Solo Farming In The Tower
-
chapter-448
Outskirts of Destruction.
Rustle. Rustle.
Alice, the Mesmerizing Spider, 9th seat of the Apostles of Destruction, was diligently producing spider webs.
At the same time, she used her eight legs to weave the spun web using her power.
“It’s almost done now.”She took the woven web and attached it to the wall inside a red hole, expanding the hole.
A small crack, the thickness of a pinky finger, had accidentally formed on the outskirts of Destruction.
Usually, such cracks are highly unstable and disappear almost instantly, so 99.99% of the time, they go unnoticed.
But Alice, lucky enough to discover the crack before it closed.
I can feel the energy of the tower!
Recognizing the tower’s energy coming from the crack, she quickly inserted her web into it, preventing it from closing.
Then she began to push her web through the crack continuously.The first task was camouflage.
Using an mesmerizing camouflage screen made from her web, she wrapped the 93rd floor of the Green Tower, preventing the energy of Destruction from leaking out and making it appear as if nothing was amiss, deceiving the dragons.
Once the camouflage work on the 93rd floor of the Green Tower was complete,
Alice began to expand the crack, creating a passage large enough for her to pass through with her full strength.
The moment she could enter the tower through this completed path,
“Everything will end.”
Alice smiled sinisterly, imagining the tower being corrupted by the energy of Destruction and being destroyed.
At that moment,
Snap. Snap.
Suddenly, Alice’s spider web started breaking, and the passage Alice was creating gradually became smaller.
“What the?!”
Alice quickly put her legs on her spider web and read the vibrations transmitted through the spider web to assess the situation.
There are strange creatures beyond the passage absorbing the energy of Destruction.
“Damn it! Just one more day and it would have been complete!”
Alice, seeing the passage that had now shrunk to the point where it could only handle half of her power, contemplated.
“I have no choice….”
She decided to go through.
If 10% more of her web snapped, the passage would completely collapse.
Thud. Thud.
Having made her decision, Alice entered the passage connected to the 93rd floor of the Green Tower.
***
Green Tower, 93rd Floor.
Kueng!
Sejun and Theo, riding on Cuengi’s back, were moving towards where their companions were.
“Ah. I can see the Devourers over there!”
When Sejun spotted the Destruction Devourers surrounding the Abyss of Destruction,
Boom.
With a massive ground tremor, the Destruction Devourers vanished instantly, and a black mountain, about 70 meters high, rose.
Simultaneously, a blood-red mist spread around the mountain.
“Why is there suddenly a mountain?”
As Sejun was looking at the mountain in confusion,
[Apostle of Destruction, 9th Seat, Mesmerizing Spider Alice]
He noticed the name atop the mountain.
And then,
[You have achieved the great feat of witnessing the main body of an Apostle of Destruction.]
[As a reward for achieving a great feat, you have acquired <Title: Witness of the Apostle of Destruction>.]
[Due to the effect of <Title: Witness of the Apostle of Destruction>, your resistance to the power of destruction increases slightly.]
A message appeared.
“That’s the main body of the Apostle of Destruction?!”
Not a mountain?!
Sejun, who had naturally thought it was a mountain, was shocked by the message.
No wonder I had a bad feeling. Why are bad premonitions always right?
Ah! Then what about the kids?!
“Summon Black Rabbit, summon Paespaes, summon Blackie.”
[Summoning the designated targets.]
···
···
Sejun hurriedly used the Dragon Horn’s Return Bracelet to summon all his companions in front of him.
Fortunately, all the companions were safe, and Eomdol, who was clinging to Blackie’s fur, was also okay.
Ppyak! Ppyak!
[Uncle! I missed you! I thought I was really going to die this time!]
[Pip-pip! Sejun nim, it was really scary!]
Kihihit. Kking! Kking!
[Hehe. You cowards! The great Blackie is never scared!]
“Of course! The great Blackie~nim would never be scared of someone like Alice!”
Eomdol, look at Blackie’s legs before you speak.
Tremble. Tremble.
