Chapter 107 Blessings and disasters, two meteorites-2
________________________________________________________________________________
A large fireball fell and shook the earth's axis.
Even though the sky turned red for a while,
Soon the whole world turned white.
Vision stopped completely.
And in my ear, only the sound of tinnitus sounded.
Go-oh-oh-oh-oh-—
The hustle and sand wind blew from the front to the outside of the mountain foot.
How long has the time passed ...
My vision that had lost its function slowly began to recover.
" ...Uh, is it true that we did not experience any damage, right? "
The distance is only a few hundred meters from the blow of the meteorite, but all three are not damaged even in a hot storm.
As Lee Hyun-wook said, he received absolute "protection ".
"Because it is one of the features of this item."
Lee Hyun-wook listens to "Okeanos induction device".
Yellow light emanated from it.
"Hey, if not, will it be a suicide item? "
Lee Hyun-wook nodded and took steps.
As we crossed the hillside, the view of the fallen trees stretched out, and the ground behind it was completely upside down and radiated heat.
" ... ... This area is still hot, so be careful."
Chii ...
Closer, I felt hot air and boiling cracked soil, and tree roots that somewhat turned into trampled charcoal.
They carefully approached the center of the meteorite collision.
"So you mean there is a huge treasure there? "
" ... ... Great, it looks like there will be a bomb now. "
Kim Se-hee and Lee Jung-joon said it anxiously.
However, in Lee Hyun-wook's head, there was a strange thought.
' ... ... Obviously, the news said that the large fraction was heading to Jeju Island. '
Which spawning will soon disappear and radio waves will recover soon. At that time, I had to make sure, but in my opinion Lee Hyun-wook was not wrong.
'Really, you have never tried eating in this country? '
Lee Hyun-wook did a tut and kicked his tongue.
Villain has long tried to seize hegemony in Asia, but occasionally they fails to control the Republic of Korea, which is one of the most important point. However, they rarely give up and keep running back and forth.
'Not that I don't understand. '
China was dominated during the second wave, and Japan should have its roots in demon worshipers, and Japan had to take the last "large shaft " more clearly than swallowing several more Southeast Asian countries.
'And most importantly ... ... Doesn't Laputa want to have it? '
In other words, Seoul will be a key point that they cannot submit.
if so ...
' ... ... That much, I also constantly block it. '
On the contrary, it can be a good thing. If the Villains does not hide from view and rush to 'trench ' that Lee Hyun-wook dug... ...he just have to install the machine gun and wait.
And at the decisive moment, there was a shootout.
'Also, they won't know I hit them ... ... .'
Even Villains who know all kinds of dangerous information cannot possibly know everything. In particular, this Okeanos induction device has belonged to others in their previous lives, without being detected by them.
And there are things that are useful for attacking 〈Paeton〉.
"Hey! There is something! "
exclaimed Lee Jung-jun. The location is close to the collision point.
All three descended the meteorite crater.
"Uh, what's up? Isn't that a tombstone? "
It looks more like a rectangular tombstone than a meteorite ... ... All kinds of patterns are engraved on the surface of the stone, measuring about 1.5m.
Previously, the meteorite that fell here was said to be 'broken solar chariot '. This is a mythical motive, not a real chariot.
Chii-i——!
The ground around the tombstone is boiling.
"Sorry, but I can't go any further. "
The closer I goes, the stronger the heat. Lee Jung-joon couldn't even get close, and Kim Se-hee walked back with the wind curtain around his body.
Only Lee Hyun-wook prevents heat by body armour.
He reached out his left hand and placed it on the surface of the tombstone.
-Do you want to open 'Unknown Object '?
" ...You two, please step away. "
Lee Hyun-wook said that, and focused on his left hand.
And when you inject mana into the tombstone —
Feathers —oh—!
The explosion of fire, the bottom around the tombstone went out, and the flame soared high.
-Area has been selected as 〈Fire Sanctuary〉.
* The average temperature within a 5 km radius of the inscription increases by 8 degrees.
