Apocalypse's All-Rounder Mischief

Chapter 5

Apocalypse Day 2, Crafting Armor (1)

The apocalypse is brought about by zombies that suddenly appeared.

Today is the second day since that terrible disaster has come.

But when you wake up one night, the area around the building is not the streets of Seoul that were infested with zombies, but an unfamiliar forest.

‘Where the hell is this place?’

Thankfully, thanks to defeating the goblins, I was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Questions that had been put off for a while to put out the fire first came back to mind and confused Junyoung.

‘What the hell is this forest? And what is outside the forest?’

A situation in which it is not possible to secure visibility of the size of the forest and what lies beyond the forest because of thick fog.

However, it is dangerous to wander around the forest blindly.

You never know where monsters like goblins will come from.

‘Is this another world? Could it be?’

There are many fantasy novels in which the protagonist reincarnated into another world or moved to another world.

It’s a common setting in novels, but what happens in real life?

‘Did this whole building fly to another world?’

Or have other buildings or people on Earth moved with it?

As of now, nothing is known.

First of all, what happened to the family?

father, mother and sister.

Whether you stay in Seoul, where zombies are infested, or you move to such an unfamiliar world, it is equally dangerous.

‘after! Please let nothing happen!’

It is a miracle that the whole family is safe in this situation.

However, there are miracles in the world.

‘okay. My father is not the one to be easily defeated.’

My father said he was from the Special Forces.

You didn’t tell me the name of the unit, so I doubt it’s real.

He is quite strong and long.

‘I don’t know if it’s just one zombie, but it’s a problem because there are a lot of zombies.’

But there is no end to negative thoughts.

‘You will be alive. I’m still alive.’

Instead of worrying about your family, you should be more concerned about your own survival.

Rather, now the family is worried about Junyoung.

As long as he is alive, he will surely be able to meet his family.

‘okay. Everyone will be safe.’

It’s not that I’m not worried about this, but it’s still not a good enough situation to be concerned about right now.

‘For now, let’s secure more food, water, and weapons as planned.’

Even though I made a flamethrower, after 12 shots it’s over.

You’ll need to get more lighters and insect killers to craft additional flamethrowers.

Or any other weapon.

‘I’ve been looking for room 301, so should I go to room 303?’

Immediately, Junyoung headed to Room 303, looking around while holding the flamethrower.

‘Still locked.’

Junyoung, standing in front of the front door of room 303, rang his bell, just in case.

Ding Dong!

No response.

He knocked hard on the door.

Bang!

“Are you there?”

However, there is no pretense of popularity that is felt inside.I didn’t expect anyone to be there, but I just checked it just in case I didn’t know.

‘Here later.’

The front door of Room 303 is locked and there is no way to open it from the outside.

It’s possible if you break the door.

‘Before that, let’s find the broken doors first.’

This multi-family house is a four-story building with three units on each floor.

There are also 2 in the basement.

Total number 14.

So far, Junyoung has only looked at issues 301 and 302.

‘All four floors are locked.’

The same is true for basement B101 and B102.

Then, among the broken doors, the places that Junyoung has not yet looked at are rooms 103, 201, 202, and 203.

‘Let’s hurry.’

If you leave it as it is, monsters may come in and sweep it all away.

Immediately, Junyoung moved all the rice, ramen, canned food, and bottled water from each room to room 302.

‘I don’t need frozen food because it’s spoiled anyway.’

Fortunately, there are quite a few chocolate bars, energy bars, and various dry foods in each house.

Doenjang and soy sauce should be stored in a cool place, so bring them all.

Condiments must also be carefully considered.

The storage space is sufficient.

Of the three rooms in Room 302, except for one room that will be used as a bedroom, the other two rooms can be used as storage.

‘By the way, what are you doing in someone else’s house?’

for any reason.

No matter how justified, it is clear that Junyoung is robbing someone else’s house.

‘I can’t help it.’

I still can’t get used to this kind of thing.

Still, Junyoung diligently carried it around like an ant taking food to a burrow.

Gradually, there were also instructions.

Not only food, but also laptops, golf clubs, hammers and other tools.

It can also be used as a miscellaneous crafting material.

Then, unexpected things were discovered in Room 202.

‘Five! Those are mountaineering gear.’

Tents and backpacks, portable burners, 14 barrels of butane gas, lanterns and bulk batteries, field shovels, climbing sticks, and more.

‘This is great.’

These are the most useful items in an apocalyptic situation.

In particular, be sure to pack a hiking package, including a tent, in case you have to leave the building in case of emergency.

Continuing, Junyoung also brought things like jumpers and blankets.

‘Do we need books too?’

In issue 201, over 1,000 comics alone were piled up, and in issue 203 there were hundreds of books on various economics and culture.

