Chapter 481: Variables 2

Junhyuk stood in front of the portal and looked at his group. He meant to take the minions through the portal with him.

“We’ll go left.”

“Sure. I’ll go support the right path.”

Junhyuk and Elise would support Gongon, and Sarang would join Layla and Rodrey. Tros’ range was significant, but Sarang’s Thunderstorm also hit from long range.

He looked at his minions and divided the surviving ones between the two teams. He would take seventy-two with him.

“We’ll appear by the enemy’s left tower,” he told them decisively.

They would pincer the enemies from the rear. The group would serve to block the path of any retreating enemies, and Junhyuk had his teleportations to use for attack. If that didn’t work, he could always raised his force field and attack protected.

Garu had to be on the left. It wouldn’t be difficult to kill him, and if Yagi had joined Garu, Junhyuk was confident that he could kill them both.

Junhyuk entered the portal. As soon as he did, he appeared on the opposite side. After coming out, he didn’t wait for the others before he started moving.

When Elise and the minions came out of the portal, he smiled at them and said, “We’ll attack them from the rear.”

The group moved, and he tried to contact Gongon.

“I’m buffed now and winning. What’s wrong?”

“I’m heading your way. I can reach you in an hour. Can you kill the enemy within that time?”

“It won’t be easy.”

Gongon was capable of long range attacks, but only if he triggered his ultimate.

“Then, buy us some time.”

Junhyuk and the allies moved out. His acceleration had worked, but it had a weak point. He could only trigger it when he landed a hit against an enemy. On top of that, the rate of success for triggering it was only 10 percent.

When two swords clashed, it was hard to land an accurate blow. He had to pierce through his enemy’s defense and deliver a regular attack successfully to get a 10-percent chance to trigger acceleration.

Whenever he was able to accelerate, however, the set’s acceleration was superior to his own. Enemies couldn’t do much against it, and he had proven that point.

Junhyuk looked at his swords. He had Aksha’s Longsword in his right hand since he was more used to it. Dentra’s Magic Sword was in his left, but its attack stat was the highest of all.

Smacking his lips, he swung them both. He wasn’t confident in wielding Aksha’s Longsword with his left hand. Even if he could control his muscles, it felt unnatural for him to do it.

Smacking his lips again, he muttered, “Nothing I can do about it.”

The damage of Aksha’s Longsword was lower, so Junhyuk would have to upgrade it. Up to that point, all of the upgrades had a 100-percent success rate, but as he upgraded his swords more, that success rate would go down.

Junhyuk wanted to give Aksha’s Longsword an upgrade above Dentra’s Magic Sword. After making up his mind, he turned to Elise, who asked, “Are there any buff monsters around here?”

“There should be a Ghost White Tiger nearby.”

“Can we kill it first?”

Junhyuk knew he would still have plenty of time after killing the Ghost White Tiger. Now that he had new items, killing it should be easy. Because of his spatial sense, which could easily spot them, he was the archenemy of Ghost White Tigers.

The allies started hunting for the Ghost White Tiger. They had to change routes, but it would only eat up ten minutes of their time.

Junhyuk picked up the pace and reached an empty clearing, where the Ghost White Tiger was with its ghost tigers.

He turned to Elise and said, “Stay here. I’ll go deal with them.”

“I want to help.”

Junhyuk took a moment to think. A Ghost White Tiger’s attack couldn’t kill her in a single hit, and her attacks might land critical hits on it.

She summoned Zaira and said, “We’ll attack it together.”

Zaira fired a barrage of small missiles that acted as a net over the area.

Boom, boom, boom!

The explosions made the Ghost White Tiger visible, and she focused on it. Junhyuk swung Aksha’s Longsword at the same time.

The ghost tigers came out of stealth to attack Elise, but Aksha’s Longsword slashed through them.

Elise fired her lasers, but the ghost tigers dodged them. Still, Aksha’s Longsword made mincemeat of them.

Junhyuk could sense a being between the ghost tigers. It was the Ghost White Tiger, who was stealthing again.

The Ghost White Tiger in the dimensional battlefield was quite strong, but as it closed in on him, Junhyuk teleported.

He appeared right in front of the Ghost White Tiger, who swung its claws at Junhyuk. The hero ducked and stabbed the tiger with Dentra’s Magic Sword.

