Level Up

< Future Industry 4 >

Jared turns his head to look around, puzzled.

“Hey, where the hell am I? ”

No matter how much I looked around, there was no one. At that moment, a string of stones and kettlers popped out of the air.

“Aah!”

Jared pounces on the back of his buttocks. Then, sitting down, Hudda retreated.

However, I soon found out who they were and sighed for relief.

“Great, where the hell are we? ”

“Figure it out. ”

Hyun-seok walked forward, leaving only that word.

Their location was a shallow clearing, surrounded by dense trees.

It was a natural place in the middle of the forest.

Jared looks around, thinking like that, and follows the string and kettler.

There was only one way out of the forest. The hard path, not even the trees, is slightly crooked.

Along the side, tall trees were rising like walls, and the sky was blue.

Wait, is it daylight? ’

It was definitely night, but I didn't know when it was so bright.

Anyway, the air was fresh and the atmosphere was good. It was much better than walking in a park. Except I don't know where I am, but I'm nervous.

The forest wasn't that big. Soon after, I was able to escape the forest.

Jared leaps out of the forest, seething without his knowledge.

“Wow."

There was such a beautiful view.

The forest was formed in a slightly elevated area. In other words, the place where they stood was on a high hill.

So I could look down at the view from above, looking down the hill.

It was truly spectacular.

There was a vast field, and there was a robbery across it.

The river reflects light and shines all over, but it looks like a river made of gold.

And the unnamed grass and flowers filled the fields were creating really beautiful scenery.

At the end of the field, an enormous castle rises.

Perhaps the destination was that adult.

Jared takes his first steps because it was something anyone could have guessed if he wasn't a fool.

I wanted to quickly go through that beautiful field and enter the magnificent castle that looks far away.

There was a path in the field. A road made up of solid ground that doesn't have any weeds.

Jared makes a quick walk ahead of you, and the stonemason and kettler follow behind him casually.

“There are two entrances here, too, right? ”

“I didn't know that until now, but there were more dungeons like it than I thought. ”

“Dungeons... I guess that's what you call this place. ”

“Do you have another name, then? ”

Kettler shakes his head.

“If I don't even know why I was there, do you think I even know my name? It's just... I'm just curious. And I wonder. ”

“I'm curious now, actually. What the hell is this world and what has happened that has broken them apart like this? ”

“Can he get that far away from us? Looks like... we're not done here... yet. Isn't it?”

Hyun-seok nods, shining his eyes.

“It's not as dangerous as I thought. They're no big deal, so it's okay to leave them behind on purpose. ”

“Well, I don't think it's a big deal...... but I think that guy too... ”

As they speak, Jared suddenly runs screaming.

“Ahhhh! Maduda! There's a shotgun!”

On the other hand, the way down would be much faster and less powerful, but Jared was running towards the top with a stone and a kettler.

“What the hell is Mathew doing here?! ”

Jared whistles a question into his screams.

Then, behind him, a man with a rat-looking face was chasing the lid with a stone axe.

I was covered in short fur like a rat, which made me look even weirder.

But he wasn't as strong as he looked.

It was a family of Stone Rats that I left behind on purpose. They didn't have horseshoes, and they didn't have anything useful on the bodies.

Moreover, the breeding power was so extreme that even the negligence of the faction surged.

That castle was originally taken over by this tribe of Stone Rats.

It was all organized by Hyun-seok himself.

“Help me!”

Jared shouts.

Hyun-seok shakes his hand lightly.

Whoo-hoo!

“Kieeek!”

He flies back to see what shocked him. You roll the floor straight down, and then get up and run away somewhere.

“Well, what is it? What the hell is that? ”

“Stone Rat.”

Jared shakes his head at the words of the stone. That's what you're asking yourself.

“No, why are there horses here? Are you raising them artificially? ”

Hyun-seok tilted his head for a moment and thought. Is this breeding?

“I don't think it's breeding. They reproduce and grow on their own anyway. ”

“Yes?”

Jared looks at the stone with a silly look on his face.

“Really...... Did you really pull the magic out of the dungeon? Why would you do such a dangerous thing? ”

“They're not that dangerous. ”

“That's it for the players! Just for me...! ”

“And I didn't pull him out of the dungeon. ”

“Then that just.... ”

Jared mutters like that and his complexion shifts. He once again shifts his head and looks around.

“Th-that can't be... that can't be... here... ”

“Yes, it's a dungeon. ”

Hyundai answered and walked past Jared in a volatile forward.

Kettler walks side-by-side by the stone. And as I walked by Jared, I gave him a glimpse.

Jared shakes his head as Kettler makes eye contact.

“Now, wait a minute! You should take me with you! ”

Jared quickly regains his senses and follows closely behind the stonemason and kettler.

They walked to the castle like that.

Stone Rats appear in the middle, but when they see the marble and Jared, they hesitate for a long time and then disappear again.

“I still don't understand. I think there are some weaklings like that one in the castle... Why are they just letting those witches go? You won't have to bother me if I wipe it out. ”

“I think it might be useful later. ”

“Later? You use those horses? Hmm."

Kettler tilts his head for a moment, then turns off his nerves. It was something I couldn't figure out until I thought about it more.

In the meantime, I've been watching the fence, and I haven't spent much time on anything awkward.

