A Village Has Appeared on My Desktop

Episode 35 – Miracle on the Frontier (5)

‘Was it just a simple accident?’

A very disappointing ending considering it was incredibly tense. Well, even if I were to move my character and fight Riena, would I really be able to win? As a superhuman, her movements are faster than how I control the character.

Another player intruding may be nothing more than an obstacle to her.

The only thing I’m worried about is that other players will find out about this. Of course, this does not mean that there are no preparedness measures.

If you want to avoid conflict with them, just send the residents out and disconnect them the moment an intrusion occurs. When a room explodes, intruders are automatically kicked out.

“—. —?”

At that time, Riena slowly approached me and pointed to the area where the other player’s dead body was and said something.

There, in place of the corpse that had turned into steam and disappeared, was a glowing item. It is an in-game item that I can pick up, and it is one of the benefits given to the winner of PVP.

[Essence of Experience]

The name of this gem, which is the size of a ping pong ball, is the essence of experience. The price of PVP defeat is none other than experience points. Those who are defeated by Riena have lost part of the character they acquired by clearing the story mode and developed based on it.

‘Available?’

This item was also available to me. If you use it, your character’s level will increase dramatically right away.

But I hesitated to use the item. If it’s something that can be used on me, it can also be used on residents.

I am just a character who cannot escape from this game, but they are important people who will escape from this place and fight other enemies.

[can not be used]

“what. why?”

I immediately thrust it at Riena. It is also a trophy obtained through her skills, and as her skills increase, it becomes easier to proceed with the remaining tasks.

However, when a notification window popped up saying that it could not be used by her, I was taken aback.

‘no way.’

Just in case, I opened an Internet window and searched for the item. What I learned is that the essence of experience acquired through PVP cannot be used if the experience points are already full.

It was said that Riena, who was already a mature warrior, had no need to absorb other people’s experiences.

“–, —?!”

Thanks to this, my eyes naturally turned to Varun and Shura next to me. These two people were not awakened from the beginning, but were artificially awakened after they came to my desktop.

Of course, they didn’t have any artificial experience points, but it’s clear that the effect will appear in some way.

***

“Joe, Chief?”

He was just happy to have found someone to use the essence of the experience he had gained, but after the eclipse disappeared, Shura, who had rushed here with Varun, could not help but hesitate as a large knight with his face covered in a mask approached without knowing anything.

“Don’t be too surprised. “I don’t mean to hurt you.”

Riena, who was more familiar with his antics, reassured the surprised Varun and Shura. This was possible because they had confidence and trust that no matter what he did, it would ultimately benefit them.

“Ugh.”

In reality, he just used the items he had in hand. This shining stone, which left his hand and floated in the air, gave off a stronger light and then burrowed into Shura’s body.

Shura was embarrassed and hurriedly fumbled with his body. However, there was no feeling at all that a foreign substance had entered.

And when he saw that, he used his emotional expression and took the action of giving a thumbs up.

“It means positivity. “It’s nothing, right?”

“Well, now.”

Liena, who interpreted his actions, also looked closely at what was happening. With everyone’s attention focused on Shura, he tried to sense something in his body.

“uh?”

And then. An unknown power that was tickling in her body stirred.

He artificially awakened mana using the monster’s essence, and equipped with the dagger skill potential inside him in the form of a job change. Due to the essence of his experience, that talent began to grow rapidly.

“Riena, Shura’s Managa!”

“It’s my first time seeing this, but I think we need a way to vent.”

Varun was shocked when he saw the cloudy and cloudy energy oozing from Shura’s body. Riena, who realized what it was, hardened her face when she saw the ghost soldiers in the distance.

‘If the effect is this good, is it necessary to farm the essence of experience?’

Riena took Shura, whose mana was about to run out of control, and hurriedly ran to the ghost soldiers. Naturally, the ghosts recognized them as enemies, screamed, and charged at them with their weapons pointed.

Riena and Shura battled the bastards with their own weapons. However, it was not Riena who played an active role in the process. Shura held a dagger as big as his forearm in both hands and began swinging it.

There was no awkwardness in his movements or posture. As if they had been doing this for a long time. Even though he is a child from a rough border tribe, his fighting power is unbelievable.

He watched it from outside the monitor, taking his hands off the keyboard, and smiled faintly as if he was interested.

