novelGetting Buffed 3
| ← Ch.357 | Ch.359 → |
The lobsters were blocking him, so he slashed through them and ran. The humanoid lobsters were wielding their claws dangerously, but they all looked slow to him.
Even without acceleration, he could easily slash them down.
As he slashed the lobsters without rest, the allied minions gained a little advantage. Meanwhile, Malone screamed and shouted.
"Nevermind about the minions! Help me!"
Junhyuk was slashing the lobsters on his way to Malone. In any event, he had to deal with the lobsters as well and he thought the allied minions were in more danger than Malone at that moment.
Junhyuk checked on Malone's health. The wizard thought he was superior to Junhyuk, but he only had 5 percent of his health left. Junhyuk thought about using his jump skill.
To cross the lobsters and allied minions fighting, he had to use it. Junhyuk looked toward Ellencia. Since the two had started fighting, Ellencia had lost another 6 percent of her health, leaving her with 80 percent.
Malone's eyes were anxious, and as he looked at the wizard, Junhyuk shouted, "Run toward the watchtower!"
Each team also had a watchtower near the central buff tower, and Junhyuk didn't have time to be respectful. Malone, who was shielding himself with minions while running away, shouted, "Do you want me to die?"
Junhyuk was angry, but he maintained his patience. Malone was moving around with the allied minions, so even with Junhyuk's massive speed, he couldn't attack Ellencia before she got a whip attack off on the wizard.
Malone grabbed another minion and held him in front of himself to block Ellencia's attack.
"With the exception of the front line minions, the rest of you attack the horned woman!" Junhyuk shouted.
The allied minions had all been engaging the lobsters, but now, some of them turned and attacked Ellencia. As the minions aimed for her, she frowned and jumped, stepping on the minions' shoulders and running toward Malone.
Junhyuk frowned as he watched her. He had tried to stop her, but he had created stepping stones for her instead.
Ellencia sped up from a minion to the other and whipped Malone's back harshly.
Crack!
"Ugh!"
Malone faded, and Junhyuk, who had slashed a few more lobsters, jumped on their shoulders and used them as stepping stones like Ellencia, running her way.
Ellencia bit her lower lip and said, "Looks like you've used all your powers. You are fearless." She had watched him use all of his powers, and although his cooldowns had decreased, he still had to wait for them to return.
Junhyuk hadn't wasted much time killing his enemies, so his cooldowns were still just starting. Thinking about them, he frowned. He had only taken a short time to kill Kamel, and Malone had nearly died during the same short interval. How weak was that wizard?
Malone's attack stat wasn't high at all, so he should at least have some defense. Junhyuk grimaced as he stepped on the last lobster and jumped toward Ellencia. Watching him jump, she cackled.
Even though he was strong, he had already used all of his powers. That he was still willing to deal with her was funny to her.
Ellencia whipped her fire whip at him. She was a mid-range attacker, and her whip travelled twenty meters, flying straight toward him. Junhyuk, on the other hand, suddenly triggered acceleration while facing the whip. The whip fluttered in the air, but he could tell precisely where it was headed.
Junhyuk dodged the whip and closed in on her. Ellencia, who had to withdraw her whip as he approached, smiled.
"Thanks for getting closer to me."
As she spoke, she touched her lips with her hands and blew a kiss at him. Her head had horns, but she looked extremely beautiful. Her eyes were particularly charming.
An angel from the sky, but could an angel look so beautiful? She looked so passionate, so luscious, that his heart was pounding in his chest.
"Ha-ha-ha!"
Cra-crack!
Once whipped, Junhyuk regained himself. Ellencia was smiling, and he realized she had just used her power on him. He scowled hard, and she laughed at him and said, "Did you enjoy me that much?"
Junhyuk did not answer her. Instead, he gripped his swords tightly and ran toward her. Ellencia had used her charm to distance herself from him. She maintain that distance, but his speed was faster than hers.
Ellencia bit her lower lip and whipped at him again. The tip of the whip turned into eight, and as they all hit the ground, a flaming wall rose in front of him. Junhyuk had no way to dodge it. He could only cover his eyes and step through it.
He had regained all of his health killing Kamel. Ellencia had used a power on him to whip him. The whip dealt 5 percent damage to his health, but because he was entranced, it was a critical, which took another 3 percent from him, combined for a total of 8 percent.
Just now, the fire whip flame wall cost him another 4 percent of his health. Her attacks had great range, but their damage wasn't very high.
Junhyuk closed in on her, and Ellencia frowned, swinging her fire whip and saying, "Wild men aren't charming at all!"
