Only I Have Two Towers Episode 224
Preliminary Survey
A few hours after returning from the Player Hunter Bureau.
A cheerful alarm announced midnight.
‘Now I can go without worry.’
Jinhyeok opened his eyes and looked around.
The tower climbing exclusive room that received the most attention in this remodeling.
He had applied all kinds of reinforcement materials so it could handle whatever state he came out in.
Not only was it easy to clean, but it was also equipped with the best ventilation system.
Thud thud thud thud thud thud thud!
Rough footsteps could be heard from outside the door.
The door burst open and the Kanmo Duo appeared.
“It’s tower climbing time!”
“We have to go up!!”
They were both soaking wet, having apparently been playing in the swimming pool.
“Why isn’t the today-tomorrow duo coming again! I’ll go catch them!”
“No. I said I’d go alone today. I don’t think there will be any fighting.”
“Eh?”
“Ah?”
Kancheo and Momo looked at each other in surprise.
They seemed to have forgotten while playing excitedly.
“Since you’re here, let’s go together.”
“Great!”
“Tower good!”
Seven enhancement tickets for the relevant section and one Tower of Despair ticket.
All materials for floor generation were gathered.
He used the Final Siege of Saintland generation ticket.
Ding!
[Using this will generate the unique floor ‘The Final Siege of Saintland’!]
[Once you decide to generate it, the generation ticket will be destroyed!]
[You can enter without ticket consumption until you succeed or fail to clear it!]
[The floor’s time only flows when a player is present!]
[Would you like to use the unique floor ‘The Final Siege of Saintland’ generation ticket?]
A smile formed on his lips.
If it weren’t for that last item, he would have had to postpone using the generation ticket for several days.
But now there was no need for that.
“Use.”
[The generation ticket is being used! It will take a few minutes to complete generation!]
Seven spheres appeared in the air.
Each sphere had a different appearance, representing floors 74 through 80.
Bright light shot up from where the generation ticket disappeared.
The light covered the mixed spheres and gradually changed to a mysterious color.
Before long, the mixing was complete and an ominously dark red sphere was finished.
Ding!
[The unique floor ‘The Final Siege of Saintland’ has been generated!]
[You are the first player to generate a unique floor!]
[This content will be recorded in the Achievement records!]
[The destruction of Saintland and the history of Mortarion, the Necromancer of the Century, will be recorded!]
[New floor information is being updated! From now on, all players can check information related to this floor!]
The system was putting quite a bit of effort into a floor that would disappear if cleared unsuccessfully.
Tower Site was going to be in an uproar again.
[You can now enter The Final Siege of Saintland.]
[Would you like to enter?]
He firmly tucked Kancheo and Momo under each arm and nodded.
The background instantly changed as they scattered into small particles.
Solarium, the capital of the holy kingdom Saintland, revealed itself.
Kancheo and Momo climbed onto both shoulders and looked around.
“Something feels gloomy!”
“Momo feels like getting depressed too!”
The atmosphere had definitely become darker.
Several times darker than when he visited the 72nd floor before.
Back then, there was still a will to fight desperately.
Now they were looking only at the ground with faces that had given up on life.
Ding!
[72 hours remain until Mortarion, the Necromancer of the Century, and his legion arrive!]
[The final countdown begins!]
A giant hourglass appeared in the air.
Sand grains that seemed to represent blood, dripping down in red.
“Captain. There’s something ahead. For some reason my fists are itching.”
He raised his head and looked up at the city wall.
It was the guide Konu.
What was this?
Instead of sprawling in his sleeping bag, he was looking outside.
He kicked off the ground and landed beside Konu.
“Hello, Konu.”
“You’ve arrived.”
“We meet often.”
Konu showed a sad expression and opened his mouth.
“I was camping by the river. I caught a big fish. I had just salted it properly and grilled it over a campfire, and was about to take my first bite.”
He looked down at both of Konu’s hands.
There was nothing there.
He must not have been able to bring it.
All that was there were traces of drool around his mouth that he had drooled while imagining the taste of fish.
Click!
Instead of consoling him, a slingshot was aimed at Konu’s temple.
“So what’s your point? Are you complaining or what!”
“Hiiiik! Complaining? I was saying I’m totally happy to serve you again!”
“Then say that from the beginning instead of laying groundwork!”
Yodel Ranger Vice-Captain Kancheo was strictly maintaining discipline today as well.
Looking at poor Konu, he made a resolution.
When he came back in, he would bring fresh fish and grill it for him.
“Konu, why is the castle atmosphere like this? It already looks like they’re facing the end times.”
“It’s been like this ever since the reconnaissance team returned.”
“What reconnaissance team nonsense are you spouting? The floor was just generated.”
“Is that so? I’ve been here since yesterday though?”
It seemed the guide was given a bit more time.
“Did the reconnaissance team come back badly injured?”
“That’s not it. But they say something unbelievable is coming. Apparently a certain area looks pitch black. Probably Sir Roberto has a crystal orb with reconnaissance information… Oh! Sir Roberto!!”
Konu jumped up and raised his voice.
Holy Knight Roberto was coming out of the royal castle and looking up.
Roberto’s face showed clear sadness as he approached.
