Solo Farming In The Tower

Vladivostok, Russia.

Caw. Caw.

“Ah. So noisy.”

“Why are those things acting like that?!”

“Ugh! Such bad luck!”

People were annoyed as they watched hundreds of thousands of crows flying in the sky, forming two giant concentric circles.

The crows had been crying out like that for already three hours.

It was understandable that people were getting annoyed.

As the people were getting annoyed,

Caw. Caw.

“Huh?! There they gather again!”

“What?!”

People saw tens of thousands more crows flying in, joining the giant flock as if they were originally part of it, and together they formed two concentric circles.

The crows kept flocking in, and before long, their number had surpassed a million.

And then,

[Н Э Ю Ц Ч Ð]

Faint, blood-colored letters began to appear between the two concentric circles formed by the crows.

As the crows’ behavior became ominous,

Thump. Thump.

Several helicopters filled with soldiers approached, shooting at the crows with machine guns.

However, far from running away,

Caw. Caw.

Some crows broke away from the flock and dove at the helicopters, attacking the soldiers.

The crows, with their eyes turned blood-red, attacked the soldiers.

“Aargh!”

A moment later,

Boom! Bang!

Helicopters crashed in the city center.

“Kayak!”

“Run away!”

Seeing the abnormal behavior of the crows and the helicopters being taken down, people hurriedly fled the city.

In the meantime,

Caw. Caw.

The crows continued to draw the two concentric circles, and as the sky darkened, the blood-colored letters were completed.

Then,

Whoosh.

In the center of the middle circle, a chilling red eyeball appeared, peering out from the darkness.

-Hmm… This dimension doesn’t seem to be anything special…

Blink.

The red eyeball blinked in wonder, and then,

Drip.

A single drop of red tear fell from the hole to Earth, closing the hole.

And then,

Swoosh.

The red tear spread out, swallowing up all the surrounding crows.

The crows turned into a giant black mass.

Crack. Crackle.

In an instant, this form changed into the second seat of the Apostles of Destruction, the Crow of Death, Halphas,

Halphas had sent a fragment of himself to Earth to directly command the calamities.

Sending a fragment to another dimension came with significant restrictions, so it was a very weak fragment.

Of course, there was no one on Earth who could oppose a fragment of Halphas.

-Kukukuk. Be honored to face the army led by me, the Crow of Death, Halphas. Come forth, calamities.

With Halphas’ words, dozens of small holes appeared around,

Flap. Flap.

Black locusts, their bodies entirely black, started pouring out.

“Done! Ajax, good job.”

“Yep! Hyung!”

Sejun, having harvested all the pears, praised Ajax for his help.

Turning around, Sejun saw 10,000 pears neatly placed on the dry ground to evaporate the moisture.

The remaining 490,000 were, due to laziness, temporarily stored in Sejun and Theo’s bag.

“Hehehe. We picked a lot.”

Sejun wore a proud expression.

At that moment

[Your soul feels fulfilled.]

[Your Mental Strength increases by 1.]

A message appeared.

“Ah. So, this is when mental strength increases.”

Sejun roughly grasped when the soul becomes filled.

It seemed that the soul gets filled after using Tower Farmer skills like Harvesting or Seed Harvesting, feeling a sense of accomplishment or pride.
