Chapter 359: Being Superior 2

Junhyuk had raised the force field, and five seconds had already gone by. In that situation, Ellencia was far more dangerous than Kamel. She was within the watchtower’s protection, so if she pulled him with her fire whip or used her charm to entice him, he would be killed by the archers.

Junhyuk used the Spatial Slash on Ellencia. Her attack range was twenty meters, so he couldn’t attack them both at the same time.

The Spatial Slash pierced Ellencia’s neck, and a red shockwave extended from the point of impact.

“Aaargh!”

Ellencia screamed very loudly and disappeared. Junhyuk had also not expected that, and Kamel stared blankly at the spot where Ellencia had stood.

Nobody had thought that Ellencia would die in a single hit. Junhyuk proceeded to stab Kamel’s chest as Kamel remained blank.

Kamel had regained his health, but Junhyuk didn’t hesitate. The stab was a critical hit, taking 32 percent off of the hero’s health. An extra attack triggered, so Kamel received another 16 percent of damage. In no time at all, he lost 48 percent of his health.

Scared, Kamel pushed Junhyuk away, trying to retreat. However, Junhyuk would finish the hero off now that he had the advantage, and there were still three seconds left to his force field.

Junhyuk accelerated toward Kamel, who started spinning his sword and circling around him, his bastard sword slamming hard against the force field.

Clang, clang, clang, clang!

Kamel was using his ultimate. Junhyuk had underestimated Kamel way too much. The hero’s items were crap, but he knew how to fight.

Kamel’s ultimate kept Junhyuk from finding an opening, and he had already used his Spatial Slash. Kamel distanced himself from him, and Junhyuk thought he might only have one opportunity left to attack.

He wanted to use it on a group of enemies, but he would get other chances to do it. Without worrying too much, Junhyuk created an empty circle on Kamel’s chest. Spatial Collapse.

Craack!

Kamel stopped moving and started shaking. With Kamel’s chest as the center, everything ten meters from it got sucked toward it.

“Ahhhhh!”

Kamel screamed miserably and disappeared. Junhyuk had used the Spatial Collapse on Kamel’s chest, and it was a critical hit. The hero lost all 52 percent of his health, and Junhyuk thought that that was very cool.

Junhyuk picked up a gauntlet dropped by Kamel and teleported to the spot where Ellencia died. She had dropped a bracelet, which he also picked up.

“We retreat for now, but slowly!” he shouted.

The allied minions had advanced to lure out the lobsters. Five of them had died. As he shouted, they began their retreat.

Once the minions were outside the archers’ range, he ran toward the lobsters. The lobsters fought ferociously, but Junhyuk was only hit twice.

After he had killed all the lobsters, he turned around and said, “Form two groups. One group focuses on the archers, and the other destroys the watchtower.”

The minions were less scared of battle now. As they heard his orders, they started moving. He stared at them forming up and ordered, “Attack the tower!”

They did, and Junhyuk realized how important the minions were as he watched them. When the minions surrounded the tower, the watchtower’s force field disappeared.

Humans lacked battle skills when compared to other types of minions, but they carried shields. After seeing them in action, Junhyuk thought that they were the superior minions to attack structures.

“Is that what they should focus on?”

Half of the minions shielded the group as the other half attacked. They were the most effective minions. They weren’t just fodder like in the previous season. Other heroes would realize that too, and more minions would survive.

He ran forward and slashed the watchtower. At that moment, the archers that had been focusing on the minions changed their focus to him. That was another difference from before. The archers would focus on him instead of the minions.

“Minions shielding, attack the tower now!”

Those minions holding shields joined in on the attack. With the tower’s force field gone, Junhyuk looked at the quick wreckage that resulted from the minions’ attack and murmured, “Heroes can act as bait!”

About twenty minions had attacked the tower. With that number, five rounds of attacks could bring the tower down. The value of the minions was obvious. Junhyuk turned to the thirty-three surviving minions and said, “This place is safe now, so we’re moving left.”

It would take at least four hours for the enemies to reclaim the center path and the buff tower. If he did not want to lose the buff, Junhyuk would have to retake the buff tower in one hour, but he came to the conclusion that he didn’t need the buff.

If necessary, he could cross the forest and kill a buff monster.

For the moment, he inspected the items dropped by Kamel and Ellencia.

—

Steel Gauntlet

Defense +5

Health +50

A gauntlet made of steel. It’s comfortable, but it’s not very strong. It was made to help the wearer.

—

Junhyuk thought it was crap, and he turned to Ellencia’s bracelet.

—

Firestone Bracelet (Low Quality)

Fire Magic Attack +10

Made with a firestone, it increases fire magic by ten. It holds no other benefit, so be careful when using it.

