Solo Farming In The Tower

Chapter 279: These are New Varieties!

TL: Hanguk

Swoosh Swoosh.

Puhuhut. Chairman Park, dont stop petting, meow!

Theo urged Sejun to keep petting his belly without slowing down even for a bit.

And then,

Got it. Are we done now?

Puhuhut. Yes, were done, meow!

Sejun diligently petted Theos belly without any complaints, following Theos words.

The reason Sejun was pampering Theo like this was because of a red bead that Theo had found covered in dirt.

The red bead brought by Theo was left behind by the dying Mantis Queen.

Meow?

While Sejun was saying his last goodbye to the Mother Tree, Theo followed his front paws attraction pull to dig up the ground on his own and found it.

Hehehe. This cheeky guy, Ill let it slide because of this.

Sejun smiled as he looked at the red bead in his hand.

[Life Orb]

A bead created by Mantis Queen Itra compressing her life force.

It contains a vast amount of life force.

You can extract and use as much of the life force within the bead as you want.

Usage Restriction: Stamina over 500, Magic Power over 500

Rank: S-

A bead containing a tremendous amount of life force. The life force within the bead was enough to save Sejuns life more than ten times.

Of course, having life force alone doesnt mean one can live, but Sejun, who was always concerned about survival, felt very good about having a life force power bank. Very much so.

Chairman Park, its time for me to eat Churu, meow!

Are you hungry? Alright.

So Sejun was giving Theo everything he wanted, at least until there were no interruptions.

Sniff Sniff.

Kueng?

[Where is this delicious smell coming from?] 𝑖𝘳.𝒸ℴ𝑚

Cuengi, who was asleep, woke up to the smell of Churu.

And then,

Kuehehehe. Kueng!

[Kuehehehe. Lets eat together big brother with Cuengi!]

Cuengi, the gluttonous king, coveted Theos Churu.

I dont want to, meow! This is mine, meow!

Kueng!

[Cuengi want to eat too!]

As the two started to fight,

Here, Cuengi, eat this.

Sejun scooped up a spoonful of homemade Churu for Cuengi with his other hand, naturally ending Theos pampering session.

After eating the Churu,

Lets go to the farm, Toryong.

-Yes, Master.

Sejun called Toryong and moved to the farm with the animals.

***

Tower 43rd Floor.

Lets take a break.

What? Really?

Kim Dong-sik asked if he heard Han Tae-jun correctly since it was the first time Han Tae-jun had given them a rest time outside of eating and sleeping hours.

Yes. Well take a break and then attack the boss.

Okay.

The boss of the 43rd floor was the scorching Wild Boar. Kim Dong-sik thought they had a good chance if Han Tae-jun could shoot magic missiles while he blocked.

However, that was just Kim Dong-siks thought.

You alone.

What?!

Dong-sik, you will fight the boss alone.

Han Tae-jun had a different idea.

Thus began Kim Dong-siks one-on-one battle with the boss.

Thud.

I won!!!

After three hours of fighting, the battle ended in victory for Kim Dong-sik, who fought while eating Sejuns crops.

But it wasnt a complete solo fight; at every dangerous moment, Han Tae-jun attracted the bosss attention with magic missiles to help.

Huff. Huff. Huff.

Kim Dong-sik, exhausted, approached the red crystal. He wanted to sit and rest, but he was more eager to check the clear rewards quickly.

Click.

As Kim Dong-sik finally reached and touched the red crystal,

[You have received 110,000 experience points, 1,000 tower coins, and a Wild Boar leather shield as the clear reward for the 43rd floor.]

[The waypoint for the 43rd floor has been saved.]

[Moving to the 44th floor.]

They moved to the 44th floor.

And then,

Who are you, peng?!

They were surrounded by the Blue-Backed Penguin Tribe.

***

Riding Toryong to the farm.

Gororong.

Kurorong.

Kyurorong.

Baerorong.

Pirorong.

The animals were taking a deep sleep on Sejuns lap and shoulders,

[Seed of the Tree Bearing Birds]

This is a seed of a tree that produces birds instead of fruits through the power of conception.

If the soil where its planted is not rich in nutrients, it may die.

Consuming it grants the power of conception.

Shelf Life: 3 days

Rank: SS

Hmm

Sejun was lost in thought while examining the light green seed, concerned by the description that it could die without sufficient soil nutrients.

Moreover, the shelf life was only 3 days.

Can it be used on soil too?

Sejun thought about using <Power: Abundance!> on the soil to enrich it.

While Sejun was pondering,

-Master, we have arrived.

Okay. Thank you.

Toryong had arrived at the farm.

Click.

Sejun got off the head of Toryong and the animals,

Guys, could you wake up for a moment?

Meow

Kyoot

He only woke up Theo and Iona, in case he needed someone to perform emergency measures should he pass out.

Puhuhut. Chairman Park, what do you need, meow?

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Sejun-nim, whats the matter?

Yeah, just in case

Sejun explained why he woke them up.

Then,

Chairman Park, I, Vice Chairman Theo, oppose using that power, meow! Dont do it, meow!

Theo was immediately opposed to anything that could put Chairman Park in danger. Especially, he disliked anything that could endanger Chairman Parks lap meow!

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Perhaps if you use the Life Orb Vice Chairman Theo brought first when using the power, it could prevent any danger.

On the other hand, Iona, like a true wizard, found the best solution given the situation.

Do you think thats possible?

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes. Ill assist you.

Thanks.

As Sejun thanked Iona,

No, meow!

Theo quickly blocked in front of Iona.

Vice Chairman Theo, what do you mean?

Youre thanking the wrong person, meow! You should be thanking me for bringing the Life Orb, meow!

Ultimately, he meant that Sejun should praise him. I didnt get enough praise earlier, meow!