Blackie’s legs were shaking like a vibrating smartphone.
Of course, Blackie, the 1st Seat of the Apostles of Destruction, wasn’t actually scared of Alice. He was just exerting all his strength to withstand Alice’s energy, but Sejun didn’t know that.
“Let’s go to the 99th floor of the Green Tower and inform Brachio~nim.”
Brachio~nim, who ate the Transcendence Black Bean, should be able to handle it.
So, Sejun used the Dragon Horn’s Return Bracelet, setting the coordinates and activating the return magic.
However,
[The return magic engraved on the Dragon Horn’s Return Bracelet is activated.]
[Calculating the distance between the current coordinates and the return target coordinates.]
[The surroundings are cut off from the external space.]
[Return magic cannot be used.]
Alice had already completely blocked the 93rd floor of the tower with her web.
“What?!”
We can’t get out of here?! This is bad!
“What should we do?”
Hide?
Sejun looked around, searching for a place to hide.
But,
“Kikikik. Trying to escape from me, how foolish!”
Thud. Thud.
Alice quickly found the companions Sejun had summoned from several kilometers away and was rapidly approaching them, so hiding or escaping didn’t seem like a good option.
“You don’t want to talk, right? Then….”
Is fighting the only option left? This was really the worst.
To fight an enemy that even the dragons find difficult, he couldn’t muster any fighting spirit at all.
But this wasn’t a matter of choice.
It was a realm of results, where success and failure were the only options.
And he had to succeed.
“Enter the Void Storage, Vice Chairman Theo, grab the money, Cuengi, grab the food!”
Sejun made them gather the money and food needed to bring their combat power to the maximum.
“Chairman Park, understood, meow!”
Kueng!
[Understood!]
In response to Sejun’s words, they hurried into the Void Storage to gather money and food.
“Transcendence Black Bean, Sturdy Stamina Red Bean, Sturdy Strength Yellow Bean….”
Meanwhile, Sejun took out the Transcendence Black Bean and the other four beans from his leather pouch.
“You know how to eat this, right?”
He distributed five sets of beans and mugwort juice potions to his companions.
And then,
[You have planted Destruction Devourer seeds in the ground infused with magic power.]
···
..
.
He suddenly started planting Destruction Devourer seeds.
[You have been exposed to strong energy of Destruction.]
[For every minute of exposure to the strong energy of Destruction, your vitality decreases by 10%, and all stats permanently decrease by 10.]
It was because of the energy of Destruction emitted by Alice from several kilometers away.
If the Destruction Devourers didn’t absorb the energy of Destruction, the situation would become increasingly disadvantageous over time.
After planting 10,000 seeds of Destruction Devourers,
Thud. Thud.
The distance to Alice had narrowed to 1 kilometer.
“Vice Chairman Theo, open your mouth.”
“Understood, meow!”
Theo opened his mouth without any suspicion at Sejun’s call.
Swoosh.
Sejun placed a set of beans mixed with Churu into Theo’s mouth.
Theo would never eat anything other than fish and Churu, so Sejun made him eat the beans along with Churu.
“Puhuhut. It’s delicious, meow!”
I’m overflowing with power, meow!
Thanks to eating the set of beans with Churu, all of Theo’s stats increased 16 times for 4 minutes.
“Vice Chairman Theo, deploy!”
“Puhuhut. Leave it to me, Vice Chairman Theo, meow! I’ll teach her a lesson, meow!”
“Meow meow meow! Meow meow meow!”
Theo, moving quickly above Alice with Meow Step, began his Meow-meow Storm Fist and unleashed a flurry of attacks on Alice.
And then,
Kueng!
Kooo.
104.28.193.250
Bang! Crackle.
Cuengi also ate the bean set and attacked Alice with the Thunderbolt Staff.
“You bastards!!”
Alice staggered every time she was hit by their attacks. It seemed their attacks were effective.
Ppyak!
[I’ll turn you into rice cakes!]
