Ant dungeon management simulator (¬‿¬)

Translated the prologue because I hate all of you here aside from eruuuuuu erueruuuuuuuuuu, larvyde, and Solace & possibly LKK because they scare me

[Breimn]

Is it good? I have seen it on the weekly rankings for a while but did not have time to check it.

Nope, it's awful
I don't know, I actually just finished reading the prologue five minutes ago, LOL

[obnuchious]

MC is quite fast on the uptake on what needs to be done, huh.... hmmm...

[wuhugm]

It hasn't even been 2 weeks since the webnovel itself start written, and we get a thread already...

hoping it's not going to crap like "Only I can go home, classroom transition"

[Yoburi]

I honestly feel bad for making that thread I'm sorry

[Breimn]

Not your fault the author went full tard.

[wuhugm]

^^yup yup, bahaha, pity... it had potential.....

Anyone's been reading Ant's nest to the latest? Usual questions pliz~

[Okashira]

Gave it a quick, incomplete look; hard to make a call with so few chaps, but has some aspects that I like.

Spoiler:

- No silly fawning over heroines nor nothing after 30~ chaps.
- It's a traditional approach of dungeon vs humans, no chance to solve things peacefully so far.
- Due to the previous points, tons of deaths on both sides are pretty much mandatory. The MC doesn't attack nearby towns or something, but when the the chips are down in the dungeon, he is aware that if he doesn't repel or kill the enemies; he is a goner (the most prized item and only item of the dungeon is his life sustainment dungeon core).
- Monsters apparently have a big autonomy, so they are not "directly commanded" all the time and they can interpret orders as they see it fit.
- So far, the whole reason for fighting is that the dungeon is close to a town, and usually dungeon monsters run rampant outside the dungeons once they grow strong; attacking the populace.
- The mc only has a single friend so far, a fairy.
- Seems to have the potential for plenty of fights.
- There is evolution + named monster is special fuatures.
- There is demon lord and summoned hero, both have been only rumors so far.
- There is no shortcut for the dungeon master, he seems cursed to be the weakest in the dungeon (this is actually one of the things that is interesting about this).

Spoiler for battle log:

So far, 3 invasion events have happened :

- A 3 member all men party, D rank but ability was close to C rank; they have an ambitious and money minded reason to invade, all killed.
- 4 member B rank party that had a more noble reason for fighting, managed to get away with no loses thanks to decent luck + the dungeon being young, 2 members were pretty girls (elf + cleric, I tihnk?).
- 4 member A rank all men party; they were cool and weren't evil and were leading 200 soldiers + 20ish adventurers; their contractor had ambitious motives; everyone was wiped out.

So far, it looks like it's gonna be "innocent might be spared, but the guilty is gonna be killed" troupe. Death is not made a big deal, it's part of the job (the mc chills out and drinks honey after killing hundreds of humans in self defence; even though many of them made cool scenenarios like a guy throwing himself to the monster mob to buy time for his pals to escape, just to find out that the exit was sealed long ago).

There are 2 bosses in the dungeon that haven't fought yet, Queen ants. Unfortunately they don't seem to be humanoid man eating waifus

Cool~
Kinda wanna read it. I'll hope for a translator, if the author doesn't completely drop the ball.

[Yoburi]

Lol People alerady want to see the MC bang some Queen ants... hope that happends

[Houraisan Kaguya]

So... the MC is an ant? Then the MC may be female (from what I read in the thread, the MC is a worker ant, and the worker ants are all females) or since this is fiction, the author screwed the biology .

Well, in any case, let's see how it develops .

[jaydreadzz]

can someone described the MC?

[fallencrow04]

Sound like RO dungeon [anthell]

dunno how you got the thought of the MC being an ant.

the short daily updates

Spoiler for :

a ch for 3 of the females among the giant ants.... still not going into why the fairy and giant ants can communicate but okay.

unlocking new functions by giving the more high grade items (mainly the equipment of the A rank adventurers) to the core

king fire dragon gets beaten and seeks out a 'treasure' that would grant it power..... the neighboring forest, also the hometown of the fairy.

thus begins the ants vs dragon chs.

so I guess this is just some really fast story.

Spoiler:

And so it ends

So, even the king of the junge-forest; the great lion-Red Dragon is done for if he gets swarmed by a bunch of killer ants. I remember hearing a lot about that reference when seeing documentaries when I was younger.


.... So, the local lord still doesn't want to stop the investigation of the dungeon, even though the difficulty rating they should assign it is pretty much capped after wiping out a top ranked party and a giant dragon. What's more important is that now the dungeon has the fame of killing a dragon king and it will probably become a place for top ranked fame seekers to aim at.

[Okashira]

This one got picked up by Monster Bunko, first volume will be out in a month. Artist is いちやん who can draw like this, he is a veteran artist that has worked in a lot of novels (but none of them too popular).......

.... And that's too pretty of an art for a novel with apparently no heroine; so I'm guessing the higher ranking ants are going to get beautified a ton. That, and / or some female adventurers are going to get a bigger, more long lasting spotlight.

[Breimn]

Vol is out btw. Looks like there are fairies. Are they in wn?

[Kaito Yamakage]

I'm surprised this is still going, it completely died for a while then I think he completely re-made it.

There were fairies in the original, MC doesn't contact humans but rather just talks to his ants and fairies.
