Chapter 543: Danger 1
Junhyuk had sent Ganesha because he wanted to act immediately, but the enemies were powered people, so he knew Ganesha wouldn’t last long.
Elise told him the enemies were experts
He didn’t know where those experts had come from, but right now, he didn’t care.
Junhyuk had been hit by the tail. His body had changed after absorbing core energy, so he had been able to withstand the hit. He had stood in front of Elise at the time of the attack, which was why he was hit.
When he was hit, he felt like his body was being crushed. The hydra was shaped like a dragon, and that single physical hit felt, to him, like he had been run over by a train.
Junhyuk bit his lip, launched back by the impact. While he was flying off, Elise’s nullification field faded. The hydra realized that, and each head readied its breath at the same time.
Junhyuk already knew how strong one of the hydra’s breaths was, but he couldn’t raise his force field around it now.
He couldn’t allow four hydra breaths to go off simultaneously. If that happened, Jeju Island could disappear from the map.
Junhyuk scowled, unable to think of what to do, but at that instant, an electric blast slammed against the hydra, paralyzing it and cancelling the breaths.
Junhyuk teleported toward the hydra and slashed at the black head, which had already lost its lower jaw.
Clang!
He realized then just how strong the hydra’s scales were. He didn’t have enough strength to cut through them with regular attacks. Clicking his tongue, he infused his sword with Harmonizer.
Once the sword was coated in it, Junhyuk swung at the black head again, who was now able to move. However, even able to move, the black head failed to dodge, so Junhyuk chopped it off.
Harmonizer was even stronger than a mana blade.
Junhyuk sliced the head clean off and swung again. The hydra’s scales all stood up in response. Each scale was as tall as him, but Junhyuk swung against them.
With Harmonizer, he was able to easily slice through them. Junhyuk flew toward another head, but suddenly, the hydra disappeared. Junhyuk was surprised when he saw the hydra preparing another breath far away from him.
He had forgotten. Dragons were the originators of magic, and the hydra was able to cast spells instinctively.
The name of the spell the hydra had cast was called Blink. It was just like his teleportation, so attacking it would prove difficult.
Jeffrey extended his hand then, and a whip of energy shot out from his hand and wrapped itself around the hydra. The hydra was stuck was once, and Jeffrey pulled it toward him. Seeing that, Junhyuk cheered aloud and slashed at the hydra again.
As long as the hydra was paralyzed, he could kill it. The heroes’ powers were working against it, paralyzing it. With Harmonizer coating his sword, Junhyuk slash. He aimed for one of the hydra’s necks, but Jeffrey’s stun didn’t last that long. Junhyuk injured the neck but failed to behead the hydra, who swung its tail at him.
Junhyuk immediately spun Aksha’s Longsword, raising the sword shields.
The tail attack was a simple physical attack, but it shattered the sword shields.
Junhyuk stepped back, and powerful energies coalesced around the hydra.
“This is too much.”
The hydra could cast spells, and it had a lot of energy surrounding it.
First, it cast a beam of lightning that turned into a lightning storm. The hydra was casting all of that without any delay. After that, hellfire.
Junhyuk looked at the two spells headed for him. He gathered his breath then and made use of his full strength.
He released the energy within his blade toward the lightning storm. Harmonizer pushed through the air, displacing it in a way that cut through the lightning storm.
Craack!
Junhyuk pushed through the opening he had cut in the storm and released a wind blade to black the hellfire. If he had tried to destroy the incoming hellfire, the debris of the explosion would’ve destroyed the mountain below.
He had to block it and shut it down, but the hellfire wasn’t a single strike.
Junhyuk blocked it as best as he could. When the dimensional tear appeared, the civilians had all evacuated to shelts, but the shelters wouldn’t withstand the shock of the hellfire.
The other heroes stepped in to block the fire, but they couldn’t deflect it up to the sky like Junhyuk. Two licks of the blaze exploded. One crashed into the ocean, but the other landed on a highway.
