Overgeared Chapter 592:
A Dungeon Maker could build dungeons underground, in caves, inside buildings, etc .
The rating of the constructed dungeon varied according to the location, design, and scale . The higher the rating of the dungeon, the greater the number of traps and monsters that could be placed . Therefore, the rank of the dungeon was a factor that directly contributed to the difficult .
[The third section of the ‘Beware Dogs’ dungeon has been completed . ]
[The third section is structurally capable of placing 8 traps and 193 monsters . However, you can’t place flying-type monsters . ]
[This is a unique-rated dungeon . As a bonus, experience has increased by 10% and all stats have increased by 6 . ]
[Every time someone destroys a trap or hunts a monster, you will share some of their experience . You can acquire a certain amount of gold and building materials every time someone acquires items . If a dungeon explorer dies during the dungeon, you will receive various special rewards . ]
The dungeon ‘Beware Dogs’ built in the Dravian Mountains by Dark was his masterpiece . It was a structure that thoroughly blocked intruders to protect ‘it,’ which would someday become its master . Of course, dungeons built by Dark weren’t always used for this purpose .
Dungeons were a highly utilized space . Dark sometimes produced dungeons that trained his allies or were easy to attack for his own benefits . Often, he created special dungeons such as a ghost house and charged for admission, creating a tourist attraction .
In any case, Dark didn’t doubt that Beware Dogs would fully protect him as he intended . But there was still a long time left until it was finished . The production time and cost for the dungeon was too big . In particular, money . More money was needed .
‘Should I raise the commission cost for Blood Carnival?’
No, he couldn’t be too greedy . Competitors in the same industry had been on the rise in recent years, so he had to be nervous .
‘There are too many bad guys in the world . ’
In the shadowy parts of the world, he could see all of them . There were those who harmed others casually, those who killed people for a reason, etc .
Kaaang! Kaaang!
Puok! Puk .
Suksak .
He repeatedly knocked down walls with a pickaxe, dug with a shovel, and built new walls with bricks . Dark was deeply involved in the creation of the dungeon when he felt skeptical .
‘What is this feeling? I have a hidden class, but have to do hard labor every day?’
He looked at the pickaxe and shovel he never touched in reality and was appalled .
“Sigh . . . Still, I’m glad because it’s a class that can earn me many rewards . ”
Dark sighed deeply . He was a lot like someone . That someone was naturally . . .
“Magic Missile! Magic Missile! Magic Missile! Magic . . . Oh! Hey, this #@!$%~!”
Grid .
Grid used Magic Missile for hours on the iron ore placed on the anvil . He already emptied a few mana potions in his mouth and asked Braham again for confirmation .
“Is this real? Can I really learn the Magic Battle Gear Production Method by repeating this?”
Braham replied to the desperate looking Grid .
‘That’s right . After hitting the iron ore 10,000 times, you need to hit the jaffa ore 10,000 times and then orichalcum 10,000 . . . If you continue this process, you will eventually strike adamantium and bloodstone 10,000 times and you will be qualified to learn the Magic Battle Gear Production Method . ’
“Eh . . . ??”
It wasn’t just iron ore? Grid doubted his ears but didn’t forget to use Magic Missile . Then a notification window appeared .
[Your intelligence has increased by 1 . ]
[Your magic accuracy has increased by 0 . 01% . ]
“Ohhh!”
It was fortunate that his stats increased from labor . He was particularly pleased that his intelligence stat was increasing .
‘ . . . ’
Grid had just been cursing and now he was as happy as a child . Braham thought it was absurd .
‘There’s such a simple person in this world?’
He wasn’t disparaging this simplicity . Braham thought that Grid’s talent came from this simplicity .
‘In particular, his simple personality plays a big part when he focuses on repetitive work . ’
A huge smile . Grid was happy at the sight of his rising stats and Braham whispered to him .
‘Please note that you can learn new magic if your intelligence increases a bit more . ’
“R-Really? Okay! Magic Missile! Magic Missile!”
Teong! Teong!
[Your intelligence has increased by 1 . ]
[Your magic accuracy has increased by 0 . 01% . ]
[Magic Mastery has increased by Lv . 5 to Lv . 6 . ]
There was compensation . Labor was always right . It didn’t matter if it was hard .
“Pant pant! Magic Missile! Pant pant! Magic Missile! Magic Missile!”
Grid’s satisfaction rose . His enthusiasm rose from the increasing stats and he continued to hit the iron ore with Magic Missile . At first, the iron ore was damaged or penetrated by Grid’s Magic Missile, but now it was become firmer every time . It was the process of training his magic .
***
Minor . He had been serving Grid since he was a 13 year old boy . Now the talent forcefully obtained by Grid in Bairan had turned 18 years old . What had he been doing for the past five years? He was exploring all over the continent for new and better quality minerals . It was very difficult . It had been difficult to find new minerals during his stay in Reidan .
