Chapter 32: Dorong Server (3)

Today is the day to play the second day of the Dorong server.

While everyone else is enjoying day three, I am enjoying day two.

“Hello, everyone.”

[Why did you take yesterday off? Why did you take yesterday off? Why did you take yesterday off?]
[Naru, my horns hurt… Naru, my horns hurt… Naru, my horns hurt…]
(TL Note: A meme from her fans, implying they are ‘cuckolds’ or that she’s been with someone else, hence their ‘horns’ growing/hurting.)
[Naru isn’t a baby anymore… Naru isn’t a baby anymore… Naru isn’t a baby anymore…]

My god, the chat is on fire just from a simple greeting.

Still, it’s not like I don’t understand.

Yesterday wasn’t just election day; it was also the day after Christmas.

In this field, where you make money by catering to your dedicated fanbase, it’s something you have to understand.

“Yesterday, I just gathered with my family and had a meal. The things you’re thinking of didn’t happen.”

[This bad girl ㅠㅠ This bad girl ㅠㅠ This bad girl ㅠㅠ]
[I don’t listen to the words of a non-virgin]
[ㅠㅠ]

I knew this would happen, so I brought some evidence.

At their expected reactions, I played a prepared audio file.

[Mom, look at that person who got elected. He looks just like a toad, doesn’t he?]
[Oh my, you’re right.]
[Pfft!]

An audio recording made with prior permission from my oldest sister and my mom.

That short audio clip, containing the voices of three people including myself, will probably prove my innocence.

[I believed in Naru-nim from the beginning]
[Uuuh… my horns have grown back on…]
[🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄]
[‘The Pure Virgin’]

Anyway, they’re all just a bunch of crazies.

It’s not like they’re Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, do they have two personalities?

“Anyway, it’s too late to call it a day 2 speed… but I’ll continue exploring to find the hidden job.”

[Go see the other members already lol]
[You again, hidden job?]
[You have money, so why can’t you use it? ㅠㅠ]

The reaction is definitely not good.

It’s not a strange reaction either, considering the only people I met on the first day I entered the server were Telly-nim and Dorong-nim.

From the perspective of the viewers who were expecting some banter with other people, it was certainly boring.

But right now, the hidden job.

To be precise, if I don’t get the Golden Alchemist job and accumulate a huge amount of funds, I can’t execute the grand plan I have for the later stages.

“Yes, then I’ll head to the Dragon’s Lair.”

So for now, just bear with it and watch.

I’ll repay you with double the dopamine later.

I glanced at the chat window and started moving towards the Dragon’s Lair area.

[Na]
[Rak]
[The kids are looking for you lol]
[Boring]

Public opinion was still not good… but as I said before, just bear with it a little.

I’ll show you something really awesome later.

Rumble rumble

Hearing the sound of boiling lava, it seems I’ve almost arrived.

“I’ve arrived, then I’ll go in through the back door.”

[?]
[This map is indestructible]
[Back?door]

Not just the Dragon’s Lair area, but basically, special areas themselves have an indestructible status.

However, I found a trick.

That trick is none other than the sticky piston.

If you use a sticky piston.

You can create a small opening by simply pulling the blocks, without destroying the map.

Like this.

Clunk-

Just like that, two indestructible stone blocks are easily pulled away.

[What is this lol]
[Ah, so it’s just that it can’t be destroyed lol]
[Kyaa, as expected of Wonderland’s smartest!]

Hehe, as expected, I knew everyone would be surprised.

Even I thought it was a brilliant idea.

<Dragon’s Lair: Treasure Room>

Originally a reward room accessible only after defeating the SS-grade boss monster, the Fire Dragon.

Inside that reward room, a single, very large golden chest was placed.

“I will open it.”

[What a freebie lol]
[This works]
[You’re going to get dragged away by Dorong-haem again lol]

Am I really going to get dragged away again?

I opened the chest, thinking that it might be possible.

Ding ding ding ding-

Perhaps because it’s an SS-grade reward, the items are coming out endlessly.

Oh, I’m so full.

They’re just pouring it on until my stomach bursts?

By monopolizing the reward that should have been eaten by 3-4 people, both my bank account and my inventory have become full.

The hidden job I wanted didn’t come out, but it was still an incredible result in its own way.

Ah right, I need to take the poison mist sprayer too.

Not forgetting, I used a sticky piston at the entrance of the reward room to dig out the poison mist sprayers.

The poison mist sprayers I just dug out will be used well in the chicken farm later.

“Then since I’ve done everything I need to do, I’ll leave.”

The moment I was about to pack the items and leave.

[“He…llo.”]

I was forcibly taken to a space where I felt a sense of déjà vu.

[lol]
[Malicious bug user arrested, for real]
[To the room of truth]

I really didn’t think I would come here.

It seems Dorong-nim doesn’t tolerate my tricks.

[“Do you know why I called you?”]

