Solo Farming In The Tower
chapter-331

10th Tower, 1st Floor.

Grrr. Grrr.

A giant silver dragon lay sprawled, snoring in its sleep.

Then,

-Stella Hisron, wake up quickly!

The administrator of the 10th Tower woke Stella up.

“Ah. Why are you waking me up?”

-At last, someone has passed the trial of the 10th Tower!

“Really?!”

Stella’s face brightened at the words of the 10th Tower’s administrator.

Stella, who had been bored waiting all this time.

“Finally, they’re coming!”

Stella looked towards the entrance of the 10th Tower with sparkling eyes.

However,

……

The entrance remained quiet even after a while.

“Administrator, aren’t they coming? When will they arrive?”

-Well… they should be coming soon···

The administrator of the 10th Tower dodged Stella’s question.

A moment later.

Grrr. Grrr.

Stella, tired of waiting, fell asleep again, but the administrator of the 10th Tower couldn’t bring himself to wake her up.

“A key?”

Despite its small size, the key was quite heavy.

Click.

As Sejun was about to examine the key,

[Confirmed that the dragon blood of all nine dragon tribes is of leader level.]

[Your affinity with the dragon Clan is at the highest level.]

[As an additional reward, you have earned the right to ascend to the 2nd floor of the 10th Tower.]

Messages followed.

“Hehehe. Nice! A free pass straight to the 2nd floor.”

Sejun laughed, reading the message.

Moreover, he obtained two pieces of good information from the message.

One was that if he went to the 10th Tower, he would start from the 1st floor.

Although it was a perfectly logical thing, for Sejun, starting from the 1st floor of the tower was not something he took for granted.

The other was…

‘I can also obtain the dragon blood of the other leader -level dragons.’

That he cloud obtain the dragon blood of the other five Dragon Clan Leaders at any time.

It wasn’t easy, but after seeing Kaiser and the other dragons make a vessel for the dragon blood in just one day, Sejun was firmly mistaken.

‘Dragons are good at doing things when they want to.’

Sejun came to a rather rational (?) conclusion.

He closely examined the key.

<Key to the 10th Tower>

→ A key that can open the door to the 10th Tower.

→ When magic power is infused, a golden guiding line towards the door appears from the key. (Only the user of the key can see the guiding line.)

→ The farther away from the door, the fainter the guiding line becomes, and the more magic power is infused, the clearer the guiding line becomes.

→ Durability: Indestructible

→ Usage Restriction: Those who have passed the trial of the 10th Tower (Tower Farmer Park Sejun)

→ Grade: Unmeasurable

“Infuse it with magic power?”

As Sejun read the description and infused the key with his magic power,

Woong.

The key vibrated slightly.

And then,

……

Nothing happened.

“What?”

Is it because the surroundings are too bright that the guide line isn’t visible? Sejun covered the key with both hands to block the light and

Woong.

Looked inside while pouring all his magic power into the key.

But,

“I can’t see it?”

The golden guiding line described was not visible.

In this case, there were two possibilities.

First, the possibility that the door leading to the 10th Tower did not exist.

Second…

“It must be because my magic power is too low for the guiding line to be visible. That’s it.”

Sejun naturally thought it was the latter. Based on his past experiences, this seemed more likely.

Thus, Sejun inadvertently proved that his magic power stat was low.

“Aileen, please talk to Kaiser~nim now.”

-Kahaha. Thanks!

He nonchalantly compensated Kaiser for the dragon blood. These events had been common, so it wasn’t much of a shock.

“Kaiser~nim, please try these.”

Sejun handed over 100 Thick Darkness Cherries to Kaiser.

-Eh?! What’s this?!

After checking the options of the cherries, Kaiser.

-Kahaha. As expected of our Sejun!

Kaiser looked at Sejun as if he adored him to death and,

-Sejun, take this.

He handed over a black bracelet. The design was similar to the Dragon’s Return Bracelet.

[Dragon Horn’s Summoning Bracelet]

→ The great black dragon, Kaiser Pritani, personally enchanted a piece of his horn to create this.

→ When magic power is infused, it activates a summoning spell that brings a designated target to the summoner’s side, regardless of any obstacles.

