Chapter 98

n“Where can I get the remaining crops?”
nWhile Sejun was harvesting the remaining carrots and pondering,
nPi Ppi!
nSqueak!
nSqueal!
nSqueaak!
nThe other rabbits who heard the news also gathered in front of the Red Ribbon’s Giant Carrot Altar.
nAnd then,
n‘Sejun will be able to do it!’
n‘Sejun can do it!’
n‘We believe in you, Sejun!’
nThe rabbits started to look at Sejun with expectant eyes.
nHe could feel the burning gaze on the back of his head. Sejun didn’t dare to look back.
n‘This is a lot of pressure.’
nHe wanted to get out of here quickly.
nChomp-chomp.
nYou have consumed the Agility Carrot.
nIt breaks down 30g of body fat and increases agility by 0.5 for 10 minutes.
nSo, Sejun ate the carrots that raised his agility while harvesting them to speed up the work. Thanks to this, he managed to harvest 15,000 carrots in just 2 hours.
nThen, he quickly left the carrot field where the giant carrot altar was and checked the other crops.
nHowever, the Stamina Corn, Exploding Stamina Corn, and pineapples hadn’t even blossomed yet.
n“What should I do?”
nFor the rabbits who were looking longingly at the Giant Carrot Altar, Sejun really wanted to hold the Harvest Festival of Abundance.
nThen,
n“Ah!”
nSejun remembered the Ents. If Ent seeds could be eaten, they might be considered crops. Besides, their numbers had increased, so he thought he could quickly get about 100 seeds of purified Ent.
n“Cuengi!”
nKreung!
nAt Sejun’s call, Cuengi ran over.
n“Let’s go to the western forest!”
nKreung!
nAt Sejun’s words, Cuengi enlarged himself. At the same time, Cuengi was continuously growing and had exceeded 15 meters in height.
nThump.
nCuengi picked up Sejun and placed him on top of his head and prepared to run on four legs.
n“President Park, sit down quickly, meow. You’ll fall.”
n“Okay.”
nAt Theo words, who was hanging on his knee, Sejun sat down on Cuengi’s back and Theo also lay on Sejun’s lap.
nAnd then,
n“Open this, meow!”
nTheo quietly handed out a Churu. He had a plan to get Sejun to sit.
nRip.
n“Here.”
nAs Sejun opened the Churu and gave it to Theo,
nLick lick lick.
nTheo started to eagerly lick the Churu.
nHowever,
nKreung!
nI want to eat too!
nBecause of Theo, who was eating the Churu, Cuengi, the gluttonous king, also asked for something to eat.
n“Cuengi, I’ll give you honey when we arrive. Okay?”
nKreung!
nOkay!
nThump. Thump.
nCuengi started to run quickly toward the western forest on all fours.
nA short time later,
nThanks to Cuengi, who was full of the determination to quickly arrive and eat honey, they arrived in the western forest just 20 minutes after departing.
nThe center of the western forest was still trapped by the ice wall created by Iona’s magic, Avalanche.
nHowever,
n“Wow. What’s all this?”
nSejun was surprised when he saw the completely transformed entrance of the western forest. Grass was growing where it had once been a wasteland.
nAnd,
nThump. Thump.
nThump-thump. Thump-thump.
nBig and small Ents were wandering around the western forest. The number of Ents had increased significantly in the few days that Sejun was absent. Almost about 1,000.
nMunch munch.
nThe Ents were still eating the remaining trees.
nAs Sejun was watching the Ents,
nKreung!
nCuengi, who had shrunk again, pulled out his empty glass bottle and called Sejun.
n“Got it.”
nClink.
nSejun, who received the empty glass bottle from Cuengi, opened the void storage, put the empty bottle in, and took out a glass bottle full of honey.
n“Here you go.”
nKreung!
nCuengi, who received new honey bottle, was overjoyed and quickly began to eat honey after opening the glass bottle.
nJust then,
nThud. Thud.
nThe largest of the ents, a 5m tall ent, approached. It was the first-born Powerful Purified Ent.
nCreak.
nThe Powerful Purified Ent put its branch on Sejun’s shoulder and
nSejun… there’s… a fire… tormenting… us.
nIt began to talk about the fire that was tormenting them.
n“A Fire?”
nCome to think of it, there were traces of fire burns here and there on the bodies of the Ents.
n“I see. If the fire appears again, let me know. And I need about 100 of your seeds.”
nI…understand…
nA while later,
nThump, thump.
nYoung Ents with white seeds on their heads came to Sejun and extended their heads.
