Chapter 164
Absolute Necromancer Chapter 164
thud!
“What is this?”
After meeting with Alchemy, I returned to the Gold Rich Workshop and lightly answered the question of Melton, who was calmly sucking on a stick.
“Hyungangseok. “It is a premium product and a top quality product.”
“Okay, okay, I understand. Then go inside and use a hammer or rat…Holy shit, what did you just say?”
Hydraulic stone.
When Melton heard that it was a high-quality product and a top-quality product, he was startled, got up from his seat, and pointed at me.
Seeing him surprised, I wanted to tease him a little, but I barely suppressed those feelings and unwrapped the wrapping cloth to show him the shaped steel stones inside.
“If you don’t believe me, check it out for yourself. “I already confirmed it.”
“…Nonsense. “This is really a high-grade stone, and it’s a high-quality product!”
With the advent of auction houses, it has become possible to obtain desired items easily, quickly and conveniently.
However, even rare or difficult-to-find items do not appear at auction.
That’s probably why places like black markets borrow money to make a living.
And spherical stone is clearly a product that falls into the category of items that are difficult to obtain.
‘Some alchemists can’t even make it, and most of those who can make it are only able to make mid-grade or lower grade spherite.’
It’s hard to find, but it’s even harder to find a good one.
That was the value of the sectional stones I brought in a bundle.
“How on earth did you get it?”
“Well, didn’t you tell me? There is a way to save them all. Are you sure you didn’t believe me? “I’m disappointed.”
“…Wow!”
When I looked at Melton with a look of regret, Melton shook off the bear that was in his mouth and stood up.
“Go in. “I’m sure Muyoung’s friend will jump with joy when he sees this.”
“Now that I think about it, old man Muyoung, what are you doing?”
“Well, I’m busy touching the minerals you made. “You’re probably thinking about what to make with them in your head.”
“…Truly, he is a consistent person.”
“I want to do that right now, but I’m leaving it up to him. But I never thought I’d bring a piece of steel….”
I chuckled as I watched Melton lose his appetite again, as it was obvious that he wanted to throw a piece of steel into the furnace and hit it with a hammer.
“Let’s stop eating and get to work right away. It doesn’t matter if you fail. “Anyway, there will be a lot of steel products coming out in the future.”
“…I’m sure you don’t know that your skill level is still lacking.”
“I didn’t think I’d be full after the first drink anyway. “This time, I am satisfied just by seeing the process with my own eyes and keeping it in my mind.”
“…If that’s the case-”
High-grade sectional steel.
Melton nodded when he was told that he could use an item whose value was obviously enormous just for practice purposes, and that he would visually see the process and keep it in his head in order to fill in the lack of skill during the practice process and use it when starting the main work. It was.
I’m sure it’s because I was right.
Anyway, Melton made a decision and walked into the workshop, carrying the bag containing the shaped stones on his shoulder.
“Are you ready to get drunk on the heat, kid?”
“My body is too heat-resistant to be intoxicated by heat.”
“…Damn you.”
Grumbling that he was a moodless brat, Melton disappeared into the workshop.
Jinhyeok laughed heartily at Melton’s childlike appearance and followed after him.
* * *
“Is this a sectional stone? But are you really planning to use this as practice material?”
When I entered the workshop with Melton, I immediately showed Muyoung the sections.
Muyoung, who was examining the minerals imbued with the energy of the Four Emperors, including Magic Iron, reacted immediately.
However, even though Muyoung felt disappointed that expensive steel sheets were only used as practice materials, my thoughts did not change.
‘Anyway, the steel sheets will come together on their own over time. ‘Alchemy will work hard to make it, so it doesn’t matter if it’s a piece of steel.’
Gold Rich pays the money, and Alchemy makes the steel sheets.
In such a situation, there was no reason to waste time worrying about money or steel plates.
However, I asked Muyoung, wondering if there was another problem.
“Have you gathered the other ingredients yet?”
“No, that can’t be. I already have enough ingredients. However, I say this because there are cases where the price of one piece of steel is more expensive than the price of most of them combined.”
As expected, the biggest reason was the reluctance to use an expensive mineral made through alchemy called spherite through practice.
That’s why Muyoung’s answer gave me confidence.
