33.
A speed run match between Seo Yi-jun and Team C-1, with Seo Yi-jun joining the Haitai Guild as a condition.
There, out of nowhere, I saw an article titled Joseu of the Beast Gate participating in the war.
‘Are you fishing?’
Seo Yi-jun was suspicious of fishing.
It’s an article that says ‘Join the war!’ in the title, but when you actually look at the content, it’s just a guess that ‘It would be interesting if you joined the war.’
It is definitely possible, as it is an issue that is occupying the top ranks of ranking news.
If it’s Jose, it’s also quite an attractive bait.
I clicked on the article with that thought in mind.
“… … .”
It was a real article, even including the interview.
Seo Yi-jun opened KakaoTalk.
[Me] Why are you doing that?
[Joseph] The article is spring? It’s fast.
[Me] Why are you doing that?
[Hoseou] Huh? Jun, you explained it? Hahahaha
‘… … I said it for nothing.’
The reason I explained it was because I thought it was an information fee.
no.
In fact, even if he had just brushed it off at the time, Jose is a man who would have gotten involved after seeing the news.
But if you haven’t unraveled the information yourself.
[Joseph] I thought you wanted me to do that too? Hahaha
At least I wouldn’t have to hear this nonsense…
There was no way he would step down even if told to do so since the article had already been published.
“ha.”
Seo Yi-jun let out a short sigh.
-Less?
-Less or more?
-Daughter?
The three corporals who were staying in the one-room while summoned immediately responded.
“It’s nothing. Just wait a minute, I have something to prepare.”
Seo Yi-jun eased the soldiers’ worries with a faint smile.
‘I can’t help but do what I have to do because of that idiot.’
The bed and table were pulled up against the wall with wires that limited the output.
In the living room space secured in this way, a folding bathtub was placed.
Srrrr… … .
I moved the wire again and lifted the large pile of items stacked against the front door.
It was a milk carton.
There, only a part of the wire was subjected to cutting force.
Swish swish! … Swish swish swish.
The milk cartons were cut open all at once, and their contents, that is, milk, were poured into the bathtub.
They say milk is good for your bones.
If you look closely, there are research results that show that this isn’t necessarily the case.
Actually, it was good anyway.
‘I felt strangely drawn to it.’
Seo Yi-jun was a skeleton soldier, and for some reason he missed milk.
Although I never really remember enjoying milk itself, it was just the main ingredient in cereal lattes.
After returning, his craving for milk disappeared as if it were a lie, and Seo Yi-jun also forgot about milk.
‘I wanted to commemorate the gathering of all the platoon commanders, and since everyone completed their training, I wanted to give them a separate award, so I was thinking about it and then it suddenly came to me.’
Just in case, I bought a folding bathtub and some milk and set it up.
-Less… .
-Less, less, less…
-Daughter, huh?
The sergeants were enjoying a half-bath, stretching out in the bathtub.
To be exact, the number of royal guards and black magic soldiers increased.
The dragon soldier imitated the two while splashing water and repeated the splashing.
One thing is certain.
“… … Do you like it?”
-Less! Less! Less!
The three sergeants were said to be very fond of this milk bath.
‘I guess I’ll have to rent a bathhouse next time.’
If I wanted to summon an entire skeleton troop and give them a milk bath, it seemed like it would be impossible at home.
‘… … the legion?’
I decided to think about that later. * * *
I gathered information about the Haitai C-1 team.
A simple milk bath raised the morale of the Royal Guard, Black Magic Soldiers, and Dragon Soldiers.
But Seo Yi-jun still needed to prepare.
‘You have to have the best power.’

Seo Yi-jun said that he had no intention of forming a strategy team because it was a speed run competition.
‘If you were going to form a team just for this kind of thing, you wouldn’t have even tried to attack alone in the first place.’
Seo Yi-jun’s power.
He spoke of the power of the skeleton corps.
[Enter Bloodstain Obsession (C)]
So Seo Yi-jun entered the C-class gate, the obsession with bloodstains.
It was an old castle inhabited by high-ranking monsters, vampire spawn, servants of vampires.
“Blood… … , fresh… … , blood… … .”
Half of the vampire spawn were flesh-type monsters with strangely bloated bodies.
“Give me blood, give me blood… … .”
The other half are magical monsters that use [Blood Magic] with strangely shrunken bodies.
So, it was a material for a skeleton magic bottle.
