My Inventory is Abnormal - Chapter 6

Editing: None

Proofreading: None

A scene reminiscent of the Western Middle Ages.

There are picturesque buildings.

Not only that, leather equipment, iron armor, rugged iron sword, etc…

And people wearing equipment wandering the streets.

Yujun had moved from the Infinite Tower’s waiting room to the residential area.

He kept looking around with widened eyes.

‘What? Everyone looks like they’re high level.’

He was puzzled.

‘That’s weird.’

Obviously, that was the normal reaction now that the tutorial has just ended.

Even if he spent a lot of time in Hell difficulty tutorial, it’s only been a day or two.

However, the equipment level of these players were considerable.

Most seem to be over level 50.

Is this possible?

Yujun’s eyes deepened.

‘If you started with me, you wouldn’t be carrying that kind of equipment.’

He tried to understand his current situation.

There’s no way everyone here has cleared the Hell difficulty tutorial.

Then came the sound of people talking nearby.

“I heard dozens of people were killed in this B rank dungeon expedition? Did you hear that?”

“I heard there was an unexpected variable. Even if it’s a low-level B rank dungeon, there are still some hidden dangers.”

“There are 20 dead in the failure of the dungeon attack. The person in charge of the expedition must have been hurt.”

“You know what’s funny? Only the man who created and led the expedition and a few of his aides survived.”

“Really? How?”

“That’s obvious. He ran away from the expedition because he thought it would be dangerous. They used a special scroll to return.”

“Wow…what a character.”

“That’s what everyone does.”

Ears pricked, Yujun came closer to them.

“But aren’t they afraid of coming back? If you abandon your expedition and run away from this floor where trust is important…You wouldn’t be able to handle it.”

“There’s no evidence. They’re lucky enough to survive. They’re going to make it somehow.”

“You know it’s a lie.”

“It doesn’t matter. At least few are stronger here than they are. The fifth-year players have already gone to high places, and only the first and second-year players are left. Without lions, foxes are kings.”

Yujun, who was listening carefully to the conversation, was surprised.

‘First year? Fifth year? What does that mean?’

They certainly weren’t talking in an unknown language.

It was Korean.

Somehow he had an ominous premonition.

‘Let’s go around for a while.’

Yujun has since been constantly roaming the Infinite Tower’s residential area for information.

So three days have passed.

“Huh…”

Yujun let out a deep sigh.

He searched everywhere and found out that five years had passed by in a ridiculous way.

Ever since the Great Exodus.

The Great Exodus refers to those who have awakened to player skills and were forcibly taken to the Infinite Tower, trapped.

And the Great Exodus didn’t end in one go.

Once a year, new players enter Infinite Tower.

They were all living on Earth.

Yujun was suspicious after obtaining such information.

‘War of Gods’ game setting wasn’t all about the Infinite Tower.’

Although a large portion was inside Infinite Tower, it has never trapped anyone in it.

He also understood what was happening on the continent with the demon invasion.

‘But I’m not sure what’s going on here…’

It was very different from the previous War of Gods he had played.

‘Have I been asleep for five years? Or did it take that long to clear the Hell difficulty tutorial?’

He wasn’t sure of anything.

The only thing for sure is that five years has already passed.

‘I’m five years behind?’

To be honest, he was disheartened.

He could have guessed to some extent that there were other users, but the gap of five years is too big.

‘What’s the problem? Why am I the only one who’s late?’

By date, he should be a first-year player.

But for some reason, he just got out of the tutorial.

“Huu…”

He was already at a loss.

He thought he was a little bit ahead of others, but it turned out he is five years behind.

However, he cannot remain depressed.

All he has to do now is grow strong as soon as possible.

And it wasn’t that difficult, with the inventory of ‘Non Paying Gamer.’

‘Let’s think positively. Five years. That’s five years, at least. I have an inventory.’

His inventory is worth enough to cover five wasted years.

Yujun, who looked through the items in his inventory, recovered his smile.

‘I don’t have to be impatient.’

He had experience playing War of Gods and numerous items.

If he achieves a certain level, he will soon be able to climb high.

‘Let’s decide what I have to do first.’

It was obvious what that will be.

To raise his level.

In order to make use of his best equipment, he has to raise his level high.

Starting at level 50, accessories can also be worn.

From then on, he will be able to be as strong as a booster.

‘I’ll find out about the second tutorial.’

Maybe it’s information that only they know.

The first person to clear the second tutorial before anyone else does it.

‘But I can’t get used to it no matter how I look at it.’

People were taking the reality that had changed like a game for granted.

Buildings reminiscent of medieval times.

Players wearing iron or leather armor and carrying weapons.

Some people brought monster’s bodies and sold them to stores.

‘The world changed in an instant.’

Looking at it, he felt like he was really in a fantasy world.

‘I’m glad I have experience in War of Gods.’

Five years without any information would not have been so easy to adapt.

He began to contrast the information he had gained from playing the game with the information he had gained from wandering around the residential area.

