TL: Hanguk
The Brazilian media were outraged and condemned Han Tae-jun and the hunters for their actions. It’s not even fanning the flames of a burning house, but rather planting more grass to aid the reproduction of the locusts!
However,
Crunch.
The moment they saw the locusts rushing to eat the sturdy blade green onion leaves, the tone of the Brazilian media changed from anger to praise.
At first, they were skeptical, but as the number of such locusts exceeded hundreds of thousands,
“Are you watching this?! The locusts are rushing to kill themselves!”
Crunch. Crunch.
The media was busy filming the locusts, who were eagerly trying to eat the green onion leaves, unaware that their bodies were being cut by the blades, and broadcasting it.
And then,
“We will now have an interview with Captain K, the leader of the Earth Defense Force, who saved the capital of Brazil by planting sturdy blade green onion leaves.”
“Hello. I am Captain K of the Earth Defense Force. We are acting under the orders of Deputy Commander Yellow…”
Han Tae-jun made his debut on the broadcast with the codename Captain K.

Wiing.
Wiing.
As Sejun approached the beehive, more and more poisonous bees felt a sense of familiarity and approached him.
And Sejun realized why the eastern end had been dark. It was just that there were so many poisonous honey bees that it appeared dark.
“Is this the place?”
Sejun, surrounded by tens of thousands of poisonous honey bees, asked the poison honey bee that first led him to its hive.
Wiing!
[Yes! Just go straight from here!]
The poisonous honey bee, sitting on Sejun’s palm due to the overwhelming number of other bees around, responded.
After about an hour of travel with the Bee’s guidance,
Wiing!
[This is our beehive!]
A huge mountain appeared.
And then,
Wiing!
[Enter the cave! We will take you to our queen!]
The poisonous honey bee guided Sejun to a cave at the base of the mountain. Inside the cave was a massive labyrinth. Or should it be called a massive apartment complex? There were rooms everywhere, and inside each room, 5-10 poisonous honey bees were working or resting.
Wiing!
[Go to the left!]
The poisonous honey bee effortlessly found its way in such a complex place. After about an hour of traveling inside the cave with the guidance of the poisonous honey bee, the queen of the poisonous honey bees appeared.
[Great Queen of the Wild Poisonous Honey Bees]
Biing?!
Wiing!
While the poisonous honey bee that brought Sejun and the poisonous honey bee queen were having a conversation,
‘Great Queen?’
Sejun observed the Great Queen of the Poisonous Honey Bees.
She was three times larger than regular queens, and her wings were more colorful. Sejun didn’t know, but the Great Queen of the Poisonous Honey Bees was the queen of all poisonous honey bee queens, meaning she was the supreme leader of the poisonous honey bees.
Then,
Biing. Biing?
[I’d like to taste this honey. I hear it’s very delicious, right?]
The Great Queen of the Poisonous Honey Bees approached Sejun and spoke. It seemed that the poisonous honey bee had done a good job of promoting to its queen.
‘I should give a bonus later.’
“Yes, try it.”
While thinking of rewarding the poisonous honey bee that guided him later, Sejun served the honey on a small plate to the Great Queen of the Poisonous Honey Bees.
Slurp!
Of course, the remaining honey was given to Cuengi.
After eating the honey, the Great Queen of the Poisonous Honey Bees,
Biing!
felt some instinct engraved in her long genetic memory awakened. It was the instinct from the days when the poisonous honey bees lived alongside flowers.
In her mind, she began to think of ways to obtain and produce honey, royal jelly, and other products.
Biing!
[This is from flowers, right?!]
“Yes, do you know about flowers?”
Since there were no flowers in the eastern region, Sejun asked the great queen of the poisonous honey bees.
Biing. Biing!
[Yes! I have never seen them myself, but the memories of my ancestors told me about them!]
“Really? Then it will be easy to talk. Do you want to suck some honey from our farm?”
Sejun tried to entrap the great queen of the poisonous honey bees and her beehive as the conversation was going smoothly.
