Episode 130

[The production of 100 ‘Lowest-Grade Healing Potions’ commissioned to Alton has been completed.]

Already?!

It had only been a few seconds since he used the production function!

At the completion notification that appeared at an unexpected timing.

Choi Hyun-min’s eyes widened in surprise.

‘Items… can be made this quickly? Not just one or two, but a hundred of them?’

For items like potions that were used frequently, the ability for mass production was just as important as their performance.

Things like swords or armor only needed to be carefully crafted once.

They could be used semi-permanently until they were lost or broken.

But potions were items that required at least several.

And at most dozens or more when hunting even a single floor.

And when you added in the various types used for healing and removing various debuffs.

The amount one person used in a day was quite substantial.

That’s why guilds like Heukpung that focused on production business.

Often treated production-class hunters who could manufacture items like their lifeblood.

But…

‘Even if they’re lowest-grade items… was there any place that could produce 100 potions in just a few seconds like this?’

The production capacity of Alton that he had just experienced.

Was at a level incomparable to any production guild Choi Hyun-min knew of.

And what was truly surprising was something else.

[Due to the 200% production increase effect, additional results will be provided.]

“Wh… What did it say?!”

Choi Hyun-min, who had frozen in place after reading the message for a moment.

He opened his subspace with a hopeful heart.

“Wo, woooah…”

He had hoped, but.

The moment he opened the subspace.

He was faced with healing potions packed densely inside.

“One, two, three… How many are there in total?”

He had definitely used materials for 100.

And had commissioned the production of only 100 items.

But the completed result was a whopping 300!

Just as the system notification said, a 200% increased result had popped out.

Choi Hyun-min, as if he couldn’t believe it.

Counted the number with his own eyes several times repeatedly.

-How did you find it, Savior? This is the true power of the great city, Alton!

Ian, who had been watching Choi Hyun-min’s reaction.

As soon as he saw the response, he strode over.

With both hands on his hips, he leaned back as if it was his own achievement.

-What are you talking about, Ian. You left Alton long ago. You’re talking as if you made them yourself.

At that sight, Todur’s displeased grumbling could be heard.

But Ian just shrugged his shoulders.

-I only temporarily left Alton to learn magic. If I, who was born and raised in Alton, can’t say such things, who can?

-What a ridiculous fellow.

The voices of the two bickering people rang clearly in his ears.

But it wasn’t a big problem for Choi Hyun-min.

He was completely captivated by the miracle that had unfolded before his eyes.

Alton’s production system had completely stolen his soul.

“Then… can I try making other items too?”

What he had just made was merely for testing purposes.

Practically speaking, lowest-grade healing potions didn’t have that many outlets.

There weren’t that many newly awakened hunters.

And those exploring the upper floors of the labyrinth-

That is, those exploring below the 10th floor didn’t use that many potions either.

‘The items that would really sell well would probably be high-grade healing potions. And… functional items.’

Choi Hyun-min, who had been pondering.

Had he heard his muttering?

Todur, who had been bickering with Mage Ian-

The Village Chief of Alton pushed Ian aside and took a step toward Choi Hyun-min.

-Savior. The current Alton lacks the capacity to make better items.

“Capacity?”

-That’s right. The original Alton could pour out much higher quality items than what you see now… but after being attacked by those gargoyles, the skilled craftsmen also went somewhere.

Ah, I see.

Choi Hyun-min recalled the system window he had seen earlier.

Alton’s production level itself was definitely said to be level 1.

“Then if we bring those people back, we could make high-tier items like before?”

-Of course! The facilities were also lost, but didn’t you, Savior, restore all the old buildings and facilities! If we can get skilled people who can use them, we can make as many as we want!

We need to bring craftsmen.

Real craftsmen.

If it meant bringing hunters with high-level production skills.

Todur’s words were practically impossible conditions.

‘The price for those people would be ridiculously expensive.’

Due to the small number of production-class hunters.

High-level production classes were expensive.

And most of them belonged to high-tier guilds specializing in production.

Even with money, they weren’t people who could be easily recruited.

But Choi Hyun-min didn’t give up there.

‘Even now, production is done through the power of skills and systems… couldn’t craftsmen be obtained that way too?’

Choi Hyun-min, who had been examining the city management window in various ways.

‘Wait. Then… can’t the production system be upgraded like other functions?’

He discovered a small footnote attached to a corner of the system.

[Alton Function Enhancement]

[Production: Currently Level 1]

[Level increase possible: 1000 points required]

[Invite skilled craftsmen to Alton to help with your production.]

‘Found it!’

The moment he discovered the message hidden like hide-and-seek.

Choi Hyun-min’s eyes sparkled.

He had almost missed it.

The Transcendent Lord’s ability.

The ability to strengthen subordinate creatures and owned villages.

