Chapter 57 – Hug Me (1).

Ashes are scattered.
It is an ambiguous garden to even call it a garrison.

“Ehehehehe. Powder scatters.”

Jin Yu-han, who had become an idiot, was talking nonsense while drooling.
I used the ‘superlative recovery potion’, but there was no sign of improvement.
No matter how much the recovery potion is, it doesn’t seem to be able to restore the damaged brain.

“Let’s sort it out. We have to prepare for the next wave.”

I clapped my hands two or three times to draw people’s attention.
The 10th floor dungeon starts now.
Even if the garrison was destroyed, it was impossible to stop raiding the dungeon.

The hunters who were only looking at me move one by one and start to organize the messy garrison.
We walked through tents with only the skeleton remaining and inspected fences for maintenance.

The members of the training team 4 were also mixed in the gap and helped out with one hand.
I thought they would be hostile toward us, but the atmosphere was more relaxed than I thought.
Although I am full of worries about what to do.

Training team 1 glared at me and showed hostility.
Looking at the blatant gaze, I feel like I’m going to buy it right once.

A monster wave that comes every 6 hours.
Measures must be put in place to prevent it.
I called each team leader.

Since Jin Yu-han’s place in Team 1 was taken away through a coup, it’s right for me to take on that role.
I want you to call me the temporary raid leader.

Each team leader gathered in front of me.
Ten people, including me, and one training team attended without missing out.

“I think what it would be like to collect the points into one.”

Currently, the ‘Milky Way’ guild has set up a plan to block the uninhabited island by dividing it into ten points.
It is correct to see it as a standard strategy rather than a plan.
A basic strategy feeling widely known to D-class hunters.

You don’t necessarily have to follow it.
If there is a better way, follow the new plan.

The reason hunters prefer the existing strategy without thinking of a new plan is simple.
Because there is no more effective strategy than that.
From Hunter’s point of view, there was no need to create and carry negative variables.

‘But not me.’

It can bring about positive change, not negative variables.
Right through the 「Teaching Assistant app」.

People live inside 「Teaching Assistant App」.
I want to believe that.
Because the guy’s eyes are considerable.

The 「Teaching Assistant App」 Brings the things I need to the right place.
No oil, no blowtorch, even the ‘wide-area provocation’.
These are the rewards you receive while completing achievements in turn.

When I first received it, I was worried about where to use these.
It was something that seemed out of place and meaningless to anyone.

‘Except the skill.’

But when I went up to the 10th floor, I saw that it was very useful.
I have faith that other items will have a use someday.

“Do you collect the points into one? How?”

Team 3 leader asked me.
The leader of Team 3 was an ordinary woman wearing glasses.
The impression that the eyes are torn and full of dissatisfaction.

“Everyone, you can use your head.”

I wanted to say something like this at least once, probably because I was always ignored by Choi Da-eun.
The corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

“There are two types of monsters on the 10th floor, ‘Blue Lobster’ and ‘Green Crab’. Sometimes ‘Red Octopus’ comes up, but I’m going to exclude that.”

They creep up slowly from the shore when it’s time for a monster wave.
For 30 minutes, a huge population rushed towards the human hunters.

“What was the reason the hunters divided the 10th floor into 10 areas in the first place? Each district has its own topographical features. We divide it based on that.”

During the first wave, Team 1 blocked the west gorge.
Under the canyon, they hunted monsters like Spartan warriors.

Other areas are similar.
There are only slight differences in difficulty, but there are some terrains that are easy to defend.
Excluding North, which was blocked by Team 4.
From the open sandy beach to the garrison there, it is no different than a runway.

“The garrison is set as a base camp and maintenance is repeated here to block monster waves. But think carefully.”

This is a method I noticed while enjoying a campfire at the garrison.

“Why do we have to divide into ten teams? Wouldn’t it be a lot easier if we gathered them all in one place?”

