The ice golem had fallen, and Abel was already dead. With Gongon and Layla’s combined attack, Abel had died without doing anything. However, the enemy heroes weren’t just sitting there.

Sauro released a fire right that held Gongon in place. After that, the enemy heroes focused on him. They wanted to kill Gongon rather than Layla.

Gyulsean joined the attack, and Gongon lost a bunch of health at once. At that moment, Sarang healed the dragon, and after Gongon regained his health, Junhyuk raised the force field around him.

Two powerful enemies were dead, and with the force field up, Junhyuk thought they could finish the job.

He had already used two of his powers, but he wanted to help. Layla entered the force field as well.

The enemy heroes know about the force field now, so they attacked Junhyuk.

He took off quickly and expanded the size of the force field, diving inside it. The attacks bounced off the force field, and Sarang and Elise entered it as well.

Sarang fight her electric blasts and paralyzed Sauro and Kalgashu. Zaira attacked them both, and Gongon transformed into a dragon.

“You tried to kill me?!”

Gongon opened his mouth, and fireb.a.l.l.s launched toward his enemies. A fireball exploded against Sauro’s body, and thunderbolts fell on his head.

It was a strong power, and Sauro died just like that. Gyulsean and Kalgashu decided to flee. Victory belonged to the allies, and they all chased after the two heroes.

Gongon flew across the sky and block the path the two heroes were trying to take. Zaira did the same. The rest of the allies closed in quickly from behind.

Kalgashu and Gyulsean used their powers on Gongon, but Elise joined them suddenly, cancelling their powers. Junhyuk’s force field was gone, but her nullification field was active now.

The enemy heroes couldn’t use their powers for now. Junhyuk slashed at Gyulsean, who blocked the attack with her bow. However, Gyulsean wasn’t used to fighting at close range, so she was getting injured with every exchange.

Layla joined the fight, and Gyulsean died. Layla killed her. Sarang and Elise attacked Kalgashu, and the hero died as well.

The enemy watchtower attacked Gongon, and Junhyuk shouted at him to retreated, ordering the minions attack the watchtower.

He watched as the watchtower was destroyed.

“Did we just win?”

The allies had to have killed over seven hundred minions already. They kept pushing, but by now the enemy heroes only had about three hundred minions at their disposal. Junhyuk was still worried about the ice golem and Abel, but not that much.

It was time for the allies to push to finish the fight.

“We won’t have the dragon’s buff, but we have some slack, so let’s keep going.”

Everyone nodded, and they went down the path. They hadn’t acquired any synthesis materials in that battlefield, but with a victory, they would win 1,000,000G each.

Junhyuk inspected the item the ice golem had dropped and said, “This should go for about 150,000G.”

The attackers focused on weapons, so the rest of their items were cheap, but the ice golem was a tank, and it had focused on defense as well. The defensive item was rather expensive.

It was definitely better to kill the ice golem than two of the weaker heroes.

They followed the middle path and saw the castle far away. About a hundred minions were stationed in front of the castle.

“Sauro’s range is significant, so be careful. The minions should close in. Meanwhile, we’ll teleport, and I’ll raise the force field.”

“A ten-second push?”

“That should be enough. We have more minions, so we should finish it fast.”

The allied minions outnumbered the enemy minions five to one, so destroying the gate should be an easy task. Nevertheless, the allied minions could die to the enemy heroes.

On the wall, Sauro, Gyulsean and Kalgashu were waiting.

Gongon smirked and looked at the minions, saying, “Let’s clean up and go home!”

As Gongon shouted, the minions attacked. They held their shields up high as they clashed against the enemy minions.

The allied team consisted of five heroes and a champion, so their minds were made up.

“Just like Gongon said, let’s clean up and go home.”

Junhyuk ran forward, and the allies followed him. Sauro attacked him from seventy meters away, so Junhyuk teleported with the allies. They appeared right in front of the gate.

