Episode 60-Crash (10)
“So, the tribal leader here, Orndo, eventually attacked the small tribes with the support of Garhan and formed this large tribe.”
“That’s right. By the way, what on earth is that? “Hasn’t the heavens taken away people?”
“It’s not a big deal, so there’s nothing to make too much of a fuss about.”
The moment he returned several people, including Riena, to the village first, and the people who returned to the village began to rest for tomorrow.
Even at that moment, Varun, who remained at the scene, could not rest. After completing the minimum amount of organizing, he was inquiring various information from the three Ornn warriors who surrendered without resisting or running away.
In fact, the warriors were distraught when they saw these people suddenly rising into the sky and disappearing somewhere.
‘Garhan is a typical conqueror of the grasslands.’
Varun evaluated Garhan’s method of using force to unite tribes to increase power as traditional. Their basic rule is to follow the strong.
Those who resist are destroyed and absorbed. Even those who do not resist are subdued with great force, and in return for receiving taxes by receiving an oath of loyalty from the tribal leader, they are given minimal authority and made into his confidants.
Ornn’s tribe, which Varun took over today, was also one of Garhan’s tribes that was created that way, regardless of what tribal leader Ornn was thinking. In fact, many of the current tribal members were from recently absorbed small tribes.
The justification itself was weak. With just the slightest chance, they could change their affiliation at any time.
‘The sense of duty that has been sleeping inside us is so weak due to the struggle for survival that has lasted for so long. However, once these people begin to receive His grace one by one, they will not be able to think lightly of it.’
Varun smiled faintly upon seeing that. Because the people you lead will be different. You will go beyond simply struggling to survive and have a strong will in your heart.
“I guess what happened today also reached Garhan’s ears?”
“Well, that won’t be the case. The former tribal leader wanted to monopolize all the loot. But since we were attacked in reverse while preparing for war, we wouldn’t have been able to send the news.”
In response to Varun’s subsequent question, one of the warriors claimed that Garhan must not have heard this news. In fact, Orn, the former tribal leader, did not make any contact.
“But there are people who have run away, so the news is clear…”
“Well, come to think of it, I can’t even see this guy.”
However, it was foolish to do something like this and hope that the news would not spread around. Many people have already broken away and run away, so it is clear where they went with this news.
“It doesn’t matter. We do not avoid Garhan or anyone else. “Because they are entrusted with an inevitable, sacred mission.”
“I don’t understand. What on earth is that? “It’s a mission.”
“I will tell you that you too are warriors who can be chosen by Him.”
When Varun did not care that Warchief Garhan, who had numerous warriors, would be angry, the surprised warriors asked him why. Varun, who took aim at that, grinned and soon started talking in a solemn voice.
Of course, the story was about a guardian spirit who took care of them. It was a ridiculous story that was hard to believe, but the warriors had no choice but to believe it because the clear evidence was himself and the troops he led.
“I’m worried that I may have told you too much when I haven’t even returned to the village yet.”
“It was done on purpose. “They will spread the story they just heard around, and then all the new residents here will know about our intentions.”
After the story was over, the bustling village, which had been lit with torches until late at night, became quiet. Rakum approached Varun, who had a tired face despite his increased stamina after awakening mana, and opened his mouth in a voice of concern.
In fact, Varun shook his head at Rakum’s words.
“We are different from Garhan and other tribes. The purpose is different and the things we have are different. “If we make this known, those who are still afraid of us will change their minds.”
Abundant resources, continuous opportunities for growth, etc. However, that generous support came at the cost of obligation.
The idea of fighting with a sense of duty and mission may be an unfamiliar concept to those who have lived without a set goal and with survival as their top priority.
Varun planned to use it as a weapon.
“When tomorrow morning comes, tell the residents to hurry up and finish preparations for relocation. “Maybe he will help you, so give priority to packing first.”
“All right.”
Varun, who gave instructions to Rakum, was able to rest only after that.
The person who was watching them while drinking strong coffee also went to bed around that time.

‘But I see you were ready to move in one day?’
It was a leisurely morning. As if it was obvious, I headed to the computer and looked at hundreds of residents who were already almost ready.
As befits their characteristics, they didn’t seem to have much baggage to begin with. They move quickly despite Varun’s orders. What happened last night turned many of the neutral people into allies?
“It might take a while.”
With a small sigh, I grabbed the mouse and dragged as many of the prepared tribe members as possible. At the same time, he picked them up by left-clicking on them and began taking them to the village by moving through the screen.
