Doctor Tula was smiling at Junhyuk.
"You aren't scary at all."
Junhyuk stood in front of Sarang, and the doctor shook his head.
"I came back here to kill you. I can't let you get away."
Junhyuk measured the distance between them: twenty meters. Both Adolphe and Doctor Tula could attack from that range, so he and Sarang stepped back. Doctor Tula, still smiling, approached slowly.
"Don't think about running away. I won't let you get away."
Junhyuk thought for a moment. He could use the Spatial Slash and take 40 percent of the doctor's health. After that, he had to take another 20 percent of Doctor Tula's health within thirty seconds, but the doctor's attack stat was really high. Fighting for thirty seconds wouldn't be easy.
"What are you going to do?" Sarang whispered in his ear.
"I'm thinking."
If there were two heroes, he would run without even thinking about it. However, their enemies weren't that strong. Of course, Doctor Tula and Adolphe wouldn't be easy either. The doctor had incredible attack, and Adolphe had a lot of health. Adolphe was also just a champion and wouldn't drop an item if he died. He needed to be killed five times, but Adolphe wouldn't leave the castle after dying four times.
Junhyuk looked at the doctor and said, "We kill Doctor Tula first."
"Is that possible?"
"What's the range of the electric arrow?"
"About twenty-five meters."
"OK. Let's do it."
He swung the Frozen Rune Sword, and Doctor Tula dodged. Then, Junhyuk stepped back while using the Spatial Slash with the Blood Rune Sword.
"Ugh!"
The Spatial Slash took 40 percent of the doctor's health, and the shockwave swept through Adolphe. When they were both pushed back, Junhyuk grabbed Sarang's hand and started to run.
Sarang created and threw an electric arrow. It hit Doctor Tula. The arrow's damage had increased. On Killa, Sarang had only been able to deal 2 percent damage at a time, but she dealt 4 percent damage to the doctor.
Junhyuk realized he could kill the doctor. If he killed Doctor Tula, Adolphe could be ignored. Adolphe was dangerous, but he would have the force field to deal with.
Doctor Tula boosted his speed as Junhyuk ran away. His speed with the use of his eight legs was incredible. Junhyuk had movement speed buffs, but he couldn't get away from the doctor. The distance between them was about twenty-two meters.
He was out of Doctor Tula's attack range. His hairs stood up while trying to maintain the distance. At any moment, Doctor Tula could use the spider web on him. Junhyuk had the force field, but he wanted to save it for later.
Adolphe was chasing after them, but he was slower than the doctor and was lagging behind. Junhyuk felt better as the distance from Adolphe increased. Sarang could attack while running, so she hit the doctor again. Junhyuk wanted to get a bit farther away.
He wanted to use the Frozen Rune Sword to decrease the doctor's speed, but he also just wanted to keep running away, thinking he would be able to kill the doctor. However, there was another variable.
A three-headed wolf walked out of the forest, and it was as strong as the twin-headed ogre. Junhyuk couldn't stop. It would be the worst outcome if he did, so he dashed toward the three-headed wolf, and the wolf opened its maw wide.
The wolf spewed fireballs. That's why it was dangerous. Junhyuk ran as close as possible to the fireball and teleported. With that one teleport, he passed by the fireball, and it hit Doctor Tula and Adolphe.
If Adolphe had enough time, he could kill a twin-headed ogre on his own. He was better equipped than Junhyuk, but they were chasing after people at that moment. The fireball covered him, and Doctor Tula took to the trees, hopping from branch to branch.
The wolf looked at Doctor Tula, and Adolphe rushed toward it, slashing the wolf. The wolf got paralyzed, and Doctor Tula dropped on it, crushing the wolf.
Craaack!
One of the wolf's head crumbled, and Doctor Tula used the flamethrower. He wanted to kill Junhyuk, but he needed to deal with the wolf first. The flames roasted another of the wolf's head while Adolphe beheaded the last.
Junhyuk had gotten far away, and another electric arrow zoomed in.
Pzzzzt!
Doctor Tula raised one leg to block the arrow, but it still damaged him because of its attribute. It dealt 2 percent damage, and Doctor Tula started running madly. Adolphe ran after him.
