Chapter 374: Russia 1

After Gongon had changed into a full dragon, he shot fireballs out of his mouth. It was a regular attack, but his overall method of attack had changed. Previously, Gongon used to have a short-range regular attack, but now, it was long range. Junhyuk was completely surprised by that.

He was happy for the hatchling.

When they were damaged, the enemies were dumbfounded. Gongon’s transformation ignited flames around the battlefield, and the enemies were damaged by those as well.

While they were covered in flames, Gongon used his fireballs to further damage them.

The tank tried to attack Gongon, but the elf used his ensnaring power to tie him up. While the tank couldn’t move, Gongon focus-fired his fireballs on the assassin.

Suddenly, the assassin slinked into shadow. Sarang stepped forward to cast her electric blasts, and the assassin appeared behind her. She had expected that, so she cast a blast behind her as well, and the assassin was paralyzed.

The elf shot arrows at him, while Gongon shot more fireballs at the enemy champion. Sarang also cast her electric arrows.

While Gongon and Sarang were only using their basic attacks, the elf used a power. They continued attacking until the assassin faded away.

The assassin had dodged the Thunderstorm, but he was hit by every other allied attack, which was fatal to him.

Gongon extended his wings wide and flew in front of Sarang, shooting a barrage of fireballs at the enemies. After being hit, the damager frowned. It was a regular attack, but the damage was absurd.

Junhyuk muttered to himself, “That’s no longer a simple transformation. His attacks are much stronger.”

The tank was rushing toward Gongon, and the dragon opened his mouth wide. More fireballs came out, but the attack looked different from before.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang out, and the tank was thrown away like trash. Junhyuk’s eyes widened.

“When his ultimate is active, his other powers also change?”

That wasn’t one of Gongon’s usual powers, but something else. Gongon looked totally different, and his powers did as well.

“It doesn’t even have a cooldown?!”

Gongon had a new power, and while transformed, that power didn’t have a cooldown.

“Huh! So cool!”

Gongon could use all of his powers before using his ultimate to take complete advantage of his buffs.

The tank died, and the enemy damager ran away. However, Gongon chased after him and killed him as well. It had taken only one hero to change the flow of that battle.

Junhyuk sighed with relief.

“I earned some money from that. What’s the return?”

[Two and a half times what you bet.]

“Cool!”

Junhyuk had bet 200,000G. That meant that he would get 500,000G on top of what he bet, so he cheered aloud.

He wasn’t tense anymore. He simply followed the rest of the battle through Sarang’s eyes. The enemies knew Gongon was now a hero.

Gongon’s group moved moved through the lower path, and the enemies sent a single champion after them. The tank went to the second tower on the lower path, and the rest of them went toward the upper path.

The tank was trying to pull the enemies while the others attacked the upper path. The enemy champions weren’t concerned with defense. They were trying to survive and win.

Their plan wasn’t bad. The enemies’ movement speeds was very high. The damager and the attacker moved much faster than the other champions in the battle. However, Junhyuk was curious as to why the minions were moving that fast as well.

The allies reached the second tower and fought against the tank. At the same time, the enemies reached the second allied tower on the upper path.

While Junhyuk was looking at the minimap, he stuck out his tongue.

“Smart.”

Unless they destroyed the watchtower’s force field, they wouldn’t be able to kill the archers. The tank and the lizardmen went on defense, and the allies couldn’t pierce through them. Area of effect attacks did not work, so the allies had to kill the minions one by one.

Finally, the allies killed all of the minions along with the enemy tank. However, they lost their second upper tower.

“Push on!”

If they turned around now, they would be late to arrive at the castle. So, they took the surviving minions with them and kept moving. Only ten minions survived, but the allies should be grateful for them.

They should use the minions to destroy the castle’s gate.

Junhyuk looked at the enemy champions moving on the minimap. They were moving toward the allied castle.

Junhyuk checked on their speeds. Could the enemy tank block the allies again once they reached the castle? Could the enemy champions destroy the allied castle while that was happening?

The enemies had a lot of minions with them, about fifty. Fifty would be a big help in destroying the gate.

Junhyuk was astonished by the enemies’ speed. They reached the allied castle before the allies reached theirs.

“It doesn’t matter how many enemies you kill. What matters is how fast you can destroy the castle.”

The objective was to win, and the enemies were making the correct choice.

The allies had to stop them, but what to do? Should the allies return to their own castle?

The allies didn’t spend too much time thinking about it. Gongon said a few things, and the elf returned. Meanwhile, Gongon ran toward the enemy castle.

