Worn And Torn Newbie

Worn And Torn Newbie chapter 709
Episode 709: The Second Cataclysm (6)

At low level, the scene of catching low level monsters is displayed as a hologram.

It was an illusion that did not cause any harm to people, considering that if it accidentally touched the body, it would just pass by.

Users are immersed in memories and look at their past self.

Every time I went up one floor by going around the stairs, the illusions were definitely leveling up.

And when you go up one more floor, the scene where you level up and catch the monster with the higher level.

Each time you go up like that, you level up in the illusion.

He got closer to his current self and the monsters he caught were getting bigger and stronger each time they changed.

"Wow, am I getting stronger?"

"Oh right, I used to play like this when I was in level 20."

"Oh, if I go up, then there was a time when I was level 30?"

Then at the top of this tower

What happens when you reach

Users went up and down the stairs with strange aspirations and curiosity.

Along the way, while feeling the taste of memories brought by the red and blue potions.

Users felt it while going up the floor.

The me at that time, the one I caught at that time

monsters.

At that time, while being chased by bees and ants, they worked hard to collect japtems to make money.

His old expression of laughing and crying at every little thing and playing hard games.

Users were watching their growing illusions with a proud look with a happy smile.

However.

As each climbed the tower from a certain moment, the faces of the users gradually hardened.

As you go up the stairs, your appearance in the illusion gradually resembles your present self.

The eyes of users in the welcome and the eyes of users who saw it were gradually changing.

The heat of excitement disappeared from the faces of the users who worked hard to raise the level, and even after defeating the monster after a long battle, they were still bitter.

Similarly, the happy smile hanging from the corner of his mouth is lifted, and the look of boldness is also shaken.

The people in the illusion were cold and mechanical.

Make eye contact with the monsters you catch

didn't

They quickly search the corpse, and if there are no useful items, they leave immediately.

There was nothing like looking back on the fierce battle and feeling the excitement left over from the unquenchable heat of battle, or collecting items dropped by monsters to make souvenirs.

Just hurry up, next level, next

just go step by step.

If an item fell by chance, it was either thrown on the floor or thrown into the auction house after measuring its rating and efficiency.

When you discover a new dungeon, you start by looking for information on the advance squad, read reviews, and if you don't like it, filter it.

When you find a monster you are seeing for the first time, calmly search for stats, experience, and drop items, and then judge the efficiency.

When you receive a hidden quest, compare the time it takes and the reward, and reject or skip it.

If the boss monster raid is successful, after checking the time taken, dropped items, and reward results, he leaves with a dry reaction.

" Ah. I think I changed my mind a bit from that level."

right. Ever since I became a high level player, I couldn't feel the fun of the game very well. I was just trying to make money by selling items."

"I played because of inertia, but I don't think it was as exciting as before.

right. I was just trying to get expensive items. Turning the game on to take a break has changed to turning it off to take a break."

"Just following the top tier rankers.

I made an item and a skill tree. If the rankers change, I change too."

If you see a dungeon you didn't know or a monster you didn't know about, the adventures you learned while trying to attack and die are no longer there.

There is no longer an adventure where you cried and laughed for a single unsatisfied item.

There are only calculators that simply follow the characteristics, stats, and item trees of upper tier rankers after searching for information.

Yu-hee is the work, and the play is Noga-taro.

This dungeon is filtered because of the low yield compared to the investment time~ This monster is risky, so I filter it~ This meta is a meta that rankers don't do, so I filter it~ This item is inefficient

Playtime was seen as an important investment property, and the 'do not start working on it' was considered an adventure.

was a key determinant of

As fast as possible, strong, safe, and more up.

A unique job, my own skill tree, a unique look, a chapter that only catches one monster?!.

All of this resulted in one name, 'Inefficiency E效率)'.

My original job became a mischief, and my own skill tree became a gem.

The unique look has become a public servant, and artisans who only catch one monster are not included in the party.

You're an adventurer who doesn't take risks, what a contradiction!

Users look at their past selves that are getting closer to their present self with a firm expression.

Just as it seems bittersweet from an adult's point of view that a child loses his child's heart, a newbie loses his or her heart.

Going is bittersweet from Oldby's point of view.

Some of them ripped off their heads as if they were really shocked.

"Oh, no Me, did I do well from the beginning?"

There is a saying that frogs never think tadpoles.

Growth itself is a thing of the distant past.

Otherwise, people have the illusion that they are complete from the moment they are born.

Just as we often mistakenly assume that we are good at roller skating or riding bikes from the beginning.

