Would it be possible to build a tower with soil?

‘If you try, you’ll be able to make it. Whether it’s a tower or a castle, it’s all man-made anyways, so why would I be able to do it.”

Jung Da-woon thought it was easy to do.

He has been rolling around with the soil every day, and he was confident that he could make something out of it.

This was also due to his main skill, ‘Dirt Lump’.

Dirt Lump (Level 8)

– You are able to quickly shape the soil. The higher the level, the larger and tighter it becomes.

Bigger and harder!

Due to the nature of the skill, stones cannot be lumped together, but on the contrary, it was possible to make the soil solid and hard like stones.

At the current level, the hardness of the mud brick that Jung Da-woon could produce was as good as a soft stone.

It was hard enough to build a tower with.

If there was a problem, it would be that there was no cement to act as an adhesive.

If you pile bricks without an adhesive, there was a risk that one day the tower that he painstakingly build would collapse like a Jenga board game.

But Jung Da-woon already had some know-hows due to him constantly decorating the hideout.….

It’s wasn’t staking, but lumping instead.

He could use the “Dirt Lump” skill to combine several mud bricks into one.

It would be like a tower-shaped dirt ball, and it would not collapse easily.

“But if I think about safety, I’ll have to make it a little wider, right? If I stack it thin and long, it could fall to the side.”

Jung Da-woon first drew a sketch on the floor with a wooden stick.

“Pokyuuu?”

And a ground squirrel was looking at what he was doing from behind.

“Pokyuu, you’re on lookout duty. Let me know when the monster comes.”

“Kyuuuut.”

At its owner’s words, Pokyuu turned her head with a cautious look and watched the surrounding area.

“Is it too small?”

A large square was drawn with Exit 1 as the center.

Jung Da-woon looked at it and imagined for a moment what would be made in his head, and shook his head soon.

“No, if I’m going to make it anyways, let’s make it bigger.”

The square was redrawn larger.

If he made it clumsily and it fell apart, it wouldn’t just end at an injury.

“……Well. Did I draw it too big? But come on, the bigger, the stronger and the better.”

His hand trembled and he immediately opened the inventory window.

Then he grabbed the “Mud Brick” (99) and swung his hand forward.

Chuck chuck chuck chuck chuck!

A row of mud bricks was filled precisely on top of the sketch in accordance with his hand gesture.

“There’s worth in practicing it.”

Jung Da-woon continued to build the tower with a satisfied smile.

Chuck chuck chuck chuck!

Chuck chuck chuck chuck chuckkk!

The rectangle sketch began to fill up one brick at a time.

The scale was so large that in order to build the high wall, he had to climb on the wall and build the next floor.

The observatory he was trying to build was actually closer to a rectangular dirt mountain than a tower.

The center was drilled so a suitable space could be created, and the stairway was built like an apartment exit.

Following the stairway all the way down to the ground, a bathhouse, a waterway, and a hideout could be seen.

“This is unexpectedly fun huh?”

Before he knew it, Jung Da-woon put all his effort into every detail of the tower.

It looked good because it looked like a brick wall when it was built in a zigzag.

As he climbed up little by little, the floor was already far below.

“Mamamia……This is scary.”

It is said that the height at which a person would feel the most fear was 11 meters. It is around the height of looking down from the fifth floor of an apartment building.

Jung Da-woon was already well above that height.

‘Whoa, if you fall down from here, you’ll croak straight away.’

He didn’t have acrophobia, but just looking under his own feet made him dizzy.

But it also had its own beauty.

It was his first time looking down at the dungeon from such a high place.

“Shall we eat now then?”

“Pokyuuuuuu!”

Pokyuu jumped excitedly as if it was waiting for him to say those words.

It was getting dark before he knew it.

The sky of the Dungeon, which was turning red in the distance, was exceedingly beautiful.

* * *

Meanwhile, under the red sky, hell was unfolding.

“Kyaooooo!”

“Keuuuackkkk!”

Blood spattered with a scream.

For the powerless and weak, the dungeon was a cruel place.

“Kruuunggg!”

The fierce shadows devoured the whole head that was stained with fear.

The hungry monster wolves were attacking the people around after seeing the blood.

“Awooooooo!”

“Keukkk, it’s doing it again!”

“Stop him from howling!”

Watching the wolf calling in its brethren again, someone screamed in horror.

[Muahaha. The reason these puppies are so scary is because they will keep calling their friends if they feel like they’re going to lose! Loyalty! It’s Loyalty!]

“Could you please shut the hell up!”

Kabaaaam!

[Hmm?]

The sudden powerful explosion next to it forced the abbit to stop snarling.

It was muscular giant wielding a giant axe.

The Rabbit gazed at him with slanted eyes when it found the blue light on his axe.

[Ohhhh? You were hiding your secret skill?]

Skill ‘Wind Blade’.

It was a skill to cut down enemies with a sharp wind blade.

The stronger or the heavier the weapon, the higher the damage, the problem was that the attack couldn’t distinguish between friend or foe.

“Wind Blade!”

Kabaam!

“Kurrghhhhh!”

“Ackkkk!”

“Why are we-……!?”

The stormy wind blade dragged along dozens of wolves and dozens of other participants fighting with them.

But the man didn’t care about it and repeated his skill until all the wolves fell.

Looking at the blood-stained falling people, the Rabbit raised its thumbs in both hands toward the cold-blooded man.

[Ohhhh! What a cold man! He’s not just a bad guy, he’s a fucking bastard! The boldness of sacrificing cattle for the greater good! The aesthetics of betrayal!]

“Shu-, shut the fuck up! It’s better than being killed altogether!”

The man justified his actions hurriedly.

After hearing what the Rabbit said, the other participants began to look at the cold-blooded man with cold eyes.

