Legend of Legends - Chapter 585

Chapter 585: Material Superiority 2

Junhyuk had to move around a lot. The monster waves were announced, and civilians were evacuated, but even in shelters, people weren’t safe.

The monsters burst right through those shelters.

The iron soldiers and the other powered were dealing with those situations.

While Junhyuk teleported from one tear to another, shutting them one by one, many people were dying to the chimeras.

The novices received the greatest number of casualties. Some of those who survived became experts.

Nevertheless, too many people died.

Elise and Junhyuk hadn’t finished their items by this wave. The number of casualties was high this time, but hopefully, once their items were finished, they would help make things easier.

That wouldn’t happen immediately, however, so the two behind to guard Guardians.

“Shit!”

There was nothing else he could do about the situation. It was a matter of time. Because he was alone, he couldn’t cover multiple locations.

Junhyuk had closed three hundred tears, but the places he hadn’t gotten too yet still had chimeras exiting the tears. They were coming out of the tears with no end in sight, and that’s when Junhyuk realized he had to close them all.

After closing three hundred, even with Harmonizer active, Junhyuk started getting tired.

He closed another tear and decided to continue until he had closed all twelve hundred.

It took his two minutes to close a tear. In an hour, he could close thirty tears, so he had been at it for ten hours already.

The enemy monsters weren’t strong from his perspective, but their numbers were absurd. The problem was the time, and there was nothing he could do to go faster.

“How many chimeras have come out?”

“We’ve killed five thousand chimeras so far, but we don’t have a number for how many are out or will be out.”

They hadn’t included the number of those he had killed. Junhyuk had already killed a few thousand, so there must’ve been around ten thousand out.

Soren was the new team leader and the one who had made this decision.

Junhyuk shook his head and continued slashing. It would take him another forty hours without rest to finish.

“I wish someone else had dimensional powers.”

Very few beings had dimensional powers, and that included the managers. Those powers couldn’t be found in other humans.

He had to work harder.

—

Even though Junhyuk possessed Harmonizer, closing 1,200 tears was hard for him. He worked on it for forty straight hours, and because of that, though he hadn’t rested, his fighting skills had improved.

Without Harmonizer, he wouldn’t have been able to do it. Junhyuk was exhausted.

“Any more tears?” he asked Elise.

“No.”

Junhyuk sighed and said, “I’ll ask Eunseo about the casualties.”

“Sure.”

Junhyuk teleported to Eunseo’s office, and she gave him a hesitant smile. He smiled back at her.

“You’ve worked hard.”

“I did what I had to do,” Junhyuk said with a shrug. “The manager knew about my powers. How many casualties?”

“There is $2 million in financial damage; 274 novices and 72 experts have died; 24 novices became experts; 1 expert became a champion.”

“We have a new champion?!”

“Yes.”

“That’s good.”

The manager wanted another hero. With just another hero, Junhyuk wouldn’t have to face Soren anymore.

The chance of becoming a hero was very low, but he was glad to have gotten another champion.

“I’ll be going.”

“Rest.”

After talking to Eunseo, he left and went to see Elise again.

“Did many die?” she asked.

“Yes. The number of civilian casualties was low, but many of ours died.”

Elise sighed and said, “When I complete my item, I’ll be able to deal with the monster waves more effectively.”

“What are you making?”

“A battleship. Gongon build one as his lair. Mine won’t be able to warp, but it’ll help.”

“A battleship?!” Junhyuk asked again. “What is Sarang making?”

“She’s crafting an artifact that’ll allow for warping.”

“I promised I’d invite Artlan once the monster waves were done.”

“Invite me too!”

“How long will you take?”

Elise scratched her cheek and said, “About another fifteen days.”

“We’ll have two more waves before that.”

“If I get help, I can be done sooner.”

“Who do you need?”

Elise smirked and replied, “Gongon.”

Junhyuk stared at her and asked, “You wanted to show it to Gongon, right?”

“I’ll need his help, but he can also help with the monster waves.”

“Sure.”

Elise was making something useful, something that would really help, so Junhyuk decide to contact Gongon.

“I’ll ask him.”

Junhyuk used his Dimensional Shift to move to Gongon’s lair. When he got to Gongon’s dimension, he contacted the dragon.

“Gon, I’m in your lair.”

“You are?!” Wait a minute!” When Gongon showed up, he smirked at Junhyuk and asked, “What’s going on?”

“I have a favor to ask of you.”

“A favor?”

“Elise is building a battleship, and she needs your help.”

Gongon’s eyes beamed.

“A battleship!? My lair must’ve inspired her!”

“That’s right. She’ll need fifteen days to finish construction. In the meantime, two more monster waves will hit Earth.”

Gongon nodded and said, “Because of the managers.”

“Right.”

“OK. I’ll go with you. I want to see your dimension.”

Junhyuk grabbed Gongon’s hand and used his Dimensional Shift. They crossed dimensions, and Gongon seemed to be having fun until he got to Elise’s lab. There, he scowled and asked, “What is this place?!”

“What? Why?”

“I can’t feel any mana around!” Gongon shouted and turned to Elise, who smiled at him and said, “My house has plenty of mana, but this is more important right now. Can you be patient?”

“Where is your battleship?”

“Follow me.”

Elise took the lead, but turned to Junhyuk suddenly and said, “You can see it yet.”

“Can I see it later?”

“Sure.”

He gave her a bitter smile and said, “OK. I have somewhere to be.”

Junhyuk teleported back to his training facility and contacted Artlan’s team.

ARtlan was drinking, and Vera had goggles on while she looked at something. Nudra was at the top of a mountain, and Halo was in total darkness. Diane was taking a bath in a moonlit lake.

They all smiled at him. It seemed like they bore no grudge about the final round.

“What is going on?” Artlan asked.

“I’ve stopped the monster waves.”

“That took a while.”

“There were too many of them. I had no time to spare.”

“The managers must have been prepared to deal with the winner of the tournament. Are you inviting us over?”

“Yes.”

“Then, do it.”

Junhyuk sent the invitations, and everyone showed up. They looked around as soon as they got there.

“You aren’t ready.”

Junhyuk smirked and extended his hand. They all stared at him.

“Let’s go eat some food,” he said.

“Where?”

“My dimension.”

Everyone’s eyes beamed. Vera seemed to be the most curious.

“We can’t exit this facility.”

“With my Dimensional Shift, you can.”

Everyone grabbed hold of him, and Junhyuk used his Dimensional Shift. Both the battlefield and the training facility were located in the space between dimensions.

Junhyuk could teleport in and out of the training facility. He knew the coordinates, and now, he could go anywhere he had been to before.

They all appeared in Eunseo’s office because Elise wasn’t at her lab.

Eunseo got up from her seat, and Junhyuk smiled at her.

“I’ve brought my friends.”

Eunseo bowed to Artlan, who averted his gaze from her. Staring at her, Nudra said, “You’ve been training. You need a real teacher now.”

“Will you teach me?”

“Maybe I have some time,” Nudra said with a pretend shrug, and Junhyuk laughed.

“I’ll show you Earth.”

Junhyuk could go anywhere on Earth, so he was about to show them everything he could.
