Stuck in The Tower - Chapter 343
Chapter 343 Shall We Start Business?
What Geneta, who obtained the power source, created… There were two things in total.
Both were familiar objects, but there were some differences.
at first.
[Unstable Arcane Gem (AA)]
– Unstable, but good output.
– Your rating and stability will go up if you take the right actions.
– In case of homunculus, it can be absorbed as an auxiliary energy source.
It was an Arcane Gem.
The rating itself is AA. You might think it’s not great, but the top model of the arcane gem is S grade.
That it’s not that bad, two levels below the superlative.
Sage John Trailer is an expert in alchemy as he was a person who climbed with a homunculus. It must have been possible enough to fix unstable arcane gems.
Even if it wasn’t for that, it would have been useful if other homunculi needed a power source in a hurry.
“Not often. If you overdo it, it goes into sleep mode.”
“I think so. Is it specialized in alchemy?”
“Similar to the role of a supporter.”
It’s definitely not the battle side. Because it seems that all functions are driven here.
That alone is interesting, but what really bothers me is something else.
It was a transparent jewel, but the appearance was familiar. Nothing else but this…
“It’s a soul stone.”
“A must for homunculus when climbing.”
It was also a soul stone without a soul.
[Empty Soul Stone (AA)]
– A soul stone that does not contain a soul.
-If the other person agrees, maybe you can contain the soul?
I’ve always only seen someone’s soul in it, but when it’s empty it looks like this. It looks like a clear crystal.
I was wondering how to make a soul stone, but was it like this?
The grade itself may be normal, but the soul stone is quite rare.
I haven’t seen many of them while climbing until now.
“Needed to create a homunculus. When we fight, our bodies get damaged and we replace them.”
“Am I taking out the soul separately and putting it in a new body?”
“answer.”
“In a way, it’s immortal.”
“It’s like being half alive. Because it’s not a real body. There is also a human rights controversy.”
What Geneta said is right. First of all, a homunculus is classified as an NPC because it has a soul.
It was meant to be acknowledged as a single person, but I’m sure there will be people who see it as a golem.
There will be some who do not accept beings who change their bodies as they are comfortable with as equal human beings.
Let’s move on to social issues. At least in the Tower, there doesn’t seem to be such discrimination.
The important thing is…
“Genetta, I think you can be rich.”
“ok?”
Just one idea running through my head.
Whatever the form, it is certain that the homunculus is a being close to immortality.
If the conditions are right, even the dead can be brought back to life. Of course, the body will be in a different shape than before.
Climbers and NPCs have the same longing for life. No, it could be worse. It is a virtue that must be possessed in order to live in the tower for a long time.
Right now, aren’t the tower worshipers trying to preserve the tower for the purpose of eternal life?
‘NPCs die too.’
It was clearly felt at Framberg. After that, I saw it several times while climbing.
What were the thoughts of the people around the deceased? What emotions did the dying people feel?
I don’t know, but I think everyone wanted to live.
A business item that was conceived here.
“Would you like to try the Genetta Rilka revival project?”
“huh?”
“resurrection?”
The two of them tilted their heads, perhaps not knowing that the word resurrection would come out, and Rilka, the merchant, realized what I was saying and jumped to her feet.
“Oooh! Are you sure there will be a demand for it?”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
He explained to Geneta, who was still bewildered.
Sells empty soul stones to NPCs.
When you or someone close to you die, your soul is sealed in the Soul Stone.
Afterwards, it is reborn as a homunculus in conjunction with John Trailer.
This is the basic goal. The body that will become the main body needs to be brought by Rilka.
As the NPCs are also on different floors, Rilka, who can move around, needs to be active.
The cooperation of the sages is also required. Because he has to make the arcane gems and main body.
It’s not easy. Even if everything goes well, there is one more problem left.
“Wouldn’t it be systematically blocked?”
Doing this will create confusion without a second thought.
either in a good or bad way. Maybe a bug screen pops up after a long time.
Rilka crossed her arms and shook her head, probably thinking the same thing.
“I think it will be possible.”
gave a positive answer.
“After all, the wise man also made a homunculus while climbing and climbed together. The homunculus has been recognized as an NPC.”
That’s right. that there is already a precedent. Of course, the scale was not large and it was done when John Trailer was a climber, so it is unclear whether it will be allowed now.
“The sage is also concerned about the future of Geneta, so I think he will cooperate. Ummm, I’ll figure this out!”
“Okay, do your best.”
nothing comes back to me It was obvious that if the business were to actually run, it would be centered around the three wise men, Rilka and Geneta.
“What are you talking about? You have to work too.”
“why me.”
“Excellent sales!”
Rilka, who grabbed the empty soul stone and threw it to me, pricked up her ears.
“If I go around all the floors, I will be late. Run sales while climbing. You are now a full-fledged merchant.”
That’s right, I was a merchant. I forgot about it for a while because I only used it when I was comfortable with my merchant qualifications.
I’m not bad Points may run out later, so it’s good to be prepared.
“Whoop whoop. Anything monopoly is the way to earn the most!”
A man with a wicked smile. So it’s like a villain.