The hunters who entered the 10th floor stopped thinking for themselves.
The guild informs them, and they are only sticking to mechanical strategies.

Not only the ‘Milky Way’ guild, but also other hunters.
You can clear it with a standard strategy, so just follow that.

It was a detriment to the Korean education system.
The disease of the education system that can’t even take care of creativity!

Because of this, the hunters unconsciously came to think that they had to protect the garrison.
It was no different from a robot that followed the input commands.

“I propose a new method.”

You don’t have to defend your garrison.
There are no monsters to deal with separately.

Hunters’ goal is to endure.
All you have to do is stay alive for 10.

“Everyone gathers at the garrison. You don’t have to divide your team. Throw away each point as well.”
“… Then the monsters come up here. Garrison again….”

At the words of the 3 team leader, the other team leaders look around.
To think that the garrison that was already empty would become a mess again.
Sighs came from everywhere.

“Didn’t you ever think that the garrison area was too wide?”

Open ten tents for ten people.
It’s not just organizing.
In order to respect the privacy of each team, a certain distance must be maintained.
Naturally, the required area doubles.

Leaders are also speechless.
Even just looking around, I could feel that the garrison space was very wide.

“Cut your garrison in half. And put up barriers. It is fortification.”

There is only one way up to the garrison.
A road that people can come and go, a road that is organized similar to a hiking trail.

Does that mean that even the little monsters only go through that path?
Not.
These chicks climb up on their dicks.
Because of this, the orderly path is meaningless.

“Today, I plan to turn the fort into a defense map, a passage for monsters to pass through, and, in a word, this uninhabited island itself.”
“… Are we going to become turrets protecting lives?”

Unexpectedly, the leader of Team 3 was the first to understand my thoughts.
It’s very accurate too.

“You’re right.”
“But isn’t there a problem?”

The leader of Team 3 did not deviate from expectations.
I thought it would be harsh, but it’s very accurate.

In order to realize a strategy close to delusion, one of the most important problems had to be solved.
The leader of Team 3 raised it.

“To build a fortress, you need materials that can withstand attacks from ‘blue lobsters’ or ‘green crabs. What if you gather in one place, but you can’t stand the wave and collapse? That’s it. He says everyone dies.”
“You’re right. So I prepared.”

I took an item out of my pocket.
「Training app」 Mansae, mansae, mansae.

* * *

Park Seon-woo, the leader of Team 4, staged a coup.
I’m not sure if this is right, but the 12th members of the ‘Milky Way’ guild silently watched the scene.
At first, I thought it was ridiculous and stupid, but after hearing it, it seemed like it was right.

The cause was Park Seon-woo.

The strongest hunters must block the most difficult places.
So he took charge of the north himself.

But the monsters were stronger than I thought, so I retreated.
In the process, the garrison was inevitably destroyed.

What did Team 1 do while Park Seon-woo was making sacrifices, not sacrifices?
Team 1, which received the most support from the ‘Milky Way’ guild, hunted at the easiest point.
While the other teams are struggling, I was playing around.

“Ehehehehe.”

Everyone was pretending not to be, but most of the Hunters thought that Jin Yu-han, who had become an asshole, was handsome.

How did you usually show off when you said you were in the D class?
It was really like that and it was annoying.
The ‘Milky Way’ guild would sympathize.

This was the reason Park Seon-woo was able to quickly control the hunters’ public opinion.
There was so much karma accumulated by Jin Yuhan.

‘And he was fucking installed with his father’s back.’

Hunters weaker than themselves were suppressed with their own skills, and hunters stronger than themselves were threatened with their father’s power.
There was no way the trainee members of the ‘Milky Way’ guild looked at Jin Yuhan like that.

‘Fucking bastards, all your eyes….’

Unlike other teams that acknowledged Park Seon-woo, Team 1 was still glaring at him.
I didn’t like the current atmosphere of raising the asshole Park Seon-woo because it was Team 1, which had been doing all kinds of power-ups to hunters of the same level under the protection of Jin Yu-han.

