Chapter 437: Two Versus Five 2

Alondo received a direct hit, but he managed to turn his body in time to avoid a critical on his head. So, he received less damage than Junhyuk had expected.

However, Junhyuk was eager to finish the two heroes in front of him before the ones at the buff tower came to their rescue.

As he ran ahead, thunderbolts crashed down on the enemies again. Alondo had managed to minimize the damage of the first Thunderstorm, but he wasn’t able to dodge the second. The lightning roasted the hero.

Junhyuk inspected Durandal. The hero was holding his head forward, which meant he was about to use his taunt.

The taunt would make them unable to act at will, so Junhyuk felt that he had to escape it. Durandal jumped forward, closing in on Junhyuk, who swung Aksha’s Longsword in response. The sword was fluid and nimble as it headed for the jumping Durandal.

Durandal extended his hand toward the incoming sword, and Junhyuk laughed out loud. Those tricks wouldn’t work in their battle, he thought.

Junhyuk turned his wrist, and Aksha’s Longsword’s blade slithered and slashed Durandal. The sword moved across the air like a snake, evading Durandal’s defenses to hit him.

After being hit on the shoulder, Durandal scowled. He had been hit even though he had jumped.

Boom!

Durandal fell fifteen meters from Junhyuk and Sarang, who shot an electric arrow at him.

Durandal shouted, “Rrraaarhh!

Junhyuk and Sarang lost their wills and gripped their weapons tightly as they charged Durandal. They should’ve have run away from the hero when Durandal jumped, and that mistake came at great cost.

While the allies were taunted, Epilen and Dolorac closed in and joined the fight. Epilen positioned himself behind Sarang, stabbing her with his dagger.

They had fought before, and Junhyuk had been ignorant in thinking that they wanted him dead first. Their focus was Sarang.

While Epilen stabbed her, Dolorac cast a spell. Huge bone spears appeared in front of him and launched themselves against her. Durandal also attacked her.

Because she was taunted, her health dropped fast, and her ultimate triggered. While it was active, she couldn’t receive any damage, so the enemies focused on him.

The enemy champion, Dalasha, had transformed into a skeleton horse and was galloping toward him. When she got close, she changed into a bear and beat him with her front paws. He received three attacks before he regained his composure.

As soon as he did, he raised the force field around Sarang and entered it himself. Sarang recovered her will even before her ultimate wore off.

Inside the force field, she healed them. Then, she shot electric arrows at Epilen and Dolorac. Luckily, both enemies were momentarily paralyzed, so Junhyuk slashed Epilen’s head. Because the hero was paralyzed, the attack was a critical hit, and Epilen lost 37 percent of his health.

The previous shockwave had already taken 30 percent of his health, so Epilen was only left with 33 percent. Junhyuk didn’t hesitate. He attacked Epilen again, but this time with the Blood Rune Sword. He was mixing his sword attacks.

Luck was with him, and the critical hits triggered extra attacks. Epilen received two more attacks and disappeared. While that happened, Sarang cast an electric blast at Dolorac.

Aksha’s Longsword retained battle information, and it could even pierce enemy defenses, but Sarang’s arrows could be blocked.

Dolorac was paralyzed, and two electric arrows slammed against his head. Both strikes were critical hits. Sarang’s attacks had gotten faster, even if only by a small margin.

By shooting faster, she had increased her damage output. That was evidence of her intense training.

As Junhyuk turned to face Dolorac, Durandal stepped in front of him. Durandal’s body was darkening, which looked like a type of defensive power.

Junhyuk swung his sword at Durandal. Meanwhile, Dolorac, who now had a bone armor around his body, retreated.

Junhyuk raised his hands against Durandal’s attack. Aksha’s Longsword extended from recognizing his moves and passed by Durandal to strike Dolorac. Due to Dolorac’s armor, the critical hit failed, but the damage scared Dolorac.

Dolorac kept retreating while the undead minions completely surrounded Junhyuk and Sarang. Junhyuk had to wait until his teleportation came off cooldown, but he was smiling.

His Spatial Slash was off cooldown now. He had been so focused on the fight that he hadn’t paid attention to it. But now, Dolorac was retreating.

Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash, and the purple shockwave it generated caught up to Dolorac, hitting the hero’s head and destroying it. Dolorac disappeared, and Junhyuk turned to face Durandal.