The Ghost White Tiger turned away from the stab, but its shoulder got hit.

[You’ve triggered acceleration. For the next three seconds, your movement and attack speeds will be increased by 50 percent.]

Junhyuk accelerated and used Dentra’s Sword to slash at it nonstop. They were regular attacks, but they felt like he was using a power.

The Ghost White Tiger couldn’t defend itself and fell before Junhyuk. When it disappeared, Junhyuk’s eyes beamed. A fang had been left behind.

Junhyuk picked it up and inspected it.

Ghost White Tiger’s Fang (ingredient)

When synthesized with an item, the fang imbues power to that item. Increases critical hit rate by 5 percent.

—

It was his first time picking up a rare drop from a Ghost White Tiger. Elise’s eyes sparkled as she walked toward him.

“Give it to me for a moment.”

He handed her the fang, and suddenly, Elise’s entire body shone brightly. Noticing that the fang had disappeared, Junhyuk was curious about what had happened.

“What happened?”

“Just like I theorized!”

She smiled and extended a hand to touch him, buffing him.

[Elise, the champion, has buffed you. Your extra attack chance increases by 10 percent, and your critical hit rate increases by 5 percent. These buffs will last five minutes.]

Junhyuk couldn’t believe it. Elise had evolved her power, and now, she could give two buffs at the same time.

“I didn’t know I would be able to give two buffs at the same time.”

“We should continue killing buffs monsters and farming synthesis items.”

If the buffs all stacked with Elise’s power, they should buy synthesis items from Bebe to make her even stronger.

“Next time, we’ll ask Bebe for synthesis items and run a few tests.”

Junhyuk was curious to know if only items dropped by buff monsters had synthesis effects, or if there were others with it as well.

He knew that any buff could cause a meaningful change to a battle.

Elise changed the subject and said, “Let’s hurry. Yagi might be there, and if so, Gongon will be in danger.”

“Gongon will be fine. We can catch up to them very quickly.”

They had received the buff tower’s buff, so they could reach Gongon in no time. Junhyuk took the lead, and Elise followed him. They hurried.

—

He reached the place where Gongon was fighting. Yagi hadn’t taken the minions with her. Only she could use the speed buff that made Junhyuk unable to keep up with her.

Gongon was by the watchtower with his minions. He had a serious expression on his face as he hid behind the watchtower to dodge Yagi’s arrows. He popped his face out from time to time to curse at her.

Junhyuk contacted him.

“Gon, we’re here.”

“Yeah?! Since that one joined, I’ve been exasperated. What’s up with that hog?”

Junhyuk understood then why Garu’s health was full and found the hog in the battlefield.

“He has a healing power. I don’t know if he’s a novice or an expert, but he could definitely change the outcome of future battles. We have to kill him.”

“You do it.”

“I will. Then, I’ll kill Yagi. You fight Garu.”

“OK.”

Junhyuk turned to Elise and said, “Be careful.”

“Take my buff first.”

As soon as Elise buffed him, Junhyuk jumped out. Of the enemies, Yagi spotted him first. She shot arrows at him, but he did not dodge them.

He had Dentra’s Magic Sword, and so, he could ignore her potshots for now.

The enemy minions attacked him, and he watched as the hog tried to run away. Junhyuk didn’t want to use his Spatial Slash, so he used the minions as stepping stones and jumped. He landed right on top of the hog’s head, swinging his sword down at him.

Slash!

The sword split the hog’s head in two. He hadn’t figured out if he was a novice or an expert, but in any case,the warthog couldn’t survive his attack.

After the hog died, he turned to Yagi. Staring at his eyes, she triggered her arrow explosion on him.

Boom!

He lost 15 percent of his health, which was much less than before. Right now, Junhyuk was the worst enemy of anyone using magic attacks.

He ran toward Yagi and used his Spatial Slash with Dentra’s sword. Yagi triggered her speed buff and tried to escape. The slash missed her neck, but it still hit an artery, a critical hit.

Junhyuk continued to attack her.

Thanks to the buff, his attacks were all critical hits.

“Argh!” Yagi screamed and disappeared. His sword dealt even more damage now, and his glove increased the damage of all critical hits.

“OK!”

Only Garu remained.
