Chapter 170: Crack
Junwoo was having a busy day.
The discovery of the elixir turned the world upside down.
The spells flooded in, and the only person who could make the ingredients was Junwoo, so he ran out of mana day and night.
Another gem fell to dust by Junwoo's mana, and Junwoo put it in a small barrel and put it in the item window.
Lloyd, who was watching, opened his mouth.
"Do it while you rest, Master. I'm worried that you're overdoing it these days."
"Yeah, you don't have to worry. He has a good recovery."
"It's not like that, just getting some sleep… …."
He was also making requests for the production book day and night, and it was Junwoo seemed to lack sleep because he was disassembling it in his spare time.
It had been going on for a month, and the fatigue was accumulating.
"Ugh, thank you."
"I hope you are resting today, Master."
"I will."
"Yes, then I will bring minerals."
"Yeah, suffer."
Lloyd lightly bowed his head and left the master room.
Junwoo disassembled a few more on the spot and let out a shallow sigh.
"Whoa… …."
As Lloyd said, feeling dizzy, it seemed he needed a little rest.
Junwoo got up from his seat and was about to move to his room when he received a text from Park Jun-Seong.
[Jun-Sung Park: I received a call saying I am selling light jewels! They say you are coming to Korea tomorrow, Master.]
The most expensive jewel, worth 500 billion won.
It seemed that there was no sale, and the seller finally appeared.
[Lee Junwoo: Yes, I'll take it. You suffered.]
The last remaining material was going to come in, so all the materials for the mobile suit were going to enter Junwoo's item window.
Junwoo waited for the day with a satisfied smile.
The seller was a unique class male from France.
Introduced himself as an adventurer, he sold things to Junwoo, saying that he had picked up jewelry in a cave.
"Thank you for the transaction."
"I think you will create something that will surprise the world again. We will keep you informed through the news."
Junwoo smiled lightly.
"Yes, it will be revealed soon."
"I wish you success. It was an honor to meet you today, Lewis."
The seller left the master room with a light greeting.
Junwoo checked the materials in the item window and moved to the workshop.
"Now, let's make it, chief."
"Yes, sir."
Junwoo gave orders to all the robots in his head.
Seven captain robots, six functional robots, and a class leader robot took the Orichalkon placed on the workbench and prepared them for production.
Junwoo also took a seat and lifted the crafting hammer.
Kaang!
Of course, it wasn't hammering to make a mobile suit.
Because there were two delayed recipes left.
It would be after that Junwoo joined the production of mobile suits.
Kaang!
One recipe was completed, and he went to the master of the sword.
After that, he consumed mana to grind gems, and while taking a break, Junwoo looked at the new items that Hye-Yeon Jeong had pulled out.
Skill books and items with at least a unique level or higher. Among them, if there was an option that suited Junwoo, I thought of buying it immediately.
[Ring of Forest Spirit]
-Rank: Unique+
-Classification: Rings
-Durability: 500/500
*Increases health and mana by 640.
*Increases life recovery by 4 per second.
*Increases mana recovery by 4 per second.
*Increases mana recovery by 20%.
* Reduces skill cooldown by 10%.
*Breath: Increases health and mana regeneration by 20%.
– Item value: 432,000,000,000
It was a ring associated with recovery.
A 20% increase in mana recovery was a favorite option for Junwoo, and breathing was also a good option.
It was a special ring perfect for Junwoo, who has a remarkably high mana recovery, so he immediately reserved it.
The next day, the gold earned from selling the sword and the gold earned from selling the elixir returned as Junwoo's ring.
He kept the existing ring as a spare, and Junwoo went to the workshop to put on a new ring and make it again.
In the workshop, robots were still knocking on Orichalkon, which would become the iron plate of the mobile suit.
As time passed, the steel plates were welded and slowly became the skeleton of the mobile suit.
Lloyd's mouth opened slightly the first time he saw a giant over 3m in size.
"This is… It's a robot, have you decided on a name? master."
"No, not yet."
"I think we need a good name."
"Yes."
"Don't make it simple this time."
Junwoo's mouth opened slightly as he was contemplating a simple name.
"Huh?"
"Also… …."
"ha-ha… …."
"When can I see this friend?"
"About 7 days, maybe 6 days."
"Oh, it's been a while."
It was a job that took about 12 days to produce.
"I am really looking forward to it. Master, I will definitely come to take a look."
"Ugh, put together the blueprints you made. Let's just make this and make it."
"Yes, Master."
Lloyd smiled contentedly and looked at the glimmering giant.
Iron plates were continuously attached to the giant's body over time.
After finishing the production of the one remaining sword, Junwoo also tapped Orichalkon to make a mobile suit.
‘The next four days… ….'
The remaining time was about 4 days.
Junwoo had been banging on Orihalkon all day, and around 11 in the evening, Junwoo's cell phone rang.
However, Junwoo did not receive it because it was a mobile phone far away from the shock.
– beep
Twenty seconds later, at the emergency signal in the workshop, Junwoo stopped hammering and walked toward the cell phone.
The name that came to mind on the ringing phone was Deputy Master Oh Jung-soo.
With his cell phone in hand, Junwoo immediately uses the location change to go out quietly and answer the call.
"I got a call."
"Master, a crack has occurred."