That's not me. No, it's not me! I didn't even look up every quest like that! I assigned a shortcut key! Yes! I set all the addons...! But what is that!?

"I said I went into that dungeon!? Oh, isn't it? Dunn obviously passed

before? It looks quite attractive, but the efficiency of farming is so bad that I must have searched for it and filtered it out!"

"I used to curse every day that it was a newbie instinct to start backstepping when I was embarrassed I did too!?"

If you go further than that, you will become an old gamer whose past has weathered and disappeared.

They were struggling to find the emotion within them.

But their eyes are just empty and out of focus.

What is the name of that low level monster... Obviously, I ran the raid thousands of times... ."

"I don't remember. Don't those guards have their own peers? It's at the entrance, so the level is 10-15, so the pier itself is was there... ?"

"Huh? What is the pet next to me? Spider-shaped pets? cutie tulle

end. I know. No, I don't think I ever wrote anything...

Instead of gaining skills and rankings, they lost all the little things of the past, and they looked at their old self with an unfamiliar feeling to see others.

yet.

Refugee users have reached the upper floors of the tower.

The regenerated illusions are also getting stronger

It has almost caught up with them in the present.

right then

" uh!?

One of the refugees, who could afford it, looked down to see how far they had climbed, and then exclaimed in surprise.

Then the users lifted their heads one by one and went down the spiral staircase.

saw it all

And soon, everyone was shocked.

The stairs of life that I walked up and down until now.

If you look down, you will see a lot of things lying beneath your feet.

Bees and ants that look very small down there, and monsters such as spiders and birds above them. And

Monsters that were higher than that, and those that were higher than that .

The illusions of the numerous monsters that have been captured so far are gathered below and looking up.

They were the reason why they were able to climb to the top so far, the footings they had climbed on without knowing it.

How many people did it take for me to get to this position?

Was there any help and sacrifice?

Some of the refugees were even weeping.

"Yeah, thanks to those guys, I was able to level up so far. I forgot all this time."

"Huh Did I kill so many bees and ants? Oh yeah Time flies."

All this time, I've been staring at the stomach at all.

I did not know. I thought there were so many things down there."

"Haha, yes that's right. There was a time when I would fight and laugh with them all day long."

"At some point, I ignored them saying that they would die if I hit one."

"There have been times when I stabbed my legs or made holes in my wings as a way to get bored. While handling garbage... once upon a time

It's a monster that I couldn't catch and I stayed up all night in a panic."

Memories, sadness, sadness, bitterness. And thank you.

People look down with different minds.

Akisada, too, was immersed in many thoughts looking at such people.

'Um, it's been a long journey. Everyone is sensitive.

Me too.'

In fact, if you normally do, you might have thought, 'Then, when you eat pork, do you say thank you to the pig?'

It's impossible to say thank you for giving me experience every time you catch a monster.

But, at least for this moment, everyone is obsessed with the past.

Akisada lifted her head and looked at the white light emanating from the ceiling of the tower.

-  Music Box of the White Dragon / Material / S+

Those who have reached the limit of their lives usually reflect on the war-like life they have lived in the past.

- Ability to use the characteristic 'Memoir (回顧錄)' (special)

Welcome is only welcome

The white light was coming out of the shell-shaped item up there, but I couldn't confirm its identity with certainty.

I can only guess that it is an item of musical instruments, seeing the light melody flowing through it.

Akisada thought to himself that somehow he could understand the intention of the person who designed this tower.

right then

Whoops!

With a loud roar, the tower shook slightly once.

Some well-informed people shouted among the bewildered refugees.

"Wow, that's a big deal! See the latest community post, bees and ants have crossed the North Continent

It was!"

"They say they are attacking the first floor of the Black Tower!"

Ugh!? There's just been a hole in the first floor of the ark! I think bees and ants are coming in here too!"

At those words, the faces of all the refugees grew terrified.

The place where the hole was made by bees and ants is on the first floor, so it is different from the one on the upper floors.

It's quite a distance, but... It is only a matter of time before they catch up, given the staggering number of bugs and the speed of their advance.

Since it was already in the upper part of the tower, there was no room to escape anymore.

Akisada also bit her teeth tightly.

And.

Pot!

A great welcome in front of the refugees

Hana appeared almost at the same time as the news that the door on the first floor of the ark had been opened.

[You have worked hard to get here.]

Standing water.

Appearing in the hologram, he greeted the refugees with an elegant gesture.

And soon, short and shocking

chattered

[I am the culprit who caused the second cataclysm]
