Absolute Necromancer Chapter 165

Earth! Taaang! earth!

Gold Rich Workshop.

In a place filled with the best equipment for blacksmiths, the sound of hammering did not stop all week long.

In the case of making weapons based on Baal’s recipe, it was done once every two days, but Jinhyeok went to the workshop and practiced metallurgy without a single day of rest.

The result of that effort was the hammering sound that now resonates throughout the workshop.

earth!

After the heavy hammering sound, the hammering sound was not heard again.

“It’s complete.”

Jinhyeok nodded as he looked at the long sword with a smooth sword body in front of him.

Finished.

It was an even more emotional experience because it was not just finished, but was made by perfectly following the production instructions selected from various production books stored in the workshop.

[Cha Jin-hyuk’s long sword]

Rating: Epic.

This is a perfect longsword for someone who has just become a blacksmith.

Mithril was mixed to increase mana conductivity, and adamantium was mixed to increase rigidity.

* Mana conduction rate 125%, skill: Harden available, strength + 45, agility + 43, stamina + 22

“It seems that good ingredients are used, so it has a good effect even without any technical additions.”

A week ago.

The first person to pick up a hammer made an incredible long sword.

Jinhyeok created a weapon that would easily fetch hundreds of thousands of gold just by putting it on the auction house right away.

Of course, considering that he spent half a day making this, hunting was beneficial to Jinhyuk.

It was natural because not only money but also growth was possible.

But Jinhyuk was satisfied.

“This will be helpful in making weapons.”

Weapon production using Baal’s recipe has been going on every two days for a week now.

The weapons that were often more mediocre than outstanding were due to Melton and Muyoung’s fatigue, but the biggest reason was Jinhyuk’s own shortcomings.

The two tried hard to hide it, but Jinhyuk was not unaware of it.

“…Tsk, it’s not very pleasant to be a burden to others.”

As the work progresses –

Jinhyuk keenly felt his own shortcomings.

That’s why Jinhyeok went to the workshop every day and picked up a hammer.

Normal, Rare.

Sometimes, he created trash that didn’t even have a status window, but in the end, Jinhyuk succeeded.

“Epic. “Have we barely reached the ‘reasonable’ level of Melton or Muyoung?”

Epic.

Basic, Normal, Rare, Epic, Unique, Legendary.

Although it is a mid-level grade, its power is by no means mid-level.

Considering that most climbers only have rare weapons, the excellence of Jinhyeok’s weapon cannot be overstated.

Especially considering that the critical difference between a craftsman and an ordinary blacksmith is the production of unique weapons, which is the next level of epic.

“Now it’s time to start production.”

All preparations were completed within a week.

I have already attempted to make weapons three times, and the quality has improved each time.

And just today.

It was time to start producing ‘real’ weapons using the highest grade of sectional steel.

* * *

“I’m shaking.”

“That’s not right, but I also feel the same way, so it’s not my place to say anything.”

Familiar workshop, familiar hammer, familiar equipment.

Although everything was familiar, all of this was unfamiliar to Melton and Muyoung.

To be precise, the production of the weapon that we were about to begin with was unfamiliar, so things that were originally very familiar felt unfamiliar.

The production of weapons today was so important and unfamiliar that even artisan-level blacksmiths were nervous.

“The highest grade of section steel has a different melting temperature and strength from the higher grade. “It will probably be more difficult labor this time.”

“If it doesn’t work out, you can discard what you made this time and try again, so don’t worry too much.”

In order to relieve their tension, Jinhyeok discussed discarding the weapons they were going to make today as if nothing had happened.

If something really bad came out, all I had to do was make it again and again as I had practiced so far.

“…You know how much money goes into this production, right?”

“I know. Even if you subtract the price of the steel, it costs about 10 to 20 million gold. Still, creating the perfect item is more important. There is trial and error in every attempt. Even if it fails, you can rebuild it if you spend money, so don’t worry and let’s get started.”

“…Okay, it’s not my money anyway, so let’s make it easier!”

“…Do you really think that’s true? Ha, I don’t know. “Let’s do as you said and start from the beginning.”

Jinhyeok’s way of relieving tension was quite effective.

Melton took the attitude that if something was really wrong, he could just make it again, and Muyoung shook his head but agreed.

Anyway, as long as you had the core of the doppelganger, you could make as many weapons as hardware as long as you had the money, and their supplier was Gold Rich, who had the most money in the tower.

And even if it failed, the weapons I made didn’t go anywhere.

You can give it to other colleagues, or sell it if you don’t like it.

The weapon, which contained various levels of weapons, was a weapon loved by all climbers.

