Chapter 40 - Transcendentalist Shop (1)
After accessing the Transcendentalist Academy, Seojun searched for his memory and clicked on the link he had seen the other day.
< Training equipment made by successful applicants. >
[Imitation] - Misteltein.
[Imitation] - Excalibur.
[Imitation] - Spear of Longinus.
.
.
.
Then, the smartphone screen flickered and pictures of various arms were lined up.
Seo-joon paused for a moment and admired them.
“I feel it every time, but it's true that this is for training...”
Seo-joon looked at his spear, which was placed quietly in one corner.
It was a spear made by a blacksmith with good skills enough to be used by the swordsman, but compared to the weapons reflected on the smart phone, it looked pale in comparison.
In fact, the comparison itself was ridiculous.
Successful students are those who transcend.
No matter how good a blacksmith he was, he was infinitely lacking compared to the Transcendentalists.
In that sense, the weapons on the screen were items that could easily be received for tens of billions if sold in real life.
He didn't have to go far, even if he just shoved Excalibur into the swordsman, he would try to buy it at any cost.
Then there would be no more worries about money, but the fact that he couldn't do that only made Seo-joon feel bad.
“I think the Longinus spear would be the best weapon...”
Seo-joon scrolled down and looked at each piece of equipment on sale.
And Transcendent Academy sold not only equipment such as arms, but also other items not related to combat.
[Counterfeit] - Kestos Hamas
Aphrodite's belt and a belt known to seduce all the opposite sex when worn.
[Imitation] - Gleipnir
Groom (神狼) Fenrir was tied. It is a known string made of 7 materials that do not exist in the world and cannot be cut with existing materials.
In addition to this, from elixirs and magic books to accessories and so on.
They were really making and selling various things.
“What should I really buy...”
So Seo-joon had no choice but to face obstacles.
In fact, Seojun is armor or shoes. Or maybe I was thinking about gloves.
To be precise, equipment related to combat.
However, if you sell so many types, the story is different.
And the biggest reason Seo-joon was thinking about right now was that the price of the items was generally between 100 and 200 million won.
The price of things that deserve hundreds of billions is only 1 to 200 million won.
Of course, considering that Longinus's spear was 100 million, it was possible.
“Hmm...”
However, Seo-jun did not take this straight away.
Because Seo-joon had experienced causality in the past, there was no way he would give it away like this.
So Seo-jun thought that it might be because Seo-jun had not yet purchased the Longinus spear.
In a word, it means that each time you buy an item, there is a very high possibility that the price will increase due to the causal adjustment.
“Maybe not...”
It was just Seo-jun's guess, but there was nothing wrong with being careful.
If the assumption were true, it could happen that you just bought something and later the price skyrocketed and you couldn't buy what you really needed.
If not, it's not too late to go back and change your choice.
But now was the time to be careful.
“The problem is that there is no description of the effects of the objects.”
Seo-joon clicked on each posted link to confirm it.
However, there was only a name and a picture, but no explanation of what effect it had.
At least, based on the contents of the myth through the name, it was all guessed.
The names that weren't in Shinhwa or that Seo-jun didn't know had no idea what effect they had.
Above all, it was not possible to confirm whether it really had the effect mentioned in the myth.
Maybe the word ‘fake' didn't mean just words.
However, you can't buy anything and check it out.
“ah! I wonder if there are any user reviews in the community.”
Seo-joon immediately connected to ‘Chatting of Beginners'.
And ‘training equipment' as a search keyword. ‘Reviews'. ‘review'. ‘suggestion'. Searched by setting etc.
Then, several posts are listed in a row.
There were quite a few posts, but this one caught Seo-joon's attention at once.
『[Sympathy for 2700 years] - 100 Transcendence equipment reviews and personal recommendations.
』
Seojun clicked on the post without hesitation.
Hold on.
.
.
.
『Equipment sold at Transcendent Academy.
A lot of people were wondering what to choose. I made the wrong choice, but I just piled up cause and effect.
So, I'm leaving a review of 100 things I've used.
I have a place to farm causal, so it's relatively easy to collect causal.
I hope this will be of some help to beginners who are struggling together.
For now, consumables such as elixirs were excluded from the evaluation.
And the main weapon was also excluded.
If you haven't bought a primary weapon yet, buy that first.
Read this article later.
Then, assuming that you have purchased your main weapon...
What I have used is mostly semi-permanent equipment.
And such equipment was evaluated out of 10 by combining various evaluation factors such as combat utility life convenience.
This is purely my personal opinion, so please understand.
1. Shield of Aegis.
It's also called the shield of Aegis somewhere... This is just dog trash.
Don't even look.
Aside from the effect of being able to block any attack, the shield has a strange head on it, like a Medusa head or something?
This is the ability to turn a target into stone, and it works just by looking at it.
But the problem is that the person who uses it also turns to stone.