He dodged the enemy minions’ attacks and transformed, pouncing on the enemy tank. The tank bounced off, and Sarang joined the fight. She cast her Thunderstorm, and Gongon managed to finish off the tank.

Junhyuk looked at the minimap. There were two enemies at the castle, but now, there were more allied minion markers around the allied castle, more than enemy minion markers even. The allied minions crowded the castle parapet, and the elf loosened arrows from above.

Unless the enemies destroyed the gate, they wouldn’t be able to kill the archers, but what about the elf?

The enemies could attack the elf. However, as the enemies got closer to attack him, the elf reentered the castle, disappearing from view. Leaving the enemies to fall under the minions’ attacks.

The enemies were rushing toward the allied gate, but the allied minions easily outnumbered the enemy minions. The allied minions were doing a great job.

The elf was buying the allies more time. Meanwhile, the allies destroyed the enemy gate and went inside the castle.

At that moment, the enemy champions chose to return to their own castle. They had no other choice. The two were now standing in front of the giant golem, and all of their remaining minions were there. The number of allied minions was insignificant in comparison.

However, the allies were not in danger. Gongon was very confident.

The hatchling stepped forward, and the giant golem stood up. Gongon ran toward the enemies, and the giant golem tried to kick him. However, Gongon pierced through, deep within the enemy formation, and transformed, breathing fire across the area.

The enemies were completely covered in flames, and Sarang stepped forward. She cast electric blasts on the two champions, and they were paralyzed.

The allies were in the middle of the enemy camp, but they were moving about freely.

Sarang cast Thunderstorm, and Gongon changed into a dragon. Massive flames flew everywhere from his transformation, following right behind the Thunderstorm. All of the enemies hit by them died.

The dragon flew toward Sarang while spewing fireballs to deal with the giant golem. His long range attacks were better for that, and Sarang shot electric arrows to help him. The giant golem died.

The tank appeared within the castle’s force field, but he chose not to go out. Gongon scoffed at him and massacred the minions.

Sarang and Gongon focused on the castle’s force field. Victory belonged to them.

The castle force field was gone, and the allies won.

Gongon had a new power, but Junhyuk was curious about what kind of power it was, and how many other powers he had when he triggered it.

Junhyuk looked away from the battle, and Ariel giggled and raised her hand.

[You bet 200,000G. The 5 percent commission is 10,000G, so your net bet was 190,000G, earning you 475,000G. Another 23,750G are taken away from your winnings as commission and fees, so you’ll receive a total of 641,250G back. That amount has already been wired to your account.]

Junhyuk had earned a lot from a single battle. He could earn a lot more that way. However, he had no idea of who would actually win now. Gongon had left the team, and he couldn’t just bet on Sarang.

She needed more defense boosts, and the elf seemed weak.

“The fighting world is always harsh.”

Junhyuk actually thought about betting on the other side the next time. He turned to Ariel and asked, “When do we find out about new team?”

[The teams for the Champions’ Battlefield will be set next week. There are a few things to take into account, so it’s not immediate.]

“Yeah? OK.”

Junhyuk got up from his seat and fixed his gaze on Ariel.

“Can I return now?”

[Yes, I will see you next week.]

Her smile looked very cute, and she bowed to him. He felt the world around him change and he opened his eyes slowly. Junhyuk was back it the training facility.

There, he called Sarang and Gongon with his crystal orb.

Gongon was laughing joyfully.

“I’m a hero now!”

“I saw!”

“What?!”

Gongon was curious, and Junhyuk explained things.

“When I bet on you, they let me watch your match.”

“Yeah? Then, you saw me being awesome!”

“I did. Thanks to you, I watched you guys win.”

Gongon smiled.

“Can we be on the same team now?”

“I hope so.” Junhyuk smiled and continued, “That’s my wish.”

“Mine too. I’ll give you the 100,000G when I see you.”

“Sure.”

Turning to Sarang, Junhyuk asked, “Are you OK?”

She bit her lips and answered, “I had a hard time. Sigh… I won’t have Gongon next time.”

“That’s not a problem! I’ll bet on your enemies!”

“Big brother!”

“Just joking,” he said, smiling. Then, he looked at them both and added, “You did well.”

Sarang shook her head and said, “Big brother, I am very tired. I’m going to get some sleep.”

“Right.”

He disconnected with Gongon as well and yawned loudly.

“OK. Should I train some more?”

He would be flying to Russia the next day, but since he had some time at the moment, he should train. He pulled out his swords and jumped around nimbly.
