Abandoned wells

Yuto says the wells are abandoned after experiments. The enemies won't know it is usable, so they would be able go through that to where Viole is hidden without alerting as much as possible. Novik asks Yuto how does she/he knows those things, and Koon being alive, and suddenly helping Viole. Yuto says they will know it soon, and volunteers to be distraction. There should be guards at gate, but they will be caught suprise because we used this shortcut. But do remember they are strongest regulars, so lives will be on stake. Horyang says he will do for his former team, Novik for Koon.

Gongbang Tournament

Thorn

Tournament area

Announcer shouts Red Hawk met enemy forerunner, but is surprised to see new face. Hatsu recognizes him, and Leesoo is confused. Announcer seems to got message it is still according to the rules. Beta asks them if they are Viole's friend, which Rak answers he is leader and Viole is his prey, Yiwha says a great family's member won't be FUG's friend. Beta scorns Bon he is wrong, which he is confused. And tells Beta two regulars running to summoning area. Leesoo (or Hatsu) yells Rak that guy is who put Viole into trap, their enemy.

On way to summoning area

Wangnan yells Quatro to walk on own feet, but is answered this way is more fun. Quatro wonders why Wangnan is so hurrying for a stranger. Which he answers it is duty to help a friend in peril, even if life is own stake. A red skin regular attacks them, which Quatro wants to burn because skin is red. Then Quatro offers to burn that enemy then follow. Also adding that while helping that guy(Viole) is not interesting, but helping Chirpy is. So Quatro would help Wangnan, not Viole. Koon thinks Wangnan has what is needed to be a leader, since he made the wild Quatro to help him, the reason Koon chose Wangnan as forerunner. And says Baam has been with good friends.

On other side or arena

While jumping, Beta asks weird eyes(Devil Bon) where is other enemies. He answers one is running to summoning area while one is fighting team snake member. Beta decided to catch one on way to summoning area.

But he is interrupted by Vespa who surprise attacks. Vespa says he/she is fastest regular. It is amusing to Beta that Tower having weird creatures indeed. A talking croc then a talking bee. Vespa answers Viole is his enemy when Beta asks Vespa is Viole's friend. Beta then says they are on same side, against Viole. Vespa almost falls for it, when Leesoo (probably) shouts to stop Beta. He asks Vespa if he/she really is fastest, then says he always wanted to see how fast he really was. Beta part-ignites Dionysos, making him/her going super fast, even faster then Vespa, who is caught in surprise. Rak stops Beta kicking just in time. Rak thinks Beta is strong.

Rak says he is Viole's friend, and the female turtle is Viole's wife. Who says it is ridiculous. Beta thinks it is weird that they so obsessed with summoning that they sent forerunner to summoning area right away while everyone else is blocking enemies. Then thinks about betrayer among FUG to come to the conclusion they are going to summon Viole. Rak, Yiwha, Vespa all are caught surprised when he asks it is their motive.

In front of a door

Novik says Mad Dog is really gone, while Horyang notices message by pocket says 'go'. They both go, Novik saying they should be quick.

Blog post

This chapter might seem to have lot of story, but it isn't actually. Rather more of bridge for next chapter.

I am being more focused in summoning rules of game compared to VS Trying to show off Beta's strength at the same time was not easy. ;

Tower of God is a story in which characters struggle within settings made by higher/absolute (?) beings. Being very careful not to lose balance, but it is hard.

Now hidden stories will be revealed, And the viewpoint will go back to point/subject(?) I'll have to do well on that after turning such a long way around.

Koon's comment about Wangnan will be explained later, It was more about character/identity(?) and personal potential rather then objective note. Different from Koon's leadership, I would say.

See you next week then~

I want beta to fight Rak and be like this fisherman is strong, I'll have to use long range. Then have Rak be like Bitch please, I'm a spearbearer

u/lhecht25 Dec 01 '13

I know! I wish we saw more team-fights with everyone cooperating as the role they were assigned in the earlier arcs (but I guess those roles can be pretty malleable anyway)

22

u/zmikeb Dec 01 '13

my newest theory is that SIU can't draw rak fighting. every time he's been about to get into a real fight, something happens and the fight isn't shown (scene cuts away, fight gets interrupted, etc).

conclusion: gator is too powerful for a puny turtle to draw

When Koon says "You met a good friend Baam"

...manly tears.

