Chapter 399: Abel, the Gambler 1

Junhyuk had not expected Elise to show up with them, and Elise must’ve realized that and smiled.

“I didn’t expect this.”

Sarang walked over to Elise and said, “Big sister, I’m glad we’re on the same team!”

Elise smiled and her, and Gongon, who was still being carried by Sarang, said, “That’s the genius woman.”

A dragon had called her a genius, which proved that Elise was outstanding. Junhyuk was glad to hear that and to know that she was with them, and he said, “OK. Let’s decide on where each of us will go.”

He turned to the group. With the exception of Abel, he knew everyone would do their part. So, looking at the hero, he asked, “How is you attack?”

Abel scratched his cheek with a card and answered, “I throw cards from long range, but not that long. I can attack from twenty-five meters away.”

Junhyuk was relieved to hear that. It was a significant distance. Even if the enemies had longer-ranged attacks, he could always get a little closer to be able to attack.

Abel wouldn’t be the one to attack first, but he could still support from far away. His range was good enough.

Looking a the group, Junhyuk said, “Then, Abell will take the right path.”

If Abel went right, who would he support? Sarang would be right for the task, but would the two alone work? While Junhyuk thought about it, Layla said, “The center is important, so I’ll take center with Sarang. Gongon, you go left. And you, you’ll go right with Abel.”

“Me?”

Layla nodded and replied, “I’ve only heard about Sarang, so I want to find out how good she actually is: her powers and her sense of battle. I want to fight with her.”

Junhyuk understood that, and he also knew about Layla. Even if three enemy heroes showed up, the two of them together should be OK.

He looked at Gongon and said, “OK, Gongon. You take left.”

“Fine.”

Junhyuk stared at Abel with some reservations. He did not know Abel’s powers, and he felt that Abel looked like a loser. For now, he couldn’t really trust the hero.

“Let’s go to the right.”

“OK.”

Junhyuk turned to the group and said, “Let’s head out then. Each group takes a hundred minions.”

To kill the enemies, a hundred minions would be enough if their enemies were weak. Everyone agreed with him and headed out.

Junhyuk went with Abel, but he also took Elise with him. If the enemies didn’t have an assassin, he would be able to protect her best of all. As he moved, followed by the hundred minions, he asked Abel, “Abel, what are your powers?”

Abel showed him his cards and said, “I can create an illusion to take the enemies attention with my cards. Like this...”

Abel pulled a card out, and one Abel turned into two. Junhyuk was impressed. He could sense it was a illusion with his spatial sense, but his naked eyes couldn’t tell the difference. That’s when Junhyuk realized just how strong his spatial sense was. By using it, he wouldn’t be fooled by an illusion.

Abel shuffled his cards, and without looking at them, he pulled one out and threw it.

“This is another one of my powers, but it’s hit-or-miss. It’s unpredictable and it triggers a random effect.”

“What do you mean by random effect?”

“It triggers one of five random effects. There is a card that ensnares an enemy, a card that pushes an enemy back, a card that confuses an enemy, and a card that deals 300 percent of my attack damage to an enemy.”

Abel seemed useful. Any of those cards’ effects could shut down an enemy.

“However, if I’m unlucky, the last card buffs an enemy’s attack by 50 percent.”

“You have a 20 percent chance to buff an enemy?”

Was that even possible? Junhyuk stared at Abel, and Abel replied, “I told you that it’s unpredictable.”

It meant that his power would work well 80 percent of the time, but it would buff an enemy the other 20 percent.

Junhyuk had never heard of powers like that.

Abel shuffled his cards again and said, “My other power makes an enemy curious. If I pull a card upside-down, the enemy will want to know what it is and come toward me.”

“Like a taunt?”

“Something like that. However, the enemy that moves toward me will get a 50-percent, extra-damage buff.

“Can you do it to more than one enemy?”

