Chapter 576: Final Round 2

It was a true crapshoot, but he knew that and he still trusted his luck.

He applied the stones, and the upgrades failed. He was down three upgrades, and that made him tear up, but he continued. He had spent all of his money and used all of the stones, and by the end, he had managed to get his weapons to +18.

Both swords were at that level now, and he was satisfied with that.

He had failed to get them from +19 to +20 three times, losing the upgrade in the process. He had no gold left, but he was stronger.

Sarang and Layla were both holding rainbow weapons.

“You both got them to +20?”

“Isn’t that cool?!”

Junhyuk laughed and said, “I’m jealous.”

Looking at him, Layla said, “But, you wield dual swords.”

“I’m still jealous.”

Elise walked up toward him. Pieces of her Red Dragon set were rainbow-colored now.

“Elise?”

“I got my breatplace and greaves to +20.”

Her armor was displaying the effects of the upgrades. She had succeeded in getting two items to +20, which meant her luck was extremely high. She laughed and added, “Just like you, I spent all my gold.”

Everyone spent all of the gold they had. They had spent a lot of gold in the previous battles, but this time, they spent their gold like it was their last day alive.

All of them had upgraded their items.

Junhyuk smiled and said, “Let’s give it our all.”

Everyone nodded, and Junhyuk turned to Gongon and asked, “Which way are you headed?”

“I should go to the buff tower first. I don’t want you to be alone in the first engagement.”

“You are heading off right after?”

“I’ll hunt a buff monster before heading for the jungle.”

Gongon wanted to jungle, so he put Elise in Gongon’s usual position. With her items upgraded, Elise should be able to endure most attacks. However, The enemies’ items were probably powerful as well.

Artlan’s team had to have upgraded their items too. For their participation in the tournament, both teams had won millions of gold coins.

Nevertheless, the allies couldn’t give up the buff tower. They would fight together first, and then, Gongon would head off to the jungle.

It would be the first time in a long time that Gongon would be fighting with him.

“Shall we?”

“Yes.”

They walked out of the castle and headed in their respective directions. None of the groups was taking as many minions with them as normal, only 150 each.

It could be a long battle, so the allies wanted to conserve the minions.

Junhyuk headed off with Gongon. On the way, Gongon said he was tired, so Junhyuk gave him a piggyback ride. Gongon was a powerful hero, and there was no way he was actually tired, but Junhyuk didn’t complain.

He followed the middle path while inspecting the Dimensional Battlefield. Due to is purple sky, Junhyuk noticed that there was something different about the place. There was no dimensional wall surrounding the battlefield. Instead, there was something else.

“It looks like the space in between dimensions.”

“What are you talking about?”

Junhyuk replied, “My Dimensional Shift may be restricted here.”

“Why?”

“This place isn’t a dimension of its own, but a place built in between dimensions, like the space a crossed when I used my Dimensional Shift.

“Yeah? Can you select a coordinate?”

“Wait a sec.” Junhyuk gripped his sword and shouted, “Select coordinate!” Soon after, shaking his head, he said, “I can’t.”

“Right… I was expecting a lot, so that’s disappointing.”

Junhyuk gave Gongon a bitter smile and said, “Maybe I was expecting too much.”

His Dimensional Shift was like an ultimate. Emptying his mind of the disappointment, he walked on.

After he climbed to the top of the mountain, he saw the opponents on the other side. Artlan’s team had human minions with it. Junhyuk himself had been a minion back then.

The minions for the two teams were the same, so the heroes would decide the issue. He looked at the enemies coming up. Both teams couldn’t let the buff tower be taken.

Two heroes appeared on the enemies’ side: Artlan an Vera. Artlan looked the same as always, but Vera looked completely different.

She was covered in flames from head to toe. Immediately, Junhyuk could tell that Vera had buffed her fire attribute. She looked overpowering.

The weapons of both of the heroes were shining in rainbow colors.

“You both got to +20?”

Artlan smiled and said, “I tried and I tried and I finally got my weapons to +20.”

Junhyuk had been dumbstruck when Gongon had managed to get his to +20, but Artlan had done it as well. Thinking back on it, Artlan had always focused on weapon upgrades.

