They moved very fast without the minions. If they took the minions, the monsters in the forest would have delayed their advance. However, they were three heroes and two experts, so they weren't in any danger.
While they were running in the forest, Sarang said to Junhyuk, "Big brother, there is an expert other than the two of us."
"What are you talking about?"
"The voice said that I'm the third expert?"
Junhyuk stopped running and looked at Sarang. Vera joined them and said, "That's right. Someone from a different battlefield became an expert. It's rare to see two experts on one battlefield, and your news travelled fast."
So far, he had only met novices, but now there was another expert. It was something to be cautious about. Even a novice was dangerous depending on his or her power. An expert was even more dangerous.
"Do you know what kind of powers he has?"
"I heard only a part of the story, so I am not sure, but it sounds like the expert has two offensive powers."
"Sure," Junhyuk was envious since he didn't have any offensive powers. "He sounds dangerous."
"To you? Why?"
"Because he has offensive powers?"
"No, you are superior to him," Vera said and shrugged. "Surely, an expert with offensive powers is strong, but your force field blocks all attacks, and you could just slash through him."
"Right."
He didn't have offensive powers, but his regular attack stat was high, and he had defensive powers. He could simply block any incoming attacks.
"Could you find out more about him for next time? I might end up meeting him."
"You mean the expert with the offensive powers?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I met some novices in South Korea, and they almost killed me," Junhyuk said calmly.
Vera's stare turned cold.
"Someone came after you?"
"Yes."
Artlan turned back and asked, "What did you do?"
"A hypnotist?" Halo joined the conversation. "I heard about it. She's from a battlefield prior to ours. She made a huge mess of things."
"A mess?"
"Her allied heroes were all killed, and she controlled the enemies and got a triple-kill by herself."
"What?"
She killed three heroes by herself?
"The enemy heroes that lost were at low health, and she used one to kill the other two."
"Why did the third hero join the fight?" Sarang asked, and Vera laughed at her.
"They had just arrived at the Dimensional Battlefield. They didn't trust each other and they didn't know they were hypnotized, so they killed each other. It was breaking news."
"She had nice equipment… So, that's how she got it."
"Why didn't you kill her?" Artlan asked.
Junhyuk scratched his head.
"I didn't want to commit murder."
Artlan stopped and grabbed him by the shoulder.
"Keep this in mind: you are important to us. If you get hurt in South Korea, I won't leave it alone."
"I understand."
He hadn't seen Artlan's killer intent in a long time. Vera tapped Sarang's shoulder.
"That's right. If anything happens to you, I will go to your dimension and beat the crap out of you."
That statement surprised Junhyuk, and he looked at Vera.
"You can go to my dimension?"
"Yes. It's bothersome, but I can."
Junhyuk was dumbfounded. If heroes went to his dimension, things would end in complete disaster.
"I'll stay alive."
"Do it! if your own kind kills you, we will pay a visit to your dimension."
He had to stay alive to save the Earth.
"We are going to kill the salamander."
"The salamander?"
Salamanders were a type of buff monster that lived in the enemy territory.
"That's right. The enemies will try to kill the salamander first. We will kill it instead and attack them from behind."
"We should hurry."
They had to hurry to get to the salamander first. If the enemies got there before them, they might try to attack the allies on the road. However, if the enemies decided to gather, things would be more difficult. The allied side had given up a tower to get the salamander.
"Let's pick up the pace."
The heroes sped up, and Junhyuk felt like dying. Sarang had a movement speed stat increase, but Junhyuk didn't. He ran as fast as he could.
They arrived at the salamander's den and saw that the salamander was still alive. It was fourteen meters long and spewed fire. Doctor Tula, Regina and Adolphe were fighting against it. They had hunted the salamander for their team the last time as well.
Artlan looked at the fight and said, "The salamander isn't doing well."
However, it didn't matter. The allies had the superior fighting power.
"We should start by getting one of them out first."
It would help them big time if they could get rid of an enemy hero. Vera prepared to cast Meteor Shower, while Artlan also readied his ultimate.
He crouched and said, "Our target is Doctor Tula. Junhyuk, teleport me over there."
"OK."
Meanwhile, Doctor Tula tied up the salamander with his spider web and fired his missiles at it. Adolphe's sword gave off some energy, and it sliced through the salamander. Finally, Regina's barrage of shots hit the salamander, and it died.