‘It’s heavy, but let’s move it.’

Maybe you die of boredom rather than of starvation or being hit by a monster.

A world without internet or TV.

In this case, having a book will help you a lot in overcoming loneliness.

‘In the worst case, it can be used as waste paper.’

Junyoung brought all the books to room 302.

But there are still many things left.

‘Should I bring cosmetics and perfumes?’

Some of the cosmetics are used by someone, and there are new ones that are still unopened.

‘Well, let’s take it all together.’

I don’t know how I’m going to use it, so I take everything I can.

‘I seem to be getting better as I keep stealing.’

At first, I thought that I was stealing, so I was a little skeptical, but now I don’t have that.

He just thinks that he’s taking things he doesn’t own anyway.

It seems that almost a day has been moving like that.

The day was getting dark.

‘after! Hard.’

Did you work too hard?

My back is about to break.

Still, when I saw the junk piled up in the room, I was somehow proud of it.

I took 7 lighters, a weapon material, and 5 insect killers.

Most of it is food.

‘That’s enough to last a few months.’

I don’t want to starve to death right now.

The problem is what happens after that.

‘Where do we go to get food when we run out of food?’

Of course, there are still untouched houses in this building.

‘But there may be landlords there.’

The problem is that there is no sign of knocking on the door.

Of course I understand.

You never know when people will turn into robbers, so it’s natural to be wary.

‘I can’t be hiding like that forever.’

If there are any survivors, it is wise to cooperate with each other.

If you want to deal with monsters that come in swarms, it’s advantageous to have a lot of numbers here too.

‘Anyway, it is not yet forcibly opening the door.’

Let’s just wait a few days.

If there is no sign by then, there is a high probability that there are no survivors in the house.

Then you can break the door and enter.

‘Because now we have gathered some materials.’

The reason why I have collected all the junk that seems useless.

That’s because I thought maybe I could get a new crafting method through exploration.

‘research!’

Before that, let’s start exploring.

I looked to see if there was anything unusual among the materials I gathered.

[There are no exploreable objects nearby.]

‘It’s just not okay.’

Then you have to look forward to making something and showing off your exploration and dexterity.

‘I have a weapon, so should I make some armor?’

With a strength and stamina of 1, Junyoung will be seriously injured if she gets even one hit by a goblin or zombie.

If you have useful armor, you will have that much advantage in survival.

But how can you make armor?

‘Even if you make it roughly anyway, it will become fraudulent if you just open the recipe.’

going to try using that.

Junyoung entered the room and brought a hoodie out of the pile of clothes on one side.

‘What if I put something like a thick plate on this hoodie?’

Through the quest, something like how to make sturdy armor might come up.

‘If possible, iron armor would be better.’

What would be suitable for an iron plate?

As I looked around, something caught my eye.

‘frying pan! That’s it.’

A frying pan made of solid stainless steel is just right.

But how do you attach that to a hoodie?

‘It’s okay to paste it roughly.’

You don’t have to do it professionally.

It’s because the production method was created by just imitating it.

Junyoung, who learned the art of exploration through the previous two types of production, put a smile of conversion on his lips.

‘Phew! It’s done.’

After a while, Junyoung succeeded in attaching one frying pan to the front and back of the hoodie.

It’s just glued on by a horse, and I just rolled it up using another piece of cloth and fixed it.

It can’t be called a piece of armor at all, and it doesn’t look like it’s easy to wear this.

But at that moment, a voice was heard.

[You have succeeded in crafting a frying pan.][This is an object that can be explored.]

‘Oh oh! also.’

As expected.

Junyoung called for delight.

[Would you like to explore the subject?]

“Yes.”

[Search was successful.][You have obtained the recipe for making a frying pan armor.][The recipe for crafting pan armor has been added to your crafting list.][Production: Frying Pan Sanggap]

-Ingredients: 2 frying pans, top, 2 pieces of cloth

-Cost: 1 coin

-Production time: 10 seconds

‘done!’

Now, if you use this recipe to make a frying pan armor, you will be able to make pretty plausible armor.

However.

[Currently, your exploration ability can accommodate up to 3 recipes.][Additional recipe registration is not possible after that.][If you want to register a new recipe, please raise the level of Quest (Lv1).]

Unexpected content was heard in the voice.

‘this!’

It seems that it was not possible to register an infinite number of recipes.

In quest (Lv1), there is only a maximum of three.

‘Oh! Why didn’t you tell me about this in the first place?’

it’s not funny

If I had known that only 3 could be registered, I would have registered the recipe more carefully.

【Recipe List 3/3】

-simple toilet

-Simple flamethrower

-Frying Pan Armor

You won’t be disappointed though.
