Chapter 479: Variables 1

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Ronga was closing on him quickly, so Junhyuk triggered his acceleration. He wasn’t using the set effect, but he could still see Ronga’s movements.

Ronga was running for him, but he was bobbing as he ran. The enemy hero had to be worried about Junhyuk’s Spatial Slash. Junhyuk took a moment to let his enemy get closer since Ronga could sense an incoming attack. He thought fifty meters between them should be enough.

When they saw that Junhyuk wasn’t using his Spatial Slash, the other enemy heroes also dashed forward. They maintained a certain distance from him and from each other.

If the enemies fell within range, they could be attacked by the Spatial Slash at any moment, but Junhyuk did not use it at seventy meters. Instead, he waited until they got within fifty meters of him so that he wouldn’t need Aksha’s Longsword to use it.

Looking at the enemies, he shouted, “Sarang!”

Once the enemies got within forty meters of them, Junhyuk was going to let Sarang use her Thunderstorm.

He closed in quickly, and Ronga’s and Cuba’s expressions hardened.

The enemies knew about his Spatial Slash and that it could deal about 40 percent of damage to them. They tensed up. While closing in on them, Junhyuk extended Aksha’s Longsword. With the sword stretched out, their expressions eased a bit.

With Aksha’s Longsword outstretched, they thought Junhyuk would be targeting Yagi, so the two of them sped up. At that moment, Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash with Dentra’s Magic Sword.

Slash!

The attack cut through Ronga’s neck, and blood spurted out of it. Ronga lost 47 percent of his health.

“Argh!” Ronga screamed, but he increased his speed. Junhyuk ran to meet him.

Ronga went berserk dashing toward him, but suddenly, a lightning bolt struck the hero’s head. The thunderbolt took out a huge chunk off of the hero’s health, dealing 36 percent of damage to him. Sarang’s damage had definitely increased.

One of her items probably increased damage or added fixed damage to her attacks.

Junhyuk ran toward Ronga, who rushed him.

Though Ronga had rushed, Junhyuk wasn’t standing in the same spot. He had accelerated, so he had been able to tell Ronga’s movements and teleported out of the rush’s path.

When he teleported he thought of something. He wanted to know if he could teleport a third time like on Earth.

Junhyuk distanced himself from the enemy hero and extended Aksha’s Longsword.

Ronga blocked the attack with his broadsword and swung it at Junhyuk. Aksha’s Longsword shortened quickly, and Junhyuk attacked Ronga’s midsection.

Ronga was caught by surprise, but he turned his body away and swung down on Junhyuk’s sword.

Junhyuk closed in while Aksha’s was being hit. At the same time, Cuba rushed at him, and Junhyuk spent a moment worrying.

Should he teleport? DId he have an extra teleportation now?

Junhyuk dodged Cuba’s rush.

Boom!

Cuba passed him by, but his rush didn’t stop. He slammed against the ground in the middle of everyone, and the slam created a shockwave.

Sarang got hit by the shockwave and was pushed back.

“Protect the hero!” Junhyuk shouted, and the allied minions stood in front of her to defend her.

Junhyuk saw that Ronga was coming at him again. He had used his Spatial Slash, but his attacks weren’t all used up.

To kill Ronga, he was willing to use all of his powers. Suddenly, a beam zoomed toward Ronga. It was great timing, and Sarang could have paralyzed both Cuba and Ronga with her electric blasts if she had attacked.

Seizing the opportunity, Junhyuk ran toward Ronga, but that’s when Yagi shot at him.

Junhyuk blocked the arrow, but he felt himself being damaged. However, it was an unexpected type of damage.

Previously, her attacks had dealt 2 percent of damage to him. Now, it was only 1 percent. Yagi’s attack was a magic attack, and because the damage was very low, Junhyuk could ignore the hero while he attacked Ronga.

Junhyuk measured the distance between him and Ronga as he ran toward the enemy hero, and Ronga triggered his combo slash. Ronga’s continuous swings with the broadsword could deal a lot of damage to Junhyuk. He didn’t want to get hit by the broadsword, so he teleported away.

He hadn’t done this before, but now, Junhyuk realized that he could teleport once more. He appeared to see the back of Ronga’s head and stabbed it. Ronga turned right on time, dodging the critical hit, but he still received 7 percent of damage.

The hero started spinning with his swords outstretched, and the attack took 17 percent off of Junhyuk’s health.

While Ronga was spinning, he was invulnerable, so Junhyuk turned to Cuba and ran toward the hero. Ronga’s spin had lost some of its movement speed.

