Episode 77 How a deceased person defends (2)
Jinhyeok, who gave me simple precautions, glanced into the air.
Now it’s time to show up soon…
the moment I thought so.
Tring!
[The ‘solar energy’ for the first wave is settled.]
It also appeared just in time.
Jinhyuk smiled with satisfaction.
[You have acquired a total of 1500 ‘Solar Energy’.]
The power of the sun obtained by killing zombies.
Using this, it was possible to grow more diverse and powerful defensive plants.
‘Anyway, I can’t go all the way with only projectile plants.’
The projectile plants that blocked the first wave were powerful, but there was a delay, so it was not enough to prevent a large-scale invasion.
As the wave repeats, zombies with significantly stronger bodies and even special zombies falling from the sky appear.
Of course, the plants also have to diversify accordingly.
Walking a tightrope between zombies and plants was the key to attacking this floor.
[You acquired the title of ‘Botanist’ because you acquired an amazing amount of energy.]
[Botanist]
Difficulty to obtain: 4th floor only SS
Description: The performance of all plant defense towers increases by 10%. It is commonly said that plants have no intelligence and no emotions, but that is incorrect. Plants will sympathize with and respond to the botanist’s mind and annihilate his enemies.
The solar energy gained from the first wave is usually only 300.
This is due to the nature of the plant’s flowering speed and difficult to grow.
That’s why most players didn’t even look at plants that boasted extreme difficulty.
However, because Jinhyeok chose the wide base of Sangam Stadium and dealt with a huge number of zombies, he was able to secure five times as much solar energy.
When this happens, the story is completely different.
[Meat Plant / Destruction / Solar Energy Required: 300]
[Ice Plant / Ice-bound / Solar Energy Required: 350]
[Rock Plant / Defensive / Solar Energy Required: 250]
[Runaway Plant / Wide Range / Solar Energy Required: 350] : 600]
There are a total of four types of plants that can be selected for the 2nd wave.
Of course, you’ve already decided where to place which plants.
“I’ll plant one meat plant on the east and south sides, and place an ice plant in the center. One rock plant in the west is enough.”
Lastly, I received the runaway plant seeds separately and put them in my pocket.
‘good. Then next…’
Jinhyeok also purchased additional necessary items from the coin exchange.
’10 kg of cow dung in the dry plateau’ ‘5 bags of the last fallen leaves’ ‘100 Pentelas dung beetles’ ‘100 gray earthworms’.
These are all ingredients for making fertilizer.
It’s obvious, but not all fertilizers are the same.
Finding the optimal combination among the infinite combinations was a privilege that only the deceased could do.
[The cotyledons of the plants tremble.]
[He tastes the sweetness he has tasted for the first time in his life.]
It is probably because of the nature of a botanist that you can hear the heart of a plant.
“Yes, yes. Eat a lot and grow up.”
Jinhyuk murmured as he sprinkled plenty of fertilizer.
On the other hand, the faces of the rest of the people watching Jinhyeok giggled darker than ever.
“sister. Do you think your brother is crazy?”
Taemin Lee swallowed dry saliva.
“I am watching too. How long does it have to be stuck in the tower to become like that?”
“I am scared too. Jinhyeok, doesn’t it seem like you can communicate with plants? Could it be my mistake? Please tell me it’s an illusion.”
Yoo Yeon-hwa and Teresa also shook their heads as if denying reality.
“If it’s that guy, it might really be possible. It’s just… he’s an unpredictable bastard.”
Even Chun Yu-seong frowned in fear.
I don’t know if I know how everyone feels.
“Whoop whoop. Anastasia. Yes. Yes, chew it thoroughly and eat it. Cristina.”
Jinhyeok stroked the plants as if they were lovely.
***
About 5 minutes later, Jinhyeok, who left the base to the four people, came out of the stadium.
“Take the food first. I have to rob all the convenience stores in every alley. Understand? Food and water are our top priority.”
“We take on medicines and necessities. It will become more and more difficult to come out, so you need to secure as many as possible in the beginning.”
“If possible, you should avoid fighting with other guilds, but if you don’t want to, throw them all away.”
The streets were crowded with quite a few players.
There is still time until the next wave, so we are preparing for the next wave by farming in the streets.
‘Tsk tsk. It shouldn’t be the time to prepare for something like that…’
Jinhyeok leisurely crossed the gap and clicked his tongue.
Do you think it makes sense to prepare for a long-term battle when you came from the beginning unprepared?
There must be a much higher chance of the base being captured before reaching the second half?
Rather, pouring out all the coins they had and strengthening their defense towers was the way to last longer, even if it was just one wave.
‘Well, those who knew that wouldn’t have been so embarrassed on the 3rd floor in the first place.’
For most players, there is too little information about the tower.
It’s almost like meeting each other for the first time.
So I have no choice but to do something stupid like this.
‘I keep forgetting that I shouldn’t judge by my standards.’