However,
Biing.
[I would like to, but with your ability, you cannot handle all of my children and me.]
The great queen of the poisonous honey bees expressed her concern.
[The Great Queen of the Wild Poisonous Honey Bees decides to follow you.]
[You cannot tame the Great Queen of the Wild Poisonous Honey Bees with the ability of Beekeeping Lv. 8.]
[Work harder!]
“That’s right.”
Sejun had also confirmed it with the message.
Biing.
[I will send one of my daughters first.]
Wiing.
A queen honeybee came flying with 10,000 honeybees after the words of the Great Queen of the Poisonous Honey Bees. The Great Queen of the Wild Poisonous Honey Bees had several queen bees in the hive as well.
[Wild queen honeybee decides to follow you.]
[10,000 poisonous honeybees led by the wild queen honeybee decide to follow you.]
[The number of poisonous honeybees has exceeded 60,000.]
[Beekeeping Lv. 8 proficiency greatly increases.]
There were no separate hives, probably because they lived with the Great Queen of the Wild Poisonous Honey Bees.
Biing!
[And I’d like you to plant flowers in our area too!]
“Flowers?”
Asking for flowers meant it was okay to plant crops in the honeybees’ territory. Moreover, Sejun could also get honey or honey jelly obtained by the honeybees, which was a win for him.
“I’ll plant them right away.”
Since it was mentioned, he decided to plant crops immediately.
Biing?
[Really? Thank you!]
So, Sejun stepped out of the beehive with the poisonous honeybee queen.
“Land Moving!”
He started planting crops using the Myler’s hoe.
[You planted 10 chestnuts, 10 cherry tomatoes, and 10 corns in the magic power-infused soil.]
[Your job experience slightly increases.]
[Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6, the probability of seeds taking roots increases .]
[Due to the effect of Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6 , the growth of crops speeds up for 24 hours.]
[Your proficiency of Magic Seed Sowing skill Lv. 6 increases slightly.]
Sejun planted a variety of crops like chestnuts and cherry tomatoes so that the honeybees could taste the honey of various flowers. Then, he headed to the entrance of the 99th floor of the tower with the poisonous honeybee queen and 10,000 poisonous honeybees.
“Golden bat, go with the poisonous honeybees and deliver my message to Godori.”
(Yes!)
“You all be careful too.”
Biing!
The poisonous honeybee queen and the poisonous honeybees, whose stomachs were full of honey, were sent by Sejun to the 83rd floor of the tower. Bees were needed on other floors of the farm to pollinate the flowers too.
However, moving the beehive to another floor was a lot of work. So, he hadn’t been able to send the honeybees until now…
But the newly tamed honeybees did not have a hive yet, so he planned to send them to the chestnut farm on the 83rd floor, build a hive there, and harvest chestnut honey.
That’s how Sejun expanded his beekeeping business to other floors.
***
Swoosh.
The black dragon statue on Aileen’s 100th Birthday Commemorative Fountain started to move.
And then,
Flap. Flap.
-Sejun! Where are you?!
Kaiser roamed the farm looking for Sejun.
Kaiser had been drinking makgeolli (rice wine) with Artemis, the golden dragon, Brachio, the green dragon, and Kellion, in the guise of discussing strategies for Kellion, almost for ten days.
Then,
“All the alcohol is gone. I’m sorry. I should have prepared more…”
Artemis said with a regretful expression. It was time to break up the drinking party.
“Already?!”
Kaiser spoke with a disappointed expression. The alcohol ran out just when he was getting excited! This was unacceptable.
“Wait a minute! I’ll bring more!”
So, Kaiser hurriedly returned to his residence and moved the black dragon statue. He aimed for the makgeolli made by Sejun. However, Sejun was at that time bidding farewell to the poisonous honeybees leaving for the 83rd floor.
-Sejun is not here, so I have no choice.
Since Sejun was not there, Kaiser went into the brewery himself.
