Jun-woo quickly learned statics, dynamics, thermodynamics, material mechanics, fluid mechanics, and related mathematics.

It didn’t seem like it would be of much help, but he thought it would be helpful if it got tangled up, so Jun-woo learned whatever he wanted.

Jun-woo’s enthusiasm for learning was so high that he wanted to learn even in the evening by adding tutoring fees to the instructors at the academy.

The academy instructor saw Jun-woo as a student who learned too quickly.

If there is something peculiar, he heard it is to weave modern culture and systems.

“The alchemist made it possible to activate an electric circuit with a magic crystal. But electricity is much cheaper, so why are you driving the car with a Magic Stone?”

“If it becomes an item, you can also put a car in the item window. Why is no one trying?”

“Don’t ask me about that… You should ask the alchemists. As far as I know, even if you make a car with Magic Stone, it doesn’t make it because it’s not fast enough, but it’s running rather than driving a slow car. Why do you have to get in the car at that wide gate? There is no road.”

“There are many places where there are no roads, but there are wide roads. If you make it for mountain use, you can put it in and take it out as needed. It’ll be useful for people who don’t shoot with agility.”

“So… Go to the alchemist and ask him why he doesn’t make it. They make blueprints.”

Junwoo didn’t understand why he didn’t make it.

Jun-woo asked many questions after that, and the instructor was only embarrassed.

“I am an instructor, but I am not an expert. I don’t know too much about the professional part… And since modern culture and system items are completely different, why not visit an alchemist for that? … .”

He was a lecturer who mentioned the alchemist in every word.

Although the instructor did not know, Jun-woo possessed almost the highest level of knowledge among alchemists.

“Ummm… … .”

Leaving the academy, Jun-woo searched for an alchemist.

There were many things I wanted to ask.

I had a lot of questions.

[Alchemist’s Night, what will surprise the world?]

I did a search and found an article.

There was an alchemist’s meeting held by the Alchemist Association. It seemed that it was quite a topic to reveal something.

Jun-woo attended the next day after obtaining an invitation through the chief of the Blacksmith’s Association.

From the entrance of the hotel, I saw many people wearing robes.

“How did you get here?”

“I came from the Blacksmith Association.”

“Go in.”

After showing the invitation, Jun-woo was able to enter alone.

In a large hall, about a hundred people gathered and chatted.

It seemed that no one Jun-woo knew.

As he looked around for a while, he saw an executive he met while taking the certification exam.

He was Lee Sang-Baek, one of the three vice presidents.

“Senior, how are you?”

“Oh, I see you all here. After all, he’s a highly intelligent blacksmith, so there’s no way he wouldn’t be interested.”

At the vice president’s words, the eyes of those who were with him lit up.

“Are you strong? Could the former phenomenon happen? Are you interested in alchemy?”

“Hey, don’t be greedy. I am the opposite.”

“Are you going to give up your job change because you object?

“No? You must be a blacksmith.”

Jun-woo smiled awkwardly at the two of them.

“I’m going to think about it, but I guess… I don’t think I will change jobs unless I upgrade my grade.”

“Yes, you are a heavenly blacksmith. I saw it with my own two eyes.”

The man in the robe asked, staring at him.

“Then why did you come here? You weren’t among the people invited to the Captain’s Association.”

“I’m curious because there are inventions.”

“Things like that can be viewed as articles… … .”

He looked like he had a heart attack.

The vice president smiled and patted him on the back.

“Take a good look. Because the president of the association also pays attention to the blacksmith. My skills are not normal.”

“yes? Then you want more?”

“Because this person can’t.”

Jun-woo didn’t know who that person was.

“Oh, I didn’t introduce myself. This is the president of the Alchemy Association.”

“Hello. Nice to meet you. My name is Junwoo Lee.”

The president of the association nodded and looked at Jun-woo.

“I am Younghan Kim. Did you really have intellect?”

Jun-woo was taking half of his intelligence and agility.

“I just took a few shots for mana management.”

“Are you interested in alchemy?”

“Yes, a lot.”

“Hey, nice to hear that. Do you have any questions about alchemy?”

Jun-woo asked cautiously.

“Why don’t you make cars?”

“Hey, you’re such a weird friend… … .”

Kim Young-han put down the empty wine glass and said.

“To put it simply, we don’t make it because it’s less efficient.”

“Is the efficiency very low?”

“There were some alchemists who tried to make them through blueprints because they didn’t have the speed, but the effect was poor compared to the effort. I’d rather just run than ride something like that.”

“Ah, is that so… … .”

Jun-woo wondered if they had made it wrong.

“By the way, I’m embarrassed because it’s a childish question.”

“I was curious too, but I found out today that I failed even after making the blueprint.”

“No matter how good the blueprints were, the production process was difficult, so the finished work failed. Most of the minerals required were Adamantium. It had to be refined, and even the blacksmiths had their tongues sticking out.”

“Sophisticated smelting of adamantium is difficult… … .”

The blueprint could be made out of paper. You could only use it if you had a related job or skill.

‘Will the skill be created?’

The blueprint making skill was a skill that was created in most jobs that could use blueprints.

Jun-woo had the knowledge of the alchemist’s room in his head.

Countless blueprints could be made right away, but it was only possible to get a good effect by correcting the skill.

Otherwise, it was just an item called a supply.

“Thank you all for taking a seat.”

As the microphone rang in the hall, people began to sit at the table.

“We welcome all the seniors and juniors who participated in this event and officials and reporters from various associations.”

The lights went out, and the screen was reflected on the big screen. It was a video about alchemy.

Video of touching mechanical arms and legs, video of mechanical golems moving, researching and fighting potions, etc.

It was a video that contained the overall story of an alchemist.