But the power of education was terrible! His qualities had blossomed due to Grid forcing him to study, and at this moment, he found new minerals . The Dravian Mountains . It was renowned for being the nest of Light Dragon Nevartan .
‘This is really . . . !’ I feel the aura of a new mineral!’
Now he had good news to tell Duke Grid .
‘No, he isn’t a duke, but a king . ’
Minor originally disliked Grid . Minor’s pride was high in the sky because he was such a unique genius and he thought it was shameful to serve only a duke . Minor thought that only the emperor of the Saharan Empire was qualified to become his master .
But his thoughts had changed recently . Despite being a commoner like Minor, Grid became a great nobleman and was even qualified to become the king of a nation . Minor’s impression of Grid changed a lot .
‘This is a person I can serve . ’
Minor was determined to serve Grid in the future . He would perform faithfully under Grid and learn a lot .
‘Huhuhu . . . Then one day I will become a noble and a king . ’
From now on, his goal was to become the second Grid . Minor felt resolved and pulled a pickaxe out of his bag . He planned to maximize his achievements by taking the newly discovered mineral directly to Grid . Grid utilized Minor as a minerals detector, but he liked mining more .
Minor, who was as greedy as Grid and as self-conscious as Lauel, started climbing the Dravian Mountains . He had developed great mobility skills and raised his strength, stamina, and persistence while exploring the continent for the past several years .

“Magic Missile! Magic Missile! Magic Missile!”
The average time it took to use Magic Missile (Enhanced) Lv . 3 was 1 . 5 seconds . The cooldown time was less than one second, but this calculation was when it was used repeatedly due to the very short activation time . It consumed 420 mana for one . Thanks to various titles and items, his total intelligence was over 1,900 and his mana was 12,000 .
Calculating it simply, Grid’s mana was depleted when Magic Missile was used without rest for 40 seconds . There were limits, even if he took a mana potion . There was a waiting time for the potion reuse time . In other words, it was theoretically impossible for Grid to launch Magic Missile for dozens of minutes .
Yet Grid had already used Magic Missile for over four hours . It was due to the Ring of Absurdity that reduced the consumption of resources by 50% .
‘This game is truly about items . ’
Grid realized the undeniable truth again and smiled with delight . The moment the 10,000th Magic Missile hit the iron ore .
[You have learned the Iron Ore Magic Training method . ]
[In the future, you can train the iron ore with various attack spells . The power and skill of the magic you use will determine the speed of the iron ore training . ]
[The magically tempered minerals have a lower durability than traditionally handled minerals, but there is a possibility that special magic options will be attached . The types of options depends on the magic you use to temper it . ]
“Oh . . . ! Ohh!!”
Grid’s joy pierced the sky after repeating the same thing for 4 hours and 10 minutes . Braham urged Grid as he was checking the rewards .
'Wouldn’t it be better to keep using Magic Missile? Next is the jaffa ore . ’
Perhaps Braham wasn’t aware of his own emotions . Braham’s voice also sounded excited and Grid laughed .
‘I want to see the magic battle gear that you can create quickly . ’
Iron ore, jaffa, mithril, orihalcum, black iron ore, blue orichalcum, and finally adamantium and bloodstone . Grid had to strike at least 19 types of metals 10,000 times and it would take at least a week . Of course, this included the stamina recovery time and Satisfy connection time limit .
The same process needed to be repeated for a week or more . It would be terrible and disgusting for another person . But it wasn’t a big deal for Grid . Grid wasn’t frustrated because it merely required patience, not talent . Not giving up was Grid’s specialty .
[The long term magic use has slowed magic recovery speed and the mana deployment speed . ]
[You are tired . Stamina is consumed more quickly . You have resisted . ]
'It might take 10 days instead of a week . ’
The system started to interfere . But Grid’s expression didn’t change at all . He had perfectly adapted to this training .
‘Isabel, wait a little longer . I will surely give you the best spear . ’
There was no anxiety . Grid’s expression was calm as he started striking the jaffa ore with Magic Missile . Only those waiting by the side were nervous .
‘How long is he going to repeat the same thing?’
‘Isn’t he bored? I’m dying of boredom just watching . . . ’
'Uhh, my body is tired standing next to him . I am sore . ’
‘Please go and take a rest . . . ’
Reinhardt’s blacksmiths started to be afraid of Grid’s obsession . On the other hand, Damian and Isabel looked at Grid like he was a role model . They thought that Grid’s spirit was uncommon in this world .
“Magic Missile!”
Jeeeong!
White flashes occurred in the smithy through the night . Lauel smiled at the sight from the distant walls .
“This light is the glorious future that will lead this kingdom . Hut . . . !”
The cool wind blew in the pleasant night .