-Less than that~
-Clap clap clap~
For that reason, the black magic soldiers and magic soldiers were dancing shoulder dance and pouring down bombs.
“Let’s go together.”
-Clap clap clap.
After going through several battles like that.
[Summon Skeleton Soldier (C)]
… … .
2. Summon 1 Skeleton Magic Bottle (E) from the corpse of a magic monster.
-Maximum Summon Number: [30/30]
… … .
The formation of the magic troops, including the black magic troops, has been filled.
“You guys eat some too.”
Seo Yijun handed over the elixir he had taken out of his inventory to the magicians who had just joined.
Before entering the Bloodstain Obsession, there are 30 E-class elixirs that Jeong Myeong-san made with D-class essences and handed over.
That wasn’t all.
-What is this…?
-I split the C-class essence you gave me on the first day into 5 D-class essences, and then split those into 15 E-class essences.
-There seem to be quite a lot of them.
– Hehe, maybe because the original was C-grade, there are some parts that are split more sometimes.
There was a C-rank essence that I obtained by defeating Joseu in the promotion match.
Jeong Myeong-san was keeping it because he didn’t have the confidence to handle it yet.
Thanks to the C-rank promotion and the [Elixir] title, I was able to successfully create a large quantity of elixirs this time.
The results were as follows.
[Skeleton Soldier Reinforcement (D)]
– Strengthens [All] Skeleton Soldiers with elixirs of D grade or lower.
1. Skeleton Soldier [43rd/99th]
2. Skeleton Magic Bottle [29th/29th]
3. Skeleton Beast [29th/29th]
Although many of the skeleton soldiers have not yet taken the elixir.
Looking at the entire skeleton corps, more than half of them took elixirs.
In particular, the fact that all magicians and beastmen took it was significant.
[Conquered the Bloodstain Obsession (C)]
[Number of C-class gates conquered (2/10)]
[You obtain 500 cores.]
[You earn 150 points.]
It took only about 50 hours to clear the gate, including the hidden boss.
It was shortened by a full 10 hours compared to when I conquered the Slime Cave.
‘We can save more time here.’
[[Balanced Skeleton] proficiency has reached maximum.]
[[Promote Balanced Skeleton]]
[Grade: D-Class -> C-Class]
[Points remaining: 215 -> 115]
[[Balanced Skeleton (C)] The following options are applied as a promotion reward.]
1. Bone Strengthening 120% -> 250% [UP!]
2. Bone Destruction [NEW!]
[Balanced Skeleton] has been upgraded to C-class, and the effect of skeletal reinforcement has more than doubled.
‘With basic skills and elixirs, and 250% skeletal reinforcement, even a skeleton soldier will be in a pretty tolerable state.’
This means that the entire skeleton unit has become much stronger and much faster.
Of course, this also applies to Seo Yi-jun.
‘Skeleton Destruction, this is an attacker that uses [Balanced Skeleton] as an option.’
The application technology that gave bubbles to Kwon Young-woo, Lizard, and Lee Wei has established itself as an option with the gruesome name of Bone Destruction.
‘It’s an option for [Balanced Skeleton], but I think this goes better with [Balanced Skeleton].’
Seo Yi-jun turned his gaze to the following message.
[[Bone Strike] proficiency has reached its maximum.]
[[Promote this Bone Strike].]
[Grade: D-Class -> C-Class]
[Points remaining: 115 -> 15]
[[Bone Strike (C)] The following options are applied as promotion rewards.]
1. Additional damage 15% -> 30% [UP!]
2. Critical activation
3. Low probability of paralysis [NEW!]
[Bone Strike], which activates when striking a bone, has also been upgraded to C-rank.
‘Critical with additional damage to the pain of skeletal destruction.’
Since Bone Destruction is basically a bone-biting attack, it definitely goes well with [Bone Strike].
‘And then there’s paralysis.’
It goes especially well with the new option, Paralysis.
‘It would be normal if paralysis didn’t occur easily because the probability is low, but skeletal destruction continuously attacks the bones.’
No matter how low the probability is, if you keep trying, it will eventually activate.
Seo Yi-jun exited the gate with a satisfied heart.
“Hunter!”
The person who calls Seo Yi-jun at the top of his lungs as soon as he leaves the gate.
“Master.”
It was Seonwoo Chan.
“When did you come back?”
