Chapter 151: High Ranking Sorcerer 1

Translator: - - Editor: - -

Junhyuk crushed the tower and advanced, but he felt like he shouldn’t advance too far. If he did, he might encounter a group of enemies, and that would be difficult.

"Should we bring more lizardmen?"

There were only ten lizardmen left. With that amount, it wouldn’t be easy to siege the castle.

"Then, you should go."

"We should all go. You’ll be alone and you might meet an enemy."

"I should kill them."

Junhyuk had thought that he could have a normal conversation with Kaljaque for a moment, but he gave up on that idea.

"We should move together."

"Do what you like."

Kaljaque hummed and swung his staff while he walked, and Junhyuk sighed.

"Nothing is happening on Aktur’s side."

"Drakey is hard to deal with. Aktur will have a hard time with him."

"What are Drakey’s powers?"

"Why are you so curious?" Kaljaque said, but he thought for a moment and continued, "Drakey has two heads and four legs, and he shoots soundwaves. They are dangerous. They shake your organs."

"What is the range?"

"It’s longer than my rush, but I’m not sure."

Junhyuk wanted to ask how he had fought him, but didn’t and asked about other things instead, "What about the other powers?"

"He can escape like an eel. For a certain time, no attack will work against him."

It sounded like an absolute dodge. Junhyuk would have to be careful. He could escape the Spatial Slash that way, and that meant that every second counted in the fight.

"For how long?"

"About 3 seconds?"

Junhyuk realized that his own powers were awesome.

"Right."

Kaljaque crossed his arms and said, "He has one more frustrating power. It’s like summoning a tornado, but he makes a water pillar and sucks everything around it. It deals a lot of damage and it hurts a lot."

"How big is the space the sucking force affects?"

"About a five-meter radius?"

So within a ten-meter diameter, it sucked the opponents and inflicted damage. It would be hard to deal with. He could be the strongest enemy among the other champions, but Aktur was dealing with him for now.

Aktur might actually be completely different from Kaljaque and actually be OK.

"What are Aktur’s powers?"

Kaljaque thought Junhyuk was asking too many questions, but his eyes were so focused and serious that he answered, "Since he is a mummy, he has a cursing power. When he curses the opponents, they slow down."

"What is his range?"

Kaljaque shook his head a little and took five steps forward and said, "This much?"

Kaljaque could only give estimates on everything, but Junhyuk listened to him carefully. That Dimensional Battlefield’s three-on-three confrontation would be the team battles. He wanted to prepare for them and learn more about Aktur’s powers.

Kaljaque thought of something and extended his arms.

"Finally, he has the power to summon skeleton soldiers. He summons three skeleton soldiers, and they fight with us. They deal some damage."

Junhyuk would ask Aktur about his skeleton soldiers and how much damage they could inflict.

"Do they work on enemy champions?"

"They stay active for twenty seconds, and the power has a long cooldown, but together, they deal the same amount of damage as Aktur himself."

That meant that each skeleton dealt about 30 percent of Aktur’s damage. It was a lot. If they lured the enemies in and summoned the skeletons, it would be like there were two Akturs fighting.

Junhyuk thought he could kill one enemy right away when the team battle began. Of course, Kaljaque’s powers weren’t bad either. The howling had a paralysis effect, and his rush would hold at least one enemy down. However, Kaljaque didn’t have a clue about how to time his attacks.

Junhyuk had learned a lot about the enemies he had fought already, but he hadn’t met Drakey and was curious about him.

"Does Drakey have high attack or high defense?"

"It’s about the same?"

That meant that Drakey was a balanced type, and Junhyuk was about to ask something else when he heard a soft voice.

[The High-Ranking Sorcerer in the Swamp of Despair has awoken. Lend him the help he needs, and he will give you a reward.]

Junhyuk listened to it and looked at Kaljaque.

"Kaljaque, where is the High-Ranking Sorcerer?"

"In the Swamp of Despair. Go in from here, and they will be gathering there. You won’t get lost."

"OK. I’ll head there. You go back to the tower."

"Why?"

"Just in case. If two enemies come after you, it could be difficult."

Kaljaque thought for a moment and said, "Don’t worry. You go. The buff will be useful when you get it."

"OK. I’ll return soon."

Junhyuk headed to the High-Ranking Sorcerer, and Kaljaque smiled and murmured, "The enemy has also sent someone to the High-Ranking Sorcerer. If anyone comes this way, it’ll be just one of them, so why should I bother going back?"

Kaljaque rested his staff across his shoulders and signaled for the lizardmen.

"Let’s go," he said and headed toward the enemy camp.

---

Junhyuk headed to where the High-Ranking Sorcerer was. He had an item that increased his speed and thought he would get there first.

He ran for a while and saw a few of the monsters in the Swamp of Despair. Perhaps he could take a mana stone or a bloodstone from that place back with him, but the important thing was to get the buff.

