Paper 165 Growth Predation
The first thing I did was design [Ego] and [Predation]. No, should I say settings? It was also important to link the two options together.
[Chloride Predation]
: It consumes its main attribute, chloride. It is used as energy for one’s own use through digestion, transformation, purification, and storage.
[Ego (Lv. 01)]
: The lowest level of ego. However, by consuming strong energy, they absorb experience points and level up and grow.
This is the very first setup.
First of all, since specific settings are more important than broad settings, I focused on [Sulfuration]. In addition, [Low Level] was removed from the [Ego] option and [Level] was added.
Originally, [lower ego] was a mixture of [intermediate AI] and [growth type], so it wasn’t difficult to add [level].
Well, this is not difficult, but how much probabilities are maintained. In other words, the key was how much SP you saved.
‘Actually, this explanation is too ambiguous.’
I mean, it’s so broad.
So I added another setting.
[Experience]
: When a specific energy is absorbed, it is used to raise the ‘level’ by replacing the energy with experience.
[level]
: The level rises with the acquisition of ‘experience’. When the level rises, it undergoes ‘growth’ in proportion to it.
wrote two more.
And after thinking about it for a while, I crossed out the [Level] below.
“All you have to do is attach a level to a specific option. It’s a setting that already exists.”
‘Experience’ is not listed separately in the settings. There are occasional system phrases that increase experience, but the criteria are ambiguous.
So it was specific.
But the level already exists.
There is no need to spend extra SP.
‘What if I create [Experience] and create [Level] and [Experience] columns in [Flame Devouring] and [Ego]?’
There are a total of four options.
However, attaching these one by one can also add SP.
So I decided to combine them into one.
The option name is [Growth Predation].
[Growth predation (chlorination)]
: Gain ‘Experience’ by ingesting ‘Chloride’, its main attribute. The experience is used to increase the ‘level’.
* [level grant]
* [Experience calculation]
And put this setting into [Ego].
If you do.
[Ego (Lv. 01)]
: It is the most basic lower ego, but it has infinite potential for growth.
* [Growth predation (chlorination)]
After all, a lot of settings were done.
However, there are only two options you will use.
[ego] and [growth predation].
If you put [growth predation] in [ego], it becomes a ‘growth ego’. Also, if you put [Growth Predation] on undead or certain artifacts, they will grow on their own.
The reason why I put it in [Ego] once more was because I was concerned that only things other than the ego would grow due to the level increase.
“… … Neat.”
This is perfect.
[Setting Intervention] is more detailed and more probable, the more SP consumed. Since this is only ‘specialization’ or ‘remodeling’ that focuses on one side of the existing level system, not much SP will be consumed.
What worried me was the word ‘infinite growth potential’ in [Ego].
‘I think this will eat the most SP.’
do it from one
-Would you like to save the setting called [Ego]?
– A total of 25,000 SP is consumed.
“Hu-Is this good enough?”
Not so much.
and next.
-Would you like to save the setting called [Growth Predation]?
– A total of 35,000 SP is consumed.
“… … This isn’t too bad. Why does predation consume more than ego?”
Jihoo tilted his head.
Is it because ego is limited to ‘ego’? Although it has potential, [ego] alone does not grow.
This is because it is a setting that can grow only with [Growth Predation].
“I guess so.”
Jihoo decided to save these two.
In one [margin scroll]. Save it here and use it when and where you need it.
And before that, I will study through [understanding].
“This isn’t about making a game.”
It’s like being a developer.
It’s like a developer’s mind thinking about how to reduce scripts and make them more efficient.
“… … Now you just have to understand.”
I’m going to have a little headache for a while.
But this is fun.
You have to [understand] this, but you’ll be able to make higher-level settings perfectly and efficiently. Then I suddenly had an idea.
‘Isn’t this tower made by someone with permission to intervene?’
It was just a passing thought.
Because that couldn’t have been possible.

Kim Mi-yeon, the head of the union, looked at the clues that were intricately entangled. Numerous memos and lines connecting them on one wall. At first glance, each case was unrelated, but her [truth-seeing eyes] could tell that this series of events were pieces of a huge puzzle.
But it’s still just a guess.
Her [eyes to see the truth] resemble [insight]. And [insight] is ‘looking through things with sharp observation’.
The problem is that this insight sometimes sees the truth while omitting intermediate steps.
‘This is how it’s like seeing only the forest and not seeing the trees.’
A covert movement occurred in the shadows.
If you collect the movements that occurred, you will see a large sketch. However, it is not known where or how the clandestine movement began.
Also, if you don’t know where it started and why, you can’t predict the finished picture.
‘Kiskov. Why did these guys suddenly start doing this sh*t?’
It was a prosperous military industry.
The money is ridiculous, and the newly elected president is still young and capable. It’s hard to find the motivation to start doing this nonsense.
However, there is no information coming from the fanatic group [Nocturne]. It’s just that something has changed systematically while doing weird things that I used to do.
There is a goal.
But it doesn’t look like that.
It can be seen that these are working in advance for a certain goal, but that goal is not visible.
She activated the hologram communicator.
And soon someone’s face came to mind.
-What, why did you call me?
“Where is this noisy?”
– Somewhere, Antarctica. I’m beating up Nocturne remnants now! hey! aren’t you standing there? You crazy bastard!
“… … .”
Kim Mi-yeon, the union leader, waited for a while.
