’s really amazing.
“Phew, so refreshing. So refreshing.”
“The water temperature was really good.”
A hot bath enjoyed after the snowy plains battle.
I realized once again.
Paradise is not in a distant place.
“Close your eyes. The towel might hit you like last time.”
“Understood.”
I rolled up the towel and dried off Kancheo’s moisture.
His whole body was fluffy and soaking wet.
Ring ring ring.
Dark, who was on the sofa, threw him his phone.
“Huh?”
Jinhyeok tilted his head after checking the message.
A message from Team Leader Jin Yun-ho.
Unlike usual, the word “urgent” was written there.