Junhyuk had gained some distance, but looking at the electric arrow, he had only gained three meters, and Doctor Tula realized Junhyuk was trying to kill him, so it would be more complicated to come up with a chance.
Doctor Tula extended his hand toward Junhyuk. A small spider flew toward him, travelling faster than an arrow, and Junhyuk swung his sword instinctively.
Clang!
The spider bounced off, and Doctor Tula gained five meters. He launched the spider web, and Junhyuk teleported. It was his last teleport, but he had to use it at that point. The force field was a last resort.
He kept running with Sarang. Without her, he couldn't kill Doctor Tula. They were about twenty-five meters away, but they could lose the five meters at any moment.
He checked on the doctor's health. There was exactly half of it left, so Junhyuk made up his mind.
"Kill Doctor Tula."
"Is that possible?"
"I can use the Spatial Slash."
They had run for thirty seconds, so now was their chance. He could take care of the other 10 percent, but if he used the force field, the doctor would run away. He had to get close to Doctor Tula, so he measured the distance between them.
"I'll go at it alone."
"Will you be OK?"
"I will. Use Heal on me."
Sarang nodded, and Junhyuk used Spatial Slash without thinking too much.
"Argh!"
The doctor learned again how dangerous the Spatial Slash was, and Junhyuk could use it just by looking at his target. It didn't take any significant motion.
Doctor Tula lost 40 percent of his health, leaving him with 10 percent, and Junhyuk jumped. As he did, Doctor Tula fired the small missile.
Boom!
Junhyuk blocked it with his sword, but was still pushed back by the shock. It was only a single missile, but it was effective. He lost 45 percent of his health, putting him closer to death.
The small missile dealt physical and fire damage at the same time. It was unlike Killa's sniping. Junhyuk's defense was higher than his magic defense, so it decreased Killa's sniping damage.
He hit the ground and light green powder fell over him, regenerating 45 percent of his health. It was Sarang's healing power, and Junhyuk walked toward the doctor. He only had 10 percent of his health, and Junhyuk felt he could kill him.
As he got closer, Adolphe dashed toward him swinging the saw-blade sword. Junhyuk crouched and slashed with the Frozen Rune Sword, cutting Adolphe's ribs. Adolphe swung again, but Junhyuk disengaged and swung his sword at Doctor Tula. The doctor used two of his legs to block.
Junhyuk had learned something from the fight. Heroes could easily handle Junhyuk's swordsmanship at close range. His swords wouldn't work against the doctor, and he would die if he remained in that place.
An electric arrow hit Doctor Tula again, and he lost 4 percent of his health, leaving him with 6 percent. Junhyuk had to dodge Adolphe again, but that's when Doctor Tula fired the flamethrower.
Then, an electric blast hit him, and Doctor Tula was paralyzed and started disappearing. Sarang had improved her electric blast, so she dealt the last hit on the last 6 percent of the doctor's health.
Junhyuk watched him disappear and turned to face Adolphe.
Adolphe had lost 40 percent from the shockwave and another 7 percent from Junhyuk's and Sarang's most recent attack. He had 53 percent remaining, and it was imperative to down his health quickly.
Junhyuk swung fast. Within two seconds, he had slashed Adolphe three times, taking 46 percent of his health. Adolphe was left with 7 percent of his health, but he started moving again. So, he swung the saw-blade sword, pushing Junhyuk away.
Adolphe sank his sword in the ground, and two blue beams of energy wrapped around Junhyuk and Sarang. He stepped back, igniting the ten-meter-long blue sword energy, and Junhyuk smiled at him.
"You lost."
Junhyuk launched the force field. The ivory light surrounded him and Sarang, and Junhyuk dashed forward and stabbed Adolphe in the chest.
Adolphe knew no attacks would work against him now, but he could still block. However, while he was fighting Junhyuk, another electric arrow hit him. It took 5 percent of his health and left him paralyzed, and Junhyuk swung his swords.
Adolphe's mouth hung open, and he disappeared. Junhyuk was extremely relieved. He had barely survived.
