    #48

    After receiving instructions to come to Shinpung Station, Choi Si-yu and others had no choice but to stop near Daerim Station.

    “Crazy fuck… !”

    “There weren’t any monsters in the basement!?”

    Crrr… … .

    The Line 7 up-and-down tunnel in front of me was filled with monsters crawling on the floor.

    “It looks like a mole… ?”

    Although they were only about the size of a small animal, they were forming a group and crawling on the rails.

    The men frowned at the sight, which aroused instinctive disgust.

    “Captain, what should we do?”

    “Are you sure you really have to go here?”

    “Just go back to where you were before… … !”

    “Qu… … .”

    Choi Si-yu also became worried.

    Even if he decided to go back, it was obvious that without Daebu Park, he would be stuck due to food problems.

    There was a few days’ worth of food left. The men here had secured most of the remaining food at Namguro Station. However, with search party members including himself present, it was unclear how long it would last.

    Moreover, it seemed like Daebu Park knew his location and situation.

    ‘Should I run away…? … ?’

    It was obvious that if I went to where Daebu Park was, I would see something bad again.

    In that case, one way is to run away.

    ‘… … ‘That won’t work.’

    Choi Si-yu knew better than anyone else what would happen if there was no food.

    Was it because something happened to me once? Siyu was carrying a fear.

    The fear that people might wake up again.

    Choi Si-yu turned towards the men.

    “Those who have abilities can use them from now on.”

    “What… … !”

    “Will you fight? Are you sane?”

    “There is no way. If not, I will take the lead.”

    Choi Si-yu took out his ability, a whip.

    I already knew from experience that guns don’t work on monsters.

    ‘Please be… … . please.’

    “Haaa… … !”

    Choi Si-yu ran down the track and swung at the mole-like monster in front of him.

    Pachi-!

    Caiang!

    In an instant, a monster’s body was torn apart by the whip.

    “Okay, gotcha! A monster… !”

    “Was it possible to kill him that easily?”

    “It looks less strong than I thought?”

    “Haaa!”

    As Choi Si-yu continued to swing his whip and catch monsters, men began to come forward one by one.

    They were all people who had abilities that could be used in battle.

    “Ah fuck. It’s a judgment call… !”

    “Fuck my Qigong faction!”

    The men’s attack was immediately effective.

    The monsters that were so feared fell down helplessly.

    At the same time, a notification begins to appear in the men’s status window.

    [You have defeated the clawed mole (F)!]

    [3 coins obtained!]

    “This is a complete game. If you catch it, you’ll get coins!”

    “Captain, you must have earned a lot?”

    The excited men rushed out and started catching the clawed moles.

    Rather than a struggle with a monster, it was closer to a one-sided massacre.

    After all, the clawed mole was one of the weakest monsters.

    To put it mildly, there was a description in the original work that you could catch it without any abilities, just with a weapon.

    Choi Si-yu, who had been swinging the whip mercilessly, took a breath only when the monster could no longer be seen.

    “Ha. ha. ha. under… … .”

    I immediately grab my stomach as if I’m hungry. It was still bearable.

    What was more important to Choi Si-yu was notification.

    [You have defeated the clawed mole (F)!]

    [100 clawed moles were slaughtered!]

    [The title ‘Mole Slayer’ has been earned!]

    [An additional 100 coins were obtained!]

    [Current coins held: 236 coins]

    ‘236 Coin… … .’

    Looking at the notification window, Choi Si-yu seemed to have some hope.

    ‘Maybe this… … . Independence might be possible.’

    Choi Si-yu also knew about the food worth 9999 coins that was on the exchange.

    The hope is that if you earn like this, you might be able to survive by buying that food.

    ‘If you earn 3 coins or 4 coins like this… … … . Someday.’

    She secretly began making grand plans.

    ***

    Click.

    [The product posted on the exchange has been sold!]

    [Sale amount: 9999 coins]

    [Current coins held: 14523 coins]

    One more sold.

    This time it’s a different guy.

    I’m not sure who it is. It’s not the name of a character that appeared in the novel.

    One thing is for sure, he is so hungry that he has to spend 9999 coins to buy food.

