Chapter 447 - Weapon Crafting 2

Chapter 447: Weapon Crafting 2
Junhyuk laughed at what Elise said. She was a foreigner, so unlike Koreans, she always spoke her mind. He asked Elise more about Sarang, then,
What about Sarang’s work? How’s it turning out?


Hm… She’s working on it with Vera, but I don’t know much about it.


Yeah? I should ask her myself.

Elise smiled and said,
I’m satisfied with Moon Core, so I’ll start on my next project.


Sure.

Junhyuk was satisfied too. Walking out, he pulled out a core and cocked his head looking at it. An energy shot at 25-percent output could be fatal to a dragon, but dragons also had magic and mana of their own. Still, overall, Junhyuk felt that the core might be stronger.


Elise had told him that she could only release 25 percent of the energy for now. Maybe once Moon Core was upgraded, she might be able to release more.
After Junhyuk thought about the core, he connected to Sarang.

Where are you?

Sarang adjusted her messy hair and said,
I’m using one of Guardians’ labs to work on something.


Yeah?! I’ll be there soon.

Junhyuk teleported and walked the rest of the way to where she was. Sarang had taken over one of Elise’s labs. It was filled to the brim with lab equipment, and Junhyuk whistled when he saw the mess.

What are you trying to make exactly?

There were chemicals and gems all over the lab, including mana and bloodstones.
Junhyuk grabbed one of the gem and saw that there were runes written across it. Sarang walked up to him, smiled and said,
I’m learning about magitek and using gems as ingredients.


Is Vera teaching you?




Yes.

Junhyuk picked up a bloodstone and said,
Bebe is the best one at magitek.


But Bebe doesn’t use crafting recipes. Vera has created a lot of recipes with her own magitek.


Yeah?

Bebe had told him his magitek was the best in all dimensions, but Vera had also crafted things that couldn’t be overlooked. She had created the teleportation devices that they were using to save the world.
Vera could craft stuff that crossed dimensions, and she had already fought against legends. Her level of magitek wasn’t at all beneath Bebe’s.
By learning from Vera, Sarang would be able to craft useful items. Elise was developing new recipes to craft items, but if Vera already had advanced recipes of her own, Sarang could craft a new weapon with Vera’s help.

Are you practicing?


Magitek isn’t easy, but I’ve increased my success rate.

Sarang had the best intelligence runestones. If she got more of them, her success rate would rise even higher.



What can you make with the dragon’s heart?


I can make the orb I’m holding. After finishing it, my attack stat will definitely increase.


Yeah?

Junhyuk gave her a nod of encouragement. She could increase her attack by crafting a weapon with the dragon’s heart. Because Elise was developing new recipes, Junhyuk thought that it would be dangerous if she were to try to use the dragon’s heart. Sarang, on the other hand, was crafting with advanced recipes developed by Vera. Her success rate should be much higher. Besides, as a hero, an increase in Sarang’s powers meant that the team would get stronger.
Junhyuk patted her shoulder and said,
I won’t have you train the champions and experts. Just focus on your work for now.

Sarang could only cast heal on the powered people—her other powers were too dangerous for them—so, he didn’t really need her to help them train. There were many novices with healing powers now, though none so powerful as hers.
With those novices there, training wouldn’t be affected.

Yeah? If I’m lucky, I’ll be able to use the new weapon in the next round.

Junhyuk smiled at her and said,
Sure! Do your best!

Then, he left her so that she could work on her project. Elise had made her weapon, so she would be able to contribute more on the battlefield. If Sarang finished her project, their team would become much stronger than before. The next battle would be fun.


Junhyuk liked the fact that the women were working hard, but he wanted to increase his own power. At least on Earth, he wanted to get everything he could out of Aksha’s Longsword. He hadn’t really mastered Aksha’s Longsword, and Aksha’s swordsmanship hadn’t been judged as a power in the Dimensional Battlefield yet, but even at the level he was now, he could use it to deal with minions and heroes.

I can’t lag behind.

