Legend of Legends

Chapter 588: Elise’s Masterpiece 1

Elise called for him, so Junhyuk went to see her. He had to give her another core. Junhyuk didn’t ask her what she needed it for, and Elise simply told him to expect her great things and left.

Junhyuk went to his training facility. There, he practiced his sword swing while thing about his duels with Artlan. Junhyuk acknowledged Artlan’s talent. With his sixth sense and his natural talent, getting an attack on Artlan wasn’t an easy thing. Artlan could dodge his Dimensional Slash, a skill that equaled perfect defense powers.

Junhyuk had to be able to hit Artlan when Artlan wasn’t using his sixth sense, or he had to attack so fast that Artlan wouldn’t be able to dodge it. To do that, he needed to find a way to stop time. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible.

He spent his time thinking about how to overcome Artlan’s sixth sense. Hard work wouldn’t overcome that amount of natural talent.

He spent a long time thinking before Elise contacted him and said, "The dimensional tears will trigger in an hour."

Junhyuk had lost track of time, but expecting that, Elise decided to warn him.

He teleported back to her lab and saw Elise and Gongon standing there. He smiled at Gongon and asked, "You haven’t gone back?"

"You have to take me back. I can’t do it alone."

Junhyuk patted Gongon’s head and said, "Right. If you are bored, you should help us."

"I’ll just watch?"

"Just watch?"

"I can’t close the tears anyway."

Junhyuk chuckled and stretched, saying, "I’ll run around and stop them."

"I heard you closed all the tears last time."

"That’s right."

"This time, things will be different."

Junhyuk became curious about Gongon’s remark, and the dragon turned to Elise, who said, "The battleship is finished. It’s called Elise."

"Can I see it?"

"That’s why I called you."

She smiled at him and showed him her tablet screen.

With a loud noise, the whole lab started shaking. Junhyuk went outside and saw the grounds outside the lab open and something rise from the opening.

It was huge. It was three hundred meters in length and it was covered in weapons.

"How many people can get on it?"

"Not many. It has its own AI, so there’s no need for manpower."

The ship was floating in midair, astonishing Junhyuk.

"I’ll help with the monsters."

"I didn’t use the decomposition compound, but the lasers use core energy to fire."

"Good thinking."

"It has one more secret weapon."

"A secret weapon?"

"It can teleport."

Junhyuk’s eyes widened, and Gongon smirked.

"You can input coordinates. The teleportations require a huge amount of energy, which was why we needed the core."

"Does that mean it can shift through dimensions?"

"Not that," Gongon said. "But don’t worry too much. You can carry it over through your Dimensional Shift."

"I can take it with me?"

"Would that be too difficult?"

"It’s three hundred meters long!"

Gongon shrugged and said, "Then, you’ll need to buy a large Spatial Bag."

"How large?"

"One with a radius of at least fifty meters."

"The cost of that would be astronomical!"

"Yeah? I can build you a private lair if you do."

Junhyuk was enticed by the prospect. With a new Spatial bag, he would be able to take his private lair to other dimensions.

He nodded and said, "I’ll think about it. After we fight the legend’s team, I won’t need the gold, so I’ll get the Spatial Bag then."

"You do that." Gongon smiled and said, "Look at this battleship’s main cannon."

Junhyuk looked at it. There was a hole at the front of the battleship. It was a massive hole, and he thought it was part of the ship.

"That’s a cannon?!"

"That’s right. That’s why I built the battleship,"

"It can be used for taking down large monsters."

A beam from that cannon would deal tremendous damage. Most large monsters would be killed instantly.

Gogon smirked and gave Elise a little kick, saying, "You tell him."

"Can I?" Elise coughed and explained, "The main cannon’s name is Spatial Collapse Cannon."

"Spatial Collapse Cannon?!"

Elise nodded and said, "The core energy can create a dimensional tear. I had to get Vera’s help. She’s the one who knows the most about dimensional magic. We created the Spatial Collapse Cannon so that it can close dimensional tears."

"Is that possible?!"

"The cannon takes two cores to operate."

