Chapter 229 tower of exams

– What do you mean?

“The future has changed a lot these days, so I didn’t know much.”

– Well, it was.

“Unlike that, the vibration that occurred this time is an event that I am aware of.”

The future has changed thanks to the use of the information before the regression to do various things, and the recent events are very different from those in the previous life.

However, the time when the vibration just occurred was not different from the previous life. You’ll have to check it to find out, but it’s probably just as it happened in a previous life.

– So what the hell is this vibration? please tell me soon

“Wait a minute.”

Baek Woojin turned on the real-time TV on his smartphone and then switched the channel to DBS.

-drama? Are you going to watch the drama now?

“Because wait.”

Because it was daytime, the drama was being rebroadcast. However, in less than a minute, the emergency breaking news subtitles appeared and the screen turned into news.

[This is urgent breaking news. A seismic intensity level of 5.3 occurred in Seoul.]

Perhaps because of urgent preparation, the announcer, whose head was not neatly organized, began to read the script in a calm voice that was different from his appearance.

[However, this vibration was not a natural earthquake, but a vibration caused by an unknown huge tower rising up in Gwanghwamun. I’ll show you the screen right now.]

The announcer disappeared and the view of Gwanghwamun appeared on the screen.

At the center of the 10-lane road was a huge tower that rose in a spiral. As the announcer said, the tower soared from the ground, so the floor was open to the outside.

– What is that?

“The Tower of Trials.”

Baek Woojin opened his mouth as he looked at the strangely shaped tower on the screen. The shape of the tower was exactly the same as the tower of trial he remembered.

-exam? Are the monsters pouring out from there?

“No, there are no monsters in that tower. That tower is a boon.”

-OK? Benefits?

“The Tower of Testing gives ten tests to those who enter the tower, and the first person who passes all the tests to reach the top floor is rewarded with great rewards.”

-It’s a rewarding tower, so there’s really nothing special about it.

There was no such tower in the Marutun Continent. There were many incidents there too, but nothing as strange as here.

– Have you ever entered that tower in a previous life?

“Of course I couldn’t. It was just the entrance cut.”

The desire to enter was like a chimney, but at the time, even the auror could not be used properly, so there was no opportunity to enter.

-Then I don’t know about the inside of the tower.

“I have heard of various tests, but the tests are different for each person anyway.”

People who entered and left the tower talked about different kinds of tests, but they were all different in circumstances and difficulty. Even if you enter the tower, the same test cannot come out.

-Is the tower’s test decided arbitrarily?

“right. I heard that there is no test like it, except against other people.”

-Even so, it doesn’t matter what happens as long as your current strength is yours.

Baek Woojin is not only strong in force, but he is a monster among monsters that do not work with magic, poison, barriers, or even the true method. Whatever test you take at the tower, you will be able to pass it easily.

-Who conquered that tower in your previous life?

“Gwangryong.”

Baek Woojin looked up at the top of the Tower of Trial and said the name of the man who conquered it in a previous life.

– Gwangryong? Where did you hear it?

“You must have heard it. Because he is a disciple of Daeyeonmunju.”

-Then is he doing something with that zodiac?

“right. But it’s a little different from the others.”

Baek Woojin uploaded a photo of Gwangryong using his smartphone. A tall man wearing a Hwangryong’s mask appeared on the screen.

“Kwangryong is the first disciple of Daeyeonmunju. He is a man who has learned everything from him.”

As soon as Gwangryong awakened his powers, he heard a monster sound, and unlike his other disciples, he was a special warrior who was learning all the martial arts and secrets of Daeyeon Munju.

“Once upon a time, I heard that my older brother and I were rivals. People are hitting Gwangryong higher because the older brother is still stuck in front.”

The difference in skills between Gwangryong, who is constantly being taught by Daeyeonmunju, and Baek Yeonhwi, who constantly fights in the front line, was bound to widen.

-Then how strong did that light dragon become after conquering the tower?

“I don’t know exactly. However, he was recognized by Dae-yeon Moon-ju and received the position of department manager, which was vacant.”

After passing the Tower of Examination, Gwangryong was recognized as the master of the Daeyeonmun, and became the head of the department of the Daeyeonmun. I don’t know how things have changed, but that means it’s definitely different from before.

– I don’t know what it is, but there is a special reward.

“According to Gwangryong’s passing words, he said that he strengthened the abilities he already had.”

-Enhance existing abilities? So whatever it is, it won’t be bad for you.

Baek Woojin’s characteristics are all special. There was nothing wrong with strengthening any of those traits.

“right. therefore… .”Baek Woojin smiled softly, turned off his smartphone, and looked towards Gwanghwamun.

“This time, I’m going to eat that tower.”

**

The Association of Talented Persons put in all the personnel to figure out the tower’s information.

The name of the tower is the Tower of Trials.

You cannot enter as a group, only one person can enter.

Unlike dungeons that everyone accepts, the tower has the ability to select the number of people to accept.

The time axis is different not only outside the tower, but also inside the tower.

There are ten tests in the tower, and only the person who passes them the fastest can reach the end of the tower.