The rabbit giggled even more at that sight.

[Oh my, what to do! The seed of betrayal has sprouted! Mister, you need to be careful of the roads at night!]

“Keuuukk.”

The man, who was gnashing his teeth at the Rabbit, glared at the others.

“What are you looking at, you bastards! Don’t blank out and just get going already! Get out of here before more wolves come!”

“Ahhh, where should I go…….”

Someone asked with an intimidated voice.

“Do you have to ask me about every single thing! Of course to where the wolves wouldn’t show up…… Holy shit. What the hell is that?”

There was only one direction in which none of the wolves had ever appeared throughout the whole day.

But there was something strange happening there that had never happened before.

“There……Was there something like that originally?”

There stood a foreign pillar of dirt in the forest that was far away.

It was a very suspicious building with an artificial square shape that looked like as if it was measured with a ruler.

[That, don’t tell me that’s……?]

The Rabbit doubted its eyes.

A building that the Rabbit didn’t know in the Dungeon? And of all directions where that building could have been?

There was only one person that came to mind.

“What the hell is that human trying to do again?”

Jung Da-woon had already caught all the forest wolves over there, making the game much less difficult.

If it wasn’t for that, all the participants would have been wiped out here.

“Helper! What’s that?!”

[Huh? Yes?]

The Rabbit was struck with fear when people asked.

What should it say? The savior of their lives? Maybe Da-woon made that big-scale pillar to ask for help?

But then, someone screamed with a look as if he had realized the whole truth.

“Holy! Perhaps there’s a wolf boss living there? Otherwise, why would there be such a suspicious pillar!”

Strange opinions began to form among the participants.

“I, I see! Is the reason why not a single wolf showed up in that direction a trick trying to lure us?”

“Hmph. You must have thought we’d be fooled naively!”

[……ha, ha ha ha. Oh my, these? I guess I got caught? There are many wise people within the participants this time.]

The Rabbit decided to first play along with the participants’ opinion.

The awkward way of speaking, which seemed like it was reading a textbook, made people more convinced and infuriated.

“How stupid do you think we are? All right, everybody, get your stuff! We’re going in the opposite direction from there!”

“Let’s do that!”

[…….]

These idiots. There was a really dangerous monster waiting for them in that direction.

……Was what the Rabbit wanted to say, but it just waved at them with a warm expression.

Then, as soon as their figures disappeared from view, the Rabbit glared its eyes and looked back.

[Oii, you error seed!]

* * *

“Hey, you’re here?”

[What the hell are you making?]

“Well. A roof?”

Jung Da-woon was weaving branches into a roof shape.

“I’m afraid the floor will be slippery if it rains.”

[I didn’t ask you about that?!]

“Hold on. I’m almost done making it. If I do well, I think I’ll be done by the end of today.”

Jung Da-woon, who sweated under the red sunset, felt rewarded while working.

The construction that took all day was almost done.

[Ahhhh, I’m screwed. My pure and beautiful dungeon has impurities. It became dirty. What’s this strange tower!]

The Rabbit was in tears when it saw the tower he had taken all day to complete.

Either way, Jung Da-woon was finishing the roof and started making the most important part of the observatory.

Scrunch scrunch. Shluck shluck.

He took out some empty buckets made of bamboo and began to trim them around.

Small holes was drilled into the packed bottom one by one, and two buckets were placed side by side and wood pieces, soil and the tendons of the one-horned boar were used to secure them tightly.

And he took it to the edge of the wall and stuck it with a Y-shaped branch?

“Ta-da. Telescope completed! As expected, an observatory should have this!”

[What good would that be? You don’t even have lenses anyway.]

“It’s just a matter of the feeling that it gives. And I think I’ve heard someone say that by using this to see, it will be more focused than just looking at it with the naked eye.”

[Don’t be ridiculous.]

Jung Da-woon did not care about the Rabbit’s remarks, but instead peeked through the fake telescope and looked around outside with it.

“Wow, I can see pretty well. I can see stuffs far away!”

[Right. It’s night time right now though?]

“……Heh.”

Everyone would have failures sometimes.

The surroundings had become dark while he was making the roof.

Jung Da-woon took out four torches and put them on every corner of the observatory.

“It would be a good landmark for those lost in the woods at night! Maybe they’ll see this and they’ll come over here.”

Jung Da-woon spoke triumphantly, but there was something he did not know.

The torch, which suddenly appeared in the middle of the night, looked scary from afar.

* * *

“Holy shit. There’s a sudden light in the sky!”

“I’m glad we didn’t go that way.”

“Just what the hell is there?”

Participants began to actively move further away from Jung Da-woon.

* * *

Jung Da-woon, with a discreet face, held up a black charcoal, and scribbled heavily on the stone plate.

“Jung Da-woon’s Observatory”

“Finally done! Keuuuu. It took a whole day.”

He even made a stone sign to commemorate this.

Jung Da-woon patted his stiff shoulders and appreciated the results he had made.

“I’ve been doing this all day and I’m pretty darn tired. But it’s pretty good, isn’t it.”

[How can you build a building like this in just a day….]

Looking at the observatory, the Rabbit was stunned.

The combination of the “Dirt Lump” skill and the usefulness of the “Inventory” resulted in this ridiculous result.

“Ahhh, I’ll put up a sign.”

Finally, he fastened the stone sign firmly next to the entrance of the observatory.

The finishing touch!

Now, when the day dawns tomorrow, he can then scout the road ahead from the observatory.

But it was then.

Shingggggg.

“Huh?”

[Huh?]

Suddenly light began to burst from the observatory.

Flash!

“Huh?”

[Huhhhhhh?!]

And a new message appeared before the eyes of Jung Da-woon.
