Chapter 383: Victory 1

Layla stared at him blankly and replied, “Isn’t that obvious?”

He had an awkward look on his face, but his helmet was hiding his face. Junhyuk wanted an ally who would help him become a legend, and Layla could help him even more than Halo would’ve been able to.

She could make an enemy use all of their powers on her, making her a big help. He wanted to know more about her powers and equipment, but she had already made up her mind to include him in her team.

Layla walked toward the center path and said, “In this battlefield, you are the only one I can choose.”

“Have you already made the rest of your selections?”

“No,” she replied, smiling bitterly. “Finding teammates is not easy.”

Junhyuk agreed with her. He wanted to be on a team with Gongon, but Gongon was the enemy now. It could be fate, but the situation was still bad.

He balled his hands into fists.

“Let’s just be thankful we met at least one member of our team. Let’s finish this.”

“Sure.”

He and Layla had attained the Wolf Warlord’s buff and headed out. They were heading center, a place they felt they had to control.

Gongon and his group hadn’t been detected yet, but Railic was already waiting in the buff tower with over three hundred minions. Among them, were the minions left by Junhyuk earlier. They seemed happy to see him, but he ignored them and looked at Railic.

“Nobody’s come yet? Have the others contacted you?”

Negative answers meant that the other paths had seen no hero presence either. Junhyuk scowled. If the enemies weren’t anywhere, there was only one place they could have gone to.

“They must have gone to kill the dragon.”

“What do we do?” Layla asked.

“Tell each side to go solo while we push center. Buffs last longer now, so we’ll end up meeting them with our buffs still.”

Things had been different before. He turned to Railic and Layla and said, “When we meet enemy heroes, kill the weaker ones and take their buffs.”

Everyone agreed. Junhyuk did not want to wait any longer, so he headed out, 3 heroes and 314 minions. They followed the central road and headed down. It was time for him to decide the battle.

While the group moved down the path, the enemy appeared. They were buffed, shining with five different colors. The enemy heroes were stationed at the second central tower.

Gongon was among them, and Junhyuk asked first, “Did you kill the dragon?”

“We needed the buff,” Gon answered calmly, and Junhyuk smacked his lips.

The dragon’s buff had a 30 percent movement speed boost. Because of that, the enemies had arrived at the tower before the allies.

Junhyuk inspected them one by one. He was trying to figure out who he should take the buff from. Meanwhile, Layla unsheathed her katana and said, “The one-eyed one with the huge arm, he can shoot spikes from his arm. His name is Kalta.”

Layla looked at one next to Kalta and continued, “That one can restrain you and regenerate health. The name is Pelt. Very annoying.”

Junhyuk looked at the hero without name, whom he met in the buff tower battle, and said, “Then, everything should be settled.”

He would kill the most bothersome enemy first. Stepping forward, he said, “I’ll steal the buff first.”

Railic didn’t understand what he was talking about and simply stared at him. Junhyuk was already running forward. He could attack from outside of the watchtower’s range, so Gongon shouted, “Attack!”

The enemies had brought two hundred gorillas with them. He saw them blocking his path and chuckled. Gongon had ordered them to charge at him, but he had already expected that.

Using the gorillas’ heads as stepping stones, he closed in.

“Keep him away!”

The enemy heroes distanced themselves from Junhyuk, but he was faster. Before the enemies dispersed, Junhyuk used his Spatial Collapse. His target was Pelt.

It was a critical hit, and Pelt disappeared immediately. The Spatial Collapse had an even higher damage than the Spatial Slash. The others were sucked into it and lost half of their healths. However, Junhyuk saw that Gongon wasn’t among them.

While Gongon had shouted, he had retreated, getting out of Junhyuk’s range. One had died, and two others were injured, but Gongon was fine.

Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash on the hero with the unknown name. The hero lost the rest of his health and disappeared as well. The shockwave hit Kalta, and his health was also almost gone.

Layla rushed by the gorillas like a bolt of lightning. With her rush, she could pass by the blocking gorillas with ease. She was so fast that it was like she left afterimages as she moved. It was something Junhyuk hadn’t seen.

Slash!

Kalta faded as well, and when Layla took his buff, Junhyuk smiled. Layla knew what she had to do. She would make a good ally for him. However, she was within the archers’ range, and they focused on her, so he shouted, “Retreat!”

Layla turned on the spot and started running back. She got hit by a few arrows, but she wouldn’t die from them.

