87. Episode 87

After the sparring with Kang Han-cheol, Sewoon took Park Jung-pil out of the base and arrived at the village.

It’s important to find ancestor players, but there was something I had to do first.

“This way, right?”

“How many jjambab I cooked in the village! Just trust me!”

Looking around, I see quite a few people.

players and residents. You could tell the difference between the two beings just by looking at their clothes.

The players were either wearing the minimum amount of armor, perhaps out of caution from the tutorial, or even carrying at least one dagger.

In contrast, the residents were strolling the streets in casual clothes, humming with carefree expressions.

It was a look befitting the first floor, which is said to be safe.

‘Come to think of it, what will become of the residents?’

The residents here are not as convenient as the NPCs in the game.

Literally residents. Unlike the player, he could not receive the protection of the system, but he was definitely a living creature living in the tower.

If something happened a month later, of course, they too would have no choice but to suffer.

however… … .

‘It’s too fine.’

The buildings in the village that I could see right away looked so fine.

People also seem to have no worries like the plants in the greenhouse.

I don’t know what kind of disaster that annihilates the players on the 1st floor once a year, but it would be hard to avoid them too.

“Pil Jung. Just give me one piece of information.”

“yes! Just talk!”

“Ask people if there is anything special that happens here once a year. What happens a month after the player comes in.”

“Just leave it to me! There are quite a few old men I’ve become close with, so it won’t be long!”

“okay. I’ll find the way myself. This way, right?”

“yes!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Park Jung-pil left. Except for the occasional weird thing, he’s a pretty usable guy after all.

As he walked down the street with that thought in mind, Sewoon heard a sharp metal sound through his sensitive hearing.

KANG, KANG!

‘Looks like we’re almost there.’

The metallic sound of hitting iron with a hammer and the warm heat felt even though it hadn’t arrived yet.

It was the only smithy that existed in the town on the first floor.

However, there were few things that could be requested from the smithy on the 1st floor, even if it was a smithy.

In the first place, the first floor was a peaceful area, so the smithy was specialized in making farming tools and traps, not weapons, and their skills weren’t that great.

But the reason Se-Woon came to this place… … .

“Old man.”

“Oh, who is this! It’s been a while!”

Diablo Clan’s only blacksmith. It was to meet Ko Chang-seok.

I looked around the base yesterday and thought I couldn’t see Ko Chang-seok, but when I asked Yoo Seo-ah, I heard that he was staying at the blacksmith’s in the village.

‘Well, until now, it’s been difficult to call it blacksmithing properly.’

Until now, he had been in charge of all the Diablo Clan’s equipment, but like his twin sisters, it was only an expedient using basic tools he bought with public money.

He had never experienced proper blacksmithing with fire and metal.

At least, I signed a contract with Veris, the 28th demon king, and became accustomed to the power of the constellation and was able to use various methods, but even so, it would be different from hammering at a real forge.

“I’m sorry I couldn’t come to see you off! There is also a fixed period of use here, so the time was a little ambiguous.”

“it’s okay. You still attend the party.”

“What is the old man going to do while the young people are playing? You have to work hard for something like this.”

“What are you talking about? How many times did Areum and Daun find the elder?”

“is it? hahahaha! When I look at them, I feel like I am looking at my granddaughter.”

Ko Chang-seok smiled shyly and roughly wiped the metal powder off his face with his sleeve.

Looking around, there were already completed works lined up.

I just checked a few of them.

[ Thorn Armor ]

Category: Armor

Grade: C-

Description: Thorn armor made by an excellent blacksmith using monster materials and high-quality iron ore.

Ability: 1. Iron – In addition to basic defense, defense increases by an additional 10%.

2. Sharp Bone Spike – When blocking a melee attack, 10% of the damage is reflected back to the enemy.

3. Scar – Attack power increases by 10%.

Most of them are C-class items.

Items made by players on the 1st floor are beyond grade C, and if the powers on the upper floors saw it, they would have salivated and proposed recruitment.

Besides, ‘Scar’, an ability common to all items.

This power, which is common to both weapons and armor, was clearly a symbol of the Constellation contracted with Ko Chang-seok.

“Heh heh, I think I figured it out. It’s the power our Constellation gave us.”

-I still feel sorry for the constellation ‘Soldier with a Golden Crown’, but he straightens his mustache, saying that if he concentrates a little more, he will be able to create a masterpiece in no time.

As expected, the 28th ranked demon king, Veris.

It was rumored that he surpassed Hephaestus, the best blacksmith in Olympus, when it came to creating offensive weapons.

If you wear the equipment he made, you will definitely be able to pump up one attack power without knowing anything else.

“I am still adjusting. It’s been a long time since I’ve been dealing with fire.”

“This is great too.”

“Heh heh, you don’t have to float it like that. Even so, it was a long way from following that sword.”

Ko Chang-seok looked at the sword hanging from Sewoon’s waist.

Back Dal.

Although the seal has not yet been unlocked and has B-class performance, Ko Chang-seok was aware of Durandal’s natural strength.

“I didn’t come here to say hello. What are you here for? repair? Or production?”

“I would like to request production.”

“Hmm, I want to do that too, but it seems a little difficult.”

“Why?”

