Jung Daesik asked Major Mikhail in his regret.

"Can't you collect these monster corpses on the way home?"

Major Mikhail shook his head.

“Unfortunately, the decay rate of monster corpses outside the dungeon increases significantly.”

“Isn’t this a cold region? Is that still the case?”

“The decay rate may be a little slower, but it is the same. Besides, it's not that cold here. It's cold now because the sun is hidden in the sky, but if you defeat Chernobog, the temperature in the area will return to normal. Then it will quickly rot and disappear.”

「Hmmm……」

Jung Daesik was nauseous because it was a pity. He's hunting to train his troops anyway, so he can't just say it's a waste, but whatever it is, it's a waste.

Unable to walk away from these numerous monster corpses, Jung Daesik looked at entropy and asked.

"Hey, entropy."

Seeing the entropy that suddenly appeared, Major Mikhail, who was next to him, flinched. It was the same with other soldiers. It seemed that he was still not used to entropy, which appeared and disappeared from time to time. It was even more so because entropy was in the form of a young girl who did not fit into such a lively place.

"Isn't there a skill that can handle monster corpses?"

"I know. But it has a small area of ​​effect. To dismantle a large monster, you would have to use the skill ten times?"

It wasn't that Jung Daesik didn't think of an easier way to deal with monsters. However, even if there are related skills, if they are not upgraded enough, the effect is insignificant.

I broke 1 billion when I leveled up once, so I needed 9 billion to just make level 10. I was saving money on combat skills to upgrade the shop, but it was a shame to waste money on those skills.

"what is that?"

"Compression box?"

"How much can you reduce?"

"You mean 10 billion won for the cheapest one?"

"In that case, it would be better to learn the dismantling skill and sell it to the store from time to time! There's no reason to buy a compressed box and carry it with you, right?"

After saying that, Jung Daesik suddenly changed his mind.

"No, wait. If you learn the dismantling skill, put the monster corpse in a compression box, and sell it to a by-product disposal facility later... Can you get a fair price?"

Jung Daesik quickly shook his head.

'Obtain the dismantling skill and upgrade up to level 5 first. Then you can spend 4 billion. Even if it's a bit annoying, you have to use the skill several times. Then, if you spend 10 billion won to buy a compressed box... You'll be left with even pulling out the main story as a by-product of the monster you got here.'

If it stops, it's worth the investment, Jung Daesik said.

"Okay. Get the dismantling skill and upgrade to level 5."

"I'll buy a compression box. The cheapest one."

With this, 14 billion flew away.

The remaining balance is about 120 billion won.

It was not that there was no money earned in the meantime, but compensation in Hawaii was still there, so it was a long way to collect 1 trillion. Jung Daesik sighed deeply when he realized that he had to raise 880 billion won more.

'So, when are you going to upgrade the shop by collecting 1 set? Should I just upgrade the skill that I am satisfied with to level 6?'

I was skeptical about whether I should upgrade the store while spending a trillion dollars. Even at level 6, there were a number of skills that had not yet been acquired. If you keep upgrading the skills you already have, you can become the strongest person.

Nevertheless, the reason why I could not give up level 7 was due to the feeling of a certain limit at level 6.

It is none other than a combination of skills.

'My fighting ability is sufficient with strong power, invincibility right, and counterattack right. It's not enough to upgrade one's steel body as well as defense. Already equipped with M-class equipment, upgrading these skills simply increases the destructive power. I need more than that.'

Jung Daesik wanted to use his entropy to make better use of his entropy when he wanted to upgrade his shop.

Jung Daesik made his entropy a kind of partner by being an all-in-one who acquired all the abilities of his class.

Not only did he deploy entropy in battle through implementation, change, and reinforcement, but he was able to accept all the information that entropy obtains through the link.

However, it was unreasonable to say that Jung Daesik became the target ego weapon in the first place. This is because entropy cannot use skills on its own. Jung Daesik had to give orders one by one, but even if consciousness was shared through a link, there was a sense that it was insufficient in an urgent battle situation. At the very least, there is some inconvenience in using the skill.

To weaponize entropy, it had to go through three stages: implementation, transformation, and reinforcement. In addition, there was a limit to operating entropy because the attack skill had to be specified separately.

But what if you could combine these skills at once, implementing, changing, and strengthening them?

The command given to entropy itself is greatly reduced.

In particular, the inconvenience of the status enhancement skill will disappear.

