Junhyuk parried Adolphe"s saw-blade sword and seized the moment to counter stab with the Frozen Rune Sword immediately. He had aimed for the chest, but Adolphe dodged the attack by turning his body away.
Adolphe had escaped just a hair"s breadth, but Junhyuk closed in and used the Blood Rune Sword to cut his leg. Adolphe grimaced and stepped back, and Junhyuk smiled with satisfaction.
Adolphe knew about the Frozen Rune Sword"s power and focused on dodging it, but at that moment, Junhyuk was under the Wolf Warlord"s buff, which caused his movement speed to increase.
After feeling the cut, Adolphe slashed his sword across the air. He had swung the two-handed sword to put some distance between himself and Junhyuk, but Junhyuk wasn"t budging.
Junhyuk bent crouched, and the saw-bladed sword went past his head. Then, he swung the Frozen Rune Sword low, cutting Adolphe"s ankle, debuffing his movement speed. Not only was had his movement speed been debuffed, but his attack speed had been as well. With stacking debuff, it was safe to say that Adolphe was nearing his end.
Previously, Junhyuk had to be mindful of being overwhelmed by his strength, but now, he had his newly acquired runestones, so he no longer cared.
Adolphe winced and swung his sword against Junhyuk, who dodged to the side and decided to mount his own counterattack. When he was about to do it, however, Adolphe smiled cooly.
That"s when Junhyuk felt something was wrong and rolled to the side.
Bang!
It was something Adolphe had been hoping for. When Junhyuk dodged the sword strike, Killa shot at him. Even though Junhyuk had more defense than before, getting hit by Killa was not a good idea.
While Junhyuk dodged the bullet, Adolphe quickly retreated.
Junhyuk"s head turned to look at the others. He had been too focused on Adolphe and forgotten about his surroundings, which had almost gotten him killed. So, he calmly looked around.
Killa was using her sniper rifle, but Doctor Tula, who still had a lot of health, was attacking head-on. With Killa"s cover, Nudra and Halo could approach. Meanwhile, the Doctor was trying to kill Diane. The doctor had to have thought that it would"ve been better to kill Diane than Nudra or Halo, who had more health. However, Diane wasn"t an easy opponent.
She lured Doctor Tula as close as possible while still maintaining her distance from Killa. At that moment, Doctor Tula was trying to stay away from Nudra and and Halo. While he was fighting with Diane, if Nudra and Halo also joined the fight, the doctor would surely die.
So, he distanced himself from the allies, and Halo and Nudra decided to go after Killa. With them heading her way, Junhyuk, who had been watching it all, knew that she wouldn"t be able to come after him anymore.
He would take care of Adolphe, and the allies still had Sarang. If Adolphe got paralyzed, the enemies would only have two heroes left. Diane wouldn"t die easily to Doctor Tula, and Killa had already used her ultimate. Halo and Nudra would be OK.
With that in mind, Junhyuk attacked Adolphe fiercely, and Adolphe gritted his teeth while fighting back. Even if Adolphe was just grazed by Junhyuk"s sword, he would lose some movement and attack speeds.
Adolphe felt the Frozen Rune Sword and the debuff at the same time. He could feel his body getting heavier, and it was making him go crazy. So he changed his tactics to defend himself.
Meanwhile, his power came back. Adolphe thought Junhyuk"s power had come back as well, but he wasn"t using it. Adolphe wanted Junhyuk dead. From close range, Adolphe rushed in and swung the saw-bladed sword.
Junhyuk blocked the attack with his swords, but his body was still paralyzed. He shouldn"t have saved his Spatial Slash.
He had been doing so to kill Killa, but now he was stuck. However, he couldn"t get hit by Adolphe"s ten-meter energy strike because the cooldown hadn"t ended yet. One of those would"ve cost him 20 percent of his health. Adolphe rushed, but the damage wouldn"t be very high.
With him stopped, Adolphe swung his sword at Junhyuk"s neck, and Junhyuk couldn"t afford getting hit by a critical hit.
Zzap!
The sword was coming down, but suddenly, Adolphe"s head snapped backward. The single flash of an electricity arrow had zoomed in to hit his head, and with luck, Adolphe had been stunned. The effect had a very low probability of taking place.
Adolphe was in fact paralyzed, and Junhyuk smiled. However, both of them were in the same predicament and couldn"t move.
Adolphe grimaced and started moving again, quicker than Junhyuk. He swung his sword at Junhyuk!
Clang!
He had been quicker, but Junhyuk also started moving again and blocked him with his swords. Then, he parried and countered with the Frozen Rune Sword, slas.h.i.+ng Adolphe"s arm and stacking the debuff three times. Then, he took a step forward and swung the Blood Rune Sword to regain some of his health.