* 'Fire type ecosystems ' will be created within a 10 km radius of the monument.
* The melting point of all metals is drastically reduced. (-30%)
* When 'quenching' here, its strength increases significantly. (+30%)
* All metals produced here are high-end ''.
* Additional effects are applied when enchanting the fire property here.
'This is a blessing from heaven. '
A sustainable buff with large areas of falsehood can drive the development of the magical steel industry, and this is an effect that can feed a country.
'If one day I move Laputa here, will the synergy be good enough? '
Furthermore, all kinds of goods scatter from the floor that has been completely turned off. Most of them are red beads, and they are high-grade fireballs 1~3.
But there is something very important.
He pushed dozens of balls from side to side like stones swept away. Then another item appears in it.
Among them, there is one bracelet-shaped object.
-You have obtained 'Protection of Helios (Hero) '.
'This is a very helpful item in attacking Paeton.'
This item compensates for a number of fire attacks issued by the Chlorinated Giant, allowing them to withstand volcanic eruptions or attacks.
However, Lee Hyun-wook took it and took out the biggest object embedded in the deepest part. that ... ... That is a very large iron box.
'Yes, here it is.'
[Item information]
-Name: Eternal Fire Box (Legendary)
-Effect: Provides the 'Fire ' attribute on the item in this box.
If you use this to make 'object ' in the form of a furnace, it will turn into a facility that can turn ordinary underground rivers into 'fireballs '.
'In the past, Vietnam has built an armory window based on this, right? '
Because the weapons made there have a high level of fire properties and some have an effect "explosion ", Lee Hyun-wook imports and uses "blast rods " from these weapons.
'That is fraud. Specifically, it was a fraud when I used it. '
The metal firepower controlled by Lee Hyun-wook is almost 'torn to the maximum unless he has his own expertise, and that is a very disappointing part.
'Because it doesn't work well against enemies with good defense ... ... '
However, in the case of metals with a magic explosion effect, the metal can be raised to a level similar to "missile " which is accompanied by a fire blast.
"Uh ... how many?"
Sehee Kim asked, standing far away.
"But I don't think I have time to check one by one. "
"Yes? What else happened? "
"I have to check where the second meteorite fell. "
"Oh! Looks like I heard it's Jeju Island. "
Lee Hyun-wook is back busy.
First, I contacted team leader Gyo-jun Lee and explained about the meteorite at Gangwon-do. He also expressed his doubts about the fact that Hyun-wook Lee induced the meteorite, but he also said that it was "exclusive search " related to Laputa.
"And I heard that the meteorite fell on Jeju Island. "
-Yes, that's right. Do you know what meteorites are? The two meteorites were originally one, so there must be a connection.
"I don't know exactly, but this is a unlucky event. "
-Damn, I'll pass it on to the chief like that.
"Yes, we will contact you again when we get new information. "
Then I immediately called Park Chul-soo.
"Hyung, can you buy me the stock I'm talking about with your spare money now? "
-Uh huh?
Park Chul-soo asked doubtfully about out-of-the-box stock stories.
Lee Hyun-wook has raised tens of billions of dollars in one way or another, such as the 4th wave prize and the red player prize.
In addition, using his future knowledge, he raised money passionately, but Park Chul-soo took over all the work.
"Currently, towards the industry 'magic mobility'... There are companies like 〈Blue Tree Air〉 in the US and 〈Gold Griffin〉 in Chad, right? "
Magical mobility, literally means technology related to vehicles that use mana as a source of power, and ship is its representative.
No company has yet achieved concrete results in this regard, but value investment continues because it is valued as food for the future.
– Hi! What does that mean suddenly? No, Hyunwook, the meteorite that fell on Gangwon-do more than that. Maybe that's what we bought ...
"Yes, right. I'll tell you later, so take care of it first. "
-No, I say later all the time ...
"—Brother, please do that right now before closing the market! "
He hung up and immediately sent a message to Yeo Sang-min.
"Now, tell Soiler to call the Dwarf craftsman."
– Yes?