“Then just do it. “It doesn’t matter.”
“…Wait, I’ll bring the ingredients.”
Practice continues.
What I had to worry about was not the needless consumption of spherical stone, but the poor quality of the weapons made with Baal’s recipe.
Therefore, even if it meant losing a huge amount of money, I planned to practice several times.
thud-
“These are ingredients prepared in advance.”
Muyoung went into the warehouse and came back with both hands full of materials.
In addition to expensive minerals such as mithril and adamantium, there were also a lot of by-products such as tendons and bones of various monsters.
“You mean all of this goes into it?”
“You take a little bit from there and mix it all together like an alloy. However, that is not a very large amount. “If you think about it overall, number 2 or 3 is probably the limit.”
For a moment, I stared at the garden of ingredients that was two to three times larger than the bundle I brought with me.
I nodded and agreed when I heard that it wasn’t that much, and immediately threw the firewood into the brazier.
Hwareuk-
“Then let’s get started right away. “There’s no need to play, right?”
As soon as the firewood was thrown in, a flame erupted with intense heat inside the gently burning furnace.
In the hot workshop, I looked at Muyoung and Melton and smiled.
It was time to practice making weapons using Baal’s recipe book.
* * *
“The first task is to make the weapons contained in Baal’s recipe into a single ‘alloy’ by adding sectional steel and other materials.”
Grumble!
His tongue lashes out as if the intense flames will cook his face.
Standing in front of the intense heat, I gritted my teeth and focused on Melton’s words as if I would not be defeated by the heat.
“now!”
“…I’m already putting it in!”
And in response to Melton’s voice, which caught the timing, he harshly responded and threw in the steel plate.
Chii Iik-
I moved my hands busily as I watched the sectional stone thrown into the wildly burning furnace slowly begin to melt.
Mithril, adamantium, bones, tendons, muscles, etc.
Various ingredients were thrown into the furnace at the right time.
“There is a difference in melting temperature, so gradually increase the temperature from low to high. And right now, all the minerals are in harmony with the fluorite! “Take it out!”
“…I told you I knew!”
In the hot workshop, with superhuman concentration, he measured the timing for the minerals to enter, and when he was as sharp as possible, he shouted harshly and took out the plate containing the minerals.
Something strange, made of a mixture of various minerals and by-products of various monsters based on spherite, appeared in the workshop.
“It’s beautiful.”
I was so satisfied with the result in front of me that my frustration from just a moment ago disappeared.
Although the spherical stone was of high quality, not the highest quality, the result was still beautiful enough.
The color of the multi-colored alloy was more brilliant than any other work of art.
“Don’t be stupid, pick up the hammer.”
“Now is the real start. “I will go without stopping, so please follow me.”
However, since they had to show off their movements in seconds, Melton and Muyoung immediately picked up the hammers and called out to me.
Tuk-
A hammer thrown into my hand.
At the same time, the heated alloy was immersed in cold cooling water, and hot smoke filled the workshop.
“Hit!”
Empty!
The cooled alloy lost its mysterious glow and became black.
The alloy that was roughly placed on the steel table made a heavy sound as it collided with the steel table, but to those gathered here, it was an ecstatic sound like an opera.
“The method written in the armor production book states that the cooled alloy is made into a basic armor shape, then melted and made again.”
But no one just listened to the sound.
Melton immediately hit me with an explanation of the next steps –
“Sword, sword, spear, staff, bow, etc. It is an arduous task that requires making more than a dozen weapons one by one, then melting them down and making them again. Are you confident? It may take a day. “I don’t have time to sleep or rest, so can you follow me?”
Muyoung gave a warning along with detailed production steps.
He makes more than a dozen weapons without stopping.
Repeat of melting, making, melting, making.
It means that even if you work hard for 24 hours a day, it may not be enough, that there is no time to rest, that there is no time to sleep.
With all the warnings in my head, I nodded as if it was obvious.
“If you’re going to give up, you never even started in the first place, let’s start.”
“That’s right!”
“Haha! Okay, then let’s get drunk on the heat and the smell of iron.”
earth!
With the cheerful sound of hammering, the production of the first weapon, which would take 24 hours and 2 hours and 28 minutes, began.
