Awakening After Divorce

Paper 200 Black Core

[Understanding] continues to be used these days.

The biggest was [Witch’s power], and the second was [Chloride] and [Adamantium]. Of course, deep understanding leads to various uses.

All three were related to ‘Transfer’ of level 10 or higher, so it was literally difficult to ‘understand’ without [Understanding].

Then, one of the things I realized was that Jihoo’s magic skills, which had reached 7 stars, were not yet at the ‘transfer’ level.

‘Eight stars are the real thing.’

That’s when the real magic begins.

Those who hold the title of great wizard and create miracles with a handful of magical power. Those who manifest miracles that are incomprehensible to common sense.

Those were the real wizards.

‘I realize it little by little while understanding the witch’s power, chloride, and adamantium.’

And now [Black Core].

– [Understand] [Black Core].

– The depth of the object is unknown.

– The level of the target is very high.

-The user’s [Intelligence] is considerable.

-The user’s [Spirit] is very high.

-User’s [mana] is high.

-Total understanding: 12%

Jihoo frowned.

12% at once isn’t too bad. However, as Jihoo’s abilities and S-class magic talents recently developed, there was no target that made him work this hard.

“Hmm, I tried it once, but I haven’t touched it, so I’m not confident. Are you planning to stay here for a few days?”

“Originally, I was going to go back today. Because I have to finish the quest quickly.”

Jihoo said while holding the [Black Core].

It was an honest feeling.

“It is true that I want to try making a production with this. But it’s something you don’t know and there’s a chance of failure. But whoever can use this thing properly… … It’s probably hard to find.”

At Jihoo’s words, the leader of [Black Hunter] named Seungcheol Lee nodded. It means you agree to some extent.

“Would you like to give it a try?”

“… … How do I pay the request fee?”

“Can I get another one of these hacks?”

“It is difficult, but… … Let’s save it. Of course, we will exchange it when the production is successful.”

Even when receiving money, the request fee is divided into success and failure. However, for extremely rare and high-difficulty quests of level 10 or higher, they prefer to ‘exchange’ the necessary items.

It simply means that it has a value that cannot be calculated in terms of money.

“It makes sense.”

Jihoo smiled and held out his hand.

Lee Seung-cheol pressed his lips tightly together and held his hand. Expectation and worry were tinged on his face at the same time.

Jihoo took [Queen Wolf Ant’s Spine (Lv. 12)] to Mr. Jiyeol.

“Wow – where did you get this?”

“They say they are [black hunters] active in Africa, but I’ve never seen them before.”

“It’s famous- It’s a mercenary group that goes in and out of the black land like it’s their own house. They’ll usually take on missions like rescue, security, gathering, and target killing.”

“A mission? Not a raid?”

“Yes, as you can see, it is known that the focus is on stealth and mobility rather than devastating destructive power. Are all artifacts like that?”

Jihoo nodded.

Of course, stealth and mobility shouldn’t be considered weak. Even if it’s simply infiltration and ambush, it means that you have to be level 10 or higher to survive in Africa.

“So what are you going to do with it?”

“I want to make the most of the full armor option. It looks a bit different now… … .”

Literally vertebrae.

Ants are exoskeletons, and Wolf Ant is no different. So, there should be no spine, but at the center of the exoskeleton were long joints resembling the human spine, and that was it.

“It’s not like that. You can’t carry it on your back. Usually, I wear it on either side of my legs or wear it around my waist.”

“Can it go that far?”

“No. But breastplates might be better. The quality is so good.”

“Then that’s good too.”

“But will that work?”

If Jihoo dared to bring it to Mr. Jiyeol, it means that another processing is needed, and he was well aware of that.

“It’s level 12, but the durability and stealth options are only advanced. It would be nice if there was a step up processing, but that would be difficult, right?”

“You know this full body armor, right? Instead of being unable to move, it greatly increases defense. It’s difficult step by step with this. It might be better to get rid of this altogether and raise both to superlative.”

“okay. But that’s what I’m trying to fix.”

Jihoo’s purpose was this.

The performance of the body armor is too good. To the extent that if there was only one disadvantage of not being able to move, [Treasure] grade artifacts would come out easily. And I will apply the [black core] that Jihoo [understood] and [modified].

‘If everything goes according to plan… … Something amazing will come out.’

It’s a production request anyway, so someone else will use it, but making it was meaningful in itself.

If you make it once, the second time is easy.

Also, if you get a black core, you can make one Jihoo. Of course, this Queen Wolf Ant would not have a backbone.

‘It will be replaced with something else.’

From nob le mt l. co m

Mr. Jiyeol pondered and thought that it wouldn’t be difficult if that was the case. Doesn’t touch that option at all and only raises defense?

Level 12, but Wolf Ant. Even if it was a queen-class spine, it wouldn’t be impossible even if it was difficult.

“It requires quite a bit of material.”

“It doesn’t matter if it’s expensive, but is it hard to find?”

“There is nothing hidden. I’ll have to refill it. Yes, I’ll do it when it comes tomorrow. Shall we show off our skills after a long time?”

“thank you! Then I would like to ask you a favor.”

Jihoo had to return to the general store and understand [Black Core] with [Understanding]. I only found out when it was time for the sun to rise after staying up all night.

