[Episode 06] Construction (4)
A strange rumor was spreading among the survivors.
The story was that if you catch a goblin, you get ‘money’.
[You have hunted a Goblin (Lv. 7).]
[Gain experience points.]
[1,024 won was deposited into citizen Kim Min-ho’s wallet.]
‘···Really?’
I never would have guessed that this change would have occurred while I was away from hunting for a few days, cleaning up the messy house and taking a break.
As Kim Min-ho was momentarily lost in thought, a goblin approached from behind him.
Whaaaa …
His surprise attack was thwarted when an arrow pierced his temple.
Moon Hae-ri, the one who shot the arrow, shouted at Kim Min-ho.
“Mr. Kim! Focus!”
“sorry!”
Kim Min-ho, who came to his senses at that sound, put strength into the hand holding the spear again.
‘Let’s focus on the battle for now.’
This was a place where trick hunting in an apartment with a safe zone could not be used.
If you take your eyes off them even for a moment, you’re likely to be attacked by goblins.
In particular, I had to be on edge because there were some guys who occasionally carried dangerous weapons like kitchen knives or awls.
In fact, Kim Min-ho had already been taken advantage of by such people several times and had to rely on Kim Da-jeong.
“Ugh!”
[You have hunted a Goblin (Lv. 7).]
[Gain experience points.]
[1,033 won was deposited into citizen Kim Min-ho’s wallet.]
Kim Min-ho’s party was only three people, but it was quite high-level.
In particular, Moon Hae-ri, a national team graduate, and Nam Ji-ho, a former special forces soldier, had extraordinary archery skills, so hunting a few goblins was a piece of cake from the first time they hunted.
It was also because he started off with support from Kim Jae-hyun with his bow and spear, but first of all, Moon Hae-ri and Nam Ji-ho’s archery skills were that great.
Since we started the fight by shooting arrows from a distance and reducing the number of enemies to at least five or six, the hunting difficulty was bound to be easy.
Moreover, Nam Ji-ho was so skilled at using a spear that he had no problem engaging in close combat with goblins that approached him.
In the beginning, he was able to wipe out almost all the goblins by himself.
‘They’re on a whole other level from muscle-bound figures like me.’
Of course, since he didn’t just exercise haphazardly, Kim Min-ho also quickly became accustomed to combat.
As Kim Min-ho became more accustomed to using the spear, the three of them were now able to deal with a dozen goblins without any problem.
“Whew. Thank you for your hard work.”
“Minho too~. Haha.”
Kim Min-ho asked the party members.
“By the way, have you seen it? They really do give you money for catching goblins.”
“That’s wrong. I’ve seen notifications about gaining experience points from goblins before, but this is the first time I’ve seen money appear. I did earn about five thousand won, though… Hey, how much did you earn?
“Six thousand won.”
“Then if we add the two of us together, it will be over ten thousand won!”
Moon Hae-ri seemed to be feeling a little pleasure from the money she got every time she caught a goblin.
Kim Min-ho said.
“But where is this money being spent?”
“well.”
Nam Ji-ho said in passing.
“Something is happening on the first floor.”
“Oh my! I saw it too. Is there anything I can buy?”
Moon Hae-ri looked excited with anticipation, but Kim Min-ho didn’t seem to have much hope.
Because I was doing well enough without any shortcomings even now.
The Kim Min-ho family and Nam Ji-ho family were the first to be recognized for their achievement of hunting 100 goblins, and were promised full support by Kim Jae-hyun.
With electricity, water, and gas supplied, they were able to lead a normal life at home, and they were also living in abundance with support from things like eggs and milk.
In fact, the need for money is hardly felt.
Still.
“Haha. Let’s make a lot of money today.”
“Is that so?”
“There’s nothing wrong with having money.”
The money coming from the goblins stimulated their hunting desire.
This wasn’t something that only applied to Kim Min-ho’s party.
People who had lost interest after completing the basic quest of hunting 10 goblins are starting to take an interest in hunting goblins one by one.
It was after a mysterious space called a store was created on the first floor of an apartment that it really caught fire.
***
I strained my eyes and stared into space with all my might.
At that moment.
Crackle! Crackle!
Sparks flew from the air.