* * *
The first was a sword.
An ordinary long sword.
A sword with an appropriate length and appropriate weight.
It took a little over an hour.
Chi-Ik-
The sword containing an hour of hard work went straight to the furnace.
The second was a spear.
Long window.
A spear with a sharp blade on a pole longer than most people.
The spear that Melton, Muyoung, and Jinhyeok combined their efforts was worthy of being called a master singer.
Chi-Ik-
Such windows also did not escape the furnace.
After that, similar things were repeated.
Some weapons were masterful, while others were a bit ordinary.
But whether ordinary or extraordinary, the end was the furnace.
Sword, spear, bow, sword, claw, staff, etc.
The most basic shapes are put into an alloy based on shape rigidity and then melted down again.
By the time it was repeated more than a dozen times.
When I first picked up the hammer, the sun was still shining brightly in the sky.
26 hours.
This meant that Jinhyeok and others had been hammering for a little more than a day.
thud-
The hammer that hasn’t been left in your hand for over a day leaves your hand and falls to the floor.
Just as a swordsman never puts down his sword, a blacksmith also never puts down his hammer no matter how hard it is.
But even so, the three standing here lost the hammer.
Jeok-
If there was a treasured sword among the swords, the hammer they used was worthy of being called the treasured sword of the hammer world, but the hammer that had been abused for over a day eventually lost its name.
When the hammers that left the hand upon completion of the weapon shattered as if they had decided to die all at once.
The three people didn’t pay attention to things like hammers.
“…It’s so hard.”
“Still, it was fun.”
“That means we need to make more of these in the future.”
“…It’s scary to even imagine.”
A black iron ball lying on the table.
The unfinished product before the doppelganger’s core was placed was emitting a black light that seemed to absorb all light on the table.
“It will be possible to confirm without inserting the doppelganger’s core.”
“The doppelganger’s core is a necessary item for Mugu’s growth and further changes. Just like now, the unique characteristics of the steel sheet and your strong will will be enough to bring about enough change.”
The characteristic of hengangseok is that it remembers what is engraved on it.
The stone that became the sword holds that memory.
The shaped stone that became the window carries that memory.
Then, what about the hengangseok that holds the memories of dozens of weapons?
The answer was fixed.
Tub-
Jinhyeok placed his hand on the black iron ball placed on the table and put his strong will towards it.
It was an iron ball that changed its appearance several times over a period of more than a day, but Jinhyeok, who worked with him through the entire process, clearly remembered all the shapes.
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The black iron ball disintegrates.
No, it changes.
The fist-sized iron ball transformed into a long long sword in the blink of an eye.
The first sword I made was a long sword.
“Right now, there is no doppelganger core that can act as software and AI, so the only thing that can change is what we created….”
“If you add the doppelganger core, various variations will be added. “The weapon grows according to your thoughts.”
Jinhyuk, lightly holding the longsword, smiled as Melton and Muyoung continued to speak.
A weapon that stores the memories of more than a dozen weapons and can create an infinite number of additional appearances by adding your own memories to them.
‘Is it a weapon that grows?’
Jinhyeok was confident that the appearance of a growth-type weapon that had never appeared in the tower was just around the corner.
“But it’s inevitable that the quality itself will be a bit poor.”
“It’s hard, you guy.”
“I had a lot of physical problems, so there was nothing I could do. “Age is a problem.”
However, in the end, the weapons that are remembered are those made by Jinhyuk, Melton, and Muyoung.
If they make it crudely, the weapon remembers the crude weapon.
Of course, the weapons that combined their powers were not poor, but they remembered that there were weapons that were of slightly better quality than ordinary ones.
“Then let’s just work every other day. “I will come back in two days with a health recovery potion, a mental power recovery potion, and a stamina potion.”
Therefore, Jinhyeok decided to rely on medicine to help them show off their skills even a little more.
“…This is elder abuse, you bastard!”
“…Huh, even when I was young, I never hit a hammer while taking medicine.”
Of course, it was inevitable that the two people accepted this as meaning that they could just hammer without fatigue or loss of stamina.
It was a moment when the sound of Gongmille echoed not only in the alchemy workshop but also in the blacksmith workshop.
