Garu was restraining him, so Junhyuk tried to use his teleportation, but his power was nullified by Garu's power.
He was still stuck when Yagi shot a volley toward him. Junhyuk got hit by the arrows and realized that Garu hadn't lost much of his health. Garu had taunted and been attacked by two heroes and a champion, which meant that while taunting, his defense was buffed.
The arrows careened toward him faster than a regular hero's attack, 1. 5 times faster.
Whiles restrained, Junhyuk got pierced by three arrows. Once he could move again, he slashed Garu. His goal was to figure out the extent of Garu's defense stat.
Luckily, Junhyuk found out that his attacks ignored Garu's defense. He dealt 10 percent of damage to the elephant, and his extra damage skill triggered, so in total, he dealt 15 percent of damage to the hero.
Junhyuk attacked Garu twice while being struck by Yagi's arrows. Within three seconds, four of Yagi's arrows hit him, and he lost 8 percent of his health.
Junhyuk started thinking he had lost too much health when, suddenly, light green powder fell on his head. Sarang was healing him. At the same time, Zaira rushed out from behind Sarang, firing two missiles at Yagi.
Yagi crouched, and her movement speed increased sharply. Her speed was incredible, and while she moved, she was still able to shoot arrows at the allies.
Junhyuk teleported toward the cat, closing in instantly, and slashed at her. Yagi didn't dodge or try to escape. Instead, she continued shooting arrows. The attacks collided, and Yagi smiled a fiendish grin. Suddenly, Junhyuk was slammed by explosions.
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
All of the arrows had hit him, and as they did, they all exploded. Junhyuk gritted his teeth, realizing that the attack had ignored his defense. He lost 30 percent of his health in one go.
Because Junhyuk had been healed by Sarang, he still had about half of his health. Still, the damage was as great as Sarang's healing power.
At that moment, however, Junhyuk saw an opening and attacked. Yagi was very close to him, and her defense stat was rather low. Junhyuk struck Yagi for 12 percent of the hero's health with a single regular attack.
He attacked Yagi twice, and the hero lost 24 percent of her health. Zaira was also attacking Yagi. Junhyuk wanted to keep attacking, but Yagi retreated while shooting at him.
Junhyuk blocked the arrows and wasn't damaged by them, but they still inflicted a damage-over-time effect on him.
Yagi was annoying, and Junhyuk wanted to finish her off.
Garu was facing Sarang. She was circling the enemy hero, trying to disengage because she also wanted to kill Yagi.
Junhyuk teleported again, appearing behind the cat. He slashed at Yagi, but the hero rolled out of the way, dodging the a critical hit. Yagi was still cut, however. The hero didn't have a spatial sense like Junhyuk, but she had strong instincts.
As Yagi rolled, she shot two arrows at Junhyuk, who blocked them, but the damage over time continued to mount.
Without stopping to think, Junhyuk attacked Yagi, who retreated toward Sarang. Yagi changed then. Her demeanor became calm and quiet, and her speed dropped. That's when Junhyuk realized that Yagi had been using her ultimate.
Guessing what had happened, Junhyuk slashed at the cat, who kept retreating while shooting her arrows. They were all striking Junhyuk, but he focused on piercing Yagi's heart with Aksha's Longsword.
The sword lengthened, passing Yagi's arm and piercing her heart. It was a critical hit, and Yagi lost 26 percent of her health.
She only had 40 percent left now. Then, electric arrows pounded against her back, and she lost another 20 percent. Yagi's eyes widened, and Junhyuk realized something then: he could lengthen Aksha's Longsword, but how to make use of it depended on him.
The blade shortened, and he quickly closed in on the cat. Now, he was able to shorten the blade from the tip instead of the hilt, so he got pulled toward Yagi at great speed.
It was a great way to move.
When he got close, Junhyuk stabbed Yagi with the Blood Rune Sword. Her eyes widened, and he sunk Aksha's Longsword deeper into the hero, twisting it in her heart.
Yagi disappeared, and Junhyuk turned back.
Garu was alone now, so Junhyuk used his jump skill to close the gap and land right in front of him. As he landed, Junhyuk slashed the hero. Garu didn't try to dodge the attack. Instead, he blocked it with his massive body.
