Legend of Legends Chapter 411 – Struggle 2

Jeffrey went to the United States, and they ran the teleportation experiment. Junhyuk found out that there were no limitations to teleportations on Earth. By using all five item pairs, his ability to move would be outstanding.

He told Eunseo about the development and asked her to come up with a new route. By having people take the items before him and teleporting to those locations, they could come up with the best route, one that would impact the most people.

Considering the economic loss that would take place when the borders disappeared, the cost of moving with mana stones was actually cheap.

The Americans gave him an SR-71, and the Core Bombs were ready within three days. Jeffrey and four other experts were part of the operation. Junhyuk gave them the teleportation devices and had them relocated.

Use of the Core Bomb required him to accelerate. Only Junhyuk could cover the distance without oxygen. If he didn’t reach the tear fast enough, more monsters could appear. It was really only possible for him to do it.

Just in case, however, he had an oxygen tank inside his Spatial Bag.

Junhyuk was above the Eiffel Tower. A shadow-like humanoid monster was staring at him while wielding two massive daggers. Junhyuk was flying on the drone, and the humanoid monster smirked at him.

The monster climbed the Eiffel Tower, and Junhyuk grimaced. The A-ranked monsters were getting more difficult to deal with, and he had never seen that monster before, which meant management had created it specifically for this. He had to be careful.

Junhyuk jumped from the drone. As he closed in, he used his Spatial Slash. A single A-ranked monster couldn’t stop him. When Junhyuk used the Spatial Slash, the monster’s body became translucent. It was like he was watching the monster use perfect evasion.

He grimaced at the sight, but he kept getting closer. When the monster became tangible again, Junhyuk didn’t hesitate. He used his Spatial Collapse. The translucent-body technique was a power, so the monster couldn’t use it again right away.

The Spatial Collapse sucked the monsters into it. Since it could not evade the attack, the monster twisted itself in other to prevent the collapse from triggering on his heart, which would cause it to be sucked out of its body. Instead, the monster lost its left arm and was pulled to the center of the collapse.

Junhyuk slashed the monster’s neck. The monster had dodged the Spatial Collapse’s critical hit, but it was still sucked into it, so it wasn’t well positioned to receive an attack. It couldn’t dodge Junhyuk’s sword.

The monster had felt the collapse trigger and managed to dodge the worst of it. It had been created to fight Junhyuk. Later on, there were sure to be monsters he wouldn’t be able to fight against.

After Junhyuk killed the monster, he put its body in his Spatial Bag and called the drone.

“Start bombing.”

It was baptism by fire. The center of the monster area was swept by the explosion. Junhyuk got through the border with plenty of time.

The Core Bomb cleaned the inside of the tear. He entered it and took the core. A core meant ten Core Bombs. He would send every core to Elise.

They would make more than enough Core Bombs for the monster areas, but they had no other plans besides making those bombs. So, he would use surplus cores for his dimensional training.

Junhyuk took the core and the broken tower and exited the tear. This time, the dimensional manager did not show up. The manager probably thought Junhyuk was struggling uselessly, so he did not care what Junhyuk did.

There was no monster wave, which meant the managers were probably busy with erasing the borders. They were setting a type of a timed attack. When Junhyuk walked out, he put the oxygen mask on. Suddenly, the dimensional tear disappeared.

The border was also gone, and the outside air was sucked into the area, creating a heavy gust of wind. Junhyuk simply stood there, at the center of it all, feeling the wind buffeting him until it stopped moving.

When he turned around, he saw Agenchra. The manager bowed to him and said, “You made a big mess of things.”

Junhyuk stared at Agenchra and replied, “I know your plans now.”

The managers had set a trap and attacked him. Many powered people had died, and if things continued that way, destroying monster areas would be a thing of the past. To destroy the tears, humans had made the Core Bomb. However, the managers felt threatened by that.

Junhyuk swung his sword, pointing it at the manager, and Agenchra stared at it and smiled.

