Chapter 1002
Episode 246. Battle for the Great Desert of Mithra (12)
I immediately relayed the words to Quaul, and he said the same thing as Jin.
{What crazy! Why couldn’t a genius like me come up with that simple idea!? Total, that’s it! It is possible to deliver it to the inside through the passage, and it is also possible to activate the release device inside!}
“I see, Dr. Quawl. We will continue to airlift the materials needed to work on the device, so please speed up the work if possible.”
{Yes, yes! I like to work!}
“Probably, we’ll have to build a lot of release devices.”
Throw a liberation device into the passage between Lapla Rosa and Inse.
Even this simple solution was not without problems. The enemies couldn’t stand to watch. There was also a very high risk of damage to the device from artillery fire or shockwaves generated during the battle.
{Five days… no, hmm! four days? No, three days…? One in three days! Alright, I could make one every three days if Valeria keeps assisting me. For now, that’s for the best.}
“What about things like properties inside the aisles? For example, it can be destroyed due to the characteristics of subspace from the inside. The pressure could be too high, things like that.”
{Yes, you said that the commander brothers felt a sudden contraction inside Lapra Rosa as soon as a dimensional error occurred, right? The details get complicated… Well, in short, it’s completely random. The state where the internal pressure rises and falls randomly is repeated.}
“Can the device still survive?”
{A precision machine like this that even ordinary warriors of the Ming Dynasty can’t stand? can’t stand it Adding the Ancient Iron Chest and the magic seal would make it a little better, but that doesn’t completely eliminate the impact, and it will break the device. Instead, that random pressure rise is bound to fade over time.}
“I see what you mean.”
{Yes, yes. And as much as it goes up and down randomly even now, you know it’s good to start right away, right? Devices can be crafted almost infinitely anyway, so you have to try as many as you can. I’d rather take something else than a pressure issue, gunman.}
“What is?”
{Currently, in Lapla Rosa, the warriors and warriors are blocking the enemy’s attack from entering the passage. If so, it is probably spreading brain qi in a wide range to form a kind of protective film, but it is rather likely to be caught there.}
“Ah, yes…! Even before we came out, the Tushin brothers were forming a huge protective shield with brain energy. As Brother Jin knows, it’s not just a shield, it has the property of tearing down everything that comes by itself. Even if you throw it to avoid the enemy’s attack, it could get caught in it and be destroyed.”
Belize said.
“Hmm… For that part, let’s write a big letter on the box and throw it.”
“Oh, another such simple solution.”
“If it is not possible to communicate directly to the inside, this is the only way.”
{It’s okay. Total, then what should I write on the box?}
“Leave it alone. What I engrave with my sword will be the best for my brothers to recognize.”
{It’s great, it’s romantic.}
“Valeria will go immediately. Then please, Dr. Quawl.”
Valeria had already packed her things and left her conference room.
When his communication ended, Jin cleared his chest and looked at his comrades.
“The kids did the right thing. It came to my mind when I saw kids outside playing ball.”
“That might have been helped by Azmil, kid.”
“Sure. Whatever it is, kids should be properly rewarded. Jet, tell Latri to close the tea shop for a while and take care of the kids.”
“Yeah, sir! The kids will really like it, but it was always a torch for Latri-nim’s snacks to be lacking, haha.”
Jin’s gaze landed on the blueprint on the table. It was the blueprint for the Lafra Rosa liberation device that Valeria had just left behind.
‘The size of the device itself is roughly the size of Murakan’s upper body. It weighs 50 kilograms…’
If you add a shockproof steel box and various sealing magic treatments to it, the volume and weight will double.
There was no difficulty at all for superhumans of super strength to carry, move, or throw. Rather, I thought it would be okay to deliberately increase the weight and size to make it easier to identify.
Just as Jett was about to find Latri, the conference room communicator vibrated.
{The total number is Oul.}
“Oul-sama, what happened to the Great Desert?”
{…it’s not a big deal. It’s just that that demon called Masalun is making a fuss with you to keep your promise. He told them that if they don’t keep their promise within today, they won’t attack the enemy first.}
It was a promise to touch Shuri.
Now was the time to get along with the three demons as best as possible. In particular, as soon as Masalun started to move properly, he drove the air fortresses back and forth with his own power.
“Okay, I’ll go right now.”
* * *
An explosion was heard from afar.
Even after the Bamal Alliance withdrew, the enemy tribes continued to fight in the Great Desert. It wasn’t exactly a battle, it was continuing to fire through the passageway of Lapla Rosa while avoiding the demons’ interference.
