Absolute Necromancer Chapter 163
“…Heung, you really aren’t going to say anything, are you?”
“…I don’t understand why you think I would say sothing like that. “You said it in the first place.”
“I told you because I asked!”
“…If you ask twice, I’ll tell you it’s a very secret secret and everything.”
Jinhyuk shook his head, looking at Alchemy who was barely calm and blowing her nose. He patted Alchemy on the shoulder and said,
“Can we talk about the second item?”
“Sniff! do! “I’m ready.”
“…It’s not sothing that requires any preparation.”
All he had to do was speak and Alchemy listen, but Jinhyuk clicked his tongue at Alchemy, who was filled with determination as if he was hearing a plan to save the world, and then snapped his fingers.
Just-!
A clear clicking sound filled the basent.
“co out.”
When Alchemy tilts his head at Jinhyuk’s words, which seem to be calling soone else.
“Did you call ?”
“…ghost? No, it’s a ghost…No, my energy is too strong for that.”
Alchemy started to understand Tune with a surprised face as Tune suddenly appeared behind Jinhyuk’s back.
At first I thought it was a ghost, but then it reminded of a monster, a ghost, and finally I denied that thought.
The presence was too strong to be a ghost, but the aura was too strong to be a ghost, which was the decisive reason for denying the idea.
“But why did I suddenly call soone who I don’t know if was a ghost or a ghost…?” ….”
“This guy was a real climber. “He was quite famous in the tower just a few months ago.”
“…I’m embarrassed. In front of Jinhyuk, my honor was nothing more than a re fly.”
Alchemy asked back at Tune’s words, where he was scratching his head as if he was truly ashad and embarrassed.
“Who are you?”
“Death King, Tune.”
“…Hike! ji…He was a real ‘king’? Isn’t that also the Four Spirit King? “Use the corpses?”
“That’s right, alchemist. Well, now it’s just a soul disease. “I am taking on the undeserved position of serving Jinhyeok.”
“…He wasn’t just handso.”
Alchemy, who was muttering while looking at Jinhyuk, eventually found what she had to do.
“But why did you call this spirit oppa? No matter how you look at it, I can’t help you. “Can souls drink potions?”
“I can’t drink it. Even if you drink it, you won’t see any effects. In the first place, a potion is like a dicine that penetrates into the actual body and exerts its effect. “It would be possible if you made a potion that could also be absorbed by souls, but it would be better to do sothing else at that ti.”
“Aha, that’s a sha. “It’s a potion that seeps into the soul, so I thought it would be fun.”
Alchemy could not hide its disappointnt at Tune’s answer.
Until now, I thought the potion could only be used on people, but I never thought it could be used on souls.
However, with Jinhyeok’s next words, that regret disappeared as quickly as oil volatilizing.
thud-!
A heavy sound.
It was because of sothing Jinhyuk pulled out of subspace.
“…dead body? “I think I look similar to my oppa-”
“My body is right. “Now it’s a corpse.”
“Like he said, this corpse is the body he wore when he was alive. “Now I’m just a shell with my soul gone.”
That sothing was none other than Tune’s corpse.
Among the three who were talking calmly about the corpse, Jinhyeok was the first to speak.
“You must use this corpse to create a body that can house the soul. Of course, the first cos first, and the second can be built gradually.”
“…A body that can house a soul? That couldn’t be…?”
A body in which the soul can reside.
As an alchemist, Alchemy did not know what the word ant, and Jinhyuk also had no intention of hiding his na.
“Homunculus.”
“…I knew it-“
Homunculus.
It is said to be an artificial life form and a dwarf in a flask.
Alchemy, realizing that her prediction was correct, touched her forehead.
If Jinhyeok was surprised when he brought out the first item, hengangseok, Alchemy was surprised when he brought up the story about the second item, the homunculus.
After exchanging punches with each other, Alchemy did not hide his nervous expression.
“Homunculus is the most representative example of defying logic. Also, using a homunculus as a ‘vessel’ to carry the soul of a dead person. “I really couldn’t have imagined it.”
“I guess so. In order to use the humunculus in the form of a vessel, extensive knowledge of the soul and the ability to manipulate the soul are essential, but an alchemist cannot possibly have such talent.”
Basically, a homunculus can be said to be a being with reason and intelligence.