But I didn’t know what would happen if I didn’t pass the exam.

The association began recruiting high-ranking talents to conquer the tower in preparation for any possible threat.

Baek Woojin was also contacted by the only acquaintance in the association.

[Hello.]

“Long time no see. Chief.”

Baek Woojin laughed when he saw Lee Young-hyun’s name on the screen. Lee Young-hyun was finally promoted and became the head of the association.

[Thanks to the prosecutor, I was promoted to the director, but I am embarrassed to call her the director every time.]

Lee Young-hyun let out an awkward laugh. Baek Woojin was promoted thanks to solving a number of problems, but I’m sorry that there wasn’t much he could do about it.

“Now that you have become the director, of course you should call me that.”

[Thank you very much.]

Although Lee Young-hyun’s voice was coming out through the phone, the gratitude was being conveyed.

[I did an investigation about Kim Nam-gil, who contacted me a while ago, but I couldn’t find anything special. The record itself seems to have disappeared altogether.]

“i See.”

Baek Woojin nodded. He was somewhat predictable. If he had been able to find his existence by name alone, he would have been able to find Zeno’s location and Master’s identity long before that.

[Instead, we figured out that Zeno’s headquarters was in the Pacific.]

“The Pacific?”

[Yes. However, it is not above the sea, but below it, and it is almost impossible to find because it is so small.]

“Is the headquarters small?”

[It seems like the headquarters where executives gather. It seems that there is a place where Xenon’s criminals gather.]

“all right. Thank you for good information.”

Since it is one of the worst crime guilds in the world, I thought that I could naturally possess that level of ability.

[It is nothing compared to what the prosecutor did. and… .]

Lee Young-hyun hesitated, unable to speak his words confidently.

“Why?”

[that… I have one thing to ask you.]

“Speak comfortably.”

Baek Woojin knew everything but smiled softly pretending not to know.

[Did you know that there is a tower in Gwanghwamun?]

“of course.”

[Unlike the dungeon, the tower does not have a vicious energy. However, I do not know what will happen, so I want you to attack quickly.]

“Yes. That’s right.”

[So, I would like to ask you to attack the prosecutor’s tower. At the top… .]

Lee Young-hyun told Baek Woojin all the information about the tower that he obtained from the association. Of course, he knew everything.

“Of course I should.”

[Are you really?]

“Yes. of course.”

Baek Woojin accepted Lee Young-hyun’s request without any hesitation.

[thank you! Thank you very much!]

Although Lee Young-hyun couldn’t even see Baek Woojin, he unknowingly lowered his head in succession.

‘This guy is really the same.’

Baek Woojin hasn’t changed at all from the first time I saw him until now, when he became a super expert. He was truly a respectable person.

“I’ll go straight to the tower tomorrow.”

[all right. I’ll prepare it!]

Baek Woojin hung up the phone while continuing to listen to Younghyun Lee’s words of endless gratitude.

– I hear you say thank you while you’re going anyway. So, you are… .

“Good is good.”

-Ugh!

As if he was tired of darkness, he wrapped his tongue around him.

– You bastard… .

Baek Woojin was going to enter the tower anyway, and he also planted a good image for Lee Young-hyun and others. He was a really great guy.

– Listening to the sound of the Medical Association, I thought it changed a bit, but it’s still the same.

Baek Woojin laughed as he touched the darkness.

“When a person suddenly changes, he dies.”

**

Baek Woojin, along with Baek Cheon-woong, Moon Ju-young, and the Medical Swordsman, headed to the front of the Tower of Examination.

Because the association was controlling the situation in the face of an unexpected threat, only talented people existed around the tower.

“Bae, this is Baek Woojin.”

“Am I really twenty? Now, what kind of momentum does a capable person who is the contracted person have?”

“The level is completely different. Even the master of a large guild is not at that level… .”

The talented people who saw Baek Woojin were overwhelmed by the momentum and could not keep their mouths shut. Beyond the extraordinary, the species was exuding a different presence.

-Is that the top choice?

‘right.’

Baek Woojin and Heukam shone when they saw the wizard standing in front of the main gate of the tower.

Whoa!

The gate of the tower alternated between white and black, and finally turned black. They did not qualify to enter the tower. The wizard stepped aside with his head bowed.

Next was the ability of the Phoenix Guild. As he stood in front of the door, the color of the front door changed to white, allowing him to enter.

The phoenix guild’s capable man glanced behind him and went inside.

“Please take good care of me.”

Baek Woojin turned around and bowed his head to Baek Cheon-woong just before his turn.

“Don’t worry. Train properly and take good care not to cause accidents. I will definitely put this guy right in front of me.”

Baek Cheon-woong smiled brightly and gently grabbed Mu-young’s ear.

“Ouch! I don’t really get into accidents!”

The mourners clapped their hands and screamed, while the others smiled slightly as they watched it.

“Then let’s go.”

“young master. Bye!”

“You can’t come out because you’re hurt!”

“We are waiting for you to conquer the tower and come out!”

