Legend of Legends

Chapter 440: Group Battle 3

Junhyuk entered Bebe’s store with Layla. Inside, he saw Bebe glancing through a book. The yeti waved at them both.

“Welcome!”

Junhyuk nodded and told Bebe why he was there that day, “Do you have scrolls that can contain and activate powers?”

“Contain powers? Heroes’ powers?”

“Yes. Not just heroes, but powers from other tiers of powered people as well. Do you have scrolls like that?”

“If something like that existed, the balance of the Dimensional Battlefield would disappear!”

“I don’t need it for the Dimensional Battlefield.”

“You mean you want to use it in your dimension?”

“Yes.”

Bebe became curious and asked, “Do you need a stock of powers in your dimension?”

Junhyuk nodded and said, “Last time I was there, a dragon appeared. If I’m able to buy scrolls like that, it’ll be much easier to fight them.”

“Hm...” Bebe said grabbing his chin. “There are scrolls like that. They do exist, but they can’t make others place their powers within it unwillingly. I have ten of them in stock.”

If Junhyuk could get ten powers in scrolls so that he could use them, that would help him tremendously.

“How much is it?”

“Each one is 2,000G. It’s cheap.”

Ten scrolls would cost him 20,000G. He would be able to use them to kill more dragons.

“Give me all of them.”

Junhyuk extended his hand, paid the 20,000G and took the scrolls. They had strange shapes drawn on them.

“How do they work?”

“It’s simple. You put your hand on the drawing, and the powered person uses his or her power. To place a power into the scroll, you’ll need a mana stone about this size.”

Bebe made a fist. His fist was rather large, but Junhyuk already had mana stones that size stashed away. After he paid the 20,000G, he pulled out all the items he wanted to sell one by one. He had picked up a total of eleven items from his enemies.

He placed them all on the counter, and Bebe laughed.

“Ha-ha-ha-ha! Did you kill them all by yourself?”

“I was lucky, and usually, they were grouped up.”

Junhyuk had ravaged through his enemies twice, so he had acquired a lot of items.

“How much?” he asked.

“Their prices range from 40,000 to 50,000G. I’ll give you 480,000G for all eleven items.”

Between the previous round and that round, Junhyuk had earned about 500,000G. Soon, he would be able to get his hands on the items he really wanted.

He took the gold from Bebe and checked his savings: 716,898G. It was a lot, but Junhyuk wanted more cores.

“Refurbish a core for me, please.”

“That’s 200,000G.”

Junhyuk got the core refurbished. It was a lot of money, but the core was worth the price. He would give a non-refurbished core to Gongon the next time he saw the dragon. He was supposed to have done that already, but he had forgotten about it.

Holding the cores, he asked, “Do you have any Pure Golden Knight set items?”

“No.”

He smacked his lips and replied, “OK.”

Layla purchased an item from Bebe. She spent 200,000G on it, and Junhyuk agreed with her purchase.

Layla did not wait like Junhyuk. She bought items whenever she had enough gold for them, but Junhyuk couldn’t afford to do that at the moment.

Junhyuk had survived so far by all means, but there was no guarantee that he would be able to survive in the future. If he died in the battlefield, he would cry bloody tears for dropping his items.

He hoped he wouldn’t die. If he kept buying legendary items and getting stronger, he wouldn’t die. That was what he thought.

Then, Junhyuk searched through his Spatial bag and pulled out the reason for him having entered Bebe’s store: the Red Dragon Armor.

He gave it to Bebe, who looked dumbstruck.

“Did you kill a dragon? From the blood and the scales, it had to have been a warm-blooded dragon.”

“You can tell?”

“Dragon bodies are the best ingredients for crafting. Dragons tend to craft the best equipment as well, but they can only make a limited quantity of it.”

“Why limited?”

“Dragons use their own bones to craft items. Their magic is superb, but they can’t craft equipment unless another dragon dies.”

“So, their bodies make great items?”

“Correct.” Bebe held up a finger and smiled, saying, “It’s a type of self-preservation.” The yeti continued, “That magitek book I sold you teaches you the best magitek theories in all dimensions. There are only a few recipes, but the items made with knowledge from that book are superior to all other comparable magitek items.”

Junhyuk had paid 300,000G for the book, but it had ended up being the best he could buy even though it had only come with basic recipes.

He asked calmly, “How much will you give me for it?”