Junhyuk bit his lip. He had been thinking he would have the advantage since his weapons were legendary items.

Surprisingly, Vera had also upgraded her weapon. She was a mage and a damager, so would anyone be able to survive her attacks now? Junhyuk had spent all of his gold on buffing his attacks, but now, he was thinking he should’ve buffed his defense instead.

Gongon hopped down from his back and said, “Don’t worry. I’m here.”

Junhyuk smiled. He and Gongon and Helen were there together, and they would fight on.

Someone walked up from behind Vera then. The person was wearing a white robe, and they were someone Junhyuk had never seen. They were tall.

A new champion.

Vera chuckled and said, “I have a successor for my tower now. The name is Kaigel. He’s a new champion, so go easy on him.”

The fact that he was a new champion made Junhyuk relax. He and Gongon could take massive hits, so they had nothing to worry about with that champion. However, during the semifinal round, the allies had met a champion that could have killed them.

Because of the white robe, Junhyuk could guess the champion’s affinity. He was an ice mage, and Junhyuk couldn’t allow him to make a difference.

Junhyuk looked back nervously, and Gongon said, “Don’t worry. We’ll win.”

The enemies were strong, but in the Dimensional Battlefield, everyone was restricted. The allies might be lacking in items, but Junhyuk thought that their powers were better.

The activation time of Artlan’s and Vera’s ultimates both took a while. The allies could win.

“I trust you.”

“Ha-ha-ha! Please, do. This had been upgraded to +22.”

“What?!”

Gongon said nonchalantly, “I succeeded this time. It looks the same as when it was +20 though. Maybe it’ll change again at +30.”

Junhyuk was speechless. A dragon’s luck was absurd.

“Let’s go.”

Junhyuk stepped forward, and Gongon followed behind him. Helen followed behind Gongon. As they closed in, Gongon shouted, “Attack!”

The minions ran forward, shielding themselves with their shields.

The enemy minions were also human, so when the allied minions so them, they were surprised and stopped.

Artlan shouted, “Kill them!”

Artlan pulled out a gem, and enemy minions’ eyes changed. They attacked, and the allied minions started losing.

Gongon shouted at them, “Don’t just die! Fight!”

The allied minions regained themselves and clashed hard against the enemy minions.

Junhyuk passed by the minions and hesitated. He had fought against Artlan before, and the enemy minions were human. He didn’t feel like attacking them.

His anger toward the managers grew.

Junhyuk closed in and checked out the enemies. Kaigel had ice powers, but he didn’t think the champion’s range would reach him. He focused on being aware of Vera and Artlan, unsure of whether their powers had evolved. It had been a long time since he had fought with them.

His own powers had evolved in that time, so he was sure that the enemies’ powers had as well. He closed in cautiously.

Junhyuk looked at Vera, who was following behind Artlan. He hadn’t seen any of the items she was wearing before, and her new weapon had been massively upgraded. Still, he thought he could kill her.

Junhyuk would test her defenses.

When Vera came within range, Junhyuk did not hesitate. He immediately used his Dimensional Slash. A fight was a fight.

However, Vera’s shape changed. Her armor turned completely into flames that engulfed her. The Dimensional Slash hit, but Vera didn’t lose any health.

Junhyuk was speechless. At that moment, Kaigel extended his hands forward, and the ground froze. The ice reached all the way up to Junhyuk.

The attacked covered a distance of seventy meters, and with that, Junhyuk realized that Kaigel would be a difficult champion. Artlan and Vera stepped on the ice and slid toward him, closing in.

Junhyuk looked at Gongon, who smirked and said, “Wait, I’m going!”

Gongon enlarged and threw himself forward, but the ice road decreased Gongon’s and Junhyuk’s movement speeds. Kaigel’s power decreased the enemies’ speed while increasing the allies’ speed.

Artlan was closing in on him. It was time for a clash of swords.

Vera’s flame garb died down, but she was completely unaffected by the Dimensional Slash. Her items had protected her, and that was shocking.

Junhyuk didn’t have access to the Dimensional Slash anymore as the two enemies headed for him. His blood was boiling, but he knew that Artlan was not pulling any punches.

“I’m going!”

Junhyuk ran forward, and Artlan and Vera ran to meet him.