“You have come, Hero. You risked your life to obtain the operation orders, and I am truly ashamed. We turned out to be a military force that cannot do anything.”
Roberto held out a palm-sized orb.
Memories slowly flowed from the orb.
It was what Saintland’s reconnaissance team had recorded.
‘Wow.’
I could understand why everyone had become gloomy.
Mortarion’s army staining everything within sight.
Despite marching, their numbers were so tremendous that no end appeared.
# Kraaaaaaah!!
A fierce roar burst forth.
Paladin Roberto unconsciously squeezed his eyes shut.
The nearby paladins reacted similarly.
“It’s over… We’re all going to die.”
“Oh God. How do you abandon us?”
The battle hadn’t even started yet, but morale was already rock bottom.
Roberto finished taking a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes.
He couldn’t bring himself to lift his head.
Because he was afraid to face it.
The sight of the Hero, who had been his last hope, being swallowed by despair.
‘This time, it can’t be helped.’
The Hero who had saved him with overwhelming martial prowess, and even succeeded in rooting out spies and stealing operation orders.
However, no matter how outstanding, he was still just one human with the boundaries of possible and impossible.
A situation where dozens of skull dragons, each one called a disaster even alone, were marching forward shrouded in death fog.
He could guarantee this wasn’t a level of military force that living beings could handle.
“What’s this? Isn’t this a dragon?”
“Totally small! Must be a baby dragon!”
“Is Momo stupid? What kind of dragon is that? It’s too small compared to the last one. It’s a winged worm.”
“Momo is not stupid!”
“Then instead of stupid, let’s say IQ 10.”
“What’s that! Are smaller numbers better?”
“The smaller the number, the closer to stupid it means.”
“Momo is not stuuuupid!!!”
The Khanmo duo got tangled up and rolled toward the city wall.
Was this reaction unexpected?
Paladin Roberto was watching with a dazed expression.
“Ahem!”
Jinhyeok cleared his throat a couple times and smiled.
“There are quite a lot, but not enough to be unbeatable.”
“Pardon…?”
Roberto shifted his gaze while maintaining a stunned expression.
He knew well that the man before him was a Hero.
Still, he was confused.
Whether he was speaking sincerely or lying to reassure him.
“I’ve caught ones several times bigger than this. Momooooo!”
“Why are you calling me!!”
Momo, covered in dust, came running.
Kancheo was sprawled out in a corner of the city wall.
“Open the Infinite Warehouse. Let’s show them the black dragon scales.”
Helping the struggling Momo, he spread out Black Dragon Drachan’s scales wide.
“!!!”
He seemed very surprised.
Roberto stepped backward with his mouth agape.
The nearby paladins also gathered one by one.
High-ranking clergy who had been continuing desperate meetings with Roberto also appeared from the royal castle.
Gulp!
Guide Konu looked at Jinhyeok with trembling eyes.
He had been wondering where he’d gone, but apparently he’d been hunting such monsters.
“D-Dragon Slayer.”
“The Hero… was a Slayer.”
“If he’s a Slayer, couldn’t he kill skull dragons too?”
Commotion arose here and there.
After a moment, the ranks parted and King Johan of Saintland appeared.
A handsome middle-aged man with brilliant blonde hair.
Knights knelt on one knee and paid respects to the king.
Jinhyeok’s eyes shook terrifyingly.
Should I follow their lead?!
“The Hero need not lower himself. Please remain as you are.”
Johan lightly bowed his head and stood beside him.
Johan lowered himself to touch the scales.
“Incredibly hard. How on earth did you defeat such a monster…?”
“It took quite a while. As you said, black dragon scales are incredibly hard. Hard enough to deflect all blades.”
He didn’t explain in more detail.
What King Johan and Saintland’s knights needed wasn’t tales of experience, but a spark of hope.
He pointed to the orb Roberto held.
“In contrast, skull dragons are just bones. You can cut them with swords or smash them with fists. So.”
He smiled.
“No matter how many come, you don’t need to worry. I dare promise you as a Hero that not a single one will reach Solarium. I’ll bring them all down before then.”
King Johan’s eyes stirred.
A voice without even a hint of wavering.
Perhaps that’s why.
Something that had grown cold began to revive.
“I can handle the death fog too. But I’ll need a little help from Saintland for this.”
Johan straightened up and spoke with a determined expression.
“Just tell me what you need. I swear by the king’s name. If it can help the Hero, I’ll do anything.”
He smiled brightly.
This was the answer he’d been waiting for.
“I need equipment imbued with divine power. May I take as much as needed?”
“Of course. Solarium has the largest armory in all of Saintland. I’ll have it opened for you right away.”
“Can I take quite a lot? I need juuuust a bit much.”
“Except for consumables like arrows and javelins, everything has been distributed. What’s in the warehouse are spares. You may take as much as you need.”
Gulp!
Guide Konu broke out in cold sweat.
Because of his small stature looking up, he was able to notice.
The moment King Johan of Saintland’s answer was heard, the corners of Jinhyeok and Greedy Collector Momo’s mouths soared sky-high.
The terrible greed emanating from there.
What kind of scheme were they plotting this time?