A task that must be repeated quite a few times to move all hundreds of people. I could have had them come in person, but I could still do this much.
Because there is something more problematic than this in the first place.
‘How do I look at every single thing?’
Now, we have slowly entered the stage where we need to manage the residents collectively rather than taking care of them one by one.
Examining their condition, classifying them according to their talents, and distributing them to necessary spaces is an essential part of our development and growth, but it is impossible for me, as a human being, to do this alone.
So, some mechanical help is needed. Even as I moved the mouse across the rapidly changing desktop, my eyes were fixed on a single icon on the desktop.
A spreadsheet program from a famous company used by millions of people. If you link it to the master program, it will definitely have special functions like other programs.
[Spreadsheet Program Excellent: 1500P]
The price is not cheap for a program that is not a game. However, it was a price worth investing in now that I had enough points.
‘I’m going to keep using it anyway.’
After a short period of deliberation, I finally activated the program. I activated it based on my own judgment, not because it was recommended by the master program, and because I thought it would be useful.
[Enter the captured residents’ information]
And fortunately, my thoughts were correct. The program activated as a master program provided exactly the features I wanted.
After moving all the residents who were about to relocate to the vicinity of the village, I was able to insert all the residents’ information into the program with just one capture and file opening.
‘If we awaken everyone, there will be over 30 warriors.’
While the newly relocated residents were unpacking their belongings in the village with bewildered looks on their faces, I began the classification process, easily searching through their organized information.
Those who can awaken as warriors, those who can have production characteristics such as miners or farmers, etc.
The function of the program is not just that, it also has the ability to graph the growth status of separately classified people, simply display the current status with an icon, and track and find where they are.
Of course, because so many people came, even if we classify them that way now, we couldn’t wake them up right away. Because the necessary materials are lacking.
So, in order to obtain those ingredients, our seniors had to work hard.
‘Varun needs to rest and I’m busy so I can’t help it.’
I brought only Larsen and Shura here. Riena was not brought here because she had to be brought to Dark Blood, Rakum was left to rest because he was very tired, and the other warriors were thrown into Dark Blood’s hunting mode to change jobs.
On the other hand, Larsen and Shura, who were young and had a good rest after arriving in the village first yesterday, were in good condition based on the status window.
“—?”
“–…”
However, although both of these people are recognized warriors, the boy who bowed hesitantly when he saw me who had called them here and the girl who scolded the boy still looked young to me, so at first I thought I would move with them.
‘No matter how you look at it, the monsters in this game are not that strong. For these two people who have mastered all the skills, the underground world is enough.’
I held a titanium sword in my angled hand and waved my hand to tell them to follow me. After making the pickaxe, it was an item created by additionally converting the residents’ property using a file converter.
The place I led them to was the entrance that I had dug into the ground like crazy.
The two were taken aback by the sight of the entrance, lit only by sparsely placed torches, as if it were the entrance to a dungeon, but they still headed down the angled stone block stairs and headed to the basement together.
‘After all, they are not miners and cannot break blocks. I’ll just go down to the second floor and block the third floor.’
The underground world that exists randomly under the ground is literally a place created with a dungeon as a motif.
The floors are divided and become stronger as you go down. Maybe similar to a bug nest. Since there are only Larsen and Shura today, I planned to guide them only to the second floor, where the weakest enemies appear.
“—!”
When I broke the stone block that I had previously blocked with a pickaxe, a monster inside found us and started to approach us.
It was a monster called the Skull Golem. Looking at it this way, it was a cute monster made up of cute bones, but when Shura and Larsen, who were surprised, approached it with weapons to fight, it soon turned into a monster made of skeletons and its blue eyes flashed.
‘I have to do the body fat.’
I moved my character to run forward and swing my sword. My character, who is very simple compared to his real-life monster counterpart, does nothing but scribble, but he doesn’t feel pain or die right away when he gets hit.
“—!”
“–. –!”
If I draw aggro like this and get beaten up, the two people will try to attack on their own. The slash swung by Shura with his dagger drawn and the thunderbolt fired by Larsen with his staff each hit the guy’s body and shattered it to pieces.
Unfortunately, the monster’s essence was not dropped, but it doesn’t matter. This is a place full of advanced monsters that give the essence of monsters.
If the two of you work hard until you get used to it, you two will probably be able to hunt this new hunting ground well without my help.