‘If I somehow come back alive…. All of you are finished.’

Jin Kwon-cheol’s son, the eldest son of the association’s general manager, became an idiot in the dungeon.
There was no way Jin Kwon-cheol would go unnoticed.

Park Seon-woo, who ended Jin Yu-han, will receive a terrible punishment.
Since he attacked the team within the ‘Tower’, he will rot in prison for the rest of his life.

Team 1 Hunters are thinking that way.
Reinforcement of the garrison was carried out under the leadership of Park Seon-woo.
Hunters began to move with the grand purpose of fortification.

Trees around them were cut down and carved, and they were planted in the ground.
It was decided to drastically reduce the size of the garrison and only divide it by gender.

They are using all the trees from the garden on the uninhabited island.
Thanks to this, the garrison got a panoramic view.
The horizon is visible from the top of the hill.

“Is it really possible with ‘that item’, Mr. Seonwoo?”

Supporter of Team 4, Lee Eun-seo, approached Park Seon-woo and asked.
Park Seon-woo replied with a confident face.

“Yes, it is possible. Enough.”

Other teams fell for his confident smile.
He also proved his skills, and since there was no other way, he left it to Park Seon-woo.

However, it was not the 4th Team Hunters.
I reached the point where I was able to listen to what Park Seon-woo said.

‘Has it happened once or twice that I fell down while standing out confidently?’

Lee Eun-seo stared at Park Seon-woo’s back.
Shoulders swaying, arms busy pointing.

“Not there! You have to do it right!”

Seeing Park Seon-woo interfering here and there and shouting loudly made me rather nervous.
With less than 4 hours left until the next wave, what will happen….

‘Chief, I miss you.’

He is a person who is hard to get close to because of his fiery personality like a tiger, but I missed Choi Da-eun today.
The illusion that Choi Da-eun will appear right now.
Anytime is fine, so I hope you come quickly and stop Park Seon-woo.

Unfortunately, Choi Da-eun was outside the ‘top’.
He was stomping his feet while waiting for the results.

“Hey, hey! Hey!”

The leash—Choi Da-eun—was released, and Park Seon-woo was close to a mad dog that no one could stop.
I don’t know what it was, but he was just screaming and going crazy.

“Ehehehehe. Where am I, who am I?”
“Keeeee Not there!”

Jin Yu-han, who became an idiot due to a brain problem, and Park Seon-woo, who was an idiot from the beginning.
It was difficult to determine who was more normal or superior.

Nonetheless, things went smoothly.
Park Seon-woo completed the garrison with the materials he had obtained.

“Good. Very good. One hour ahead! Let’s finish quickly!”

Park Seon-woo gave the last command.
He grabbed a shovel, jammed between the men, and began to dig up the soil.

A large arc was dug in front of the wooden barrier made by overlapping several layers.
Because they were full of strength and stamina, the construction speed was very fast.

“Someone would think that an excavator would come and dig it out.”

Supporters and ranged dealers admire the stamina of the tanks.
Beads of sweat running down the copper-colored skin, the pulsation of the muscles wriggling wildly.
The eyes of the female hunters pass through the male tankers.

An hour, not too long, passed.
The second monster wave is coming.

“Distance dealers and supporters! All over the barrier! The rest of the tanks hold out outside the barrier! If you can’t stand it, apply this!”

Park Seon-woo handed out ‘that item’.
The tanks received the yellow potion and checked their equipment.

‘Blue Lobster’ and ‘Green Crab’ come from afar.
5 minutes.
It took 5 minutes for the nearest northern monsters to come up to the garrison.

As soon as the monster put its foreleg on the top of the hill, Seonwoo Park used the ‘wide area provocation’.

“Kieh!”

Then he set himself on fire and rushed at them.
Leading by example, he was truly a crazy bastard.