Moon Joo-young and the medical team didn’t say anything about failure, whether Baek Woojin would naturally be able to enter the tower.

“I will be back.”

Baek Woojin nodded his head and walked to the tower. He made eye contact with the people of the Society and stood in front of the main gate of the Tower of Trials.

Whoa!

Like everyone else, the color of the entrance changed to white and black, then stopped at white.

– Well, that’s a natural result.

‘let’s go.’

Baek Woojin smiled and entered the tower. After hearing the sensation of his body being lifted up and the sound of the machine running, he opened his eyes and saw a room he had never seen before.

-room?

The size of the room was about 10 pyong, the walls and floor were dull gray, and the ceiling was shining white like a light fixture.

-Is this a test?

“No, I’m waiting.”

-Waiting?

“The test starts at the same time.”

The tower waits until the desired number of people is gathered, and at the same time begins the test. If we look back on the memories of our past lives, the test of the tower will begin sometime today.

– So, I didn’t go in right away, I just took my time.

“right. Because the test starts the same anyway.”

-Well, everything is fine, but do you have the confidence to defeat the Gwangryong?

“Well. Because I’ve never actually seen it. I don’t know.”

Baek Woojin laughed a little. I can’t really win. But he didn’t even have the guts.

“If you do, you will know.”

**

I didn’t wait that long, but the light from the ceiling started to twinkle.

-Is this the beginning?

“I think you should be ready.”

Baek Woojin got up from his seat. He relaxed lightly, not knowing which test would begin.

Whoa!

Hangul characters began to appear on the gray wall in front.

As the light from the ceiling deepened, an octagonal white magic circle was created on the floor. When the twinkling light from the magic circle covered the entire room, it was moved to another place.“Here… .”

The first thing I saw was fire. Four-fifths of the space the size of a football field was burning with hot flames.

However, the space where the flame was burning was changing every 20 seconds or so. At first the left end was the safe zone, but now it is the center end.

The contents of the test appeared on the wall in front.



– I mean find a footing.

“It’s a stepping stone… .”

Baek Woojin lowered his head. There were countless tiles with the sun and the moon drawn together. The first test was to find and press the other one of them.



-But this test is of no use to you, is it?

“It is not.”

This test was a test of fire resistance, eyesight, observation and judgment, but it was meaningless to him.

Even so, the flames on the floor were meaningless compared to the flames of the Spirit King Ifrit, and even if the fire burned, he had the confidence to check the patterns on the tiles.

Baek Woojin was a simple test where he just had to ignore the fire and just find the tile.

– No, what kind of test is this!

Darkness grinded its teeth. The test was so simple that it was almost in vain. At this level, there was nothing much different from the quests the system gave them.

“Wow, it’s hot.”

Baek Woojin slowly walked around with his back on his back like an uncle enjoying a sauna, checking out different types of tiles.

“found.”

In less than 10 minutes, Baek Woojin found a foothold with only two moons, not the sun and the moon.

quiver-

As soon as they stepped on the floor, the flames that burned the ground disappeared like a candle being extinguished.

-Is this a test? This is just a game!

“What if I have high resistance?”

Baek Woojin shrugged his shoulders as if teasing Darkness.

“If it’s like this, it will pass quickly.”

I passed one of the ten tests in less than 10 minutes, so I thought I would be able to conquer the tower in no time.

A huge message appeared on the dimly lit wall. But the message was not one.

Baek Woojin smiled at the second message that appeared.

“Kwangryong is going to get some heat.”

**

The fact that Baek Woojin passed the exam for the first time was also known to all the talented people who entered the tower.

“Bur, have you already passed? Crazy… .”

“You came in. I knew it.”

“After all, Baek Woojin! It does not disappoint!”

“Isn’t this enough to pass the exam as soon as it started? I really can’t keep up.”

Those who had a crush on Baek Woojin were both surprised and delighted that he passed the exam for the first time.

“Another Baek Woojin… .”

“Damn you bastard! Always interrupt!”

“You made it to the tower as expected. not this time Don’t break the back of my head… .”

“… .”

On the other hand, the talented people who didn’t like Baek Woojin grinded their teeth and broke the message on the wall. Concentrating on the exam, burning with a burning desire to catch up with him somehow.

Whoa!

Baek Woojin was the first to arrive at the place for the second test, regardless of what other people thought of him.

“It’s a little cramped.”

It was a smaller space than the previous test room. It was a round space about the size of a basketball court.

“I just saw this… .”

– Combat with other people.

Baek Woojin nodded his head. There was a different type of magic circle in front. It sounded like a fight with someone coming out of there.

– If it’s like this, isn’t it your loss that came quickly?

“You heard it too, you know. This tower has a different time axis. You will know how to measure your time.”

Baek Woojin smiled leisurely and sat down on the floor. About 10 minutes later, a pillar of light rose from the magic circle on the other side.

woohoo!

A small human figure was shining in the huge halo.

“Come. uh?”

Baek Woojin did not get up, but stopped and opened his eyes. The person with the ability to release his fingers in the white light was a person he knew well.

“Did you come too?”
