Legend of Legends 456 Snowball 3

He hadn't seen anyone in ten minutes, so there was a significant possibility that his enemies had moved in another direction. He contacted the others.

"Gon, Layla, the enemies are not here."

"Yeah? All three heroes?"

"Right. Even just one of them might cause problems for you."

"What should we do?"

"I'll go join Layla. Sarang and Elise have to upgrade their weapons, so after they do that, they'll help you."

"OK. Do that," Gongon said.

Junhyuk added, "Layla, I'll join you as soon as possible."

"I'll wait for you."

"If you see Ronga, let me know."

"OK."

After discussing his plan, Junhyuk turned to Sarang and said, "Head over to Bebe with Elise, but be careful on your way."

"Sure."

"Only do the basic upgrades. Do you have gold?"

"Yes."

Junhyuk nodded and then turned to Elise to say, "Get everything priced."

"Will do."

Looking at the minions, he added, "There aren't enough of them, so take them with you. I'll go join Layla."

"OK."

"Don't forget to keep in touch with Gongon. We have the speed buff, so it should be OK, but we can't be sure."

"OK."

After cautioning Sarang about a few more things, they split. While running, Junhyuk thought about getting another buff on the way. He had the speed buff, so he could accomplish the task quickly.

Junhyuk went in search of the buff monster. He knew where it was, so when he found the Salamander, he killed it.

In the past, he had had difficulty finding the nucleus of the Salamander, but he knew where to look for it now. Aksha's Longsword pierced the beast and snaked itself inside it in search of the nucleus, killing it.

Junhyuk was buffed yet again, and he headed toward Layla. The enemy had lost the first watchtower, so the bird was perched on the second. Junhyuk was going to kill that hero.

He hadn't taken minions with him because he wanted to move quickly. His speed was already great, and now that he was buffed, he moved at incredible speed.

Then, he came up to a point on the road where the path split. Since he had started fighting in Nightmare Mountain, he hadn't killed a dragon. The sign on the road showed a valley to one side. If he followed it, he would encounter a dragon.

The round was difficult, so he wondered if he should kill the dragon to get the extra buffs. His spatial sense was active, so it warned him about people approaching. When he saw them, he frowned. They were coming straight toward him, and when the leader of the group saw him, the leader laughed hard.

"Hhha! We meet again!"

Ronga, Yagi, and Garu were walking toward him. Junhyuk was alone, so there was no way he could fight them. Measuring the distance between them, Junhyuk swung Aksha's Longsword. The sword stretched to its maximum length, twenty meters, triggering a Spatial Slash with a seventy-meter range.

The enemy heroes knew about his Spatial Slash, so they ran toward Junhyuk.

Junhyuk meant to run away, but because his enemies had been moving toward him, he decided to use his power on them.

The Spatial Slash cut through Ronga's neck and released a shockwave. All of them lost chunks of their health at once.

Ronga lost 41 percent; Yagi 32 percent; and Garu lost 21 percent.

Junhyuk didn't really want to fight, so when he saw the enemies getting hit, he turned around and ran away. While running, he heard Ronga laugh at him.

"Where are you going?!"

The enemies gave chase, and he smiled. Junhyuk was buffed. With his increased speed, he would be able to lose them.

"Garu!" Ronga shouted, and Garu hugged Yagi and jumped.

Garu jumped over twenty meters. Then, Ronga grabbed Yagi and rushed toward Junhyuk.

Once Yagi was free, she displayed her incredible speed against Junhyuk. She moved extremely quickly while shooting.

Junhyuk was buffed, so it was funny to him that Yagi was still faster than him. He got hit by the arrows and grimaced. Junhyuk hadn't figured it out before, but now, he knew: Yagi's arrows dealt 2 percent in damage, but they also dealt damage-over-time for three seconds. If he got hit again while those three seconds were active, the damage increased.

After getting hit five times, the arrows would explode.