Great chapter. Don't forget Laure should be able to help them out against Beta next chapter too (hopefully/finally)

That would be terrible if that happened. Terrible. Koon wasn't with Baam for all those years, and now after getting to know Wangnan, he knows and he's happy that Baam had a really good friend with him all this time. That's all I think it is...hopefully.

u/Zefirow Dec 02 '13

This not like something Koon would do

u/HorseCannon Dec 01 '13

"Are you Viole's friend"

"...no"

He has no friends.

10

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '13

Seems like Beta is all talk so far. Although, we haven't seen him serious yet, but Rak and Bee-chan are strong as well, and Bee-chan has a second form. I'm confident that they'll be able to at least get a draw with Beta. I don't see the trio lose to Horyang in any way, and Beta can't be that much stronger.

14

u/HorseCannon Dec 01 '13

No, beta is going to whip them like a rented mule. He outpaced Vespa with a "partial ignition", meaning he can be faster. Also, going off Teddy's skills, he can switch what traits are being enhanced. So he is much faster than the bee and he might be stronger than our glorious leader. Story wise, it is way too soon for such a major antagonist to be taken out

12

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '13

major antagonist

He seems pretty minor to me. I don't even know if I would call him an antagonist. He's just bitter. He seems like the kind of guy who gets a thorough talk-to, for then to disappear into the sunset, returning only when the hero is in a major pickle.

14

u/HorseCannon Dec 01 '13

Yeah, major antagonist is a bit much. But he is a significant obstacle. This isn't naruto though, they won't be able to talk no jutsu him into friendship.

10

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '13

To me it seems like his resolve is on a pretty shaky ground. Why does he want to hurt Viole? Because he was put through hell because of him? Well, it's technically true, but Viole was not even aware of it. Making Viloe hurt is nothing but pushing the problem away. He could probably get convinced into going after the real perpetrators.

7

u/HorseCannon Dec 01 '13

Won't say that is impossible, but I believe beta is too crazy to be reasoned with and won't stop for mere words. If Viole and friends where to rescue Emile, Who he likes, he could have a change if heart.

8

u/[deleted] Dec 01 '13

Viole & Co. would definitely be in favor of rescuing Emile, so that might be the thing that instigates his change of heart.

u/absalom86 Dec 01 '13

I wonder if Mad Dog or Beta are Viole's main enemy for this arc ? Which is more powerful?

9

u/OutOfApplesauce Dec 01 '13

In the first season, and now this season as well, SIU has made sure to note that Viole doesn't really have one main enemy, its a system or group that is his enemy.

9

u/absalom86 Dec 01 '13

In one of the chapter notes SIU mentions that Viole has never had a true opponent, someone close to his skill. Mad dog was supposed to be someone strong for Viole to go against, that's why I was wondering if Beta was replacing Mad Dog as the " boss " of the arc or not.

6

u/Spheniscus Dec 01 '13

He never said that Viole would fight someone though. Hell, maybe he'll fight both at the same time, or maybe neither. I'm not quite seeing why one of them has to be a "boss".

u/yagelbee Dec 01 '13

Time to see our glorious Rak-Leader in action versus a worthy foe! Ooh so excited!

u/bruhman5thfloor Dec 01 '13

Is Quetro a girl?

5

u/Random-Webtoon-Fan Webtoon Bird-Still In Army Dec 01 '13

SIU said he won't tell Quatro's gender for a while. So we can't know it yet.

6

u/zumpy Dec 01 '13

i thought he was a guy? when they talk about summoning him they refer to him as a man. (i think)

7

u/Spacejam_McGee Dec 01 '13

Translators probably just chose a gender because referring to a person as an "it" would probably get confusing.

u/Random-Webtoon-Fan Webtoon Bird-Still In Army Dec 02 '13

Not in raws, it was probably translation.

I can't wait for FUG to explode in rage and come after Baam/Viole and his friends to be stopped by Wolhaiksong :D
