Free Web NovelChapter 19: Level Up
The money was received in cold hard cash, and Richard immediately left the store and promptly checked the notification of his system.
[Congratulations! The Level of the System has risen up to level 2!]
[Current Reconstruction Restrictions:]
Maximum Reconstruction Weight: >2000 kilograms
Maximum Reconstruction Volume:
5m × 2m × 2m
[Daily Reconstruction Capacity: 10/10]
Current Profit Quota:
₱0 / ₱50,000,000]
Seeing the update of the system, Richard frowned. Well, he was happy that his system had levelled up but what the heck is that? 50,000,000 pesos or about 2 million usd to level up to level three? That’s absurd. He expected it would be around 10,000,000 or about 200,000 USD but he was wrong.
Well, at least the daily reconstruction limit increased from 1 to 10, so he could reconstruct objects more in a day than his typical one reconstruction per day.
The weight and dimensions were also updated.
With those dimensions, he could probably reconstruct something like a motorcycle now. freewёbnoνel.com
Or maybe even a small car component.
An engine block.
Industrial machinery.
Large generators.
The possibilities immediately expanded inside Richard’s head.
And honestly?
That was far more exciting than the money.
Because money was merely the result.
The system itself was the real treasure.
Richard continued walking through Glorietta while reading the updated information carefully.
Then suddenly—
Another notification appeared.
[New Feature Unlocked.]
Richard immediately focused.
Then another screen expanded.
[Advanced Reconstruction Authority Unlocked.]
[New Functions Available:]
Industrial Reconstruction
Precision Material Engineering
Multi-Object Reconstruction
Blueprint Reconstruction
Richard stopped walking.
Completely stopped.
Several shoppers nearly bumped into him.
But Richard didn’t care.
Because his attention was locked onto the final line.
Blueprint Reconstruction.
"What the hell is that?"
The system immediately responded.
[Blueprint Reconstruction allows the host to reconstruct objects using detailed technical specifications rather than requiring a direct reference object.]
"Wait, so does that mean I only need the blueprint for reconstruction? There’s no need for me to have an object? It’ll reconstruct air into an object? Am I getting it right?"
He didn’t know whether he was talking directly to the system or not.
But somehow the system understood the question.
Immediately, another notification appeared.
[Negative.]
Richard blinked.
Then another screen expanded.
[Blueprint Reconstruction still requires reconstruction material.]
[Objects cannot be created from nothing.]
[Mass conservation remains mandatory.]
Richard nodded slightly.
Okay.
That made more sense.
Then another notification appeared.
[Blueprint Reconstruction allows the host to use suitable raw materials instead of requiring a direct object template.]
Richard stopped walking again.
Hold on.
That sounded important.
Very important.
Then suddenly examples began appearing before him.
[Example:]
100 kilograms of steel scrap
→ Blueprint Reconstruction
→ Industrial Lathe Machine
Provided sufficient material exists.
Richard’s eyes widened slightly.
Then another example appeared.
[Example:]
Electronic scrap
Copper
Plastic
Aluminum
→ Blueprint Reconstruction
→ Laptop Computer
Provided technical specifications are available.
Silence.
Complete silence.
Because Richard suddenly understood.
Level 1 and Level 2 were fundamentally different.
Completely different.
Level 1 required an object.
A watch became another watch.
Jewelry became better jewelry.
Everything needed a reference.
Meanwhile Level 2?
The system was essentially allowing manufacturing.
Actual manufacturing.
The implications immediately exploded inside Richard’s head.
Because now he wasn’t limited to luxury goods anymore.
He could potentially buy raw materials directly.
Scrap metal.
Old electronics.
Industrial waste.
Then convert them into finished products.
The more he thought about it...
The more ridiculous it became.
Then another realization hit him.
Wait.
A blueprint? So he still needs a blueprint? Isn’t most products’ blueprint proprietary? So he needs to have access to a certain blueprint, buy the materials required to make it, and then the system reconstructs it.
"Eh? With this, why would I bother buying materials when I can just buy a wrecked one and then reconstruct it," Richard muttered.
Honestly?
That was the first flaw he immediately spotted.
Why buy steel scrap?
Why buy copper?
Why buy aluminum?
Why buy raw materials separately?
If he could simply buy a broken motorcycle for cheap and reconstruct it into a brand-new motorcycle, wasn’t that easier?
The system immediately responded.
[Blueprint Reconstruction is not intended to replace standard reconstruction.]
Richard raised an eyebrow.
Then another notification appeared.
[Blueprint Reconstruction advantages:]
Allows creation of objects without existing template.
Allows creation of discontinued products.
Allows creation of custom-designed products.
Allows creation of host-designed products.
Richard stopped walking again.
Host-designed products?
Wait.
Wait a second.
That sounded important.
Very important.
Then another screen appeared.
[Example:]
Host blueprint
→ Submitted to system
→ Reconstruction possible
Provided reconstruction requirements are met.
Richard’s eyes widened.
A lot.
Because that changed everything.
Absolutely everything.
Before this moment, he thought Blueprint Reconstruction was merely a convenience feature.
Now?
Not anymore.
Because if he understood correctly...
Then theoretically...
He didn’t need somebody else’s blueprint.
He could create his own.
His mind immediately drifted back toward his years repairing electronics.
Years looking at phones.
Years seeing what customers complained about.
Battery life.
Broken charging ports.
Fragile screens.
Overheating.
Cheap construction.
Suddenly another realization hit him. freeweɓnovel.cøm
He wasn’t just a cellphone technician.
He was also a system user.
Meaning he now possessed something manufacturers didn’t.
The ability to instantly prototype.
Instantly test.
Instantly manufacture.
His breathing slowly became heavier.
Because that was ridiculous.
Actually ridiculous.
Normally, creating a product required enormous resources.
Engineers.
Factories.
Prototypes.
Testing.
Investors.
Years of development.
Millions in funding.
Meanwhile the system was basically telling him:
Bring materials.
Bring a blueprint.
And it’ll build the thing.
"Very well, okay, good, good."
Richard already understood the new features of the system. Now, it was time to go home.
