BXBX NOVEL Chapter 468 - Danger 1
Chapter 468: Danger 1
Junhyuk continued to attack with his sword thinking he could finish the hero, but when Alondo got hit with the Spatial Collapse, he raised his left hand.
Trot, trot, trot, trot!
Suddenly, a number of skeleton horses appeared. In the Dimensional Battlefield, the number of summoned horses was definitely lower. A least a hundred skeleton horses had appeared this time. Junhyuk could do nothing but stare at them charging at him.
If the skeleton horses got through him, they would charge at the champions. So, gritting his teeth, Junhyuk used his best defensive option: he created another mana blade explosion with Aksha’s Longsword.
The skill wasn’t something that he could use in the Dimensional Battlefield, but the stampede was an ultimate at the battlefield, so would his skill be able to stop the horses?
The explosions were powerful, but there were too many horses.
Boom, boom, boom!
After the explosion, Junhyuk was pushed back without being able to do anything. Even his three-layered sword shield was destroyed by the stamped. Junhyuk was overrun. Aksha’s Longsword was powerful, but Alondo’s ultimate was outstanding.
Junhyuk was launched back, and light green powder fell over his head after he landed. He felt himself regaining his health and ran at full speed toward Alondo.
The hero was still off balance due to the Spatial Collapse. Thinking that it was time he killed Alondo, Junhyuk closed in on the hero and slashed with his longsword.
The sword lengthened, but suddenly, an arrow flew in his direction. Junhyuk twisted his wrist in response, and his longsword bent slightly, blocking the arrow. But, by changing the sword’s path, he failed in attacking Alondo.
Junhyuk clicked his tongue and felt something looming overhead. When he raised his head, he saw Durandal dropping on him.
Boom!
The ground shook, and Junhyuk used his spatial sense to locate the champions. No champions had died, which meant that Durandal was trying to stall him.
Junhyuk wanted to run by Durandal, but the hero extended his right hand and shouted, “Come here!”
With that single phrase, Junhyuk lost his consciousness. He was furious, but only at Durandal.
A taunt. Junhyuk knew he had been taunted, but there was nothing he could do. The enemy in his sights could not be ignored. Epilen and Penslin were still alive, so his situation was extremely precarious.
Craaack!
More lightning bolts crashed from the sky, and Junhyuk regained his composure. He didn’t know how that had happened, but he noticed there was an arrow stuck to his left shoulder, and a dagger was retracting from his rib.
Epilen retreated quickly. At that moment, Junhyuk knew his Spatial Slash had come off cooldown. So, he used it right away on the back of Epilen’s skull.
The assassin moved his head to the side, barely dodging the critical hit. Even so, Epilen didn’t have enough health to withstand the Spatial Slash.
Thuck!
A light, almost muffled sound rang out, and Epilen stopped completely. His skull had been cracked, and right after that, Junhyuk felt something eerie. Epilen’s whole body cracked, and suddenly, it exploded.
Boom, boom, boom!
Junhyuk quickly spun Aksha’s Longsword. Although he didn’t have time to raise three shields, he was able to raise one.
A mass of dark energy rushed toward him. The energy felt stronger than when Epilen was alive.
After that, it dispersed, seeping into the other heroes’ bodies. Junhyuk watched as the enemy heroes regained health after absorbing the dark energy.
“What?!”
At that moment, he knew things had become dire. He had never seen anything like that in the Dimensional Battlefield, but things were different on Earth.
“Shit!” he cursed and pulled out his communication orb. Sarang’s projection appeared, and he asked quickly, “How are things?”
“I’m barely staying alive. I wanted to heal myself, but decided to heal you instead.”
“Did your invulnerability trigger?”
“I haven’t lost all my health yet for it to happen.”
A duel between mages wasn’t easy. Sarang had already used her strongest power, the Thunderstorm. She was keeping herself alive while fighting Dolorac.
Junhyuk turned to Alondo and rushed toward him. As soon as he swung his sword, however, he felt a strong impact against his back.
“Shit!”
Junhyuk knew what it was. That was Durandal’s ultimate.
Junhyuk kept losing health while getting pulled. He hadn’t wanted to attack the tank, but now, his mind had changed.
