Dungeon Shop Mayhem: Giant Carrots Sell Out!
My otherworldly wonder of a shopping spot, the Dungeon Shop, had exploded into total chaos. To be precise, my product listing was ground zero for the frenzy—there'd never been a shitstorm quite like this.
Just ten minutes earlier, I'd posted that "2x Bigger Carrot" listing while pretending to be nuts, and when the sold-out message popped up, I was questioning if it was all a dream. Then the buyer's review hit, and comments started pouring in like a chatroom flood—I just stared blankly as they cascaded down.
◈ Big Size Carrot: 50 units / 1,000,000p
What snapped me out of it was the money alert chime.
"Holy... insane!!! Jackpot!!!"
If anyone else had seen me like that, they'd have pointed and called me crazy, but I threw my arms up to the sky and shouted "Hooray!"
No way, no way...
I'd thrown up those carrots at 20,000p each with zero expectations, just playing the madman, and some lost little whale had snapped them right up. They sold out the instant I listed them, and even I couldn't believe it—I was hyped.
And apparently, I wasn't the only one feeling it.
"Heh heh heh heh........."
Even today, scanning the comment section full of zero compliments had me grinning ear to ear. Normally, I'd think Why the hell am I reading this crap? before chucking my phone and crashing for the night. But today? It was hilarious.
They were still calling it a scam, doubts about my crops only growing, but like the saying goes—even hate is attention.
Am I an attention farmer now?
The vibe was a bit off, but it felt like my crops had gained a mystical aura from all this.
Yeah... talk all you want.
There's a marketing tactic called noise marketing. I wasn't doing it myself, but my potential customers were pulling aggro for me.
Normally I'd furrow my brow and sigh, but today it was fun. New potential whales kept pouring in.
Anyway, I poured fuel on the flaming product page.
Suddenly I've got 1 mil... After seed costs, that's 500k profit... Time for top-tier NaKkuNaKku bed!
I started humming.
[Search: Bed]
Whoosh—
"Whoa... so many?!"
I knew the Dungeon Shop had everything, but the bed varieties were wild. Prices blew past my expectations, though, so I clicked one at 1 mil p.
Oh... jackpot...
The Dungeon Entrance is generally mild spring weather. But real dungeons for raid teams or high-rank awakeners have all kinds of climates, so beds with these features made sense.
Check others?
I got hooked on the shopping thrill.
Whoa... 10 mil?! A folding bed for 10 mil?!
Beds over 50 mil even had stealth.
Sleep soundly in dangerous dungeons...
My farmland provides a safe zone anyway, and the Entrance is low-risk, so I didn't need it, but damn, impressive features.
Before I knew it, bed searches led to tents, camping gear... related recommendations, and I was browsing the Dungeon Shop like crazy.
This place was a whole new world.
I'd ignored it before due to no points, but now it was packed with fresh, bizarre wonders everywhere.
No wonder everyone raves about the Dungeon Shop.
Sure, only awakeners can use it, but these days some buy for non-awakener friends. Everyday stuff was even cheaper here than outside. Plus, instant inventory delivery—no shipping wait or fees. And zero commissions on sales or buys.
Whoa... total game-changer!
Makes sense even normals praise it.
I was lost in the ocean of products, mind blown. Stuff I didn't need suddenly felt essential. Useless junk I desperately wanted.
This could go on forever, but I couldn't stop. Beyond just wanting to buy, the sheer novelty was time-warping.
Everyday items were cheap, but dungeon-exclusive or enhanced premium gear was insanely priced.
Whoa... what's this? Log cabin?
Not just any log cabin—it was an artistic masterpiece like a master craftsman carved it.
Sale price: 500 mil.
Shiiit... Gangnam prices? Wait, pocket change there probably.
Modern interior, huge scale—impressive, but who buys to live in a dungeon? Pools attached, 3-story brick houses, 2-person outposts, 1-person outposts... Angel spring, fairy fountain, auto-light streetlamps... Reed fences, wooden fences, rose vine fences, bone fences...
Bone fences? Wild. Full architecture and landscaping—truly everything.
Like a game.
Prices were nuts, but with cash, fairy-tale mansions were doable.
Oddly, modern interiors but no modern exteriors.
Huh... some restriction?
There are Dungeon Farmers like me, plus Architect or Artisan awakeners. Not surprised they're sold here, but still cool.
And it steels my resolve.
Gotta grow some signature crops ASAP!
Meant to just browse, but ended up buying a bunch.
Hmm...? Memories of roughing it in the dungeon made me buy camping gear like I was possessed.
But... made bank today...
Crop sales were peanuts, but with 100 mil from the Association, I still had over 90 mil in the shop.
Still... gotta save. No shopping for a bit!
Wanted protective gear or weapons, but didn't search. Knew the urge would hit hard.
Better farm hard first, prep as sales roll in.
Entrance ain't that risky—take it slow.
Bit of a splurge after ages, but felt good. Chomped the tasty cheeseburger, crashed on the fluffy feather mat for sweet sleep.
Morning, a message waited in the shop.

Rubbing sleepy eyes, I stared, clicked the 1, and checked the message.