The enemy heroes focused their attacks on him and his allies, but Junhyuk quickly raised his force field. The attacks bounced off, and with the help of the minions, he destroyed the gate.

Junhyuk entered the castle with the allies, and as expected, the enemy heroes headed off to join the giant golems. Inside the castle, Junhyuk felt a cold air through the room. His force field was gone, and there was no way for them to dodge the ice breath.

Everyone was frozen, and with a smile, the ice golem attacked.

Boom!

The ice golem rushed and pounded the ground, creating shockwaves that launched the allied heroes into the air. They were all still frozen. Abel threw a card that slammed against Elise.

Gyulsean, Sauro and Kalgashu all focused on her. Still frozen, Elise died. She did not have enough defense to withstand the onslaught.

Even after Elise died, the enemy heroes kept attacking. The ice golem enlarged its fists and punched Sarang. With that single ultimate use, the ice golem was trying to kill two allied heroes.

Junhyuk scowled. The active time of the freeze was short, but the enemy heroes were focusing their attacks and attacking nonstop. The allies had destroyed the gate, and because of that, they had let their guard down. The enemy heroes had seized on that.

The allies were being beaten.

Gyulsean activated her ultimate, and a stamped of translucent hors.e.m.e.n ran over the allies. Junhyuk bit his lip. The enemies were burning all of their powers on Sarang, and that was actually good.

Sarang’s invincibility activated at the same time as they all unfroze. Since the enemy heroes were gathered in one spot, Junhyuk immediately triggered a Spatial Collapse. All of them were pulled toward the void.

“Counterattack!”

Gongon used his firebreath, and Sarang cast Thunderstorm. Helen summoned her light sword and attacked, and Junhyuk used his Spatial Slash.

The ice golem fell, and Abel died. Junhyuk teleported behind Sauro and stabbed the hero. Sauro survived the attack, but Gongon headb.u.t.ted him, killing the dinosaur.

Layla rushed at Kalgashu, launching him into the air. The explosion of attacks killed most of the enemies. Only Gyulsean remained.

She tried to run away, but Junhyuk teleported and caught up to her.

He didn’t do it alone. He had the rest of the tam with him, and they all attacked Gyulsean, who died without a fight.

Junhyuk looked back. The enemy heroes were all dead, and only the enemy minions remained. Looking at the two hundred minions, he said, “We’ll fight the golems. Order the minions to attack as well. Let’s finish this.”

There were four hundred allied minions left, which was plenty to put an end to the battle.

Gongon ordered the attack. The heroes led the advance, and with the four heroes in tow, they all attacked the golems.

Junhyuk Gongon and Layla attacked the golems, but the minions were the ones who killed them. None of the enemies had revived yet.

Junhyuk cut down the enemy minions, like a deathbringer with Aksha’s Longsword. The minions were worth a significant amount of gold now, so he wanted to kill them all.

He and the allies pounded against the castle’s force field. The ice golem reappeared inside the force field.

If the enemy heroes had fought with the giant golems, they would’ve had the advantage. But, their surprise attack was also effective.

The mistake was targeting Sarang second. If they hadn’t done that, they would’ve lasted longer. Sarang’s invincibility maintained her alive through the enemies’ attacks.

They hadn’t known about her ultimate, and that was their downfall.

Junhyuk smiled at the ice golem and said, “We win.”

The ice golem opened its mouth, and white mist wafted out of it.

“Too bad. Let’s fight again next time.”

The ice golem was being cool about the loss, so Junhyuk nodded. However, they were in a tournament, so there wouldn’t be a next time.

“Right, see you later.”

Finally, the castle’s force field shattered. Junhyuk watched it happen and smiled.

The ice golem was a decent tank, but the allies had won all the same. Abel had a great attack stat, but his defense was shoddy, so Junhyuk killed him easily at most engagements.

Now, Junhyuk knew how important being balanced was.

The world disappeared around him.
