Dimensional Wanderer – Login in a world on the verge of an apocalypse

6 – World 11. Terms of the transaction (4)

“player······.”

After hearing the player’s story, I could think of two options.

‘I have to solve the fog with my own power now, or I can access the game and save that dimension.’

The problem was that both were hard to be sure of.

I wondered if I could solve the fog of death that covered the world with my own power, and it was a question that I had to log in like a game to save another dimension.

but.

For my personal gain, I had to move towards saving another dimension.

‘Because they said that the power obtained there could be used here as well.’

I don’t know how much power it is, but at least I believed it wouldn’t be a loss.

It reminded me of the time I was examining my left wrist in an abandoned building, saying that Ren was a player.

“If you become a player, will something appear on your left wrist?”

“It will appear.”

The man showed the inside of his left wrist.

There was a number engraved like a tattoo.

【31/4/88】

‘What number is it?’

As I was staring at the unknown number, the man gave a brief explanation.

“It is displayed in order of [Job Level], [Protection Level], and [Body Level]. To put it simply, my job level is 31. My protection level is 4. My physical level is 88.”

“It means there are three levels.”

“You understand right away.”

If I had to guess one more thing, it seemed that the protection level was difficult to raise.

‘Because the protection level is level 4.’

Even compared to other levels, the variance was significant.

I wondered if the way to level up was different for each level.

But it was quicker to ask him directly than to guess on my own.

“Is there a different way to raise each level?”

“Did you notice that far? As you would expect. It is relatively easy to raise the body level, but it is difficult to raise the protection level.”

“How do you raise each one?”

“Hmm.”

When I asked, the man looked at me with a thoughtful face instead of answering.

“It is not difficult to answer. By the way, do you intend to connect too?”

“I’m thinking about it.”

“I don’t personally recommend it, but… I’d like to ask how you’re going to access it.”

how?

“Looks like you need something.”

“Of course, but I need a connector. In order to run the connector, you need to authenticate yourself, so you also need a biometric ID. But don’t you have both?”

“…”

As the man said, I didn’t have either, but I figured if I put a little effort I could get it somehow.

That’s because I don’t have one or two abilities.

The problem was that as this world was on the verge of destruction, many things would happen the moment he showed his ability.

‘Well, it’s usually a problem caused by people.’

To be more precise, there was a high possibility that problems would arise due to each person’s goals and greed.

At that time, the man crossed his arms with his rugged forearms and made a suggestion.

“But as I said, I will help. If you fix the interface, you will be able to access it without biometric ID.”

“Is it possible?”

“If it’s just going to another dimension. Conversely, other functions or games are impossible because the biometric ID cannot be read.”

From what I heard, without a biometric ID, it seemed that it was difficult to use other functions other than access.

‘Anyway, listening to what I’ve said so far, this is…’

It was certain that it was the world of the future.

Wouldn’t there be useful things besides the future world and connectors?

I put aside the story of the death fog and the salvation of the other world for a while and asked about that first.

“Is a biometric ID required to use the items here?”

The man smiled, raising the corner of his mouth, as if he had grasped my intention from my question.

His eyes felt like he was looking at a country boy.

“Most of them are. Come to think of it, did you say that your world barely managed to go into space? I bet there will be plenty of things to catch your eye on.”

“Then I should get that biometric ID as well.”

“You don’t even need money there. Well. Do you have anything other than food in your subspace?”

“There are a lot of things.”

From the first world to the tenth world.

Since it was the first world I had obtained a subspace, it would not be an exaggeration to say that I had collected all the worlds I had passed through.

Among them were the machine-dominated world and the modern world.

“I’m glad to hear that there are many. I can select good things and secretly sell them.”

“But is it possible?”

The huge man in front of me now thought I had come from a world inferior to this one.

That is, it is a thing of the modern world.

Would such worldly goods be sold here?

So when I asked with a curious mind, the man replied as if it was nothing special.

“I guess it depends on what kind of thing it is. I’ll judge you, so take it out and see.”

After thinking for a moment about taking it out, I took out one of the most common objects in the modern world: the smartphone.