Garu received 6 percent of damage. His defense was about the same as Ronga's defense, and Ronga was definitely dangerous.
Garu had been attacked by all three allies. Though two of them had weaker items, their items dealt magic damage.
The allies focused on him again, and Garu blew his trunk at Junhyuk. That was one of Garu's powers, a push, and Junhyuk was thrown back while extending his sword.
Garu grabbed the blade of Aksha's Longsword, and Junhyuk used that to close the gap between himself and the hero once more. He was able to do that with Aksha's Longsword now, which made him happy. Once he was close, Junhyuk sliced Garu's thigh with the Blood Rune Sword.
Then, electric arrows and blue beams slammed against the hero, and Garu disappeared.
Junhyuk wasn't sure of who had killed Garu, but he didn't care. While they fought, a hundred allied minions had been lost, so Junhyuk joined the attack on the enemy minions immediately.
The enemy minions were gnolls, and Junhyuk lengthened his blade to cut them down. The shockwaves no longer worked on minions, but because they didn't carry shields, they were easy to strike in bunches.
Sarang and Elise gave him supporting fire, and the enemy minions were massacred in mere moments.
Junhyuk picked up the items dropped by the heroes he killed. Ronga had dropped a bracelet, and Yagi had dropped an earring. Glad to have a new earring, he inspected his items.
—
Feared Canine Bracelet
Attack +20
Health +400
The Feared Canine Bracelet is made out of a wild beast's teeth. It increases attack and health. This item is usually carried by a damager tank.
—
Junhyuk could tell that Ronga's bracelet was more focused on attack than defense. He smiled. The bracelet fit the hero well. Junhyuk remembered that the hero seemed to have a lot of health, and the bracelet certainly boosted health instead of defense.
Junhyuk's piercing stat was high, but his damage seemed weak in comparison to Ronga's.
—
Earring of Speed
Attack Speed +15%
This earring carries no other buff, but it'll increase attack speed significantly.
—
Junhyuk was impressed by the items he had picked up, even considering removing the steel bracelet he owned. By exchanging it with the Feared Canine Bracelet, he would get another hundred health, but he would lose forty defense.
After some thought, he decided to find out how expensive those items were first. He put on the earring since he had lost his. Junhyuk thought he had come up even on the earrings.
He knew he could kill Ronga in a team fight, but Junhyuk wouldn't be able to continue using powers on other enemies. He had to take care of Ronga first whenever they went up against each other.
The enemy team was formidable.
Junhyuk stretched and said, "Let's occupy the buff tower."
He took his minions and destroyed the enemy tower. Then, once he reached the buff tower, he sat down comfortably and contacted Layla and Gongon.
"We've taken the middle."
"OK. We'll need more time, " Gongon said.
Gongon had long range attacks, so he could take pot shots at the enemy to decrease their health before he went for the kill.
Junhyuk started thinking about teaming Rodrey with him.
"How is Layla?"
"She's fighting someone, seemingly stuck at the second watchtower."
The enemy had been able to fight for two straight hours against Layla, and that made him worried.
"Just push from your side, " Junhyuk said.
He was satisfied with what was happening. If Ronga went middle again, the allies would have another hard fight in their hands.
He turned to Elise. She had stood out of the range of the taunt. If she had been closer, she could've used her power to nullify the effects. If she had been by his side, he might've not lost so much health.
Thinking back, he hadn't made good use of her, so he smacked his lips.
The allies took over the buff tower, and after Junhyuk heard the announcement of the buff, he got up.
"Let's keep pushing. I don't know where our enemies are."
The enemy team could only send those three heroes there at that moment. Unless one of the others gave up a side, Junhyuk would be able to fight the three.
Ronga might even have some beef with him now and head straight there.
Elise smiled and said, "We have to go see Bebe."
"We need to check the prices of our items, but we should finish the battle first. Let's go down and join one of the sides."
With the buff, the allies moved quickly. If Ronga did not head middle, Junhyuk would go find him. With the buffed speed, it was definitely possible for him to give support to the others.
Junhyuk wanted to finish the round quickly.
"Let's go."
