Chapter 2 - An invitation from a pocket watch (2) (2/2)
In addition to that, Attributes showed a quantification of a player’s capabilities, and Skills showed the standardized skills that players could use inside the tower
‘It’s just like a ga about Obelisk, his brother had said “it ame, but it’s not It’s reality”
Now he understood why
‘Currently, I have Cold-blooded as my trait’
[Trait: Cold-blooded]
An ability to reat immunity to mind control and brainwash class curses
This was a talent Yeon-woo originally possessed
It see as a professional soldier
A power that helps hiement in chaotic situations and command his army on the frontlines
‘It’s not bad’
No, it wasn’t just ‘not bad’
It was perfect
It was very important to have a card in his hand that could help hiics and skills
‘Only, one through an awakening as a player and his body had also been ie, his attributes were all below 20
For cli The Tohere all sorts of monsters existed, he was too weak
But it was no surprise
He had no idea how to handleAlso, his knowledge on the concept of skills was too scarce
The only thing he could rely on were his instincts that had been honed by war
So was the Skill tab
[Draconic Eyes(龍魔眼)]
Eyes of a dragon Sees through the truth Can partially peek into an object or person’s abilities
[Sense Strengthening]
The five senses are greatly iht] (Special)
Can see a certain amount of time into the future
His Draconic Eyes were the only vestige his brother had left behind for hih the succession process in the pocket watch
‘Jeong-as able to on(古龍) on the 11th floor by chance Is this so left from that encounter?’
The draconic species(龍種) are arrogant and ferocious by nature, yet are also beings that seek the truth
It seems his brother had been partly exposed to their nature, and acquired the eyes that can peek through the truth
But how big of a help would this be was yet to be known
‘See to my Trait”
It was a skill that allowed hiht, hearing, touch, smell, and taste
Yeon-woo liked this skill the most
It’s unpredictable what could happen in a battlefield
He ht have to trace out a faint smell of oil There was also a time when he had to listen to the distant footsteps of the enemy
If he could handle such senses freely, it would be very helpful in his attempt to climb up the tower
‘What bothers me the most is this one,’
Yeon-woo’s eyes were fixed on the last skill
‘Foresight’
Yeon-woo looked at the pocket watch in his hand
‘Is it because of this?”
Skills were given according to players’ Traits, but so to the player’s environment or their most precious object
Especially skills with the word ‘special’ attached behind, it’s safe to say that it was a skill of his own
‘OK For now, let’s just do it’
Yeon-woo took a deep breath
It was clear that co on a better foothold thanks to his brother’s help
But even so, there was a long way ahead of hiht his brother to his death are the strongest aer and stronger throughout the course of several years, soo if he wanted to catch up with those people
The iraph came back to his mind
‘You only wanted me to find the elixir and live the rest of my life peacefully, but…’
He clenched his fist, causing his veins to stick out
‘I’o’
Yeon-woo proceeded to sort out his personal affairs
[Sergeant Cha! what are you talking about? You’re leaving the army all of a sudden?]
He heard the commander’s furious voice over the phone
It was no surprise
Upon hearing about his brother’s death, the coet hied without any prior notice If Yeon-ere the commander, he would also be ive any specific excuses
[Did so happen? Or did you have any complaints? If you did, just tell me If ‘Cain’ leaves, what am I supposed t…! ]
“I’ht after saying that
His phone rang again, but he turned off the phone and threw it into a garbage can on the street
The commander had cared for him like a son, so he had to cut off the connection evenleft was his house, but he also put it out on the real estate ot dispatched, and now there was no reason to leave it any longer
He didn’t want to have a place to coht several stuff
He filled his newly purchased backpack with some basic clothes and as many combat rations as he could; Equipped himself with dozens of knives that he used back in the army and some tools for survival likefirearms and bombs from the black market, but soon shook off the idea
‘The Tower is a place that was built to test a player’s skills It’s better to avoid such things Besides, if I can’t continuously supplyto be cu was ready, Yeon-woo ca
He earing jeans and a black hoodie with his hood drawn over his eyes, and he carried a backpack full of luggage on his right shoulder He had already burned the unifor out
‘Considering the time difference between Obelisk and the real world, is it about a week after the last round began?’
To enter The Tower, he had to go through this one place first
The tutorial
The place to test players ant to enter The Tower It was disadvantageous to enter such a place a week after it had already started
But Yeon-woo still decided to enter during this period
‘Players who start late are also given advantages The et, and there’s also a hidden piece that is only given to latecolow
“I’uy’ shows up”
As Yeon-woo organized his plans step by step in his head,
Click
He wound the knob of his brother’s pocket watch backwards
Then, a cluster of lights spread in theup
The shadoirled around and forateway to the world where The Toas located
Yeon-woo stepped inside the gate without any hesitation His eyes looked colder than ever
“From now on,”
‘I will ate knoho they -woo Cha”
And so, the gate closed
