I Became A Mechanic - Chapter 90: The Grave
Chapter 90: The Grave
The system has been in existence for 41 years. The most famous alchemist of that time was, after all, American Olivia.
As an earth wizard, she became an alchemist by chance and had been working on making it for over 30 years.
So far, she has created a dozen homunculus and about thirty famous golems.
Among them, the most famous golem was Umzakan, made from the soul stone of a unique+ grade golem boss, and it has been said that there is no golem stronger than that in the world for over ten years.
After Rudin left, Jun-woo looked at the remodeling records that she had written.
It was a record that most of the body was changed from a homunculus made of titanium to Adamantium in cooperation with a blacksmith.
As expected, there was a record that the stats improved.
Most of the upper body could not be touched, and the arms and legs were replaced.
Even Jun-woo thought there would be no other parts to be remodeled other than that.
If Leon and Rudin were remodeled, both arms and legs would be made into mithril.
If it had been made correctly from the beginning, Leon’s stats would have been a little higher than now, but at that time, he lacked skills.
If it were correctly made from the beginning, Leon would have a stat difference of about 3 to 4%, so if it were significant, there would be a slight difference in numbers.
[Level has risen.]
While reading the book, Jun-woo’s Level rose.
Level 101 with this.
The quest had to be done before 110, and although he had plenty of time, he wanted to hurry up.
The quest’s reward is an intermediate book of magic engineering, and 20 stats have been added.
While he was looking at some more related books, his smartphone vibrated.
-Ding.
[Benjamin Auction House, Unique Soul Stone Registration]
It was a text message because of the notification settings.
Jun-woo immediately searched for the soul stone.
[Kakan’s Soul Stone]
-Class: Unique
– Race: Golem
-Level: 100
-Stats: Strength: 170 Dexterity: 152 Intellect: 50 Stamina: 223
-Description: Contains the soul of a golem.
-Item value: 147,000,000,000
A golem made from the soul stone of a golem without a name could be placed in and removed from the item window according to the user’s will.
However, a soul stone with a name could not be put into the item window.
There were several races in the soul stone, and among them, the golem race could be sold because the creator could change the owner of the user once.
However, only if it is a golem with an Epic+ rating or lower.
This is a unique grade golem that cannot be sold.
If you make it, you will have to buy eight items and use them for maintenance, but it was a job to give birth to a golem who would use the power to go beyond Eumeria.
‘Eumeria, Leon… And one more… ….’
There was one thing he came to know after gaining the knowledge of the basics of magic engineering: the number of golems with a unique rank or higher that could be maintained was 1 out of 80 intellect.
Jun-woo did not know whether it applied to the homunculus, a soul stone of a unique grade or higher.
However, considering that three homunculi were living next to Olivia and two golems with a unique rank or higher, it seemed that 80 intellect was applied similarly.
In the case of Jun-woo, his current intelligence was 448, so he could keep it up to the fifth generation.
There was enough gold that was not consumed, and a unique-grade soul stone showed up, so Jun-woo thought about making it.
The race of the soul stone is a golem.
The difference between a humanoid golem called a homunculus, and a race golem was not much other than whether they had intelligence or not.
Golems were the least intelligent of all races.
If he made it, he would continue to follow Jun-woo and protect Jun-woo according to orders.
If I had a bodyguard, he thought he would feel less sorry than Leon and Eumeria, who suffered in many ways.
-Ding.
[Jeong Hye-Yeon: Boss, the unique soul stone has been registered at the Benjamin Auction House.]
[Lee Jun-woo: Confirmed.]
[Jeong Hye-Yeon: Yes!]
Jun-woo contacted the Benjamin Sales Office.
The contact method was an application messenger with high security.
[Anonymous: I want to buy a registered unique soul stone.]
[Agent Benjamin: Please wait a moment, I will connect you to the person in charge.]
Soon the messenger arrived.
[Agent Benjamin: Hello, are you buying Kakan’s Soul stone?]
[Anonymous: Yes, I think there was an extra 9.2 billion won next to the price. Is it an additional amount?]
