chapter 219 – Building a Castle(7)



-You ate grilled heat lizard. The penalty has vanished due to the Resist Fireskill.

-Resist Fire skill proficiency hasincreased.

-Resist Fire ability has increased by 20% until the meat isdigesting.

Kang Shin-hyuk felt anxious as he cooked the fire lizard, but once he removed its blood and cleaned the skin, he gradually became more confident.

However, he was still worried about what that penalty would have been had he not possessed the resist fireskill.

"Is it okay?"

"It feels like something is burning inside, but it's okay. I can digest it right away." It was a technique beyond modern humans, but she seemed to be telling the truth.

"Are you doing that with an ability?"

"Yes. This way, you can consume a lot of energy in a short time.

Isn't it awesome?" However, it had the disadvantage of making one hungry quicker. Shu said so and laughed as she tried to put the skewered lizard in the furnace.

[Don't disturb us.]

"Hng, but it's delicious baked in that furnace." That's because it was a furnace that had reached the X-grade, at least.

So not only metal could be made in it, but also delicious food. Kang Shin-hyuk thought briefly of using it to sell skewers on earth but put that thought aside. It would be an insult to the artifact.

-But it really is miraculous. The downside of being vulnerable to cold still remains, but except for that, it is a furnace any blacksmith would covet.

'Right.

It was worth it coming here to make it.'

-A 500,000HP bonus to members who create objects that will be remembered through a world's history!

Even though it was vulnerable to the cold, the water orb embedded in it would protect it from water and the cold. It would take an ability of SS-rank or higher to destroy it at that point.

However, he had to admit it had oneflaw.

'No fire.' It could withstand incredible heat and hold it, but it could not create such a flame. Most hearth-shaped artifacts sold in modern times (though there weren't many) could create sparks on their own.

Kang Shin-hyuk also wanted to create such a furnace, but the result was instead a product that was thoroughly faithful to a furnace's original purpose.

"I have to get the fire." Therefore, even now, Kang Shin-hyuk was observing the Yeomin with hawk eyes as they emitted their special flame to light thefurnace.

'Isn't it impossible for me to learn that myself?'

-It is the Yeomin's ability.

Moreover, you already have two specialabilities.

Yes, much like it was impossible to replicate the energy of the Golden Dragon born of his trait, it was impossible for him to mimic their energy. If so, what about creating a medium that could store that flame in large quantities?

Like a fire orb, forexample.

'Well, an orb won't just pop out because I want one.' It wouldn't be easy to find or make such a thing; even the water orb had been the greatest treasure Kieron had to offer. But, hadn't Shu told Kang Shin-hyuk he could receive fire as a reward? He didn't know the details about the reward because he wasn't in charge of the dimensional quest.

The administrator might explain, but that didn't mean he could get it anyearlier.

"Grandpa, what will you do? Can you make one more furnace?"

"I thought about it, but it can't be helped because of the orbs. How about just grilling it with a lizard'sflame?"

"Hm? I think that will be okay too!" It was an extremely cruel idea, but Shu nodded like it was a good one.

Then, a few more fire-lizards would be captured when the next wavecame.

[It would be nice for it to be peaceful.]

"Well, you only have to stop the lizards." Kwati, who was in charge of commanding everyone, complained beside him. Shu was doing well enough, keeping them safe; weren't they the ones who were lacking so far?

Not that Kang Shin-hyuk said such things out loud.

[Pour more!]

[You're already tired? Hurry up! You're not even done with one lap!]

Now the Yeomin had been divided into three groups that were working diligently. The soil evenly spread over the basin was collected and poured into the furnace, a flame was poured in to make bricks, and the finished bricks were carted away to build the walls.

Of course, even an hour after starting, they had completed less than 1%. When he first made plans, it seemed like they could finish it sooner, but it was no joke to build a 60-kilometer long wall.

"Slightly lower theheight…?"

[No, do 50 meters as planned. At that level, we can completely block any enemy.]

[Rather, I think we could raise it to 100 meters.]
