Solo Farming In The Tower

“The Apostles of Destruction even entered the pond…”

Sejun was lost in deep thought with a serious expression on his face.

Theo and Cuengi hadn’t emerged from the pond yet, but he wasn’t worried about them. They were capable of hunting the Apostles of Destruction, and there was also Iona, who was sleeping on Theo’s tail.

If it became truly dangerous, Iona would intervene, so Sejun wasn’t too concerned.

Then,

[The Tower’s Administrator is asking if you’re alright.]

Aileen inquired about Sejun’s condition.

“Me? I’m fine. Theo and Cuengi took care of it.”

Sejun reassured Aileen, assuming she was worried about the Apostles of Destruction.

[The Tower’s Administrator says she’s relieved.]

[The Tower’s Administrator says she was worried when she heard that the Apostles of Destruction suddenly infiltrated the 99th floor of the tower.]

The Apostles of Destruction, entering through the Dimensional Sea, didn’t conceal their aura. Thus, as soon as they entered the tower, the tower’s system detected them, and Aileen also realized the invasion.

If Theo and Cuengi had been slightly late, Aileen would’ve directly confronted and defeated the Apostles of Destruction.

Thanks to this, Sejun realized that if the Apostles of Destruction enter through the Dimensional Sea, Aileen would be the first to know.

“That’s a relief.”

Sejun felt relieved hearing Aileen’s words. If the Apostles that entered through the Dimensional Sea had come out of the pond, the first one they would have encountered would be the vulnerable Flamie. By the time Sejun would have noticed, it might have been too late.

After finishing his conversation with Aileen and farming for about an hour,

[The Stamina Corns are grateful for the farmer’s footsteps and lend their strength.]

[Your Stamina stat potential has increased from 100 to 101.]

Sejun’s Stamina potential increased by 1.

“Nice.”

Sejun beamed with pride and refocused on his farming.

Then,

Splash.

“Chairman Park, we’re back, meow!”

Krueng!

[Cuengi caught a tuna!]

Theo and Cuengi emerged from the pond. Theo was empty-handed, while Cuengi proudly held 2 massive tuna in each of his front paws. It was clear at first glance that Cuengi was the victor.

“So, Cuengi won?”

“No, meow! I caught tuna too!”

Theo, taking offense at Sejun’s remark, started pulling out giant tunas from his bag, two just like Cuengi’s. They were of similar size.

It was thanks to Flamie, who had released four tunas of similar size into the pond to prevent them from fighting.

“And here are the coins I got, meow!”

Theo handed over four green coins and five gray coins to Sejun.

“This many?!”

Sejun exclaimed in surprise as he received the nine coins.

Krueng!

[Cuengi has one more coins! That means Cuengi won!]

Cuengi claimed his victory because he had one more gray coin.

“No, meow! I have this, meow! The victory belongs to me, Vice Chairman Theo, meow!”

Theo pulled out a thin, elongated object from his bag, about the size of Sejun.

Krueng?

[Isn’t that just a stone?]

Cuengi tilted his head, wondering why his elder brother brought a useless stone that couldn’t even be eaten.

“Puhuhut. This isn’t an ordinary stone, meow! My paws were attracted to it, meow!”

Theo proclaimed confidently. His paws were indeed attracted to it, and Chairman Park’s satisfaction level was around 8-9 points, which was not bad.

“What is this?!”

As Sejun examined what Theo brought, he became excited.

[Giant Deep Sea Oyster]

It wasn’t a stone, but an oyster.

“Vice Chairman Theo, take out your claw.”

Sejun instructed Theo, holding his paw.

“Puhuhut. Alright, meow!”