“The beginning of alchemy was to turn a lower-grade mineral into a higher-grade one. In the process, we alchemists accumulated extensive knowledge about minerals and enormous research data. In recent years, Alchemy is being developed to make items that can help life and gate life.”

An ordinary alarm clock appeared in the video.

“The first thing I want to introduce today is a watch.”

Several types of watches were lined up.

“There are so many modern watches, but not one can fit into the item window. When I put on my watch to tell the time and went to the gate to go hunting, it was easy for the watch to break due to the shock I received without knowing it.”

Mechanical watch disassembled and gears lined up.

“But after the efforts of alchemists, the watch was born, and there are currently two watches available. One is a quartz watch made with blueprints, and the other is an entry-level mechanical manual watch.”

A small pocket watch was reflected on the screen.

“I would like to introduce you to this mechanical manual watch.”

Many people want to know the time.

Those who entered the dungeon and hunted especially wanted to know the time.

So the alchemist watchmakers melted iron to make mechanical watches.

“We live in a limited time frame. Time will absolutely influence your decision-making. We’ve made a more advanced watch to make your gate life more successful. I will reveal it now.”

Pocket watch options appeared.

[Mechanical pocket watch]

-Rank: Epic

-Classification: Runes

-Durability: 500/500

-Description: You can check the time by turning the mainspring.

*Increases stamina by 2 when held in the item window.

-Item value: 27,400,000

“It is a pocket watch made of iron and titanium. It is classified as a rune, and you can even get the effect of improving your stamina.”

A rune is an item that has an effect even if you have it in the item window. Still, it was an item that the general public did not pay much attention to because of its low effectiveness compared to its value.

Runes are the only items that raise stats, and three runes could be applied.

The value of the watch item is 27.4 million gold.

It was an amount that Jun-woo did not understand when considering the cost.

‘What parts are used to make it so expensive?’

The president of the Alchemy Association said with a satisfied smile.

“A watch that showed good results by using both iron and titanium simultaneously.”

“It will be quite useful for those who hunt dungeons.”

Jun-woo looked around the hall.

They all looked like they were showing great interest in something.

Jun-woo didn’t understand.

Such a watch is worth 27 million gold, and the eyes show interest.

Suppose Junwoo made a mechanical manual watch that winds the mainspring by turning the crown. In that case, he could make it out of titanium, no, Adamantium, without using the iron.

The cost would be insignificant.

‘If it’s an auxiliary robot, I think we can make something better. How much? Expensive watches.’

Jun-woo took out his smartphone and searched for the price of the watch.

A small mechanical watch made by an alchemist was priced in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

‘To make something like that, I think you’ll need a level of mana control.’

Iron can be melted and poured into a mold to shape it. Still, when minerals above titanium are dissolved, the minerals evaporate.

A gelatin cube was mixed to prevent evaporation, and titanium was molded with mana. Still, it was difficult to mold titanium unless you were a high-level alchemist.

However, assistive robots could be easily created.

Expensive watches made with blueprints cost billions of dollars.

‘If you make and sell it, it’s pretty… … .’

The use of assistive robots may have been this part. Distinct parts and auxiliary robots could do it.

Although it would be a supply item to be made without a design, it seemed that a sound effect could be expected.

Jun-woo wanted to return to the studio right away but stayed there to know their Level a little more.

The following product introduced was a potion.

It was a potion researched jointly with a potion manufacturer and increased its efficiency through distillation.

It was a product coveted by the wealthy, but it was expensive.

The following product introduced was a mechanical golem made with blueprints.

“You can see this mechanical golem was crafted from the soul stone of the golem boss, Lumarkan.”

The item value of the soul stone, like a round glass bead, was marked in the video.

Over 7 billion gold.

“This Lumarkan made of titanium has most of Lumarkan’s skills. The specs are as follows.”

The Level of the mechanical golem was 83.

The value of the item was 9.7 billion gold.

Golam was available for sale.

If you order the guard, the golem will protect the user, and if you ask to help the hunt, it will help the search.

Demand was not deficient, so he was an alchemist’s main sales force.

The materials of the blueprint are listed.

Only Adamantium was visible, and not a single letter was visual for titanium.

It was clearly a failure that violated the material of the blueprint.

“Why is that made of titanium?”

“It’s because we don’t have the skills to shape the Adamantium. For soul stones of less than 10 billion won, it is better to make and sell them in titanium rather than collaborating with a blacksmith, so we should make them like that.”

Minerals higher than Adamantium could not be melted.

No, when it melts, the item loses its value and becomes extinct.

The alchemists were constantly trying to figure out how to turn it into a liquid without destroying it. Still, they couldn’t find a way yet.

But Jun-woo was also able to do this.

Just put the polished iron plate into the auxiliary robot, and it will process itself.

The auxiliary robot was able to make Adamantium of the desired size.

“I have an appointment, so I’ll go first, seniors.”

“Is that already? Shall we go see the last thing?”

It was true that I didn’t have high expectations.

“I’m sorry, but I’ll let you know through the article, then… … .”

“Looks like something happened. Come in. If you have any questions about alchemy, just drop by the association.”

“See you again.”

Jun-woo greeted them and left the hall.

On the way back to the underground workshop, Jun-woo stopped by a material department store and bought minerals.

“A thousand iron ore, 500 titanium, and 100 adamantium, right?”

“Yes, and 100 each of slime liquid, gelatin cubes, black powder, and crystal crystals, please.”

“Please wait.”

If he bought it from Walker, he could buy it a little cheaper, but Jun-woo used the ingredients department store as soon as possible.

Jun-woo, who bought the mineral, went to a watch shop and bought a mechanical pocket watch.

He knew the principle, but he bought it because he thought it would be nice to have a sample.

After buying everything he wanted, Jun-woo hurriedly ran to the basement workshop.

My steps back were faster than usual.