“If the power of a witch is a universal pen that can write stories on the world line, then this is a book that was put into a cutting machine and turned.”

It’s like one book.

If [Witch’s Power] writes a story on a piece of paper called the world line, it feels like a part of the world line on which the story is written has come off.

The clumps of stories were randomly mixed into a pile of papers full of confusion. That’s why it causes nonsensical and abnormal mutations.

Now the question is, how do you use it?

‘The best thing is to correct it with the witch’s power.’

but it’s too much

It takes time to match a book one letter at a time, but there is no guarantee that it will be 100% accurate.

“… … I guess I will have to use SP after all.”

will it be

It will be.

Because SP and [Set Intervention] are invincible. But is it correcting the remnants of that intricate story? Or do they cover it up and just make the packaging look plausible?

I needed to experiment.

[Black Core].

Holding this, Jihoo began contemplating to the depths through [Understanding]. Ordinary people will not be able to tell what it is by looking deep into it.

But Jihoo is visible.

A feast of scattered and randomly mixed letters. It was all a story and I couldn’t interpret it exactly, but it was clear that this had a strong power.

‘I have to change the inside, not the outside.’

Jihoo did not simply explain the [Black Core], but [Viewed] the contents inside.

: … … .

“Yes, here it is.”

unknown characters.

or blank.

It was filled with such things, and Jihoo’s mental strength was shaken just by opening it and checking it.

So I wrote it down quickly.

‘You can’t deviate too much from the original function of the black core. Focusing on mutation… … . Is this why stochastic variation occurs?’

While writing down the contents, Jihoo was able to gain a deeper understanding at the same time. You can’t understand this with a normal way of thinking.

changeable flow.

Irregularity is probability.

Positive and negative are two-sided.

‘This is similar to quantum mechanics.’

Jihoo doesn’t know.

All I did was study watermelon on the surface. But did you try to fully understand this? Even if there was [understanding], it wasn’t 100%.

It was 100% on the overall structure, but it was only an understanding of less than 10% compared to the content.

So, I knew that this was a ‘collection of randomly scattered letters’, but I didn’t know the contents.

At that time, the geothermal man contacted me.

“already?”

It is a story that processing of Wolf Ant’s spine has been completed. Mr. Ji-yeol must have taken good care of me, but I didn’t know it would happen so quickly, so I couldn’t help but worry that something was wrong.

Jihoo went to the smithy with a tired face as he had hardly slept.

“Oh, are you here?”

“Yes, have you finished it already?”

“Yeah, it wasn’t difficult. Was it a better material than you thought? black ground. So it’s Wolf Ant in Africa. So I tried using the earth spirit stone.”

“Was there anything like that?”

“then. I’ve been here several years. Hmmm. Anyway, so it was not difficult to strengthen. I didn’t make it look bad either. It’s a breastplate that goes diagonally across one breast.”

It is a wolf ant’s shell that is black and reddish. In addition, the small horns and the unusual patterns seen as the light was reflected were so beautiful that they were admired.

“… … No, uncle, did you always have such an artistic sense?”

“What do you see me as? I’m in S grade. This is the basics.”

“Well, it’s been an S-class since before. It’s great, Mr.

“hehehe, good job. There could be some pretty good stuff out there. This trigger is to inject magical power to match a specific pattern, but I set it as default. You can adjust yourself. The body is almost a tight-fitting suit, but the head is shaped like a helmet with both eyes and mouth open.”

The shape just came to mind.

It was partly because Wolf Ant’s shell itself was so unique and beautiful, but partly because Jihoo became emotional as soon as he saw the equipment.

『Wolf Ant’s Full Body Armor [Ground/Chitin] [History] [Lv. 12]』

: Full body armor made from Queen Wolf Ant’s spine. Unique defense and ductility. Completed with the Queen’s defensive instinct, the modified full body armor boasts extreme defensive power.

* [Superlative Intensity Amplification]

* [Advanced Transmutation Amplification]

* [Advanced Stealth]

* [Wolf Ant’s Full Body Armor]

It’s not bad.

No, this is top notch.

The basic material was level 12, and the basic state and the full body armor state were transformed and processed, and the strength was raised one notch.

“… … It’s a shame it’s such a nice basic thing.”

Ji-hoo is no longer angry with things like this.

If you directly fix it with [Setup Intervention], the rating will go up by one. But even that is not enough.

‘Black core.’

Jihoo was revising the content of the hack. It was difficult and difficult, but not impossible. But the concept was also important for this.

And the proper concept was in front of me.

‘Because I decided to strengthen it with this anyway.’

The reward is another [black core].

Even if the approximate price alone is a thing that amounts to hundreds of billions. It is rare to find, but it is many times more difficult to obtain.

If there was no way to utilize it, the value would be low and stocks would be piled up, but it is an important energy source in Africa.

‘But the experience is much bigger than the reward.’

I think this is practice.

And with the newly obtained [Black Core], you can upgrade Jihoo’s Artifact.

“Now, how shall we make it?”

No matter how you modify this, only positive options do not come out. If you want to raise something, you have to raise the other side to balance it out.

But that’s a joke too.

It was not difficult for Jihoo, who had a lot of experience in this regard.
