Beep-Beep
As soon as Anon placed the Magic Crystal over the Movent Trigger, a faint beeping sound emanated from the box.
"Mr. Jule, what are you doing? What if the missile targets us? We can't even stop them," Faith began to say, but before she could finish her sentence, they heard another sound.
Shhhhhh
Anon and Faith turned their attention to the source of the noise, which was rapidly approaching them.
"Mr. Jule, it's a missile," Faith said, pointing at the incoming threat.
'I can't sense them coming towards . They're working beyond magic... They're dangerous,' Anon thought as he stood up.
"Mr. Jule, what are you doing? We have to run. That thing will kill us," Faith pleaded.
"Well, well... Only the shell of these missiles is made of pure Travertine. The explosive powder inside them remains the sa," Anon explained before closing his eyes.
"Mr. Jule, please, we have to—" Faith's sentence was cut short as a white aura enveloped Anon's body.
Hup
Anon leaped off the Raven's back, landing safely on the ground. The missiles adjusted their trajectory in response to Anon's movent.
"My, my... I want to et the person who invented these damn things," Anon said with a smile, observing the four missiles approaching him.
Boooooom
Booooom
Booooom
Booooom
All four missiles collided with Anon, creating a fiery explosion in the vicinity.
"Noooooo... Mr. Jule!" Faith shouted as she quickly dismounted the Raven and ran toward the inferno caused by the missile collision.
Faith reached the spot, crying out, "Please don't be dead... Please don't be dead..." and to her relief, she soon spotted a figure erging from the fire.
Cough-Cough-Cough
It was Anon.
"Hello, Luv," Anon greeted with a smile as he looked at Faith.
Faith imdiately embraced him and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Sob-Sob I thought... I lost you too," Faith sobbed.
"Don't worry, Luv. I won't die that easily," Anon reassured her.
"Why would you do sothing like that? And how did you even survive?" Faith inquired.
"Well, just magic," Anon replied with a smile as he hugged her.
'The explosive powder inside these missiles isn't that potent... The pure Travertine shell isn't impervious, but I can still feel that one or two bones might have broken when these missiles hit . I need a weapon made of Travertine to withstand such attacks,' Anon contemplated.
"I tracked down the location where these missiles ca from," Faith inford.
"Good... Let's go," Anon replied as he carried Faith in his arms and mounted the Raven.
Caawwwww
The three-eyed Raven obediently took off, following Faith's directions.
After an hour of flying, Anon and Faith arrived near a waterfall.
"I don't see anything here," Anon remarked.
"But according to my skill, the missiles were launched from this exact place," Faith explained.
"Are you sure? Can you pinpoint the exact location?" Anon inquired.
"Yes, just wait a minute," Faith replied as her eyes emitted a green glow while she focused on the waterfall.
Suddenly, a shocked expression appeared on Faith's face.
"What's wrong? Do you see sothing?" Anon asked upon noticing her expression change.
"It's inside the waterfall, I can see it," Faith revealed.
"Well, let's go," Anon ordered the Raven to approach the waterfall.
Cawww
The three-eyed Raven complied, descending toward the waterfall.
"Co," Anon said as he took Faith's hand, and together they leaped into the waterfall.
As they erged on the other side, they found themselves inside a cave. The ancient cave was filled with spiderwebs, and torches were mounted on the walls.
"Wait... This place, I rember it," Faith said.
"How is that possible?" Anon asked, puzzled.
"Yes, I've been here with my father when we were very young. My father was friends with a dwarf nad Fang Juker. He used this place as his lab to construct various weapons. I always thought he was mad," Faith reminisced.
"Why didn't you ntion this when we were outside?" Anon wondered.
"Well, I was only five years old then. We always arrived here in a closed carriage without windows, and there was no waterfall at that ti. This place must have beco concealed by enchantnts after his passing," Faith explained.
"How do you know he's dead? Maybe he's still inside the cave?" Anon suggested.
"It's not possible. He was 2,000 years old when I was five... He must have passed away a year or two after that," Faith replied.
Beep
A sudden beeping sound, similar to that of the movent-triggering box, interrupted their conversation.
"What's that sound?" Faith asked.
"I'm not sure," Anon responded, using his scan skill to inspect their surroundings, but he couldn't detect anything.
"Look, there's sothing shining over there," Faith pointed to a dimly lit area in the corner of the cave.
[Light]
Anon activated his skill, creating a small circle of light over his finger, illuminating the entire cave. The source of the light revealed a shocking discovery.
A massive missile-launching cannon stood in front of them with twelve missile launch ports, six filled with missiles and six empty. Attached to the missile-launching cannon was a device resembling the movent-triggering box, but it had only one piston and a smaller magic crystal on top.
"A receiver..." Anon remarked as he approached the device.
"Wait, Mr. Jule, it could be dangerous. What if it fires a missile here?" Faith cautioned.
"Don't worry, it won't launch any missiles unless this box receives a signal from the device that sends the movent-triggering ssages. I now understand that this magic crystal is a component or broken part of the sa crystal that was placed on the movent-triggering box, enabling them to send and receive signals seamlessly without any problem of distance between them.
This motherfucker used Quantum Physics to build this thing... He is one genius Dwarf. Using, Quantum entanglent in this sort of thing." Anon explained as he touched the device and noticed sothing unusual.
"What is Quantum Physics, Mr. Jule ? Is it like the ancient Quantum Magic ?" Faith asked with a confused expression.
"Yeah, sothing like that." Anon replied.
'Even I don't understand Quantum Physics that much, why are you asking ?' Anon thought.
Upon moving the device, Anon discovered a large tallic door concealed behind the missile-launching cannon.
