Gold and Silver Alchemist

chapter 102



The valley was much deeper than the surrounding plains.

The water depth reached a whopping 8,000 m.

And at the bottom of the valley there was a meadow with rainbow-colored grass and trees.

‘oh my god!’

Antelopes and zebras ran in herds over the meadow.

There were lions and leopards, hyenas and jackals.

I saw an eagle swimming with its wings spread.

In the valley of the deep sea, the sight of tropical grasslands spread out.

‘What is all this?’

Me and the golems moved in formation.

It’s because you don’t know if the wild beasts suddenly attack.

Rainbow-colored meadows stretched for tens of kilometers along the valley.

ping-

Kim Seo-yeon cut the grass with a greatsword and examined the cross-section.

Her eyes glowed golden.

He used an elixir to strengthen his eyesight.

[It’s 100% Orihalcon decision! Moreover, judging from the shape of the crystal, it is evident that it is growing!]

It wasn’t that someone processed orichalcon into grass.

Crystals, like crystals, were growing naturally.

[But animals and plants do not make up an ecosystem. They are not connected in the food chain.]

The herbivores here did not graze.

Beasts also did not hunt herbivores.

It was already known that lions do not have a digestive system.

It’s only a beast in appearance, but it’s not a predator.

The animals here did not harm each other.

[Come to think of it, you won’t attack us either?]

The lions who used to pounce on us now didn’t pay attention even when they saw us.

One of the twin golems opened its mouth.

[Is it because we are wearing Orihalcon armor?]

It made sense.

Wearing Orihalcon armor from head to toe, it seemed that the animals here regarded us as part of them.

Well, there is no need to take off the armor and check it.

It’s because the beasts didn’t attack.

The ultimate goal of coming here is to obtain Orihalcon.

Now that a stable supply route has been opened, you can gradually ask questions about this place.

[Let’s bring some Orihalcon while we’re here.]

[Yes, boss!]

swish-

swish-

The golems swung their greatswords and started cutting the grass.

There is no need to hunt animals, just cutting down grass will suffice to make armor and weapons.

cool-

I took out the arch and opened the teleportation gate.

hiss-

I passed through the gate and came into the 2nd factory.

There was an enormous water pressure of 800 times the atmospheric pressure outside, but the gate was completely blocking the water.

Kim Seo-yeon followed and weighed the pool she had saved and said.

“About 100kg of oryhalcon grass is growing in an area of 1m2! Since the area of the deep-sea grassland is about 100 square kilometers, you can get 10 million tons of orichalcon just by cutting grass!”

10 million tons, I don’t think there will be any worries about dropping Orihalcon in the future.

“For now, only cut 10 tons per person.”

“Yes, boss!”

.

.

.

Collected 60 tons of orichalcon.

It was an amount that could make 4,000 Greatswords of Destruction.

This should be enough for a while.

[Let’s go back.]

[Yes, boss!]

Shu Woo-wook-

He led the golems out of the valley.

Feeling the presence, I turned around and saw that the lions were chasing me.

‘Why are you suddenly chasing me?’

They drew out their greatswords and formed a defensive formation.

But the lions passed us by.

Their attack target was different.

A spherical object about 5 meters in diameter was approaching the valley.

Not one, but dozens.

[This is a submersible for deep-sea combat used by the US military!]

Kim Seo-yeon hacked the military secrets of powerful countries as if eating rice, and was quick to learn the specifications of state-of-the-art weapons.

The object was a ‘ultra-deep sea unmanned submersible’ capable of operating at a depth of 10,000 m.

It is equipped with self-driving AI, and several submersibles were able to perform high-level operations by exchanging data with sound waves and lasers and cooperating.

Of course, they were equipped with weapons that could be used in the deep sea.

Shu Woo-wook-

The submersible fired torpedoes at the lions.

Then a lion rushed in and bit the torpedo.

bang-

The torpedo exploded, and the impact pushed the lion dozens of meters to the ground.

However, I immediately centered myself and stood upright.

His Orihalcon scales were intact, with no scratches.

Shu Woo-wook-

Submersibles fired torpedoes at the lions in unison.

This time, the lions avoided the torpedoes without running into them.

I thought they were ignorant, but they had the ability to learn.

swish-

snap-

The lions attacked the submarine.

Submarines were torn apart like sheets of paper by their front kicks.

In an instant, dozens of submarines were all destroyed.

After lightly winning the battle, the lions returned to the valley.

[Wait here for a while!]

[Yes, boss!]

I needed to keep an eye on the situation here.

It was because the U.S. Army did not seem to be going to just leave like this.

just as expected,

Shu Woo-wook-

An object descended from overhead.

It was a spherical object, but it was not the submarine of a moment ago.

They were much smaller in size.

[This is a strategic nuclear weapon!]

Nuclear weapons technology has improved day by day, and these days, a nuclear warhead several times more powerful than the Hiroshima atomic bomb can be contained in a small chamber.

A 100-kt nuclear warhead is contained in a chamber falling overhead.

‘I knew this would happen!’

Most of the movies that fight aliens or giant monsters are ‘nuclear’.

When an unmatchable enemy appears, the U.S. military fires nuclear weapons at the last minute, and this was just such a situation.

Shu Woo-wook-

I moved at full speed toward the chamber containing the nuclear warhead.

The time was counting on the chamber screen.

<04:58>

In the next 4 minutes and 58 seconds, the nuclear bomb explodes.

Even if the core explodes, I don’t know if the Orihalcon creatures will die.

However, an explosion may cause the valley to collapse.

