‘Stat window’
As I recited the thoughts I had been holding the whole time, a system window appeared in the darkness. The stat window that I had been looking at for so long while playing Elix was correct.
[Do Se-hyeon (before awakening) Race: Human LV.1 Grade: E]
-type radish
-attribute radish
-Health 8/8
-horsepower 7/7
-Attack power 6
-Defense 5
[skill]
-doesn’t exist
there was nothing. Moreover, there are no attributes or types. The penalty for not awakening seemed to mean this. It is literally an unfavorable condition in which one must survive with only weak human characteristics.
As it was, the moment I entered the dungeon and encountered the monster, I would have died.
Baek Do-hyun is also a problem, but Lee Jae-young also seems to have no intention of awakening at the moment, as he is not showing any signs. In this case, if the three were grouped together, it would be a total loss.
Sehyeon cleared the stat window and closed his eyes again. Just thinking about what I experienced today was enough to make me feel sick, so I didn’t want to think about it any more complicatedly. Will things get better tomorrow? Or will I wake up smiling and say it was all a dream?
I don’t know how this happened, but only sighs without an answer escaped me one after another. But even so, I couldn’t feel everything because I was still slightly burned. I had no idea whether this foggy place was real, why I had been called here, or what I had to fight for.
Se-hyeon tried to suppress the wrinkled nose as she finally caught sight of Lee Jae-young, who was trying to sleep while holding on to his clothes. For some reason, I kept getting concerned about the red portal that was left in the white space.
What should I do? While I was repeating those words, Sehyun fell asleep without me knowing. The tears welling up in the corners of her eyes were barely shaking, but they never ended up flowing down.
***
“… what’s this.”
Sehyun blinked with a half-asleep expression and looked at what was in front of her with all her might. Still, I couldn’t quite figure out the object. Only later did I realize that my body was not moving and that what was in front of me was a wall.
As soon as I realized that I was sleeping as one with the wall, I sighed. Moreover, it seemed as if someone was pressing his back with a foot, and his body didn’t move. Only after barely twisting his body to escape was Sehyeon able to find the culprit of this miserable situation.
First of all, the first culprit was Kwak Jeong-han. Lee Jae-young, who was pushed out by Kwak Jeong-han’s size, was the second culprit. It seems that Lee Jae-young, who lost his position to Kwak Jeong-han, pushed Se-hyeon out to survive, but the method was not good. Not only did he push his back with his foot, he even attempted to crush him.
I didn’t understand why they were both lying down in their own places, leaving so much space behind, but looking at the two people sleeping and snoring, I couldn’t help but feel angry.
“… “Should I threaten to ask for more space?”
If I visit them, they will give me more money. I would have thought it was intended to screw you in the first place, but if I thought it would be just one word, I wouldn’t have put four people in here. In the end, Sehyun had no choice but to shake her head with a shocked expression.
In the meantime, I even felt envious of Baek Do-hyun, who was sleeping in a large space. Sehyun was thinking about going over there and sleeping a little longer, but he was also thirsty, so he left the room and got up.
Looking at the light coming through the crack in the door, it seemed like it had already been dawn for some time.
As I opened the door and went out, the fresh morning air seeped deep into my lungs. Se-hyeon took a long breath, stretched out, and walked through the quiet village’s vacant lot toward the well.
As I drew water and drank it from a wooden bowl, I came to my senses. It was as cold as ice water. After drinking water, I sat on the edge of the well and looked around the village. The huts that were close together stood out impressively in the fog.
Everyone was still sleeping, and there wasn’t a single person in the village to be seen. The area around the village was surrounded by thick fog and nothing could be seen. I don’t know if Billwill gave her a place like this on purpose, but it was clear that it was not easy for her to be discovered by the enemy.
As I felt the clear air, it slowly started to feel real. The air in Seoul was never this good. It wasn’t this quiet, and it was a place where the smell of sewage was more familiar than the smell of humid nature.
I didn’t even have enough time to clear my head. I couldn’t even remember how long it had been since I had enjoyed such quiet relaxation.
After sitting like that for a while, a primitive species wandered out and started climbing a small column erected in the middle of the village. Looking at his appearance, he was the village chief’s prince. He climbed up to where there was a large bell, then picked up a large hammer and started hitting it on the ground.