Cuba smirked at him and lifted his foot. At the same time, Junhyuk lost control and rolled under Cuba’s feet. The enemy hero stomped all over him.

It was an unexpected power. That was Cuba’s ultimate. Junhyuk had seen Sarang go through it before. While he was stuck under Cuba’s feet, Ronga caught up with him, still spinning.

Junhyuk lost 20 percent of his health from Cuba’s ultimate and another 17 percent of his health from Ronga’s attack. In no time at all, he had lost 54 percent of his heath.

From under Cuba’s feet, Junhyuk set and triggered his Spatial Collapse on Ronga. The hero’s chest was torn open, and he lost the rest of his health. Cuba was sucked into the void as well and couldn’t balance himself.

Junhyuk stabbed Cuba’s chest. The tank had high defense, but still not as high as Ronga’s. The stab was a critical hit, dealing 18 percent of damage.

Junhyuk twisted his sword and stabbed deeper into the hero.

“Wraaah!”

The attack had been made while Cuba was off balance. With Cuba’s scream, his entire body turned black, so Junhyuk pulled his sword out.

He knew that Cuba was buffing his defense, which made him unsure about whether he would be able to pull his sword out.

Yagi used her multishot to attack Sarang. Junhyuk wanted to finish Cuba before changing targets, but when he attacked Cuba, he saw he wasn’t dealing a lot of damage.

The enemy couldn’t be critted in that state, and his damage was reduced by half. Junhyuk could only deal 5 percent of damage to Cuba with his attacks.

Then, the enemy minion who was taller than the others stepped forward.

The fight between Ronga and Junhyuk had only taken ten seconds, and the minion had not been able to do much to help there.

The tall minion, who was a bipedal pig, extended both hands forward, and pink light sprinkled over Cuba’s head, regenerating his health.

“A heal?!”

If the pig had healed Ronga, things could’ve turned out bad.

Junhyuk knew he had to kill the pig, but as soon as the minion used his power, he turned around and started running.

That was a bit surprising for Junhyuk. He didn’t know the cooldown of the heal. The pig could be an expert with an extra life, but if that was the case, why was he running away?

It was possible the pig was a novice. Junhyuk wanted to disengage from Cuba and go after him.

Elise shot a beam that struck Cuba’s head. Her overall damage was low, but the beam was still very strong. The Red Dragon set boosted fire elemental attacks and dealt additional damage to anyone hit by it.

Cuba turned to face Elise, and Junhyuk stabbed Cuba’s chest again.

[You’ve triggered acceleration. For the next three seconds, your movement and attack speeds will be increased by 50 percent.]

After hearing the announcement, Junhyuk attacked Cuba’s neck.

Thuck, thuck, thuck!

Cuba couldn’t defend himself. The combo managed to burn through Cuba’s defensive buff, dealing massive damage to the enemy hero.

Sarang and Elise joined in the attack. Cuba didn’t last long after that, fading away, and Yagi retreated.

She was headed for the hog, but Junhyuk followed them. His teleports were under cooldown, so he had to wait for that, but his Spatial Slash would return soon, so he couldn’t give up the chase now.

Yagi was using her speed buff, so he couldn’t catch up to her. She had left the enemy minions behind, and Junhyuk used them as stepping stones.

He ignored their attacks and watched as the distance between himself and Yagi increased. However, he knew where she was going.

Yagi was running to a portal, the buff tower portal. The war pig had entered it first, and after that, Yagi did the same.

Junhyuk reached the portal a moment letter. When he stepped into it, a map of Nightmare Mountain appeared in his head. He could see the locations of the other four portals, but he didn’t know where Yagi had gone, so he turned back.

He couldn’t chase Yagi since he didn’t know where she was. Instead, he would kill the enemy minions and take the buff tower. After getting the speed buff, he would chase after his enemies.

Junhyuk stretched Aksha’s Longsword and killed many minions with each swing of it.

He couldn’t use the shockwaves to do it, but he was still going through them quickly. After the minions were dead, he gathered the allies.

“The buff tower gives a speed buff, so we can chase Yagi after getting buffed. Let’s split up and attack both sides.”

“Are we giving up the buff tower?”

“No. Our enemies will revive and come back here, but that will take them four hours. We can use the portals to support the other sides and come back. It should take us a couple of hours to do that. Then, we’ll be able to occupy the buff tower again.” Smiling, he added, “We are not giving up this tower.”
