Junhyuk inspected his swords and said, âThe damage is great and all, but the set effect is where they really shine.â
âWhat is the effect?â
âWith the complete set, my critical hit rate increases by 10 percent.â
Landing a critical hit was difficult. He had to land the strike just in the right spot, but in the Legendary Battlefield, that was almost impossible to do.
Junhyuk had received that set effect for free, so he was happy. His weapons were now a legendary set of their own, and they also dealt enormous damage. If he had been able to deal that much damage when he had just become a hero, he wouldâve killed all of his opponents with regular attacks.
Considering the enemiesâ defenses, his damage wasnât the highest, but with the twenty upgrades, it was definitely high.
Junhyuk turned to the others, and everyone tried upgrading their items. Layla, Sarang and Gongon succeeded, and their weapons were shining rainbow colors. They hadnât gotten all of their items to +20, but their weapons were all there.
Eliseâs chest piece was shining rainbow, and so were her greaves. She had upgraded both items, which were both defensive pieces. They were necessary to boost her defense and magic defense, making her a true tank.
Looking at the allies, Junhyuk said, âLooks like we are done. Letâs go.â
Everyone nodded and headed off for the battlefield. Junhyuk took 150 minions with him. The enemy minions were the gillette men, assassins with blades for arms, so the allied minions would be at a disadvantage. However, Junhyuk didnât think the victory would come down to the minions. This was a battle between legends, and they would decide the victor.
He climbed up the middle path and frowned, saying, âI have to memorize the path again.â
Gongon smacked his lips and replied, âThatâs too bad. Youâll have to run around a lot this round.â
âI need to check on something first.â
He touched Gongon, who was on Eunseoâs back, and teleported. He was able to use his Dimensional Shift to get behind the formation.
Smirking, he said, âThe Dimensional Shift has improved. I can teleport with others now.â
âThatâs great!â
Junhyuk used his Dimensional Shift again and returned to Eunseoâs side.
âGon, should we pick up the pace?â
âJust the two of us?â
âYeah. We can destroy the enemy tower before they get there that way.â
Junhyuk couldnât do it alone, but with Gongon, the watchtower would certainly fall.
The hatchling smirked back and said, âOK. Letâs go.â
Junhyuk looked at Eunseo and said, âTake command of the minions. Weâll go and destroy the tower.â
Junhyuk rushed out with Gongon, teleporting along the way, enabling him to get there much faster than their enemies.
When he and Gongon reached the top, the enemies were nowhere to be found, so Junhyuk turned to Gongon and said, âConsidering the enemiesâ damage, we should rotate as tanks.â
Gongon smirked and said, âDonât worry. I can deal twice as much damage now because of my set effects.â
âYour set can do that?â
âIâm the strongest!â
âThen, you take lead first.â
Junhyuk ran forward and used both his Spatial Collapse and his Dimensional Slash against the watchtower. When he fell within the archersâ range, they shot at him.
Junhyuk kept attacking the tower itself, and Gongon headbutted and punched it.
Gongonâs claws were shining rainbow, and each time the dragon attacked it, a large chunk of the tower was taken away. Gongon could destroy the watchtower by himself.
Boom!
Junhyuk was attacked three times before retreating, but Gongon brought the watchtower down. It was destroyed, and Junhyuk was stunned.
âYour ability to siege is an art form.â
âRight?!â Gongon smirked and asked, âCan you recover?â
The enemies werenât in sighet yet, so with some time, he would be able to recover. He looked far below, searching for the enemies as he waited.
Junhyuk saw Keros and Tuelus climbing the mountain, and the heroes were bringing two hundred minions with them.
While staring at them, Junhyuk cracked his neck. It would be another hour before they reached the peak of the mountain, so he told Gongon, âWait here. Iâll go use the portal so that I can remember locations.â
âThatâs a good idea. Donât be late.â
âSure.â
Junhyuk took the portal to the left path, where Elise was. He memorized the place and, an hour after that, he reached the left watchtower, way before Elise had. There, he used his Dimensional Shift to return to the top of the mountain.
Gongon had already occupied the buff tower.
When he appeared, he saw the enemies already at the top of the mountain. Keros was a single-horned beast, and Tuelus a handsome man.
Tuelus was a damager, and Keros, with his broadsword, was a hybrid damager-tank.
