<h4>Chapter 145 Master Crafter</h4>
Before diving into the grand undertaking, it was time for n to invest in his skills to further his capabilities. With a precise n in mind, he allocated two of his precious attribute points to enhance his Intelligence. The glowing feedback from the interface indicated the sessful upgrade:
[Intelligence: C+] +2 [C+ > B-] [B- > B]
Bolstered by the improved Intelligence, n turned his attention to his unique skill.
[Science (Master)]
[Rarity: Unique]
[More effective in science-rted tasks]
[Prerequisites: Intelligence B]
[Cost: 10,000 survival points and 1x Rank C reward]
[Proceed?]
He knew this skill''s potential and effectiveness in science-rted tasks was pivotal for his future ns. Unwavering, n confirmed the expenditure with a simple "Yes."
[You have spent 10,000 survival points and 1x Rank C reward]
[You gained proficiency in [Science] - Expert to Master]
This elevation took him to the highest level of proficiency he had achieved in this skill in his previous life, and he had specific ns for utilizing these newfound advantages in the uing round.
Once the upgrades were secured, n rallied the group tomence their crafting venture. Setting up a worktable, he meticulously sorted through the vast array of 300 mon] items that the military had allocated. The task at hand was a monumental one, and n efficiently organized the items into four distinct categories: metals, cloth, food, and misceneous.
Their haul was predominantlyprised of metals mostly edge weapons and firearms, ounting for around 50% of the items, while cloth items made up approximately 20%. The remaining 30% consisted of assorted objects deemed as junk. n was undaunted by this ssification, as he meticulously inspected and collected some of the seemingly insignificant items: metal pipes, bolts, screws, and a cement mixture.
n''s inventive spark ignited as he meticulouslyid out his vision for the uing project. "I think I have all I need," he dered to the group, ready to embark on the next phase. Leaving the room behind, he ventured into the cruise''s engine room, scouring the area for a specific item. After a bit of searching, he located a massive metal propane tank, standing at a towering 2 meters in height and with a 70-centimeter width.
With the hefty tank strapped to his back, n set out to explore the lower deck of the cruise, only to find himself confronted by a familiar figure – Sergeant Dn. The military man couldn''t help but question n''s puzzling activities, demanding,
"What the hell are you doing, n?"
n''s confident grin was his response. "Just the person I need. Follow me, and please bring your tools along."
Sergeant Dnplied, bringing with him the US military supply of tools.
[Name: Power Drill]
[Type: Tools]
[Rarity: Umon]
[Attributes: None]
[Effect: To drill holes]
[Able To Bring Outside The Game: Yes]
And the second tool, equally vital for the task at hand:
[Metal Cutter]
[Type: Tools]
[Rarity: Umon]
[Attributes: None]
[Effect: To cut metal]
[Able To Bring Outside The Game: Yes]
With these tools at their disposal, n was poised to bring his innovative creation to life.
"What are you making, n?" Sergeant Dn inquired, curiosity piqued by the unusual project. n responded with a contented smile as he deftly sliced off the top portion of therge propane tank, leaving a one-meter-tall bottom section. He then set to work mixing the cement mixture.
n exined, "This is the instingyer, to keep the heat inside."
It didn''t take long for the sergeant and others to discern that n was constructing a furnace, reminiscent of the one he''d built at the farm. This version, however, was more substantial, and constructed with superior materials. Shamus and Dn joined forces to create the air supply port, using their power drills to create holes on the side for the blower tube, while also crafting a lid with a hole designed to retain heat effectively.
When n put the finishing touches on the project, a notification promptly appeared:
[You have sessfully crafted an item]
[Your (Science - Master) allows you to sessfully create an umon item]
[Name: Metal Furnace]
[Type: Tools]
[Rarity: Umon]
[Effect: To burn material]
[Able To Bring Outside The Game: Yes]
Dn''s excitement was palpable as he eximed, "n! This is an umon item!"
This was the remarkable benefit of his new [Science] upgrade.
The [Basic] level of [Science] allowed him to handle simple intelligence-rted problems such as wiring up a car or operating simple machinery.
