Golden Experience

"'Gross' and. All right. Now all we have to do is water. Please."

"Yes! Thank you!

Nafusaku thanked the landlords who had applied "plant magic" and watered the wheat grown in the field with "water magic".

I want to give them natural fertilizers and water if I can, but it's difficult in an environment like this.

I don't grow wheat in such harsh environments.

However, if you use the "plant magic" of this landlord, the "fire magic" and "water magic" of vegetable rice crops and other players, you can root wheat in such an environment.

Rather, if it took so much effort, we could take it to harvest much sooner than usual.

It's still early considering that the growth cycle is short due to the specifications of the game.

Nagatomi came to this village because he was invited by a player whose hands were warm.

Originally he rented a field in another village and played relaxed, but the field was also attacked village-by-village by a mysterious giant monster and was to be lost.

Reconstruction would have been possible if only to say that it had been crushed, but some of the giants used magic, which was destroyed so that it could not be easily played by "fire magic" or "earth magic".

Not that the monster giant had such an intent, but it was simply magic that could be used.

As a result, the crops were burned, and the fields were buried by the rocks and stones of the magical remnants.

NPC villagers also pessimistically blocked those situations, and while the village stockpiles were low, it didn't mean that they would buy food from it, and Nanaka Tomizuko naturally left the village.

I was looking for a production player after all, but his hands were warm.

Until now, she had mainly focused on the shaped kingdom, combining her soft waist with the style of being a healer leader, some of whom said she was a saint.

The presence of a real Virgin in the kingdom of Wealth also set the voices on fire, but some players who are home to the shape here say she's more of a Virgin than a real Virgin.

Even during the angel attack, he actively protected the residents, and even during the irregular giant attack, he did everything in his power to save the wounded from the NPC.

That's why she recruits aspiring players, so naturally it was for someone in need.

It was precisely in response to the unusual food distress caused by the raid by giant monsters, which also confronted vegetable rice production.

Its hands found a lonely village situated in a harsh mountainous area, made contact with the landlord who represented the village, negotiated it, attached the permission to open it, and gathered the power of the players of the production system to create the fields.

It seems to have been a coincidence that the warm hands found this village.

She's the one who can't help but do things for people.

The second event, the monster flood, seemed to have repeatedly shifted from city to city with my partner Amatein, and appeared on the unfavourable battlefield to save it.

The unfortunate mistake caused some cities to fall at the hands of people, but later in the event, the war also settled, and she now seems to have decided to lend a hand in creating a map, which some players were looking for help with.

So as we moved through the city and village, we accidentally discovered a small village like this hideout.

Even though it's a hideout, there's a mercenary union, so it's not really hideout.

The only thing that was in this village was originally a small field that had been finely cultivated with only what we needed.

Even so, it's this climate. Whatever is impossible, regardless of scale, is impossible.

There was also karakuri even though this little field was achievable.

That was the rare skill of the landlord dwarf, "Plant Magic."

"Thank you, Master Bogdan. Now we're going to see a steady amount of next harvest."

"No, I decided to cooperate. Don't worry about it. And there are so many things in this village that I can help you with."

"That's what you can say..."

I don't need more Dear . I'm just a landlord. "

His hands were warm and he lowered his head to Bogdan.

Bogdan says things like give-and-take, but he lends me the land that he pushed on unilaterally, and he uses "plant magic" that no player currently has. Whatever you think, we're better off.

Until now, this village has been small but self-sufficient. I don't really need the help of a player.

"... and I'm the proud dwarf of the shape. I live like this now, but that's why I don't feel like abandoning my compatriots. If you're trying to save your people, it's only natural to cooperate."

There is a reason why the hands are warm and the vegetable riches are working on such harsh land.

Not to mention the whole shape, but to secretly produce enough food to feed other villages and cities to some extent.

The giants who suddenly attacked the shapes appeared in concentrated towns and villages with precise agricultural land, whether by chance or not.

As they starved to death, NPC residents abandoned their destroyed agricultural lands and began to grow in fallow lands and fields on the way.

But in no time do they show up in those places, destroy the fields, and leave.

What are the giants looking for active farmland by?

Unless you know this, how much it opens is for nothing.

The person named Elder in the SNS validation thread, who can be relied on at times like this, is also apparently inactive.

However, when the wisdom of other test teams was gathered and studied, it was concluded that the movement of people and things was triggering.

If we are to revive fallow lands or open new fields, we need to buy from somewhere the tools and crop seeds needed to open them, as well as those that cannot be prepared or destroyed in the village alone, such as fertilizers.

