Lord of Training - Chapter 91
Only Krnovel
91. Time to hunt.
What is going on?
I was currently running 5 Mana Extraction Circles and 3 Gnome Compression Circles.
The dimensional energy was drained in real time and then replenished all at once by the dimensional core. However, even though it was very small, dimensional energy was being filled inside.
Is there a device here that absorbs dimensional energy?
Then a familiar picture appeared inside the cylindrical pillar.
‘uh!’
In that moment, every hair on my body stood on end.
“External Yeonseongjin!”
Why is this here?
And there are more than one or two of them.
The external ridgepole was engraved on all four sides.
The unique ability that comes with becoming an A-class alchemist is the ability to externally connect.
Now, all the transmutation devices in my alchemist’s workshop are made in the form of factory machines for my convenience, but they basically have transmutation circles engraved on the floor.
The external filament was one that could be engraved externally using dimensional energy.
‘Quadruple? No, it’s a five-fold absorption fusion!’
If he could carve such a complex fusion circle on the outside, he was a very skilled alchemist. Furthermore, judging from the fact that he carved so many, this alchemist was clearly an alchemist who far surpassed S-rank.
‘Were there alchemists among the elves?’
This must be the Earth Hunter class.
A strange thought occurred to me.
And this Yeonseongjin was gathering the dimensional energy inside this S-class labyrinth gate, and this place was a kind of capsule that stored that dimensional energy.
And outside, that high elf was charging the dimensional core in this capsule.
I was thinking of doing a simple experiment.
I took out a small dimensional core that had been used up to the floor in the alchemist’s workshop.
[Small Dimensional Core (Dimensional Energy Remaining: 0.01%)]
And he placed it on the floor where the high elf was lying.
If my guess is correct, there will be some dimensional energy later on.
Came out.
And then I pressed the third button.
Ying! Wham!
The pillar door was closed.
“Ahh!”
Boom!
At that moment, I turned my head at the sound of a scream and something falling.
The high elf stood up and knocked over the desk.
She looked around and started searching for something on the desk.
Then he turned his head and glared at me.
“Hey! Have you seen my weapons that were here?”
“A weapon? Oh! Have you regained your memory?”
The high elf stared at me.
“You’re not an elf.”
“I am human.”
“human?”
Her eyes shook.
“What about the other elves that were here?”
“I don’t know where to start explaining.”
What should I say first to an elf who wakes up a thousand years later?
“This elven dimension is ruined. And you’ve been in that capsule for a thousand years.”
The truth is sometimes the best medicine.
The shock will be great, though.
As expected, she seemed shocked.
“Haa! In the end, I couldn’t stop the dimensional monster.”
The high elf bowed his head with a deep sigh.
And then she started to cry.
I waited a moment for her to calm down on her own.
“I’m ready. Stop killing me!”
“yes?”
The words that came out of her mouth were unexpected.
The high elf had a look of resignation in his eyes.
“Why should I kill you?”
“Huh? Aren’t you an assassin?”
“I come from another dimension. And although the elven world is destroyed, not all elves are dead.”
“What? The elf is alive?”
“The elf who fled to the spirit realm has now moved to the dimension where I live and is living with me.”
“Ah! It looks like the plan to migrate to the spirit world was successful.”
Her eyes sparkled.
Just a moment ago, her eyes had been devoid of hope, but now they seemed to have become lively.
She looked at me and held out her hand.
“I am Lieutenant General Iris Rekeyan, an aerial magic knight of the 13th Dimensional Defense Force! Who are you?”
I didn’t hold her hand.
Instead, he saluted.
chuck!
“I am Brigadier General Alain Bombard, Knight of the Atlantean Kingdom’s Airborne Magic Knights.”
Lieutenant General Iris looked at her hands with an embarrassed expression.
Where do you sell medicine!
I heard it from the Orksha Chieftain.
His mother, a high elf, said that she could see the life or future of a living being through skin contact.
So, even the high elf right in front of me could have spied on my life.
“Have you ever seen a high elf before, besides me?”
“I know of no high elves, but half-high elves with high elf blood.”
She chuckled.
“I don’t have the ability to see someone’s life. I’m just a pure combat high elf.”
“No, that’s not it. When we humans meet someone of higher rank, we greet them like this.”
I don’t know if what she said is true, but I try to avoid skin contact as much as possible.