Junhyuk now thought she was horned and ugly. Before, when she had used her power on him, he had thought her the most beautiful woman ever. Now, however, he had nothing to say. He also did not want to insult himself in the process.
He dodged her whip attack, and Ellencia smiled. His sword had penetrated her chest, and as she turned translucent, she said, "Ha-ha-ha! You got me!"
He had heard her voice from behind him, and as he turned to look, he saw her standing there. Another Ellencia was standing in front of him.
"Shit!"
Ellencia attacked him from the front and the back.
Crack, crack!
Junhyuk did not care about receiving the damage, but he was being whipped, which made him frustrated. He lost another 10 percent of his health.
"Is this her ultimate?"
Junhyuk waited for the real her to reappear since it seemed like she had disappeared, and after the attack was over, the two Ellencias became one again.
Junhyuk stabbed her as soon as he saw her. Ellencia looked at the sword through her chest. It was a critical hit, and she lost 44 percent of her health.
She was able to retreat, and once she was away, she shouted, "Is that your ultimate?!"
Junhyuk had only used a regular attack, but he did not answer her. He knew he would be able to kill her with a Spatial Slash. Without saying anything, he closed in and slashed at her again and again. Ellencia kept retreating while whipping at him, but he dodged it every time.
Suddenly, her whip moved like a living snake and wrapped itself around him. The fire whip was alive and climbing toward his head. Meanwhile, he checked out his health. The restraining power dealt fixed damage to him. As a power, it was very annoying, but he only lost 6 percent of his health from it.
Ellencia was now running away. Her fire whip had split in two. One part was still wrapped around Junhyuk, and she held the other in her hand while running.
Ellencia had been shocked by his damage, and now, she used the minions as stepping stones to get away.
Once he could move again, Junhyuk chased after her. When they were twenty meters apart, he teleported and grabbed her from behind. Ellencia had no idea of what was happening as he stabbed her through the back.
"Aaarrgh!!" she screamed, dropping from a minion's shoulder. Junhyuk dropped to the ground next to her fading body and the bracelet she had dropped next to it.
As he picked it up, Ellencia had a chance to speak, and she asked, "Is this the Spatial Slash?"
Junhyuk looked at her, but turned to kill the lobsters heading his way. He would massacre them. He would kill all fifty lobsters. It would be annoying, but it would be easy. The lobsters were fighting the allied minion. After he had killed them all, he checked on the surviving minions.
While fighting the lobsters, twelve allied minions had died, and seven were injured.
Looking at them, he said, "Go back to the watchtower and take a rest."
The minions looked at them and then took the injured back to the watchtower. He watched them go and then looked at the buff tower with the flags.
Once he stepped within it, he heard Ariel's voice.
[You are now inside Nightmare Mountain's buff tower. If you keep the tower for five minutes, your team will receive a buff. If more allies join you in protecting the tower, the buff will trigger more quickly. ]
More people would trigger the buff faster. Junhyuk wished he had kept Malone alive, but the wizard had not listened.
After five minutes had passed, he heard Ariel's voice again.
[You've taken Nightmare Mountain's buff tower. For the next three hours, your entire team will gain a 15 percent increase to health recovery and movement speed, and a 10 percent increase to attack. ]
Junhyuk had just learned how important it was to take the buff tower. His movement speed would increase for the next three hours, and with it, he could go anywhere. On the way, he could even kill a buff monster. If the buffs stacked, he would only get stronger. Junhyuk was especially fond of the 10 percent buff to attack.
"I can kill them all with my regular attack."
Junhyuk wanted to destroy the enemy tower, so he looked toward the minions. He could do it with them.
After thinking about it, he walked toward the enemy watchtower alone. He had been buffed, and his damage had increased, so he decided to let the watchtower's archers hit him as he brought it down. Once he fell within their range, the archers started attacking him.
He let himself get hit once and smiled.
"Only 1 percent."
He did not need the allied minions. His cooldowns were all over, so there was no need for them.
Junhyuk teleported next to the tower, and the archers focused on him. There, he raised his force field, and the arrows bounced off of it. He started attacking the watchtower then.
All towers had a force field now, and he had to bring it down to be able to damage both the tower and the archers. Once it was gone, another ten seconds went by before the tower fell, destroyed by him single-handedly. He frowned as he watched it go down.
In those ten seconds, fifteen arrows hit his force field. The archers attacked him every three seconds.
"I should have brought the minions."
He could have minions distracting the archers, while others attacked the watchtower. Each minion dealt 1 percent of damage directly to the tower, going straight through the force field around it.
Junhyuk walked back toward the minions and looked at his new items: Mantes' glove, Kamel's boots, and Ellencia's bracelet.