While being pulled, he pulled the arrow out from his shoulder. A sharp pain radiated from it, but he ignored the pain. As he was getting pulled, a shadow loomed over him. It was the Ghost White Tiger. Junhyuk used his spatial sense to sense the beast.
At that moment, Junhyuk swung Aksha’s Longsword at Durandal’s head. When the hero raised his arm to block, the Ghost White Tiger bit Durandal’s side.
Crack!
Durandal’s armor cracked from the pressure of the bite, but the hero ignored the Ghost White Tiger. Durandal boosted his defense and elbowed Junhyuk. At close range, it was a fitting attack. Junhyuk turned his head to prevent the hit.
Whoosh!
He dodged the hit, but the pressure from the attack scrambled his brain. Junhyuk swung his sword again, but Durandal hid his head within his chest. WIthout being able to strike the head, delivering a critical hit would be hard.
Alondo was already on him, swinging his scythe against Junhyuk, who had to deal with the two heroes. Another arrow was flying at him, so to be more precise, Junhyuk had to deal with three heroes.
Alondo’s combat prowess made things difficult for him, and the arrows made him distracted, complicating things even more.
Junhyuk was almost slashed by the scythe while he blocked the arrow. He certainly thought he was in danger.
“Jeffrey!”
A lasso of purple energy flew out and tied itself around Alondo. The hero was restrained, and Junhyuk walked toward him.
Alondo was the most difficult enemy among the undead team. His sword had not been able to pierce Alondo’s helmet, but with Jeffrey’s power, now that Alondo was tied up, he had to finish the fight.
Alondo wasn’t an easy enemy to kill. The hero swung his scythe again. It was coming down on Junhyuk, and he felt it. This was another one of Alondo’s powers.
He knew he couldn’t block it, so he tried dodging. In a moment, Junhyuk would be able to teleport again, but now wasn’t that time.
The scythe came down on him.
Boom!
Each of the scythe’s slashes through the air left a trail of dark energy. Junhyuk was slammed by that dark energy and pushed back. At the same time, he felt another arrow heading for him.
The arrow passed him and flew like a bolt, piercing Jeffrey’s shield and chestplate.
“Ugh!” Jeffrey groaned.
Junhyuk’s eyes looked extremely cold now. All he could think of was killing Penslin. Sensing another arrow, Junhyuk teleported in that direction. Once he appeared, he could feel Penslin within range of his attacks.
The hero did not run away. Instead, he nocked another arrow even faster. Junhyuk had his acceleration triggered and was closing in. Penslin loosed the arrow, or what had to be an arrow, but it looked more like a rocket of dark energy.
Seeing that, Junhyuk used his sword shield, and the dark energy slammed against it.
Boom!
With the explosion, he was thrown back. He thought back to Penslin’s powers. The hero had an arrow shot that pushed his opponent, but Junhyuk didn’t think it would’ve been that powerful on Earth.
Alondo chased after him, so Junhyuk teleported again.
He appeared behind Penslin and swung his sword at the hero. Penslin dove forward to escape the strike, but Aksha’s Longsword was aimed at the sniper’s head.
At the same time, Penslin moved his head to the side, and the blade struck his left shoulder.
Crack!
The hero’s shoulder was shattered, and shadow hands came out of the ground to grab Junhyuk. There were countless hands. Though Penslin’s shoulder had been shattered, the dark energy reattached Penslin’s arm to his torso.
Penslin nocked another arrow then. If Junhyuk received a headshot, he would die instantly. If he got hit in a weak spot, he would probably also die.
He cocked his head, so the arrow tore through his ear. Junhyuk wanted to move, but he couldn’t. Penslin had used his ultimate. The Dimensional Battlefield limited the active time of ultimates, but would that happen on Earth?
Junhyuk had to free himself. He focused on Aksha’s Longsword, and the sword lengthened. He used a mana blade to cut through the dark energy tying him up.
Penslin was a good distance from him now, but Alondo had closed the gap and was swinging his scythe.
“Things can’t continue like this!”
Junhyuk gritted his teeth and parried the scythe. It wasn’t an easy feat, but he was extremely focused. He couldn’t focus that much while training, so he thought that was a good chance for him to break through his limits.
Still, he had to risk his life to do it. However, his life was already at risk.
Junhyuk swung his sword at Alondo’s head again. That battle would be a series of dangerous exchanges.
