Chapter 70: Charity (2)
Chapter 70: Charity (2)
Near the entrance to the Aegis Guild building, the application winners were waiting.
Charity work started, and people split into two places.
Two people from the Alchemy Association were outside the guild building watching it.
One was the Vice President, and the other was an Epic-ranked Alchemist.
The vice president felt puzzled.
There were too many waiting lines, he thought.
"Are you going to distribute Automail to so many people?"
"Couldn't it have been prepared a little in advance?"
"Then the performance will decrease? It's not customizable."
"If it's not made, no matter how great it is, if you want to supply all those people, you'll have to keep drinking the mana recovery potion until dawn."
"How many alchemists came from Japan?"
"I don't know."
"Let's see for a moment."
"It'll be over when the time comes."
People who entered with prosthetic legs or prosthetic arms came out of the building with automails.
Waiting reporters asked them for an interview, and two alchemists watched it from afar.
At first, I thought it was insignificant.
However, as the number of people appearing increased, the vice president became more anxious.
"How many people so far?"
"Seven. It's like taking a mana recovery potion."
"Even so Too fast? Is an alchemist from Japan unique?"
"There is no unique class alchemist in Japan."
"ah It did ."
There were only a handful of unique alchemists worldwide, but Korea also did not have a special rank.
The vice president just happened to have a beneficiary walking towards them and approached him.
"Isn't this the way to get an auto-mail?"
"Yeah? Yeah ."
"Can I see you for a moment? We are alchemists."
"Okay ."
Confused, he held out his hand.
The vice president looked at the entry-level automail that had been made and asked.
"Are you working on your own, Lewis?"
"No, there were two of them ."
"There is nothing wrong with Automail. You can go see it."
He cautiously walked past them.
"How about the entry-level Automail?"
At the question of the association members, the vice president looked at the Aegis building with admiration.
"It's so perfect ."
"Still, I won't be able to do all those people ."
The vice president wished so.
However, even before the scheduled closing time of 6 o'clock, the waiting people received automail and left the Aegis building.
It was pretty beyond common sense.
"How much mana recovery potion have you consumed? I wouldn't have been able to drink that much ."
The mana recovery potion was a liquid to drink, and I felt complete.
"Did you say it goes on for three days?"
"Yeah."
"after I should be done with this Otherwise, we may have to lower the price of Automail ."
"I am not a philanthropist I would say that."
Korean alchemists were very dissatisfied with the charity work.
Among the waiters who came today, those who had some gold were their guests.
They were dissatisfied with losing customers, and even with Jun-woo's request for support, they refused the job as an excuse.
However, news like a clear blue sky came to them once again.
[Notice from Lewis. We would like to inform you that the period of the project has been extended as more people applied for this charity project than expected. The date has been extended until April 26th, and the time runs from 2pm to 6pm. We will be selected through a lottery, and those who were not selected would be grateful if you could apply for the next charity project.
We look forward to your participation.]
The notice posted on the Lewis website quickly spread as news.
"It is said that this Lewis charity project is taking longer than planned. It is said that this decision was made because there were so many applicants. Around the world, it is evaluated as a philanthropic project that will change Korea, and it is interesting to see how many people can benefit from Auto Mail in the future."
The Alchemy Association could not say anything about Jun-woo's decision.
The opponent was a huge guild, and it was Lee Jun-woo, who had the capital and was loved by the media and the people.
Fortunately, because of the entry-level automail, it was less effective than the automail made of blueprints, so they decided to sell it at a lower price.
Although the profit would decrease, it was an inevitable choice.
Thus, Jun-woo's auto-mail charity work continued non-stop for 12 days.
Thanks to Jun-woo, two Japanese alchemists and blacksmiths, about 800 people could enjoy the benefits of Automail for free.
They had lost their power, but thanks to Jun-woo, they found the gate again and regained the vitality of their lives.
Finally, Jun-woo finished the charity work by donating money to various daycare facilities that care for orphaned children due to cracks.
Although it took a lot of money and time, Jun-woo was satisfied with the result.

Item value: 20,000,000,000
In addition to this, Jun-woo was able to hear many stories while helping them.
There were a lot of nonsensical stories about where something was, and there was something there, but I thought I'd check about three of them later.
Hyeyeon Jeong came into the master room and said,
"Sir, we keep getting inquiries asking for an extension. And outside the guild building, various groups are holding donation boxes and asking for donations What should I do? Sir ."
They seemed to have come from all over the place to support the donation.
"Just leave it alone. Then I will tell you."
It was unfortunate for those who did not benefit, but there would be no end to their requests.
However, the next time when the time came, Jun-woo was willing to donate his talent.
And the donation was an unacceptable demand.
Jun-woo is a producer who accumulates gold through production, not a philanthropist.
Gold has always been scarce, and it is still the case today.
There was a need for earning wretchedly.
"All right. Then we will go out."
As soon as Jeong Hye-Yeon left, Jun-woo raised the skill level of creating mysterious blueprints' with the gold he had earned during that time.
80 billion gold was consumed, but the skill's cooldown would decrease, and the effect would increase slightly.
Currently, Jun-woo's primary sources of income are automail and flying cars.
They made a flying car that was driving a lot of money because it was sold at a high price to those who reserved them in gold order.
Not only that, the quests to receive the production continued.
Although the profitability was not compared to the product made with blueprints, production was also a significant source of income that could not be given up.
I'm making Epic+ now, but the revenue is expected to increase if I go up to the Unique level.
Of course, blacksmith robots could still be unique. Still, the increase in value was low, and excessive outstanding production was a nuisance to clients.
So Jun-woo delayed the production of Unique a little more.
The next day, a walker from Fabregas came to visit.