Shaking your head for a while.
Since I am a merchant, I remember something.
“Rilkana became a dimensional merchant.”
“Oh Hong. In terms of dimensions, huh?”
Rilka with her mouth wide open slapped my arm.
“Why! Why did you do it!”
“why! If it wasn’t for that, I’d be dead!”
It’s real. If I hadn’t sold the meteorite to the dimension shop, I would have lost the bet with the thug.
Because it was such a dangerous situation.
How intense is the reaction? I am also a dimensional merchant.
uh? Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever seen Rilka use the Dimension Shop?
“Is it bad?”
“Umm, it’s more dangerous than bad.”
An entity abandoned in a dimension. As she lost her affiliation and became a dimensional merchant and crossed various dimensions, there is no NPC who knows this field better than Rilka.
“The Dimension Shop can only be used through Dimension Merchants. Merchants get a commission.”
“It feels like an intermediary.”
“That’s right. Even if you are not a dimension merchant, you can use the dimension shop, but it will charge a lot of fees. There are many cases of overcharging, and people still buy.”
The dimension shop can buy things you can’t get through normal routes.
Right now, I sold meteorites, so if anyone wants them, they can also buy meteorites.
I think it would be nice to buy things that are not available here and sell them at a high price.
From what I’ve heard, the fee seems to be on the high side, but…
Rilka crossed her arms and stamped her feet. It seems that there is something accumulated in the meantime.
“It’s a little less common between merchants of the same dimension, but you know we don’t trade with regular money, right?”
“Since we were digging meteorites, they counted it as an artifact.”
“…Do you sell meteorites?”
“There is such a thing.”
“Anyway, the trade price is usually chosen by the dimensional merchant, but I don’t know what they want. Some pervert asked me to touch my tail!”
Oh, is that really perverted?
As Rilka said, I also touched it once. It’s quite soft…..
Tingling. Rilka glared. I gently lifted my hand.
“Hmmmm. The price is random. If you’re lucky, you might want a stone lying on the sidewalk, and if you’re unlucky, you might want to take a piece of my body or something like my memories.”
The conversation flowed naturally.
That could definitely be a problem.
“Isn’t it okay to refuse? I’ll give you another one.”
“Then you have to give me something equal to what the dimension merchant asked for. That’s for the store to decide. On the contrary, it could be even more difficult.”
Rilka let out a small sigh and frowned.
“The dimension store is a must buy once you show your intention to buy it. It’s okay to look at the list.”
“What if I don’t buy it?”
“Unfortunate things happen.”
Rilka puts on a serious expression. I don’t think you need to ask specifically.
Because the tower is where a lot of weird things happen. You might think that something more than that is going to happen.
It’s definitely dangerous.
“Ah, by the way, you need a bag to open a dimensional shop.”
“You take a lot of this and that.”
“That’s why dimension merchants overcharge. Because the balance has to be right.”
It was like that. I can see why Rilka doesn’t use the dimension shop.
Now that I’ve settled down at the Tower, I don’t think there’s any need to take risks.
At that time, I was forced to fly into a dimensional rift, so I had no choice.
Is it high risk high return?
“Personally, I recommend not using it, but if you’re going to use it, don’t do it. I’ll tell you how to do it once.”
“Should I do it right now?”
No matter what happens, it’s good to have someone by your side to look after you. Did they tell you to pull out the horns as well? I think it would be nice to do it right away without delay.
Rilka seemed to think differently.
“No. I’m going to open a dimension store and get something worth paying for when I buy it. It would be a loss if you recklessly open it.”
It means to prepare thoroughly and try.
That’s right. There is no need to be impatient. This part is thorough.
I was thinking of staying on the 70th floor for a while anyway. There were a lot of skill books, so I had to synthesize skills and make potions and equipment.
I’m thinking of looking into the top tier channels as well. Do you know if there is any good information?
Even if it’s not that, you have to find out what kind of hunters are climbing the upper floors.
Even a climber like now, when it has been confirmed that there are tower worshipers among climbers, could come as a threat.
A moment of pensive thought.
“And if you come to the 70th floor, you should do that.”
“that?”
Rilka taps my arm.
The guy who raises the corner of his mouth.
“Do you have the transcendental stone you got on the 60th floor?”
“Oh that?”
[Transcendence Stone] –
A mysterious stone that can be obtained from the safe zone on the 60th floor.
– You can raise your power level!
I had a bit of a hard time getting this. If I lost even once, my nickname would be stuffed in the Hall of Defeat, so I fought with this grit.
It’s still far from usable, but it should be stored well.
“Whoops. From the 80th floor, it’s the domain of transcendentalists.”
“right. Because you can only enter if you have 999 stats.”
“The thing that can be raised to the Transcendence Stone is power. So, how do I level up my skills?”
skill?
ah!
The sage also said it. That MAX level skill is transcendence. I thought it would be possible if I reached the 80th floor.
The power level that can be raised with the Transcendence Stone.
It was that there was a separate item to transcend the skill, and the place to get it was…
“On the 70th floor, you need to get a skill book to break through the limits.”
It was here.
