Chapter 65 – 65. Assembling the Labyrinth

“Well, let’s start with choosing a good environment to live in.”

Everyone nodded at Hyuna’s words. That is correct. You must first choose a good environment to live in.

“Then it’s a workshop after all. You can also fix automatons and use them as workers. Since it’s a workshop, wouldn’t it create a livable atmosphere if we just cleaned up the dust?”

“I think so too. Then, set up an exorcist’s workshop for the living space, and since there is an exorcist’s lantern and a hunter’s incense burner… Choose the immortal’s graveyard and the beast’s den?”

“Yes.”

“Inho, then the three will come out mixed?”

“Right. You can catch animals to get meat, and shake off the corpses to get free weapons. Additionally, if you can use automatons as workers… Automatic hunting becomes possible.”

“Wow, automatic hunting..!”

“Hey. “Oppa, I’m already drooling.”

“Hey, Ayun.. Girls don’t do that.. Wipe off the drool.”

“Yes, sister.”

When I heard that I could use an automatic doll as a worker, Ayun said that her mouth was already watering at the thought of making it work.

Actually, I am the same way. The brainchild’s workshop may be an amazing space. If you look at the explanation of the Brainmaster’s Workshop, it is clearly stated that automatons can be repaired and used. In fact, all you can get here may be an automaton.

In any case, if you manage the number of automata that can give orders, you can create a battle doll army to eliminate monsters. From that moment on, we don’t have to clean the labyrinth. We can just leave the monster cleaning to the automaton.

Somehow, there was a reason why the survival rating of the Warlord’s attack and defense increased by 10 levels.

‘You can’t take him out, right..?’

If I could bring the automaton out of the labyrinth and use it, I’d be really tired of standing up… It’s quite a shame that the monsters created within the labyrinth don’t seem to be able to come out.

No, then we can bring out the one we made ourselves, right?

I’ll have to go in later and experiment.

“Next are penalties and amenities.”

“Among the amenities, you can choose the ones you really need and then add a penalty.”

“Okay.. Let’s cut the build..!”

After coordinating our opinions for almost an hour, we were able to create the most reasonable and survival-friendly labyrinth.

[Labyrinth form]

-Enclosed type

[Labyrinth Size]

-Medium

[Labyrinth environment]

-Graveyard of the Immortal

-The Beast’s Den

-The War of the Warlord

Up to this point, everything was agreed upon earlier. It is medium-sized and I chose 3 labyrinth environments, and with just this alone, the required survival level has already risen to 30.

But it doesn’t end here. This is because we chose as many as four more convenience facilities.

[Labyrinth amenities]

-The only safe zone


-Doll workshop ownership

-Window for product trading

-Random vending machine

[The only safe zone: A safe zone is created near the entrance to the labyrinth. Hostile monsters do not spawn in the safe zone, and monsters inside the labyrinth also cannot enter.] [Additional survival rating 15]

First of all, a safe area to be used as an outpost was essential. Because I can’t be killed right from the entrance to the labyrinth. I also didn’t like being attacked while I was sleeping.

Instead, with this alone, the required survival level increased by a whopping 15.

[Doll Workshop Ownership: This can only be selected if you have selected ‘The Brainmaster’s Workshop’ as the labyrinth environment. Ownership of various equipment installed in the brainstormer’s workshop is given. Administrator dolls become non-hostile.] [Additional survival level 5]

Next, ownership of the workshop was obtained. If you have this, you can use the equipment in the Warlord’s workshop without any restrictions. As expected, the survival level increased by 5.

[Goods Trade Window: A small hole is created in the wall near the entrance to the labyrinth. If you insert various objects or materials through the hole, you can obtain trading currency commensurate with their value.] [Additional survival level 15]

[Random vending machine: A vending machine is created near the entrance to the labyrinth. When you insert trading currency, something random is given out.] [Additional survival level 10]

The remaining two required survival levels of 15 and 10, respectively. However, there was a reason why I could not give up.

