Chapter 513: Stronger Buff 1
Junhyuk took the portal and headed straight for Gongon. As he came out of the left portal on the allied side, he felt himself getting buffed. With the buff, his speed increased, and if he was lucky, he would catch up.
Sarang was with Helen. If Aktur went after her, she would fight with the watchtower at her back, but Gongon was alone.
While running, Junhyuk contacted the hatchling.
Junhyuk bit his lip and teleported while running. He used his three teleportations in a row while telling Gongon to fight with the protection of the watchtower. Gongon had his ultimate, which enabled him to fly, so he could escape Aktur if necessary.
The problem was that Aktur wasn’t alone. Junhyuk didn’t know who Aktur would join, but the hero would definitely be a vanguard.
Junhyuk wanted to save Gongon from death. He wanted to save his allies and win.
Even while on a streak, if his team became weaker, the victories would be meaningless.
While he was on his way, Gongon contacted him, “The wheeled hero and Aktur are here.”
“Stay alive until I get there. Retreat if you have to. Give up the watchtower if necessary, but stay alive.”
“Don’t worry on that point. I want to win without dying.”
Junhyuk teleported and replied, “It’ll take me thirty minutes to get there. Stay alive.”
After advising Gongon to stay alive, Junhyuk sped up. Ten minutes went by without Gongon contacting him, which meant the dragon had to be doing well. However, he sped up even more.
While running, he kept thinking. His critical hit rate was high, but that depended on where his enemies’ weak spots were. Where should he strike an android?
The undead’s heads were their weak spots, but Junhyuk couldn’t figure out where to strike the androids and robots. If he found that out, his contributions to the battle would change drastically.
He kept on thinking about how to kill his enemies. He had to try everything.
Gongon contacted him then, “I’m retreating now. I only have half of my health left.”
“Don’t get caught.”
“The wheeled hero is fast, but it won’t be able to kill me.”
Junhyuk inhaled deeply. He would fight Aktur in this round. Finally, he could see Gongon far in the distance. The heroes chasing him had over 70 percent of health. However, as they rushed by the watchtower, they lost some of that. Gongon had 40 percent of his health left.
Junhyuk’s eyes beamed.
The cooldown of his teleportations was over. As soon as Gongon saw him coming, the hatchling transformed. He used his ultimate to flee.
Gongon flew toward Junhyuk, turned around, and breathed out fireballs at the enemies. While his ultimate was active, he could attack from long range. Junhyuk passed by Gongon and closed the gap between himself and the enemy heroes.
Aktur looked at Edrol.
Edrol fired laser beams at Junhyuk, but he blocked the attacks and teleported. After getting close enough, Junhyuk triggered a Spatial Collapse.
Edrol was strong, but the strongest among the enemy heroes was Aktur. His Spatial Collapse was aimed at the mummy.
Aktur got sucked in by his power, and Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash.
The Spatial Slash struck Aktur’s head, the first real critical hit in a long time for Junhyuk.
The undead were weak against head strikes, so that’s where he had to strike for a critical. He had worried about the Perfect Evasion, but Junhyuk was lucky. His attack landed, and it was a critical. Aktur lost a massive amount of health, and Gongon breathed fireballs at him.
Boom!
After being attacked by Junhyuk and Gongon, Aktur faded, and Junhyuk pumped his fist.
Junhyuk had stacked hit chance runestones, and thanks to those, he had been able to kill Aktur.
But, Gongon’s attacks had hit as well, which meant that he had also been very lucky. The problem with Perfect Evasion is that the rate with which it triggered depended on the user’s luck. If the user had a high chance of triggering it, the attacks wouldn’t work. However, this time, Perfect Evasion had not worked.
Junhyuk turned to Edrol, who was now alone. Edrol released two massive beams at Gongon and him.
Junhyuk raised his force field since he knew the hero’s attack dealt continuous damage. Gongon was encased by the force field as well.