“But didn’t you see my weapon? It should have been here?”
“Actually, I took all the weapons.”
“Really? I wish you would just give it back.”
She reached out her hand to me.
“I will return it to you when I determine that you are no longer a danger to me.”
“Anyway, it’s a weapon you can’t use. It’s something that only I, among the high elves, can use.”
“I’ll take it for now.”
Iris looked at me and smirked.
“Do you think I can’t kill you just because I don’t have a weapon?”
“well.”
I slowly aimed my Draco assault rifle.
“Huh? That’s also one of our elf weapons.”
“Yes. So you know the power very well.”
WHEEK!
At that moment, a high elf flew towards me.
But I just used my back fly skill and flew backwards.
And he kept aiming the gun.
“You’re an aviation magician too?”
“Just calm down. If you make a mistake, you might end up shooting someone.”
Her movements just now were so natural.
When using low-speed flight skills like ours, instead of just floating slightly and starting to move, it moved very naturally as if it was originally flying.
If I hadn’t prepared to retreat in advance, I would have had my gun taken away.
I lowered the muzzle of Draco’s pistol.
And said.
“If you kill me, your weapons will disappear. They are all in my subspace storage.”
“what?”
“And what is certain is that we are not enemies. The world we live in also had a dimensional gate created 100 years ago, and dimensional monsters have been coming through. That is why we came to this elven dimension and were looking for weapons to fight against the dimensional monsters.”
“Are you saying that your dimension is also being attacked by dimensional monsters?”
“Yes, we are still able to stop them, but if the dimensional monsters that destroyed this world come over, we will not be able to stop them.”
Her expression seemed troubled.
“And now, the dimensional monsters are most prevalent in the spirit realm. We’ve been able to hold out there because we’ve been able to obtain resources like magic stones and floating trees, and our aerial magic knights have been able to gain experience by catching dimensional monsters, but we don’t know when a large number of monsters like this one will cross over. That’s why the elves came to our world.”
“How many elves live in that dimension?”
“I know there are about 5,000. There may be more in the spirit world.”
“Five thousand······, that’s not a lot.”
She looked disappointed.
“Can you take me to those elves?”
“Of course. After we deal with the dimensional dragon outside first.”
“Dimensional Dragons? Those things to kill!”
There seemed to be sparks in her eyes.
High elves don’t seem to be very good at hiding their emotions.
Or maybe she’s the type of person who expresses her feelings as they are.
“How many troops do you have?”
“There are six of us, including me.”
“What? How can you catch a dimensional dragon with that number of troops!”
She made a dumbfounded expression.
“If I don’t help you, you have no chance.”
She held out her hand again, asking for her weapon.
“Well, I guess I’ll have to give it a try.”
“What a groundbreaking suicide method. I really hope you give me back my weapon before I die.”
I smirked at her.
“So how about wishing me success or giving me some advice?”
“Hmph!”
She shook her head.
“And stop using formal language. We seem to be about the same age.”
“No way.”
“I am 110 years old.”
“I am 24 years old.”
“what?”
“No matter how long a human lives, he or she cannot live past 100 years.”
“They were a species with a very short lifespan.”
“That’s why we have to live harder.”
“Anyway, I find it awkward to use formal language.”
“Okay. Well then, let’s talk. Iris.”
“Much better.”
Honestly, this elf is probably well over 1,000 years old.
But you’re speaking informally······.
“Oh! And what’s that capsule?”
There were quite a few things I wanted to ask her, but I asked her the one I was most curious about.
“I’ll tell you if you give me back my weapon.”
“Then I guess I’ll have to find out slowly.”
She said she was a pure combat high elf, so I guess she wouldn’t know.
This space isn’t running away anywhere, and I was planning on taking a closer look later since I had to come back later to check the empty dimensional core.
“Just get out.”
“Give me another weapon. I feel naked.”
I took out the Draco gun and magazine belt from the alchemist’s workshop.
“That’s a subspace warehouse?”
Iris looked at me with suspicion.
I felt like something was fishy.
“If you don’t want to take this, put it back in.”
“no.”
Iris put on her belt and checked her pistol.
Crunch! Bang!
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen a regular gun.”
Despite having slept for a thousand years, she was quite adept at handling an automatic rifle.
I went out the hallway she came in through.
***
“Who the hell is the commander?”