“I’m not a tank, so I don’t need a power like that. The enemy will move toward me for three seconds, and I attack from long range. I can’t do it to more than one at a time,” Abel answered, and Junhyuk laughed loudly.

Long range attackers didn’t need taunts.

Abel shuffled his cards again and said, “My ultimate is also hit-or-miss.”

“Your ultimate is also unpredictable?”

Junhyuk stared at Abel, and Abel smiled while he showed Junhyuk four cards.

“Aside from me, these four cards represent the allied heroes. When I pull one out, I move to that hero’s location.”

“From anywhere?”

Abel nodded and replied, “Right, anywhere on the battlefield.”

Was that a good ultimate? If the allies were in danger, it could help, but Abel couldn’t choose the hero he’d move to.

Junhyuk shook his head and said, “It’s not bad. You can help out your allies.”

“When I’m alone, I don’t usually use my ultimate.”

Why would he use it when he was alone? That would be crazy.

“I understand your powers now. What about the cooldown?”

“Ten minutes.”

Junhyuk decided he wanted to fight alongside Abel first and then send him off somewhere else. He would send Abel to help out the others. However, he didn’t know how much help the hero would be.

Junhyuk had never taken the right side since Nightmare Mountain had become the new battleground. He had gone left, but never right.

The right side was heavily forested, and it was a good place to ambush enemies.

Junhyuk looked at Elise, who seemed a little tense. Abel hadn’t paid any attention to Elise. What about Zaira?

With her summon, Elise could do more than a hero by herself.

“What are you thinking?” he asked her, and Elise smiled.

“I’m measuring the mana around here.”

What was she using to do that? Junhyuk was curious, and Elise tapped her glasses.

“I made these special glasses for the Dimensional Battlefield.”

Junhyuk was astonished. He was wearing Doctor Tula’s glasses, but Elise had made herself a pair of special glasses.

She looked around and said, “This place has so much mana. I feel lighter.”

Junhyuk knew how filled with mana the Dimensional Battlefield was. He didn’t even have to will his living spirit to gather it. The mana inside him replenished on its own.

Elise was muttering observations to herself, and he told her, “Just know one thing...”

“What is it?”

“... When the battle begins, don’t join the fray. Don’t do anything unless I tell you to.”

“You just want me to watch?”

“If I need you, I’ll let you know.”

Elise agreed and nodded. Once they reached the watchtower, they spotted their enemies. They had also brought a hundred minions with them, and the minions looked like insects. They moved on six legs.

The human minions had a hard time understanding the enemy minions. They did not know how to fight them.

They also spotted the enemy heroes. One looked like a praying mantis, and the other looked like a porcupine. They weren’t big, but they looked capable of long range attacks.

As he inspected the two heroes, Junhyuk said, “I’ll deal the first strike, Abel.”

“With your Spatial Slash?”

Junhyuk stared at Abel, who smiled.

“It was a hot gambling round. When you entered the Champions’ Battlefield, I placed a bet on your enemies and lost everything. From then on, I bet on you and made a lot of money.” Looking at him, Abel asked, “What’s your plan?”

“I’ll get their vanguard with my Spatial Slash first.”

“With a single hit?”

Junhyuk shrugged.

“It doesn’t matter. We just have to make contact first. When their vanguard retreats, the mantis will move forward. Whether the fight lasts long or not doesn’t matter if I deal the first strike.”

Junhyuk looked at the porcupine hero and said, “At least, the porcupine will be too scared to do anything.”

“Right, the porcupine won’t want to get hit by your Spatial Slash twice.”

Abel shuffled his cards and said, “Shall we begin?”

Junhyuk nodded and stepped forward, and the mantis did the same with the minions.

As they closed in, Junhyuk measured the distances. The mantis was about fifteen meters ahead of the porcupine. Did the mantis know about his shockwaves?

It didn’t matter. Junhyuk shouted at the allied minions, “Attack!”

He ran with them, closing in against his enemies.
