Secret hideout of the Three Head Society on the 49th floor of the tower.

“Master Akhiro! It’s urgent!”

“What is it…?”

A long-haired man in light clothing, wearing just his bottoms and a sword on each side of his waist, looked at his subordinate with an exhausted voice.

On the left side of the man’s chest, a distinct black tattoo of three snakes forming a circle was visible. Uniquely, only one of the snakes had golden eyes.

“The secret hideout on the 33rd floor is under attack!”

“The 33rd floor…? Why would that be urgent? The 33rd floor’s hideout is a heavenly fortress. No one can enter.”

“The situation is not as simple… The hideout has been surrounded by 2 million Black Orcs.”

“What?! 2 million? Ha ha ha! Then, that Pablo guy must be having a hard time.”

As Akhiro said, the hideout on the 33rd floor, located on a narrow cliff top, was an impregnable fortress, even capable of facing millions with just 100 members.

Especially near the top, the cliff’s slope exceeded 90 degrees, reaching around 150 degrees, making it impossible to climb without a magic elevator from the hideout. If they held their ground, the enemies would have no choice but to retreat.

However,

“The situation isn’t as optimistic as we hoped.”

“What do you mean?”

“The crazy Black Orcs are trying to topple the cliff by digging at its base.”

These enemies were beyond their understanding.

“What?! They’re doing such a crazy thing?!”

“Yes.”

“They can still use parachutes to escape, right?”

“That’s also difficult.”

“Why?!”

“The 200 Black Wolves accompanying the Black Orcs are pursuing and capturing the hunters trying to escape by parachute.”

They might even have learned the locations of other hideouts from the captured hunters.

“Damn it… Quickly prepare all our forces! We need to reinforce the hideout on the 33rd floor.”

The 33rd floor was a crucial facility for the Three Head Society. If it fell, all their plans would be set back.

“Still, moving all our forces is…”

“It’s okay. Did you forget what kind of place this is?”

“Ah!”

At Akhiro’s words, the subordinate seemed convinced. This hideout was almost plastered with deadly traps. According to the trap setter, some traps were lethal even to the monsters of the 70th floor.

If the enemies came here, it would become hell for them.

“I’ll relay your orders, Master Akhiro!”

But as the subordinate turned around to convey Akhiro’s orders,

Boom!

A massive explosion from above caused the ceiling to collapse, burying the secret hideout of the Three Head Society.

***

“This is the entrance?”

Sejun, guided by the Black Wolves, asked upon reaching the dark entrance of a cave.

“Yes, it is.”

“Hmm. I don’t feel like going in…”

Places like this often had many traps, and who knows if it might collapse.

“Chairman Park, don’t go in, meow! I have a bad feeling!”

And with Theo also advising against it,

“Hmm. Cuengi, it’s time for the Giant Superhero Landing Attack!”

Sejun decided to just bring down the enemy’s hideout and then search. Although it was an inefficient approach, it was the safest for Sejun.

With Cuengi’s excellent sense of smell and the wolves around, they could speed up the search!

Krueng!

Got it!

Boom!

Upon hearing Sejun’s words, Cuengi excitedly jumped and expanded mid-air. Sejun rarely let him unleash his full power.

In an instant, the 27m tall Cuengi, after expanding to a height of 100m, majestically performed a superhero landing about 500m away from the cave entrance.

Boom!

With a tremendous sound, the ground within a 100m radius of Cuengi sank about 20m.

Then,

Crash!

The force of Cuengi’s landing caused a second collapse, sinking the ground in a 500m radius around Cuengi.

Krueng?

Dad, wasn’t Cuengi awesome?

From the center of the sunken ground, Cuengi raised his fist and shouted triumphantly to Sejun.

Thumbs up.

Sejun gave a thumbs up to praise Cuengi. No words were needed. Our son is the best!

Kuehehehe!

But as Cuengi was dancing in delight from Sejun’s praise,

Flash!

A golden light burst from the ground.