And when he gathered 10 bottles of makgeolli,
-Huh?! What’s this?
Kaiser found glass bottles separate from the makgeolli bottles. The liquid inside looked like makgeolli, but it had a slightly more yellowish color compared to makgeolli.
-Did it fail?
It looked like Sejun failed while making makgeolli, but Kaiser’s instinct as a drinker strongly told him he had to drink it.
-Let’s take it anyway!
If it really was a failure, he could just rinse his mouth with makgeolli. More importantly, as a drinker, he always had to enjoy taking risks.
-Good.
With Kaiser’s determination, the black dragon statue swallowed the glass bottle, and Kaiser, who gathered the bottles, hurriedly flew to Artemis’s residence.
***
“Let’s go for a walk, kids.”
Sejun, who returned after seeing off the golden bat and honeybees, walked around the farm. The green onion field, cornfield, cherry tomato field, etc., were all well-maintained thanks to the rabbits and mushroom ants.
And then,
[A tenant farmer used Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6 to plant cherry tomato seeds.]
[The Millennium Landlord receives 5% of the reward.]
[The Millennium Landlord’s job experience slightly increases.]
[The Millennium Landlord’s Magic Seed Sowing Lv. 6 proficiency slightly increases.]
…
..
.
A message appeared that proved everything was going smoothly. After touring the farm, he was on his way back home.
“Cuengi, is there anything you want to eat for dinner?”
Sejun gave the decision for the dinner menu to Cuengi, who had been carrying him around.
Krueng! Krueng!
[Dad! Cuengi wants to eat bananas and rice cakes together!]
At Sejun’s words, Cuengi raised his left hand and said banana, and raised his right hand and said rice cake. After eating honey sirutteok (honey rice cakes) a few times, he seemed to want to try mixing something else with the rice cakes.
Krueng!
[I’m going to mix bananas and rice cakes!]
Cuengi waved both hands, sang a song by himself, shook his hips, and danced. It seemed like he was expressing the taste of mixing bananas and rice cakes with his body.
‘He would do well as a YouTuber, wouldn’t he?’
Cuengi would show off his talent, and he would earn money.
“Hehehe.”
Sejun went into the kitchen with his pleasant imagination and started making rice cakes.
A little later,
“Cuengi, let’s eat!”
Krueng!
[It’s mealtime!]
Cuengi, who had been playing outside by himself digging the ground so as not to disturb Sejun, hurriedly ran in response to Sejun’s call.
And then,
Nom nom nom.
Cuengi, who held a piece of rice cake in each hand and alternately stuffed them into his mouth.
“Chairman Park, I want one more Churu, meow!”
Slurp slurp!
Perhaps stimulated by Cuengi eating, Theo increased the speed at which he ate Churu. However, it is impossible for a sparrow to follow a phoenix.
“Kek-kek-kek!”
Theo, who tried to eat Churu quickly, choked. It was the end of the one who tried to show off.
“Why are you trying to compete with Cuengi? Just enjoy eating.”
“I just wanted to win, meow! But I think Chairman Park is right, meow! It’s enough to enjoy the food, meow!”
Chew chew chew.
Theo listened to Sejun’s words and gave up on beating Cuengi and started eating Churu at the original speed again.
“Ah. I’m full.”
“It was delicious Churu, meow!”
Krueng!
[That was delicious!]
Everyone enjoyed their dinner,
Krueng!
[Cuengi is going to sleep!]
Cuengi went to sleep with his mother.
And then,
“Today, I have to drink a glass before going to bed. What kind of alcohol should I drink?”
Sejun headed for the brewery. By now, the alcohol he had prepared should be ready.
Feeling adventurous, Sejun started experimenting by adding ingredients like potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn when he began getting tired of regular makgeolli. Today’s chestnut makgeolli was made possible due to his previous trials and errors.
With such anticipation, he arrived at the brewery.
However,
“Huh?!”
All the various flavored makgeolli that Sejun made was gone.