→ Up to five targets can be designated for summoning.

→ Up to five people can be summoned per month.

→ Currently designated summoning targets: (0/5)

→ Usage restriction: Park Sejun, recognized by Kaiser Pritani

→ Creator: Kaiser Pritani

→ Grade: Unmeasurable

“Being able to summon the designated five targets…”

The content was excellent.

However,

“This time it works properly, right?”

Having been let down once before, Sejun was initially skeptical.

-Of course! This time it will activate using absolute coordinates, so what happened last time won’t happen again. Kahahaha. Enjoy this well.

Kaiser, having confidently declared this, flew towards the fountain, holding the cherries preciously, obviously to brag to the other dragons.

Once Kaiser had left,

Click.

Sejun wore the Dragon Horn’s Summoning Bracelet on his right hand.

And then,

Tap tap tap.

Pat pat.

While earnestly feeding Theo churu, he stroked Theo’s head with his right hand,

[The first summoning target has been designated for the Dragon Horn’s Summoning Bracelet.]

Theo was designated as a summoning target.

Whirrrr.

Next, as he stroked the head of Cuengi, who was slurping bean noodles,

[The second summoning target has been designated for the Dragon Horn’s Summoning Bracelet.]

He was designated as a summoning target.

During the designation of the two as summoning targets,

(So, fragments of the Apostle of Destruction appeared on Sejun-nim’s Earth, right?)

[Yeah! So Golden Bat, go and take care of it.]

Flamie was informing the Golden Bat about the situation on Earth, because if she stepped in, Earth would be destroyed.

(Pip-pip! Leave it to me!)

The Golden Bat confidently responded.

Originally, the Golden Bat could not leave the Hanla Building.

Initially, because its body was weak, it had to teleport whenever it accumulated enough teleportation energy.

However, the Golden Bat became stronger by eating Sejun’s crops, enabling it to withstand not using teleportation energy.

And the Golden Bat saved its teleportation energy for a crucial moment someday.

Thanks to this, the Golden Bat had accumulated enough teleportation energy, and now its range and duration of activity had significantly increased.

(I’ll be back then!)

[Okay. When you get to Earth, I’ll tell you where to go.]

(Yes!)

The Golden Bat departed for Earth, sent off by Flamie.

***

84th Floor of the Tower.

Inside the castle of the Caiman Kingdom.

Thump!

“Kuek…Croker…Why you?!”

Gavial, the king of the Caiman Kingdom, looked in disbelief at the one who had stabbed him in the chest.

Croker Caiman, the first prince of the Caiman Kingdom, who was to succeed him as king.

“That’s because you are a weak king who lacks the courage to fight dragons.”

Croker replied with a sneer to Gavial’s question.

‘Kekeke. With the power of destruction, even I can fight dragons.’

Confidence was written all over Croker’s face.

“What?! What have you done…”

Gavial’s eyes widened in alarm for the future of the kingdom as he died.

Thump.

Croker reached into the chest of the dead Gavial and pulled out a black orb.

[King of Caiman’s Inner Core]

“Father, I will make good use of this.”

Gulp.

Croker swallowed the Inner Core.

Then,

Rooooar.

A red aura spread around Croker and was then absorbed back.

And Gavial’s body, briefly engulfed in red energy, had disappeared as if it had been scattered into the red mist on the outskirts of destruction.

As Gavial vanished,

Thud.

Croker sat on the blood-stained, damp throne.

……

The ministers watched Croker, frozen in fear.

“Let’s start the meeting.”

“……”

“Why is no one speaking? Does someone else need to die?”

“Yo…Your Majesty! The military strength of the 79th floor’s Kingdom of Kov, under the protection of the black dragon, has significantly increased recently!”

“Your Majesty! The growth of the Red Ribbon Kingdom on the 55th floor, also under the protection of the black dragon, is not to be underestimated!”

The ministers, not understanding why Croker had suddenly changed, instinctively knew they had to say what Croker wanted to hear to survive.

Therefore, they mentioned the Kingdom of Kov and the Red Ribbon Kingdom, which could provide a justification for fighting dragons without directly confronting them.

