Chapter 150: Pork Rib Boss Turn Into Paladin (Part 1)
This meant that every day, the shop needed certain things, and if the players provided them, they would get a good amount of gold coins in return.
The players who received gold coins would then buy items, giving the coins back to the shop.
So now the players had an extra daily quest they could grind for.
The caravan would consume the items, gain gold coins, and restock other goods—essentially making a guaranteed profit.
To Spicy Flavor Fairy, this seemed like a small grind event.
As long as the players diligently completed the quests, they could clear out the shop.
Finally, they discovered new NPCs working in the ironworks as part of the labor reform.
Other players said that this NPC tried to assassinate Hanjun and failed, so he was sent to the ironworks for labor reform.
When this news spread, the players were shocked.
Their first reaction was that they had stumbled upon a major plot point.
Then they wondered who would dare to assassinate Hanjun.
Hanjun was an important NPC to them.
Even though he was young, the quests he gave out were very crucial main story quests.
His true identity was mysterious, and he might be an important NPC.
Most importantly, he was very good-looking.
While most players looked dusty and worn out, Hanjun who is wearing similar clothes like them, seemed to shine with a bright aura, making him the "white moonlight" in the hearts of all the players.
Because of this, in the Ironworks, Lambard was treated differently by the players every day.
He couldn't fight back in this situation because whenever he thought of doing something, he would notice Butch secretly watching him from the side.
Lambard felt wronged and didn't dare to move.
A few days passed like this.
Hanjun was planning things in his mind, and everything was falling into place.
Viscount Hereford and Mr. Turner didn't disappoint him.
They managed to spread the news, which attracted not only merchant caravans but also important figures like Hallyne, and of course, the members of The Order of the Shattering Light like Lambard who wanted to assassinate him.
In other words, the news about the awakening of the God of Light was spreading rapidly, just as he had predicted.
Of course, most people are still skeptical about this.
They scoff at the idea of the God of Light awakening, which is understandable since Hanjun has been asleep for so long that people have forgotten about him.
But Hanjun believes that once Ulon Town is fully built, more and more people will come to the town on their own, working together for survival.
With his influence, the number of followers of the God of Light will also increase.
As more people believe in him, the power to resist the demons will grow stronger.
After all, he has given humanity a chance—a chance to change their fate through their efforts.
Looking at the situation now, things aren't going as well as Hanjun had hoped.
He thought more people would come to Ulon Town, but in the end, only Hallyne stayed.
In Hanjun's eyes, this number is far from enough.
Hanjun knows he can't rush this.
It has to be a done step by step.
The good news is that thanks to the players' continuous efforts, Ulon Town has started to take shape, which has satisfied Hanjun quite a bit.
As Hanjun was thinking about how the game should develop next, he suddenly heard Hallyne approaching, surrounded by a group of people, with a friendly smile on his face.
Hanjun: "?"
He usually likes to stay in familiar places to think, so Hallyne shouldn't know about this spot.
But when Hanjun saw the players behind Hallyne, he immediately understood what was going on.
It seems that Hallyne, this old alchemist, has already figured out how to use the players effectively.
He's quickly become skilled at it.
Hanjun looked at Hallyne, waiting for him to ask his question.
Hallyne, who had known about Hanjun's identity for a while, now seemed to have found something useful.
He excitedly rubbed his hands together and said, "Sir Hanjun, I've found a way to solve the problem of not having enough workers."
Hanjun curiously asked, "Oh? What's the solution?"
Hallyne who is still excited, continued, "Based on the ideas and suggestions from the heroes, I've developed an all-purpose farming machine. It can plow, plant seeds, watering, and harvest the crops. This way, we can solve the current issue of low food production due to a lack of workers."
Hanjun: "..."
That name sounds like something the players would come up with.

This must be Flower Deer—she's the one who knows the most about this kind of thing among the players.
Sure enough, Hallyne added, "We owe a lot to Flower Deer. That person is definitely a genius in alchemy."
Hallyne didn't understand why the heroes' names were so strange, but since they were heroes, it wasn't surprising.
Hanjun asked, "That sounds good, but what powers this thing?"
Hallyne replied, "I've heard that the quarry has mined some special mana stones? If we fill these mana stones with magical energy, they can be used to power the all-purpose farming machine."
It seems Hallyne is quite useful.
In just a few days, he's already made something impressive by following the players' ideas.
Hanjun felt relieved—finally, someone useful had arrived.
Hallyne was still immersed in the joy of inventing a useful alchemy item.
Unable to contain his excitement, he continues saying, "I suddenly understand why the God of Light summoned so many heroes. Their ideas are very wild yet grounded in theory. I've even heard of something called a Gundam—maybe I can try making one."
Hanjun was speechless.
The players, after witnessing the wonders of alchemy, were now dreaming of creating a Gundam.
But even though they talked about it, with the current technology, building a Gundam would be difficult.
Let them explore it on their own.
Hallyne snapped back to reality and added, "The mana stones can be reused, but unfortunately, their production is low and they're quite expensive. It seems the all-purpose farming machine can't be mass-produced."
