Episode 160
Episode 160. Opportunity
“It’s fun, it’s fun.”
Baek Hwa-ryong was quite interested in the idea of giving it a chance.
Loneliness.
It was clear that he was lonely.
This loneliness was the loneliness that one felt because no one could follow one’s back.
In fact, just as great as loneliness was boredom.
It might sound arrogant.
Even though I went abroad, I didn’t see any particularly great producers.
There were many Awakened Battle World Awakeners. They were Awakened Battle World Awakeners with powers that were on a different level from those of the Awakened Battle World in Korea.
But ironically, those combat systems didn’t care much about equipment.
They didn’t need any equipment.
Their own abilities became more and more important, and they intentionally distanced themselves from and ignored their equipment.
Of course, there were times when Baekhwaryong gave them equipment using his own abilities.
After actually using it, they also acknowledged Baekhwaryong and Baekhwaryong’s equipment.
But that was it.
There aren’t many producers overseas who are recognized and acknowledged for their work.
There there.
Everyone was at a similar level, but there were many cases where they were stimulated and learned more from Baek Hwa-ryong.
That’s not what Baekhwaryong wanted.
Bloody competition.
He wanted to crush and trample on creators who were better than him with his own hands.
He was a beast.
He always wanted to be a challenger.
I never wanted to be a champion.
But the challenger has to become the champion someday.
“Are you saying that if I take the lead, there will be producers who will follow me? Do you think I haven’t done that before?”
“You must have tried it. But it must be different now than it was then. I don’t know who the producers were then, but the production world is currently very stimulated because of me.”
The awakened members of the production world were all greatly stimulated by the existence of Gu Do-jun.
“So, if Baekhwaryong-nim takes the lead and teaches them. If he shows them words, equipment, or anything else, then things will change.”
“Can you be more specific?”
“There is a high possibility that you will lose the first place.”
“Hehe. Hehehehehe.”
How many producers have said something like that in front of you?
You want to take away the number one spot?
That it could be taken away?
“Isn’t that what you want? No, isn’t that what you want, competition?”
“You have considerable powers of vision. Not only do you see through materials, but you also have considerable powers of visions of people. How about becoming a shaman?”
“So you’re saying I got them all right?”
“Yeah. You’re right.”
Baekhwaryong took out a huge sword from his waist.
“Are you saying that there is someone who can create something that surpasses this sword of mine?”
Baekhwaryong’s eyes lit up.
“If that’s really true, then there’s nothing you can’t do. No, I’d rather ask you to do it. Mr. Gudojun.”
“I’m not just saying this.”
Dojun said.
“What if you can’t keep that promise?”
“That won’t happen. If it comes down to it, I can do it.”
Dojun also took out the sword from his waist.
This time, I created a masterpiece, the Golden Wheel Pumpkin Stone Sword.
“This is about usurping first place.”
* * *
Baek Hwa Ryong was completely smitten with Do Jun’s confidence.
The golden pumpkin wheel sword he took out.
It was a pretty good sword even in Baekhwaryong’s eyes.
Of course, it couldn’t be considered as good as the Baekhwaryong sword.
That subtle difference.
“I still have a long way to go to catch up.”
“Can you feel it?”
“I don’t know much.”
I never thought you would notice that.
“The difference between my sword and your sword is very small. Very small.”
“But I know that at this level, that tiny difference may not be able to be made up for in a lifetime.”
“The level is deep. It’s deep.”
At that moment, Baekhwaryong felt a chill.
“Don’t participate.”
And that coolness was crucial.

“Cold hell. Let’s do it together.”
“Thank you.”
Dojun started briefing right away.
“Is the Paju Cold Hell event that big? So big that all guilds have to participate as a guild in South Korea and not just compete?”
“yes.”
But Baek Hwa-ryong was still skeptical.
Let’s say Dojun is right.
However, these guilds have been competing with each other for a long time.