Edrol started to run away without looking back. At the same time, he ordered the minions to block the path of his retreat.
Junhyuk smiled and teleported. In an instant, he grabbed Gongon and chased after Edrol. The hero split into two robots and started running away in two different directions.
Junhyuk turned to Gongon and asked, “Can you catch him?”
“I won’t lose in a one-on-one fight.”
Gongon chased after one of Edrol’s halves, and Junhyuk chased after the other. He teleported and slashed at the hero. Edrol tried to dodge, but Junhyuk was swinging Aksha’s Longsword.
He could control the length of the sword at will. The process was very easy for him now.
His attack chased after Edrol, piercing the hero’s stomach. It was a critical hit.
Junhyuk paid attention to where he had hit to trigger the critical. Through the place he had pierced, he could see something shining inside Edrol’s stomach. It was Edrol’s core. It was what powered the hero.
Junhyuk knew were to attack now, so he did so ferociously.
Edrol pulled out a gatling gun and counterattacked. Junhyuk realized that half was the main Edrol, so he didn’t worry about Gongon anymore. The bullets bounced off his force field.
Junhyuk couldn’t get close while Edrol was shooting, so the hero was actually increasing the gap between them.
Junhyuk teleported. It was his last one.
When he appeared, he immediately stabbed Edrol’s stomach. His stab was quicker than Edrol’s speed.
The blade pierced Edrol’s midsection, and the hero’s eyes widened.
Smiling, Junhyuk said, “It’s too late to run away now.”
Junhyuk twisted his sword, and Edrol pushed him away, fleeing again. However, dodging Junhyuk’s sword attacks wasn’t easy. Edrol was fast, but Junhyuk could attack just as fast.
Before the force field was gone, Edrol disappeared.
Junhyuk picked up the item Edrol had dropped. Gongon had killed Aktur, so the two would discuss the loot.
Gongon walked up toward him having already figured out that the Edrol he had chased after had been a decoy.
“You saved me.”
“You saved yourself. We can start by taking advantage of this.”
Aktur had used his ultimate to give up the middle. By using the portals after destroying the first watchtower, the enemies would be able to move faster, but mounting a defense in the middle while taking advantage of the buff tower portal would be beneficial for the allies.
Junhyuk contacted Elise then, “Where are you?”
“We are pushing to the second watchtower, but Trarune and Blinka are already stationed there.”
“Don’t fight them yet. We just killed Aktur, so he can use his ultimate to head there immediately.”
“What should we do?”
“Head back to the buff tower and wait for us. We’ll move in that direction, kill a buff monster and then join you.”
Junhyuk wanted to kill a roaming buff monster first, but that would take some time. Still, he wanted to do it.
He turned to Gongon and asked, “Where are your minions?”
“They were either killed or are hiding.”
Junhyuk looked up at Nightmare Mountain. There was a forest next to it, which had to be where the minions were hiding. Now, however, there were buff monsters roaming the map, and they would definitely kill the minions instantly.
Looking at Gongon, Junhyuk said, “You can’t push through the tower by yourself with ease. Kill the enemy minions and look for the allied minions. After you gather them, destroy their watchtower.”
Even if only about fifty allied minions remained, Gongon would be able to destroy the enemy watchtower without problems.
Aktur and Edrol had chased after Gongon, but not the allied minions. If Gongon could round up the minions in hiding, they would help him significantly.
Gongon nodded and said, “OK. I’ll destroy their watchtower and take the portal, following you to the middle.”
“Do it.”
“See you later,” Gongon said to him. After that, the hatchling turned and shouted, “Any minions in hiding, come out! We won!”
Then, Gongon ran toward the enemy minions. The dragon meant to kill them all.
Meanwhile, Junhyuk took off. His task was to kill the buff monster. If he picked up a synthesis item as a result, that would be great.
“Come to me.”
Junhyuk was feeling confident in his new sword skills. He wanted to face off against the Mantis Lord.
