Tower's Richest Player: My Coins Won't Stop Increasing-Chapter 91: Group discussion
Chapter 91: Group discussion
"It’s been a week since the 3rd floor opened up and there’s pretty much no news about anything happening in the tower."
"Just like us, most of the other players seem to be taking it slow."
"It’s not like staying here would change anything. If they appeared in the tower, what’s the chance they wouldn’t appear in the real world as well?"
Izzy was wondering why players were taking this whole matter so seriously.
It was serious, she knew that, but they could not waste their time with something so irrelevant.
"Izzy be more considerate, Miss. Many people have died... something like this has never happened until now." Zyon wanted her to be careful with her words, but she simply shook her head at him.
"But that doesn’t mean it will never happen again. You know that better than anyone else, Ziggy."
The three of them sat in their house, alone in a room full of screens showing all kinds of data, pictures of the deceased, and the information available on their families.
They had access to various information on these people thanks to their mother’s newly created information network and access that Ziggy had thanks to being part of the association.
With this information, they were trying to search for a deeper connection between people who had died and the places they belonged to.
They were also compiling the data for future use or for future reference. However, they were taking a break right now.
"It’s a fact, Ziggy. This was the first time but not the last. If the tower and the beings of the tower don’t eliminate humanity, the humans with resentment towards humanity will.
That’s how it was in the game, and it seems like that’s how it’s going to be here as well."
KiRA wanted to agree with Ziggy and respect the dead, but the fact that the players weren’t entering the tower anymore was a big problem.
They only had 60 days this time as well. There wasn’t really much time left before they had to face the big quest and fight in the battle for the next floor.
They will have one chance this time, and if they fail, not only more people will die, but they will lose the battle and their world will fall.
"That... I know that." Zyon could not help but sigh at this moment. freēwēbnovel.com
He once again saw the carnage that he never wanted to see again.
Innocent people with hope and dreams, people with family and loved ones to look after, people that they wished to protect with all their might with the new powers and opportunities presented to them... all of them died without even seeing the true value of fighting against this tower.
He had cursed and cried for days now. A long time had already passed since the incident and even though things were stabilising now, the terror was still present.
"We cannot do anything about this on our own, Ziggy. Not only are we too weak right now, but even with everything we know about the game and the tower, we have no idea who or what might be behind this whole ordeal."
KiRA had accepted the reality after a long time. He was not ready to face the greater dangers of the towers yet, but if his predictions were correct, then this was the work of some [Dark Apostles].
’If they have started appearing already, there will undoubtedly be more incidents like this going forward.’
Dark Apostles were the apostles of the dark divinities or the ’greater evil’ within the tower.
They were beings with the most chaotic personalities.
Not only did they seek absolute destruction and dread, but they regularly hindered the advancement of the players and tried to reduce their numbers on each floor.
They weren’t like the normal criminals who simply wanted to kill. They wanted destruction, they wanted to see carnage and massacres.
Their powers were derived from the chaos they create and the negativity they harness.
’But they shouldn’t have found a candidate so soon...’
There were many conditions that needed to be met for someone to be appointed as a Dark Apostle, but the candidate had to go through various trials so the process wasn’t simple.
’It’s highly unlikely that a new apostle was chosen. But if someone from the tower came out, a lot of resources would have been used.’
And it was again unlikely that those dark divinities would use their resources on the players on the lower floors.
"It is best to focus on tomorrow’s funeral. After the association president makes a statement, I guess the players will start going into the tower again." KiRA patted his big brother’s back as he suggested that.
It would be for the best.
"He’s right, Ziggy. You have work to do tomorrow so you should rest now. We will finish the rest here."
The association had to take some time to do their own investigation and look for some things.
The entire week had been spent with constant news on the incident on the 2nd floor, with little to no information on the 3rd floor that was already opened.
"We have work to do after tomorrow as well, so we should wrap these things up as well."
A funeral was going to be held in various cities around the world for the ones who lost their lives in this incident.
A monument was already built by the association in their memory, but that did not bring them people’s approval.
’The association was supposed to protect the players.’
According to people around the world, the association should have taken better care of this matter.
All the blame was pushed on them, and under the surface, many more political games were being played around the world.
The association had only just started gaining popularity, but with this incident, they were going to lose their prominent standings.
People are going to lose their trust in the association if they don’t do something about this. And a funeral wasn’t going to be enough.
’What will you do now...?’
The executives of the association and the head individual that operated the association, the president themselves were going to appear before the public for the first time tomorrow.
KiRA had been looking forward to that for a while now, so he was glad to have put Ziggy in the association.
He now had direct access to the event location. And even though that person won’t be there directly, seeing the other higher-ranking officials of the association would be enough for now.
