Chapter 72: Grave Danger 2

Translator: - - Editor: - -

The allied side wanted to stall for more time since they had a health regeneration buff, and potions really only worked on experts like Junhyuk and not well at all on heroes.

Nevertheless, the heroes drank their potions. Vera and Diane frowned at the disgusting taste, but the other heroes were devoid of expressions. Maybe they had lost their ability to taste.

"We will block their lead!" Artlans said and started running forward.

"Wait!" Junhyuk shouted back.

Artlan turned around, and Junhyuk extended his hand. Sarang was standing in the center of the group. Junhyuk had placed her there covertly, and he launched a force field around her.

"For the next ten seconds, we should regain our health and attack them at full power!" He said.

The entire force field covered them, and the enemy heroes stopped. They knew the power of the force field and were hesitant to approach.

Artlan chuckled.

"That's not too bad."

After he spoke, Artlan threw his saber. The saber was meant for Warren, and Warren blocked it with his claws, but Artlan's saber was upgraded, so it broke Warren's claws. He had blocked the saber, but Warren's most important weapons, his claws, were gone.

Diane shot multiple times. At once, five arrows zoomed forward, and the enemy heroes busied themselves trying to block them with their weapons.

Even though it was only for ten seconds, the allies could attack in any way they chose. Halo sent his sword up in the sky, preparing his most potent attack.

Vera made a firewall behind the enemy heroes, so they wouldn't be able to retreat, and also launched fire spears. This was a one-sided attack from the allies, and the enemies were enraged.

"Kill Warren!" Artlan shouted suddenly.

He caught the returning saber and threw it again at Warren. Warren scoffed and was about to swing his left claws at it when Sarang stepped forward.

The electric blast passed by the heroes to hit Warren. He was paralyzed when the saber pierced his chest, and Halo's sword flew toward his head.

Minota quickly kicked Warren to get him away, but Halo's sword still hit Warren's neck, beheading him.

Warren died and disappeared along with the force field.

Artlan ran forward, shouting:

"Junhyuk, Sarang, move toward the back!"

They had used their powers, and as Artlan shouted for them to move back, he ran toward the center of the enemy's formation.

The health regeneration increased rate gave them extra health, but they were not fully recovered. They had lost a lot of health fighting the dragon.

Artlan ran and targeted Libya. Minota stepped forward to block with his horn.

Clung!

Artlan's saber was so strong that it cracked Minota's horn. Minota's expression turned rigid, and Artlan stopped. Then, the enemy heroes concentrated their attacks on him: Ellic's hammer, Minota's stomps and Libya's ice spear.

Artlan hadn't regained enough health to deal with all three of them. He parried Ellic's hammer, but Minota's stomps created shockwaves that made him lose his balance. Then, an ice spear hit him.

Boom!

The ice spear slowed the opponent down. Artlan was frozen, and Ellic swung his hammer. Halo flash attacked Minota and slashed his ribs.

"Argh!"

Flash attack had an increase movement speed and was surprisingly fast. Minota couldn't really respond to it, and Halo moved toward Ellic.

Clung!

Halo blocked Ellic's hammer, and Artlan attacked Minota.

They couldn't let Lybia be, but the enemies' defensive tactics was very strong, so they couldn't get to her. She looked at Vera and Diane, but decided to attack Artlan.

Artlan's gear was of the highest quality, and it looked like he could kill them all by himself.

Artlan was still slowed down by the ice spear when Libya created an ice flower. The petals of the ice flower spread to all directions and damaged anything it touched.

Vera threw a fire spear at Libya, but Lybia had already launched the ice flower's petals.

Craaack!

The petals went everywhere, inflicting damage and slowing down opponents. Then, Minota ran toward Artlan.

Ordinarily, Artlan would have blocked him, but he was so slow at that time that Minota pierced his stomach with his horn.

"Argh!"

Artlan moaned, and Minota pulled both of Artlan's arms. He was quickly losing health, and Junhyuk gritted his teeth.

Junhyuk ran to save Artlan, but he heard a scream coming from behind him and turned to look.

"Ahhh!"

Nobody had know where Skia had been, but Skia's dagger was jutting out of Vera's chest.

"Vera!"

Junhyuk ran toward Skia, but Diane's arrows got to Skia first. The five arrows were fired in a row, but with the increased attack speed, all five arrows were about to hit Skia at the same time.

Skia started fading, and the arrows flew through the empty air. Junhyuk knew Skia would show up again, and Skia showed up right in front of Diane.

Junhyu teleported behind Skia and stabbed his sword at Skia, who was about to stab Diane. Skia ignored Junhyuk and continued to attack Diane.

Vera was their most important hero, and she was dying. Skia also wanted to kill Diane. They would win this team battle because of Skia's contributions, so Skia ignored Junhyuk.