[Agent Benjamin: Yes, that’s right, since the price of Soul Stones has risen since Lewis appeared.]
[Anonymous: Is it possible to negotiate additional money?]
[Agent Benjamin: It’s complicated. Besides, I don’t think that’s possible. The registered amount is based on various circumstances. If it doesn’t sell, the additional fee will go down, so I guess you can wait and buy it at the right price.]
Unique-grade soul stones were a high rarity.
Sales have been going well lately, probably because of him.
[Anonymous: I see. I want to buy it as soon as possible; do you know when it will be possible?]
[Agent Benjamin: Are you in Korea?]
[Anonymous: Yes.]
[Benjamin Counselor: The Benjamin Buyer will contact you.]
After a while, the phone vibrated.
[Benjamin Korea Buyer: When is the best time to trade?]
[Anonymous: As soon as possible.]
[Benjamin Korea Buyer: Are you okay tomorrow at 8 pm?]
[Anonymous: 9 pm, please.]
[Benjamin Korea Buyer: I see. Where would you like to trade?]
[Anonymous: Macheon Station Sea Bream Cafe.]
[Benjamin Korea Buyer: Please show the gold used for the last trade. Please use a notepad to write DD Kakan along with the gold bar and take a picture.]
Jun-woo wrote the words DD Kakan on paper, took out 140 billion gold, took a picture, and sent it.
[Benjamin Korea Buyer: Confirmed. Then I’ll see you at the meeting place tomorrow. Please let me know if there are any changes.]
[Anonymous: I see.]
The appointment was set for tomorrow at 9 pm, but it seemed to be a soul stone from Asia.
When creating a golem, the cooldown of the blueprint is of high value, so the maximum cooldown applied when creating Leon, 500 hours, would be used.
Production using the blueprint would be stopped for about 21 days, and the amount of gold consumed for production would exceed 200 billion.
He thought it would be good to go hunting during the period when blueprints could not be produced due to the cooldown.
Jun-woo was ignorant of where and how to go about high-level hunting grounds, so he was worried.
Jun-woo thought about who he could ask for help and thought of Walker.
He was a man belonging to Fabregas, and his estimated Level was unique, and his Level was level 110.
He would have known a high level of hunting ground, and, above all, if it was Walker, Jun-woo was a person he could trust.
[Junwoo Lee: Excuse me, can I get some help?]
With one text message, Walker willingly came to the Aegis building.
“What do you need to?”
“I have a hunting quest. I need to hunt, but I don’t know where to go. I was wondering if you could help.”
“Oh, there are several places. What do you want to gain from hunting? Skills, materials, gold.”
“I’m trying to get the mana shield you mentioned earlier.”
“You’re talking about skills. However, the skill book does not come out easily. It will depend on the grade, but Epic+ takes at least a month, at most a year or more.”
The item did not come out very often.
Moreover, there was no promise of when the desired skill book would be released.
“Yeah, I know.”
“Then let’s talk slowly. Considering several circumstances.”
Jun-woo and Walker talked about hunting grounds for quite a long time.
* * *
The terrain of the orc village inhabited by Naga orcs, which Jun-woo swept away, was devastated.
Kim Deok-cheol captured the Naga Orcs on the tangled terrain.
He asked a guild member who hunted with me when he could afford it.
“But why did the Master catch the Naga Orcs?”
There were three orcs here.
One was the lack of muscular green skin, the other was the high-nosed tribe, and the Naga was the relatively less athletic and less hospitable tribe and were the weakest orc tribes here.
“Is it because of the quest?”
“Well… ….”
Kim Deok-cheol knew it was because of Jun-woo’s quest, but he didn’t say anything.
The five Aegis guild members continued hunting until late at night, and after sleeping in the vicinity, they continued hunting the next day.
Shortly after lunch, Jun-woo came back.
The guild members retreated to some extent from the place they were hunting.
Jun-woo alone felt that the orcs here were not enough.
A guild member watching Jun-woo’s battle from a distance stuck out his tongue.
“It’s great. How can such destructive power come out? … .”