First of all, the product trading window allowed us to immediately sell the parts of the monsters we hunted without any slaughter or processing and exchange them for old copper coins or silver coins obtained in the labyrinth, and the random vending machine allowed us to extract items by inserting the copper coins or silver coins obtained in that way. We chose it together.

The coins that can be obtained in the labyrinth can be usefully used in the dimensional shop that appears after passing the purple gate, so it was necessary to collect as many coins as possible. Maybe I can purchase skill enhancement tickets again. Also, a vending machine was needed as there could be a jackpot among the random items.

Anyway, by selecting all the amenities, the required survival level reached 75.

In addition, for every 10 people that can be accommodated, the level goes up by 5 more…

[Labyrinth Capacity]

-30 people in total

Including the survivors in the auditorium, there are now 15 people in our group. Since we didn’t know what would happen in the future, we set the capacity to be around 30 people, so we filled in an additional 15 levels, raising the total admission level to 90.

Here, we decided to at least lower the entry level to level 10 or lower. So there were seven penalties that were chosen with difficulty…

[Labyrinth Penalty]

-Create elite monsters

-Creating boss monsters

-Dwelling of cave giants

-Gravekeeper’s Trap

-Disguised Mimic

-Defiled Nail

-Hidden altar

[Generation of elite monsters: Elite monsters that are stronger and more intelligent than regular monsters are born periodically. Elite monsters wander around looking for people.] [Admission level decreased by 15]

[Boss monster creation: Boss monsters that are stronger than elite monsters, have significantly higher intelligence, and have tougher vitality are periodically created. A separate boss room is created.] [Admission rating decreased by 20]

First of all, these two penalties increased the difficulty of conquering the labyrinth, but they were high-risk, high-return penalties that gave you better rewards if you could kill them.

Moreover, the level of decline rating was so high that it could not help but be uneven.

“Just kill them all and that’s it.”

“Right. Even if you can’t kill them, you can’t get over the safe zone..”

“Yes, honestly, this is a free penalty.”

“That’s right, that’s right..”

Hyuna and Saeyeon try to reassure each other. Next to him, Ayun was fiddling with an ax and boasting that he could kill as many people as he wanted, showing off his confidence.

Yes, this is a time when positive thinking is important. You shouldn’t be scared already.

[Dwelling of troglodytes: Troglodytes with whom you cannot communicate will reside in the labyrinth. They will periodically attempt to plunder and interfere with exploration of the labyrinth.] [Admission level lowered by 10]

A caveman with whom I cannot communicate. I’m not sure what the troglodytes do, but I think they’re probably man-eating barbarians. The good news is that these cubs do not eat cannibalism.

“More than anything, we can communicate with these bastards.”

“That’s right. Because there is that dismal stutter.”

“Ah, Ayun.. It’s rude to stutter in a dismal way towards someone who is supposed to be your colleague..”

Saeyeon’s sister stops Ayun.

Yes, as Ayun said, we have a sullen stutterer, Lee Hee-seon.

The skill she has is her communication. This is a skill that allows you to communicate with someone you cannot communicate with. If you have that skill, you will be able to communicate with cavemen.

Although there is a penalty of not being able to kill the person you’re talking to for 10 days, it doesn’t matter because if you make a mistake, you can just kill them all.

“If you can try to talk to the cave giants and make them a friendly force by making a deal with them, this isn’t actually a penalty… “What was it?”

“Advantage?”

“Okay. That’s it.”

Of course, this is only if the conversation goes well, but maybe we can make the hostile forces neutral.

[Gravekeeper’s Trap: This can only be selected if there is an immortal graveyard in the labyrinth environment. Several threatening traps and protective golems are installed in the Tomb of the Undead.] [Admission level decreased by 15]

This would make the graveyard area even more dangerous, but it lowered the entry level by 15, so I had no choice but to choose. Moreover, we have a grave robber’s pickaxe.

“This pickaxe… Will it really work on golems?”

