#Episode 81.
I quickly scanned the message and stroked my chin thoughtfully.
“A B-rank facility… the Golem Crafting Workshop.”
This was the first time I’d seen such a message in the Territory.
‘Actually, this entire situation is unprecedented.’
I’d discovered rare resources before, but finding an intact facility was a first.
Fortunately, I possessed knowledge about such circumstances.
‘They said the Unclaimed Territory contains not just rare resources, but also abandoned facilities like this.’
However, that’s all I knew.
Detailed explanations didn’t appear anywhere online, no matter how thoroughly I searched.
Either information was restricted, or it was valuable enough to be shared only within the Guild.
“Still, B-rank doesn’t seem too bad.”
Logically, there should be ranks from A-grade down to E or F-grade, right?
With that thought, I surveyed the interior of the facility.
“It’s a mess.”
Unsurprisingly, the facility’s interior condition was far from pristine.
Not just from the recent battle.
Golems with their cores extracted lay scattered about, but even setting those aside, the overall state was deplorable.
I doubted whether the machinery deeper inside would function properly, and upon closer inspection, the area where the Golems had emerged was riddled with cracks.
Clack—
As I examined the surroundings, Karon and Kuhuelt clicked their jaws together.
They seemed to be asking if they had any tasks.
“Ah, check if anything stands out. You too, Onyx.”
—Understood.
Karon and Kuhuelt diligently searched the area, while Onyx poked his head out slightly from his armor and looked around.
Before long, Onyx extended his head further and spoke.
—Master. There’s something over there.
“Hm? Where?”
—Behind the machinery.
I walked in the direction Onyx indicated.
Indeed, something lay behind the machinery. It resembled a small crystal sphere, positioned atop a slender pedestal.
Upon seeing it, I instinctively sensed something and placed my hand upon it.
Whoosh—
Mana surged into it, and immediately, blue light erupted from the crystal sphere.
I wondered if this might be a trap, but fortunately, it wasn’t.
“Oh.”
The light pouring from the crystal sphere converged into a single point, forming a holographic image.
Reading it, the information pertained to this facility.
[Golem Crafting Workshop]
[Rank: B]
[Status: Normal Operation Impossible]
It felt somewhat similar to a status window.
Jung Han-sung pondered for a moment before reaching his hand toward the status section.
The light flickered and shifted, then displayed different information.
[Detailed Status]
[Power Source: None]
[Security Device Durability: 31%]
[Core Device Durability: 57%]
[The crafting facility cannot be properly utilized in its current state. Repairs are necessary.]
“I see. So that’s how it works.”
After reading through the information, I wondered if there was anything else to check, so I touched the section labeled “Power Source.”
A brilliant flash erupted.
Light burst forth from the crystal once more, illuminating the device.
I turned my head toward it and quickly realized the light was pointing to a specific location.
It was a groove in the middle of the device, and it was currently empty.
Onyx, who had been observing alongside me, seemed to understand what it meant and spoke.
―That appears to be where the power source was located, Master.
“That’s what it seems like.”
As I touched the other sections, the light pointed to different locations each time.
The security devices were scattered throughout—the golems and the entrance I had come through.
The core device seemed to refer to the large apparatus I had been observing.
“I should head back.”
I had confirmed everything worth checking.
It seemed I would need to return earlier than planned and discuss this facility with Baek-seol.
She understood the Territory far better than I did.
“Stay inside for now.”
I reached toward Karon and Kuhuelt. They transformed back into bone fragments and entered my hand.
After placing the bone fragments away, I slowly exited the workshop.
I closed the door and climbed the Staircase, stepping onto the ground above.
Rumble, rumble, rumble—
The entrance closed on its own.
After confirming this, I immediately turned back toward the Village.
The journey here had taken a long time, but only because I had walked leisurely like taking a stroll.
When I quickened my pace with purpose, I returned to the Village in no time.
“You’re back early!”
The moment I entered the Village, Baek-seol noticed my return and rushed over.
I nodded and replied.
“Yes. I discovered something while exploring the Territory.”
“Really? What did you find?”
“An abandoned facility.”
“A facility?”
At those words, Baek-seol’s ears perked up attentively.
Jung Han-sung explained to her about the Golem Crafting Workshop he had discovered.
After hearing everything, Baek-seol wagged her tail enthusiastically and spoke.
“That’s amazing! You neutralized those golems so effortlessly! And if it’s a B-rank facility, that’s truly extraordinary luck!”
“Really? Is it that impressive?”
“Yes!”
It seemed Baek-seol possessed considerable knowledge about facilities.
“Then let’s sit over there and talk about it.”
“Okay!”
Jung Han-sung and Baek-seol went to sit on a chair placed at the edge of the Village.
Baek-seol hopped onto the chair, settled herself, and began explaining what she knew.
“First, facilities are a concept that encompasses everything constructed through the Core!”
“Ah, so this cottage and the fence—those are all facilities too?”
“Yes!”
“But the facilities here didn’t seem to have separate ranks attached to them?”
“That’s because they’re all basic facilities. To be precise, they’re D-rank or lower, which is why they don’t display a separate designation!”
According to Baek-seol’s explanation, facilities are divided into ranks from S to F.
The facilities currently built or planned for construction are all D-rank or lower, so they simply don’t show a separate designation even after construction is decided.
“If you manipulate the window during construction, you should be able to check what rank it is beforehand.”
