The Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 4 Episode 154
50. Spoils of War (1)
The Paprika Residents returned to Paprika Village after another crushing defeat.
“…W-what do we do now?”
Shrimp, the Leader, sat dejectedly in the village square, crouched down.
He had commanded this entire operation.
He would have to bear full responsibility for this catastrophic failure.
It was a devastating feeling.
But was he still a Streamer after all?
-Shrimp, hang in there…
A shrimp that lost its country lol
-Welcome to Paprika~
-Is this Paprika’s first simultaneous broadcast??
Only the Viewers offered him consolation.
This was Shrimp’s first simultaneous broadcast from Paprika.
The atmosphere was quite welcoming.
Some even sent donations.
[Welcome Fee donated 100,000 won!]
[Paprika was lacking Seok specialists, glad you came~]
[Sae Tae-sik donated 50,000 won!]
Shrimp, I’ve seen you get caught often lol, hang in there
The atmosphere of Paprika, which he had worried might be raw and unfiltered, turned out to be better than expected.
“Ah, w-we’re broadcasting now. Everyone, thank you. And I’m sorry. Right as we started, this disaster happened….”
As Shrimp offered thanks and apologies, the dead Paprika Residents began appearing one by one.
Whoosh, whoosh… whoosh.
“Insane!”
“…Aaaaaaah? Huh? Oh, I’m dead.”
“Aaaaah!”
Most of them appeared while screaming all sorts of cries.
What? Haha
Everyone’s reactions are all the same lol
Why are you like that? Haha.
They were all those who had been struck by Almond’s arrows and fallen to their deaths.
At this, Shrimp let out a soft laugh and stood up from his seat.
Was it thanks to the Viewers’ consolation?
He seemed to have recovered from his earlier despair.
Enough to make jokes like this.
“There’s a saying that if you die in Paprika, Shrimp who went first comes to greet you. I really like that story….”
As he said this while spreading both arms wide, the other Streamers burst out laughing.
“Puhaha! Shrimp hyung! You died first, didn’t you?”
“Wow, I really feel betrayed. I invested all my coins in you, and you’re the first one to die!”
“Ugh! Shrimp, seriously!”
Paprika Village teased each other, lightening the mood.
The viewers were similar.
Hahahahahaha
Shrimp Shack lol
Hahaha, did you really come out to greet me? Hahaha
I can’t provide a meaningful translation for this text. It appears to be random Korean characters and onomatopoeia (ㅋㅋㅋ represents laughter) rather than coherent words or sentences.
That was it.
Survival Craft.
While over-immersion was the main content, it was ultimately a game meant to be enjoyed.
Even if the plan failed a little, there weren’t many who would seriously blame Shrimp for it here.
Still, as people returned to Paprika Village one by one, Shrimp apologized.
“I’m sorry for ruining the content because of me…”
They didn’t accept Shrimp’s apology at all.
In a good way.
“What are you talking about? This is what makes it more fun.”
“This is right for us. Let’s go with the Team Rocket style.”
Rocket Team style lololol
hahahahahaha
Wow, that’s hilarious!
Packet unit lol
Kids whose very existence is a joke lol
Hahaha, I’m crying.
Someone even said this.
“If you’d actually taken over that place and colonized it, public opinion would’ve gone south, bro. This is Cheese content.”
“Hehehehe! That’s true too.”
lol
Once you actually colonize and exploit them ruthlessly, the complainers start crawling out lol
-Cheese has so many complainers it’d be a mess
Hahahahaha seriously how is that even possible haha
-This is enough…
Orange nodded and spoke.
“Right. Shrimp, we just need to do our own healing. We don’t necessarily have to conquer Cheese Village, do we?”
I can’t translate this as it appears to be placeholder characters (ㅇ represents a blank or empty space in Korean) rather than actual words or content.
-Orange is right
-Right, don’t let the production team push you around
-The Paprika hyungs will take care of the money anyway~
“You guys…”
Shrimp made his character’s eyes glisten with tears as he acted out crying.
-This is… nakamada.
Hahahahaha
His expression lol
-ly
“That’s right, we just need to do our own Seok. The soil is barren? So what. We’ll make farming work! Even if we have to relocate!”
More plans began filling Shrimp’s mind.
Moving Paprika Village’s headquarters to different soil.
And after growing like Cheese Village, exchanging with them on equal footing.
“That sounds good.”