Gongon grew and rushed toward her. He wouldn’t let her get away, headbutting her. It was an enlarged headbutt, and Layla lost 30 percent of her health. From that attack, Junhyuk understood that her defense was even better than Kraken’s.

He wanted Layla in his team even more.

Gongon tried a firebreath on Layla, but Junhyuk teleported and swung his sword at the hatchling. Nevertheless, Gongon dodged his attack and breathed fire on her. Layla lost another 25 percent of her health, and Junhyuk clicked his tongue.

“Layla, I’ll give you ten seconds.”

“OK!”

Junhyuk covered himself in his force field and attacked Gongon. The watchtower couldn’t help the dragon anymore.

As Junhyuk attacked, Gongon front kicked the force field. Junhyuk was launched back from the shock of the kick. Gongon was trying to buy time, and Junhyuk couldn’t let him be.

Railic extended his hand forward, and black energy shot out from his fingertips and wrapped around Gongon. Railic had gotten closer to the battle, and now he had constricted Gongon. That way, it would be better for the three to attack him at the same time.

With Gongon tied up, Layla stepped forward. She used her eight-hit combo.

Shing! Shing! Shing!

The eight strikes slashed deeply through Gongon, and he lost 20 percent of his health at once. Junhyuk closed in as well, slashing Gongon’s ribs and taking 9 percent of his health.

Layla used her ultimate.

It looked as though Layla was making a single movement, but she was actually striking multiple times. Her attack left four afterimages, so Gongon was struck by five slashes. Gongon lost another 25 percent of his health, astonishing Junhyuk.

Layla’s damage was higher than he had expected, which gave him some pause. While the three were attacking Gongon, Junhyuk had to be the one to deliver the final hit. However, that’s when Gongon used his ultimate and transformed into a full dragon. Flames shot out of Gongon’s body in all directions, and the dragon flew over the allies.

Junhyuk turned to look and saw Gongon dropping on Railic. Railic had black wings on his back, and he released a blast on Gongon while beating his wings.

Boom!

Gongon was hit, but he only lost 10 percent of his health. Then, Gongon shot fireballs out of his mouth. That was one of Gongon’s new abilities, and Junhyuk started to run.

Boom!

Railic got hit by the fireballs and lost 72 percent of his health. It was an absurd amount of damage.

Junhyuk thought Railic’s defense was crap, so he dove toward the hero. However, Gongon was already releasing more fireballs.

Railic got hit again, losing another 18 percent of his health.

Layla and Junhyuk were using the gorillas as stepping stones. Railic was struggling against Gongon, but Gongon spit out more fireballs.

Railic died, and Junhyuk was glad that he did. He couldn’t take the chance of Railic killing Gongon now. Gongon had lost way too much health. He only had 28 percent of his health left, so that was the start of the problem. Junhyuk had already used his Spatial Slash, so he would need two critical hits to kill the hatchling.

Gongon wouldn’t just die, so he had to seize the opportunity to pull it off. Meanwhile, Layla wasn’t worried at all.

She threw her katana forward, and the sword zoomed through the air and sank into Gongon. It had happened so fast that Gongon hadn’t had time to dodge.

Gongon grimaced while picking up the item Railic had dropped. That’s when Junhyuk teleported. Normally, he would’ve looked for an opening before teleporting, but things were different now.

Junhyuk stabbed Gongon’s stomach. The hatchling tried to escape, but his belly was rather large when he used growth, so he couldn’t do it. Gongon was left with 1 percent of his health, and Junhyuk walked toward him and swung the Frozen Rune Sword.

Gongon dodged, but Junhyuk accelerated at just the right time, reading Gongon’s movements and stabbing Gongon in the shoulder. The blade sank down to Gongon’s heart.

Gongon turned back to his regular size and started fading. Lying on the ground, he looked up at Junhyuk.

“Consider yourself lucky. You won here, but in my dimension, you wouldn’t have.”

“In your dimension, I wouldn’t have fought against you.”

Gongon laughed and disappeared. Junhyuk picked up his item and got up. The gorillas and the minions were having a bloody battle.

He said, “We need to clean up.”

“We need to pick up the items.”

The other two dropped items were among the gorillas now, and there was a time limit to pick them up.

“Let’s go!”

Layla had killed one enemy hero, so they both needed to pick up items. His dual swords and her katana made small mountains of corpses to each side of them.