Junhyuk slashed through some monsters on the way and dashed forward. He ran until the road ended, and a huge swamp appeared ahead of him. There was an island in the middle of the swamp, and he thought that was where the sorcerer was sealed.

Junhyuk saw stones sticking out of the swamp at three-meter intervals and ran. On his way to the island, he realized he was the first to arrive. However, once he stepped on a stone, a person appeared on the other side.

It was Gyulsean. When she saw Junhyuk, she started running quickly. Junhyuk thought that she might have difficulty hopping through the stones because her bottom half was that of a horse, but she scoffed at him and moved in a way that almost seemed like she was flying. They would both get to the island at the same time, and Junhyuk thought he might have to fight her.

Gyulsean got there first and shot an her arrow at him. Junhyuk blocked it, but he thought he was going to fall from the stone path, so he teleported and started running again. She hadn’t expected Junhyuk to teleport, so she got nervous and pulled out her spear.

"This place is not for you!"

Gyulsean’s stab was much faster than Lugos’, but Junhyuk saw the spear coming toward him and responded calmly. He didn’t want to block because he could fall in the process, so he simply moved his head and dodged.

Gyulsean’s stab was fast, but Junhyuk had fought heroes that were faster, so he easily dodged her attacks. He approached her and swung the Frozen Rune Sword. Gyulsean had high attack and movement speeds, and he wanted to decrease them.

A white shockwave expanded from the strike, and Gyulsean was slowed down. She didn’t care about her lower speeds, however, and swung her spear. That time, Junhyuk used his sword to block.

Clung!

The shock sent him off to the side, but he made it on the the island. On solid ground, Junhyuk had no reason to lose.

Junhyuk was about to attack when Gyulsean stabbed at him with her spear. He fell to the ground, and Gyulsean pierced his body with it. She wanted to throw him. That was her power. She had been attacking normally and suddenly switched to her power. It was something she learned to do after spending a long time in battlefields.

Junhyuk couldn’t respond. He was hooked on the spear and launched in the air. Meanwhile, he remained calm. He had seen the same tactic used on Kaljaque. She could only launch him about ten meters, and Junhyuk wanted to know the exact distance.

Kaljaque had said it was about ten meters, but now Junhyuk knew it was ten meters. Before he landed, he teleported and appeared above Gyulsean’s head, swinging the Blood Rune Sword down. Gyulsean barely sidestepped and blocked his attack.

Clung!

Junhyuk raised the Frozen Rune Sword and attacked. Again she blocked it with her spear and moved to the side. He landed and stared at her. She had 85 percent of her health left, and Junhyuk kept looking at her while moving to the center of the island.

Gyulsean’s stabbing motions restrained his movements, and he realized why Kaljaque couldn’t get out of her range at the tower. She had kept him contained. Junhyuk knew that if he fought her, he would end up with his back to the swamp.

He took a step forward, straining himself. The spear grazed his shoulder, and Junhyuk got even closer and hit the spear.

Clung!

She was skilled with her spear, but Junhyuk’s continuous attacks were hard to defend against. Gyulsean was getting tired, and he sensed the victory was his. When her health dropped to 70 percent, he would kill her with one use of the Spatial Slash. At that point, her health was at 75 percent.

Junhyuk wanted to keep attacking, and she was still stabbing at him. His own movements had to be big to escape from her attacks. Her big swings would reveal her weak spots as well.

Then, he decided to distance himself. It was time to use the Spatial Slash. However, suddenly, Gyulsean rushed.

Boom!

She was using her power, and the way she connected it with her regular attacks was really smooth. Junhyuk was pushed away.

He bounced five meters back, and his feet touched the swamp.

[You have fallen in the Swamp of Despair. Your ability to escape has decreased by 70 percent, and your movement speed has decreased by 95 percent. If you don’t leave the swamp within ten seconds, you will die.]

Junhyuk stepped back on the ground, and Gyulsean was drawing her bow and smiling. He just stared her down.

Gyulsean’s bow had a long range, but compared to Diane’s shooting speed, Gyulsean was twice as slow.

So, he wanted to wait for the first arrow and then attack. Gyulsean let go of the bowstring, and the arrow made a loud noise, flying toward Junhyuk. He didn’t wait any longer and used his jump skill.

While in the air, he used the Spatial Slash.

"Ugh!"

She had looked up at him when he jumped, raising her head and leaving her neck exposed. Blood started gushing out of it. She had 5 percent of her health left and switched to the spear.

Junhyuk landed and quickly ran toward her. They were very close, and she tried to stab the middle of his forehead.

Junhyuk didn’t dodge. Instead, he released his force field, and the spear bounced off of it. His sword went through her heart, and Gyulsean lost the rest of her health. Junhyuk stepped on her body to pull the sword out.

Her body fell into the swamp.

"Yeah, you go in there."

[You’ve killed Gyulsean and earned 3,000G.]
