Solo Farming In The Tower

TL: Hanguk

75th floor of the tower.

Office of the Chairman of the Wandering Merchant Association, Mason, a fox tribe member.

Hannibal, the Chairman of the Freelance Mercenaries Association, a tiger tribe member.

Iona, the Chairman of the Wizard’s Association, a hamster tribe member.

The heads of the three major powers that influence all floors of the tower have gathered.

“It’s been five days since the Red Locusts appeared on the 67th floor of the tower. According to our information, two-thirds of the 67th floor has been devastated by the Red Locusts. Currently, the lizardmen are desperately defending around the waypoint.”

Mason relayed the information he had gathered.

“Why isn’t the Great Black Dragon intervening?”

Iona asked with a worried voice.

“Honestly, I don’t know. But we can’t just wait like this. This could lead to another famine like a hundred years ago.”

The great famine of a hundred years ago started when the Red Locusts invaded the 55th floor of the tower, the greatest grain-producing area in the tower.

There had been invasions by the Red Locusts before, but the Great Black Dragon always intervened, so the inhabitants of the tower didn’t see it as a significant problem.

However…

For some reason, the Great Black Dragon appeared a few hours after the invasion of the Red Locusts that time.

As a result, the rabbit kingdom, Red Ribbon, that ruled the 55th floor, perished. They were unlucky as the Red Locusts appeared above their kingdom. This caused a severe food shortage throughout the tower.

“That’s right. It’s only a matter of time before the waypoint gets overrun. If the Red Locusts occupy the waypoint on the 67th floor of the tower like this, they will soon start moving to the upper floors.”

Hannibal strongly agreed with Mason’s statement.

If the Red Locusts take over the waypoint on the 68th floor of the tower, the next will be the 69th floor.

And on the 69th floor of the tower was a large drake farm owned by the kingdom of the lizardmen. That place was one of the five major grain-producing areas of the tower. This was not just a problem for the lizardmen.

As food supplies decrease, so does the circulation of food, leading to price increases, and those who can’t afford food starve to death or turn into thieves.

The overall order of the tower collapses. They had already experienced it once, so they knew very well how severe the damage would be.

“The Wandering Merchant Association will provide materials equivalent to a million tower coins in military expenses.”

“The Freelance Mercenary Alliance will dispatch ten thousand mercenaries.”

“The Wizard’s Association will send two hundred war mages.”

Thus, reinforcements set off to stop the Red Locusts on the 67th floor of the tower.

38th floor of the tower.

“When the heck is the Cat Wandering Merchant coming?!”

“Let’s wait a little longer, if he doesn’t show up today, we’ll leave.”

Five hunters were waiting for Theo at a crossroad he would pass before arriving at the trading place.

They were kidnappers who aimed to capture Theo and find the location of the farm with the Magical Cherry Tomatoes, as they were selling at a high price recently.

At that moment,

“Meow meow meow.”

The sound of Theo’s humming could be heard.

“He’s coming.”

The hunters quickly hid behind the wall.

And then,

‘It’s time!’

Just as the hunters were about to pounce towards Theo,

“Grrrr. How dare you lay hands on Representative Theo!”

“Grrrr. Pitiful fools.”

Suddenly, two silver wolves appeared behind them, slightly exposing their fangs and growling,

‘What the?!’

The hunters were startled by their presence and fainted.

“Meow meow meow. Money is rolling in, meow!”

Theo took the hunters’ thumbs and stamped them on a contract while humming.

‘Puhuhut. You targeted me, so pay me a lot of money, meow!’

In Theo’s head, there was a formula: ‘The enemy attacking me = the enemy giving me money.’

‘Puhuhut. Park Sejun said my life is worth 10,000 Tower coins, meow!’