Seemed to apply to Alton’s newly acquired production function as well.

Then…

‘Let’s upgrade the production level!’

He had 7900 Lord Points remaining.

Usually, he would use accumulated points to increase scientific power.

‘With these points right now, it’s far from enough to achieve scientific power increase level 9.’

The return from using a few thousand points here would be much greater.

Choi Hyun-min judged so.

“Production level increase.”

[1000 Lord Points will be consumed to raise Alton’s production level to 2.]

[Do you wish to proceed?]

“Yes.”

A mere thousand points.

At the system’s question, Choi Hyun-min nodded without a moment’s hesitation.

At that moment.

Whoosh!

In front of Choi Hyun-min.

That is, between Choi Hyun-min and Todur, a massive ball of light appeared.

About two heads shorter in height than Choi Hyun-min.

A large white light source scattered light in all directions.

Then slowly began losing its light from the top, starting to reveal its original color.

-Uh, what?!

Was he startled by the suddenly appearing ball of light?

Todur staggered backward, swaying.

The moment he made eye contact with the being that emerged from within the light.

He froze solid like a statue.

-Belen…! Wh, why are you…!

-Well, look at this. Isn’t that Todur!

What was revealed as the light receded.

Was a middle-aged dwarf man of short stature.

Dwarf Belen, wearing carelessly torn and singed leather clothes.

He lightly raised his hand toward Todur.

Then.

Turned his body to stare directly this way.

-Thank you, new Master.

“Huh?”

-Since you pulled me out from the abyss, it’s only right that I serve you as my master.

Then he knelt on one knee toward Choi Hyun-min.

As his left knee touched the ground, his short, sturdy thigh swelled as if about to burst.

This caused his tattered leather pants to tear open with a ripping sound.

But he didn’t move a muscle, as if he didn’t care about such things as clothes.

“I… pulled you out from the abyss?”

-Death, for us dwarves, means entering the eternal abyss… Bringing me back to life means pulling me out from the abyss, doesn’t it?

…A dead person.

No, a dead dwarf?

Choi Hyun-min’s eyes widened at this unexpected reaction.

-Huhuhu! I thought you were dead for sure, but how did you come back to life like this, Belen…! Uhuhuh!

Meanwhile.

Todur watched the dwarf with tears welling up in his eyes.

He ran over like flying and hugged the dwarf, crying for a long while.

-I’m fine. I did die in a rather rough way… But didn’t Master give me a new life as a gift? That’s enough.

So… that person, the dwarf was originally dead, but just came back to life.

And the reason is because of the production skill level-up I used?

[Alton Village production level: 2 achieved!]

[New higher-tier items can now be produced in Alton Village.]

Choi Hyun-min’s eyebrows twitched at the subsequent notification.

The crafting list expanded instantly.

Just by raising it one level.

Dozens of items appeared at once.

‘Intermediate healing potions appeared too… And tons of auxiliary items increased?’

Not only that, but items that served as intermediate materials were also newly created.

That means.

‘If done well, Alton Village alone could produce what several other guilds were making all at once?’

Manwol did manufacture and process items too.

But that was only part of commissioned work.

Manwol’s main source of income was the spoils obtained while exploring and descending the labyrinth.

The consumables used in that process naturally had to be bought from other guilds.

So expenses inevitably had to increase accordingly.

‘With this… it could be a great help to Manwol!’

According to what Chairman Choi had told him.

After conquering Belmerer, all consumable items had become worthless.

Then wouldn’t now be the perfect time to step into item crafting?

‘Right. I’ll use all my remaining points to level up as much as possible.’

Originally, he planned to stop production level-up at level 2 and save Lord Points.

But having seen the results.

He intended to pour in all possible points.

[2000 Lord Points will be consumed to raise Alton’s production level to 3.]

[Do you wish to-]

“Yes.”

[4000 Lord Points will be consumed…]

“Yes.”

There was no need to listen to the system.

Choi Hyun-min had made up his mind.

He poured in all remaining points without any hesitation.

One thousand, two thousand, four thousand points.

As a result of consuming a total of 7000 points.

[Alton Village production level: 4 achieved!]

[New higher-tier items can now be produced in Alton Village.]

Alton’s production level, which had been only level 1, shot up to level 4.

Along with that, two more dwarf craftsmen appeared before his eyes.

-Oh, so this is the Master who brought us back to life?

-Whatever you command us to make, we’ll create it with our lives!

While they bowed their heads toward him repeatedly.

Choi Hyun-min’s eyes remained focused solely on the production system.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Notification sounds that rang out continuously right after the craftsmen’s revival(?).

The moment messages appeared before his eyes along with those sounds.

A bright smile bloomed on Choi Hyun-min’s face.

[You can now craft Supreme Healing Potions.]

[Supreme Antidote Potions can…]

‘Yes! This is exactly it!’