With two cores, it could certainly close dimensional tears.

"You built it?"

Elise smirked at him and said, "After the first Spatial Collapse shot, there’ll be a five-minute recharge time. It’ll be slower than you in closing tears."

"That’s fine. It cuts my work down by 20 percent."

Elise nodded and said, "I wanted to help." She hugged Gongon and added, "Without Gongon and Vera, this ship wouldn’t have been possible."

"Why am I just Gongon?"

"Should I call you Mr. Gongon?"

"No. That makes me sound old."

Sarang contacted him then, so Junhyuk went to see her. She grabbed her rifle and teleported back with him. When Gongon saw the rifle, his eyes widened, and he asked, "What did you make?"

"It’s a magical artifact. You only have to pull the trigger, so it’s most definitely not for public use."

"Are you going to use it?"

"No." Sarang smiled and added, "I’ll give it to Eunseo. I can cast spells of my own."

"That’s good thinking."

Junhyuk and Sarang went to see Eunseo, who was getting ready for the monster waves. There were a lot of monitors with different feeds surrounding her.

She looked at him and Sarang when they appeared, and Sarang handed her the rifle.

"Big sister, this is for you."

Eunseo took the rifle, and Sarang pulled out an orb and chanted a spell. A blue light tied Eunseo to the rifle, and a chain bounded them with runic language. Then, the blue light disappeared.

Eunseo found some strange engravings on her hand and looked at the rifle. The engravings were the same as those on the rifle.

Sarang handed Eunseo a book and said, "This is the manual for how to use it."

It was a thin booklet. Leafing through it, Eunseo asked, "I can use magic?"

"Yes. You won’t be able to use the rifle in the Dimensional Battlefield, but you should get it engraved there."

"I can really take this?"

"Of course!"

"Thank you."

The rifle did not need mana, and it would shoot off magic. It would come in handy when killing monsters. Eunseo wouldn’t be in danger anymore.

"You should have made a pistol. That would’ve been easier to carry."

"With the rifle, the magic will be stronger."

Junhyuk nodded with understanding.

"You’ve worked hard."

Sarang smiled and said, "I used the entire core, and I can’t make more without more cores."

It was a superior weapon, but mass production wasn’t possible. It was definitely a nice artifact.

Junhyuk caressed her head, and Sarang gave him a tight hug. Eunseo’s eyes turned cold, and Junhyuk pushed Sarang away, saying, "We’ll head out to deal with the monster waves."

"Sure."

Junhyuk and Sarang teleported back to Elise’s lab, and Sarang pouted, asking, "Did you have to push me away?"

Junhyuk patted her head and said, "Have you seen Elise’s ship?"

"Elise’s ship?"

Sarang hadn’t seen it yet, so Juhyuk teleported with her again. The three-hundred-meter battleship was floating above the ground.

When she saw it, Sarang gasped.

"Elise, you built this?"

Elise had built an entire battleship while Sarang had built a rifle, but Elise shook her head and said, "Gongon and Vera helped me."

"But you built it."

Sarang was stunned, and Junhyuk smiled and said, "You’ll see it in action soon."

Elise turned to Sarang and asked, "Can you cast teleportation spells?"

"I can with coordinates."

Elise handed Sarang a pair of goggles and said, "Wear these, and you’ll get your coordinates."

"Yeah? I can’t close tears though."

"But you’ll save novices and experts from dying."

Sarang nodded and put the goggles on.

At that moment, Elise said, "It’s time. The dimensional tears are starting to appear."

"How many?"

"Twelve hundred of them."

"We’ll move faster this time. Where is the largest one?"

"Sydney, Australia."

"I’ll go."

"Seoul has the second biggest tear, so Battleship Elise will stay here."

"Seoul?"

"Sarang, Eunseo and I can close it."

Junhyuk smiled and said, "Then, I’m off."

He teleported to the Sydney Harbor Bridge. The tear would appear soon, so he summoned his swords and looked up at the sky.

As soon as the tear appeared, Junhyuk used his Dimensional Slash against it. Instead of growing further, it closed.

"That’s one."

He teleported again.