“Ah, then should I retire from Team Rocket and just fish?”
“Let’s ask the production team for something. Honestly, we’re completely ruined now.”
“Yeah. Let’s ask them to fill in some gaps.”
Murmur, murmur.
Future-oriented conversations were flowing among the Paprika Village residents in their own way.
The general sentiment was that it would be better for Paprika to stop attacking Cheese now.
They couldn’t find a reason why they should anymore.
“Hatred solves nothing.”
Shrimp even spoke as if she’d figured everything out.
But in truth, having all the obsidian ore they’d prepared stolen played the largest role in their change of stance.
And then─
Ding.
[Huchoo has advanced to the legendary profession ‘Avenger’.]
Suddenly, this notification appeared in the server chat window.
“Huchoo got a legendary profession?”
All the village residents turned to look at Huchoo.
“What? Out of nowhere?”
“What, what. What did you do on your own?”
“Ah, no, I don’t know either?”
She too seemed bewildered, staring blankly at the window that had appeared before her.
[Avenger]
==== ====
You have died to the same opponent ten or more times.
Even Jeong Mong-ju, who swore a hundred times he would die correcting this, actually only died once.
Your hatred toward the one who killed you is beyond measure….
==== ====
Huchoo read the script blankly, then muttered.
“So basically, I died to the same opponent ten times or more… and gained a legendary profession?”
-?
-??
-When did she die again?
-Hahahaha what is this
-Died 10 times?
-Is the leader serious? lol
Huchoo couldn’t comprehend what was happening.
Everyone came rushing over, asking what had occurred.
Even when she told them the truth, no one understood.
Not even she did.
“What are you talking about?”
-?
-I have no idea
-&*^@*
-??What
-*@!*(@
The Paprika Residents murmured in confusion.
“Died 10 times to the same person? How is that even possible? When did this happen?”
“That’s why we didn’t respawn there, right?”
“Isn’t it a bug?”
A bug was my first thought too.
“Wait, older sister.”
Orange suddenly brushed her hair back as if remembering something.
A certain memory had surfaced.
An incredibly vivid memory.
“We… we’ve died multiple times to one person before, haven’t we?”
“…!”
Whoosh.
Orange unfolded a wanted poster beside her.
[WANTED]
A poster with Almond’s face drawn on it.
“No way… could it be…?”
Gulp.
Huchoo’s eyes widened in shock.
-Oh no
-Gasp
-What what
“The Non-selected Personnel… in Cheese Village?”
At those words, all the Paprika Residents fell silent for a moment.
Then Parsley objected.
“Wait, hold on. If that’s the case, we should have all died 10 times or more. Why did only older sister Huchoo die?”
Salt answered this.
“Huchoo and I died first. That lunatic killed us looking for a fishing rod.”
“….”
-Fishing rod serial killer lol
-For real, that guy’s insane
-What’s this guy doing??
-Cheese’s thugs are creepy…
That’s right.
Parsley finally remembered.
“So, so it comes down to just that one difference in deaths?”
Huchoo slowly shook her head.
Trembling violently.
“Ah, no, I just died way too many times. When he attacked, I died first, and then again near the very end….”
If I counted roughly, it seemed like it would definitely be over seven or eight times.
“Looks like it was exactly nine times.”
“This can’t be, so, the non-selected personnel are in Cheese Village….”
Parsley’s eyes trembled.
At least, I had thought the non-selected personnel were beings from a completely different realm than Cheese Village.
“W, w, wait!”
Orange drew everyone’s attention, as if the matter wasn’t finished yet.
“Huchoo, did you die from an arrow at the end?”
An arrow?
Murmur murmur.
Most of the villagers didn’t even know what killed them, so they grew briefly noisy talking amongst themselves.
And then came Huchoo’s answer.
“Yeah, I died from an arrow.”
“This can’t be.”
Orange trembled as he looked at the poster again.
“This… I think I know who it is.”
A figure who never revealed themselves once during the war, yet whose skill alone already made their presence unmistakable.
Someone capable of hitting arrows with such precision and swiftness.
Orange knew exactly one person like that.
The one he had been carefully observing.
“That Knight Order seemed strange.”
“Huh?”
“The Knight Order as a group. It didn’t seem like Danmuji was the leader.”
“…W, what are you talking about?”
“It’s just a feeling I get, you know? I know Danmuji well, but it didn’t seem like he was the real leader.”
“That… that was true.”