“So later on, I’ll be able to build facilities up to S-rank?”
“Through the Core, you can only construct up to A-rank. S-rank and above require different methods.”
Jung Han-sung nodded in understanding.
Since that wasn’t particularly important yet, he recalled the Golem Crafting Workshop’s rank and asked again.
“So B-rank is pretty decent then?”
“It goes far beyond decent—it’s a jackpot! Even better than the Mana Stone Cave!”
“Oh, really?”
“Yes. With B-rank, you’d normally only be able to build it after your Territory has developed much further. Being able to simply repair and use it immediately is an enormous windfall.”
“I see.”
After hearing this explanation, I realized just how fortunate I truly was.
‘Perhaps the ability didn’t guide me here solely for the Mana Stone Cave and rare herbs.’
The channel I had subscribed to back then merely guided me toward places where fortune’s aura flowed.
Finding exactly what was the source of that aura in those places was entirely my responsibility.
Well, in any case, this was good fortune for me.
‘I’ve chosen the Territory location well.’
With that thought, I asked Baek-seol.
“Want to go take a look?”
“Yes! A quick visit won’t be a problem!”
“Good. Let’s head there quickly then.”
“Okay!”
Since facility management ultimately fell to Baek-seol as well, Jung Han-sung headed toward the Golem Crafting Workshop with her.
“Wow!”
Shortly after arriving at the workshop, Baek-seol’s eyes sparkled as she surveyed the interior.
“It really does feel like a high-end facility, doesn’t it?”
“Does it?”
“Yes! With preservation this good, repairs will require significant resources, but once we finish, it should be able to operate normally!”
“Hmm. That device over there seemed to lack power though?”
“For now, we can use Mana Stones! And later, once we obtain proper equipment, we can replace it.”
“Ah. Then there’s no problem.”
Baek-seol wagged her tail excitedly as she surveyed the entire workshop, then spoke.
“I’ll take charge of the repairs!”
“Good. I’m counting on you.”
Since she spoke with such confidence, Jung Han-sung answered with a smile and then addressed her again.
“Then I’ll finish surveying the Territory and head back. You can return alone, right?”
“Yes!”
After leaving the workshop, Baek-seol immediately returned to the Village, while Jung Han-sung moved on to inspect areas he hadn’t yet explored.
He had hoped to discover something else, but unfortunately, as he finished surveying the entire Territory, nothing particularly noteworthy caught his eye.
‘Well, I’ve already found three things.’
The Mana Stone Cave, rare medicinal herbs, and the Golem Crafting Workshop.
Others would envy having even one such resource or facility, so obtaining three was more than enough—anything beyond that would be greed.
Jung Han-sung shook his head and returned to the Village. There, he approached Baek-seol, who was busily issuing orders, and spoke.
“I’m going to stop by the Unique Space and rest at home.”
“Yes! Have a good trip!”
Receiving Baek-seol’s farewell, Jung Han-sung moved directly to the Unique Space.
“Let me see.”
Upon arriving in the Unique Space, Jung Han-sung immediately walked toward one direction.
To the place where I had stored Arachne’s corpse.
Arachne’s corpse wasn’t merely preserved—it now emanated a far stronger aura than before, thanks to the secret technique I had deployed earlier.
Judging by the aura alone, it was nearly comparable to her strength in life.
‘Right after the battle ended, the damage was quite severe.’
This only proved how remarkable the secret technique I had repeatedly subscribed to was.
“I’ve grasped the basic principles, but I should subscribe to it once more later.”
I had already mastered synthesis well enough to deploy it immediately without issue.
But with reinforcement, I lacked confidence if asked to do it again. I simply hadn’t used it enough.
Jung Han-sung decided he would verify things once the subscription ability upgrade was complete, then retrieved a bone fragment.
“Kuhuelt.”
Calling out the name, I threw the bone fragment to the ground, and Kuhuelt appeared.
“From what I can tell, the reinforcement secret technique should be complete in about 70 hours. So you wait in contact with Arachne’s corpse.”
Clack!
Kuhuelt clicked his jaw in acknowledgment, then walked toward Arachne’s corpse and placed both hands upon it.
Jung Han-sung confirmed the sight before him, then promptly returned outside—specifically, to his home.
Whoosh—
With the familiar vertigo came his home’s welcome.
“First I’ll eat, wash up, rest a bit, then head back.”
Though not exhausted, Jung Han-sung intended to remain in the Territory for an extended period following this return, so he proceeded with his plan without delay.
Over the next four days, Jung Han-sung stayed in the Territory alongside Baek-seol, handling various matters.
He constructed additional facilities and accepted newcomers who arrived at the Village as residents.
As his Reputation increased, he hired several new people as well.
In between, he ventured beyond the Territory’s borders with the Undead, engaging in combat.
Only weak monsters inhabited the surrounding areas, so it hardly served as proper training, yet it made for decent recreation nonetheless.
Exactly seventy-two hours after beginning the upgrade.
[The upgrade has been completed.]
A message materialized before Jung Han-sung’s eyes.
Mid-conversation with Baek-seol, Jung Han-sung paused and observed the message.
[Would you like to check the updated subscription window?]
Another message appeared in succession.
Jung Han-sung saw it and slowly nodded.
“Yes. I’ll check.”
The message vanished, and in its place, a massive subscription window materialized before his eyes.
Jung Han-sung’s eyes widened at the sight.
Channels multiplied several times over. New features were contained within.