When Junhyuk had first met them, he hadnât been able to damage Tuelus at all, but now, things were different. He was a legend now, and his items were as good as the enemiesâ.
Tuelus and Keros both had weapons shining rainbow, which meant that they were at least at +20. However, if they had only gotten to +20, Junhyuk damage would still be higher.
With the buff tower occupied, Junhyuk recovered all of his health. He unsheathed his swords and stared at his enemies, saying, âLong time, no see.â
Keros and Tuelus looked at each other puzzled and said, âWe donât remember you at allâ¦â
Junhyuk laughed and replied, âWhen we fight, youâll remember me.â
He looked a Gongon, who was prepared for battle. Even his powers triggered his setâs effects, so Junhyuk inhaled deeply and said, âLetâs begin.â
Keros motioned with his hand, and the enemy minions rushed toward him and Gongon. When the enemy heroes told him they didnât know who he was, Junhyuk decided to attack them first.
He aimed for Tuelus. Kerosâ attack was high, but Tuelus was incredibly damaging. His attack stat was outstanding even among legends. On top of that, his weapons were now at least to +20.
Junhyuk used his Dimensional Slash, and a fountain of blood spurted out of Tuelusâ neck. The hero lost 48 percent of his health.
Previously, the most Junhyuk had been able to deal Tuelus had been 1 percent of damage, but now, he had beaten the crap out of the hero with a single Dimensional Slash.
His equipment was certainly different from before.
Junhyuk followed it up by teleporting to Tuelus. He wasnât trying to save any of his powers. After he quickly closed in, he triggered his Spatial Collapse.
Craaaaack!
Tuelus was a legend now, but even then, he died. Junhyuk had used all of his attack powers on the legend, leaving him speechless.
âWhat the hellâ¦?!â
âTalk later.â
Junhyuk slashed at Keros, who had just watched Tuelus die, but Keros blocked the attack with his own sword. The ground beneath Junhyuk shattered in a fan-like pattern. That was one of Kerosâ powers.
Junhyuk teleported, evading Kerosâ massive shockwave. The enemy swung at him again, but Junhyuk simply smiled at Keros.
Kerosâ broadsword was destructive, but Kerosâ movements were just like Haloâs. Knowing that, he knew that he could fight Keros.
Junhyuk deflected the broadsword and countered. With his new foresight ability, he had even managed to deflect Haloâs sword.
He could guess Kerosâ movements now, so none of the attacks were getting through.
Kerosâ eyes widened, and Junhyuk slashed him across the ribs.
Keros scowled. The attack triggered an extra attack and stacked two debuffs on the enemy legend. Kerosâ attack speed and defense both dropped. At the same time, Gongon enlarged and headbutted Keros.
Boom!
Keros blocked Gongon with his broadsword, another one of his powers. He could decrease the damage he received and reflect it on the attacker.
Gongon lost 8 percent of his health, but Keros lost 6 percent. When that happened, Junhyuk remembered Kerosâ reflect damage.
Kerosâ defense stat might be even higher than Gongonâs.
Keros struck Gongon with his broadsword, and Junhyuk slashed at him. He wanted to debuff Keros even more.
Keros lost more attack speed, so Junhyuk slashed him again across the ribs. Junhyuk was lucky, and the attack landed as a critical hit. Keros lost another 12 percent of his health.
Considering his attack power, Junhyuk was disappointed with the damage he was doing. However, the battlefield was a cold and pragmatic place.
Keros knew he was in danger. He was having to fight against too, so Keros boosted his movement speed and started heading for the portal. However, Junhyuk grabbed Gongon and teleported with him to block Kerosâ way out.
Kero swung his broadsword at Junhyuk, and the blade shattered. Immediately, Junhyuk raised his force field.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
That was Kerosâ ultimate, the sword explosion. Junhyuk had blocked the attack, but he was still pushed back. Keros took the chance to run toward the portal.
âWhere do you think you are going?!â
Gongon, who was a full-fledged dragon now, spit out a massive fireball.
Boom!
Keros was thrown off course, and Junhyuk kept attacking him from long range.
âDie!â
Junhyuk, still with his force field around himself, ran forward. Keros scowled and attempted to retreat, but Gongonâs barrage never stopped.
With their combined attacks, they killed Keros.
Junhyuk sighed, relieved. He ended up not figuring out the enemiesâ set effects.
âItâs better this way.â