Like Cheol-soo Park, Sang-min Yeo also asked back in a strange voice.
-Well, if everything's fine ... Will there be a hundred and fifty people?
"Yes, it's all necessary work. "
– uh ... ... What do you think you are gathering for?
Lee Hyun-wook paused, then answered briefly.
" ... ... Tell them we are preparing for war. "
***
Dark underground facilities, small lights on.
That is no ordinary space. It was a bomb shelter mounted 11 floors underground, and it was a place where magic shields and magic were drooping.
In front of the table in the middle, a man is sitting.
" ... ... The government decides and bites it, so I can't stand it. "
He is the master of the guild 〈Taesan〉, Baekjun Ki.
And now, I'm calling someone through a magic channel.
"Damn it! It's also been a day or two, and now it's the limit! Every time I touch Lee Hyun-wook, little by little, we dry up and die! "
As if he had touched the beehive wrong, no, as if he had mismanaged the gas fire, every time he touched Lee Hyun-wook, he was swept away by a terrible storm.
Even recently, Baekjun Ki's breath was getting crowded with evidence of the dark deeds of the Taesan Guild where he got it.
Thus, Taesan, the third largest guild in Korea, fell.
" ... ... So what did the chairman say to me? "
"The Chairman " only ordered him to wait. I wondered if it had been like this for months.
" ... Yes? "
But only after all this time, new orders came.
"No, I ... ... ."
He held the phone firmly and sharpened his teeth.
" ... ... If disaster befalls Jeju Island, the strength of the Korean peninsula has no choice but to focus on it. Are you saying that you were eyeing Laputa at the time? "
In other words, it is commonly referred to as 'empty furry'.
"ha ha ... ... ."
Baekjun Ki smiled suspiciously in misery.
"You want to go out and take Laputa, do you really mean it? "
That means being a villain — red player.
'Actually, because it's no use, you will use it as a disposable card, right? '
However, his anger did not increase as before.
After all, he was stuck in a dead end.
"Huh... If we complete the operation, I will leave this country. Damn, I have no choice but to leave, but please make sure to do it. "
He decided to run away from the Republic of Korea. His house, 〈Taesan〉, has dried up and died, so there are nothing left for him in this country.
However, his eyes widened when the sound over the telephone was followed.
A very interesting story flowed into his ear,
Baekjun Ki raised the tip of his mouth and gave a suspicious smile without realizing it.
"Ah, really? Haha— Then, you should be able to face the top players in the country by disguising yourself as an accident. That's a fun idea for a disaster in the skies of Jeju."
A disaster has just struck Jeju Island.
Soon, a large-scale support force will be sent there… … .
They are scheduled to be stored without landing on Jeju Island.
"Okay... for a long time I didn't like this scenario."
***
It is true that there is an unknown meteorite falling on Baengnokdam, Jeju Island.
And quickly it turned out it wasn't just a meteorite.
-... ... This is in a helicopter overlooking the meteorite collision point in Baengnokdam, Jeju Island! You can see gray smoke rising from Baengnokdam, as if a volcanic eruption occurred!
A broadcast station helicopter flies in the sky of Jeju.
-And there is a big hole dug in Baengnokdam!
It was seen from its craters, a former meteorite impact.
And inside ... ...
Qu-de-de-de-!
The fire giant measuring about 20m begins to soar high.
– Ugh!
The scene was captured intact by the camera,
Only the rough breath of the cameraman and the news anchor filled the audio.
At that moment, his large hand flew towards the helicopter.
– eh! Ahhhh ... ... that giant monster reaches this side!
... ... Thankfully, it's out of reach.
Then-
Fu-hwa-ah-ah-—
A long pillar of fire came out of the monster's grasp,
At the end of the scene, the news screen returns to the studio.
– Ah....
As a result, emergency evacuation orders were issued throughout Jeju Island.
In addition, the National Gate Response Committee, a council that gathers the best players in the country and responds to the national crisis, was immediately formed.
Lee Hyun-wook also visited the conference remotely.
