Several cogs were listed, and the man kindly explained them.
Next is an introduction to bearings, which are essential for machine elements.
All of these were ordinary things that Jun-woo knew.
âHearthstones are mana condensed, and magic stones are mainly for golems⊠âŠ.â
Known explanations.
âNow then, how are you going to use them?â
The adamantium from the manâs item window melted, and countless gears were created.
The Gears found their seats and formed a small golem.
âMechanical golem, the power source is a magic stone. If you make it through the blueprint, God will give it an effect. Anyway, come here and draw the part the golem is missing.â
Jun-woo got up with a puzzled face and approached the golem.
âAre you talking about missing parts?â
âYes, you should be able to detect the degree of defects in mechanical elements through mana, right?â
âAh yes.â
Jun-woo placed his hand on the golem, closed his eyes, and breathed in mana.
The parts that make up the golem were drawn in Jun-wooâs mind.
Various gears floated around Jun-wooâs head when he woke up.
Jun-woo picked two of them.
Then the parts disappeared, the man said.
âOh, how is it? 10 more points, then one more time.â
A 2m-sized mechanical golem was created by the maleâs hand, and Jun-woo checked again for defects.
Jun-woo, who opened his eyes, looked at the man once, then closed his eyes again and more deeply.
When he couldnât find any flaws, Jun-woo opened his eyes and spoke.
âA well-crafted golem.â
âOoh, 10 more points.â
It was a man who scored what.
He doesnât know what the result of that score would be, but it seemed like he needed to get many points.
âThank you.â
âNow, letâs learn about mana applications. Sit back.â
âYeah.â
As Jun-woo sat down, the explanation started again.
âMana applications include searching, disassembling and tracking, just like you did, double search for building a model of a soul stone, discovering a flaw in the machine it is made of⊠âŠ.â
Contrary to the previous explanation, it felt like the story he was telling was seeping into his head.
The knowledge he had previously known about how to deal with mana came back to his mind.
âTracking is the ability to chase a targetâs mana, and itâs used to build defense towers, rift alarms, etc.â
The knowledge he didnât know permeated for the first time.
âTracking requires the userâs ability to detect mana to be good for good things to come out.
Five Magical Stones came to mind.
It was the same question he was asked once in the alchemistâs dungeon in the past, but the amount of mana contained in the magic crystal was so uniform that it was difficult to compare.
Jun-woo compared them for a while and said without hesitation.
âNumber four.â
âAgain, this time?â
âThree times.â
âLast time, this time?â
âOne time.â
The man grinned.
âAdd 30 points.â
âThank you.â
âNow, letâs take a look at disassembly this time. Disassembly can disassemble the machine it is made of. Still, you can also make potions by disassembling materials; ultimately, it is a mana application method used to study the wise manâs stone.â
It was something he knew.
âDisassembling materials requires intellect and mana, so itâs better to wear accessories that increase mana and dismantle them.â
The mana application he knew through the alchemistâs knowledge was re-established in his mind.
âLetâs try disassembling it this time.â
Iron ore was placed on Jun-wooâs desk.
âItâs iron ore. Letâs see where we can disassemble it.â
âCan I disassemble it?â
âSure.â
When Jun-wooâs hand was placed on the iron ore and powerful mana fired, the iron ore began to fall into powder pieces.
The completely decomposed iron powder disappeared in the wind, and iron ore was placed again.
âOnce more.â
Jun-woo gave it to powder.
âTry again, one more time, one more time.â
The man made a bewildered face when he disassembled five in a row.
âIs it possible one more time?â
âIâll try.â
The iron ore was placed, and Jun-woo spewed mana again.
Jun-wooâs complexion was already pale, and for the first time, cold sweat was running down his forehead due to mana depletion.
The half-decomposed iron ore disappeared when Jun-woo collected mana due to extreme vertigo.
âAfter⊠âŠ.â
âItâs 50 points⊠âŠ. Itâs like my record⊠Youâre a great newcomer.â
âThank you⊠âŠ.â
A brilliant blue potion bottle that floated in front of Jun-woo approached.
âPlease drink.â
Drinking it sweet restores all mana instantly, and the potion bottle disappears.
âAre you okay now?â
âYeah.â
âFollow.â
When he left the room, Jun-woo followed him.
After walking along the long passage, the man entered the room.
In a large workspace, various things were laid out.
On an extended workbench, including dozens of mechanical humanoid golems, various products were laid out as if on display.
Some things looked like flying cars, and there were also flying vehicles that looked like fighters, and a colossal golem that reached 5m was standing on the wall.
âHave you never made a homunculus before?â
âYeah?â
âI heard you canât handle soul stones other than golems.â
âAh, yes⊠âŠ.â
âThe golem you see over there was made with a soul stone once, but it didnât seem to have any effect other than to increase the vitality.â
If it was made in that way, the cost of the materials that would have to go in would be several times higher.
âItâs big⊠âŠ.â
âHeâs the size of a guy.â
Jun-woo looked at the golem and looked at the objects on the workbench.
There were various things such as magic lights, pendants, communicators, etc.
Among them, what caught Jun-wooâs attention was the button used when he went to the dimensional warehouse.
âCan I touch it?â
âYou can touch it.â
Jun-woo grabbed the button and listened.
But no effect was seen.
âItâs an empty can; come this way, and Iâll tell you about the tower.â
Jun-woo put down the button and asked carefully.
âAre you Sr. Esopian by any chance?â
At that moment, a strange phenomenon occurred.
The vision in front of him was torn as if the space was shaking.
And a phrase appeared in front of Jun-woo.