nPick… the… seed…
n“Alright.”
nSnap.
nWhen Sejun picked the seed from the Ent’s head,
nYou have obtained a seed of the Purified Ent.
nYour job experience increases slightly.
nYour proficiency in Seed Harvesting Lv. 3 significantly increases.
nThank… you…
nThe ent expressed its gratitude to Sejun, then went back to eating the trees.
nIn that way, about two hours passed and he was able to collect 98 seeds of Purified Ent.
n“What should I do for the remaining one?”
nWhile Sejun was contemplating what crop to offer at the giant carrot altar and waiting for the Ents to bear seeds,
nThump, thump.
nThump, thump.
nThe Ents began to move hastily, picking up the branches that fell to the ground.
nAnd the Powerful Purified Ent approached Sejun,
n“What’s happening all of a sudden?”
nSejun asked, placing his hand on the body of the Powerful Purified Ent.
nFire… has come.
nKieek!
nAt the same time, a scream was heard from the south direction.
n“Theo, Cuengi, let’s go.”
n“Got it, meow!” .
nKreung!
nSejun, feeling uneasy about going alone, took Theo and Cuengi as bodyguards and followed the Ents to the south.
nKieek!
nAll the while they were moving, the scream kept coming.
n“Guys, shall we stick together?”
n“Sounds good, meow!”
nKreung!
nSejun, feeling scared, kept Theo and Cuengi close to him as they moved.
nAs soon as Sejun arrived at the very front of the ents from where the screams were coming,
n“Fire ants?”
nSejun could see the Ents, big and small, fighting with 100 red ants of 1m size. The Ents were overwhelmingly at a disadvantage.
nMost of the young Ents were much smaller than 1m.
nKeieeek!
nCrash.
nThe red ants used their large bodies to overpower the ents, then used their powerful jaws to cut through the ents’ bodies.
nThen,
nThud. Thud.
nWhen the giant Ents approached to block the red ants, the ants emitted flames from their antennae like a flamethrower, attacking the Ents.
nWhoosh.
nThe bodies of the Ents began to burn in the flames spewed from the antennae of the red ants.
n“Create Thundercloud! Rainfall!”
nSwoosh.
nSejun quickly made it rain to extinguish the fire on the ents’ bodies.
nFzzzt.
n“Where did these things come from?”
nSomething new keeps appearing on the 99th floor of this tower.
n“Phew. How many have died…”
nAfter seeing the fight, Sejun realized that there must have been a lot more ents originally. Many ents had been killed by the ants’ attacks.
n“Guys! Attack!”
n“Come out! Gaeron!”
nKrueng!
nAt Sejun’s command, the animals attacked the red ants.
nRibbit!
nThe ground beneath Theo transformed into a black swamp, and then 30m-long Gaeron appeared.
nAnd then,
nRoar.
nGaeron sucked in the rain that Sejun was making, and then
n– Water Cannon!
nWhoosh.
nIt spewed it out towards the ants.
nCrack!
nThe water pressure emitted by Gaeron was so great that it could penetrate rocks, but the ants’ exoskeleton easily withstood Gaeron’s attack.
nInstead, their insides that couldn’t withstand the water pressure started to get destroyed first.
nGuard Theo’s slave, Bug Hunter Gaeron, has killed a Fire Ant Worker.
nGuard Theo receives 90% of the experience points obtained by his slave, Bug Hunter Gaeron.
nYou have gained 450 experience points, which is 50% of the experience points obtained by Guard Theo.
n…
n..
n.
nKrueng!
nMoreover, when Cuengi, who had transformed into a giant, began to stomp and kill the Fire Ant workers, the fight ended in no time.
nSejun examined the exoskeleton of the Fire Ant Worker. He was intrigued, seeing that it withstood Gaeron’s attack. Of course, it turned to dust under Cuengi’s stomping.
nTing.
nDing.
nWhen he stabbed it hard with his dagger, the exoskeleton vibrated slightly and seemed to spread the shock around.
n“This could be useful?”
nIt seemed like it would make decent armor.
n“Let’s take a few.”
nSejun put a few bodies of the Fire Ant workers into the void storage.
nAfter the battle ended,
n“Rainfall!”
nTo prevent the Fire Ant Workers from approaching easily, Sejun had Cuengi dig the ground to create a long pit. This was because he had noticed that the Fire Ant workers avoided water when he made it rain earlier.
nAs Sejun turned to leave after making the pit,
nthump. Thud.