You usually rely on peddlers to get these things.

Not if it's a settlement where players are cooperating fully, but you can still make contact with other cities more than you can say for sure.

That kind of logistics, especially seeds and tools, is triggering them to attack.

It was thought that this hypothesis was largely correct, as no city or other thing had been attacked that had secretly bought only food from darkers.

That's why I chose this lonely hideout with warm hands as a base for food production.

With little contact with the outside world, no peddlers will ever go here.

The tools and seeds were not understood when brought in by the players, and almost all the opening work was done by the players with skills and magic.

If the player carries the crops they produce, it's no problem.

The system should not be able to detect it.

In fact, it's been a while since we started this work, but there's no sign of this place being attacked.

Looking around at the shape as a whole, the village is isolated from food insecurity, and the presence of players who work in shifts also reduces the daily tasks of the villagers, enabling them to live a truly affordable life.

So much so that the lovers of the village go out there on a date in their free time.

A normal village can't have a worker dating swallows.

I don't feel lightly motivated to kill Nanaka Fukushi without such an opponent, but I am proud to say that it is also due to our own activities.

"─ I see, were you using magic and skills to force the crop to fruition? It's been a long time since I've bothered to come to such a cold place."

"Huh? What? Who, where?

"Ah! Up there!

As his hand raised his face to a warm voice, there was a beautiful man with gray hair and red eyes who was still in the air carrying heavy cloudy weather.

Very well dressed, with demonic feathers growing from his back.

"... isn't that bad? Who is it?"

"... I don't know, but at least it's not a friendly atmosphere here. ─ ─ I just called for backup."

For farming to carry around, only the vegetable riches are coming out to the fields, but some of the villages have other players, including Amathein.

Because the village has very little contact with the outside world, it takes a lot of time and effort to come now, not even during the event. Come on, even if you're not on duty. You can't leave the village.

"It's a new sandbox I found a long time ago. Come on, let's play with it."

When the red-eyed man waved, something misty slowly descended from the sky.

The fog wandered around as if it had its own will, and suddenly the space was distorted and the giants began to appear one after the other from where the fog had passed.

"This is the owner of the giant!

It was unclear where he was coming from because the giants appearing all over the shape always suddenly appeared, but apparently this is how this man was causing it to occur.

"Ko, that this is destroying the shape... Stupid, is this fresh golem? No, the Giant Corps! Why are these guys..."

"Dear Bogdan, do you know!?

The warmth of the hand reacts to the landlord's words.

But we weren't the only ones who could hear him.

You realize you know something, a red-eyed man over there is pointing his hand at the landlord.

Probably going to shoot the magic.

"No! To create them ─ ─"

Abububu!

The landlord is not the wind whose hands answer the warm words, he is whining like a soliloquy. You don't seem to notice how the man over there is.

Nagatomi ran off unexpectedly and drove the landlord away.

"'Blaze Lance'. Oh..."

Lispawned in a private house jointly rented by the players, Nanaka Tomizuko also hurried out there to confirm his lost experience.

I took the magic of a red-eyed man instead of throwing the landlord away, but it seems he died.

If a player like Nagatomi works, his experience will be reduced even if he dies, but landlords who are NPCs will not.

Those hands were still warm there, but I couldn't let her imitate them. We have to hurry back.

When I came to the field, there were already other players there, and their hands were warm enough to explain the situation.

"Perhaps that red-eyed man is the mastermind of the giant raid! I don't know what skills, but it generated something like fog and it looked like a giant was coming from it!

Master Bogdan has backed up! Nagatomisaku-san was covering for Bogdan-sama earlier ─ ─ Ah, welcome back!

Apparently the landlord has retreated.

He seems to know something about his enemies, and there are NPCs that cannot be revived if he dies, and he must protect himself.

"─ ─ This village disappears from the map today, so it's the same no matter where you let it go." Earthquake "

A red-eyed man unleashes magic again.

Then the earth shakes, and the ground is broken, and the rock protrusions appear one after the other, and they start poking at the heavens.

Nagatomi was still far from the player base, so avoidance was not so difficult, but it was not easy to get all the rock projections out of the swaying earth without knowing where they came from. Some of the players were pierced by protrusions, took heavy damage, and vanished into light.

If you're a combatant player, you don't seem to get hit by a single blow, but in a producer player like Nanaka Tomizuko, it's hard to withstand the boss's offense.

The problem is that the enemy used magic in the middle of the wheat field.

Sadly, the wheat has been cultivated by magic, and the smell of blue is scattered around them and they are breathing.