There is no control, and there is no on/off function.
just trash itself.
So my score is √2 out of 10.
However, for a gift for a close friend, a perfect score of 10.』
.
.
“...”
Seo-joon went blank for a moment.
Soon after, Seojun came to his senses and continued reading the posts, thinking that he was really good at checking the community posts first.
The author really wrote a review about the equipment in detail.
The problem is that there are as many as 100 long pieces.
There are too many...
Seo-joon looked at the evaluation scores and flipped through the text as if reading a web novel.
and.
.
.
『87. Kibisis.
This really needs no words. highlight.
In fact, it's no different than writing this article to recommend this.
There are quite a few people who don't know this, but to introduce it briefly, it's a subspace pouch with space expansion, lightweight magic, image memorization, and time stop magic.
After all, if you are training as a transcendental person, you do a lot of closed-door training.
However, it is not something that you can immediately do if you want to do closed-kwan training, and there are many things that are necessary.
Usually, when you practice closed halls, they do this for 100 or 200 years.
You need a warehouse to store food to eat during that time, and if it's too large, it's difficult to manage.
Also, you have to take care not to spoil the food.
How can I live on rice alone again?
Sometimes on days when my training isn't going well, I need something to change my mind.
Of course, you can go down to the mundane world whenever you need it, but then your mind will be shaken again.
Hahahoho When I see people laughing, I wonder if I should go through all this hard work and transcend myself.
Hehe, I know that pain.
But if you have one of these, you're done. game over.
Put everything you need into the kibisis, and if you go into a cave-like place, the training itself is closed.
Buy this.
I think it's right to buy it in the beginning and see the benefits rather than buying it expensively because it accumulates later.
I've used it myself, and the durability is really the best, perhaps because it's made by mixing adamantium.
If I have to point out the downside...
It's an imitation, so it doesn't completely reduce the weight, but it still reduces it by 70%.
The space isn't infinite, but it's still spacious enough.
My score is 100 out of 10.
I really recommend it.』
.
.
After that, the writing continued, but nothing caught my eye right away.
A long post that ended like that.
Seojun scrolled down to check the comments.

B[Demon of Destruction]: Jeong Seong-geul. I'm going to give you 3 weights.
?[Sympathy for 2700 years]: I'm glad you were helpful.
?[I must transcend this time!]: Equipment review ward.
?[Sympathy for 2700 years]: Always fighting.
?[Lightbringer]: By the way, did you mix adamantium with kibisis? Will that be the unit price?
B[2700 year old virgin]: I was also surprised at first. However, after analyzing it, it was found that it contained adamantium, albeit in small amounts.
?[Leader of Light]: No matter how small it is, Adamantium is Evan...
?[Pick-tap with Mjolnir]: ? It's correct to mix adamantium. I'm listening to the Hephaestus lecture right now, and the assignment is to make and submit a kibisis imitation regardless of the quality. But there is adamantium in it.
?[Sympathy for 2700 years]: Ah, you must be preparing to transcend the production profession.
?[Tok tok tok with Mjolnir]: ?? It hasn't been long since I started. By the way If you're not rude, can you help me extract adamantium?
B[2700 year old virgin]: Yes? Adamantium extraction? Are you a student preparing to transcend the magic profession?
?[Chok-tap-tap-tap with Mjolnir]: I know, but I can't do it myself.
?[Sympathy for 2700 years]: Then why do you ask me to transcend a student in the same job?
?[Chok-tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk with Mjolnir]: I tried to do that, but there is no sympathy among my acquaintances.
?[2700 years of virginity]: What does adamantium extraction and virginity have to do with it?
?[Tick-tap-tap-tap with Mjolnir]: Why doesn't it matter? It's name is Adamantium.
B[2700 year old virgin]:???
B[Succubus]: Mr. You're not thinking that adamantium is ‘adaman' Tium, are you?
?[Tap tock with Mjolnir]:?????????? So it wasn't adamantium???
?[2700 year old virgin]:......Are you crazy?
? [Executive of Observation]: Kitchen ? ??? ??? ??? I interpreted it like that ? ??? ??? ???
? [Sword return]: ?? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

“Are you insane...?”
Seojun checked the comments several times and thought about it.
But no matter how much I thought about it, that seemed insane.
If I was sane, I would never have thought of such a thing.
“No, no matter how new you are, it's like that...”
Seo-joon shook his head.
If you think about it carefully, this community itself was insane.
“It's kibisis...”
Seojun confirmed the kibisis recommended by the post.
[Imitation] - Kibesis.
A kibisis shaped like a pocket the size of a fist.
This kibisis is an object of Hera, a god in Greek mythology, and was the pouch that the hero Perseus used to hold the head of Medusa after he hunted it.
A magical pouch that can be put in anything and can be taken out whenever you want.
Seo-joon clicked the link to check the price.
< Calculate the causal rate and measure the right price... >
.