Last week, Seonwoochan went to the local blacksmith shop to get rare equipment, but came back empty-handed.
After seeing Seo Yijun off here, I was planning to go down to another local blacksmith shop once he entered the gate.
“Yes, I just got back. The timing is perfect!”
It seemed like he came back just before Seo Yi-jun came out.
But he seemed overly happy.
This isn’t so much a matter of perfect timing as it is…
“You have achieved some results.”
“Huh! No, how did you know?”
This was because he had achieved success on a business trip to the provinces.
however.
“Weapons, armor, accessories! I got them all!”
“… Is that all?”
“yes!”
The results that Seonwoo Chan achieved far exceeded Seo Yijun’s expectations. * * *
Rare equipment.
It is the main weapon of a B-class hunter.
However, not all B-class hunters have rare equipment.
‘Because it’s hard to get.’
Rare equipment is the domain of B-class crafters.
However, the total number of B-class blacksmiths and craftsmen in Korea is only about 70.
Naturally, reservations are fully booked all year round.
‘That’s why Kwon Young-woo could only get a dagger and a coat despite drinking kimchi stew for several years.’
Fortunately, Seo Yi-jun is relatively easy to obtain as he is not restricted by the detailed types and options of equipment.
But even so, how could you get all the weapons, armor, and accessories in such a short period of time?
Even if Yeon Ha-eun, not Seon Woo-chan, decides to sell the name of the management office, it will be difficult.
But how… .
“Don’t worry too much, Hunter.”
“yes?”
“Even if you’re doing a solo raid, it must be burdensome to buy four pieces of rare equipment in a row!”
“… … ?”
It seems that Seo Yi-jun’s silence while he was gathering his thoughts was interpreted in a strange way.
“Don’t worry, there is a loan program for hunters from the Bureau.”
“Sir. That’s it.”
“If I, if it’s not enough, I, I too, I will try to pull it out a little bit!”
Seonwoochan pounded his chest with trembling hands.
They said they would help me by directly lending me money, not even as a guarantee.
‘I appreciate that, though.’
Perhaps before I conquered my obsession with bloodstains.
Nowadays you can buy the entire rare set and still have some money left over.
“It’s not a financial issue.”
“Oh, isn’t it?”
“Yes. I was a little surprised to hear that you got the entire rare set.”
“Hehehe. Who am I? I’m the Hunter’s fulcrum… … , that’s what I want to say. But actually, I was just lucky.”
Seonwoochan coughed lightly.
“This time, on the way back, I stopped by a small workshop run by a B-class blacksmith and a B-class craftsman brother and sister.”
It was a strange thing to say.
Let’s say that siblings work together, and there are siblings Yeon Ha-eun and Yeon Ha-seong.
I understand that we are both in the same production line, and that blood relatives often have similar characteristics.
Just looking at Jose Woo’s family, they are third-generation werebeasts.
“Lastly?”
The strange thing is that I last visited a workshop where there was a B-class blacksmith and a B-class craftsman.
Weapons are the domain of the blacksmith, accessories are the domain of the craftsman, and defensive equipment such as armor is the domain of the blacksmith, while robes and coats are the domain of the craftsman.
If those two are there, it means they have all the rare equipment, so why did they visit last?
Seonwoochan nodded to Seo Yijun’s question.
“It’s been years since the siblings became B-class hunters, but they’ve never once submitted rare equipment.”
“Never? That’s unusual.”
“Yes, that’s why I stopped by with a desperate feeling and found it. I heard that it had been completed recently.”
To that extent, I could definitely say that I was lucky.
“There’s a high chance that other guilds aren’t checking them out either. I’d like to make a reservation while I’m at it.”
Seo Yijun guessed that in the future, he would have to feed rare equipment a few more times for the inheritance items.
But Seonwoochan shook his head.
“I’ve completed the rare set, so I’m retiring. I think the spirit of the craftsman is no longer burning.”
The craftsman’s soul does not burn.
To put it simply, it meant that as a producer, I was heartbroken.
Like the trainees who decided to retire after visiting Eagle Canyon.
Seonwoo Chan added.
“I managed to finish it, but it seems like the siblings specialize in making upper gear rather than high-quality rare gear. That doesn’t seem to be enough… … .”
“… … Master.”
A manufacturer that mass-produces upper equipment.
“I would like to meet them in person as soon as this matter is over.”
Seo Yi-jun was the talent the corps needed.
