Wave defense successful.
Calculating rewards based on difficulty.
Calculation complete.
This wave's difficulty has been rated as Insanity.
Points have been awarded.
Newbie: Now I can buy 4-star traps and minions... We're all fucked lol
Gonna kill myself (Predicted replies: Season 513251 suicide incoming, this guy's dying to elves)
Looking at his leveling speed, he's gonna lap the leaderboard soon lololol
I'm pulling insane exp and points this time too...
Fuck, seeing that hits a wall... Newbie, just step on me and climb lol
Helpers really give out fat rewards... Wasn't Julius's also Insanity?? Got more levels and points than that??
For real, I was shocked too...
Maybe cuz it's the one the Blessed One pampered...
Was one of Sinclair Party's core forces anyway.
But damn, didn't expect to hit Lv.80 this fast
Dungeon Gallery giving me relative deprivation feels...
Sorry ㅠㅠ
Nah, not complaining, higher levels are good lololol
Why you giving our Newbie the cold shoulder?? Personality issue??
Our Newbie's growing tall and strong, gonna hit level 32153512 and live with me forever
lol
Answer me.
lol
-_-
Newbie-nim's dungeon already wiped everyone who came, what more wiping you talkin bout???
Restia and the slaves are still alive tho ㅇㅇ looks like foreshadowing
Oh lol
Newbie-nim, can we see the newly unlocked facilities...? Pretty curious...
Buy traps and you'll still have points left, buy minions and still have points left
Wonder where all those points gonna go
That's my dilemma too ㅇㅇ
Newbie
Yes, hyungnim?
When's the next live stream?
Upload when intruders come, hyungnim lol...
Got a request for the next stream... Can we see the crying statue in action?
If there's a chance, I'll give it a shot.
Sweet enough to rot my teeth.
The intruders' blood and flesh became nutrients for the dungeon.
Dreamland had grown even more terrifying.
"I'm thrilled."
This wave was a resounding success.
No info leaks or anything.
Insane amounts of exp and points rolled in.
Time will tell,
but with the elevator guide gone alongside Max,
it was pure honey for now.
All thanks to the school and the anomaly minions.
Time to give a shoutout to Zone 2, who worked harder than anyone.
"Squishy did great too!"
"Blech."
Of course, with the school and minions all asleep right now,
I couldn't exactly pass on the sentiment.
Anyway,
is there really a need to reinforce Zone 2 any further?

Damn, just looking at this lineup feels solid.
For mazes, you'd need at least two weeks to starve out intruders, dragging the wave super long, but the school just keeps roasting them non-stop like that manga line 'Wrap it up in 5 minutes.'
It's Dreamland's ace zone in every way right now.
Honestly wondering if it needs more reinforcement.
School can only evolve a limited number of minions anyway.
Guy named Game Master and the crying statue, but honestly, that's about it.
And max six minions deployable to the school.
The only real downside? Staff room location is random.
If it'd been on floor 80, no escape scroll would've even been in sight.
Though Jack flambéed it anyway, so moot point.
But calling that a downside is iffy.
Escape scroll kinda counts as a defense win too.
So reinforcing Zone 2 from here? Maybe one extra minion or space expansion, but meh.
Dreamland's gotta watch out for multi-wave runs above all.
Info is everything.
If it leaks, minions and traps get neutered hard.
Can't be helped.
That's the anomaly life.
So Zone 2 ain't what needs reinforcing.
The dungeon's structure itself does.
And there's a way.
Right now, at Lv.80.
Dreamland evolves into an even tougher, more convoluted dungeon.

Buy just these, and even Blessed Ones are doable.
Least that's what I think.
Still,
better check the gallery just in case.
Hyungnims, what you think of these minions??
Buy em right now
Wtf lol these exist??
Dungeons getting hellish as they go lololol, gonna be like Bitch Dog Love Dog's dungeon, Blessed One repellent??
Newbie-nim
Yes, hyungnim?
If it turns out you can share minions and traps later, could you maybe put one in my dungeon? Begging for real, I'll go full naked pledge...
No need for naked pledges... If chance comes, sure ㅇㅇ
Thank you...
Reactions were solid.
Good.
First up, bought the Memory-Eating Cat.
Hit the button, and like other minions, it prompts for deployment zone.
I picked the core room.
"Whoa."
Thought it'd be cute since it's a cat.
Nope, just a grotesquely sculpted cat statue.
Unsettling Valley vibes.
Half human, half cat mashed together.
Would piss the bed if it showed up in a dream. Terrifying.
Bought the Ink-Manipulating Rat too.
Same deal, uncomfortably grotesque statue.
Fitting for an anomaly, though?
Both sized like me or bigger.
Carefully set them down next to the sleeping Doppelganger.
Wiped them down with a towel recovered from intruders, and Squishy wobbled over.
"Blech..."
Yeah yeah.
Don't worry.
"Squishy's our dungeon mascot. I approve."
Petting Squishy like crazy today too, as I pondered.
350k points left.
Time to build the next zone.
What vibe for Zone 3?
How to make it scary enough for upvotes, hmm.
I picked up a construction helmet from the intruders' loot—looks just like a hard hat.
Strap it on, cinch the chin strap. Done. Easy, right?
"Construction mode ON."
Well, I can think it over slowly from here.