“Is it because I cheesed the Dragon’s Lair?”

[“You know well.”]

[You’re in big trouble now lol]
[Normalized immediately]
[Where should I send the bail money?]

I don’t know if this is okay.

The nuance of his words feels like a confiscation…?

[“Naru-nim… you know, right?”]

Ugh, as expected, I was right.

Dorong-nim was subtly applying pressure.

As if he would forgive my sins, but I had to give up everything I had gained.

He threw out that kind of silent threat.

“Could you somehow spare just the job change ticket?”

[“You know it, that’s the biggest problem.”]

At that moment, a good idea came to mind.

An idea that would be most ideal if it were just accepted.

“Could you perhaps let me keep the job change ticket in exchange for changing it to ‘Golden Alchemist’?”

They’ll probably wonder what I’m talking about.

At this point, he’s trying to confiscate the job change ticket out of concern that I’ll run wild with a hidden job.

But suddenly, I’m asking him not to confiscate it in exchange for changing to another job.

However, my suggestion was somewhat plausible.

Why? Because the Golden Alchemist only has the ability to process flint into gold ingots.

It’s different from other combat-type hidden jobs filled with violence and chaos.

The reason why operators are reluctant to have hidden jobs unlocked in the early stages of a server opening.

Is because users who obtain combat-type hidden jobs usually become crazy violent rampagers with a high probability.

It would be a bit much if hidden job users were running around causing trouble when the server was being run well.

In that sense, I thought the non-combat hidden job, Golden Alchemist, was a tolerable hidden job.

[“Instead, I’ll only give you one job change ticket. Everything you got here, except for that, will be confiscated.”]

Ehehe, success.

Dorong-nim, not noticing my hidden grand plan, showed his approval.

The Golden Alchemist job and the initial funds.

All the ingredients for the first stage of the grand plan were ready.

[“I’ll send you back.”]

Goodbye, Dorong.

Now, I shall gather all the currency of the Dorong server.

I returned to the original map, letting out a laugh that might have sounded wicked.

[He lost it]
[Why did he have to choose that one lol]
[Fact) A fisherman with a +7 fishing rod makes more money than the hidden job Golden Alchemist]

The reaction isn’t very good.

[Purchase Land]

Click

Because I’m going to use the money duplication bug from now on.

Starting with the cheap land in the remote areas.

Hundreds of building blocks and a material converter.

Using those, I plan to show them a miracle.

[What are you doing?]
[?]
[Why are you making a lump of blocks?]

The reaction is still bad.

And it’s understandable, because the shape of the building currently under construction was some strange rectangular lump of blocks.

However, that lump of blocks is the exterior of the most efficient alchemy factory.

A building that maintains the widest possible area while hiding what’s going on inside just enough.

That’s the building I’m building right now.

“For now, the exterior building is all done… I’ll build the internal structures.”

Since the next stage required knowledge of redstone circuits, I activate my ability.

Knowledge comes in with a faint headache.

“Safety, good! Check, good! No accidents, good!”

Having also shouted a safety slogan I heard somewhere on the internet, I begin the internal construction.

[lol]
[Manual labor, Mr. Na lol]
[That’s hilarious lol]

What, the reaction is better than I thought?

It was a word I spat out without thinking, but the viewers seemed to have burst out laughing at an unexpected part.

“Hehe, I’ll start the construction.”

Redstone here, a torch here, and gravel here…

I proceeded with the construction in the most efficient and certain way possible.

As I did, it seemed to be turning into a somewhat monstrous internal structure.

But what’s important about that, this place is now going to be a mine for digging up money.

Right, as long as it makes money, the appearance is not very important.

[What on earth are you making lol]
[What is it, something like a prison?]
[A monstrosity, for real]

“You’ll find it pretty when you see what this will earn later.”

Regardless of its appearance, the internal construction of the building was all finished.

Next up is the test run.

Click

The lever is pushed, and a signal starts to go to the redstone.

That redstone signal goes to the block placer.

Next, gravel blocks come out of the block placer one by one.

Normally, the blocks should be fixed in front of the block placer.

But since gravel blocks have the characteristic of falling, they naturally fall down.

Crunch crunch-

The fallen gravel blocks are destroyed by the torches installed on the floor.

And, the flint that is dropped at a certain probability when the block is destroyed all goes through a hopper into the material converter.

Rumble rumble-

After that, as everyone expected, the flint turns into gold ingots.

Right now, it doesn’t look like much because I deliberately put in a small amount of gravel blocks.

But later, if I increase the number of gravel blocks, an overwhelming result will come out.

With this, the construction of the currency mine was all finished.

[Oh, automation]
[Why is it working?]
[This is quite interesting]

Then what should I do from now on?

[Purchase Gravel Block x64]
[Purchase Gravel Block x64]
[Purchase Gravel Block x64]
…

I can just activate the money duplication bug and go have fun.
