Episode 3
The level returned to 1, but it was a very advantageous setting to still be able to use the remaining points.
Of course, the section where experience points are accumulated the most is level 1.
The slower you level up, the faster you can collect points than other players.
Now, the question is which stat to put the points on.
I checked my status window once again.
Occupation: Gladiator
Level: 1
HP: 100%
MP: 10
Stamina: 14 Strength: 11 Dexterity: 7 Senses: 8
skill
What I wanted to raise the most was MP, but it was impossible to raise it using points.
There were four options to choose from: Che, Geun, Min, and Gam.
In these types of games, the most attractive options are often strength or agility.
Strength will guarantee powerful attack power,
Agility will increase your speed and evasion.
If your occupation is a gladiator, strength and agility will be even more important.
Because you have to step up to the front and act as a dealer.
In a moment of worry, I suddenly turned my attention to
[Strategy: Spend all 60 minutes of the tutorial and catch as many monsters as possible.]
A strategy book that only I can see.
“To catch as many monsters as possible… … .”
In this situation, it was difficult to worry for a long time.
I quickly distributed the remaining points.
[Sense has increased by 2.]
In the end, my choice was ‘feel’.
In order to catch as many monsters as possible in the tutorial, we decided that discovering as many monsters was a priority.
The stat that directly affects exploration is probably senses.
Since the monsters that appear in the tutorial are not that powerful, I was confident that I would be able to defeat them even if I did not increase other stats.
Of course, my judgment may be wrong.
If that’s the case, next time you’ll need to focus on strength or agility.
Since you are level 1 anyway, you will be able to collect points quickly.
I don’t know if it’s an exquisite coincidence, but I see a one-horned raccoon wandering around 50 meters away at 10 o’clock.
I don’t know if it’s because of my mood, but my eyesight seems to have improved a little.
* * *
[Re-level the player.]
[Level has reached 1.]
Already leveled up four times.
But my level was still 1.
I took a picture of the points that were accumulating, and before I knew it, my sense stat had reached 16.
Since it was a +8 effect, I could definitely feel the improved senses before I knew it.
My eyesight got better, my ears became brighter, and I felt like I could vaguely sense something like energy.
Perhaps for that reason, I was actually able to spot one-horned raccoons without difficulty wherever I went.
KEEEK!
Once again, a one-horned raccoon was killed by my sword.
Hunting monsters has become increasingly easier without having to increase your strength or agility.
Although it is not revealed in the stats, the combat experience is clearly accumulating. The effect of that experience was something that could never be ignored.
* * *
[Remaining time: 26 minutes]
As I continued through the tutorial, a problem arose.
There was still a lot of time left, but the one-horned raccoon was no longer visible, perhaps because its seeds had dried up.
If you can’t find it even with your greatly expanded senses, it may really not exist.
At this point, my eyes turned to another option for clearing the tutorial.
“To reach the end of the forest path.”
It might be better to end it now than to stay here pointlessly.
But the moment I had that thought.
[Strategy: Use up all 60 minutes of the tutorial to catch as many monsters as possible.]
A strategy book with the same content was sent to me again.
Don’t finish it yet?
I thought again about the meaning of the strategy book phrase.
‘As many monsters as possible… … .’
Obviously, a push notification wouldn’t have popped up on me for no reason.
This probably means that monsters still exist in this forest.
First of all, it would be a good idea to follow the advice in the strategy book.
So far, I have never suffered any loss from hearing this.

In fact, you don’t have much to lose by wandering aimlessly for the remaining 26 minutes.
With that in mind, I continued to wander the forest path.
I expanded all my senses and searched every corner of the forest path.
Hundreds of millions!
Hundreds of millions!
As time passed, it became more and more difficult to cut down only the weeds.
However, the one-horned raccoon could not be found.
Even before there is only one minute left.
[Time remaining: 1 minute]
[The monster does not exist.]
“what? “It didn’t exist anymore!”
For the first time, I felt deceived by the strategy book.
But the feeling of resentment lasted only for a moment, and the message continued.
[A hidden quest has been created.]
[Defeat the boss monster within 60 seconds.]
[Success Reward: Gold]
Hidden quest?
It’s never easy to do in a real game.
The current situation was not much different.
If it weren’t for the strategy book, I would have cleared the tutorial a long time ago.
A hidden piece that can never be found.
Maybe it’s a real computer game. In an apocalyptic situation that has suddenly arrived, it is unlikely that any idiot would last 60 minutes in this forest to catch more monsters.
“It’s a boss monster… … .”
A huge one-horned raccoon had already appeared before my eyes.
Perhaps because of the effectiveness of the game system, I didn’t feel afraid.
Rather, my mind was focused on the gold I would receive after catching that thing.
Even if you say the boss, a raccoon is a raccoon.
Since I’m only level 2, 60 seconds is enough.
[Beginner swordsmanship is demonstrated.]
Hundreds of millions!
Hundreds of millions!
Several flowing straight lines were drawn in the air.
Blood splatters.
After all, you don’t lose anything by doing what the strategy guide tells you to do.
It seemed like gold was right in front of me.
* * *
[Tutorial has ended.]