Junwoo's expression hardened slightly at the content.
"Where is the location?"
"The first place of occurrence is Pyongyang."
Cracks often occur simultaneously in the vicinity of the site of occurrence.
It is also right above Pyongyang, and since it is close to the densely populated Seoul, there is a high probability that cracks will also occur in the vicinity of Seoul.
"The estimated level of the first crack is 80… It is expected."
It was a rift where monsters from the level 80 hunting ground poured out, and it was the highest-level monster in the epic grade.
The high level of the first crack was similar to the meaning of the high level of the crack that would be opened in general.
Last time it was 60, this time it was 80.
If it was not discovered at an early stage, it was a level where enormous damage was expected.
"all right. Please take action."
"Yes, Master."
A few seconds after the phone hung up, sirens sounded throughout Korea.
– pe eh eh
Since a crack has occurred in an adjacent place, the siren means to be careful.
Normals would move to a shelter, a shelter from this sound, and ranks higher than Magic would autonomously participate in closing the rift.
The current time was 11 pm in the dark, and the guild members in the building hurried out.
The guild members gathered next to Junwoo, emitting the light of his battle suit.
Junwoo took out his flying car and handed over the key.
"Kim Deok-cheol, ride this to the Earth Plaza, and bring Lloyd, Leon, Imina, and all the golems and guild members."
"Yeah! I'll go right away! master!"
Kim Deok-cheol, who knows the place well, got on the flying car.
Cracks usually lasted about 3 hours.
The situation could have been sorted out when the person in the plaza of the land arrived, but there could be cases where this is not the case, so all the personnel that can be mobilized were needed.
The flying car flew rapidly, and the guild members, including Junwoo, moved quickly.
Junwoo moved to the shelter of Oryun Park, where the largest number of people gather in Songpa.
A huge crowd gathered from all directions.
People moved along the road and raised their heads.
"Hey there, over there, Lee Junwoo."
"I'm glad the crack broke when Master Lee Junwoo was in Korea."
"Last time, there were 0 deaths, so no worries again this time, right?"
"Because it was good that you came to Songpa."
The Aegis guild members moved quickly and entered the boundary of the rift.
A group of people with good sensing abilities scattered around and tried to catch the crack in the early days.
-Ping
[A level 80 crack has occurred near Uijeongbu Station. Residents of nearby areas should leave the area, and those who can participate in battles, please cooperate with the local guild.]
That was bad news.
The level was 80. It was a crack in the level where considerable damage was expected.
-Ping
[Level 80 cracks near Namsan Park….]
This time it was 80.
If it is Namsan, there is Daehan, so even at level 80, there would be little damage.
Junwoo received a report on the situation and looked at his cell phone.
[Control Room: A crack has occurred at Gildong Aram Elementary School.]
It was relatively close.
"Murata, Yoshimura."
Murata nodded and spoke.
"We will go see."
"If you want to be quiet, come to support."
Junwoo nodded his head.
"Let's go, brother."
The guild members, the Murata Corps, including the two, ran as a group.
Junwoo flew lightly and wandered around the rooftops near Oryun-dong, paying attention to crack detection.
The mana of the rift is hard to feel unless you are close.
There seemed to be no sense of energy.
[Level 70 crack near Gildong Aram Elementary School… ….]
The level in the direction Murata went was also quite high.
[Control Room: Jeong So-Hyun detected a crack near Macheon Street.]
It was a place close to the Aegis Guild building in Songpa.
[Do Jae-Woon: We'll go.]
Junwoo looked at the phone with a calm face.
A few minutes passed, and a text message flew in from the general manager, Do Jae-woon.
[Jaewoon Do: The energy of the rift is over 15 minutes. Please support.]
It was a fissure with a scale of at least level 80 in 15 minutes and level 90 in 20 minutes.
[Lee Junwoo: I will go.]
After leaving a text message, Junwoo flew straight to the place.
* * *
"A level 80 rift has occurred in Pyongyang."
News of the rift spread as breaking news in neighboring countries.
China also reported on the cracks occurring on the Korean Peninsula as breaking news, and the news was also broadcast live in Yunnan.
A man drinking in an apartment in Kunming, the home of Dark Star, opened his mouth while watching the news.
"It's level 80, so I'm a little nervous."
"It's a super emergency. Won't you come this far?"
"No matter how wide the range, it's impossible to get here."
The man who spoke up was Kunming 1, who received a monthly salary from Lee Junwoo in Korea.
His job is to deliver news from all over Yunnan to Junwoo.
It was mostly a report on the movements of Dark Star's executives.
In an instant, the TV screen stopped.
"yes?"
"Why are you there? Is it broken?"
"Well?"
They both didn't understand English and stared blankly at the TV.
After waiting for a while, there was no change. The man sitting in front of Kunming 1 looked at his phone.
"what? My cell phone is working. What is it?"
Kunming 1 hurriedly took out his cell phone.
There was no reception, no transmission, and no internet connection.
"What, why?"
Kunming 1 went to the window with a puzzled face and tried to catch the signal.
But the phone was still working.
At that moment, a loud noise that cut through the sky could be heard in Kunming 1's ears.
Kunming 1 looked at him with a puzzled face.
The noise soon disappeared, but the cell phone was still unused.
‘Is there a crack in the vicinity of the base station?'