Junhyuk tried to run away, but looking back, he sighed. He couldn't continue like that, so he teleported. Yagi's speed was impressive, but he could teleported, so he used both teleports to gain a sixty-meter distance from them. The enemies stopped, out of breath.

Ronga watched him go and smacked his lips. He thought that they could've continued to chase Junhyuk, but that wasn't part of their plan.

"Let's turn back. We'll kill the dragon first. Then, we'll seek him out."

The heroes turned around. Junhyuk didn't dare reengage them, but that meant they would get to the dragon first.

He turned his gaze away from them when they did the same to him. Junhyuk wanted to get away, to hide in the forest. Once he was sure the enemy heroes couldn't see him, he contacted the others.

"Gon, Layla, Sarang, I came up on our enemies. They are going to kill the dragon."

"With just three?"

"That's right."

"It'll be easy to push from the sides without three enemies on the field."

"But they'll kill the dragon before we destroy their castle."

The buff from killing the dragon was a serious problem. If the enemies got it, they would become incredibly dangerous.

Junhyuk was sure that he could kill Ronga now, but the other heroes were also dangerous. Yagi was extremely annoying, and her explosions made things complicated. If Yagi gained attack items, she would become deadly.

After some thought, Junhyuk said, "I have to steal it."

"Steal it? You mean the dragon kill?"

"Right. We won't be able to win this round if I don't do it."

"Is that even possible?"

"I'm ready to die for it."

Junhyuk might die and lose an item in the process, but he had decided.

"I'll join you," Sarang said.

"No. It'll take too long. I"ll get the dragon on my own."

The speed buff wouldn't help much now. Sarang was moving in the opposite direction, so if she came, she would just become fodder for enemy kills.

"I have my Spatial Slash," he said with a smile.

Junhyuk trusted himself to do it.

Gongon stared at him and asked, "Are you ready?"

"I won't die."

Junhyuk was willing to die for the cause, but he was not planning on doing it. If he did, he wished he would lose a crappy item. If he ended up losing an item from the Vampire Lord set, he would cry like a baby.

Looking at his allies, he said, "I'll steal it. Push from all sides!"

"Don't worry."

Smiling, Junhyuk disconnected. He didn't want to follow Ronga, but he might get there late. Still, he trusted his speed.

"I'll use my powers as well."

Junhyuk would take the back roads to the Dragon's Valley. The distance of his teleportation had increased, so he ran quickly and teleported whenever he could.

He didn't use his jump skill to get there, but he still made it to the valley. It was his first time using those roads, but he knew where he was going.

He looked down into the valley from the top of a cliff and was stunned. The cliffs surrounding the valley were twice as tall as before. They were a hundred meters tall, but Junhyuk could still see that the battle had started.

Garu was fighting, but a dragon was a dragon. On Earth, that dragon would cause the complete annihilation of humanity. The dragon was playing with Garu as if the hero was a toy.

Ronga was attacking the dragon, and Junhyuk realized that Ronga was stronger than he had initially thought. The dragon was bleeding from the side, and there were bruises on the dragon's legs from Ronga's attacks.

The hero's weapon was superior. A legendary weapon, Ronga had to have upgraded it. Its damage was outstanding.

"Artlan used to upgrade his sabers for more damage."

Junhyuk looked down and saw that Garu was fighting the dragon with 50 percent of his health. Ronga had 70 percent left.

He tried inspecting the dragon, but he was unable to see the dragon's health bar. Looking at it, Junhyuk started moving.

The dragon had a broken wing, and its tail was also damaged. It inhaled deeply, about to breathe fire.

Junhyuk measured the distance from the dragon. He wouldn't reach it with a teleport, but he knew that the dragon was about to fall.

Right as the dragon used his breath, Junhyuk jumped down from the cliffside. The enemies were busy shielding themselves from the breath, so as soon as he landed, he teleported to the dragon.

Ronga rushed through the breath.

Slash!

Ronga cut the dragon, and a big gash appeared on its chest. The dragon was about to die. There was no time for hesitation, so Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash.
