Solo Farming In The Tower

“As the Earth Defense Force, we have planted sturdy blade green onion leaves to stop the spread of the locusts, so we urge the citizens of Brasília, please do not panic and follow the government’s directives.”

After debuting on broadcast as Captain K of the Earth Defense Force, Han Tae-jun reassured people by doing interviews with other broadcasting stations.

Just when Brasília was successfully fending off the locust invasion with sturdy blade green onion leaves,

“What’s the use of only protecting the capital?!”

“What about our farms?!”

Farm owners from other parts of Brazil, worried about locusts invading their farms, started to protest and demand the planting of sturdy blade green onion leaves on their farms as well.

However,

“We refuse.”

Han Tae-jun firmly refused. The situation was already critical, with all the sturdy blade green onion leaves supplied from the tower barely enough to defend Brasília. There was no room to spare any for other places.

And soon, the initially planted sturdy blade green onion leaves in Brasília would need to be replaced.

Because, unlike in the tower, the sturdy blade green onion leaves planted on Earth gradually lose their rigidity over time. Dividing the sturdy blade green onion leaves and replanting was not an option.

Ultimately, the only way to accommodate the farmers’ request was to increase the quantity of sturdy blade green onion leaves transported from the tower.

‘But that’s easier said than done…’

While Han Tae-jun was deep in thought,

“Master! There’s a big trouble!”

Cha Si-Hyeok, Han Tae-jun’s first disciple, rushed over.

“What happened?”

“The youngest ones transporting the sturdy blade green onion leaves from the tower were ambushed by another hunter, and the green onion leaves were stolen.”

“What?! How are the young ones?”

“Well… Jang Rin lost his right arm resisting until the end.”

“Damn it. Jang Rin, that foolish guy…”

Han Tae-jun gritted his teeth in rage.

He had spent a lot of time with the Black Wolf Gang, getting to know their backgrounds and why they resorted to stealing from other hunters.

They all came from an orphanage in rural China and stole to fund its operations. Having grown up witnessing thievery, when they became hunters, they naturally resorted to theft.

However, living with Han Tae-jun made the Black Wolf Gang realize there was a different way to live, and their mindset started to change.

And then,

“Master Tae-jun, please take us as your disciples!”

“We want to live righteously!”

The Black Wolf Gang, now desiring a righteous life, asked to become Han Tae-jun’s disciples, believing he could lead them on the right path.

“If you want to be my disciples, you must first atone for your past misdeeds.”

Acknowledging past wrongs was a prerequisite to living righteously. After much consideration, Han Tae-jun made them apologize to all the hunters they had harmed and arranged compensation as a condition for accepting them as disciples.

“We are truly sorry!”

“We will definitely compensate for the damages!”

Han Tae-jun personally guaranteed the monetary compensation, and they gradually repaid it, leading to the withdrawal of all reports against the Black Wolf Gang.

With the chairman of the Korean Awakened Association personally vouching for them, the hunters accepted the agreement, and only after all complaints were withdrawn did Han Tae-jun accept the Black Wolf Gang as his disciples.

Since then, the Black Wolf Gang, now Han Tae-jun’s disciples, worked diligently and tried hard to lead an earnest and responsible life.

And after joining the Earth Defense Force, they took pride in helping others and gave their best. However, now someone dared to harm them, who were trying to live righteously!

“Gather everyone! We’re going into the tower immediately!”

“Yes!”

Han Tae-jun entrusted the sturdy blade green onion leaves farm to Lucilia, the deputy head of the Earth Defense Force and the guild master of the Wizard Guild, and led his disciples into the tower.
