Chapter 577: Chapter 576 - Final Round 3

Vera cast a gigantic fire spear, trying to deal the opening strike. Was Junhyuk wrong to think that the fire spear was bigger than before?

His own Dimensional Slash had had no effect, and he didn’t want to be struck by the spear, so he chased after Gongon, grabbed him and teleported behind Vear.

Boom!

Junhyuk had wanted to attack her from behind, but she had laid a fire orb like a mine to protect her back. Vera had expected that move from him, so when the fire orb exploded on him, Junhyuk scowled.

Yet, he did not retreat. He had a chance, so he decided to exploit that chance.

Junhyuk triggered a Spatial Collapse of Vera. She wasn’t able to dodge it this time, so she got locked in place while being damaged. However, at the same time he triggered his Spatial Collapse, Vera raised a firewall. Massive flames rose from the ground beneath him, and Junhyuk received even more damage.

He grabbed Gongon again and teleported to stand in front of Vera. He wanted to kill Vera while he had the chance.

She had lost 44 percent of her health from the Spatial Collapse. Considering Junhyuk’s attack stat, she had definitely raised her defense.

While she was being pulled by the void, she couldn’t settle on a stance. Junhyuk took that opportunity to stab her, and Gongon released his firebreath.

The breath covered an area shaped like a fan, and both Vera and Artlan fell within its range.

It was dealing a lot more damage than before now that Gongon’s weapon had been upgraded to +22, so it took a large chunk off of Vera’s health.

Junhyuk’s tab also went through. He didn’t know how much damage he had been able to inflict on Vera, but she died.

However, both Junhyuk and Gongon had lost healthy chunks of health. The fire orb’s explosion and the firewall had hit them both. Junhyuk had lost 45 percent of his health, and Gongon had lost 50 percent.

Artlan was heading toward them, so Gongon tried to headbutt him. However, Artlan used his jump power, dodging Gongon and heading for Junhyuk, who raised his swords toward the hero.

Junhyuk knew he couldn’t escape getting damaged, so he decided he would damage Artlan as well.

Clang!

When the sabers struck Junhyuk, he scowled.

He lost 20 percent of his health with that single strike. Meanwhile, Artlan lost only 7 percent of his health. That’s when Junhyuk realized just how high Artlan’s defensive stats were. Artlan was a tank now. He had enhanced his weapons to +20, so he was also a damager.

Artlan followed the jump with the seven-hit combo. His sabers danced toward Junhyuk, who knew Artlan was using his power and raised his force field immediately.

Clang!

Artlan pushed the force field back with his sabers and turned around to face Gongon, who block Artlan’s following combo attacks, but still lost 25 percent of his health.

The dragon only had 25 percent of his health left, so Junhyuk used his final teleportation to include Gongon in his force field.

Gongon’s firebreath had already hit Artlan and taken 35 percent off of the Hero’s health. With Junhyuk’s attack of 7 percent, Artlan had already lost 42 percent of his health.

Inside the force field, Gongon triggered his ultimate. After transforming, Gongon breathed out a huge fireball that headed toward Artlan. The hero couldn’t dodge it, but suddenly, an ice wall appeared in front of him to block the fireball.

Boom!

The ice wall was destroyed, but it had managed to block Gongon’s power. The dragon turned toward Kaigel and said, “He’s got useful powers.”

Gongon attacked Kaigel from long range, but Artlan blocked for the champion.

“Helen!” Junhyuk shouted.

Helen ensnared Artlan, and Junhyuk and Gongon attacked him while he was stuck. They needed to take care of the champion, but Artlan came first.

Junhyuk and Gongon both landed two hits on Artlan. Junhyuk dealt 14 percent of damage to the hero, while Gongon dealt 16 percent. Gongon’s damage was higher than his, but Junhyuk’s set had an effect that deal 3 percent of additional fixed damage to his opponents.

The 3 percent fixed damage was perfect against enemies with high health and defense.

Artlan’s health was low, but the hero regained his movement and slid on the ice road, getting away from them.

Gongon breathed another fireball at Artlan, and Junhyuk chased after the hero. He had used all of his powers, so now, he would have to focus solely on his swordsmanship.

He attacked Artlan with Aksha’s Longsword, but Artlan deflected his attack easily. Artlan was blocking both the fireballs and Junhyuk’s sword attacks, so Junhyuk decided to get in closer so that he would be able to use both of his swords.

An energy blade flew out and struck Artlan. That was Helen’s power, but it only dealt 1 percent of damage to the hero. Artlan was just like the tanks from legendary teams.

The hero stopped retreating on the ice road when Junhyuk’s force field faded away.

Artlan turned around wielding his sabers, but Junhyuk knew that Artlan had used his powers.