“If you judge the golem based on the terrain… It would work, right? A golem is not a living creature.”

“Right. That’s right. So, it only has infinite durability for golems?”

“You can say so.”

Quite good. Since it is treated as a blunt weapon, Ayun may be able to simply destroy the golem pot if she swings the pickaxe with a crushing blow. A pickaxe that has infinite durability and cannot be broken even by crushing blows…

“If you look closely, the immortals are already old bastards, so if you kill them with a pickaxe, their durability will not decrease.”

“Wow! So even if I keep beating the undead with crushing blows, the pickaxe won’t be damaged?”

“That’s right. I said that durability only increases quickly when attacking living creatures. So maybe that’s true? No?”

“Hey. Honestly, this is a free penalty as long as you avoid the traps well!”

“That’s right, that’s right. Absolutely amazing.”

“No, Hyun-ah. “Aren’t you just adding Chuimsae since a while ago?”

“Oh, I got caught. Hehe..”

Hyuna can’t sleep so she can’t seem to get her head to work, so she’s just cheering. She, Saeyeon’s older sister, was originally smart, and Ah Yoon is also smart, perhaps because she graduated from a prestigious university. Even though she dropped out..

Well, Hyuna is cute when she sleeps. And she has the biggest breasts out of the three. Yeah, that’s enough. Here, it would be shameless for her to ask for something more.

[Disguised Mimic: Mimics disguised as treasure chests are hidden throughout the labyrinth. If you open the box without thinking, the risk of dying increases.] [Admission level decreased by 5]

This would have been quite threatening if we had chosen the hidden treasure chest as a convenience, but since we did not choose it, we can just assume that all treasure chests generated in the labyrinth are mimics.

Therefore, if you found something similar to a treasure chest, you could destroy it without mercy. Because they’re all mimics.

[Desecrated Nail: Creates a deep tainted pond somewhere in the labyrinth. The depth of the pond is unpredictable, and sometimes hostile aquatic creatures crawl up.] [Admission rating decreased by 5]

“This is honestly a fucking advantage.”

“Right. You will also be able to fish with a golden fishing rod..”

“Since there is a purification pump, it can be used as drinking water, right?”

“They say aquatic creatures crawl up…”

“If you kill me, that’s enough.”

“That’s right. Just kill it.”

This also seemed to be more of a help than a complete penalty. It is said that underwater creatures sometimes come up, and if you understand the cycle well, you can destroy the heads and feet that come up.

If that doesn’t work, just run away to a safe area.

[Hidden Altar: Periodically, a hidden altar is created in one of three locations in the labyrinth. Three heretics guarding the altar are created together, and if the altar is not destroyed before the offering ritual ends, a demon will be summoned.] [Admission rating decreased by 15]

“Honestly, I’m a bit worried about this.”

“I know. Should I just take it out?”

“Excluding this, what is the survival level?”

“Let me see.. I’m 20.”

“Uh.. That’s a bit..”

“It would be funny if we took this out and added zero gravity, right?”

“It will be really funny..”

If you put it in, everyone will be able to move in with a survival rating of 5, but if you take it out, it will be level 20 and you will not be able to move in.

“Once you have a rough idea of ​​where they come from, you can just grab a pickaxe and strike them down.”

“That’s also true.”

“It’s about three heretics.. I might be able to catch them soon..”

“Okay, so how do you make it like this?”

“Okay!”

“Whew. “I barely finished it.”

“That’s right.”

I made the labyrinth with this. As soon as I entered all the settings, the complete infinite labyrinth was in my hands.

[Labyrinth Type: Infinite Labyrinth]

[Difficulty: Intermediate to High]

[Labyrinth Name: Mixed Underground Base]

[Entry conditions: Survival level 5 or higher]

[Imposition target: (none)]

[Goal achievement reward: (none)]

[Capacity: 0/30]

With this, we completed the labyrinth for our base.

Now all you have to do is bring in the furniture and move in.
