Chapter 581: Tough Victory 2
Junhyuk had reached Gongon, Elise and Helen, but when he saw the amount of health he had lost, he frowned. Diane was Diane, and her +20 bow had dealt him a lot of damage.
He was the only one who had been hit. The others were still at full health.
It was lucky that he had gotten there just in time, but he couldn’t relax. Halo was advancing toward him.
Junhyuk accelerated and scoped out the battlefield. Diane and Vera were covering the portal. Artlan was some distance in front of it, and Halo went right past Gongon, heading toward Junhyuk.
The enemy team could use the portal at any time. They had their strongest damagers set up around it, but they would only be able to retreat if the damagers stayed there.
Diane and Vera both had powers that could kill Junhyuk, and he had already died once facing those same enemies.
He used his Dimensional Slash, prioritizing Diane with his attack. A gash opened on her neck and blood spurted out of it. She vomited some blood as well before quickly getting back.
She wanted to take the portal out.
Halo slashed his chest, but Junhyuk barely felt the attack. Halo cut his back, but Junhyuk ignored his attacks while trying to use his Spatial Collapse. However, Diane was gone. She managed to use the portal before he could get to her.
Junhyuk clicked his tongue and teleported with the other allies toward Vera.
Boom!
Vera had read his mind. She had set a fire orb right where he appeared. Gongon was also hit by the explosion, and Junhyuk was left with only 30 percent of his health.
However, he still had a chance. The allies could also deal a lot of damage.
Halo was readying Rain from Above, and Artlan launched his sabers at Junhyuk. Thinking that the allies would get decimated, Junhyuk quickly raised his force field, which also pushed Vera away from the portal.
He swung Aksha’s Longsword, but Vera seemed to have an item that negated physical attacks once. He had to use that ability with his regular attacks before he could use a power against her.
Gongon also attacked Vera, but she blocked everything and started retreating. However, the allies did not give up chasing and attacking her.
Finally, her body was covered in flames. All physical attacks from then on were useless, but that’s when Junhyuk used his Spatial Collapse. Vera got sucked into the void, and Elise started casting her ultimate. Elise’s ultimate could also pierce through multiple heroes if they were in a line.
The allies thought they could kill Vera, but something changed then.
The portal shone brightly, and Nudra appeared. Nudra immediately pushed the force field back. Elise stayed within it, but the impact made her miss.
Gongon didn’t give up however. He enlarged, left the force field’s protection and heabutted Vera. She got launched back, and Gongon followed up with a firebreath against the enemy heroes.
Vera died, but things weren’t that good.
The allies only had three heroes there, and Halo’s Rain from Above, which took a long time to set up, crashed down on Gongon. The dragon had very high defense, but Halo’s ultimate was very powerful, and Gongon had already been hit by the fire orb’s explosion.
Junhyuk had to rescue Gongon, so he teleported. When Gongon noticed that he was inside the force field again, he used
As an adult dragon, Gongon attacked Halo, who was defenseless while Rain from Above was activated. He couldn’t even protect himself against a regular attack in that state.
Gongon blew a fireball at Halo, and Elise summoned Zaira. Junhyuk ran toward Halo as well.
The three heroes’ attacks hit Halo, but the enemy hero stood his ground. After that, Junhyuk ran back and shouted, "Get back to the watchtower!"
They couldn’t fight head on, but they could retreat to the watchtower. Elise started running back, but before they could reach the watchtower, the force field faded away. They were close, but the enemy heroes did not intend on losing their prey.
When the force field disappeared, Junhyuk scowled. The allies were all at lower health.
Seeing that, Nudra smirked and jumped, landing a drop kick on top of Junhyuk’s head.
Boom!
WIth Nudra’s gloves at +20, the damage was tremendous. Junhyuk lost the remainder of his 30 percent of health, so he shouted, "Do your best!"
Gongon nodded and continued toward the watchtower. Elise managed to reach it. Junhyuk looked back and saw Diane appeared through the portal again.
"Holy shit!" he shouted, and the world turned black around him.
—
In the harrowing void, Junhyuk once again focused on his Harmonizer. When he opened his eyes, he felt the energy within him had changed. With those two deaths, he had brought Harmonizer completely under his control.
Ariel had a worried look on her face while looking at him.
[You’ve died twice. This is really the final round.]
"It is. I’ve got goosebumps all over."
Junhyuk was astonished by the adrenaline of the battle. He had died twice. On top of that, he had managed to kill Vera, but he hadn’t picked up her item. That was a big loss.
He sighed and inspected his items. He had lost a gear. Those socketing items were hard to get, and that made Junhyuk feel sick.
"Whew! I need to join the group quickly."
There were four enemy heroes there. There was a limit to what his allies could do, so Junhyuk pulled out his swords.
[Hero Junhyuk Lee deployed!]
He exited the spawn room quickly and contacted Gongon.
"How are things?"
"We have the watchtower with us, but we can all die at any time."
Gongon had already used his powers, so now, he was in danger. He was fighting alongside the watchtower while waiting for his powers to return.
Junhyuk teleport, reappearing by the watchtower.
The watchtower was still up, but the enemy minions were attacking it, so it could be destroyed at any moment.
When Artlan saw him, he smirked, stepped forward and asked, "How are you back so fast?"
"We can’t just die here."
Sarang and Layla would be late, and he knew that. They weren’t used to climbing up the mountain.
Junhyuk raised his swords and checked things out. He decided to attack Diane, who was low on health.
She had the highest damage of the enemies. By killing her, the allies would have a chance.
Diane pulled on her bowstring while aiming at him. She was an assassin sniper now, so any of them could be killed by her.
Junhyuk hit first, a Dimensional Slash to Diane’s neck. After that, he teleported with the rest of the allies, reappearing before Diane. Elise immediately triggered her nullification field.
No powers would work now. Diane tried to retreat immediately, but Gongon gave chase. Whipping his tail around, he attacked Diane, who shot her arrows from close range.
Gongon was hit on the head, a critical hit, but he managed to kill Diane.
Junhyuk swung Aksha’s Longsword at Halo, but it was impossible to fight Halo at close range like that. Aksha’s Longsword didn’t hit once.
Relieved, Gongon said and asked, "Whew! Are we winning?"
"Not really, no."
The enemy champion was still alive, but Helen had been killed while Junhyuk was going through the void.
He looked at the remaining enemies and said, "We’ve killed their damagers, but now, we have to deal with hybrids."
"I know."
Junhyuk teleported again. He had to wait for his Dimensional Slash to return. He had his force field, but he didn’t want to risk putting his allies in danger.
He gathered his breath and said, "Just be careful, and we can still win."
Without Junhyuk there, Gongon and Elise would’ve been killed.
Junhyuk hid behind the watchtower while waiting for his Dimensional Slash. The Dimensional Slash would deal a lot of damage, but once it was back, the enemies would also have their powers back.
Still, the allies had the watchtower.
Artlan had his sixth sense, so he could dodge the Dimensional Slash. Junhyuk would leave Artlan for the other allied heroes.
"Elise, when can you buff us again?"
Gongon still had the buff, but Junhyuk didn’t. The buff’s cooldown was also very long.
Gongon had an arrow stuck to his head, so Junhyuk said, "You must be in pain, so I’ll pull it out."
Junhyuk pulled the arrow out, and Gongon screamed out loud, "You should’ve told me when!"
"I did tell you."