—

Junhyuk stared at the bracelet. Bebe would only give him chump change for those items. Did he know anyone who used fire magic?

“Tsubasa.”

Junhyuk could only think of her. She used fire magic.

“Maybe I should give this to her.”

On Earth, an increase of ten to magic attack was huge. When dealing with monsters, it would help her big time.

After some thought, Junhyuk shook his head. Sure it could help Tsubasa, but 20,000G wasn’t really a small amount.

“Not yet.”

He decided to sell all of the items to buy Elise a Spatial Bag.

“I have to be frugal so that I can buy more of the Vampire Lord set items,” he murmured, moving into the forest.

Deep in the forest, he laughed loudly.

“This is very cute.”

There was a small sign on the road pointing to Bebe’s store, and because of that, Junhyuk decided to visit the merchant instead of killing a buff monster. He ran toward where the sign was pointing and found the dimensional portal.

His buff had already disappeared. He was a little worried, but he entered the portal anyway.

Inside, he saw Bebe digging into his ears. The yeti waved at Junhyuk when he saw him.

“My VVVIP is here!”

Junhyuk laughed at Bebe and walked toward the counter. Bebe had his arms crossed, and Junhyuk dropped the items he had acquired in front of him.

As Bebe inspected the items, he murmured, “Where did you get this junk?”

“From the enemy heroes.”

“Riiiight! You’re going through the selection process, so it’s only natural you brought me junk today.”

Bebe looked at the items and said, “I’ll give you 100,000G for all five of them.”

“Each of them is worth 40,000G?”

“Some are worth more than that, but this is all junk, and that’s all I can give you for now. I’m doing you a favor.

Junhyuk thought that was nice of him and said, “Since I am a VVVIP, did my discount rate go up?”

“Your rate is now 15 percent!”

Junhyuk smiled.

“Then, give me a Spatial Bag. The smallest one.”

Bebe pulled the Spatial Bag from the shelf. Junhyuk couldn’t actually inspect it, but now that he had a spatial sense, he could sense that it was defective. He looked at it, and Bebe laughed.

“It’s 85,000G. I’ll give you this and 15,000G for the items.”

Junhyuk nodded and put his hand forward. He took the Spatial Bag and the money and checked on how much he had saved: 528,760G.

Then, he focused on the actual purpose for his visit that day. He pulled out one of the Wolf Warlord’s claw swords.

“How much will you give me for this?”

Bebe inspected it and smacked his lips.

“This is a sword made out of a Wolf Warlord’s claw.”

Junhyuk nodded in agreement. His fixed income would depend on how Bebe priced the sword.

“It has no magic power, and it’s made out of a dead monster. I can’t give you much for it,” Bebe said calmly.

Shocked, Junhyuk interjected, “You said a twin-headed ogre’s umbilical cord cost 50,000G?!”

Bebe nodded.

“That’s correct. Monsters that drop items in the Dimensional Battlefield are special. It doesn’t happen every time.”

“… Riiight.”

“In that same manner, if you kill a monster in your dimension, and it drops an ingredient item, it may also be special. In those cases, I can give you a reasonable sum for it, especially if the items have nice stats.”

“Are you talking about magic?”

Bebe smiled.

“You heard me right. This type of indigenous manufacturing only yields cheap products. This is worse than my basic sword. However, because it was made with significant consideration, I’ll price it at 15,000G, but I’ll buy it from you for 8,000G.”

There was no reason for him to refuse. He could make ten claw swords with one Wolf Warlord, so each of them would yield him 80,000G. His eyes beamed thinking of the money he could make, and at that moment, Bebe said calmly, “I can’t buy unlimited quantities of this junk.”

“Why?”

“Hoping to find a buyer, I’ll store them to sell, but I can only store ten of them. Seeing how awful they are, I can’t carry more than ten.”

Junhyuk thought of the money he could have earned for each Wolf Warlord killed, 80,000G, but Bebe stomped on his dream.

Junhyuk was very disappointed, so Bebe brought out a book.

“This is a book on manufacturing magic items. Do you want to buy it and read it?”

He looked at the book and asked, “Even if I study it, I won’t be able to make anything if I don’t have the ingredients, correct?”

Bebe shrugged.

“The manufacturing of magic items requires mostly mana stones and bloodstones. You have those, right?”

Junhyuk’s eyes widened slightly. He had the impression that Bebe was just trying to sell him the book.

“I don’t need any other ingredients?”

“Some, but don’t worry about too much.”

Junhyuk gulped and asked, “How much is the book?”

Bebe smiled at him.

“It’s 300,000G. With the discount.”