nSejun…please pick… the seeds…
nA 2m tall Ent approached, asking Sejun to pick the 5 seeds grown on its head. It was the Ent that Sejun had saved from the flames earlier.
nSwish. Swish.
nThe Ent’s branch-like limbs playfully tickled Sejun, as if it was trying to be affectionate.
nThwack!
n“Don’t mess around, meow!”
nTheo, warning the Ent, threw a punch towards the Ent’s branch.
nSlap.
nThe Ent, in response, slapped Theo with another branch.
n“Aack! How dare you mess with me, President Theo, meow?! Okay let’s fight, meow!”
nJump.
nAngry, Theo jumped towards the branch but,
nWhoosh.
nThe Ent quickly moved its branch out of the way.
n“Meoooow!”
nSplat.
nTheo chased the branch more eagerly.
nWhoosh. Whoosh.
nThe Ent moved its branches back and forth, evading Theo’s paws. Eventually, Theo was tricked into running around energetically by himself.
nClick.
nYou have obtained 5 seeds from the Purified Ent.
nYour job experience increases slightly.
nYour skill level in Seed Harvesting Lv. 3 increases significantly.
nYour proficiency in Seed Harvesting Lv. 3 is full and the level increases.
nMeanwhile, Sejun had harvested 5 seeds from the Ent’s head, raising his Seed Harvesting skill level to 4.
nAnd,
n-There is a small chance that the number of seeds obtained when Seed Harvesting increases by 2~5 times.
nA new effect was added to the Seed Harvesting skill which had reached level 4.
n“Let’s go now.”
n“That was a good fight, meow! See you next time, meow!”
nTheo was satisfied, even though he was tricked by the Ent.
n“Only one more crop left.”
nSejun was lost in thought as he returned home. There was no rush, so Cuengi moved slowly.
nOnce they arrived home,
nSqueak!
nPi Ppi!
nThe black rabbit and ChuChu, who had been waiting for Sejun, were angry at Sejun and asked where he had gone.
n“No… I just went to gather crops.”
nSqueak?
nBut we have all 10 crops here, where did you go?
nThe black rabbit looked frustrated as he spoke.
n“All 10 are there?!”
nSqueak!
nThe black rabbit nodded his head and led Sejun to the carrot field.
nSejun followed the black rabbit with an expression that said, ‘What are you talking about?’. But then he saw the crops placed in front of the giant carrot alter.
n“Huh?! This is?!”
nAmong the crops, there were two he hadn’t seen before. There was a well-ripened red strawberries and a Cheongyang chili peppers.
n“Ah! How could I have missed these?!”
nOnly then did Sejun remembered that on the 215th day of being stranded, the fifth seed store opened, he bought 100 each of strawberry and Cheongyang chili pepper seeds along with 20,000 carrot seeds.
nSqueak!
n“What? They were hidden behind the corn? I see.”
nIt was no longer important why he hadn’t discovered the strawberries and Cheongyang chili peppers. There was something else of importance.
n“slurp”
nJust looking at the strawberries made his mouth water. He desperately wanted to taste them, but he couldn’t because of the intense gaze of the rabbits watching him from behind.
n‘Right. First things first.’
nAs Sejun regained his composure and approached the giant carrot altar and raised his hand,
nWould you like to offer the crops to the Red Ribbon’s Giant Carrot Altar?
n“Yes.”
nWith Sejun’s response, the crops began to be absorbed into the giant carrot altar, one type at a time.
nThen, a notification appeared before Sejun.
n100 of 1 type of farm produce has been offered.
n100 each of 2 types of farm produce has been offered.
n…
n..
n.
n100 each of 10 types of crops have been offered.
nThe quest has been completed.
nAs a reward for completing the quest, the Harvest Festival of Abundance will be held.
nThe Red Ribbon’s Giant Carrot Alter will randomly summon 1,000 rabbit tribe members to enjoy the Harvest Festival of Abundance.
nA blessing of abundance will be bestowed on the entire floor where the Red Ribbon’s Giant Carrot Alter is located.
nYou have acquired the job skill – Crop Gigantification Lv. 1 as a quest completion reward.
nFinally, the Harvest Festival of Abundance was held.
nSqueak!
nSqueak!
nSqueal!
nPi Ppi!
nWhile Sejun was watching the rabbits celebrate,
n“Huh?!”
nThe seeds of the Ent that Sejun had put in his pocket were sucked into the giant carrot alter.
n100 each of 11 types of crops have been offered.
nThe Harvest Festival of Abundance is enhanced to a Harvest Festival of Abundance and overflowing Mana.