Skia felt Junhyuk's attack wouldn't be that strong, so Skia swung both daggers at Diane, and she blocked them with her bow.

Clung!

That's when Junhyuk's sword pierced Skia.

"Ugh!"

Skia hadn't expected the attack to do much, but Junhyuk had just delivered the fatal blow. Skia tried to escape him, but Junhyuk was buffed with increased attack speed and continued his attack against Skia.

Skia's speed decreased, and Diane loosened her arrows.

Boom!

It was a short distance, but the explosive arrow hit Skia, and Junhyuk swung the Blood Rune Sword at the staggering Skia's neck.

Slash!

Skia was not beheaded yet, but Skia's vein had been cut, and blood poured out of it like a fountain. Skia swung the daggers at Junhyuk, but he teleported to stand behind Skia and finish the job.

He beheaded Skia.

"Ugh!"

Skia's head flew up, and Junhyuk felt relieved. The heroes had attacked while in the force field, and the short distance explosive arrow along with Junhyuk's continuous attacks had killed Skia. He was wearing some pieces of the Golden Knight Elder's set and was able to ignore Skia's defense.

Junhyuk picked up Skia's cloak and turned around to see Vera disappearing.

"Vera!"

Sarang was crying while hugging her. Vera had not died before, and Sarang was in shock. Vera caressed her cheek.

"Stay alive."

"I will. You should drink a potion…"

Vera looked at Junhyuk.

"Even if you die, protect Sarang."

Junhyuk nodded heavily, and Vera disappeared completely, dropping a red-gemmed ring.

Junhyuk tried to pick it up, but he heard a whisper:

[You don't have the right to pick it up.]

He sighed and looked at the enemies. It was three versus four at that moment, and suddenly, he saw Artlan get pierced by Minota's horn through his chest, and he too started to disappear.

"Artlan!"

Artlan couldn't die! Junhyuk had never experienced anything remotely similar to that situation, and Nudra said:

"Protect Diane!"

Was it possible to protect Diane? Junhyuk realized that he needed to stall for more time. He was still waiting for the cooldown time for spatial relocation to end.

Diane was firing shots nonstop. She had an attack speed buff, and her attacks were extremely sharp.

Minota was protecting Libya with his body, and all of Diane's attacks were focused on him. He was covered with arrows and used his doppelganger skill. He was also covered by the five-colored magic circle. Artlan died and lost his buff to Minota. His health regen rate had increased by 30 percent, and that helped a lot.

Minota ran forward, and Nudra extended his hands, generating a strong wind that pushed Minota back.

Nudra kicked one of the Minotas and headed toward Libya.

He was fast to begin with, and now that he was buffed, he seemed uncatchable, but Minota rushed at him and hit him.

Both of them were buffed, and Minota headbutted him. Nudra bounced back, and Libya launched an ice spear at him. He couldn't escape it, and Minota rushed at him again.

Boom!

Nudra staggered, and the second Minota rushed at him.

Boom!

He bounced away from the continuous attacks. He had lost most of his health fighting the dragon, and now he was barely alive.

However, the enemies' attacks were not over. Minota rushed again, and behind him, he saw Libya flying through the empty air.

Junhyuk grabbed Sarang by the hand and retreated. Lybia hovered up high and crashed on Nudra.

Boom!

Nudra's health was gone, and he started to disappear. Lybia was covered by the five-colored magic circle.

Diane shot at her from a short distance, and Libya tried to escape, but Diane was too close.

Libya staggered, and Minota rushed in.

Boom!

Diane lifted her bow, but she was still pushed back, and the second Minota rushed at her.

"Aaargh!"

Diane bounces off, and Libya launched an ice spear. She saw the ice spear and moved in mid-air, loosening an arrow. The arrow hit Lybia directly in the neck, and Libya started to disappear, but her ice spear hit Diane in the chest. Diane dropped to the ground, unable to move, and Minota rushed at her.

Craaack!

Minota stepped on Diane's chest, and she wasn't even able to scream before she disappeared.

From Junhyuk's side, Halo was the only hero alive. The enemies had Minota and Ellic.

It was two versus one, and Halo couldn't handle both of them. He had lost a lot of health. Even if Junhyuk and Sarang stepped in, the situation wouldn't change.

Junhyuk was worrying about what to do when Halo blocked Ellic's hammer and shouted:

"Run away!"

That was the first time he heard Halo speak. Junhyuk was staring at him blankly when Minota went toward Halo, and the second Minota went toward him and Sarang.

Halo shouts again:

"Stay alive! Run away!"

After Halo's words, Junhyuk started running with Sarang. The entrance was blocked by the enemy, so Junhyuk ran toward the 130-foot high cliff that was blocking their way.
