Chapter 558 Technological Revolution (5)
A few weeks ago.
France was also invited.
The Korean Empire informed them that they were planning to hold a technical presentation regarding the production of mana weapons, but the topic of the second part was not separately announced in the schedule divided into parts 1 and 2.
With ‘Park Chul-min’s incident’, countries around the world have already shown interest in the new technology of the Korean Empire.
Of course, he expressed his intention to attend, but Patrice, the president of France, could not positively accept such a move by the Korean Empire.
‘This announcement is not a matter that can be simply passed over.
If the Korean Empire possesses the technological power to cause a technological revolution, it is only a matter of time before they swallow up the mana weapon manufacturing market.’
mana weapon.
It is the hope of mankind.
In a situation where weapons supplied through monsters were limited, the mana weapon production market was traded in huge amounts every year, enough to be described as a gold mine.
What will happen if one country monopolizes it? Taking hold of the world economy in an instant was not a job.
Beyond simply the precedents of oil countries securing enormous wealth in the past, mana weapons were directly related to people’s survival issues.
Areas that cannot be ruled out.
In a market where suppliers have an absolute advantage, the leap of the Korean Empire was obvious without experiencing it.
‘It is impossible to punish Roman Dmitri by force. As it has already been proven through the precedent of Russia, in the end, only Dmitri’s advent is the way to solve all the problems. The role of Maronism is to hold on to the Korean Empire’s ankles as much as possible until it achieves a dimension shift. Through this technology presentation, we must somehow stop giving wings to the Korean Empire.’
The world has changed day by day.
Since the Korean Empire exists at the center, Patrice immediately contacted Sebastian and told him what he thought.
“Please lend me the technical skills of Maronism. Maronism has been at the forefront of this turbulent era since the beginning of the cataclysm. Apart from the religious ideology of Maronism, Maronism is equipped with overwhelming technological power to the extent that people completely trust the results that have been researched and presented. We need that power now. If the Korean Empire proves that their technological prowess is nothing at an announcement, the Korean Empire will lose its power to soar and fall.”
Maronism.
They are not just religion.
As evidenced by their steps in researching and announcing catastrophes, they also led mankind in terms of technology.
Patrice’s plan made sense.
Sebastian also supported his opinion.
[i get it. I will send Bernardo, a pioneer who oversees Maronism research. With his knowledge, he would identify the problems of the technology announced by the Korean Empire and lead the situation by presenting more.]
“Thank you!”
Patrice’s face brightened.
Pioneer Bernardo.
He was a world-class researcher who proved numerous theories currently in use in the world.
That was enough.
As the smiles on their faces prove, the technology presentation will not go smoothly as the Korean Empire intended.
* * *
It was the day of the technical presentation.
Patrice, who moved through the teleportation magic circle, was guided by the soldiers of the Korean Empire waiting in advance.
“I will guide you to the presentation venue.”
“okay.”
Patrice and her attendants.
They followed the guide and moved on.
The scenery of Incheon was impressive.
Obviously, even a few months ago, the city was full of despair, but in a short time, the city was reorganized and revitalized.
It was the ability of Incheon Mayor Kim Jun-hyeok.
Even in the days when he was not receiving proper support, he developed Incheon, and after gaining a strong background as Roman Dmitry, he showed his ability to the fullest.
It was very annoying.
The stability of the Korean Empire was not a good thing for Maronism.
The problem was not only that.
“… It may be a cause for concern, but all the soldiers I encountered on the way seem to be quite strong. The regular soldiers are also well organized, and in particular, there is not a single person who is presumed to be directly under the rank C or lower. At least a B grade, maybe even more.”
“Are you sure?”
“yes. I’m sure.”
Patrice’s expression twisted.
The words whispered quietly by the attendant gave him another look at the soldiers advancing ahead.
Come to think of it, it was as the attendant said.
Most of the general soldiers are those who have not awakened as hunters, but the soldiers of the Korean Empire showed sharp momentum as one apart from that fact.
Suddenly, a rumor came to mind.