The screen turned dizzy and I heard something breaking and exploding, and then I saw [The Demon King Lee Gu-sang] with blood on his face.
The face of the current Hunter Association president appeared.
– Oh, it’s over. what happened all of a sudden
“Why is there a Nocturne in Antarctica?”
– I don’t know. I came here after being informed, and they said they were making an altar and holding a rite. I wanted to kill them all this time. ha ha ha.
“… … .”
Director Kim Mi-yeon shook her head.
This guy is always like this.
I don’t think of pulling out the body by hooking the tail. They think that if their tails are cut off, their jaws will come out, and they mess things up like this.
“Isn’t it strange these days? Nocturne and Kiskov guys.”
-hmm? is it? I’m not sure. It’s not a day or two that these guys do this. Even demons are rampaging these days, so it definitely seems like the era of peace has come. If it was our time, we wouldn’t have had time to fight each other to stop the monsters. yes? ha ha ha.
Kim Mi-yeon, head of the union, shook her head. Then he opened his mouth.
“We should get together sometime.”
– Gather? we?
“No, committee.”
… … what’s really going on? Why are you suddenly convening a committee?
“Because it’s not unusual for the situation to turn around. It’s hard for me to watch alone. Maybe it’s because the years have passed, and everyone doesn’t listen to me. My eyes are dark and there are many places I cannot reach.”
-Hey, is there a guy who doesn’t listen to our Miyeon? Aren’t they the ones who don’t intend to live long?
“From you. this child How long are you going to keep punching in the field like that? I’m not thinking of becoming the center and gathering strength.”
-hahahahaha, I knew that wouldn’t happen anymore. But you’re serious enough to say that.
“therefore. Let’s convene.”
– I should. It’s been a while since I’ve done anything! Meeting of Human Representatives for World Peace!
“Don’t call me so cheap! Ha- I feel like a child whenever I talk to you. Hurry up and activate the channel.”
-okay! I’ll activate it in 3 days! What? There’s one more over there! Everyone catch that baby! hey!
“… … .”
So communication was cut off.
Director Kim Mi-yeon shook her head once again. I’m out of my mind when I talk to this guy.
Do people really know?
With the terrifying nickname [Lee Gu-sang, King of the present world], he is the current president of the association, and one of the members of the peace organization representing mankind goes around kicking his fists like that.
Kim Mi-yeon, head of the association, suddenly thought of Shin Ji-hoo.
‘Poor guy.’
he is growing well
legacy left by his father.
The karma left by my father.
I feel sorry for Shin Ji-hoo, who has to shoulder that huge burden. She knows that, but she can’t say anything to him.
Because that was to protect Jihoo.

“welcome!”
Kim Mi-ji stood on one side and received a guest. The guest looked at the artifact. He smiled and nodded as he stood to one side and looked at equipment for newbies below level 3.
Then, at the end, when he saw some level 8 to 10 equipment, he opened his mouth as if his jaw would fall out, then returned to a collapsed look.
“… … Do you think it gives you a sense of relative deprivation?”
Jihoo, who was studying next to him, said.
Then Miji Kim nodded.
“I can’t help it. Looks like you’re only level 4 now, but you’ve seen a level 9 artifact. Maybe if I gave it a level 6 or 7, it wouldn’t be noticeable?”
“Are you talking like an experience?”
“You made me… … .”
“hahahaha.”
Jihoo smiled awkwardly and went through the list of requests.
“5 gun mods, 1 for flying artifact auctions, and 1 for the Healing Wand Intermediate. Can we just do this this week?”
“Yeah, should I not accept more requests?”
“I think that would be fine. There is so much to do.”
“Can’t we just sell artifacts now?”
“Still, I have to keep accepting requests.”
“Why?”
Kim Mi-ji’s doubts were natural.
Now, even if you accept a request, there is a profit difference of more than 100 times compared to selling a single flying artifact.
However, the [General Store of Trust] should not only look at money. Kim Mi-ji may not understand that, but Ji-hoo, who has been on this street since childhood, clearly knows.
“Artifacts for newbies are a must. Like the geothermal man in front of you.”
“Well, didn’t you say that the blacksmith in front of you was also an S-class craftsman?”
“yes. Even so, they sold level 3s and 5s without making any profit. Then, since I didn’t make money, I bought unidentified artifacts… … .”
“Then you got slapped on the back by the lady?”
“That’s it.”
In fact, if you become a geothermal man, if you make a masterpiece by hammering for a few days, you can easily get tens of billions of dollars.
But it doesn’t.
For him to properly lift the hammer, he must touch passion, not money, just as Jihoo brought [Adamantium] this time.
Unless that’s the case, I don’t make swords just for money, I make cost-effective equipment for newbies.
always.
The same goes for Aunt Kim Mi-yeon.
She doesn’t have to distribute heavy-duty materials below level 5. If you only look at money, of course you shouldn’t treat it like that.
do it nonetheless
Steadily.
“You know that the survival rate of newbies goes up and that everyone can survive in the long run only when there are a lot of newbies coming in.”
“… … is it. After all, even if you look at the magic tower, it’s always receiving people. Although the purpose is slightly different.”
Jihoo had such a conversation with Miji Kim.
Then, I suddenly became curious.
What is Lee Min-ho, who possesses electric shock characteristics, doing these days? What else will Kim Ye-bin, an elite candidate for the Korean Hero Academy, do?
Being nice to them was also being kind to newbies. Talented and well-rounded newbies are always welcome.