After shaking off their tension, the three people finally lit the brazier.

* * *

Hwareuk-

The brazier catches fire, and heat slowly fills the workshop.

Basic 3,000 degrees.

Of all the materials used to make weapons, the lowest melting temperature was 3,000 degrees, so it was inevitable.

The temperature ranges from a minimum of 3,000 degrees to a maximum of 4,000 degrees, and the instantaneous temperature reaches up to 5,000 degrees.

This was the temperature at which the skin cooked, not burned.

Even Jinhyuk couldn’t stay fine in this temperature.

“Now, it’s a fire resistance potion.”

“…I never thought I’d drink a potion, a fire resistance potion, just to be able to live a life of hammering.”

“Don’t say anything, just drink it quickly. Do you know how many other things you should drink besides that?”

“…Damn it, it’s only going to get so dirty.”

Physical strength recovery potion, mental strength recovery potion, stamina recovery potion.

There were things I needed to drink besides the fire resistance potion.

The good news is that these products are made by Alchemy, so they are effective, so even a small amount can provide sufficient results.

If it weren’t for that, the three of us would have had to drink up to 2 liters in one sitting.

“Wow…I’m throwing up….”

“1L…I’m dying. “I absolutely have to finish it today.”

“…I agree.”

It was reduced by almost half, but the problem was that even 1L was not that much less.

In the end, Jinhyeok, who was waiting for the two nauseating people to calm down, soon got up and left.

“Let’s begin.”

The brazier was already hot.

Even if you hit the minerals right now, they will melt completely.

Thus began the first part of Jinhyeok’s armor production: melting the materials.

* * *

The ingredients melted quickly.

The three people, who were able to overcome heat resistance and fatigue thanks to various potions, quickly melted the ingredients and mixed them up.

Empty!

After cooling the mixed ingredients, the three threw them on the steel table and each and every one of them grabbed their hammers and hit the lump that looked like an alloy.

earth! earth! Taaang! earth!

The mass gradually changed along with the cheerful sound of hammering.

It gradually became flatter and longer, and eventually it became the long sword that I had made several times.

After that, it was a continuous repetition, just like when practicing.

Put it in the furnace, turn it into lumps again, and then pound the lumps to create new weapons.

Jinhyeok knew how tiring it was to do the repetitive work, which took more than a day, so he hammered away at even sparing the energy to speak.

earth! Taaang!

After the sword was the spear, after the spear was the sword, after the sword was the shield –

Even in the midst of endless hammering and heat, the three clearly knew what they should make.

Through several exercises, we not only made weapons, but also shields and light armor.

“Phew, I guess it’s over now.”

After a full day had passed, Jinhyuk, who had engraved all the weapons into a lump, wiped the sweat from his forehead and exhaled.

It was the same for others as well.

Clang~

The hammer in their hands was rolling around on the floor, just like it did when they were practicing, and the three looked at a bracelet on the table with exhausted faces.

“…If I make that a few more times, I’ll easily catch one person.”

“I feel like I’m going to throw up…I think I’m dehydrated. “I need to get some rest.”

The essence of what I had been pounding for over a day was contained in that bracelet.

That’s why the two complained of fatigue and leaned against the wall.

However, only Jinhyuk could not take his eyes off the bracelet in front of him.

“Now all we have to do is insert the doppelganger’s core here and it’s complete.”

“It’s complete. It was more perfect than anything we’d ever made. “Each piece of weapon was unique, and some of it could have achieved legendary status if it had been a little harder.”

“If you add the doppelganger’s core, the grade will be confirmed…I’m sure it will be at least Legendary level.”

Legendary.

Considering that the level of the soul transfer skill that allowed Jinhyeok to be where he is now was Legendary, this means that one item is worth as much as one life.

Of course, Jinhyeok had no intention of being satisfied with that.

“If I infuse energy into this, the energy that changed iron ore into magic iron, what do you think would happen?”

“…!”

“…That’s reckless. “I’m not even sure I’ll ever be able to make something like that again, so are you going to do something that could completely ruin it?”

This means that the energy of the Four Emperors will be infused into the bracelet.

Muyoung and Melton could not contain their surprise.

This is because it was an unconventional thing that, if done incorrectly, could upset the balance and not even make it unique, let alone legendary.

That’s why Melton warned.

It’s something that can ruin a treasure that can never be made again.

However, it was unfortunate for Melton that it was Jinhyuk who heard those words.

“There is nothing that can’t be done. “You just have to take some risk for the best.”

“…If you really want to liven things up, I recommend adding it with the doppelganger core. It will only be one chance, but…That will increase your chances of success. “It wouldn’t be so bad if I could take the risk like you said.”