And then,

Crash!

A blood-covered golden snake emerged from the ground.

“Cuengi, catch it!”

Sejun shouted, feeling that he shouldn’t let it escape.

Krueng!

Understood!

Bang!

Cuengi’s foot pressed down on the snake’s head, pinning the golden snake to the ground.

-Kreak!!

The golden snake writhed, trying to free itself from Cuengi’s foot, but his foot was firm.

-Hiss!

The golden snake changed its strategy and coiled around Cuengi’s leg, trying to squeeze him. But Cuengi remained unaffected.

Moments later,

Thud.

The struggling snake went limp and collapsed.

Krueng!

It fainted!

As Cuengi picked up the limp golden snake to hand over to Sejun,

Flash.

With a burst of golden light, the golden snake turned to dust and began to disintegrate.

Krueng?

By the time Cuengi first stepped on the snake’s head, its skull had already been crushed, and it was already dying.

Clink.

Something fell to the ground as the golden snake disappeared entirely.

Then,

Guard Cuengi has defeated the 7th head of the snake, Hydra, 10th Apostle of Destruction that infiltrated the Black Tower.

You’ve gained 10 million experience points, 50% of the experience points earned by Guard Cuengi.

A message appeared announcing the experience gained.

“Apostles of Destruction? Hydra?”

Sejun was puzzled by these unfamiliar terms when,

Level Up.

Acquired 1 Bonus Stat.

Level Up.

Acquired 1 Bonus Stat.

Level Up.

Acquired 1 Bonus Stat.

Sejun had leveled up three times and reached level 60, all thanks to the immense amount of experience he gained.

A quest has been generated.

Job Quest: Sprout 10 million seeds.

Rewards: Unlock level 61, 500,000 Tower Coins, and a Job Combat Skill.

Upon reaching level 60, a new job quest appeared. Sprouting 10 million seeds seemed like a colossal task, but Sejun wasn’t focused on that. He was excited about the rewards.

Job. Combat. Skill.

Who would have thought that even a Tower Farmer job would have a combat skill! Sejun was thrilled at the thought of finally having his own combat skill.

Then,

Achievement unlocked: You’ve achieved the feat of being the first Tower Farmer to defeat an Apostle of Destruction in combat.

You’ve received the title: Hunter of Destruction.

Although Cuengi did all the fighting, because Cuengi was Sejun’s guard, the merit of defeating the golden snake was credited to Sejun.

“Oh! Hunter of Destruction?”

The title alone sounded impressive.

Krueng!

Daddy, Cuengi found this!

Cuengi handed Sejun a bronze-colored coin that the golden snake had dropped. On one side of the coin was a snake with nine heads, and on the other was the number 7.

“What’s this?”

Sejun examined the coin.

Hydra’s 7th Bronze Coin

???

The coin could not be appraised, so no details were provided.

“Aileen, can you appraise this?”

The Tower’s Administrator says, leave it to her.

10 minutes later.

The Tower’s Administrator says she cannot appraise this item as it came from outside the tower. She says she will consult with his grandfather and asks you to wait.

“Alright.”

Sejun thought that if even Kaiser needed to see the item, it might take some time.

“Guys, for now, check if there’s anything suspicious around.”

Sejun ordered the wolves to scout the area as they couldn’t just wait idly by for Aileen.

“Yes!”

The wolves rushed to the ground where Cuengi was and began sniffing for scents. The Black Orcs followed them.

Soon,

“We smell something here!”

“Dig here!”

Whenever the Black Wolves found a scent, the Black Orcs dug up the ground to investigate.

While the Black Wolves and Black Orcs were searching the collapsed Three Head Society,

“I should plant green onions here.”

Having nothing else to do, Sejun decided to plant green onions in the area.

Krueng!

Daddy, it’s done!

At Sejun’s request, Cuengi diligently prepared the soil for farming. Sejun could also use his skills to prepare the soil, but he wanted to save his magic power and thus asked Cuengi.