Jinhyeok let out a laugh.
While looking around, I arrived in front of the building right next to the mart.
Unlike the Mart, which was guarded by Murim and the Triads, no one made this a base.
The building was deserted because there was no particular advantage for defense, and it was not a place where supplies were abundant.
Jinhyuk walked into it.
[You have entered the base ‘Geek’s Antique Storage Place’.]
There were rows of iron armor and pottery from the Middle Ages.
Most of the showcases were in a state of being smashed. The floor is full of dust because no one has been in and out for a long time.
A place where destroyed modern times and lost history overlap.
‘It’s been a while.’
Almost 8 years ago?
This is a place I found by chance while wandering around trying to test how long I could run away from tens of thousands of zombies.
Jinhyeok looked at the dozens of paintings hanging on the wall.
Faded landscapes decorating a corner of the art gallery.
Losing even his weapon, he was driven to a dead end and right before he died, he reached out with the thought of tearing open a picture frame and breaking a zombie earthenware pot.
Just like that time, Jinhyeok stretched out his hand toward the frame.
OK.
Woo woo woo!
The hand passed through the picture.
The seemingly perfect wall suddenly turned into a passage leading to the mart next door.
‘I knew it would be like this.’
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
some kind of bug.
Bugs that were not fixed in the game were also reproduced in real life.
Jinhyeok quickly moved over to the other side.
‘No one stands guard.’
As expected.
Zombies and intruders will all come to the entrance, so of course we have no choice but to focus all our energy on the entrance.
You couldn’t even imagine in your dreams that there was a hidden passage behind this.
Jinhyeok looked at the food and supplies piled up like a mountain.
This amount was enough to sustain at least a few hundred people for two to three weeks.
This is why the mart is good.
“Thanks to you, our cutie will be able to eat very well.”
The last plant you brought without planting at the base.
[Runaway Plant]
It had the downside of requiring a huge amount of energy, but isn’t there already enough food to overflow and surplus here?
If it wasn’t mine anyway, there was no reason to regret it at all.
[The runaway plant licks its lips.]
In the depths of the food warehouse no one cared about.
Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!
The reddish plant began to grow in size at a rapid pace.
***
“Wow! Damn it. I will definitely chew it up and swallow it. I will never let that child live!”
Zhuge Chun let out a curse mixed with anger.
His face, which was still stained blue, looked quite painful.
Wow!
The bottle of mineral water was torn to shreds and the water splattered in all directions.
“I also think Chen is right. No matter how much you want to go to the top of the tower, you don’t have to have a guy who is difficult to manage, right?”
Dang Soha also agreed with Zhuge Chun’s words.
“…”
Hwangbogunak kept his mouth shut.
Then, he asked Namgung-hyun, who was next to him, indirectly.
“Hyunah. Do you think so too?”
“I… I am.”
Namgoonghyun was speechless.
Then Hwangbogunak’s eyebrows curled in a reversed shape.
“What? Could it be that you were scared?”
“You said I was scared?”
“okay. How is it different from a wild seungnyang who was completely frightened by its tail?”
Hwangbogunak deliberately spoke a mixture of provocation and stimulation.
I could have overcome my fear if I had been angry.
However, Namgoonghyeon did not even respond to those words.
It is completely frozen.
Because of the character Kang Jin-hyeok.
‘Is that about it?’
A wall that can only be felt by us who fought against it, not by a third party watching.
Maybe they didn’t know that they were trying to attract players they couldn’t handle.
“Everyone…”
It was just then that Hwangbogunak opened his mouth.
Aaaaaang!
Suddenly, the entire mart shook with a tremendous roar.
“Whoaaaagh!”
“Quaaaaagh!”
“People… save people!”
At the same time, terrible screams erupted here and there.
“What’s going on!”
Hwangbogunak kicked the door with his sword drawn.
There must be time left until the second wave.
Therefore, the current shock is not because of zombies.
In addition, there was no crazy person who dared to attack this place in the yard where even the highlight video was released.
Everyone must have clearly seen where the strongest base is on the 4th floor.
no.
There was only one.
A guy whose liver just jumped out of the boat enough to do such a thing.
“No way…”
Dang So-ha’s forehead crumpled.
“Tea… An oversized plant appeared in the shed!”
“All the players are being eaten! Ugh… I can’t do that with us. No way!”
Undoubtedly.
It’s him.
“Damn it! My stronghold!”
Hwangbogunak shouted with a desperate face.
It’s not long before the second wave arrives.
If they lost their base now, they had to prepare for the worst situation.
Losing this place must be prevented somehow.
But it was already too late.
Cuckoo Cuckoo!
The ceiling collapsed and the pillars were smashed.
The whole mart started to collapse.
and between them.
“Ugh. I brought some housewarming presents, but our cherries are so good at eating. I am really sorry.”
Jinhyeok was scratching his head with an innocent smile.
