Solo Farming In The Tower

Administrator Area.

“Ugh, I’m exhausted…”

Aileen, tired from engraving magic onto the fragment of Kai-Ra’s Dragon Heart.

Munch.

She quickly consumed the Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power that Sejun had given her to replenish her magic power.

Thanks to the constant consumption of the elixir-grade cherry tomatoes, her magic power was gradually increasing, which in turn extended her engraving duration slightly.

At that moment,

[Tower Farmer Park Sejun has created the job: Herbalist.]

[The prestige of the Black Tower rises.]

An alert appeared in the crystal orb.

“Kehehe. As expected of, our Sejun!”

Aileen didn’t understand the significance of the rising prestige of the Black Tower, but she was simply happy that Sejun had achieved something.

“This is not the time to relax! I’ll work even harder! Sejun, wait for me!”

Burning with motivation, Aileen began to engrave magic onto the Dragon Heart fragment once more.

Krueng!

[This one’s for Dad to eat, too!]

Emerging from the ground, Cuengi handed Sejun a glowing red kudzu root.

“Okay. Thanks.”

Sejun carefully examined the glowing red kudzu root he received. Lately, he had been extremely uneasy every time Cuengi gave him anything.

[Crimson Flame Kudzu Root]

→ A kudzu root that grew by absorbing nutrients from surrounding kudzus due to its strong will to survive. It underwent an evolution by absorbing the energy of hot fire.

→ Upon consumption, all stats increase by 20, or the potential of all stats increases by 10.

→ Upon consumption, fire attribute related talents are enhanced.

→ It has a strong bitter and spicy taste.

→ Usage restriction: Lv. 55 and above, all stats 100 or above

→ Grade: A+

“It keeps getting tougher.”

Sejun liked the part about the enhancement of the fire attribute related talents upon consumption. However, this time, instead of a sour taste, it included a spicy one.

Just then,

Rumble.

Krueng!

[Dad, Cuengi’s hungry!]

“Just a moment.”

For Cuengi, who had worked hard digging for herbs, Sejun quickly retrieved a box of sweet potatoes from the void storage.

And then,

“Crop Gigantification. Here, Cuengi, eat this.”

Sejun used his skill to enlarge the sweet potato and gave it to Cuengi.

Krueng!

[Thanks, Dad! Cuengi will it eat well!]

Munch munch munch.

Upon receiving the giant sweet potato, Cuengi ate it voraciously.

“Guys, time for lunch!”

After confirming Cuengi was eating well, Sejun called the hedgehogs.

Dadadada.

Responding to Sejun’s call, 10,000 hedgehogs eagerly rushed forward.

Kwieek! Kwieek!

The hedgehogs lined up neatly in front of Sejun.

Then,

“Crop Gigantification.”

Swish. Swish.

Sejun sliced the gigantic sweet potato and handed each hedgehog a piece.

Kwieek!

Each hedgehog, having received a piece as big as itself, expressed gratitude to Sejun and began eating.

Munch. Munch.