Then, there will be many difficulties in collecting Orihalcon in the future.

Therefore, the explosion must be prevented unconditionally.

hiss-

The entire nuclear warhead was put into the inventory.

Time doesn’t pass in the inventory, so the timer also stops.

You can keep it as it is and use it later, or you can <delete> if you don’t need it.

Anyway, I unexpectedly got a nuclear weapon.

Shu Woo-wook-

Another nuclear warhead fell overhead.

Shu Woo-wook-

Shu Woo-wook-

It wasn’t just one, it was several.

When the first nuclear warhead misfired, it was poured like crazy.

It was a low-explosive nuclear weapon, but it was capable of blowing up a city with one shot.

If such a large amount of water explodes, it is natural that marine life in the vicinity, such as whales and tuna, will be wiped out, and the sea will be contaminated with radioactivity.

People all over the world are under stress because of the Fukushima nuclear accident in Japan.

We must stop the crazy nuclear attack of the U.S. soldiers.

The only way to do that is to get rid of the aircraft carrier.

I ordered the golems.

[Collect all nuclear warheads in your inventory!]

[Yes, boss!]

Shu Woo-wook-

The golems moved at breakneck speed, inserting chambers containing nuclear warheads into their inventories.

Meanwhile I ascended at full speed toward sea level.

Shu Woo-wook-

The ship’s bottom of an aircraft carrier was visible in the distance.

The most exhilarating way to deal with the aircraft carrier is to return the nuclear warhead as it is.

If you take out a nuclear warhead from your inventory and use it, you can turn an aircraft carrier into powder.

But I can’t do anything that pollutes the sea with radioactivity like they do.

‘Let’s not use nuclear weapons.’

pooh-

He came out of the water while hiding himself with invisibility magic.

And landed on the deck of an aircraft carrier.

hiss-

I took the explosives from my inventory.

It was an explosive made from sea salt.

With 1 kg of this, underground research facilities in China were buried in the ground.

10 kg would be able to sink an aircraft carrier into the sea.

‘for a moment···.’

Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind.

‘Isn’t this a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier?’

If the power engine of an aircraft carrier is nuclear power, the sea will be polluted if it is just flooded.

I sent a telepathic message to Kim Seo-yeon to confirm the aircraft carrier’s engine type.

[The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier is equipped with two A4W reactors!]

After all, it was a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

[Where is the nuclear reactor installed?]

[It’s in the engine room on the lowest floor of the ship. I’ll show you the blueprint!]

Telepathy allows you to communicate not only audio but also visual information to the other person.

As I concentrated, I saw the blueprints of an aircraft carrier.

That’s how I figured out the location of the engine room.

hiss-

Came down the deck through the stairs.

And passed the fighter hangar and came down to the bottom of the aircraft carrier.

Then it moved aft and finally reached the engine room.

There was a nuclear reactor there.

It was a cylindrical reactor several meters in diameter and several tens of meters in height.

If it breaks, it will cause much greater pollution of the ocean than if a strategic nuclear weapon exploded.

The reactor was quite large, but not too big to fit in the inventory.

hiss-

You put a whole reactor in your inventory.

‘delete.’

And immediately use <Delete> to destroy it.

hiss-

The rest of the reactors were also put in the inventory and deleted.

Wheein-

As the reactor disappeared, the turbine engine, which lost its heat source, slowed down.

After a while, the propeller stopped completely.

The aircraft carrier has lost power.

‘Let’s sink it safely now!’

I sprayed explosives all over the engine room.

Then it got out of the carrier.

‘Explode!’

bang-

The aircraft carrier tilted with a tremendous roar.

And it sank into the sea at high speed.

**

The U.S. Department of Defense is in an uproar.

This is because an aircraft carrier was sunk in Bermuda waters.

“It must be the Chinese!”

The president of the United States was also here.

The idea of using nuclear weapons was the first thing that came out of his mouth.

“The Chinese shot down our aircraft carrier!”

At the president’s words, the head of the Defense Research Projects Bureau shook his head.

“Didn’t His Excellency also see the lion-shaped monster?”

“It’s a Chinese-made robot!”

“I don’t think China has that level of technological prowess.”

“Then what? Are you saying we were attacked by aliens?”

Then, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency cautiously opened his mouth.

“There is a high probability that they were attacked by the Atlanteans, not the aliens. I was there to investigate it in the first place.”

The president shook his head.

“Because they are Chinese! Those sneaky bastards are building military installations in the sea close to our mainland!”

This is why the president used nukes.

This is because if China is carrying out a secret project, it cannot complain to international authorities even if it is struck by nuclear weapons.

However, all of the nuclear warheads were misfired and, conversely, the US aircraft carrier was sunk.

The president had a blood band erected on his neck.

“How much does a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier cost? 80 fighter planes have also been drowned!”

The scale of damage to the US military from this incident was astronomical.

“If you just let it go like this and lower your tail, it’s not America! Let’s give the Chinese guys a big blow!”

Choi Min-hyuk shook his head at the president’s remarks.

‘After all, they weren’t the ones to just stop.’

Choi Min-hyeok had been hiding in the U.S. Department of Defense from a long time ago and eavesdropping on the conversations of the top officials.

I didn’t go back to Korea right away because I didn’t know, but I stopped by here.

But as expected, they were waiting for the next attack.

Choi Min-hyeok had to protect Orihalcon Grassland from them.

kiik-

The President pushed back his chair and stood up.

“Let’s take a break and talk about how to get revenge on the Chinese guys!”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

The president went out of the conference room.

Minhyuk Choi quietly followed him.
