Chapter 149: Chance of Victory 1

Translator: – – Editor: – –

Junhyuk ran after Kaljaque. He had already made a promise, and Kajaque had 60 percent of his health left. That time, he could die.

Lugos hadn’t used his powers yet.

Junhyuk was running while Kaljaque was hit by Gyulsean’s arrows, but he kept going. Because Junhyuk was running behind Kaljaque, he wasn’t hit by any arrows.

Gyunsean didn’t rush, so Kaljaque was able to do it. He ran full throttle, and Lugos stood in front of him. He started swinging his four weapons, and his body turned black.

Boom!

Kaljaque’s rush delivered a huge shock, but the all-black Lugos stood his ground, and Junhyuk inspected him. The color change was a type of power, and when using that power, he received less damage than normal.

So, Junhyuk had to buy more time until Lugo’s resistance buff ended. That’s when Kaljaque raised his staff and pounded him three times.

What is this troll doing? He is so stupid! Kaljaque wanted to use the flow of events to knock the opponent down. Junhyuk closed in on them, but Gyulsean arrived first and tripped Kaljaque. He was the one knocked down.

Kaljaque tripped and fell within the range of the enemy tower. When the enemy got closer to maximize their range, Junhyuk should have pulled him away, but it was too late for that now. Junhyuk analyzed the situation. He didn’t know the enemies’ healths, so he couldn’t use his Spatial Slash yet.

Junhyuk approached them, and Lugos stepped forward. His huge eye was beaming in excitement, and he shouted, “You are a newbie!”

Lugos got closer and stabbed at him with the short spear. The muscles of his arm tightened with the motion of the very sharp stab, but Junhyuk dodged his attacks and swung the Frozen Rune Sword, slashing his forearm.

As Junhyuk cut him, he was glad he had done it. Junhyuk had thought Lugos would be ignorant and strong, but his defense wasn’t as strong as he had thought. His forearm tore up, leaving a huge wound, and a shockwave stretched out from him with a ten-meter radius.

The nearby lizardmen were swept by the shockwave and died, and the rest of the lizardmen scattered.

Junhyuk felt more confidence from slashing Lugos’s forearm than from the lizardmen he had killed, and because of that confidence, he started attacking the enemy.

Lugos had four arms, but his attack speed wasn’t that fast. Each of his blows was powerful, but his speed overall was quite slow. After getting his forearm slashed, his movement speed decreased.

Junhyuk wasn’t an easy opponent, especially for someone like Lugos. He had fought against heroes many times over, and fighting was part of him now. He was highly focused and engaged on Lugos, but Lugos was making his hairs stand up. Lugo’s attacks were that dangerous.

Junhyuk carried items that enhanced his attack rather than his defense or health, so if Lugos managed to hit him, it would hurt a lot.

He was tied up with Lugos, and Kaljaque was exposed to attacks from Gyusean and the tower, and his health was plummeting fast. Junhyuk could see it.

“Kaljaque! Retreat!”

Kaljaque retreated from the tower’s range and attacked Gyulsean, but Gyulsean displayed amazing ability to move. She had horse legs and she moved differently. Gyulsean moved quickly and prevented Kaljaque from retreating any further.

She dodged Kaljaque’s attacks and skillfully stabbed him with her spear. Junhyuk would have a tougher time dealing with her than with Lugos.

He saw that Kaljaque had 20 percent of his health left. Champions didn’t have ultimates, so if the tower concentrate its attacks on him, he would surely die. If Kaljaque died, Junhyuk would be alone, so he knew he had to use his power right then.

Each time Junhyuk attacked, Lugos lost 7 percent of his health. Because of Lugos defensive power and his large health, Junhyuk knew the Spatial Slash wouldn’t kill him yet. Junhyuk kept thinking, and Gyulsean rushed toward Kaljaque.

Boom!

Kaljaque was pushed five meters back, and that could be fatal. He only had 7 percent of his health left. Even if he ran, if the tower attacked him, he would die. Junhyuk had to save him. Kaljaque was almost dead, and Gyulsean approached him. Lugos made the right choice and left Junhyuk behind to go after him as well.

Lugos had 70 percent of his health left. Even if Junhyuk slashed him, he would still survive, but Kaljaque would die from a single blow. Lugos’ arm enlarged to twice the size, and Junhyuk looked at Kaljaque. He hadn’t lost his spirit yet. Even with Lugos and Gyulsean running toward him, he shouts, “Graaaahh!”

Suddenly, Gyulsean and Lugos were paralyzed, and Junhyuk realized that Kaljaque had used his power. Kaljaque had paralyzed the two and swung his staff at Gyulsean.

The tower’s archers were attacking him, and he had only 3 percent of his health left. Still he wasn’t thinking of escaping, but wanted to kill the enemies instead. Junhyuk thought about what he was doing and became angry, but he remained patient.

Junhyuk could still save him. He extended his hands, and an ivory-colored light surrounded Kaljaque, and Kaljaque stopped swing his staff and stood there dumbfounded.