[You have been granted the âOrder to Improve Job Attributesâ by fulfilling the conditions.]
The man, whose body was severely blurred, looked back and smiled.
âYes, how did you know?â
âBecause Iâve seen the name of the product⊠âŠ.â
Esopian caressed her temple.
âYouâre getting dizzy, so it looks like you got the dimensional warehouse button the goblin took.â
It was Esopian, where the atmosphere seemed to have changed.
âYeah? Yeah⊠âŠ.â
âDid you make Eumeria?â
âYes, I made it.â
âSo, did you find this way? For a homunculus to have any memory, it must have a near-perfect design, technology, and skills, but you seem to have all of them.â
The space began to tear.
âTime is running out. Is your world safe?â
âYeah? To some extent⊠âŠ.â
âI have many questions I want to ask, but take it first.â
Esopian handed the purple book.
It was an âAdvanced Book of Magical Engineering.â
Then the order was handed out.
âTake this too.â
It was the âSkill Enhancement Scrollâ used for the greatest legend.
This time, the Esopian handed a silver marble and spoke.
âIâll take care of Eumeria, and donât do anything dangerous because everything Iâm giving you right now is a bribe as a favor.â
âAll rightâŠ.â
[Failed Philosopherâs Stone]
-Rank: Legendary
-Classification: Consumable
-Effect: When eaten, beneficial effects may occur.
â Item value: 8,000,000,000,000
âIt failed, but Iâll try it later.â
âThank you.â
âTake this too.â
In succession, 40 superlative magic crystals were delivered to Jun-woo.
For a moment, Esopian frowned.
âItâs hard to tell because my memory isnât great. Thereâs a hidden place in the dimensional warehouse, and maybe thereâs a wise manâs stone I made.â
âOh, I ate that.â
Esopian showed harmony.
âYes? Did you succeed?â
âIt was called Unstable, and with a beneficial effect, mana recovery increased by 30.â
âHas it been a failure? Did you say that Oda killed sandworm?â
âYes, that is correct.â
âLetâs visit the Sandwormâs nest here.â
âOkay.â
âAnd⊠⊠.â
Esopian, whose body was torn apart, smiled softly.
âFinally, Iâll take good care of Eumeria.â
With those words, everything in the space before him was torn apart, and an intense light permeated Jun-wooâs eyes.
When he closed and opened his eyes, the space in front of him had changed.
Jun-woo was flying over the open circular door.
There was only dirt beneath the open door.
â⊠⊠.â
He wanted to ask about the Philosopherâs Stone, but the space has changed.
Perhaps Esopian was the father of Eumeria.
Maybe itâs because of the color of his hair. He felt the same way.
Jun-woo left the strange feeling behind and hurriedly flew to the tunnel blasting site.
When Jun-woo flew to the tunnel site, miner Jeong Dae-nam and construction wizard Choi Ji-ho, who was working, looked at Jun-woo floating in the sky with stunned faces.
Jun-woo said as he landed.
âEveryone, please follow me for a moment.â
Jun-woo provided them with two flying cars, took 8 miners and two construction wizards, and flew to the place a little while ago.
And they dug up the soil there according to Jun-wooâs wish.
The soil accumulated in the cylinder made of old iron plates was emptied.
When he scooped up all the soil that filled the cylinder, he was able to find the place where Jun-woo walked through.
âIâll ask you here too.â
âYeah!â
Jeong Dae-nam sucked the soil with a sandbag, and Choi Ji-ho pulled the ground back.
Jun-woo walked on the path that came into existence.
Dirt was seeping through the top because it was torn everywhere.
The soil in the workspace displayed the inventions also began to fall out.
There seemed to be nothing special other than the corroded iron.
Choi Ji-ho filled the pouring soil with stones, and they dug for a long time.
They gathered at the bottom of the cylinder when the sun went down, and it was time to get sleepy.
âSorry for the sudden request. Instead, we will pay double the salary.â
Jung Dae-nam answered with a satisfied smile.
âAww, thank you. We can do it anytime, as long as you put us to sleep.â
âLet me sleep here today. Iâll ask for a little more tomorrow.â
âYes, yes!â
Jun-woo and others stayed there for a day.
The next day too, the forced march proceeded, and there were a workspace and several rooms, but nothing that could be called an item was seen.
And in the evening, they were out of the desert.
Kakan, including Jun-woo, and the defensive robot protected them and returned to the original site.
âYou suffered. Then Iâll take good care of you here, manager.â
âYes, yes. Come in, Master.â
The laboratory under the desert was all destroyed except for traces of it.
Jun-woo got in the flying car and quickly returned to the guild building with Kakan.
smart
Eumeria entered the master room.
âDid you find the key?â
âThanks. Thank you, Eumeria.â
Eumeria smiled.
Again, it felt somewhat similar to Esopian.
âIâve only been to places that come to mind⊠it seems strangely right.â
âI think youâve been there in the past. Do you know by any chance itâs Esopian?â
Eumeria said with a bit of a puzzled look.
âI think I was only vaguely listening⊠âŠ.â
âMaybe itâs your father, I met him, and he cares a lot about you.â
Eumeria still had a puzzled face.
âAhâŠ, Yeah⊠âŠ.â
âTake a look at the place sometimes, it was covered with stones, but you can break it.â
âYes, I will.â
âAnd if you need anything, just tell me.â
âNothing.â
âYesâŠ, you can go out. Anyway, thank you.â
âWhat. Then rest, Master.â
Eumeria nodded her head and went outside.
As Eumeria left, Jun-woo looked at the various things he had brought.