These were definitely not the guilds that would come together with nice words about joining forces for the sake of the Republic of Korea.
Someone might want to swallow this whole ball.
In that case, we will proceed with a separate strategy.
Even if the damage is greater because of it.
“No one has ever been able to do that before. Let alone me.”
Even Baek Hwa-ryong, who praised him as a master and said that he was the pride of the Republic of Korea, could not even think about integrating the guilds and conducting a raid as Do-jun had said.
“It’s even more so because we are producers.”
“Is that so?”
Dojun looked into Baek Hwa-ryong’s eyes.
“I never thought that there was anything I couldn’t do because I was a producer.”
Dojun didn’t necessarily set limits.
The production world, the combat world. The division into these is just a classification.
In the end, we are all the same awakened people.
There are things that some people can do better than others, but there is nothing that some people can’t do.
“If you think there is something you cannot do, I think this raid will be of great help to you, Baekhwaryong.”
“Why is that so?”
“Because you’ll see things you’ve never seen before.”
* * *
“Before we go straight to the raid. Can I see your skills a little bit? I’m quite curious about the crafting.”
‘That’s good.’
Rather, that was what Dojun had hoped for.
“Then, can you show me Master Baek Hwa Ryong’s work?”
“It’s not difficult.”
Baekhwaryong’s personal workshop.
Compared to the attacks and defenses of the top rankers I’ve seen so far, Baekhwaryong’s attacks and defenses were considerably smaller.
‘I don’t know the power of the Baekhwaryong.’
Dojun had no idea what kind of abilities Baekhwaryong had to produce.
Whether they have abilities specialized in making equipment like Master Lee So-Hyeon or Master Choi Seo-Cheon, or whether they have abilities that enhance physical abilities.
Or maybe he had some special ability like Dojun.
So I was curious.
What kind of abilities does it take to be ranked number one in the production world and what kind of things does it take to be able to create something?
‘The textbook is right in front of you.’
“Since you called me senior, I guess I should show you first.”
Baekhwaryong, with his arms crossed, began to draw up the mana from his entire body.
It was clear that a strong mana was boiling over, but at the end it was calm.
It was so quiet that Baekhwaryong couldn’t feel anything.
No, to be exact, I felt like a person with nothing.
Neither mana, nor skill, nor talent, nor anything else.
blank.
But the moment I firmly grasped the hammer in my hand, my presence spread out.
Baek. Hwa. Yong.
Each and every one of those names was embedded in the movement, so it could be said that he was the true number one awakened person in the production world.
‘You have quite a presence.’
Just like Master Lee So-Hyeon, the gap between Master Baek Hwa-Ryong and Master Lee So-Hyeon when he held the hammer was extremely large.
‘This is why we can’t help but call Master Choi Seo-cheon the little Choi. From the moment Master Choi Seo-cheon first held a hammer, he was already the best in South Korea.’
“Let’s start.”
Kyaang-!
He started producing.
Dojun couldn’t take his eyes off the production for even a moment.
Baekhwaryong had them all.
Ability to specialize in equipment creation.
The ability to enhance physical abilities.
and.
Kyaang-!
Even special abilities like Dojun’s.
This is the true embodiment of the creator’s perfection.
Versatile.
It clearly shows why it is ranked number one.
As soon as the armor was handed over to Dojun, its shape changed to fit Dojun’s body perfectly.
“The options are well-chosen.”
It was the ability of the equipment option [Mastery].
It even had the option to change into a form that suited its owner, and this option seemed to be a special ability that Baekhwaryong possessed.
‘I’m speechless.’
That’s why neither Lee So-hyun nor Choi Seo-cheon were able to take the first place.
‘I have it all, but I’m throwing it away.’
“You can make anything.”
“Creating anything isn’t always fun.”
Baekhwaryong said.
“What do you think? Did you enjoy it?”
Baek Hwa-ryong looked at Do-jun’s expression.