< 100000000 ? >
I didn't know how much it would change if I bought the Spear of Longinus, but it didn't seem to eat a lot of cause and effect.
“Hmm... I think it would be useful to have.”
Even if he just thought of it, he could have put the corpses all at once during a dungeon raid.
Not only that, but later on, when doing dungeon raids of 6 stars or higher, there were frequent cases of being homeless.
So, I usually raid dungeons in a party, but as mentioned in the post, it was possible alone if there was a kibisis.
Compared to other equipment, it may not be able to receive combat support, but other than that, it was a really useful item.
“It's a little disappointing that we can't completely reduce the weight.”
It's not genuine, so there seems to be a limit.
I couldn't put it indefinitely because of the weight, but it was still a great effect at about 70%.
“hmm? for a moment.”
however.
“If that’s the case, wouldn’t squats be good too?”
For Seo-joon, that was also an advantage.
3 days later.
Seo-joon went through the discharge procedure at the hospital.
It was quite a serious wound, but Seo-joon was able to recover quickly, probably because he was a natural awakener and because of Shakyamuni's immobility effect.
There was no reason to stay in the hospital when he was in good shape, and in fact, Seo-joon was in a situation where he was impatient.
That's because the prize money for winning the contest was paid yesterday.
For the first time in his life, Seo-joon was able to see the amount recorded in billions in his bank account.
And for the first time in my life, I was able to use billions of dollars.
“Wow… Seeing it in person, is it really crazy?”
Seojun gazed at the spear of Longinus in his hand.
Unlike when I saw it in the picture, it seemed that even a certain aura was emanating from it.
At the same time, Seojun was able to purchase Kibisis as well as the Spear of Longinus.
And sure enough, the price of Kibisis changes as soon as you purchase the Longinus Spear.
The price was none other than 300 million.
Therefore, Seojun spent 400 million won on purchasing the Longinus spear and Kibisis.
“Anyway, I can't see myself owning anything with this guy's cause and effect.”
Seojun shook his head.
Of course, 25 million won of money obtained from the mancheol and the disposal of the body remained, so fortunately there was no worry in terms of life.
“Because I just need to get the money back.”
Seojun didn't care much.
Originally, there is no such thing as money, and there is no law.
Above all, there was no reason to be unfair because it was not a gamble, but a purchase of equipment.
And when you buy a new piece of equipment, you should test it out.
“A dungeon raid right after being discharged... Wouldn’t it be nice to take a little break?”
Seo-jun asked Seo-yoon to reserve a dungeon.
“You’re fine, but what are you doing resting? We need to make money quickly.”
“You got a prize this time, right?”
“I wrote all of them.”
“yes? Did you write it all down? 400 million? where the hell...?”
Seeing Seo-yoon asking with her eyes wide open, Seo-joon lifted the spear of Longinus he was holding and said.
“I bought these, but I used them all.”
“window...? why no window. What I gave you...”
Seoyoon stopped talking and kept her mouth shut.
It was because the spear Seo-joon was holding seemed unusual to criticize him for spending 400 million won just to buy one.
“Um... you must be impatient to try it out.”
“That is the correct answer.”
Seojun smiled and moved on.
“Well, it's Seo-jun's money, so I'm not going to argue about it... but what's not Cheolbong?”
Seoyoon looked at Seojun and moved along.
Whoops.
The dungeon Seojun and Seoyoon entered was the dungeon of the 4-star monster Gargoyle.
As Dream Academy was promoted to the 3rd division, 4-star dungeon raids were possible.
However, an academy official had to join, and that was the reason Seoyoon came with him.
“Be careful. I'll step in if it's dangerous, but there may be unforeseen circumstances.”
“yes.”
Seojun nodded and moved slowly.
Gargoyles were unusual monsters that were usually stone statues, but came to life when an intruder was discovered.
Since the body itself was a stone statue, it was a monster that ranked high among 4-star monsters in terms of defense.
The appearance of the gargoyle after some time has passed.
Koo Goo Goo.
The gargoyle also sensed Seo-jun, and a small vibration occurred and the stone statue began to move.
Seo-jun kicked the ground and rushed at the gargoyle.
It was because it took time for the gargoyle to fully move from the stone statue.
Of course, it is still a stone statue, so its defense is strong.
Whoo!
That's why Seojun lightly swung the spear of Longinus.
First, it was to test the power of Longinus's spear, which did not contain reverse divergence or Merlin's mana.
No matter how good a gargoyle is in terms of defense, it should be able to deal damage with Longinus' spear.
however.
squeak.
The gargoyle split like tofu.
cooong.
It collapsed and did not move.
“......huh?”
“......huh?”
Seojun and Seoyoon took a question mark at the same time.
Two people facing each other.
Both of their mouths opened at the same time.
“What happened?”
“How did…?”
What if you ask me about it?
Seoyoon desperately suppressed the words that were about to come out.