Kang Min-ho, who is in charge of the guardians of the Korean Empire, was only an E-class hunter, but after being promoted to 2nd level to C-class, she was classified as A-class in recognition of her previous convictions in a catastrophe.
It was definitely strange. An existence like Kang Min-ho would not threaten France, but the mere fact that such a case had been born was annoying.
how.
What is going on in the Korean Empire?
A country that was classified as a weak country worldwide was growing rapidly after the appearance of Roman Dmitri.
‘It is certainly. If Roman Dmitri is left alone, the Korean Empire will adversely affect the cause of Maronism in the future. The only way to save humanity is to keep them in check and hasten the dimension shift.’
His eyes changed sharply.
Visiting the Korean Empire in person made my will firm.
These were dangerous.
Roman Dmitri, who was making the world his center in a shorter time than Wang Wi-ryong, who once talked about conquering the continent, had to be punished first.
For the one who will descend into this world someday. In order for mankind not to engage in bone-and-skin warfare, Maronism had to succeed regardless of His will.
I didn’t worry about the technical presentation.
A man walking after him.
As long as Bernardo, who hides his identity by wearing a robe, exists, this presentation will end in catastrophe.
* * *
Key figures from each country.
They were seated in the presentation room.
Not only John Harrison of the United States, but Patrice of France, as well as world-class giants all attended, and they exchanged conversations and expressed their anticipation for the upcoming presentation.
Roman Dmitri is a person who has been disruptive in the past. I wouldn’t have brought in so many people to announce a technology that was nothing.
The time has finally come.
The curtains that covered the stage were opened on both sides.
slither.
“Ohh.”
“To implement a forge on stage.”
“Are you saying you want to show me how you work?”
like people’s reactions.
There was a forge on the stage.
A fire pit and other utensils were set up, and at the same time minimum safety equipment was prepared to keep the spectators out of harm’s way.
People showed curious eyes. Usually, technology presentations do not show the process in detail in order not to leak technology.
However, the implementation of the blacksmithing meant that it would be accompanied by an explanation of how the technology was manifested in front of people.
It was then.
A spotlight shone and a man appeared on the stage.
Bubbly.
tight physique.
white-washed hair.
Anyone familiar with the mana weapon market knew that he was Park Gwang-deok, the Master of Miracle.
Park Gwang-deok stopped walking.
He stood in the middle of the stage, grabbed the mic and said.
“We will start the technical presentation from now on. Anyone familiar with the mana weapon crafting market will be aware of the problems that arise between iron and mana weapons. The moment you craft a mana weapon using crafting skills, the weapon loses its strength as an iron weapon. This is a problem that mankind has not been able to solve. A gap in work reduces the quality of iron weapons, and no matter how good a weapon is, it is not uncommon for it to break because it cannot handle tough battles. The case where an S-class weapon was auctioned off at 200 billion won three years ago and was broken in the first battle is an example that clearly reveals the problems in the current mana weapon market.”
People’s eyes shook.
Obvious talk.
Talking about a chronic problem that everyone knows seemed to mean that they would solve that problem from now on.
agitated people.
Park Kwang-deok anticipated people’s reactions.
People who were knowledgeable about mana weapons, like he was, couldn’t help but be ignorant of the meaning of this presentation.
“It’s the look everyone expected. you’re right. We’ve found a way to solve a chronic problem with mana weapons in the Korean Empire. After this presentation, weapons with no guaranteed durability will no longer be rated high simply because of their high skill expression. I’ll show you now. The new technology of the Korean Empire.”
Took.
put the mic down
After moving to the fire pit, he prepared for work in earnest by arranging the tools around him.
My heart raced.
With the whole world watching, and the idea of introducing a new technology that shocked people. Last month, Park Kwang-deok lived really crazy.
Dungma, who was eating rice, spent the entire day at the blacksmith shop, and with such hard work, he was able to make Roman Dmitri’s technique his own.
Roman Dmitry said.
I will give you the stage.
In the future, the Korean Empire’s mana weapon market will be led by the craftsmen of the Korean Empire, led by themselves.
‘Let me show you. The efforts of the past.’
Hwareuk.
Roaring.