    Thanks to you, I can sit down and earn coins.

    Items that were sold were duplicated and restocked. You have to keep filling things up.

    So what should we do with this coin?

    First, I looked at the exchange.

    The fact that two people who have collected 9999 coins have already appeared means that people who have collected a certain amount of coins have appeared.

    In that case, it was also possible to guess that people who buy and sell goods on exchanges are appearing one by one.

    Sure enough, there were several items other than the ones I had posted on the exchange.

    [Tox Dragon Cub’s Tail – 2,000 Coins]

    [Emergency Recovery Potion – 500 Coins]

    [Thorns of the thornbush – 140 coins]

    … … … .

    … .

    Has it already progressed to this point?

    It probably wasn’t posted by the main character. That guy wasn’t the type to put his stuff on the exchange.

    This must have been posted by people in another neighborhood.

    ‘It’s a cub, but if it’s a Tox dragon… … ‘It’ll be A grade.’

    He’s already defeated Class A.

    ‘It’s probably someone who knows the original work.’

    Although I wrote some criticism on the community, no matter what, is ultimately a popular work with over 10 million views.

    Because it was a work that filled several pages of comments from the community every time an episode was uploaded.

    It goes without saying that there are many readers similar to me in Seoul.

    At least the information in the article will be helpful. By getting items in a specific area first.

    If that were the case, it wouldn’t be strange to be able to catch Class A at this point.

    I could have done that too if I wanted to.

    But why didn’t you do it?

    ‘Because that crazy psychopath protagonist will come to kill you.’

    If he knows that there is someone who stole the opportunity that he should have monopolized, he will never let him go.

    Now, the main character may be enjoying his own food and enjoying his increased strength.

    That alone is the same as setting up a flag.

    In the end, somehow, the main character will chase after you until the end and try to eat those items, so collision will become unavoidable.

    I don’t really want to do that.

    I literally want to survive here, my goal is not to become stronger and beat the main character or anything like that.

    Rather, it would be much better to build your own kingdom and live in a corner.

    Of course, we will meet someday.

    At least until then, I will have to come up with some countermeasure.

    The first is to use food as a weakness.

    Earlier, I received information from Son Ji-seong that more food is needed each time an ability is used.

    There was no setting like this in the original work. I don’t feel particularly hungry either.

    … … Well, maybe that’s because I’m naturally fat.

    In any case, food supplies in Seoul continue to decrease. Because there is no supply.

    This means that the value of food continues to rise as time passes.

    ‘To put it simply, the longer it drags on, the more advantageous it is.’

    That’s why I’m trying to go to Yeongdeungpo Times Square.

    Avoiding Dok Go-jun’s pursuit is also a priority.

    ‘Let’s build a fortress using that shopping mall as a base.’

    I need to build a fortress that can withstand attacks from any villain or monster, and then I can live the way I want.

    Various abilities, structures, people, etc. required for defense… … . There will be more things needed in the future, but at least there will be no shortage of supplies.

    The second is to build a fortress to physically block attacks from the protagonist or others.

    The third is coins.

    It’s good to copy abilities from many people, but the abilities that most people have now are mostly useless or weak abilities.

    Well, there’s no way he could have A-class or S-class abilities.

    At least, you can increase your abilities by strengthening them by using coins, so that is the best for now.

    ‘It would be great if the coins were copied.’

    Unfortunately, among the conditions for the 1+1 ability, the condition of ‘object in contact’ is not met. Coins are intangible goods that exist only in the system. To put it simply, there is no way to contact them.

    Therefore, coins must be earned honestly.

    Of course, I had no time or reason to leisurely catch monsters and make money.

    ‘Shall we start a business rationally?’

    I adjusted the prices of the items I posted on the exchange to an appropriate level.

    In less than a minute after adjusting a few things, you will receive a notification right away.

    [The product posted on the exchange has been sold!]

    [Product for sale: Original replica Mac○Bong sausage]

    [Sale amount: 500 coins]

    Sell ​​one sausage for 500 coins.

    [The product posted on the exchange has been sold!]

    [The product posted on the exchange has been sold!]

    ‘Oh~.’

    this… … Is business going well?