At the [Novice] level, he could craft mon] items using other marked mon] items, simr to what he had done with the medicated gauze, using the marked item clothes.
The [Expert] level, elevated his capabilities further, enabling him to create mon] items without requiring any mon] item material. Items like swords, shields, or leather vests that he crafted from mere material in the wilds.
Finally, having reached the [Master] level, he possessed the ability to create [umon] items using parts of mon items].
There was a catch, though – the game was not easily fooled. n couldn''t use the mon] items he had already crafted as a basis for crafting [umon] items. Therefore, he decided to sell all the crafted weapons and armor to other yers, and, with the junk mon] items at his disposal, he was prepared to upgrade his team''s armaments.
The crafters in the room couldn''t contain their excitement, aware of the significant potential thaty ahead.
"Alright, you all know what to do; let''s get started."
As Shamus, the cksmith, began to warm up the furnace and conduct some testing, Marie, the tailor,menced the process of taking apart all non-metallicponents attached to the items. They had to be meticulous in differentiating between steel, aluminum, and other metals to ensure there was no mixing that could lower the quality of the material.
Gus, the woodworker, stood by n, ready to assist with the design preparations for the casting of three items: a metal sword, a metal armor, and a metal shield.
n instructed Luis to call in more members of the crafting team to lend a hand. At the same time, they brought in additional mon] items newly acquired from Bill to be used in the crafting process.
Within an hour, the facility was bustling with n''s crafting team, and as Shamuspleted the first finely tempered piece of metal, n seized the leather prepared by Marie and added the finishing touch to the grip. A notification promptly appeared:
[You have sessfully crafted an item]
[Your (Science - Master) allows you to sessfully create an umon item]
[Your Inventor Jobss allows you to sessfully create a higher quality item]
[Name: Metal Sword]
[Type: Sword weapon]
[Rarity: Umon]
[Attributes: Damage 34-42]
[Effects: None]
[Equipment Rating: 22]
[Able To Bring Outside The Game: No]
[Remarks: A finely craft sword]
The result exceeded n''s expectations. The previousmon steel sword only had [Attributes: Damage 16-24], while this new one was nearly as potent as his [Third Reich Sword], boasting [Attributes: Damage 36-44], albeit missing the speed buff effects.
But the sword was only the beginning. With the room brimming with talent and determination, they moved on to the next item. n''s confidence grew, and with each swing of the hammer, a new piece of their arsenal took shape.
[Your (Science - Master) allows you to sessfully create an umon item]
[Name: Metal Shield]
[Type: Other]
[Rarity: Umon]
[Attributes: Defense +10]
[Effects: None]
[Equipment Rating: 18]
[Able To Bring Outside The Game: No]
[Remarks: A finely crafted shield]
The atmosphere in the crafting facility was electric. The crafters marveled at the newfound possibilities that n''s crafting expertise had unlocked.
The third item, the metal armor, presented a moreplex challenge. It required abination of metals, leather, and clothing. With Marie''s expertise, they overcame theseplexities and crafted the first sample.
[Name: Metal Armor]
[Type: Armor]
[Rarity: Umon]
[Attributes: Defense +14]
[Effects: None]
[Equipment Rating: 22]
[Able To Bring Outside The Game: No]
[Remarks: A finely crafted armor]
The armor''s attributes were equally impressive, boasting a Defense rating of +14. It surpassed even the padded armor n had acquired from the shop that gave only +8. Shamus, with pride, etched a small "W" logo on its right chest, symbolizing their unity as the Wolverines.
As they continued to refine their methods and make use of the upgraded furnace, everyone began to understand the significant impact these improved weapons and armor would have on theirbat effectiveness.
Dn, in particr, was deeply moved by what he witnessed. The idea that n''s exceptional crafting skills could provide their militia with an edge was both inspiring and bewildering. Throughout the entire process, Dn was left astounded, when n approached him, Dn was trembling slightly as he remarked, "n... you understand how much of a difference this can make?"
To his surprise, n''s response was, "I do... I actually hope this is good enough to let me join your little project."
Dn was a little taken aback by n''s words and asked, "How? How did you know about that?!"
