Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

Weapon, and exploring the store.

[Ace POV],

With 'Weapon' in the item section's search bar, the list of cauldrons on the panel vanished, and a new list appeared.

A wide range of weapons, as well as familiar terms, appeared on the list.

Inferior grade and normal grade.

I didn't see a rare or epic-grade weapon.

Perhaps it's because I'm still at the top of the list.

In the first place, I doubt I'll be able to afford it.

I focused on the list and began searching for a suitable weapon, ignoring those that had Inferior grade listed in their name and concentrating on Normal grade.

My Hunter Recurve Bow and Quiver is barely keeping up with my progress, let alone the inferior grade.

In my storage ring, the DMX-367 DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN and the inferior-grade steel blade are still gathering dust.

So when it came to selecting a proper weapon, I paid special attention.

After a long journey down the list, I came across rare-grade weaponry.

I decided to check one out of curiosity.

It was a rod, a magical rod.

And it was designed for individuals with water attributes, making it unsuitable for me.

I'm guessing the attribute here is for those who have stuff with water magic.

Like my relationship with fire manipulation.

The good news is that I could still redeem it, which meant I could still redeem a certain rare-grade weapon with the remaining free item ticket in my hand, which was good news to me.

The rod, however, was priced at 50 Gold Coins, making me wonder if I had reached the free item ticket limit.

There was also a pattern that I noticed.

In general, inferior-grade weapons are priced from bronze coins to silver coins, whereas normal-grade weapons are priced from silver coins to gold coins, and rare-grade weapons are all priced from gold coins.

I'm starting to think this free item ticket is more valuable than I imagined; unfortunately, I've gone too far, so it's useless to stop and save.

Unfortunately, I had hit the limit of the last free item ticket in my possession because, beginning with weapons worth more than 60 gold coins, the store began asking for two free tickets instead, which I did not have.

So my only alternative was to limit my search to weapons costing less than 60 gold coins.

The good news is that I can still redeem a rare-grade weapon instead of a normal-grade weapon.

My search was relatively short because I knew exactly what I was looking for.

Something of high quality that the current me could use.

And, if it is possible, something that makes use of my flames.

I finally narrowed my options down to this;

[High Rare Grade Tana Twin Blades], [56 Gold Coins] [+]

Twin blades designed specifically to interact with the user's mana.

Infusing mana into the blades will coat them in fire, causing greater damage.

The effect is amplified if the infused mana has a fire attribute.

.......

Looking at the information about the twin blade on the panel, I saw something that was quite familiar.

Not familiar in a way, but the name of the weapon reminded me of something.

Thinking of this, I looked at the ring on the finger of my hand.

This was my storage ring and also my first item and the only epic grade on me.

[Low Epic Grade Storage ring],

A storage ring that was created using unique and priceless materials with the assistance of a skilled alchemist and a space gem.

Has the ability to store objects of any size and weight in another mini space.

Additional Effect: Sightly increases mana.

Limitation: Limited Space.

.......

My storage ring is a low epic grade, however, the twin blade is a high rare grade.

Of course, even with the word "high," it cannot be compared to an epic-grade item.

The two objects' uses and functions may differ, but there is a reason why items are rated, and epic is still higher than rare.

And Alchemist huh?

'Skilled'

When my thoughts started to wander, I shook my head and focused on the twin blades instead.

The twin blade is ideal.

Excellent quality with an added effect.

It also interacts with the user's mana, requiring me to use my mana for something else if I redeem it.

It also works for me since I have a relationship with fire.

Considering these factors, I decided to redeem it.

........

[Redeem 1 free item ticket for [High Rare Grade Tana Twin Blades]?],

[Y/N],

......

When I redeemed the twin blades, the panel in front of me vanished as the item I had just redeemed slowly materialized in front of me with a dim light.

Except for Mia, who was looking at me with what I assumed was intense curiosity, the others in the room ignored me this time.

I turned my attention away from her and onto the twin blades on the ground in front of me.

With them in my hands, I had to admit that I was right about the store.

These blades are unlike anything else I've ever seen.

Though it is not visible unless you look closely, focusing on the sword reveals vein-like markings on the blade.

Strange small lines stretched from the tip of the blades to its shoulder.

The twin blades' hilts were also quite lengthy.

It had bizarre small circles drawn on it as well.

Something in my thoughts that I recognized as formations from the alchemy knowledge.

I also noticed something like a mechanism at the end of each blade that connected the ends of both blades.

And based on the length of the twin blades, I'm guessing it would make something like a staff.

Overall, the outcome is satisfactory.

I returned to the store section after putting the twin blades in my storage ring to see what the other sub selections were.

[Store],

[General], [Knowledge], [Item], [Exchange], [Shop], [Auction],

I'd just looked through the Knowledge and Item sections of the store, so I started looking through the others.

I started with the general section.

There was a search bar here, just like in the item section.

After some exploring, I figured out what the general part was about.

Simply said, it is a mix of the sub choices under store.

It was easier and faster to use the search bar in the general section to find stuff relating to a specific thing.

I also discovered how to gain coins.

It was from the store's Exchange section.

According to the primordial chronicle, as long as it's of value, it will be exchanged for coins through the exchange section.

And the Auction and Shop sections were precisely as they appear.

This time we weren't dealing with the primordial chronicle, but with the people of the world.

In fact, several items were already in both sections, but I didn't delve too deeply when I discovered their general use for the time being.

Looking around the room and at the situation at the shop and auction, I had to agree yet again that one of the remarkable traits of humans is their ability to adapt.

While these thoughts were flowing through my mind, the day's exhaustion eventually caught up with me and I fell asleep unknowingly.

......

'Ugh'

Slowly opening my eyes, I felt the sense of my aching body.

Looking around for a moment, I realized that everything that had happened was not a dream, but rather reality when I saw my surroundings.

Perhaps it was the passing of three years, but there were already hints of green life on the wall.

'It appears that I fell asleep, and based on their positions, it looks that they were maintaining watch but also fell asleep.' That was dangerous. 'Fortunately, nothing occurred,' I thought as I slowly got up, making as little noise as possible, and moved to the side of the window, lifting the curtains a little to see what was going on outside.

But what I saw made me come to a halt.

Zombies.

And there are a lot of them.