“Gasp! It’s an elf!”
The agents’ mouths opened wide.
There was one when I went down, but there were two when I came out.
And of course, one of them was a high elf, so it was surprising.
“This is Iris. This is my subordinates.”
Iris glanced at the crew and made a disappointed expression.
“Everyone’s mana is lacking.”
“Do you have a skill to see mana amounts?”
“That’s basic for a high elf.”
The agents were bewildered by Iris’s arrogant speech.
“Haa! Trying to catch a dimensional dragon with these soldiers······.”
Iris shook her head.
“Let’s go into the jungle first.”
Because this place was so open.
***
Under the giant tree.
I was on guard duty, and everyone was asleep.
‘That was definitely an external fusion.’
I thought of the Yeonseongjin I saw in the capsule during the day.
A complex absorption matrix with five layers.
And that was a sphere that gathered dimensional energy.
Then, can’t I make it soon too?
If I can catch the S-rank Dimensional Dragon that rules this area, I will become an S-rank Magic Knight.
And my alchemist level will also rise to A rank.
When you become an A-class alchemist, you gain your first unique ability, which is External Alchemy.
External engraving is the engraving on the outside of a engraving made in an alchemist’s workshop.
I heard that SSS-rank alchemist Nicolas Flamel could instantly turn buildings into dust and even build fortresses overnight.
‘But how is the alchemist’s circle here?’
I felt frustrated because no matter how much I racked my brain, I couldn’t come up with an answer.
I shook my head to clear away the distracting thoughts.
First, let’s catch the Dimensional Dragon!
Here I had to rise to the named level and return to the outpost.
They were now at war with the Kingdom of Nubia, and were almost ready to bomb Waples.
A large-scale air battle was about to break out, and in order to reduce the damage to our air magic knights, I and the others here had to become stronger.
***
“Kuaaaaaaa!”
A terrifying roar shakes the jungle.
Wheeeeeeing!
A huge shadow covered the jungle.
Wherever he passed, a strong wind blew, and all the monsters living in the jungle held their breath.
And us too.
“How are you going to catch that guy when your bodies are so frozen?”
Iris smirked at the sight of the cowering members.
“Alain, just give me my dimensional weapon. I’ll help you. Then you and I can take him down.”
“No! This is our job. You just watch.”
The dimensional dragon seen up close was really big.
It was a true monster, with a wingspan of well over 300 meters and a body length of 150 meters including the tail.
This dragon guy’s movement path is very simple.
Once a day, it hunts a different monster in the jungle and takes it to its nest to eat.
“He’s gone hunting. Let’s go to his nest.”
We were heading to the guy’s nest now.
If you want to catch a tiger, go to the tiger’s den.
The bastard’s nest was inside the canyon.
If we had approached from the sky, it would have been easy, but we were now approaching the ground, so our hands and feet were suffering.
‘If we’re going to ambush, this would be a good place.’
There were plenty of places to hide because of the canyon.
The operation I had in mind was similar to how Franco first caught the lizard monster.
But back then, the method was the exact opposite.
Of course, you can’t defeat a dimensional monster through a head-on confrontation.
So if the agents distract the guy and I repeatedly deliver powerful blows, the chances of catching him increase.
“Go to the other side of the nest.”
We’ve checked out the bastard’s nest, now it’s time to check out the other side.
***
We’ve spent the last few days learning about its habits and the terrain around it, as well as what dimensional monsters live nearby.
Chi-chik!
“Everyone, don’t move until I give the signal!”
– all right.
I looked at Iris next to me.
“Iris, I would like to borrow your weapon.”
“Poohahaha!”
Iris openly laughed at me.
“If you want to use it, use it! I’m sorry, but that’s a weapon that no one but me can use.”
“Then use it well.”
I took out the Iris sniper rifle.
At that moment, dimensional energy left my body.
The dimensional sniper rifle was covered in a thin black film.
“You, you! How about dimensional energy?”
Iris looked at me with a shocked expression.
The Dimensional Sword was difficult for me to use because it drew too much dimensional energy, but the Dimensional Sniper Rifle and Dimensional Rifle were usable enough.
And while I was catching S-rank monsters at this labyrinth gate and reaching level 16, I had awakened 3 skills.
I loaded three spirit bullets.
Crunch!
Now is the time to hunt him down.
