The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

【Name: Core Repository】

[Type: Special Item]

【Effect: Can only be used after being bound to the Gathering Core】

After use, it expands into a large warehouse with a huge internal space. The specific capacity and sturdiness are related to the level and quality of the bound assembly core.

Once the core warehouse is in use, it cannot be moved or canceled, but it can be destroyed. If it is destroyed, the materials stored inside will be released.

The core repository has a certain degree of camouflage capability; its data will not be retrieved by ordinary information viewing functions, and its exterior paint and shape can be changed, but its volume remains the same.

Song Gua was holding a small box in his hand.

It dropped from a wild boss.

Don't be fooled by how small this thing is now; once it's in use, it'll become a huge machine.

This is a must-have for all major guilds; its internal capacity is much larger than it appears.

"Two core repositories were compromised this time. One is enough for us, and we'll keep the other as a backup."

Look around.

"Let's put the warehouse at headquarters. When we're not here, we'll have a warehouse manager stay here. If anything happens, I'll just bring everyone here to switch places."

Other people's warehouses are heavily guarded.

In the Song hexagram, you only need to leave one clone.

After careful selection, Song Gua decided to appoint Jiu Wan, who had just made a contribution, as the warehouse manager.

"I've decided on you, Jiwan!"

Jiuwan's lips twitched.

"So, not only am I at the bottom of the combat power rankings, but I also skipped fifty years of detours and became a security guard in one step...?"

Song Gua patted him on the shoulder.

"Isn't this great? Such an easy job. There's no enemy we can't handle. You don't even have to lift a finger. You're our trump card and our darling!"

The main reason is that I felt it was inappropriate to tell you not to come out again; that would be too boring.

At least a warehouse keeper can move around freely within the warehouse.

"What's the difference between this and going to jail? I'd rather have it all over me and run around everywhere!"

Song Gua took out a security guard uniform and a stun gun for him.

"From now on, you'll pretend to be someone with a casual job. Remember to wear a mask and don't wear a bandit mask. If some bored passerby spots you, just say you're a security guard watching over the warehouse."

As he spoke, Song Gua used the core warehouse.

The small metal box gradually expanded and grew larger on the ground.

They didn't stop until they had filled half of the abandoned warehouse.

"It's so big, and the area it's vulnerable to is also large. If it gets surrounded and attacked, its durability will definitely be destroyed in no time."

"We still need to set up some barrier formations for protection."

"Hmm, that makes sense. Security guard, be more alert. If anything happens, have that old thief bring us here immediately!"

"We'll need two security guards. Even at 90,000 each, they can't stay awake 24/7, can they?"

Jiuwan, carrying his tools, walked to the side, cursing and swearing.

Having more people is great; they even thought of some details that Song Gua hadn't considered carefully.

Thus, the second security guard was born.

The clone wearing the Nine-Tube Blind and holding a second set of security guard uniforms squatted down next to Jiuwan.

"Brother Jiuwan, take it easy. From now on, neither of us needs to level up, fight monsters, or cause trouble. We can just eat, drink, and have fun in this paradise. Isn't that great?"

"Damn! I'm the man who's killed a world boss! How can a sparrow know the ambitions of a swan!"

"You're only at level six, not even as good as me. What 'swan'? Just stay a security guard."

The core repository and the first core have been bound together.

The gathering core doesn't need to be stored in the warehouse; it can be kept in your backpack and carried around.

After this round of upgrades, the bonus effects of the No. 1 assembly core have been greatly improved.

[Assembling the Core]

[Current Level: Lv10 (Reached the maximum level for the current quality; quality needs to be improved to continue leveling up)]

[Upgrade method: See Chapter 62]

Current Quality: Average

[Quality improvement requirements: see Chapter 62]

Current effect:

[Gatherers:]

First Mate (5/5): ? , ? , ? , ? , ?

Councilor (10/10): ?, ? ...

Elite (100/100): ?, ? ...

Members (200/200): ?, ? ...

"You guys actually got this thing to level 10! Just throwing white and blue quality items probably wouldn't be enough!"

Huo Zi put his hands on his hips and said proudly.

"So I cleverly threw away half of the high-quality supplies."

Song Gua gave him a blow.

"Damn it! What kind of family do you come from?!"

Huozi was punished to guard the warehouse for three days, and he squatted down next to Jiuwan and Jiutong.

"Look at our boss, how fair his rewards and punishments are! Do you have any more security uniforms? Could I have a set?"

All the core upgrade crystals dropped by the three field bosses and one world boss have been used up.

Song Gua strongly suspects that Huo Zi Ge and his team stopped investing resources in the upgrade because they no longer have this key upgrade item.

Otherwise, even flawless materials might be poisoned.

This is like buying a hydraulic press and then having nothing left in the house except the hydraulic press.

Currently, the core has reached the maximum level of normal quality. To upgrade it, it must be upgraded to higher quality.

Upgrading from ordinary to excellent requires 1 Gathering Core and 10 Core Advancement Crystals, which is not a problem. This time, the harvest is enough.

However, we still need to acquire other auxiliary materials.

Now that the siege is over and all the major guilds are back on track, it's probably not going to be easy to get free items.

We need to find a way to make money.

"Where's Da Congming?"

"Old thief, what are your orders?"

"The molding you mentioned last time..."

"The 38D one?"

"That was the time before last. I was talking about making a mold for the Dark Balance. Is that mold-making master still around?"

"It's definitely there."

"But we can't expose the Dark Balance. Could we ask him to give us the tools and materials so we can do it ourselves?"

"As long as the money is right, he'd give you his ass without a problem."

"Alright, I'll leave it to you."

That commission was worth at least eight million.

We have to try and see if we can fool them.

This time, something related to the Gathering Core was also dropped from the World Boss.

"Core Enchantment Crystal: This can randomly enchant a core crystal with a bonus effect. Use it."

Song Gua summoned an enchanted character from his logistics clone.

"Enchanting has a chance of failure, I can't guarantee it..."

"If you fail, you'll be stuck here watching the warehouse."

Upon hearing this, Jiuwan and Jiutong's eyes lit up, and they felt a sense of anticipation.

The pressure on the clones of the enchantment sequence is immense.

Fortunately, Lady Luck smiled upon them.

There was no failure.

In fact, the core enchantment crystal is a special enchantment item with a low failure rate. Therefore, Song Gua's enchantment sequence clones can succeed on the first try, even if the level is not high.

[Enchantment successful, gathering core enchantment affixes +1, 0 remaining!]

[Enchantment Effect: Increases the level of your class's innate skills by 1!]

"ohohohohohohohoh!!!"

Upon seeing this effect, all the clones gaped open, almost bursting with excitement and streaking naked.
