After 8 days of trekking back and forth of inputting blocks of scrap then leaving out once again to compact scrap from the mountains nearby then again rinse and repeat. This process after days of hardwork netted Rene a multitude variety of metals and exotics in different amounts, some are few while others in stacks of ingots after ingots. Most of them are common alloys and basic materials that can be compounded to create an even more resilient or flexible material than the originals and other similar compounded materials. The exotics? Not much of use since most are common exotics found in large amounts like <Onyx Steel> and <Furtak Ore> but suprisingly in a mound he then left marked for future compaction netted him <Epsilon Extract> a rare exotic found in small quantities that can used in many ways but more importantly in the creation of <Ultra-High Density Fuel> a luxury fuel used to power fleets upon fleets of ships for years without pollution. A gram of this compound can power 10 seperate Frigate-Class ships in 120% efficiency for 3 years without polution much less a Corvette-Class ship, this can tip the tables a bit for Rene since he has 47 grams of this material and even more out there in that trash mound.
"An absolute treasure in heaps of trash, a diamond in the rough! Oh what luck! Looks like Lady Luck hasn't left me out here to rot and with heaps of this material, I can create an interstellar warp drive leagues beyond that of even the most powerful drives in existence as I the Tech Magistrate of the XIN union can recreate one of his finest crafts, The <Ethera Selcion Drive> with one push of a button can fast travel to any known location instantly without danger and can even be used mid-combat." Rene bragged to himself even he was the only man here in this abandoned planet.
Rene then sought out to compact and acquire more of this exotic and with increased efficiency of midly overclocking his frame to achieve better efficiency with a slightly higher power consumption, he did this crazed work routine for hours without end until he decimately left the 12 meter talk trash mound to nothing in a period of only 3 days. This gave him almost 5 kilos of the stuff which delighted Rene so much he banged himself to a wall knocking himself out.
After recovering his consciousness back to its former glory and to reclaim his sanity bit by bit. He then patted himself in the back for good job and went to the slag pit to convert this 8 x 8 x 12 meter pit to a somewhat much useful substance than that of a death pit by using the <Conversion> function of his granted miracle <Materia Inventory> to reduce the slag to its simplest substance of <Metallic Compound> and giving him a hefty 8.5 tons worth of compound in the size of a 50x50x50 cm cube in the span of 17 blocks of substance in his subspace. This will give him a chance to convert this compounds to a much more specifc metal known to him at the variety of different required compounds with the <Recreation> function of the skill.
"Well that's nifty." Rene commented to the versatility of his skill in helping his situation of lacking enough materials in his craft.
This allowed him to convert excess materials he had into something he can convert into what he needed the most but most of the metals he needed needs other compounds as well which are <Organic Compound> which are scarce around the place, <Inorganic Compound> which can be found on everywhere, <Exotic Compound> which will hurt him slightly and finally <Ether Compound> which can be created by converting most magical items which the includes the materials dismantled from beasts.
After a contemplating decision and heartbreaks of loss he then gained 78 blocks of <Metal Compound> 37 blocks of <Inorganic Compound> 4 blocks of <Organic Compound> 987 blocks of <Exotic Compound> and 41 blocks of <Ether Compound>, the thing that surprised him was that a gram of <Epsilon Extract> gave him 900 blocks which means that it contains absurd amounts of energy compacted to that bit.
Days later of his traversty he finally met a situation he can call "danger", apparently the mound of scrap where he gained multitudes of <Epsilon Compound> was where he met his danger as he did not properly read the descriptions of the material.
<Epsilon Extract>
* Tier : T
* Grade : 10
* Description : An exotic containing absurd amounts of energy comparable to the output of Supergiants stars in a year compacted to such degree of impossibility.
* Description : Can be found in paltry amounts in the remains of ancient planets and ancient battlefields between beasts of calamity against the defense of an entire civilizations.
* Description : Finding large amounts in one place will only mean that there is a Calamity-Tier Beast living in the area, as it was found that this material are excrements of said beasts during their rehabilitation period.
"WELL SHIT..." Rene exclaimed while cold sweat drips down from his back.