“To be honest, the plan was moving slowly. But then, you came up with the bombs.”

“The kill-a-million-people-per-hero plan? That plan?!”

Agenchra nodded slowly.

“In other dimensions, there were planets that were completely decimated because they failed this test.” Agenchra’s blue eyes stared at him, and the manager said, “And you can’t do anything about it.”

“Why? The plan comes up from the top, so I can’t stop it?”

“The monster areas aren’t everything.”

“I know. There are monster waves.”

Agenchra shook his head.

“The plan has stages, but with the Core Bomb, you’ve made us jump many of them.”

Junhyuk stared at Agenchra. The manager had been good to him, so why was Agenchra there now? To point out his mistakes?

That wasn’t it.

Junhyuk asked, “What do you want me to do?”

“How about nothing?”

“What?”

“If you continue this, you won’t be able to handle it.”

“What do you mean?”

“One million could turn into two million.”

Junhyuk scowled. Agenchra was saying that the managers could do worse. Gathering his breath, Junhyuk asked, “You won’t stop until there are five heroes?”

“Correct.”

“So, once we get five heroes, you’ll stop all this?”

Agenchra nodded.

“Take the champions with you. You won’t be able to do anything unless more champions become heroes.”

Junhyuk stared at Agenchra and asked, “Is that advice?”

“That is the best way to stop our plans.”

Frowning, Junhyuk said, “Then, give me information on the champions.”

Agenchra took a moment to think before tearing a page from his pocketbook and giving it to Junhyuk.

“This contains everything about the champions and their current locations. If a champion moves around, the page will update itself. You should be able to find them now.”

“Thanks.”

“If more people become champions, they’ll appear on the page as well.”

It had been hard to locate champions with just their names, but now he had their locations. On top of that, new champions would also appear on the page.

Junhyuk took the piece of paper. He was able to read it because he had taken the language pill.

Agenchra bowed to him and said, “Not all managers are the same. I’ll support you.”

Agenchra disappeared, and Junhyuk stared at the place the manager once stood. Managers could open dimensional portals, which meant that they probably either carried dimensional equipment or they could use dimensional powers.

The flying drone lowered itself to him, and Junhyuk returned to the base. All the while, he stared at the piece of paper. It contained names and locations of champions, but it also had information on where those champions resided.

While Junhyuk thought of something else, Brigadier Johnson walked toward him.

“Thank you.”

“I have something to tell the monster support team.”

“Please, go on.”

“I’ll head to the next target now. In the meantime, find these people.”

Junhyuk read the names and locations out loud. Johnson wrote them down and asked, “Who are they?”

“The existing champions. Bring them to me.”

“You know their locations?!”

Junhyuk nodded and asked, “Is Lucy here?”

“She’s at our lab.”

“Call her here for me and bring me Ling Ling as well.”

When Lucy and Ling Ling came in, he showed Lucy the page.

“Take this. It has the names and locations of existing champions.”

“Where did you get this?”

“I got very lucky.”

Then, he turned to Ling Ling and said, “Ling Ling, go out with the experts and bring the champions to me.”

“You want me to arrest these champions?”

“No. Bring them only if they cooperate.” He turned to Ling Ling and Lucy and added, “We have to get them to become heroes, so we’ll fight together. Using Core Bombs to destroy the tears will be my responsibility. Once the borders are gone, I’ll move with the champions.”

The champions would die alone, but with him, they would be able to activate their powers while remaining safe.

Champions would only activate their powers when they were about to die, and preventing their death was his task.

“OK, but it’ll be a problem if they try to run.”

“Get them to cooperate first. If a champion resists coming to me, let them be. I’ll bring them myself later.”

Junhyuk knew that champions might fight among themselves, but they would not be able to fight him.

In their eyes, they should want to become heroes. Not every champion would become a hero, so he had to meet every champion there was. He would help them and put an end to the managers’ plans.

Until the next battlefield round, Junhyuk would be very busy.