“I know… ….”
Kim Deok-cheol thought everything, including the Dark Star, had happened because Jun-woo became a unique alchemist.
However, the ability Junwoo showed was never at the level of uniqueness.
‘Even then, you were already awake… ….’
It was Kim Deok-cheol who remembered the time when he entered the hidden dungeon.
They watched Jun-woo from a distance for a while and then started hunting again from a distance.
Pop!
Wow!
Even from a distance, the sound of Jun-woo’s explosion could not be stopped.
“ha-ha… It’s creepy if you hit something like that… ….”
The explosion lasted several hours today.
All the trees that made up the forest were smashed, and the thick reed field was also turned upside down to the extent that it was difficult to recognize the shape.
The area where the explosion occurred was hollowed out.
Yoshimura, who was watching, said as if wondering.
“But why does that guy seem to catch orcs only with his explosive skill?”
Jun-woo was a defensive robot, collecting orcs and detonating a self-destruct robot, mainly inflicting wide-area damage.
Murata was also puzzled by that part but answered briefly.
“It must be a quest.”
“The quest that failed?”
“Maybe.”
“That guy is awesome too. If you fail, it’s over. What do you do when you return to a hunting ground that doesn’t even match your Level… ….”?
“You must have been to a place where there is a higher probability that quests will occur for him than anywhere else.”
“Will it happen?”
“No one knows that.”
Wow!
Yoshimura, who was watching, opened his mouth again.
“I’ve felt it before, but that skill’s destructive power is great. The Earth is shaking.”
Yoshimura felt his body vibrate and slammed the floor down once.
Thud!
“And the ground here is fragile. Compared to the plaza of the Earth.”
Murata nodded as if in agreement.
The terrain around Jun-woo was lower than in other places.
Orcs continued to flock to Jun-woo while stepping on the pile of dirt, and Jun-woo took it out himself.
Yoshimura, who looked at the clock once and looked at Jun-woo again, saw something suspicious.
A white stone could be seen through the sunken soil on the other side.
“Yes?”
This place was mostly made of soil; even with stones, it was ocher-colored.
A white stone that stood out of nowhere caught Yoshimura’s view.
For a moment, Yoshimura looked at the stone.
The soil from the explosion was lifted, and the white color increased.
It felt like a wall of square white stones stacked against each other.
“Tomb?”
There were often graves found by miners digging into the ground.
“What? Brother, that one.”
“Is it the boss’s tomb?”
“It could be… I guess you haven’t seen him?”
“Let’s go.”
The two ran to Jun-woo.
When they arrived, Jun-woo opened the item window and looked at the time.
It was not yet time to end the hunt to go.
Yoshimura said, standing next to him.
“Look over there.”
A white stone was exposed under the ground that had been dug for about 2m.
“Why is that?”
“I don’t know, but it could be a boss grave.”
Jun-woo asked as if wondering.
“What is it? What can I do?”
“There may be a boss inside. An undead boss. It may not be there, but when miners find something like this, they don’t get in easily.”
“Are you at the level to ask for support?”
“I don’t. No matter how strong you are, the boss level is here.”
Jun-woo went there with them.
“Would you like me to slay it?”
“No, I will.”
Jun-woo nodded his head.
Yoshimura put the sword into the seam of the wall.
????????
As the sword entered, he twisted the blade with force.
A square stone, the size of a human body, was pushed out.
Kicking it aside, Yoshimura dug up one more stone.
After digging up the six stones that way, he could see the inside of the black vision.
“There seems to be no boss. What do you want in there?”
Yoshimura turned on a magic light to illuminate the interior.
In the center of the square space, a relatively large skeleton of a skeleton was lying on it.
And around it was placed titanium, adamantium mithril, and others.
“What kind of ores are there that are so many?”
Even if it wasn’t, it was an amount likely to be several tens of billions.
Jun-woo strongly felt that if he had completed the Level 70 quest, he might have told him to find it here.
He threw himself into space to look closely at what was there.
Swish-
Jun-woo’s soles touched the floor.