Soon, team leader Gyo-jun Lee began the first briefing.
"Okay, everyone look at this. "
At the beginning of the briefing, he made a video.
"This is a video of the 13th AMT Sea Search Team returning to the Jeju Naval Base, about 30 minutes after the meteorite collision. "
Shortly thereafter, the beach cliff spreads to become a vibrating screen.
Dudududu—
The sound of the propeller, maybe from a military helicopter.
Platoon Captain, Hallasan is on fire!
-Fuck, monsters come out of meteorites, aren't they aliens?
When I hear a conversation like that,
A lot of red powder began to fly towards them.
No-T-Dc- No-No-
At first glance, it just looks like fire dung ... ...
It fills Jeju's sky.
– What is this! Is this inevitable?
-Too much... ...eh! The plane is on fire!
Chii-i——
When they touch the gas, doesn't it turn on right away? And in a short time the fire spreads.
-Fuck, that's not just bullshit! Mo, that's a monster!
Immediately after such screams, louder parties were heard one after another.
And again, the screen is dead.
I know without saying that they have been destroyed.
" ... ... The fiery flying vehicle that you just saw is a kind of evil spirit, 'Red Wisp'. The size is very small, but one can burn forests, and there are tens of thousands of them scattered throughout the island. In other words, access by plane or ship is difficult. "
Shortly thereafter, a satellite map of Jeju Island appeared on the screen.
It was a picture that looked like it was taken with a thermal imaging camera,
Red dots are tightly embedded along the coastline.
"All points are 'red blobs '."
In the following, "Red Wisp" says that it is impossible to paralyze it because it has the habit of rushing unconditionally when it is felt.
In other words, it is almost impossible to land on Jeju Island with ordinary means of transportation, and it takes a lot of flying objects with "mana machine " which can hold a magic shield for a long time, wrapped around a magic metal.
Simply put, that means 'inferno ship' is necessary.
– That ... Can't Inferno control the fire? No matter how much they run, you can push it away.
Some video conference participants called Inferno. Of course, Inferno, the fire controller, will be able to control those things.
However, team leader Lee Kyo-jun shook his head.
"Yes, we also tried to contact them ... Inferno was attacking the Red Gate in Gimhae two days ago. Given the size of the gate ... This will take about three more days. "
Then, a commotion was heard from everywhere.
-Big... ... Then, which ship is suitable. It might be difficult to use one or two, but isn't there 〈Friedwen〉 by Lee Hyun-wook and 〈Oryonggeo〉 by the Holy Knight which is slightly bigger than that? I even mobilized it ... ...
At that time, team leader Lee Gyo-jun shook his head again.
"That's right, the Holy Knight of AMT has also entered an operation to attack the underground prison " Ghoul "super large held in Cheongju. And because it's also the Red Gate ... It took about 3 days to complete the attack. "
Sounds of tongue kicks from all sides.
-No, is there an unreasonable time like this?
-By the way, the most important workforce is all missing ....
It was a situation that made it confused to see it as a coincidence.
" ... ... This is also a question for us. "
Only Lee Hyun-wook understood this questionable coincidence as unavoidable.
'All of that must be a strategy to distract by Villains.'
Some gates are opened by some methods by Villains. Maybe, as in the fourth wave, the main power has been removed first.
"Okay, but I'm sure we don't have time to wait for them. Even today, civilians are in danger. Second, we must find a way to escort Jeju residents inland. "
-We can't enter. What channel do you use to escort civilians?
-If you move wrong for no reason, you just die, this ...
At that time, a new face appeared on the list of video conference participants.
– Ah! This is Seoyoon Kang!
It was a 4th place appearance in the ranking of Korean players.
- Everything, fortunately, 〈Blue Tree〉 has just decided to support ship issue! At the same time, it was said that there were three non-engineering units moored in Japan to support the post-treatment of the Okinawa crisis in Japan!
Then, sighs of relief flow from one place to another.
-Whoa ... ... After all, CEO Kang has always been a problem solver!