Right. Oguogu. Our Vice Chairman Theo did well.

As Sejun patted Theos bottom,

Puhuhut. I know, meow! And not there, here, meow!

Theo, quickly becoming proud, lay down to show his belly.

Got it.

Ugh, this rascal

As Sejun reluctantly petted Theos belly,

Kyoot kyoot kyoot.

Pet. Pet.

Iona subtly joined Sejun in petting Theos belly. Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Vice Chairman Theo, youre cute. (TL: )

After sufficiently petting Theos belly,

Iona, are you ready?

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes!

Iona, positioned above Sejuns head, responded while holding the staff of disaster.

The fact that Iona took out the staff of disaster meant she was ready to give her best. One could tell how serious Ionas determination was.

However,

Iona, dont make a mistake, meow!

Theo, clinging to Sejuns leg anxiously, disturbed the concentrating Iona with his noise,

Kyoo- Vice Chairman Theo, please be quiet.

Right. Vice Chairman Theo, shut it.

Meo Okay, meow.

Eventually, after receiving sharp looks from Sejun and Iona, Theo quietly observed.

After a while,

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Sejun-nim, Im ready.

Once Iona was ready,

Abundance.

Holding the Life Orb in his left hand and touching the soil with his right, Sejun used his power.

As the power was activated and Sejuns life force began to rapidly drain through his right hand,

By the power of the curse, follow my command and absorb the life force. Life Drain.

Iona used magic to absorb life force from the Life Orb and directed it into Sejuns body, replenishing his life force.

[The farm is affected by <Power: Abundance!>]

[The fertility of the farms soil doubles.]

Thanks to this, Sejun was able to use the power without risking his life.

The life force used just now by the power was 10% of Sejuns own life force. The land was so barren that even after doubling its fertility, not much life force was consumed.

Swoosh.

Sejun touched the soil with his finger to check its texture.

I might have to use the power a few more times?

Looking at the dry, crumbly soil, Sejun said.

Even though the power had doubled the soils fertility, it was still barren.

Iona, Im going to do it once more.

Kyoot kyoot kyoot. Yes!

Using the power would double the soils fertility again, so twice as much life force would be needed.

Considering the life force contained in the Life Orb, it seemed like he could use it about seven times.

Abundance.

As Sejun used the power again, life force escaped from his right hand and seeped into the ground.

[The farm is affected by <Power: Abundance!>]

[The fertility of the farms soil doubles.]

After the second use of the power, the soil became a bit sticky.

Iona, one more time. Abundance.

Thus, with Ionas help, when Sejun used the power for the sixth time on the farms land,

[The farm is affected by <Power: Abundance!>]

[The fertility of the farms soil doubles.]

[The farms soil is too fertile to use the power.]

The message indicated that the farms soil had reached its peak fertility.

Good. This should be enough.

After checking the message, Sejun carefully took out the Seed of the Tree Bearing Birds,

Thump.

He made a hole in the ground with his dagger,

Swoop.

Inserted the seed into the ground along with putting magic power, and covered it up.

[You have planted the Seed of the Tree Bearing Birds in soil imbued with magic power.]

[Your job experience has increased slightly.]

[Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 8, the probability of the Seed of the Tree Bearing Birds taking root increased.]

[Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 8, the growth speed of the Seed of the Tree Bearing Birds accelerates for 24 hours.]

[Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 8, the probability of obtaining a new variety increases by 5 times.]

[Your proficiency of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 8 increases slightly.]

[Due to the effect of Proficiency Increase Lv. 1, your proficiency in Seed Sowing Lv. 8 increases by an additional 5%.]

And then,

Peek.

i

A shy little sprout broke through the soil. The ample nutrients in the soil seemed to speed up its growth.

Oh! Its already sprouting?!

Sejun sat on the ground and excitedly observed the sprouting Birds Bearing Tree.

Then,

Wide open.

Y

As the sprout opened,

Kugugung.

With a huge vibration,

-Ssaaak!

The sprouting Birds Bearing Tree began to grow rapidly with a strange shout.

Thats why it dies without nutrients

As Sejun was being dragged into the sky by the clothes caught on the Birds Bearing Tree,

Huh?!

Sejuns eyes caught sight of a vast land floating in the distance. The land was slowly fading and disappearing.

Isnt that the garden that was there before?

As Sejun recalled Emilias garden,

-Ssak! Ssak!

The fully grown Birds Bearing Tree started making strange noises as its branches began to bud,

Pop. Pop.

Between the buds, Egg Fruits swelled up as if air was being blown into a balloon, and then they opened.

Oh!

Thanks to that, Sejuns interest quickly shifted to the Egg Fruits,

Pop. Pop.

He began to diligently pick the Egg Fruits.

Then,

Huh?

Sejuns eyes started to spot Egg Fruits of different colors scattered around. Yellow, red, green, blue, and a fifth Egg Fruit with stripes of all four colors.

Thump-Thump. Thump-Thump.

These are new varieties!

Sejuns heart raced as he intuitively realized that these five Egg Fruits were new varieties.

Phew.

Pluck.

After taking a deep breath to calm his heart, Sejun picked the closest red Egg Fruit,

[You have harvested an Elixir: Stamina Egg Fruit.]

[Your job experience has increased slightly.]

[Your proficiency in Harvesting Lv. 7 increases slightly.]

[You have gained 1,000 experience points.]

Messages appeared with the name of the Egg Fruit, which he saw for the first time.

And then,

[You have achieved the feat of creating a new variety in the tower.]

..

.

Messages announcing the achievement of creating a new variety appeared. It was a new variety, just as Sejun had expected.

Great!

Sejun hurriedly began to pick the other colored Egg Fruits.

***

Inside the 10th tower.

Umm Where is this?

The great silver dragon, Stella Hisron, regained consciousness.