‘It’s a success. Next is···.’
This time, I moved to a different location and focused my senses while looking at the bathroom bathtub.
Okay then.

Ugh-
A large drop of water appeared in the air and fell into the bathtub.
Crash! Crash! Crash!
This time it was a success again.
‘I’m kind of used to it now.’
It wasn’t a newly awakened skill.
It was purely a matter of maintaining dignity.
‘I feel like a wizard.’
He was a wizard who used money instead of mana.
‘For now, I can handle these three things with certainty: electricity, water, and gas.’
In the first place, supplying electricity, water, and gas was a huge national system.
But as monsters appeared and the system collapsed, there was no way to supply them.
However, I was able to use my dignity skills to provide electricity and water to anywhere within my house, or even within the declared area of my home.
It is possible to create them.
Naturally, I came to the conclusion that I could create electricity, gas, and water within the realm, and after some practice, I was able to consciously create these.
‘after.’
That was when.
[The daily sales of the store are settled.]
[320,981 won was deposited into the wallet of the absolute owner of the house.]
Just a 20% profit is 320,000 won.
In other words, the store’s sales today alone exceeded 1.5 million won.
Of course, this meant that many citizens were hunting monsters and saving money to buy items at the store.
I looked straight at the store using the eyes of the absolute being.
At that moment, I saw citizens shopping there.
“Hey. How much do I have to save up?”
“This bow costs 150,000 won, and the money we’ve saved today is about 10,000 won, so it shouldn’t take about two weeks.”
“Hey! You idiot. Don’t you think about buying water and ramen for two weeks?”
“Oh, yes. If you’re so smart, you should calculate it yourself.”
Most of what citizens actually buy are groceries such as water, ramen, and cola.
However, some people were fired up with the will to hunt by looking at the bow or spear.
‘I never thought the atmosphere would change this much just by handing out the settlement money.’
Is it because we are accustomed to capitalism?
As private property was created, citizens began to voluntarily hunt goblins, and now, after a week, it is difficult to find goblins near the apartments.
Now, citizens had to go outside their apartment complexes to hunt goblins.
‘Leveling up is also smooth.’
As the level of the declaration of the corner of the house increases to 11, all parts of the underground parking lot are completely territorialized.
However, in the process, the goblins in this area had dried up to the point where less than ten goblins died.
Now, it’s safe to say that there are no goblins inside the first apartment complex.
‘The number of citizens joining has also increased significantly.’
Current population (789/11,000 people)
+100% additional experience
Additional settlement amount +100%
As the goblins disappeared due to the citizens’ activities, many citizens who had been hiding in their homes joined in.
The number of citizens was rapidly increasing as they accepted the promise of providing electricity, water, and gas to their homes if they accepted 10 survivors, which was initially put forth as a policy.
‘It will probably continue to increase exponentially in the future.’
The only good thing was that when you reached level 10, the population limit increased to 10,000.
Thanks to that, it was quite acceptable for a while.
‘At least all the survivors within this apartment complex can be accepted.’
What was unfortunate was that none of the newly joined survivors had awakening abilities.
It was surprising that among the hundreds of new citizens, not a single one was awakened.
That must mean that the awakened ones are precious.
‘It would be better to focus on the awakened ones for future registration.’
The case of Hadonggun’s party could be said to be a special case.
The fact that among the many survivors in this apartment complex, he was the only one who came out and hunted goblins.
The fact that he was an early member who joined at a time when there was no data yet.
At first, it was advantageous to increase the number of followers as quickly as possible.
It was a case where all party members were accepted as vassals due to a combination of various circumstances.
‘It’s not really urgent anymore.’
There are not many slots left for new registration.
Unlike ordinary citizens, the Kim Min-ho team and Baek Seung-yeop team, who actively hunt, had no intention of selecting a vassal.
This was because I felt through this opportunity that there was a clear difference between having the ability to awaken and not having it.
[You have hunted an Orc (Lv. 18).]
[Gain experience points.]
[1,243,817 won was deposited into the wallet of the absolute owner of the house.]
‘It’s starting again.’
He stopped observing the citizens’ movements and turned his gaze to the Ha Dong-geon party.
The first thing I saw was a bear running inside the subway station.
