Chapter 478: Chapter 477 - Changes 2

Ariel smiled and said, [The most important change is that now there is a portal for the dimensional merchant inside the castle.]

“The merchant portal is inside the castle?!”

That was good news to him. He wouldn’t have any problems getting to Bebe now. Anyone could return to the castle to see the merchant. Returning wasted some time, so he wouldn’t do it often, but he would see Bebe when he could.

[Yes. Plenty of heroes complained about the difficulty of using the merchant in the new map, so there are now portals inside the castle.]

Suddenly, Junhyuk thought of something and asked, “Wait. Does that mean I can encounter enemy heroes at the store?”

Ariel shook her head and said, [That won’t happen.]

“How can you be so sure?”

[There are two entrances to the store, and the structure of the portals is different.]

Junhyuk didn’t understand what she was saying, but he had a thought, so he muttered, “Are the dimensional phases for each portal different?”

[That is correct.]

That had satisfied his curiosity about that, but he was still curious about the other changes.

“What else changed?”

[There are five portals spread through the map now.]

“Portals?!”

Junhyuk hadn’t expected that, but Ariel continued with her explanation.

[The flow of battle was too slow, so five portals have been installed through the map so that you can move by using them. The center lane has one portal, while the left and right lanes have two each. They are between the first and second towers of each team and at the buff tower. They help decrease the time spent moving.]

“That’s a really good idea!”

Going from the middle to the sides took at least four hours. They would be able to bring that down to one hour. From left to right, it took eight hours, but now, they would be able to do it in two.

The portals would change the flow of battle, and rounds would be much shorter now. The allies could concentrate their efforts. Junhyuk would have to focus on evaluating the entire battlefield.

“Just those two changes?”

[There is another.]

“What is it?”

[The last change is that, from now on, there will be two roaming buff monsters in the map. These new buff monsters are stronger than the regular ones, but they also award stronger buffs.]

The monsters wouldn’t be stationary, and Junhyuk thought the changes were significant.

“How much stronger are they? From a hero’s perspective.”

[Every hero has different powers, so it’s hard to predict the difficulty of the monsters. They are weaker than dragons, but stronger than any other monster.]

Junhyuk gave her a bitter smile. He couldn’t kill a dragon by himself, especially when his powers were limited in the Dimensional Battlefield.

He nodded and walked up to the exit. He would go see Bebe immediately to raise his strength.

“I’ll be back.”

[Hero Junhyuk Lee deployed!]

When he got outside, he walked by the minions to where the others were. It didn’t look like Sarang and Elise had gotten out yet.

Gongon greeted him warmly, “Junhyuk!”

The hatchling walked up to him wagging his tail, and Junhyuk laughed.

“Why are you so happy?”

“You have something to give me.”

Junhyuk pulled out the large fang that had been used to summon the Bone Dragon, and Gongon stared at it with gritted teeth.

“How did you kill it?”

“I did what you told me.”

“He-he-he! Assholes. Should I revive them so that we can their up their souls again?”

Gongon looked cute, but what he said was vicious. Junhyuk shook his head and looked at the others.

“Did you hear about the changes?”

“Yes. Things will go much quicker now.”

“Right, but communication is paramount now. Be ready for our enemies to take advantage of the portals.”

Rodrey, who had been listening, said, “It used to take so much time to cross to the other side. That’ll be much faster now.”

The allies could use the enemy’s portals to ambush them. Things looked bright in Junhyuk’s eyes.

Sarang and Elise passed the minions and walked up to him. He looked at them and said, “The biggest change of all is that we can go see Bebe right away.”

“Right, we don’t always have time to go to the store. Now, we don’t have to worry about that.”

“Yeah, let’s equip ourselves before we head out.”

Everyone nodded. Junhyuk would have the minions join them after they finished their businesses with Bebe.

He looked at the portal inside the castle. It was different from the other five portals. It functioned only for visiting Bebe.

Junhyuk went through it and saw that Bebe was cleaning the shop. Bebe stared at him for a second before greeting him.

“I’m not done cleaning, but do come in.”

“You know it’s just the portal location that changed, not the store itself.”

“You should clean when things change.” Bebe had a big smile on his face, and he said again, “Come in.”