However, what Jinhyeok was trying to do now was to make the soul have a living body by smashing the soul into an empty body that had removed the homunculus’s reason and intelligence.
Of course, this idea is not new, but for an alchemist who did not know a climber with a soul and deep knowledge like Jinhyeok, it was more difficult than picking a star from the sky.
“True, but….”
“You are the greatest alchemist and I am the greatest expert on souls. “If we work together, we will not be able to create a homunculus as a new life form, but will be able to reborn an already dead being into a new, but identical and healthy body.”
And that ans that for Alchemy, who t Jinhyuk, picking up stars in the sky is a piece of cake or a piece of cake.
“…Are you saying that by cultivating the body in a culture capsule using DNA and other information from the corpse, the ti multiplier is increased and a body suitable for the present is quickly created?”
“answer.”
In particular, homunculi can determine the ti when their body grows through capsules.
This ans that it only takes a few hours to a few days to grow from a newborn to an adult.
In other words, in just a few days, soul soldiers imdiately have a full-fledged adult body.
Of course, if necessary, he could always return to the spirit bottle and join the battle.
“But I think it will be difficult to reach the level that Oppa wants.”
“Isn’t that too much?”
The plan to supply homunculus bodies that fit well with each of the soul soldiers he had had many problems.
“It would be difficult to build a supply line of that level, even if Goldrich lost all his money. “It would cost hundreds of millions of materials to create one body, and it would cost even more to build the workshop or research facility needed to create a homunculus using those materials.”
“…Tsk, then is it possible for about five people?”
Hearing that a huge amount of money was needed, Jinhyeok scrapped the plan to supply bodies to all soul patients.
However, since it was necessary to give bodies to Tune, Basil, Ashur Hum, and Balkan, at least five homunculi were needed.
“That’s okay, it’s completely possible. Homunculus…It’s such an advanced alchemy that even I can’t even think about it, so it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give it a try this ti.”
Fortunately, about five bodies fell into the possible category.
Seeing Alchemy nod and smile, Jinhyuk got up from his seat.
“Anyway, in order to produce the second item, the homunculus, research facilities, etc. will have to be built first. In the anti, let’s start manufacturing the first item, the sectional steel.”
“yep! “Just trust !”
Jinhyeok tapped Alchemy’s shoulder, who was in a saluting position with a military face, and said sothing that made Alchemy startle.
“Co back in three days.”
“…yes? “Didn’t you hear clearly?”
3 days.
In that ridiculously short period of ti, Alchemy looked blank and couldn’t believe her ears.
“Five pieces of high-grade sectional stone. “I’m looking forward to it.”
“It would take about a day for each high-grade sectional stone over there, but three days? No, what kind of nonsense is that-”
And not just one or two, but a whopping five.
It wasn’t enough to make five pieces, each of which took a day, and Alchemy went into a fit when he heard that it only took three days.
This is because it was a figure that made it possible to make it for three days without stopping.
Jinhyuk nodded and said
“Let’s see if the claim that he is the best alchemist in the tower is a lie. Oh, it doesn’t matter if I can’t make it.”
“Whew, that’s a good thing….”
It doesn’t matter if you can’t make it –
Alchemy was relieved to hear those words.
Still, it was about the ti when I had an optimistic thought that my employer was a thoughtful person – he was just testing .
Jinhyuk thoroughly shattered that thought.
“Instead, you will lose my trust, and if you lose my trust, the interest suspension will be canceled.”
“…Argh! I’ll do it! You can do it! So please just-!”
Interest suspension canceled.
In front of those scary words, Alchemy scread and swore that she would do it.
Jinhyeok, with a slight smile as if he was satisfied with that, uttered the last word.
“I will trust you, Alchemy. No, Christina Rothschild.”
“…Hmph.”
trust.
Alchemy was unable to say anything when Jinhyuk showed his belief that he could do it.
* * *
“Did what you went do go well?”
“Okay, that’s good.”
After finishing his conversation with Alchemy, Jinhyuk was talking alone with Goldrich.
The sight of Goldrich looking at paperwork even while talking was so thorough that Jinhyuk couldn’t help but hold his tongue.
“So what did you decide to do?”
“Recruiting guild mbers. Interest suspension, support for alchemy materials, and even purchase of finished products excluding the cost of materials. We decided to build additional facilities such as research facilities.”