“Good job. Land Moving!”

Sejun scattered 500 seeds of the Sturdy Blade Green Onions on the field and swung the Myler’s hoe, and used his skill.

Swish.

You’ve planted 500 seeds of Sturdy Blade Green Onions in the magic power-infused soil.

Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6, the chances of the Sturdy Blade Green Onions taking root increases.

Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6, the growth speed of the Sturdy Blade Green Onions increases for 24 hours.

9,999,500 times remaining to complete the Job Quest.

“Great.”

In a single scoop, 500 seeds were planted. Only 20,000 times more to complete the job quest. Of course, Sejun would probably pass out from magic power exhaustion before that.

Krueng!

It’s all done!

“Yes. Land Moving!”

Thus, as Cuengi made the fields and Sejun continued to plant seeds, when about 20,000 seeds were planted,

The Tower’s Administrator says the appraisal is complete.

The Tower’s Administrator, along with Grandpa Kaiser and Grandpa Kellion, appraised it, but it’s not perfect.

Along with Aileen’s message, a coin appeared in Sejun’s hand.

Hydra’s 7th Bronze Coin

→ The aura of the world swallowed by the 7th head of Hydra, the nine-headed snake, holding the 10th seat among the 12 Apostles of Destruction, can be faintly felt.

→ There isn’t enough information, and some details are still undisclosed.

→ Usage limit: ???

→ Creator: Apostle of Destruction, 10th seat, Nine-headed snake, Hydra

→ Grade: ???

“But Aileen, what’s this Apostle of Destruction?”

The Tower’s Administrator says that the Apostles of Destruction are beings who have directly received power from Destruction, and even the grandpas don’t know much about them.

“Really?”

Being unknown even to the dragons… Sejun felt chills all over his body. He wondered what would have happened if Cuengi hadn’t taken the first strike earlier.

‘What would we have done without our Cuengi?’

Suddenly, Cuengi looked very adorable to him.

“Have a snack, Cuengi!”

As Sejun took out honey and sweet potatoes from the storage,

Krueng! Krueng!

It’s snack time! Exciting!

Cuengi, who had been shoveling the soil with his front paws, hurriedly ran over on all fours.

And then,

Krueng!

Cuengi has taken his seat! .𝘤𝘰

Cuengi sat politely in front of Sejun, waiting for his snack. Cute. So adorable. Hehehe.

“Here, eat a lot.”

Sejun brought out a jar of honey and even the saved banana.

Krueng!

Thank you for the snack!

Cuengi started to eat the honey and other foods hastily.

As Sejun was watching Cuengi eat with contentment,

“Chairman Park, did you forget something, meow?”

Theo called Sejun in a displeased tone. It wasn’t mealtime yet, but Cuengi was fed first, which seemed to upset him.

“Huh?! What? What did I forget?”

Sejun replied as if he didn’t know anything. Meanwhile, with his right hand, he secretly opened the lid of a jar. It was tuna porridge made as a tonic for Theo, a homemade treat.

“I’m disappointed, meow! How could you forget, meow! Meow?!”

Theo, with a sad expression, spoke to Sejun, then sniffed.

Sniff. Sniff.

He smelled something delicious.

“Puhuhut. Chairman Park, what is it, meow? What have you hidden, meow? Bring it out quikly, meow!”

Theo, unable to hide his laughter, laid down on Sejun’s lap and acted cute.

“Alright, Theo. Let’s eat something delicious too.”

Sejun scooped out the tuna porridge he had hidden and put it in a small plate for Theo.

“Meow! I always believed in Chairman Park, meow!”

Chomp chomp chomp.

Theo began to eat the tuna porridge enthusiastically. There was a hint of moistness in his eyes.

‘This guy…. lying…’

Sejun pretended to pat Theo’s head but actually wiped away the moisture from his eyes.

On Day 319 of being stranded, despite meeting the Apostle of Destruction, it was an uneventful day.