Soon, people started coming out here and there in a trance-like state, as if something big had happened. The same was true for Sehyeon’s cabin.
“W-what!”
“What’s going on?!”
“What’s going on? uh?”
Sehyeon sat on the edge of the well and carefully observed the people coming out in droves. Most people were men, but there were also women. At best, it was around 10 degrees. About 10% of the number of people.
Ellix was a realistic graphics game that maximized realistic appearance rather than cuteness. In addition, you cannot select a character, and since characters with an Australopithecus-like appearance like Kim Gap-jun were mainly selected, it was a joke to say that if a character with a human appearance was selected in Ellix, it was a success. This could be said to be Ellix’s fatal flaw.
I can’t guarantee that it’s because of that, but for some reason, accessibility for female users was low. There was a high probability that the women here were users who approached out of curiosity but left because they were not satisfied. Of course, it may not be true.
This was because there were two female users among the top 10 players in the Elix world rankings. Even considering that it was only 10% of the total number of people, it was an achievement worth gasping for.
“brother! When did you come out? I was surprised when I woke up and it wasn’t there… !”
From far away, I saw Lee Jae-young running in a huff. Looking at his pale face, I felt a little sorry for sneaking out without waking him up. After that, my face was just as pale… Originally, the pale blue Kwak Jeong-han was running behind him.
“I came out early because I was thirsty.”
“Hyung, are you okay? no… How did you sleep, bro? Now, let’s take a seat… . Maybe I kicked it… ?”
“Mr. Sehyun. I’m sorry, I’m really sorry. “I guess I went crazy in my sleep.”
“are you okay. Because it can happen when you sleep… . Jaeyoung, you’re really fine. “I slept well, really.”
It seemed like both of them were startled and ran out as soon as they woke up. Since they were both sleeping in someone else’s place, I could understand how they felt.
Putting everything else aside, Baek Do-hyun, who was slowly walking over there, yawning alone, was the true winner. He was thinking about changing his seat and sleeping, but the Australopithecus prince woke up the people and gathered them towards the platform next to the village chief’s house.
“Everyone, go to the podium.”
Sehyeon also got up and moved along with the people who were moving without knowing why. As I went towards the podium, I saw Kim Gap-jun, who had become the village chief, standing on the podium wearing green clothes. Green clothes were the symbol of the village chief.
“Everyone, take your eyes off me and look at me. Let’s do it quickly, let’s do it quickly.”
While people were looking embarrassed and adjusting their hair, Kim Gap-Jun was standing with his back turned and a sad expression on his face. And when the people’s appearance got better, he put his chin and stomach in and walked out in front of the people.
“I’m only going to say it once, so listen carefully, and if there are people who ask again later, I’ll give you a hard spanking, so you know what. First of all, there will be a total of 3 food procurement groups, and they will be procured for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It’s done in a rotation format, every day. Do you know what rotation is? “The other groups will operate in the same way, so take note.”
Rotation is freezing to death. It must be rotation. In the meantime, Se-hyeon told Lee Jae-young, who asked what Rotation was, that it was just nonsense.
“The cooking team will be operated by one group. I’ll make a place for you next to the well, so you can prepare and serve three meals a day… . hmm… Finding the materials is the problem. “For now, there will be 6 odd-job teams, so go to the forest three times a day and bring whatever you can.”
“What is anything…?” .”
“There are things like trees, rocks, herbs, and tree fruits! If you have any animals, catch them and bring some meat. “Just bring everything you see.”
The job of the chore crew was literally gathering materials. The task was to go out into the forest and collect and procure the materials needed to grow the village. Sometimes animals were caught, so a combat group that used a bit of force was formed.
“Now it’s the Magic Stone Bird that’s the problem… Hmm, there are 20 members of the Magic Stone Team, so if we only have 5 people… Draw it. The Maseok Group will be divided into 4 groups, so please get the schedule from the Archduke later. The magic group will start moving tomorrow, so let them know, and the other group will move around haphazardly! There’s a food procurement team! Why are you standing there so stupidly? “We have to go quickly and get food, are we all going to starve?”
At Kim Gap-jun’s shouting, the residents looked at each other and began to disperse. However, as if something occurred to him later, Kim Gap-jun called the residents together again.