Bebe inspected the armor again and said, “If you can make it even better, you’ll earn a lot more money. You have access to the best magitek theories, and this item was crafted with a unique recipe.” Staring hard at him, Bebe asked, “That child, Elise, she made this, right?”

“Yes.”

“Tell her to make more items with those resources. She might even make a set with buffs and all.” Stroking his chin, Bebe said, “She might even make a high quality set. She has the best ingredients and the best knowledge. Elise might be able to make miracles.”

“So, how much?”

“How about 350,000G?”

Junhyuk was paid more than he had expected, way more.

Eltor was the one sending dragons, and after selling the Red Dragon Armor, Junhyuk even thought about asking Eltor to send more. But, dragons were dangerous to the general population.

He took his 350,000G and connected with the rest of his team, all of it.

“Where are you all?”

Gongon answered curtly, “I’m heading to the buff tower. Be there soon.”

Junhyuk turned to Rodrey and Sarang. They were in the same place.

“You haven’t left yet?”

“I’m about to head out. How many minions should I bring?”

Junhyuk thought he already had enough minions, so after pondering the question, he said, “Leave them behind and move as fast as you can. We’ve already destroyed the second watchtower.”

The enemies had been pushed back, so all the allies needed to do was push through the open middle path. The allies were winning.

Junhyuk turned to Layla and said, “Let’s head to where the second watchtower was.”

“Sure.”

They started getting ready to move out with their remaining minions. There were a lot of minions, and it would be possible for things to be settled just with them.

The enemies had been badly beaten, and Junhyuk didn’t think they were so bold as to come out to battle again. They had great powers, but they lacked powerful items.

Junhyuk and Sarang had amazing damage, and they had managed to kill all of their enemies even before a team battle. That was the reason the allies were winning now. Their enemies had already lost too many items.

The enemy heroes were getting weaker as the fight progressed. Next time, things would be even easier than this time, and Junhyuk really liked that.

Suddenly, he thought of something, turned to Bebe and asked, “Enemies that get killed a lot fall to a lower tier. How many times do we have to wipe an enemy team to lower their tier?”

After some thought, Bebe replied, “I’m not sure. That’s something usually decided by the managers.”

“Really?” Junhyuk was surprised to know that Bebe didn’t know everything, and he replied, “I understand. I’ll come back later.”

“Sure.”

“Can we sell more Red Dragon Armor, or is there a limit?”

“Elise made it, so I’ll buy as many as she can make.”

“Would you pay more for an entire equipment set?”

“Sets go for premium prices.”

Junhyuk smiled at the yeti. He thought that Elise would definitely be able to craft a set.

He left the store with the minions and headed for the middle path. Gongon would occupy the buff tower at any moment, giving the allies greater movement speed.

With that speed, they could push through the middle, and their enemies would have to decide on whether to fight or not. Things would be decided by that final advance.

While they were heading for the middle path, Junhyu, Layla and the minions received the buff. Gongon contacted them to say that he hadn’t come across any enemies yet, which also meant that nobody knew where the enemy heroes were.

With the allies gathered in the middle, the enemy heroes might take the opportunity to push through the other paths. However, because the allies were buffed, some of them had already made through the middle path, meaning that even if their enemies pushed through the sides, they would win.

Junhyuk joined Gongon on the way. Then, looking back, he saw Sarang and Rodrey coming up their path.

“Wait here and rest for a while,” he told them.

“Sure.”

Gongon crashed next to him. Junhyuk didn’t tell the hatchling about making a dragon set. Gongon was a dragon, so he wouldn’t be interested in such a morbid matter.

Junhyuk pulled out two non-refurbished cores from his Spatial Bag and gave them to Gongon. The hatchling smiled.

“There are dragons researching ways to use these cores as we speak. I, myself, expect great news.”

“Did you look into the dragon hunting?”

Gongon sighed and answered, “Our tribe is OK for now. My dimension has produced many heroes, so the managers aren’t hunting from us. Other dimensions with dragons are different, but I can’t contact dragons from those dimensions. The communication crystal will only let me contact combatants in the Dimensional Battlefield, so I have no means of getting in touch with dragons from dimensions without heroes yet.”

Junhyuk knew that Kalgroan hadn’t been a hero. He felt that it had to be a joke that a dragon that powerful hadn’t been a hero.

Still, the dragons should have come together to pressure the managers, but that hadn’t happened, and it wouldn’t happen now.