“I see. There are so many threats to our Caiman Kingdom… Hear me, ministers. We will no longer be under the dominion of dragons! And as a declaration of war to the dragons, we will strike the Kingdom of Kov first!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

The military forces of the Caiman Kingdom began their march towards the Kingdom of Kov.

***

Seoul, Gangnam.

Flap. Flap.

(Flamie-nim, where are you?)

When the Golden Bat arrived on Earth and left the Hanla Building, looking around,

[Golden Bat, over here!]

Flamie called the Golden Bat, shaking her small roots that had emerged from the ground.

(Flamie-nim, where should I go?)

The Golden Bat hurriedly asked, knowing there was a limit to how long it could stay on Earth.

[Over there!]

Flamie pointed with her roots towards the Black Tower in Harbin.

(Okay! See you at the tower then!)

Swoosh!

The Golden Bat flew quickly in the direction Flamie had pointed.

***

Harbin, China.

Hunters were fiercely confronting the Black Locusts about 5 km in front of the Black Tower.

The Black Locusts had a considerably hard exoskeleton, so while other hunters blocked their advance,

“Wizards, use your fire magic!”

“Power of fire… Fireball!”

“Power of fire… Fireblast!”

Boom! Boom!

It was most effective for the wizards, who needed time to chant their spells, to use fire magic to burn and kill the Black Locusts’ organs.

When the number of Black Locusts had reduced to a third due to the wizards’ fire magic,

Flap. Flap.

Darkness descended along with the eerie sound of wings flapping.

“Huh?!”

The hunters, startled, looked up at the sky,

A vastly greater number of Black Locusts than before covered the sky in black, flying towards the Black Tower.

And behind the Black Locusts, a giant black crow was visible.

The Black Locusts they had been fighting were just a small scouting party.

-Kekeke. Hurry and conquer the tower.

Following Halphas’ command, the Black Locusts flew towards the Black Tower.

“Block them!”

“We must not let them through!”

The hunters screamed, preparing to block the approaching Black Locusts, but their bodies were already consumed by fear.

The natural instinct of humans faced with immense power.

However,

“Double Fireball!”

“Blaze!”

They desperately overcame that fear and fiercely fought against the Black Locusts again.

But far more Black Locusts flew past them towards the Black Tower than they could block.

“No…”

“It’s over…”

When the hunters despaired, seeing the Black Tower being overwhelmed by more than half with Black Locusts,

(Pip-pip-hoo!)

With a clear voice,

Flutter. Flutter.

The bodies of the Black Locusts covering the Black Tower exploded. It was the Golden Bat’s sonic attack.

And then,

(Pip-pip. I’ll protect Sejun~nim’s Earth! Pip-pip Storm Fist!)

Flap. Flap.

The Golden Bat flapped its wings furiously towards the Black Locusts flying towards the Black Tower.

Then,

Whoosh.

A powerful storm was created, grinding the Black Locusts to dust.

Thus, the Golden Bat annihilated the Black Locusts.

(One-Pip Slash!)

Suddenly, the Golden Bat appeared behind Halphas.

A line cutting through the air from where the Golden Bat was to where Halphas had been was drawn.

-How can this be… An entity capable of diminishing me here…

The fragment of Halphas, cut by the Golden Bat’s wings, denied the unbelievable reality as it vanished.

(Pip-pip. Finally, I used Pip-pip-hoo, Pip-pip Storm Fist, One-Pip Slash!)

The Golden Bat said with a proud expression.

But… the names of the Golden Bat’s techniques sounded familiar.

Pip-pip-hoo was inspired by Cuengi’s Kueng-fooo, and Pip-pip Storm Fist and One-Pip Slash were modeled after Theo’s Meow-meow Storm Fist and One-Meow Slash.

The Golden Bat had always been envious of the techniques used by Theo and Cuengi,

Thus, it had created its techniques by imitating them, but since they were plagiarized techniques, they couldn’t be used in the tower, and it had been waiting for an opportunity.

However, this was Earth.

Even if it imitated them, there was no risk of getting caught.

Clink.

(Pip-pip. I protected Sejun~nim’s Earth!)

The Golden Bat, picking up black coins and wearing a proud expression, returned to the 99th floor of the Black Tower.