The furnace caught fire.
As the hot heat colored the stage, Park Kwang-deok began to pound hard on the red-hot steel.
Caang!
Kaang Kaang!
From then on, it was a series of tedious tasks.
repetitive action.
repetitive work.
But people didn’t take their eyes off it.
I thought that if it was simply to show old-fashioned work, I would not have invited big names from around the world.
It was then.
When the work progressed to a certain extent, magic power exploded according to the hammering.
Caang!
Roaring.
The flames roared.
The mana rose so strongly that it was visible, and whenever Park Gwang-deok repeated the hammering, it was sucked into the steel.
A technique introduced by Roman Dmitri. He implemented it in his own way. Artisans like Park Gwang-deok were not lacking in skills.
It was a problem that was revealed due to the limitations of the times, but when Roman Dmitri suggested a way, it showed an instant development.
Caang!
Kaang Kaang!
The atmosphere heated up.
Park Gwang-deok’s eyes were colored with desire.
Excited.
The fact that he was working on a new technology by grafting it on Park Kwang-deok felt an indescribable sense of fulfillment.
like that.
Passsss.
1 hour of work done.
A time that can be boring if you’re bored.
Park Gwang-deok showed people the steel shimmering with mana in the audience seat stained with static.
The amount of mana was insignificant in a short amount of time, but the mana contained was sufficient.
“This is the new future created by the Korean Empire that will change the mana weapon market.”
* * *
Before announcement.
Patrice said to the people sitting next to him.
“Wouldn’t it be obvious anyway? The Korean Empire is not a mana or weapon powerhouse, and there is no way that it will suddenly announce a special technology.”
“I just think of this recital as a kind of show. Since the reputation of the Korean Empire has not yet been fully established, it is clear that they are trying to highlight even a small achievement as much as possible. The words will be at the level of supplementing some of the existing technologies in the technology presentation.”
At Patrice’s words.
Others also agreed.
Technological development does not happen in a short time, so I thought that the Korean Empire, which had not shown anything in the meantime, would suddenly lead the mana weapon market.
Nevertheless, the reason I attended this event was because of the presence of Roman Dmitri. There was no one who would refuse an invitation from an existence that is now classified as transcendental.
like that.
presentation has begun.
At first, Patrice, who watched with a calm face, couldn’t hide her embarrassment from the moment the mana exploded.
Caang!
Roaring.
‘… What the hell is this?’
roaring flames.
exploding mana.
Seeing the mana being absorbed into the steel by hammering, Patrice knew that things were going strangely.
Even if you are not a craftsman who makes mana weapons yourself, you know the basic concept.
The process of making a mana weapon requires a blank to infuse mana, but Park Gwang-deok omitted that process.
not a skill.
I managed to infuse mana with a hammer.
From then on, my heart was beating like crazy, and when I glanced around, I saw the faces of people who were mesmerized by the stage.
‘It’s a big deal. The Korean Empire really had the technology to cause a revolution.’
gritted it
It was different from the plan.
At this rate, there was a high probability that the situation would proceed as the Korean Empire wanted.
All I can trust is Bernardo.
Since Maronism arguably had the world’s best technology, Bernardo believed that there was a way to somehow reduce the achievements of the Korean Empire in the current situation.
I couldn’t watch it comfortably any longer because of my anxious mind. Every time people admired the hammering, Patrice’s heart burned black.
Finally.
The work is done.
Park Gwang-deok picked up the steel and showed it to everyone.
“This is the new future created by the Korean Empire that will change the mana weapon market.”
little bit of silence.
and.
“Waaaaaaaa!”
“it’s crazy!”
“This is amazing!”
Cheers like deterioration erupted.
People cheered like crazy.
People present at this place had the insight to recognize at once how great Park Kwang-deok’s technique was.
It was a situation that Patrice did not want.
He hurriedly looked at Bernardo.
I tried to ask him if he had found the problem.
however.
“Wheeiik! Bravo! This is a revolution, a revolution!”
Pioneer Bernardo.
He, whom Patrice believed in, was cheering along with the people, forgetting his original purpose.