"This charity work has been great."
Jun-woo smiled awkwardly at Walker's praise.
"no. I could do this because a lot of the proceeds from the auction came in. But what happened to you today?"
"You should have a little rest, but I'm sorry, but I'm here today to entrust the production."
"It's okay. Any production request is welcome."
Walker looked at Jun-woo and smiled lightly.
"I wonder how many bodies you have. Rumor has it that there is a crafting golem. Is that true?"
"Because it's a business secret."
"Haha First of all, 12 this time."
"I'll open a deal."
A trade window opened between the two, and Walker placed all the recipes and materials he had brought.
"It's okay if you don't give collateral."
Walker said so, but Jun-woo raised gold equivalent to 90% of all the values of the uploaded items.
"Haha You don't have to give it to me."
"You never know what will happen to the producers."
Walker seemed a little worried about Jun-woo's remarks.
"I want you to always be careful."
Jun-woo smiled brightly.
"Thank you, but you don't have to worry now. I've grown quite a bit."
Walker drew a satisfied smile.
"It's surprising. I heard that you also solved the Unique Dungeon Gate this time. It is something I could not have imagined in the past."
"You have good information."
"Because there are many things that I pick up and listen to."
It was a rumor already known to some extent by people of high rank.
"And there is one thing I want to ask you."
"What is it?"
"I heard that forming this entry-level Automail is difficult, even if you take a mana potion. So I was curious. Do you have high mana recovery? Or is the mana consumed by the ore low?"
He didn't know why he was asking, but it didn't seem necessary to hide it from Walker.
"The mana recovery is rather high."
"Then do you know about Mana Shield?"
"A mana shield?"
"It is a skill that can be learned through the skill book. The effect of level 1 is that 90% of the damage received is consumed as mana instead of health."
It was an effect that could become a tank if Jun-woo, who had increased mana recovery by 30 per second due to the unstable sage stone, learned it.
Jun-woo asked with surprised eyes.
"Is there such a thing?"
Jun-woo had been looking for skills through the skill book on using high mana, but he did not get information about mana shields.
"Yes, it is a binding skill book that can be obtained from skeleton wizards or lichs who sometimes use mana shields."
The bound skill book could only be obtained by hunting directly and had to go through a period of waiting with no promise as to when it would come out.
"ah okay."
"There are two, one is Epic+, and the other is unique. I just told you in case you need it."
"It was a necessary part, and we will definitely get it next time. Where are there many skeleton wizards?"
"As expected, the skeleton is on the Russian front. Please tell me when you are coming. I will help guide you."
"Haha thank you."
It was one of the essential skills for his high mana recovery.
As soon as Jun-woo reached level 100 and the blasting work was finished, he thought he had to go to the Russian front.
"Then, please take good care of this production."
"Of course, thank you for speaking today."
Walker slightly bowed his head and left the master room.
Jun-woo searched for the mana shield that Walker left behind.
I was able to get some information about such a thing with the attribution skill book.
If I could buy it with money, I would have saved it by giving it some money, but it was only disappointing that it was attributable to me.
As much as that, the skill book attributable to it was practical and could be an essential skill for those who needed it.
-beep.
"Sir, the president of the Alchemy Association has appeared. What should I do?"
"Tell me to come in."
Kim Young-han, the president of the Alchemy Association, came back with the vice president.
They sat down, and Jun-woo waited for their words.
Kim Young-han said cautiously.
"I'm sorry I couldn't help you with this. I have an overdue request."
Korean alchemists refused Jun-woo's request despite the condition of paying him a salary.
"It is unavoidable under certain circumstances."
"Looks like you did an excellent job. This made us realize again that so many people need Automail."
Jun-woo looked at the association's president as if wondering, and the president continued.
"If you run a charity like this next time, please let me know. I will mobilize all the alchemists who can help and help them."
Contrary to Jun-woo's good deeds, Korean alchemists were reviled.
Broadcasts of their deformed Automail prices were also broadcast.
News spread that Korea has a very high automail price compared to other countries.
Because of that, the alchemists' website was flooded with criticism.
"Thank you. It will definitely be of great help."
Kim Young-han looked at Jun-woo and asked softly.
"I understand that you took a lot of mana recovery potions while forming Automail this time. Is it a mana potion you made yourself?"
Contrary to their expectations, Jun-woo did not take even a drop of mana recovery potion.
"just I ate what was marketed."
"Is it Well Just in case, do you have any knowledge of chemistry?"
"I think I have some."
Kim Young-han nodded.
"yes I won't tell you to join the association anymore. To be honest, Korean alchemists lack the technology for ore compared to other countries. But in terms of chemistry, I can be proud that much research has been done. If you see this and are interested, please let me know."
He put the documents brought by the vice president on the table and pushed them toward Jun-woo.
"What is this?"
"It's just some of the data we've been studying. We can lead to good results if we work together."
Kim Young-han reached out to Jun-woo in a way that helped each other rather than pretending.
"Ah, I will contact you after confirming."
Kim Young-han and the vice president got up and left the master room.
Jun-woo looked at the documents they gave him once.
They were research materials related to alchemy and chemistry.
Jun-woo knew most of it, too.
However, there were some parts that Jun-woo did not know, and among them, the study of Elixir was a topic of great interest.
Intellect may increase .'
The end of alchemy would be an elixir or a wise man's stone that would cause changes in the body.
Jun-woo had a unique + grade promotion stone obtained from the hidden dungeon, and the promotion stone was deeply related to the alchemy and chemistry sector.
Jun-woo looked through the documents and involuntarily nodded his head.
Although essential parts were not recorded, it was clearly a material that had been studied extensively.
If used well, we could eat each other generously if we just put a few side dishes on the table they set up.