The remnants and wastes of chaos left in the center of the Great Desert have already been swept away by the fire. The sky, which was all stained with red brain, was filled with only red flashes that distorted and exploded in space.
Van was supposed to be protecting his brothers beyond that, in Lapla Rosa.
“Ah, the Toshin brothers say it’s okay?”
Belize said this again, looking at Jean, whose face darkened.
“It’s because I feel bad thinking that there will be shelling like that all the time, Brother Belize.”
But Belize was actually a little worried about Van. The weapon of war called the aerial fortress clearly had power beyond her imagination, and it was a situation where shelling, which could only be seen in a showdown with the gods of the Myeong royal family in the past, continued every minute.
Gin and Belize, Lynfa.
There were three people who visited the Great Desert this time. The first liberation device hadn’t been completed yet, so this time, if possible, he intended to return without a fight.
[Are you finally here to keep your promise to Marsalun, Gene Runcandel?]
Masalun recognized Jin like a ghost as soon as he appeared in the heart of the desert. All three demons were using the ground of the Great Desert as if it were their own senses.
As soon as Jin saw him, he recalled the memory of sweating to soothe Shuri. According to Ameris’ accurate translation, the reaction was something like, ‘You said no, damn it!’
However, it wasn’t that he didn’t like it because something went wrong when he came into contact with Marsal Rune, it was just unpleasant.
“Masalun. Before I let you touch Shuri, I have something to say.”
[I’m afraid someone might not be an orphan, so I’m teasing my wicked tongue until the end.]
“Anyway, those who are related to witches love the word orphan. It’s not malicious, and even if Shuri reacts somewhat uncomfortable to your touch, it has nothing to do with the promise.”
[You seem to think of Masalun as an idiot. Hurry up and show me Shuri.]
[Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!]
As soon as Shuri got out of the prison, she showed a vicious energy while looking at Masalun.
[Oh… Shuri, the witch Heluram completed a branch of sorrow by abandoning you.]
[Kyaaak!]
“They say it’d be nice if we could stop talking like beggars and just touch them quietly.”
Curse of Immortality.
Jin suddenly remembered that there are similarities between Shuri and his demons. The trio of demons and Shuri, they can never be killed in a physical way. Although it has not yet been confirmed whether the immortality of the demons is as permanent as Shuri’s.
‘Perhaps the curse on Shuri is a much higher authority. In the past, Murakan and Quikantel said that the curse requires at least one million human sacrifices, and the content itself is much more terrible than Shuri’s…’
Unlike her demons, Shuri feels pain from physical blows. Even if his body disintegrates into particles, it only regenerates again.
Until now, no one can kill Shuri. It was possible to bind and restrain or seal it, and Shuri couldn’t die even if she went through that.
[Jin Runkandel, and Shuri… Oh, the red-jailed tomb of sorrow. You guys don’t know how the witch felt when she cursed Shuri.]
“I don’t even care about that. Masalun, you seem to be good at curses. Are you familiar with the curse of immortality?”
Shuri continued to miss the touch of Masalun. However, Masalun was touching Shuri very carefully, like porcelain, and showed no sign of harm.
[I know that. Do you want to lift that curse? Shuri seems to love you very much right now.]
Since I can’t live forever like Shuri, Jin swallowed those words and waited for Masalun’s next words.
[Miyaak!]
[There are two ways to break the witch’s curse. But both are close to impossible.]
“What is it?”
[One is to become a witch’s lover. Then she can make a request to the witch. Demon Beast King Orgal overcame death that way.]
It was information obtained unexpectedly, but it did not seem to be of high use value right away.
[The second is to erase witches from this world. And that’s something even your gods couldn’t do…]
“Solderett tried to kill the witch?”
[It’s a little different from murder, but it’s similar. However, sometimes a lowly mortal can do what a god can’t do… so try. After all, Masalun means that whether you fail or succeed, you can savor the process. No matter what the future looks like, there will be great sadness.]
While Jin was choosing what to answer, Masalun let Shuri go.
[The reward for what Masalun did this time is enough. If you want Marsal Rune to help you in the future, let him faithfully fulfill the contract as he does now ….]
At that, Shuri was more surprised than Jin. He would have known that it would take several hours for him to touch the enemy in exchange for hitting them.
Shuri was thinking to herself, ‘At least this is enough for me to touch her?’ For Jin, it seemed that he could endure that much.
[A new guest came to the Great Desert, will you make a new contract with Masalun?]
Hearing Masalun’s words, Jin raised his senses and looked back. I felt a man of enormous power slowly approaching the center of the Great Desert.
It was Elona Ziple.