Feeling cornered, Adolphe realized he had to strike Junhyuk with a ma.s.sive blow to kill him. If not, he would have to ask for help from the heroes.
With the difference in their movement speeds, Junhyuk attacked him fiercely. Nothing good would come to him if Adolphe used his power, so Junhyuk kept up the pressure. He wanted to finish him off, and every slash was getting through.
When Adolphe had only 20 percent of his health, Junhyuk had made up his mind. He would kill him at all costs, wanting to help his team.
Junhyuk"s eyes glinted, and he dodged Adolphe"s attack. Adolphe had lost half of his movement speed, and Junhyuk tapped his chest. Adolphe was very angry, but Junhyuk teleported to appear next to the heroes who were attacking Killa.
She wasn"t retreating, but actually fighting at the front.
Junhyuk appeared next to Halo, touched him, and teleported again. Nudra was moving at high speed, but Halo was rather slow. He took Halo and closed in on Killa, smiling.
There were eight meters between them now. Killa had been trying to flank them, but he was able to catch up to her with the two teleportations. He was finally close enough, so he didn"t wait and used his Spatial Slash.
Adolphe tried to block the attack, but blood gushed out of Killa"s next, and the shock wave swept across everyone.
"Ugh!"
The shock wave killed Adolphe, and Junhyuk dashed toward Killa. With only 20 percent of her health left, she was scared of the sight of him approaching. Meanwhile, Nudra was covered by the Rising Dragon and launched an attack.
Killa frowned and jumped to escape. She thought she had, but Halo was already there, thanks to Junhyuk"s teleportation.
Halo flash-attacked her, slicing her ribs. Then, Nudra released a strong wind toward her.
Killa disappeared, and Junhyuk smiled. The allies would have the victory.
Junhyuk had not killed Killa, but he had helped out his team in the team battle. He turned around, and Doctor Tula gave up on killing Diane and tried to run away. He ran into the forest, and Diane shouted after him, "You dare to run into a forest in front of an elf!"
She ran, and Junhyuk didn"t hesitate. He jumped over the trees in the forest to appear in front of the doctor.
Doctor Tula scoffed at him and struck with his front legs. Junhyuk blocked the attacks with his swords, but the doctor had been waiting for that moment to fire off his missiles.
Boom!
The small missiles. .h.i.t Junhyuk, and he went rolling on the ground. Doctor Tula chuckled and rushed at him, smiling. However, at that moment, an explosive arrow hit the doctor"s shoulder, and he staggered.
He only had 35 percent of his health left, and Junhyuk swung the Frozen Rune Sword at him. When he felt himself being cut, he frowned. Even as a hero, when he lost his attack speed, Junhyuk could kill him.
Doctor Tula could use his powers, but ordinary attacks would be ineffective against Junhyuk.
Junhyuk quickly followed with the Blood Rune Sword, regaining some health and ran to the side. When the doctor finally used the flamethrower, Junhyuk had already escaped. Still, the flames pursued Junhyuk everywhere while he moved to escape them.
Even as he kept running, he got burned on the back and felt himself losing health, but then, the light green powder sprinkled over his head. His health was back, so he smiled and went after Doctor Tula. He wanted to keep him pinned down so the doctor wouldn"t run away.
Halo, Nudra and Diane finally entered the forest and surrounded the doctor. He sighed and looked at Junhyuk.
"You are always the problem!"
Junhyuk pointed his swords at Doctor Tula.
"I"m sorry, but I have to go get some items. Can"t you just die?"
"You will be the only one to die in this place," Doctor Tula said, and rushed toward Junhyuk.
Junhyuk blocked the legs with his dual swords and shouted, "Help me!"
"Why? You don"t need any help," Diane said.
"I could be killed!" Junhyuk shouted again.
"He only has his web power left, and you need practice fighting heroes one-on-one anyway."
Doctor Tula had already told Junhyuk he would die, so he attacked fiercely, letting out all of his anger.
Junhyuk was pushed back, and Halo sent his sword in the air while Dianed pulled on her bowstring.
"Should we see who kills him?"
Halo"s Rain from Above and Diane"s ultimate, one of the two would kill the doctor. Both attacks took a long time to set up, but the damage was ma.s.sive.
Doctor Tula fired the webs at Junhyuk, He was too close, and Junhyuk got wrapped, unable to escape. The doctor"s front legs flew at Junhyuk. Tied up the way he was, the doctor"s attack could be fatal to him.
Junhyuk winced, and an arrow pierced the middle of the doctor"s forehead while a sword jutted out of his chest. He started disappearing, still attempting to strike Junhyuk.
"s.h.i.+t!"
Doctor Tula clicked his tongue, and Junhyuk smiled and cut the webs off himself. Then, he beheaded the doctor, kneeled before him and whispered in his ear, "I asked you to just die."