“The size and shape make it look like a mobile phone.”

“Yes. How is it?”

“It is antique. Still, if it works properly, I can get 3-4 thousand credits from the collector.”

The money here seems to be ‘credit’.

“How much is that much money worth?”

“If it’s 3-4 thousand… you can buy a low-level artificial intelligence second-hand.”

A.I?

Seeing that the word ‘lower’ was added in front of it, it seemed that there were also intermediate and advanced levels.

“You look like you don’t understand. Before the world came to this point, a decent meal was about 30 to 40 credits.”

I thought it would be similar to the shabu-shabu I made, so I guessed the approximate price accordingly.

‘Can you say that 1 credit is originally about 1,000 won in world money?’

Then the smartphone I took out was said to be 3 to 4 million in Hanwha.

Considering the original price of a smartphone, it is more expensive here.

‘But I won’t be able to sell them in bulk.’

Unfortunately, since it was an antique, it was clear that the price would go down if it was poured out in piles like factory items.

‘ah.’

Then I asked the man, remembering the fact that water is precious and the image of Ren taking the bottled water I gave him.

“How about selling water?”

“water?”

“Yes. So······.”

I told the man that I could make water with my ability and how about selling it.

The man didn’t look particularly surprised when I said I was making water.

“It’s possible, but no one here can pay you right.”

“Anywhere else?”

“If the price is right, it will sell like hot cakes. But just know that if you make money that way, you will inevitably stand out.”

Looking closely, it seemed that I was opposed to making and selling water.

Certainly, as the man said, there was no choice but to stand out…

“Isn’t making money a standout in itself?”

“Isn’t it different from selling antiques? I bet the guys from District 1 will come and squeeze you like dried fish.”

The man was extremely against it, but in fact, it didn’t matter if I put my mind to it.

No matter how much the world of the future can oppress me?

It will be difficult unless something beyond my imagination comes out.

‘yes?’

While we were talking for a long time, I could see Ren dozing on one side with his head hanging down.

I ate a full meal, so it seems that I am slowly falling asleep.

‘Come to think of it, I need to find a place to stay.’

where should i stay

Even though there was an ‘island’ I worked hard on in the previous world, I had no intention of bringing it to Ren.

It’s okay to tear down and fix an abandoned building and use it…

“Looks like the little one is sleepy. How did you meet that little boy?”

“I was walking down the street when I suddenly fell over.”

“Ah, that was it.”

When he said that Ren had collapsed, the man nodded with a wry smile as if he had figured out what had happened.

“If so, how do you plan to live in the future?”

“well. There are many abandoned buildings nearby, so we should choose one and live there.”

“Stop that and stay in my building.”

“In this building?”

As I asked, I naturally looked around, and I saw various mechanical parts piled up here and there like a heap of garbage.

“This first floor is my studio. Stay on the 3rd floor if you like. The second floor is my room.”

Hearing the man’s words, I remembered that this building was a 7-story building.

Besides, seeing that the third floor was being given away right away, I wondered if the rest of the fourth to seventh floors would be empty.

“Looking at this, it’s one of the few buildings in District 4 that can use electricity, so it shouldn’t be a bad story for you either.”

“Ah, there’s definitely electricity here.”

“Because we make it ourselves. If I make the electricity and you make the water, can’t we help each other?”

I also have a generator, so it didn’t matter if I declined the man’s offer.

However, I nodded my head thinking that it would be best to be together as much as possible since I needed help with various things such as the biometric ID and connector.

“That’s good. I wish you well in the future.”

“I beg you too. Oh, my name is Hayden.”

“I’m Lee Seong-min.”

“Well? It’s a strange name because it came from another dimension.”

The man… no, Hayden soon shrugged it off and gave a very satisfied smile.

“Anyway, I feel good because my wish seems to have come true thanks to you.”

“A wish?”

When asked about the word wish, Hayden nodded.

“My wish was to eat only delicious food for three meals a day for the rest of my life.”

“…”

With those words, I could understand a little why I had to serve delicious food in order to make a deal.