Black Rabbit also used the ultimate skill of the Rice Cake Master and, along with eleven former rice cake masters, pounded Alice with rice cake mallets.
‘Pip-pip Storm Fist!’
‘One-Pip Slash!’
Paespaes attacked Alice’s belly from below, where he couldn’t be seen by his brothers.
While these intense attacks were being unleashed, Sejun approached Alice.
[You have encountered an Apostle of Destruction.]
[<Title: Hunter of Destruction> is activated.]
[Reduces the abilities of an Apostle of Destruction within 100 meters by 20%.]
“Good.”
Using the <Title: Hunter of Destruction>, Sejun weakened Alice’s abilities.
Although it didn’t directly help in the battle, it was a way to support his companions.
As Sejun, who had debuffed Alice, was climbing up her back to his next destination,
“Puhuhut. Here, meow!”
Kuhehehe.
Ppyak! Ppyak!
[Pip-pip. Here!]
The companions distracted Alice to allow Sejun to safely climb onto her back.
“Arrived.”
Sejun, who had reached Alice’s back, started planting the seeds of the Destruction Devourer in the cracks that had formed as her shell broke.
[You’re a Field Lv. 2 is activated.]
[You have planted Destruction Devourer seeds in the body of the Mesmerizing Spider Alice, the 9th Seat of the Apostles of Destruction.]
[Your job experience has greatly increased.]
[Your proficiency of You’re a Field Lv. 2 has greatly increased.]
[You have planted the seeds in the best environment for Destruction Devourers to grow.]
[Destruction Devourers absorb the energy of Destruction three times faster.]
[Destruction Devourers rapidly grow by absorbing the life force of the Mesmerizing Spider Alice, the 9th Seat of the Apostles of Destruction.]
Planting Destruction Devourers with the You’re a Field skill not only steals the enemy’s life force but also reduces Alice’s power of destruction, achieving two goals at once.
As Sejun was planting Destruction Devourer seeds,
[Special Effect: Hatred of Destruction is activated.]
With this message, instead of absorbing the energy of destruction in the air, the Destruction Devourers
Chomp. Chomp.
Started directly biting and eating Alice’s body to absorb the power of destruction.
As a result, Alice’s life force was depleted even faster.
Meanwhile, the Sejun’s companions had been pouring out attacks on Alice for a total of 4 minutes while using 1 set of beans.
However,
“This is fun.”
To Alice, who hadn’t even released one of her four seals yet, Sejun and his companions’ attacks were not threatening at all.
“Release seal.”
“Ugh!”
Just by Alice releasing the first seal, Sejun felt an immense pressure.
Although he managed to endure it, that was all. It was as if he was immobilized by an overwhelming gravitational force.
“Meow! Then Vice Chairman Theo will release his seal too, meow!”
In response to Alice’s seal release, Theo ate Churu and burned money.
Theo shone so brightly it was blinding.
Kueng!
[Cuengi will also release his seal too!]
Cuengi ate the bean set, and released his calm state, exploding his compressed power.
And then,
“One-meow Finger Attack, meow!”
Kueng!
[Cuengi’s Ten Thousand Step Punch!]
The companions started attacking Alice again.
At that moment,
Kiki!
Kiki!
The Destruction Devourers planted on Alice’s back started to cheer energetically and began eating Alice’s now more delicious(?) body.
When Alice released her seal, the Destruction Devourers planted in her body also received the seal release effect, enhancing their abilities.
“Oh.”
Total jackpot.
Thanks to this, the Destruction Devourers, having absorbed an even stronger energy of destruction.
Burp.
Burp.
spewed out more intense energy of creation, relieving the pressure on Sejun’s body and allowing him to move again.
[You’re a Field Lv. 2 is activated.]
···
..
.
Sejun started diligently planting Destruction Devourers on Alice’s back again.
While everyone was fighting, Sejun was farming alone. (TL: So this is what Author meant by farming alone. )
As everyone was busy moving around,
– This is Eomdol. Can you hear me, main body?
Eomdol spoke to the main body through the passage Alice had created.