In order to provide resources, weapons, and strength to the residents of the desktop who must fight against the monsters of another dimension that threaten themselves and those around them, efficient ‘management’ is conducted using their information and programs that only he can see and use. ‘Because I set it as my goal.

The essence of experience that could be gained through PVP was a miraculous substance that could rapidly increase the experience level of residents who were inexperienced with the newly acquired power, like the essence of a monster that achieved artificial mana awakening.

“Can you give this miracle to others too?”

At that time, Varun, who was watching Shura going crazy unable to withstand his inner strength, carefully spoke to his character who was standing blankly.

Varun already saw this ordinary-looking knight as the same person, or of the same type, as the divine being they worshiped on the outside.

‘hmm…’

Of course, he could not understand Varun’s words and was fiddling with the mouse with a voice chat program that he suspected might be able to hear the residents’ voices if activated.

But just because the words don’t make sense doesn’t mean the meaning doesn’t make sense. If you are confident that the other person is a human being like you, you can at least get an idea of what they want.

“We have received great grace and have brought our declining tribe to this point, but it is still not enough. The enemies threatening us are too many and too strong, and we have only just taken one step forward. We need more warriors and more miracles to fight and survive. It’s shameless, but please continue to look after us. “I will do anything.”

A thrilled Varun cried out to him after seeing how he had seen and awakened the talent of a young girl named Shura.

To Varun, he is like a god. Because there were more than one or two miracles he showed that broke common sense and laws.

At this point, it was more than just a rope that had to be held on.

‘Anyway, we’re on the same boat, so I can’t tell you this.’

He could roughly understand what Varun was saying by looking at his earnest eyes and actions, but for now, all he could do was smile bitterly outside the monitor.

Even if Varun didn’t have to worry like this, he was planning to devote time and attention to the residents anyway.

For him, the residents on his desktop who suddenly appeared were a means to protect his life, and at the same time, it was the ultimate pleasure to see them grow day by day.

Until he learned that bugs could invade this world, he observed and helped the residents out of pure interest and enjoyment.

And the more time we spent observing them and sometimes engaging in activities together in the form of games, the stronger and firmer the bond that grew within us.

“…thank you.”

Varun was so moved that he lowered his head when the man, who was standing still looking at him, raised his arm and gave a thumbs up.

I already knew what that action meant through Riena.

“What happened to Shura?”

“I was so drunk with energy that I moved too much and got exhausted. “If you sleep well and wake up, you will probably learn to control it yourself.”

When about an hour had passed. Riena ran wild, unable to control her boiling energy, and returned to Varun’s side with Shura, who had collapsed from exhaustion.

Varun himself needed to practice, but he had a hunch that it would have to end here today.

“More things like this will happen in the future. “We have no choice but to get used to it quickly in order to explain it to those who will awaken in the future.”

Varun was already making plans of his own. They thought that if it was certain that he, who performed many miracles, would help them, they needed to follow his plan as well.

“What else do you want to do here?”

“We will increase the number of tribe members and explore more distant places… First of all, we must first ensure the safety of our tribe.”

Varun, who returned to the village together, grinned as if he had already thought of something. The sun had already set, but Varun did not fall asleep and called someone.

“Chief, did you call me?”

The person who received the call was Maureen, who has been working hard today in a world full of blocks. Maureen, who came after a hearty dinner, looked a little puzzled at Varun’s call.

“The reason I called you was because I thought I would need a lot of your strength.”

“My strength?”

“The power to move heavy materials into a square box shape.”

Varun mentioned the carrier trait that Maureen had awakened. The power to carry, transport, and even install blocks collected from the block world in their block form.

“I saw the potential while watching watchtowers being built. “How about using that ability to build a castle to protect our village?”

“You mean your last name!?”

Maureen’s eyes widened in surprise at Varun’s words. This is because for them, s*x does not have only a simple meaning.

For those who lived a nomadic lifestyle, a strong fortress or castle was a structure that was a symbol of the settled peoples of other lands.

Naturally, the castle was not well-received by the tribes of the grasslands. If they could make a living by building castles, they would do so, but since castles are something they can neither build nor need to build, they look down on them and look down on them.

“We have the power to do that now.”

But Varun made a decision with confidence. Now is the time for them to evolve to the next level.