“…The core of the doppelgänger – okay, if you don’t gamble on such an outstanding finished product, when on earth will you?”

Jinhyeok was a man who did not hesitate to gamble in order to make an item that would become a treasure that would never be in the tower again, even if he quietly inserted the core of the doppelganger, into something superior.

That’s why he was able to do such a ridiculous thing as push the core of the round doppelganger taken out of subspace into the bracelet.

“Chajinhyeokryu.”

And that wasn’t the end.

As he said, Jinhyeok used his own ability to bestow the energy of the Four Emperors on the bracelet in front of him.

“Chapter 1 – Coin Generation. Devil Coin, Holy Coin, Giant Coin, Dragon Coin.”

A total of four coins are piled up like a mountain.

At the same time, Jinhyuk’s complexion also turned pale.

It was only natural that the four energies were drawn to their limits and turned into coins.

The coins, which were created with the intention of sucking everything out of Jinhyuk, piled up on top of the bracelet that was imbued with the doppelganger’s core.

But it didn’t just pile up.

Clap-crack-crack-crack-crack!

The coin at the bottom.

So, the coins that were in contact with the bracelet were absorbed into the bracelet with an eerie sound.

One, two, four, eight-

The rate of absorption becomes faster and faster, and eventually, the rate of absorption becomes faster than the rate of creation.

Jinhyuk stopped generating coins with a pale face.

No, rather than stopping, I had no choice because I no longer had the energy to make coins.

There was nothing Jinhyeok could do other than anxiously watch the coins piled up like that slowly being absorbed into the bracelet.

Tick ​​tock-

When the clock in the workshop is filled with the sound of ticking.

Fuwaaaaaaa!

The energy of four colors burst out from the bracelet that absorbed all the coins.

“…Is it a failure?”

“No, success.”

When Melton sensed failure due to the bursting energy, Muyoung shook his head and was confident of success.

And the correct answer is-

Pusssss-

It was Muyoung’s.

The bursting energy of contemplation collapsed and seeped into the bracelet again.

Hahaha!

Jinhyeok grinned as he looked at the bracelet that gave off dark yet brilliant colors and picked it up.

At the same time, a surprising message from the system blinded Jinhyeok’s eyes.

[For the first time in the tower, you have produced ‘unique’ grade armor.]

[As a reward for producing ‘unique’ grade weapons, I received the title ‘Unique Blacksmith.’]

[Mugu’s name does not exist yet. Please name Mugu.]

Top first.

Jinhyuk smiled brightly at the fact that he received a new title along with those words that made his heart pierce.

But even for a moment-

When asked to name Mugu, Jinhyuk frowned slightly and then blurted out.

“There are a lot of changes now, but…Someday, it will contain ten thousand changes, and since I first embraced the ‘pure source’ that I will move forward with, it would be good to have ten thousand changes.”

Manbyeonhonwongi (萬變混元器).

A weapon imbued with ten thousand changes and soulful desires.

To be honest, I thought there was no name like this.

That was actually the case.

[…] …It’s a cool name.]

[The unique weapon, Manbyeonhonwongi (萬變混元器), will be recorded in the ‘Tower of Achievements’.]

[Please tell us the name you wish to register.]

A name that made even the system nod its head.

And Jinhyeok shook his head with the message that it was not enough to be listed in the Tower of Achievements.

“Leave it blank. “I have no intention of bragging about having a unique weapon.”

The Tower of Achievement gives merit regardless of whether the name is revealed or not.

However, if he revealed his name, others would know that he had a unique level weapon, so there was no reason to reveal his name.

[Has confirmed.]

[The achievement ‘The first person to create a unique weapon in the tower’ will be left blank.]

[Once again, sincere congratulations.]

After the system’s message of congratulations until the end, Jinhyeok’s eyes were filled with mixed messages of surprise and congratulations from those he was seeing for the first time and those he was familiar with.

[The pinnacle of all evil celebrates you.]

[The pinnacle of all evil looks at your bracelet and makes a subtle expression.]

[The nine-tailed fox frowns slightly as he looks at your bracelet.]

[The God of Lightning takes notice of it, saying it is a good bracelet.]

[King Mifu rubs his eyes and compares the memory in his head with your bracelet.]

[The greedy dragon glares at the bracelet with his eyes flashing.]

[The greedy dragon wags its tail and wants the bracelet.]

[The owner of the sky looks at you with a disapproving look.]

[An angel abandoned by heaven looks at your bracelet with a kind and subtle face.]

It was the first time in my life that I had received a large number of messages, and at the same time, Sandalphone was full of messages from people who couldn’t even hand out their business cards.