“It’s still hard to make better gear than what you’re wearing. There is also a shortage of materials.”

Go Chang-seok shakes his head as if regretting it.

It seems to be like this after seeing Seun’s ‘Durandal’ and ‘Taejo’s Emperor Mu’s Battlefield’.

Certainly, no matter how good Ko Chang-seok’s skills are, he will not be able to create such a name-class equipment in the current situation.

However, that was not the purpose of Sewoon from the beginning.

“There are ingredients.”

“Oh, this one?”

“It is a material obtained by catching a sea drake. Besides that, I’ve been collecting materials for the monsters at will, so you can use them as much as you like.”

“It seems like there are more than all the materials our clan has gathered.”

“There were quite a few monsters I caught on the way to catch Sea Drake.”

Numerous monster materials poured out of Seun’s subspace pocket.

Most of them were low-grade materials, but scales and fangs obtained through sea drakes were high-quality materials that could not be easily obtained in the lower floors of the tower.

“Hey, are you okay? If it’s such a precious material, I think it would be better to wait a little longer and ask for it when you meet a blacksmith with better skills.”

“You never know when you will meet such a blacksmith, and I believe in the skill of the elder. and… … .”

“and?”

“Aren’t the elders coveted? A chance to craft equipment from Sea Drake’s materials.”

“… … Big hum. I heard this. Most of the other materials are so brittle that even the slightest mistake will cause them to break.”

Results from the tutorial. Ko Chang-seok was a perfect blacksmith from the core.

There was no way that such a person would give up lightly with such a high-quality material in front of him.

“Okay. I will try my best.”

“thank you.”

“What type of equipment?”

“I’ll ask for a light armor set that allows for easy movement and various weapons.”

“Various weapons?”

“yes. It is intended to be used in various ways depending on the situation, so please make whatever you want.”

“Heh heh, seeing that you say that, you know how to use all the weapons. amazing.”

In fact, it was to use Mamon’s treasure rather than depending on the situation.

Normally, it’s best to use Durandal, but in order to increase instantaneous attack power to the limit, it’s best to use Mammon’s treasure, even if it means sacrificing weapons.

“Please pay attention to durability.”

“Don’t worry. I don’t know if it was before, but if you have a proper facility like this, you can make it very strong.”

“Then, thank you.”

“Leave it to me! The quality of the material makes the artisan’s blood boil!”

-The constellation ‘Soldier Wearing a Golden Crown’ glistens, saying that if the material is this good, you can use a new processing method.

-The constellation ‘Crow with Head Down’ expects the soldiers’ skills.

-The constellation ‘Soldier Wearing a Golden Crown’ bows heavily to the demon while holding onto the crown with one hand.

After thanking Ko Chang-seok, I was about to leave the smithy after measuring the size for equipment production, and I remembered what he said at the beginning.

‘Didn’t I say that the blacksmith’s usage period was fixed?’

It is not easy to rent a forge.

Perhaps the reason Ko Chang-seok was able to rent this forge was because the first floor was peaceful.

I couldn’t guarantee that I could use this kind of forge on other floors.

‘I should build a temporary smithy at the base.’

For now, leaving the temporary smithy for later, it was more important to extend the rental period than that.

For at least a month, Koh Chang-seok could leisurely blacksmith.

After walking along the wall of the forge for a while, I found a person in the back who was arranging ore.

“Are you the owner of this forge?”

“That’s right. Who are you?”

“I came here to extend the rental period of the forge.”

“Is that the old man’s son?”

A man with a dwarf physique to the extent that his bones look bony.

If it hadn’t been for the thick gloves on his hands or the iron powder smeared on his face, he wouldn’t have known he was a blacksmith.

If you wielded the hammer properly, it would be normal to have some muscle attached.

Just by looking at his appearance, he could tell what a poor blacksmith he was.

“I just want to be able to use it freely for about a month. I ask that you use the ore freely.”

“What? No, I lent a blacksmith, and I know who is Hogu. Do you know what I play every day? I’m barely lending it as much as I can!”

What to make time for.

In the forge I stopped by earlier, I didn’t see any special items except for the work made by Ko Chang-seok.

In the first place, it means that there is not much work in the forge.

However, the fact that Koh Chang-seok mentioned the period of use means that the man paid a high price.

And, all transactions in the tower are made through barter or public value transactions.

“Five thousand points.”

“What? Now, with public value, people… … .”

“I’ll give you 5,000 more points at the end of the month. And I will pay for the ore according to the market price as much as I use it.”

Total ten thousand points.

When he said that he would pay for the ore, the man’s eyes widened and his back straightened.

For him, a resident of the first floor, 10,000 points was close to half a year’s profit. No, it was a public figure that could be earned by working for a year in these days when the number of jobs has decreased.

However, when he said that he would pay for the ore properly, his eyes widened.

In fact, just entering the tower, most of the players whose public value had been initialized had only a small amount of public value.

Because it was Sewoon who received the reward for ranking first, it was easy to pay 10,000 points out of 100,000 points.

The man who understands that Sewoon is a big hand after a short thought.

“Please feel free to use it! I will dig up any amount of ore, so if there is anything lacking, tell me right away!”

Right away, he put on his pickaxe and hard hat and bent over at Seunwon.