Boom!
There was a huge explosion, and the highway disappeared.
At that moment, Junhyuk realized how powerful the hydra really was and became furious at the manager who had loosed the hydra on Earth. He repressed his anger toward Eltor at the moment, flying toward the hydra.
The hydra flew straight up, and everyone flew after it. Once all of them had gathered below it, the hydra turned and readied another breath.
Junhyuk scowled and checked his powers. His force field was still under cooldown. There was no way he could block it now.
He had to direct the breath somehow. Even Harmonizer wouldn’t be enough to help him do it.
Three breaths were released: a fire breath, a lightning breath and a cold breath.
Junhyuk scowled when he saw them. They were all incredibly strong.
He decided to maximize the energy release of Harmonizer. The hydra relied on core energy. He had evolved that energy into Harmonizer. There was no reason for him to be pushed by it.
Junhyuk infused both of his swords with Harmonizer and swung them at the breaths. He knew he wouldn’t have been able to stop the breaths as his former self, so he needed something new. He thought about his swordsmanship and choose a unique defensive technique.
Junhyuk created a sword shield, but Harmonizer was being used to increase the revolutions of the wind energy of the shield, creating something akin to a hurricane wall.
The breaths collided against it.
Boom!
Junhyuk did not have his feet planted on the ground, so while the shield endured the shock, he was pushed back until he landed.
However, the breaths were still going. Now on the ground, Junhyuk took the chance to increase the size of the sword shield.
He spun it even faster, and the sword shield held. It took a while, and he felt that Harmonizer within him had been significantly depleted, but the breaths were over.
The hydra was not able to use its breaths constantly, but Junhyuk was in a precarious state. The hydra was diving toward him now.
He smiled when he saw that.
His Spatial Collapse was still under cooldown, but the Dimensional Slash was back. However, he knew that even though Artlan couldn’t sense his attack, the hydra could. He had to destroy the hydra’s heart. Otherwise, the battle would drag on.
Looking at the hydra, Junhyuk shouted, “Can you two keep it locked down?”
Sarang looked at Jeffrey, who nodded and said, “I’ll take first crack.”
“Then, I’ll do it after you.”
Jeffrey sent his energy whip to constrict the hydra. While the hydra was being pulled, Junhyuk accelerated and used his Dimensional Slash straight at its heart.
The heart was cut in two, and Junhyuk smiled. The hydra regained its movements, and Junhyuk was left surprised. He had thought that things would’ve been over with the destruction of the heart, but the hydra simply tail whipped him.
Clang!
Junhyuk blocked the attack with his swords, but he felt the impact through his body. The attack also launched him away. Sarang shot her electric blast at it, paralyzing the hydra. All of the heroes attacked it then. The champions did too, but the hydra simply whipped its tail once it could move again.
Regular attacks wouldn’t work. Only powers would. Junhyuk’s Harmonizer was the only thing effective against it.
Junhyuk pulled himself up and stared at the hydra. He had used most of the energy within him, but he had to do something.
The hydra was preparing to cast a spell, and Junhyuk bit his lip.
Sarang tore another scroll then. The torn scroll released an electric blast, and the hydra was paralyzed again.
Thinking of that as his chance, Junhyuk took the last bit of his Harmonizer and accelerated.
The hydra’s heart had been split in two, but it was still moving. He had to come up with another way to take it down. He closed in. The amount of Harmonizer within him was low, so he couldn’t use his Dimensional Slash.
He pressurized the remaining harmonizer within him, turning it into an energy orb. It flew toward the hydra and slammed against its red head.
Craaack!
That marble-sized energy ball destroyed the hydra’s head, but suddenly, his own head started spinning. He had overused Harmonizer.
“Shit!”
Junhyuk fell to his knees while staring at the hydra. The tiny ball of energy was gone, but the hydra still had two heads left.