“As expected – facilities such as research facilities are already under construction. “So of the facilities have already been completed, so we can just send Alchemy there.”
“…You know well, Goldrich.”
Jinhyeok, who realized that Goldrich had already penetrated his thoughts from the mont he told him to find Alchemy and was building facilities to use Alchemy perfectly, had no choice but to acknowledge him.
This ans that Goldrich knows him as well as he does himself.
“What do you plan to do with the guild’s location?”
Additionally, when asked what to do with Alchemy’s position within the Yeokcheon guild, Jinhyeok pointed down as if it were obvious.
“Choi Haji. “It doesn’t make sense to have a high debtor, right?”
“Confird. Then, you are at the lowest level until you pay off all your debt. If you pay off all your debt, you can go up one level. Halcion and Ken will make friends.”
Yeokcheon’s guild structure consists of the guild leader (highest), deputy guild leader (highest), executives (middle), important guild mbers (lowest), and general guild mbers (lowest).
Jinhyuk was at the highest level, Goldrich and Hendrick were at the upper level, Ha-ryu and Muyoung were at the middle level, and Ken and Halcyon were at the lower level.
And this ti, the guilds made up of traitors from the guild union that Gold Rich had absorbed, as well as Gold Rich’s personal troops, were at the bottom.
Of course, Alchemy was not originally a person of the lowest class, but the status of an important guild mber did not suit a debt collector.
“What are you going to do now?”
“Fortunately, Alchemy had so extra sectional steel on hand. I plan to attempt production based on this. “It’s still lacking a lot, but I think we can produce it at least once or twice.”
“okay? “Not bad.”
Goldrich stopped working on the paperwork and smiled when told that thanks to Alchemy’s profiled steel, they would be able to start production right away without spending any additional ti.
Of course, he imdiately started teasing the pen for a mont.
Jinhyuk said while looking at Gold Rich.
“Production is scheduled for a maximum of one month.”
“It’s pretty long.”
“It’s also a fairly short period of ti.”
one month.
For so it is a long ti, but for others it is a short ti.
When you co up with different answers in a period of ti that can be long or short depending on how you use it.
“Goblin village. “How are things these days?”
After a month that was both short and long, Jinhyuk asked about the goblin village, the destination he was heading to.
“…not good. All of the Four Emperors who appeared on the 100th floor disappeared. Additionally, their forces are also stationed on the 100th floor. “If necessary, you can always head to the goblin village.”
Goldrich even stopped his pen and shook his head with a worried look on his face.
This is because as ti passed, the number of troops heading to the goblin village beca more unusual.
“It’s a minefield. The current goblin village. “It’s a place where your ankles could be blown off as soon as you step in.”
That’s why Goldrich stopped working on the paperwork and warned Jinhyuk.
They say that Goblin Village has beco a dangerous area, like a minefield.
But Jinhyuk’s words about him had already been decided.
“Landmines are just like landmines. I’m not scared of land mines. If it’s going to explode, let it explode. “Will it only lead to self-destruction?”
Jinhyeok, who was confident that the landmine nad Four Emperors could not hurt him, recalled in his mind an Elyos nad Hamiel whom he had t at the auction house.
‘That damn pigeon will be there too.’
The words, smiling aningfully and looking forward to the day we would et again, were still engraved in Jinhyeok’s mind.
Jinhyuk ended the conversation thinking that if we t again, he would crush that cute, pretty face.
“For three days from today, Alchemy will be making high-grade steel products in the workshop.”
“3 days? “Didn’t you say it would take about a day for each piece?”
“I said I could do it with my mouth, so I guess I can do it. Put him inside and lock him. “Once you’ve made all five loaves, send them out.”
What he said he could do was just a half-threat mixed in, but it didn’t really matter to Jinhyuk.
“…He seems like a terrible guy, I get it. “I’ll tell you that.”
Gold Rich did not reject Jinhyuk’s words.
This is because Alchemy does not have enough loyalty to twist things that have already been decided.
Thus, a ghost story spread that an unknown(?) sound like ‘Gongmile~ Gongmileh~’ was heard in the Goldrich Alchemy Workshop.
Naturally, that sound was the sound of Alchemy being torn apart.