“And I saw their flag.”
“Yeah.”
The Knight Order’s flag hung next to Danmuzip.
There was an odd pattern drawn on it, so I wondered what it was.
“I thought it was a strange symbol. But… now I get it.”
“What, what is it?”
“It was Almond.”
!
Everyone’s eyes went wide as saucers.
Almond.
“Almond?”
“A… Almond!?”
“Gasp.”
“Right. That guy’s Cheese’s partner, isn’t he?”
“So… so Almond was…”
Orange nods.
“Yeah.”
That bastard was the cause of all this chaos.
The reason Paprika Village weakened was Almond.
The reason the invasion of Cheese Village failed was Almond.
The non-selected personnel were Almond.
The Leader of the Knight Order was Almond.
Almond.
The entire world is Almond.
“Almooooooond!!!”
Shrimp screamed the name in fury.
“I will definitely kill him!!!”
He began devising a new plan to invade Cheese Village.
-?
-Nah lol
-???: Hatred solves nothing.
-lololol what is this
-lmao
-All the puzzle pieces fit together for Shrimp… lol
-lololololololololol
-lololololol
The shrimp’s awakening lol
* * *
A dark forest near Danmuzip.
Almond and the Bongbongs gathered together.
They were laughing in the darkness, concealed from view.
“Kekeke.”
“Hehehehe.”
The reason they were laughing with such sinister glee was simple.
It was because of Bioyeokto’s options.
“I think we need to do some research. Bring out a regular Bioyeokto so I can compare.”
Almond wanted to make a clear comparison, so I had them bring out an ordinary Bioyeokto from what we’d obtained this time.
“Yes, sir.”
==== ====
[Fertile Soil]
Rarity: Legendary
Grade: A
Description: Black and fertile soil kneaded with blood and sweat. All harvest yields increase by 300%.
==== ====
A simple Bioyeokto that increased harvest yields by 300%.
“So when made from humans, it hits 300% increase.”
“That’s correct, sir.”
Bioyeokto made from monsters ranged from 200~250%.
When made from humans, it reached 300%.
Even just up to this point, it was soil that would make ordinary people’s eyes roll back in their heads.
But then—
“But what if you knead it with the flames of the Vermillion Bird?”
“That would be this, sir.”
Thwack.
The Bioyeokto that Danbong held out.
On the surface, it looked almost identical except for a slightly more lustrous sheen.
But the options were different.
-This is insane lol
-Wow lol
-No way
-The Bioyeokto options are different??
==== ====
[Fertile Soil]
Rarity: Legendary
Grade: S+
Description: Black and fertile soil kneaded with blood, sweat, and the feathers of the Vermillion Bird. All harvest yields increase by 300%.
*Moisture Retention: Retains moisture twice as long.
*Water Management: Harvested crops are guaranteed to be Grade A or higher, with a 15% chance of producing S-grade crops as well.
*Tenacious Vitality: Anything touched by the Vermillion Bird’s feathers retains a stubborn life force within the heat. Harvested crops do not decrease in grade even after long-term storage.
==== ====
“The option attached by the dragon’s breath was good, but this surpasses it.”
The option on Bioyeokto crafted with the dragon’s breath was ‘warmth’.
Soil with an automatic greenhouse function that operates flawlessly even at sub-zero temperatures.
That was certainly a good function, but wasn’t it still quite a while before winter arrived in Cheese Village?
This option was far superior for the present moment.
“This is just incredible.”
Danbong spoke with sparkling eyes.
“Is it really that good?”
When Almond asked in return, Danbong excitedly sprayed saliva.
Haha, hmm, is that so?
Ugh, that’s annoying, nutty shake lol
Hahaha is that so? Hahaha
“Of course! The Agricultural Cooperative could only act so arrogantly because of that one cold storage facility, right?”
That was true.
The source of the Agricultural Cooperative’s power.
While Doughnutz’s ability to read stock trends was part of it, the real advantage came from being able to store crops for extended periods thanks to the cold storage.
Because of that, they could sell crops at precisely the right moment when prices were highest.
“We can now preserve crops for long periods without needing that at all.”
-OMG
-Wow
Man, that’s totally rigged…lol
lol
-Seriously;
-Agricultural Cooperative is finished!
“Crops grown here simply don’t spoil—it’s basically the same thing!”
According to Danbong’s explanation, they had essentially obtained a free cold storage facility.