Blue Tree, an international giant company, has become a leader in the magical mobility industry, which has long been producing and operating "non-processing manufacturing ".
"But it's firm, but it's not huge. "
It was just a flying stone to float the fuselage made of magic metal, and then mana was supplied there was applied with mana battery.
And the way to drive it still uses 'jet engine '.
In other words, it is a product that is randomly sewn from all types of materials.
Compared to "types of non-processing items " such as Friedwen and Oh Ryong-geo, they are much lower in terms of performance and energy efficiency.
'The cost of maintaining one aircraft carrier alone is the same as the cost of three aircraft carriers ... ... '
But now, that is needed. Without it, a large number of players cannot land on Jeju.
-If it's not fair, it's a 130-seat model, right?
– Five ... ... If there is, it could have landed on Jeju Island!
However, Lee Hyun-wook tried hard.
'these guys, this time using the same amount of garbage ... ... .'
〈Blue Tree 〉 in the United States is a company led by Gordon Price.
In other words, this ship support also contains the ruse of the Villains.
'Maybe ... ... He tried to hold us all at once.'
That is a very clear number, and I used it several times in my previous life.
But that was then.
"Everyone, this is Woo Sung-moon. I will only say one word. "
Everyone be quiet.
Woo Sung-moon, he is actually the host of this meeting.
If he speaks up, that means it's a pretty important agenda.
By the way... ...
" ... ... We will not borrow Blue Tree injustice."
That is not a statement that breaks the core of this meeting,
– Yes? What do you mean?
-If so, maybe there is another number?
Embarrassing voices flowing from here and there,
So Woo Sung-moon nodded.
"Yes that's right. "
He saw Lee Hyun-wook's face on the screen.
"...We have a fleet ready."
***
And at the same time, Laputa's ship port was busy.
They are Soilers and other Gray Dwarf craftsmen.
"No, it makes sense if all of that was overhauled in 12 hours! "
"Who...but that makes sense, you finish it somehow!"
They sweat and giggle about what they really like.
"Hey, I must be sweating, I want to drink beer, but can't I? "
"Well ... ... It won't be okay if you just sip it ... ... "
Then someone shouted.
"—Yes, I can't! "
That's Sangmin Yeo.
He ran panting from the Order Tower.
"Sir, get ready to leave now! "
At the same time, something surged from an ship order tower.
Ooh ooh ooh—
That is Friedwen Lee Hyun-wook.
"Oops! We also can't be late! "
"Yes, if I hate the owner, I'll use it!"
Then, the dwarves were busy moving, and they began to climb twelve non-exhibitions that lined up in the ship harbor in the upper residence area.
It was not as fair as the cloth the Dwarves had driven some time ago, but they had finished repairing the outside at Lee Hyun-wook's request.
Therefore, the appearance of the silvery white is now quite reasonable.
"Come on! Listen to everything! The instructions are safe when you leave! "
Exclaimed Soiler while chasing Friedwen's tail. After that, a total of 12 dwarf critics flew in a row.
At that moment, Lee Hyun-wook's voice came out of all secrets.
-Now, I'm going to get out of the Laputa dome.
"Hahaha- Alright! Let's go! "
-And please ... ...Please drive safely.
Soon, Friedwen Lee Hyun-wook slipped out of the transparent dome.
After that it was followed by a procession of ship among the dwarves,
In other words, a secret set appeared in the Seoul sky.
Ooh ooh ooh—
Their shadow covered the Seoul Station neighborhood,
Residents were forced to immediately raise their heads.
"Uh ... look there!"
"Huh! Uh, what is that? "
In the blue sky, silvery white airplanes appear in large air cities forming regular lines and passing through the Seoul sky.
The scene was also broadcast on the screen 〈National Gate Response Committee 〉.
-No, that's all ...
-Impossible... ...
While the left side was flying, Woo Sung-moon opened his mouth.
"This is an ship fleet that is the mainstay of Friedwen Lee Hyun-wook."
That's when the concept of "ship fleet " emerged in this world.