Durandal and Dalasha were still alive, but Durandal wanted to run away. Sarang was still in danger, but the force field was still protecting her. Durandal lacked the firepower to change the course of the battle. He couldn’t deal with both allied heroes at the same time.

The undead minions refused to make a path for the two allies, so he stepped on them and chased after Durandal. At that moment, the force field disappeared.

Junhyuk was on the chase, but suddenly, Durandal turned around. Junhyuk had already jumped off the undead minions’ shoulders and swung his sword. Durandal lost 15 percent of his health.

The minions, however, couldn’t simply be ignored like the ones at the Valley of Death. As Junhyuk passed by them, he kept getting injured.

The enemy hero knew that, and he also knew Junhyuk had used all of his powers.

Durandal ran toward him, and Junhyuk had to block the attack with the Blood Rune Sword. Aksha’s Longsword had stretched in his other hand and snaked itself in the air to attack Durandal’s back.

Once close, Durandal bearhugged Junhyuk and shouted, “Attack him!”

The enemy minions attacked Junhyuk, and there was nothing he could do about it while grappled by Durandal.

Sarang pounded Durandal with electric arrows, but the hero didn’t care. He simply wanted to take Junhyuk with him. However, Durandal’s grapple wasn’t a power.

Junhyuk knew he shouldn’t remain that way, so he put all of his energy into his arms. Durandal’s grapple was strong coming from a tank, but Junhyuk had the best runestones.

Durandal hadn’t expected Junhyuk to break the hug, but once Junhyuk was free, he smiled and said, “You’re rather weak.”

Junhyuk kicked off Durandal’s chest and slashed with Aksha’s Longsword. Durandal attempted to block, and an electric arrow hit him. However, Durandal ignored everything else as he held the blade of Aksha’s Longsword with the palms of both of his hands and pulled Junhyuk toward him. Junhyuk hadn’t expected a move like that.

Junhyuk had lost significant health to the undead minions, and now another wave of undead minions was attacking him. However, Durandal’s health was low. The hero only had 25 percent of his health left, so Junhyuk would be able to kill him with two regular attacks.

Junhyuk shortened Aksha’s Longsword. Because Durandal was holding it, when the blade shortened, Junhyuk closed in. When he got close enough, he attacked with the Blood Rune Sword.

Durandal kicked him in response.

Boom!

Junhyuk was thrown back toward the undead minions, who attacked him mercilessly. Things couldn’t keep going that way.

Clank, clank, clank!

The minions’ attacks were stopped, and Junhyuk looked at the person in front of him.

“Get up!”

It was an allied minion. His own minions had come to his rescue and were blocking the undead minions’ attacks with their shields.

Sarang shot electric arrows at Durandal again and again. The hero had to have high magic defense with the amount of damage her arrows were actually doing.

Meanwhile, Junhyuk hopped on the shield foothold his minions had made for him and slashed again. The undead minions along the path of his sword’s blade collapsed.

Junhyuk ran ahead and spotted Durandal trying to flee. Durandal was very tall, so he could see the hero’s torso above the sea of undead minions.

“Attack him!”

The undead minions rushed at him again, but this time, Junhyuk was quickly cutting them down. The allied minions followed him and formed defensive circles inside the undead formation.

Junhyuk ran faster, recovering his health as he closed the gap with his enemy.

Durandal turned around to attack. His health was already too low, so Junhyuk slashed with Aksha’s Longsword. Durandal was hit, and his health was left so low that even a breeze would kill the hero.

Junhyuk ran toward his enemy and shouted, “Attack with me!”

“Yes!”

Sarang shot another electric arrow then, which hit Durandal at the same time as Aksha’s Longsword. Durandal had tried to block the attack with his arms, but Aksha’s Longsword had snaked itself beneath them and risen toward the hero’s chest.

The sword and the arrow struck Durandal at the same time.

Thuck!

Durandal died from the strikes, but Junyuk received the kill. He had wanted Sarang to get it, but things had already been decided.

Looking around, Junhyuk saw a skeleton horse running away. The champion had transformed herself and was now well past the enemy watchtower.

Junhyuk shook his head at the sight. The champion was running away even though she wouldn’t lose items if she died. She just didn’t want to fight them.

Looking at the undead minions, Junhyuk shouted, “Clean them up!”

The allied minions followed him in the killing.