The projection of rock created by this magic doesn't seem to be the type that stays on the spot. It quickly collapsed and returned to the earth, but it's no consolation.

Anger over this irrational manipulation springs up in Nanaka Tomizuko's chest. What the hell did the wheat do?

"How dare you!

"─ ─ Yeah? You're the one who burned the charcoal instead of that Elder Dwarf? Why are you alive... yes, the one with the vault... a Gentile? I see you're back. Which means that those who have just finished it will be back soon. Is there a base over there?"

Travel through the air like a red-eyed man slips. The blades are not moving at all, but on what principle are they floating?

It fogged around the man's body.

"Stop it! Even this... you!

Nagatomi took the sickle out of the inventory and threw it like a boomerang.

The shoulders of the vegetable rice crops that are also shaken by STR for agricultural work are strong, and the sickle flies sharply through the sky.

However, since the DEX of Nagatomi's work was low and he was not assisted by skills such as "throwing", the aim was greatly diverted and the sickle disappeared into the distance.

"Fuck yeah!

"... satisfied? Bye."

"Wait!"

The man flew away towards the village.

"We're going, too!

"Oh, hey! What are we going to do with the giant he called us!

Titans called by red-eyed men are still ravaging other fields.

Now magic has only damaged a part of the field, but when combined with the giants trampling on it, the village's fields will no longer be good.

"Leave me alone! Anyway, no more fields! The giants are killing time here. In the meantime, you better slap the boss!

As a vegetable fortune, I want to save the fields at all, but it is certainly too late to stop the giants now, as someone just said.

Rather, you should beat the culprit and try to put an end to everything.

Nanaka Tomizuko also took him back to the village with the surviving players.

The red-eyed man seems to have summoned a giant in the village, where his hand is on fire.

It was already too late when Nanaka Tomizuko and the private houses he rented had already burned down.

It's probably because the dead players aren't coming back. We will not respawn the building that was set up as a safety area until it is destroyed.

"You're suddenly stuck!

"Not yet! If only we could defeat that man!

"That's right! Players who get offense over the sky, go for him! Those who can only attack melee will contain the giants!

The players with bows and magic attacked the red-eyed men one after the other, and the other spread throughout the village to stop the giants.

Nagatomi ran away with one hand trying to disrupt the giant's brutality.

Then the hand ran warm after the vegetable rice crop.

Sure, she's lacking in offensive magic and it'll be hard to give an effective hit to a boss in the air, but she still has to have an important role to play as a healer.

If only she were herself ─ ─.

"Nagatomisaku-san, please!

"Yes, welcome!

"Oh good! Please, I want you to get Bogdan out of this village to a safe place."

"Eh? Ah, ah, yes..."

Of course, I knew.

"Nagatomisaku-san is not very high in terms of combat power. That's the way to put it, but I don't think it's easy to play against giants and that red-eyed man.

Therefore, I would like to ask Nagatomisaku-san to play a role in getting Bogdan-sama out of the village.

All fighters must turn to the red-eyed men and giants, and the other non-combatants are gone.

... It was a failure to call everyone on that spot before we knew the danger of the enemy. It was because I wanted a view from a few different angles, but I can't believe it was destroyed to the point of Lispawn... "

"Don't even say it to everyone. It's okay. I get it. The landlord will let me try to escape responsibly!

"Best wishes. There will be some things that Bogdan is not convinced about leaving the villagers to flee alone, but I think Nanaka Tomizuki, who presented herself earlier and protected herself, will listen. … and then this."

When his hands were warm, he took something out of the inventory and made him hold the hand of a vegetable fortune maker.

The moist palm was soft and just filled with the warmth of saying no falsehood in its name.

"Holy shit, what's this?

"... this is a resuscitation item called Zagreus' heart. If you want, give it to Bogdan-sama."

"Yikes....!

Is this the resuscitation item that was being discussed in SNS?

I had heard that they were handed out in the rewards of the boss crusade rankings for the last event, but I thought it was an unrelated item for Nanaka Tomizuki, who is not on the crusade.

But in that case, it should be precious to the warmth of the hand.

"Then please. Master Bogdan should be returning to his mansion. ─ ─ See you on the bulletin board about how it went after that!

The warmth of his hand was left behind, and he ran back to the battle against the red-eyed man.

What was left in the hands of Nanaka Tomizuko was a super rare resuscitation item and faint warmth.

You can't fail to meet expectations if you're entrusted with something like this.

Nagatomi ran toward Bogdan's mansion.