“Run!” Junhyuk shouted loudly, and Kaljaque collected himself and started to run. When he ran, the force field pushed Lugos and Gyulsean aside. The paralysis from the howling was gone, and they both attacked Kaljaque.

Kunk, kunk, kunk!

Because Kaljaque’s health was low, they thought they could kill him. However, after pounding on the force field a few times, they realized the force field around him would block all physical attacks.

They frowned and looked at Junhyuk, but he had already close in on Gyulsean and was swinging his sword down on her. She raised her spear to try to block his attack.

Clang!

The shockwave spread out, but Gyulsean wasn’t wounded at all, so Junhyuk tried to stab her again. She blocked him again, and he used the Spatial Slash with the Blood Rune Sword.

Gyulsean felt a prick on her neck and twisted her body, but the Spatial Slash had hit her, creating another shockwave.

“Argh!”

He watched her health drop. It had only been one blow, but it was a critical strike. The Spatial Slash took 70 percent off of her health. She had already lost 10 percent while fighting Kaljaque, so she only had 20 percent of her health left.

Gyulsean was completely surprised by the sudden amount of damage and retreated. Junhyuk didn’t chase her down. Instead, he grabbed Kaljaque and went back to his tower.

“Look! We are supposed to fight together!”

“Kaljaque, one more strike and you will die.”

“But they are…”

“If you die first, we can’t win.”

Kaljaque gritted his teeth, but retreated anyway. Before the force field disappeared, they put a good distance between their enemies. Junhyuk turned and looked at Gyulsean. She was holding her neck and drinking a potion.

She had started with 20 percent, and after drinking the potion her health was at 50 percent. The Spatial Slash could deal damage equal to 70 percent of her health. The next one would kill her.

Then, Junhyuk looked back at Lugos, whom he had been fighting. He had started with 70 percent of his health, but it was down to 50 percent. When he struck with the Spatial Slash, the shockwave dealt half of the total possible damage to Lugos, meaning the pure Spatial Slash could take out 40 percent of Lugos’ health.

When the cooldown was over, by his calculations, he could kill at least one enemy. Before the force field disappeared, Kaljaque drank a potion. He was also aware that he had to regain his health.

His health increased by 15 percent, leaving him at 18 percent, and Junhyuk learned that Kaljaque’s health was twice that of Gyulsean. He could understand Kaljaques’ style of fighting now, and how he had survived the battles. He had to have items that increased and regenerated his health.

Junhyuk stood in front of him.

“We’ll wait twenty-five seconds.”

“Waiting for your power?”

“Yes.”

“Then their powers will also return.”

“But without my power, we can’t fight.”

As Junhyuk said that, Kaljaque thought for a moment, but he soon agreed. Just a moment before, Junhyuk had been engaged in battle with Lugos, and each time Junhyuk attacked, he created shockwaves that killed most of the lizardmen. There were thirty lizardmen left.

Kaljaque could also deal with the lizardmen alone. One hit meant one death, and he would continue to attack and kill all lizardmen, but he couldn’t sweep through them with shockwaves.

“Is that your power?”

“What?”

“Making shockwaves that damage your surroundings.”

Junhyuk stared at him.

“Now you are curious about my power?”

“Yes. It’s the first time I see that kind of power.”

Junhyuk laughed.

“It’s an item’s effect.”

“An item? Is there such thing?”

Junhyuk answered him. He was not a hero, so he couldn’t lose his item and answered everything.

“It’s an item set effect. It’s hard to build a set, but when the set is complete it has astounding effects.”

“Cool. So, your powers are the force field and the teleportation? What is the other one?”

He had been running, so he couldn’t see the Spatial Slash. Junhyuk didn’t want to keep secrets from his allies, so he told him calmly, “When we fight again, I will show you.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

As they talked, Kaljaque recovered more of his health. It was now up to 20 percent. The enemies had also regained some health, but that had to be because of potions.

Junhyuk inhaled deeply.

“This time, you take Lugos. I will take Gyulsean.”

“Can you kill Gyulsean? Can you even get close to her?”

“Don’t worry about it.”

He wasn’t thinking about getting close. He would kill her from a distance and then attack Lugos. If the allies had another long range attacker, things would be much easier. If someone took out 30 percent of Gyulsean’s health, Junhyuk would take care of the rest. However, they didn’t have such a person. He had to do the best with the circumstances he was given.

The enemies were scared of him and didn’t come close. When Junhyuk was fighting Lugos, he generated shockwaves that hit Gyulsean and swept through the lizardmen. Knowing that the lizardmen were useless, they decided not to use them.

They were standing by the tower and realized their cooldowns were over. Both side’s cooldowns were over. Junhyuk still had some time left for the force field, but he couldn’t wait any longer. The enemy champions started making their move because their powers were at their disposal. If Junhyuk made Kaljaque wait any longer, he would get into another predicament just like before.

He took a step back.

“Second round. Let’s begin.”

“OK.”

Kaljaque ran forward pell-mell, and Junhyuk knew he had to be careful. He couldn’t control Kaljaque, so he had to clean up Kaljaque’s shit for him.