Most of the information was correct.

“It didn’t hurt to start at the Infinite Tower, but…Still, the information about the low dungeons and the type of skills are the same as I knew.’

Yujun finished his meal at an inn he found nearby.

In this Infinite Tower, ‘Points’ is the currency.

Points are the monetary unit in War of Gods, which can be obtained by hunting monsters or completing quests.

At least he didn’t have to worry about making ends meet.

He sold one useless equipment and grabbed a huge sum of 50,000 points.

With only a moderate Hero grade equipment, he actually came out with 50,000 points.

50,000 points is quite a large sum.

He doesn’t have to worry about the money for the inn.

Hero grade, the third highest grade in Common, Rare, Hero, Unique, Legendary, and Mythic.

Nevertheless, it is said that Hero grade items are rare.

It’s been five years, and he was wondering how it happened, but come to think of it, it’s not really what he knew.

Unlike back then, the dungeons are dangerous and it was not easy to get items here.

‘There was no Top-Up.’

Most of all, there was no such thing as a billing system.

Then, of course, items are precious.

‘I’ll benefit because of that.’

Legendary grade and higher items in his inventory.

He felt good when he thought of those things.

With a big smile, Yujun left the inn and headed for the medical store.

It was for people who were seriously injured while trying to attack a dungeon or climb the tower.

The major injury was an injury that cannot be cured unless by an elixir.

“Welcome.”

A middle-aged man with a thick beard welcomed Yujun when he entered the store.

“What brings you here?”

“Please give me the lowest-grade potion.”

“How many bottles would you like?”

“Five.”

“Okay.”

The middle-aged man, who entered the warehouse in the back, quickly came out and handed over the potions to Yujun.

“That’ll be 500 points.”

“Here you go.”

“Thank you for shopping with us.”

“Yes. Have a good day.”

Yujun closed the deal very naturally, as if he had been in the Infinite Tower for years.

The transaction of points is done by the system hologram.

That is why there was no fear of points being robbed.

Though, there should be cases where points are forcibly threatened and taken away.

Still, he didn’t have to worry about being swindled under normal circumstances.

With five bottles of potion in his inventory, Yujun left the medical store and started walking along the street.

The reason for purchasing the lowest-grade port is simple.

‘It’s too wasteful to use the potion in my inventory.’

The potions he put in his inventory were of great quality.

Potions great enough to use at level 200 and higher.

It was so precious that he would not use it in this sub-100 level residential area.

It’s not a big loss, but it’s too point-wasting to use such a potion.

That’s why he stopped by a medical store.

‘Well, in case of an emergency, I’ll be generous with expensive things.’

Above all, his life was more precious.

‘Let’s get going now.’

He was going to take a test to get to the next floor, not go to a dungeon to raise his level.

In order to climb Infinite Tower and reach higher floors, one must be recognized by the system.

Specifically, it is to overcome a trial set by the system.

If this happens, one can go straight up without any restrictions or conditions.

If you are a regular player, you should grow up by targeting dungeons that exist on the first floor and then challenge the next floor.

Yujun didn’t have to.

His level has already reached 31.

And his item levels surpassed level 31.

It was almost a waste of time to go after a miscellaneous dungeon on the first floor.

Is it because of the Composure trait?

It was not only absurd, but he also thought so naturally of climbing Infinite Tower.

‘I’m not the only one.’

Other players also wanted to climb to the top.

There are a number of reasons.

When you go higher in the Infinite Tower and level up, the residential area also turns into a more luxurious place.

You will be able to lead a wealthier life.

The second reason is the demon invasion.

If nobody reaches the top of the tower within 15 years, the demon’s invasion will begin, and Earth as well as the areas inside Infinite Tower will be in danger.

When such a situation comes, Earth may be destroyed.

No, almost a hundred percent chance of destruction.

This was the information Yujun learned from walking around the residential area.

The one and only goal, the demon’s invasion.

After all, he has to climb to the end of the Infinite Tower to live.

‘Infinite Tower goes up to the 50th floor.’

To be exact, it wasn’t up to the 50th floor.

After the 50th floor, content development was no longer carried out, so he could not go up.

However, by Yujun’s standards, the difficulty level of the 50th floor wasn’t high.

That means.

‘There’s a high probability that there are more than 50 floors.’

Five years later, some players are already targeting the 40th floor.

So, the 50th floor can’t be the end.

Because It’s not that hard to clear the 50th floors within 15 years.

That’s why he thought there would be more than 50 floors.

Yujun sighed.

‘The demon invasion…’

Is it because of the game War of Gods that made it a reality?

Yujun recalled what the administrator had said.

She told him to accept the situation without doubt no matter what happened.

‘I wonder what kind of entity the administrator named Nel is.’

As he thought before, he wonders if the developer who created War of Gods was actually God.

‘I don’t care.’

He shouldn’t stay like this.

‘Level, I must raise my level.’

He was going to focus on getting stronger for the time being to catch up to other players.