Even though it was a dark subway station, the bright light coming from the bear’s body made it possible to see clearly in all directions.
The bear ran straight into a group of orcs and bit the collar off one of them.
“Kuaeaaak!”
An orc fell to the ground with a sound like a pig being slaughtered.
The fate of other orcs was similar.
The guys had to give up their lives without even being able to properly swing their glaives once.
Kwajik!
The bear’s eyes, which had instantly killed seven orcs, were emitting an intense red light.
“Ugh, ugh.”
The bear, who had been very excited, took a deep breath and gradually shrank in size until it took the shape of a human.
“Sister Unju!”
Kim Da-jeong, who had come running from behind, spoke to Oh Eun-ju in a friendly manner.
“Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?”
“I’m fine. Even if I get hurt a little, it doesn’t matter.”
Kim Ga-young, who followed behind, stuck out her tongue and said.
“You’re amazing, Sister. It’s never our turn to step forward.”
“I’m sorry for monopolizing it all by myself. I have my own circumstances.”
“Huh? Why are you sorry, Sister? Thanks to you, we are comfortable, safe, and have a great time.”
Then, Owen Ju only smiled without answering and gave an incomprehensible smile.
The reason Owen Ju became so obsessed with hunting monsters to the point of going to such extremes was because of me.
He said that a certain amount of energy was needed for resurrection, and that’s why he was so active in gathering it.
Thanks to this, the number of orcs that had been swarming inside the Jeonpo Station was greatly reduced by Owen Ju’s hands.
My current holding amount is a whopping 3.1 billion.
In fact, if the circumstances were right, compensation could have been given to Owen Ju right away.
‘It was the right decision to bring Oh Eun-joo and Kim Da-jeong together.’
The chemistry between Oh Eun-joo and Kim Da-jung was amazing.
It seemed like we had become very close while living together, so maybe that’s why we got along so well.
The presence of Oh Eun-joo, who ran wild with Kim Da-jeong’s blessing, was truly intense.
‘amazing.’
Even the muscular orcs became helpless lambs in front of Owen.
‘Well, that’s expected considering the specs.’
『Name: Owen Ju (Lv. 40) [+]
Title: [Ninth Bell] [Knight] [Warrior]
Trust: 66 Loyalty: 66
Awakening Abilities: Werebear, Primal Vitality, Berserk
Experience distribution rate: 200%
★Quest Granting』
{warrior}
Melee attacks are 50% more powerful.
Primal Vitality (A Grade)
As the wound increases, the regenerative power increases dramatically.
Berserk (S-Rank)
When you see blood, your eyes turn red and your physical abilities increase by 300%.
From the start, there are a whopping 40 levels.
In addition, the newly acquired titles and awakened abilities that came with becoming a vassal were all creating a fraudulent synergy.
If you go berserk while in a state of human transformation, you will gain physical abilities several times stronger, and if you add Kim Da-jeong’s blessing to that, a monster will be born in an instant.
That was the reason why a group of orcs of only about level 18 could be killed like trampling on bugs.
That was when.
“Ku …
A loud shout was heard from the subway entrance.
‘That’s···?’
It was a monster with a body that was more aggressive than that of a normal orc, and it held a spear that resembled a crescent sword with a wider blade than a normal glaive.
I could tell at a glance that he was the leader of the orcs.
The momentum of the orc warriors who returned with him was also impressive.
There was anger and a fierce murderous look in their eyes.
“Kururur-”
The moment the leader of the orcs was about to punish the invaders with a murderous attitude.
“Profit?”
Owenju, whose whole body was glowing, charged towards the orc.
The orc leader frowned and raised his weapon at the appearance of a slender woman without any weapons.
however.
Woodduck-
“!!”
The man, startled by the sudden increase in size and ferocious aura, took a step back.
The next moment.
Crunch!
Owen’s arm, which had attacked by surprise, dug deep into the orc’s chest.
[You have hunted the Orc Chieftain (Lv. 28).]
[Gain experience points.]
[73,263,099 won was deposited into the wallet of the absolute owner of the house.]
Immediately after that.
[Citizen Owen Ju defeated the leader of ‘Jeonpo Station’.]
[Condition met.]
[‘Outpost’ added to the buildable items.]