They were then surrounded by red circles when Vera's meteors fell on them. The meteors fell from the sky and caught the heroes by surprise. They were all close to each other, and Vera's meteors hit them hard. Vera's earring gave her spectacular power.
The enemy heroes looked around and quickly dispersed. They had to break to escape from Vera's meteors. Doctor Tula dashed to one side, and Junhyuk and Artlan teleported in his direction.
Doctor Tula fired the flamethrower, and Artlan swung his saber.
Slash!
Artlan's saber traveled through the air, past Doctor Tula's skin, and he started bleeding and staggered.
"Cowards!"
Doctor Tula didn't have a lot of health. He had been hit by Artlan's and Vera's ultimates. Both had time to prepare their attacks and inflicted critical damage. The doctor staggered, and Artlan attacked him with seven continuous saber strikes. They all hit him.
The doctor started disappearing, and Artlan turned around. Junhyuk moved behind him, and Regina dashed toward them, aiming her pistol.
Her continuous shoots covered a decent range. Junhyuk had increased health, but it was not a good idea to be shot by her. He moved, and at the same time, Artlan blocked for him. Artlan was hit by the bullets, and a light green powder started falling on his head.
He was wounded and getting healed at the same time. Junhyuk was impressed with Sarang's timing. Artlan was soon healed and launched his saber at Regina. He threw his saber from close range, and she had a hard time escaping. Regina raised her cutlass to block, but Halo attacked her back with his lightning flash attack.
A long gash appeared on Regina's back, and Adolphe made his move. Adolphe stuck his saw-bladed sword in the ground and released the energy boomerangs that constricted Artlan and Halo's movements.
Regina escaped the boomerang by using her increased speed. She was headed toward Vera. It was easy for Regina to deal with Vera because even though Vera had high attack, she had low health. Regina could kill her in a short time.
Adolphe took his saw-bladed sword out of the ground and rushed while Regina ran toward Vera. Junhyuk quickly cast a force field around Vera. Both Vera are Sarang were inside the force field, and Adolphe attacked it relentlessly.
Clung!
Adolphe's attacks bounced off the force field, and Junhyuk sighed. Adolphe had rushed and tried to attack them while Regina had wanted to get rid of Vera. He had barely averted disaster.
Regina frowned and looked for Junhyuk, but he had already jumped. Artlan closed in quickly, and Regina turned around and shot at him. Artlan fell over, but the force field was safe. Vera cast a fire spear at Regina.
Boom!
Regina was pushed back, and as she moved backward, she hit a fire orb, causing a series of explosions. Vera's attacks made Regina stagger.
Vera had already cast meteor, and the enemies had low health. Regina couldn't touch Vera, so she decided to escape. She had an extremely high movement speed, and by using her speed, she tried to get out of Vera's range, but Vera wouldn't let her go so easily.
Halo went after Regina, and Artlan launched his saber. She blocked Artlan's saber and lost a few seconds, and Halo arrived swinging his sword.
Clung!
Regina was a balanced hero. Her health was high and her attack stat was also high, but heroes lacking unique powers were awkward, and Regina was one such awkward hero. When she was with the other heroes, the others could complement her lack of unique powers. However, she was alone now.
She could still kill Vera, but Halo and Artlan had joined in and she couldn't deal with all three. In a one-on-one situation, things would be different because of Regina's ultimate. Junhyuk was watching the situation when Regina lifted her eye patch and cast her ultimate. Then, he started to run. Halo was close to her and turned to stone. Regina shot at him continuously.
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Halo's chest was covered in blood, and Adolphe swung his sword at him. A long, blue streak of energy dropped on Halo. Regina lacked enough strength, but it was different with Adolphe's help.
Halo's chest opened and blood started pouring out, and Regina tried to stab him with her cutlass. However, the allied heroes counterattacked. A fire spear hit her back, and Artlan appeared in front of her.
Slash!
Artlan wasn't too late to save Halo, but Adolphe went around him and swung his sword at Halo. He knew Halo was seriously wounded and he wanted to kill him before he started moving again.
Heroes could die from critical hits, especially when they were seriously wounded. However, Adolphe was left frowning. His sword didn't hit anything.
"Shit!"
Halo was thirty feet from him. Junhyuk was standing behind him, looking at Adolphe.