—
One can never predict an enemy’s attack. There was a sudden attack, but dragons weren’t involved.
Thirty-two dimensional tears appeared around the world and flocks of wyverns rushed out of each tear.
To combat the flocks, the countries had deployed fighter jets. They had thought that using missiles covered in decomposition liquid would do the job, but they had been wrong. The decomposition liquid didn’t work against the wyverns, so many jets crashed, destroyed.
First, Junhyuk went to Sydney, Australia. There were five times as many wyverns there than anywhere else.
He looked at the massive flock far away. The Sydney Opera House had already been destroy, and the Sydney Harbour Bridge was also gone.
People were in a frenzy while being evacuated. Junhyuk was on a drone, an improved version of the old one. It was much faster now. He stared at the wyverns while he flew.
A single champion would have a hard time killing wyverns by themselves, so he had the champions team up and move together. Junhyuk had only Sarang next to him, but the two of them would take the bulk of the work against the wyverns.


Initially, Junhyuk wanted to leave Sarang back, but the situation was too awful for that.
When he attacked, he realized that the wyverns’ hide was much stronger than before. Previously, their hide had been soft, but now, not everything was cutting through it. It made no different to Aksha’s Longsword, but it mean that the decomposition liquid wouldn’t get through it.

You monsters weren’t wasting time.

He looked at Sarang. Her spells were more involved than shooting electric arrows now. On Earth, she used chain lightning as her main attack, and the web of electricity roasted the wyverns much faster than he could.
Chain lightning was pure magic, and the wyverns had no defense against it. Sarang was using mana stones to cast the spell, but now wasn’t the time to save them. The spells she used with mana stones were extremely effective in killing wyverns.
Once all the wyverns in Sydney had died, Junhyuk joined the other group and moved out with only the champions. Taking novices and experts with him was still dangerous.
Junhyuk moved with his group again, and they all teleported to Austin, Texas. Getting there, he bit his lips. The wyverns had been deployed in large scale, and many people around the world were dying.
Some people had activated powers, sure, but many more were dying. There was no abnormal narcolepsy. They were simply getting massacred.
The managers were killing people by the bushel, and nobody held them accountable. Right now, he could only do his best in killing the wyverns as fast as possible.
Flying over Austin, he sighed at the sight of the countless wyverns. That was all he could do in reaction to it.

These aren’t dragons, so I can block their attacks.


Group them up.

To kill them effectively, it was important to bunch them up. That way, the heroes could deal with all of them quickly. The champions helped get the wyverns grouped up, and a spell zoomed by him toward the monsters. It was a wide-range lightning trap that kept the wyverns enclosed in one place. Then, chain lightning shocked through them.
Craaack, craack!
Regardless of the number of wyverns, once they were trapped in the lightning enclosure and Sarang cast chain lightning, the wyverns dropped to the ground, charred.
Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash and shockwaves on the wyverns that had escaped the trap, and that way, they all died.

Let’s move out!
he shouted.
There were thirty-two tears around the world, so Junhyuk had to manage their time well. There were nine places he had to clear out first.
He moved according to plan, massacring the wyverns as he went. Once they were grouped up, they were easier to kill.
While luring the wyverns to one spot, Junhyuk faced many dangers, but he and the other powered people were fine in the end. Nobody died hunting wyverns.
Using the teleportation devices, he had been able to move quickly through places, but there had been some that hadn’t had a device nearby, which had slowed him down. Once he cleared a place with a teleportation device, the people in charge moved that device to another location. In the end, the powered people took two days to kill all of the wyverns that had appeared on Earth.
It was dawn on Friday. The Sun was just about to rise, and the powered people had just killed the last group of wyverns.
Junhyuk exhaled deeply and said,
You’ve all worked hard.

Things hadn’t been easy, but in the end, they had stopped the attack. However, the number of casualties was high. They hadn’t been able to keep the wyverns from destroying many major cities.
Standing in Guangzhou, on the Chinese coast, he said,
Gather up. Let’s go back to South Korea.

The powered people followed his orders, and Junhyuk activated the teleportation device, teleporting everyone to where Elise was. Things had been dire, but Junhyuk had not taken Elise with him. He had to keep her safe at all cost for the sake of all of humanity.
Elise was in the middle of researching the wyverns. The new wyverns had thicker hides, which had disabled the monster decomposition liquid. She had to come up with a new way to kill monsters.
Elise, who was covered in wyvern fluid, said,
Welcome!

Junhyuk shook his head and said,
You don’t rest.


I don’t have the time to.

Unless Junhyuk was on a plane, he also didn’t rest. Putting on a useless smile, since he was wearing a helmet, he waved at her and said,
You do your thing. I’m going to discuss the events with the others.

Elise put her goggles back on and continued her dissection of the wyvern.