I made good use of the 60 minutes of the tutorial.
Although the face level is still at 1, I actually leveled up six times, and even succeeded in the hidden quest at the end.
Actually my level is 7.
As soon as the tutorial ended, the background changed in an instant.
I’m out of my mind.
[Welcome to those who have successfully completed the tutorial.]
[This is the tower lobby and you belong to area C-2567.]
The message said things I couldn’t understand.
But there was one fact that was even more confusing than the content of the message.
people.
Strangers who seemed to be in the same situation as me were in the same space as me.
Including me, there were thirteen men and eleven women.
At this moment, all twenty-four people had similar expressions.
Faces that look like their souls have run away from home.
No one could easily say anything.
They just look at each other blankly.
A moment of silence followed.
[From now on, players can check each other’s information at all times.]
“uh?!”
“what’s this!”
Suddenly, subtitle information was created above everyone’s heads.
What you see is the name and level.
For example,
Of course, I was able to see other people’s detailed information through
“Has everyone finished the tutorial?”
It was Kim Jun-seong who broke the silence.
At level 4, my occupation is archer.
It is impressive that the abilities are very good and the balance is well balanced.
“I don’t know!”
“Honestly, I can’t even believe this is real right now.”
As expected, everyone was out of their wits.
Even though I finished the tutorial, there is no way I can get used to this situation right away.
In that respect, I find myself a little strange.
Even though I knew in advance that the end would come, I am too calm now.
“I want to go home!”
Some looked almost like they were crying.
But we’ve only just finished the tutorial.
This game probably hasn’t even started in earnest yet.
“This is
Suddenly, a voice came from behind us.
It was something foreign.
Something that walks on two legs but is not human.
He was about 130 centimeters tall and had a rabbit-shaped mask on his face.
The shape was even translucent like a hologram.
But since when have you been here?
“What is it? you!”
one of us shouted.
Junho Seo. He is also a level 4 gladiator like me.
“Me? “Let’s call him a junior administrator in this tower.”
“So you’re saying this is really inside the tower?”
“It seems like some people have clogged ear holes, so I’ll say it again. “Welcome to the Tower of the End.”
The rabbit grinned at us and continued talking.
“There is no need to be too wary of me. Because it won’t hurt you. I just appeared before you to say welcome. “Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!”
“Then why are we suddenly here? “I was definitely working at the company!”
I was working out at the gym.
It is natural that everyone is unable to accept this situation.
Because you would never have imagined that the end would come.
“Before that, let me ask you one thing. “Do you believe that this situation is the end?”
“yes.”
I was the only one who answered the rabbit’s question without hesitation.
Most of them still look dumbfounded.
“Hoo! Hoyoung Lee. Excellent! Now, let me give you a chance to ask a question. “If you have any questions, feel free to ask.”
I was wondering if this was really the end.
“Are all Earthlings in the same situation as us?”
I think that’s probably the case, but I wanted to confirm.
“yes. that’s right. Not a single person is left out. “All Earthlings are now inside the tower.”
It was like that too.
Tower-shaped structures appeared all over the world before the apocalypse.
There is no need to physically question whether they can accommodate all Earthlings.
Just looking at the tutorial, this is a place where the laws of nature are ignored.
“As I said, this is the Tower of Doom and you are playing a game. Hunt, level up, climb the tower and survive. For your information, many Earthlings have already died in the tutorial.”
At those words, many faces passed through my mind.
Although I am an orphan and have no family, it is natural to wonder about the safety of my loved ones.
“What if I climb to the end of the tower? “Is that the ending of the game?”
It was also me who asked the question this time.
I don’t know if the rabbit guy will answer.
“That’s a secret. Kkkkkkkkk. For now, survive. You might find out when you climb the tower. Please note that each floor of the tower has its own theme. ah! “Of course, how many floors the tower has is also a secret!”
The way he spoke was clearly unlucky.
He said he was the manager of the tower, so he just listened in silence.
“ruler! “Well, now that I’ve given you my welcome, I’m just about to leave. Is there anyone who can help me?”
Helping disappear?
It was a word whose meaning I could not understand.
“Oh! Asking for help meant killing me. Then it can disappear quickly. Kkkkkkkkk. Do you know anything else? “If you help me, there will be a special reward.”
Although the rabbit is about the size of an elementary school student, he is a low-level manager of this tower.
Naturally, no one dared to do it.
But I can see it with my eyes.
That guy’s status window and abilities.
Occupation: Manager (junior)
Level: 55
HP: 100%
MP: 0
Stamina: 0 Strength: 0 Dexterity: 0 Senses: 0
※ It appears in the form of a hologram rather than the main body, so it has no combat power.
“I do it.”
Since the rabbit even mentioned a special reward, there was no reason not to do it.
But everyone looked surprised by what I said.
What they are looking at is only the level of the rabbit guy.
It was clear that everyone was stunned by the violent number 55.
The rabbit guy looked at me and said with an interesting smile.
“You’re only level 1?”
This must have been a test for me.
Anyone, regardless of level, will be able to kill this guy.
“Is level important when doing good deeds?”
“… … That’s not true. “Tsk!”
As expected, this rabbit guy’s speaking style was unlucky.