He also achieved something when he decided to do it.

So maybe there's something there, too. Something that Kettler can't even imagine.

Suddenly, they arrived at the castle entrance.

Actually, it wasn't as far as I thought. It was just a short conversation and a short walk away to get there quickly.

When I looked closely, the castle was much bigger than I expected. The gate was amazing.

Five or six large container trucks were large enough to pass side by side.

And there was a huge moat surrounding the castle. There was water flowing through the moat, and when I looked closely, there was something in the water.

“You buy fish, too? ”

Jared sticks his head out to get a closer look at what's in the water.

At that moment something popped out of the water.

Gaaaah!

“Ugh!”

Jared is startled by someone pulling at the back of his head. But at the same time, he was even more surprised to see a giant fish-shaped horse bite where his head was.

“Well, well, well, what! What the hell is that? ”

Kettler said, tucking Jared's neck.

“Don't you see? It's corn. Raising corn in a moat is a very traditional way. Looks like a... swordfish to me. The moat horse is the best. ”

“Ka, swordfish……. ”

“It's named after you because your teeth are sharp like knives. A predator can be half as big as another mouth. ”

Jared swallows dry saliva. I was about to become that half-beast.

Eww!

Bang!

The dodo bridge is down.

The group crosses the bridge above the moat.

Jared walks along the center of the bridge. I went to the side and couldn't breathe because I was afraid of running.

‘I shouldn't have come. Why would I come here? ’

It was too late to regret it. Thinking about going back later, it became dark again.

So the three of them entered the castle.

The inside of the castle was clearly different from what it looked like from the outside. There were more sales booths everywhere.

In the middle, there was a flat stone path that led to the castle.

“This is how the black market works. But the size is……. ”

There are tons of booths on the side of the road, but that's not the way to go on the black market.

Jared races through the black market to see if he didn't think it was a good idea.

I also checked the inside of the castle.

The conclusion that I came to was truly remarkable.

This was much larger than the pyramid black market.

Moreover, no matter what happened, the size of the castle I saw outside was completely different from the size of the inside.

The more I went inside, the more I had to be surprised. Even if I just turned the hallway, there was a space for all the playgrounds.

There were dozens of such playgrounds inside the castle, so I thought I might get lost at the last moment.

I wonder how big such a place is with layers.

‘This much...... isn't it much bigger than the Emperor Tower I heard about? ’

Jared continued to wander around the castle thinking that.

Then I arrived at the top floor of the castle, which was made up of genuine space.

There was also a huge space that was completely different from the size of the top layer of the castle that I saw outside.

What was unusual was that this was not a place for business. It was definitely a place to make things.

There were instruments for chemical experiments, and there were machines for simple iterations.

“What the hell is this place...? ”

The answer was given by a string of characters who appeared shortly after.

“It's a Ferrine Exquisite factory. ”

“Ugh!”

Jared turns away, startled by the voice he hears behind him. He swept his chest once and grumbled as he looked at the stone.

“Gee, keep up the good work. We're going to need at least ten hearts. ”

Then I remembered what Hyun-seok just said.

I've already heard of Ferrine Eggs.

There are still only three items for the future industry to sell in New York.

One was a healing potion exclusively for the player and the other was also a power-up kit exclusively for the player.

The two were already quite famous, so it was just like that. I also thought that I would make a lot of money.

But the last thing I had to do was bend my head when I told him I was selling a nutritional supplement called ferrine extract.

I was curious and curious that this is where the Ferrine Exquis was made.

“What the hell is Ferrine Express? ”

“Do you know what Ferrine is? ”

“Yes. I've studied dungeons and horses in my own way. It's a very common and weak insect-type mascot. ”

Hyun-seok nods. Jared spoke out of excitement.

“And it's a very useless piece of magic. It's weak, there's nothing to pull out of the corpse, and there's hardly any cobblestone. ”

“It's hardly coming out, it's not coming out. The Horseman doesn't exist in the first place. ”

“Well, is it? ”

In fact, that part was unknown to Jared. Horseshoe without a cobblestone in the first place. So, of course, you can't get the horseshoe.

But I couldn't figure out what was so good about pulling Exyx out of a Ferrine like that.

Jared stares at the stone with his face full of such curiosity.

“The reason there is no stone tablet is because its power is evenly distributed throughout the body. ”

Jared's eyes widen.

“So if we pull out Eggs, it's going to be like a stable stone? ”

The stone shakes its head.

“It turns into a material of a completely different nature. It's like a special tablet was made in Ferreine's body. ”

“If you……. ”

“If you refine it in a special way, you'll have a good nutritional supplement. ”

“Ah……. ”

Jared was able to see what was going on. He said he would sell nutritional supplements extracted from wheat grass.

‘By the way...... Will people buy and eat such uncomfortable nutrition? Water supply is so overwhelming... But there won't be any problem... ’

Jared's thoughts flew clean to the words of the next stone.

“Ferrain Eggs enhances all human abilities. Vision, hearing, strength, endurance, vitality. ”

“Yes? Energy? ”

“Plus, no side effects, and if you take them regularly, they're minor, but they're permanent. ”

Jared opens his eyes and swallows his thirsty saliva.

This was perhaps... … I thought it might bring something even greater than the stable refining business.