He intentionally showed all the parts of his production to Gu Do-jun.
This was because the producers knew very well how people would be discouraged and depressed.
Im Da-young is called a predator and is said to break the hearts of newcomers, but in reality, the original one was Baek Hwa-ryong.
Baekhwaryong has created countless creators who have been discouraged after seeing his creations.
Because of that, I didn’t show my work to anyone for quite a long time.
It’s the same these days.
When I was working overseas, I kept the production itself a secret.
Anyway, since Baekhwaryong’s production speed was also overwhelming, even if they kept the production method secret, it was well-received overseas.
“It was fun. Thank you so much.”
But Dojun didn’t show any particular reaction.
He didn’t look timid or overly confident.
I just accepted the production as production.
There was quite an interesting expression on his face.
Baekhwaryong laughed without realizing it.
He showed off all his productions.
And yet you look so interested?
Not another Awakened, but a Production Awakened.
Moreover, the level is high. That means you can see the level of Baekhwaryong’s production.
“I’m glad you had fun.”
Baekhwaryong gestured.
“Then show me your work. I’ll decide based on that.”
My mind was already in a good mood.
Just those words from Gu Do-jun made Baek Hwa-ryong want to participate in this Paju Cold Hell Raid.
“yes.”
Dojun started making equipment as if in response.
Visibility index.
Dojun also made armor, just as Baekhwaryong had shown.
Shaaaaak-.
Put your hands on the material.
The Hand of Midas skill ability was also quite interesting to Baekhwaryong.
“Oh.”
Dojun, who reached Midas’ Hand LV7, was able to minimize the amount of modification work.
What this means is that you can now go even faster than you were before.
Extreme shortening.
“It’s finished.”
Much faster than the Baekhwaryong that had been in production for decades.
And Dojun, who was certain that he could make equipment, held out the armor.
Even though it looked roughly made, this armor was rated L.
This is equipment made in front of Baekhwaryong.
Dojun used the Myungkyung Index and created the equipment with endless concentration.
“!”
Baekhwaryong looked surprised for a moment.
Since it was made in an instant and Dojun must have used some strength to make it, I thought it would be SS+ or SSS level.
But the armor in front of me was none other than L-grade.
“Hahahahahaha-!”
It was a quality that made me laugh.
Baek Hwa-ryong, who was smiling with his teeth exposed, was feeling emotional for the first time in a long time.
Victory spirit.
The competitive spirit of wanting to beat the equipment Dojun made with the equipment he made himself.
As I felt that way for the first time in a long time, the mana inside my body began to rapidly gather.
The mana spreading out around him was choking him, but it didn’t really mean much to Dojun.
After the Hell Tower Dungeon.
I knew for sure when I saw the Cold Demon Legion in Paju.
What is your current physical condition?
It is certain that Baekhwaryong is a great producer.
It was different from the typical producers, and if you look closely, its style was similar to Dojun’s.
But can Baekhwaryong play the role that Dojun did in the Hell Tower Dungeon?
Will Yoon Cheon-ha be able to show the power he showed?
Baekhwaryong’s strength is highly regarded because he is an awakened member of the production world. That is why no matter how much mana he spurted out, it had no effect on Dojun.
Rather, Dojun became even more excited after seeing Baekhwaryong’s power.
This year’s Paju Cold Hell will be a truly huge event for the awakened creators of the production world.
They’ll be able to show you what gear they make, what style of crafting they do, and what effects they get when they use it.
It’s rare to have 8 guilds fight on the same side like this.
Dojun handed over a piece of paper that looked like a business card.
“I don’t have a decent business card yet. Please contact me. I plan to leave in a week.”
“A week? I thought you said it was urgent.”
“How dangerous it is. Everyone needs to know.”
“You want to show me the danger? Aren’t you trying to prevent it in advance?”
“The evacuation towards Paju has already been completed.”
Dojun said.
“If you don’t show it, it won’t be felt.”