The status enhancement skills were divided into six basic items: strength, magic power, stamina, five senses, agility, and luck.

To activate this, you had to specify the skill of the specific item you want to improve and activate it.

In other words, if you want to improve the physical condition of all items, you have to activate six skills one by one.

If the target is Jung Daesik himself, even if it's a bit annoying, it won't be a problem.

However, the skill became a problem as the target designation status was improved and the target became the unit members.

There are only six members of the squad, but there are only six types of skills, so it is difficult to improve all of them.

So now I was focusing on increasing my horsepower, but from what Jung Daesik personally experienced, it was good to improve all the states evenly. So, if you can activate these six types of status enhancement skills by tying them together, it won't be that convenient.

In addition, the money wasted to upgrade six skills would be able to save a lot. Since there are six status enhancement skill items, it cost 6 billion won just to upgrade one level.

But what if these skills could be combined and integrated into one?

For Jung Daesik, this is something to be cheered for.

Of course, the concept of combining skills itself could not exist in the 7th level shop.

Even if there was such a method, the effect could be greatly reduced when leveling up.

However, it was clear that the level 7 store would have a higher level of skill than it is now.

It means that there may be skills that have a greater effect just by acquiring them than by upgrading 6 types of status enhancement skills to level 10.

Acquiring the skill itself is only 10 million won, so even if it costs 1 trillion, it was correct to upgrade the shop to level 7, which has a higher level of skill.

That's why, if you don't know if you're going to upgrade the shop at all, it was foolish to invest money in skill upgrades at this stage.

Since the skill's max level is a whopping 100, it will cost a lot of money to make the skill of the initial stage to max level.

Above all, there were things that were not yet in the store.

'There are no MAX skills in the level 6 shop. It's just saying that you don't have a perfect skill just by acquiring it.'

Jung Daesik thinks that the most financially efficient is a perfect skill that MAX just by acquiring it.

Once such a skill was acquired, there was no need to invest any more money. What other skill could be more useful to Jung Daesik, a jarin gobi?However, there was no such skill in the store up to level 6.

There is no guarantee that you will have such a skill if you go to level 7, but it was something to do with the shop upgrade anyway.

Entropy could grow by upgrading to at least level 7. It is possible to reach the level of an ego weapon that uses skills on its own.

'The problem is money... Damn it.'

Jung Daesik swallowed the sigh that came out. And he looked into the air and muttered his swear words, "Why do you have to worry about money when you have hundreds of billions of assets, even in cash?"

After that, he used the dismantling skill to go around the monster corpses scattered everywhere in order to earn even a million won more.

"Dismantling."

Paah!

Most of the monsters of any size were dealt with because they were level 5, but the 3m long monster had to use the dismantling skill twice.

After using the dismantling, the monster corpse was cleanly divided into each part, and there was nothing to touch.

Putting the organized monster corpses into the compression box was a neat finish. The compressed box was at most the size of Post Office No. 1, so it was very convenient.

Jung Daesik, with its subspace, didn't even need to carry it around. When you're done, pour it out in the subspace and that's it.

Seeing Jung Daesik use his dismantling skill, his troops as well as the soldiers widened their eyes. Monster corpses are a waste of their money, so they were carefully selecting only the parts that made the most money.

It was difficult because the horse was picking out the monsters, and the processing of the monsters was to remove the flesh and bones. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and if the craftsmanship was poor, the value of the by-products would be reduced.

Of course, Jung Daesik, a former porter, was astounding at the by-products even before he acquired his dismantling skills. He used to use his emotional skills to pick just a few things that would make money and treat them like a ghost.

However, it was upgraded to a higher level, and if you just mumble the starter words, the monster corpses are all sorted out.

"Captain's talents are getting more and more mysterious with each passing day."

At the blunt God Deok-hwa saying a word, Jae-woo Lee grumbled without notice.

"The talent goes beyond the bear, and the money comes from people..."

Ki Cheol-min struck Lee Jae-woo's head.

"Do you think the captain will devour the monsters we catch by himself? Why are we hunting monsters now? Isn't it all training to improve our skills? Is money important?"

Jaewoo Lee quickly realized his mistake and woke up. Jung Daesik continued to dismantle the monster and said:

"I'll take care of this here, so you all go and rest. You've worked hard today."

"Is that okay?"

"You have to rest to become stronger than you are now. Go quickly!"

Jung Daesik drove away the murmuring troops. And he looked closely at the dead monster.