Suddenly, both Junhyuk and Gongon were encased in ice. They weren’t damaged, but neither of them could move, and Artlan was running straight toward them.

Junhyuk imagined something terrible happening.

Artlan was using his ultimate. The hero had two +20 weapons and was using his ultimate. Junhyuk was sure that he would die.

His mouth was dry. Artlan unsheathed his sabers and slashed. Junhyuk bit his lip expectantly, but someone appeared in front of him.

From where he stood, Junhyuk watched Helen get sliced in half. She had sacrificed herself for them. While fading away, Helen shouted at him, “Kill him!”

Junhyuk gathered himself. The ice disappeared, and Junhyuk tried to stab Artlan.

Clang!

All of Artlan’s powers, including his ultimate, were gone now, so Junhyuk thought that was his chance. His own Dimensional Slash was nearly back.

Gongon flew above Kaigel and came crashing down on the champion, breathing fire down on him, roasting Kaigel. After that, Gongon breathed fireballs behind Artlan to keep him from trying to retreat.

Artlan was circling Junhyuk, and Junhyuk hadn’t managed to strike the hero yet.

He wanted to fight with Gongon against Artlan. There was no way Artlan would be able to hand both heroes.

Right when he landed his first hit, Junhyuk used his Dimensional Slash. He thought his timing had been good, but Artlan still dodged his attack.

There was no time to be disappointed. Artlan’s saber was flying toward his neck. That was Artlan’s counter. Junhyuk cocked his head to the side, but he was still hit. He thought he had managed to dodge the attack, but it ended up being a critical hit.

It was possible he would die at any moment. Artlan was better with the sword than he was. Even with the Dimensional Battlefield restrictions, Artlan was better.

Junhyuk had absorbed more energy from the cores, and the amount of Harmonizer within him was full, but he was still restricted on the battlefield.

Junhyuk attacked Artlan with all of his strength. Gongon had returned to his original small size, but he attacked as well. Even in that state, Gongon’s attack damage was superb. Nudra had been the one teaching Gongon, and his attack stat couldn’t be ignored.

Artlan was under attack from two heroes. Gongon had the ability to deal the most damage, but Junhyuk attacked the hero ferociously.

Artlan smirked at him and shouted, “You can really fight!” Then, the hero jumped. He wasn’t trying to escape. Instead, he was coming down on Junhyuk’s head, stabbing the sabers down at him.

It was a power, so Junhyuk couldn’t escape the hits. It would be a critical hit, so he decided he would attack Artlan at the same time. Gongon launched an attack as well.

Slash!

Junhyuk lost 20 percent of his health, leaving him with 5 percent.

Artlan was left with 12 percent.

Junhyuk’s mouth was extremely dry then. He could die at any moment. Gongon was attacking Artlan, but Junhyuk was still nervous.

Artlan let Gongon’s attacks through, aiming to kill Junhyuk. At the same time, Junhyuk blocked Artlan’s attack, just barely. Artlan was smiling at him.

Artlan started to use his combo on Junhyuk, who realized the cooldown had to have ended. There was no way for him to block the attacks from the power.

Suddenly, from behind Artlan, a wave of flames went everywhere. It was Gongon’s firebreath.

Artlan, unable to launch into his combo completely, died, and Junhyuk sighed heavily, relieved.

“Whew! I could’ve died!”

“Next time won’t be this easy.”

It hadn’t been easy. Junhyuk felt like he had nearly died multiple times.

Vera had been killed first, but even then, the allies had been in constant danger because Vera had nullified the Dimensional Slash and read Junhyuk’s mind before she died.

He turned to Gongon and said, “Thanks!”

“I just did my job.”

Junhyuk smiled at him. Without Gongon, he would’ve certainly died.”

He looked around, and Gongon stepped forward and said, “I’ll clean up.”

The enemy minions were human, so Junhyuk was hesitant, and Gongon understood that.

“Wait,” Junhyuk said, shouting at the minions, “Stop!”

They all stopped. There were only a hundred allied minions and just as many enemy minions.

He turned to the enemy minions and said, “Run to the forest and stay there. Don’t just die like dogs here, and you’ll be able to return. If you show up here again, I’ll annihilate you all.”

The enemy minions bowed to him and ran toward the fore.

Gongon shrugged and said, “Let’s destroy the watchtower and take the buff tower.”

“The minions will destroy the watchtower. I don’t have any health left.”

The archers could kill either of them, so Gongon chuckled and picked up an item.

“The other one is yours.”

Junhyuk picked up the item Vera had dropped. With the items in hand, Junhyuk realized that the allies were winning.

Both Artlan and Vera had lost an item each.