Junhyuk looked at Bebe suspiciously. Whenever heroes sold items, Bebe gained a lot of stock, which he sold to and made a lot of gold from other heroes. He thought it was possible that Bebe had lobbied to have the portal moved inside the castles.

“Can I see how much money I have first?”

“Certainly!”

Bebe showed him the plate, and Junhyuk placed his hand on it. The other members of his team also requested plates, so Bebe gave one to each of them.

Junhyuk’s plate said 3,947,463G, an exorbitant amount.

A satisfied smile appeared on Junhyuk’s face, and he pulled out the items he wanted to sell.

“Appraise these items for me.”

He pulled out the items he had picked up the previous time, the Red Dragon Gauntlet and Boots. He also pulled out the items dropped by the heroes who had crossed over into his dimension.

Bebe was a little surprised by the amount. He picked up one of the items from the heroes who had crossed into Junhyuk’s dimension and asked, “Did they want to kill you?”

Junhyuk stared at Bebe and asked, “How much does it cost to travel through dimensions?”

“A one-way ticket is 200,000G.”

Each one of those heroes had spent 400,000G to go after him. Junhyuk’s items were so great that they had spent that willingly. Each piece of his legendary set cost at least 2,000,000G.

He was still angry that they had crossed over however.

“Can anyone select an enemy’s dimension to cross over to?”

“Sure, but you need the coordinates of that hero’s dimension. You might be able to find that out from your helper in your spawn room.”

Junhyuk thought about going after Durandal, but spending the 400,000G to do it would be a waste.

“Tell me the price of these items.”

“Sure.”

While Bebe inspected the item, Gongon walked up and said jealously, “That’s so cool. I hope some heroes come visit me in my dimension!”

“It wasn’t good. There were too many of them.”

“He-he-he! I don’t need to worry about it. Dragons don’t interfere with other dragons, but I’m still a hatchling, so the adult dragons would want to protect me. My father and my Lord can deal with anyone.”

Junhyuk laughed hard. Considering the disposition of the dragons, it would definitely not be a good idea to attack a hatchling. Gongon, who was sucking on some candy, murmured, “You must be very happy…”

Junhyuk didn’t agree with Gongon, but in any event, he had earned a lot of gold.

“There are twenty-two dark energy items with an average price of 45,000G. The weapons are more expensive. I can give you 300,000G for each of them.”

Bebe was willing to give him 1,590,000 for all of the invading heroes’ items.

The yeti continued, “These three items are 80,000G, and the other two are 100,000G.”

The items Junhyuk picked up the previous round totaled 440,000G.

After that, Bebe looked at the Red Dragon set items.

“These two are set items, so I’ll give you 350,000G for each.”

That was a total of 700,000 for just two items.

“So, your total is 2,730,000G.”

Junhyuk had earned a lot of gold from that exchange. He had known his wealth was gonna increased significantly, but he was shaking a bit now.

“Do you have any Pure Golden Knight set items?”

“No.”

Junhyuk smacked his lips and said evenly, “Show me Dentra’s Magic Sword.”

“Oh! You want to buy it?”

Bebe was happy to show him the sword. Dentra’s Magic Sword was a wind elemental weapon. He could feel the wind energy by simply looking at it.

“How much is it?”

“That’ll be 3,700,000G.”

Junhyuk wanted to hold the sword, but Bebe grabbed his wrist and smiled at him, saying, “You are a great customer, but you may only look at it.”

Junhyuk smiled back and said, “I’ll pay for it then.”

“Good thinking!”

Bebe smiled brightly, but Junhyuk just shrugged and placed his hand on the plate. The 3,700,000G were removed from his account, but now, he was the new owner of Dentra’s Magic Sword.

Junhyuk could feel the wind energy at the tip of his fingers. From that, he realized that he would be able to control the wind on Earth, even if he couldn’t do anything like that in the Dimensional Battlefield.

Dentra’s swordsmanship loaded itself into his brain. There was no way of acquiring and practicing Dentra’s swordsmanship without that sword.

The new swordsmanship would work well on Earth. He had acquired a new type of energy.

“Give me five enhancement stones.”
