It didn’t take long for them to destroy the 2nd tower. The enemy minions were riflemen, so the allied minions kept their shields up while rushing in, and Junhyuk took the lead, dealing with the enemy minions. It was over quickly.
The riflemen’s attacks couldn’t penetrate Bebe’s Black Armor, so it was easy for him to deal with them. By the time they had finished killing the minions and destroying the watchtower, reinforcements hadn’t arrived yet.
The enemy heroes would reincarnate, and they would surely return to fight again, so the allies moved fast. They were going to the Dragon’s Valley. Once they arrived at the valley’s entrance, they met with the others.

Did you buy anything?
Halo asked Artlan.
Artlan frowned a little and tapped his sabers.

I tried to upgrade these, but it failed. Their stats lowered.

After Artlan said that, everyone’s expressions froze, but Junhyuk was curious about what had happened.

Didn’t you upgrade it to level nine?


Correct,
Artlan answered calmly,
The first upgrade failed, and they got bumped down to level eight. So, I tried upgrading them two more times, and now they are at level ten.

When he finished speaking, everyone felt overjoyed. Artlan replied their cheers by pulling out his sabers. They were covered in a soft light and looked different from before.
Junhyuk inspected the sabers while Artlan continued calmly,
The difference between the 9th and 10th upgrades will be felt by our enemies.

Artlan was full of confidence, and Junhyuk felt relieved. Halo turned around and looked back.

You didn’t bring many minions.

There were 150 minions total, and they would be needed when destroying the towers. Minions couldn’t draw the dragon’s attention.
Artlan looked back and said,
Then, let’s go.


The enemy won’t know?
Junhyuk asked him.

About what?


That we are attacking the dragon.


They could guess.


Previously, when we fought the dragon, we lost a lot of health. Couldn’t it be dangerous?

The new enemies had enough power to match up with them, unlike their previous foes. The allies could get killed without being able to do anything.

Maybe we should let them take the dragon?


If we do that, they will get the buff. Do you think we could kill them then?

Everyone was paying serious attention to Junhyuk, and Junhyuk said confidently,
We could hide and, when the dragon is about to die, we could steal the kill.


Is that even possible?


It would take time for the enemy to kill the dragon. We would wait and steal it.


But there is no place where we can hide.

Junhyuk pointed upward and asked,
What about up there?

He had run away with Sarang before. If they took that road, it would take them over an hour to get up there.

It takes too much time.

Junhyuk looked at the minions.

We don’t have to take minions. We could hide them and just jump up the cliff.


Jump?

Junhyuk smiled.

With my jump skill and by teleporting.

Last time, he had gotten stuck on the tip of the cliff, but with two teleports, he could get up there. Artlan was interested in the idea and looked at the others.

What do you all think?


It’s a good idea. Even if we can’t steal the dragon kill, the enemies will lose a lot of health, and we can attack them then,
Diane agreed, and the other heroes nodded.

Is there a place to hide them?
Artlan asked, looking at the minions.

There is the reed field. We could hide them there and we don’t have a lot of them.

Nudra led the minions to the reed field, and Junhyuk looked up. There was a path to get up there, but it would take a long time.
The allies decided to take advantage of their enemies’ weaknesses. They would go up the cliff and wait by where the dragon was.
Nudra returned and said,
I hid them well.

Artlan looked at Junhyuk.

Then, can you take us all up there by yourself?


I can.

Diane lifted her hand up.

Give me a piggyback ride.

Artlan looked up for a moment and asked,
Are we going up this way?


Yes.


Let’s do it.

Artlan jumped, stepped on the cliffside and stabbed it with his saber. He looked up and repeated the jumping and stabbing until he was already at the top.

We can do it.

Nudra thought for a moment and kicked off the wall. He had an easier time getting up than Artlan did. After hitting the wall twice, he was up. Junhyuk was astounded.

He got up there without using his power!


It’s not impossible,
even though Halo said that, he stood next to Junhyuk. Junhyuk stared at him blankly, and Halo said,
I won’t get up there using juvenile methods.

Halo got closer to him, and Diane ran up to Junhyuk and got on his back.

This is my place,
she said.

Hold my hand.

Halo grabbed his right hand, and Vera stayed to his left.

Hug me tightly,
she said.
Junhyuk hugged Vera by the waist, and Sarang stared at her with her eyes slightly wider and hung by Junhyuk’s neck.

I’m sorry I got between your women,
Halo said.
Junhyuk smiled.

Let’s go up.

After speaking, he jumped a hundred feet in the air. At the peak of the jump, he teleported, but he was not at the top yet. So, he teleported again, and they all arrived at the top safely.
Junhyuk looked around. There was a road leading to the center of the Dragon’s Valley, and that meant that people could used that road..
He looked up at the sky. This was his second time on the battlefield since the dragon first appeared. Since there is a road, does this mean that the people who designed the Dimensional Battlefield also thought about a situation like this?
Artlan moved first and said,
Let’s go.

The five heroes, Junhyuk and Sarang went to the spot Junhyuk and Sarang used to escape the last time. Junhyuk could see a gigantic dragon and shivered. It was hard for him to believe that he had fought a dragon before.
Artlan looked at the dragon and said,
After fighting us, the enemy knows that they need the dragon’s buff to win.

The last team battle had gone to the allies. The enemies had botched their regrouping times, and the allies had killed them all and become stronger. Artlan had successfully upgraded his sabers, and the allies now possessed a healing power. They wouldn’t lose. The most important priority was staying alive.
This time, they would steal the dragon kill and, when the enemies lost their healths, they would attack and secure a victory.

We can’t just jump down from here. We’ll need to teleport,
Artlan said.
Junhyuk nodded.

Just hold on to me, and we’ll get down.

Artlan looked at the dragon.

I’ll tell you when.


OK.

Junhyuk lay on the ground, and Sarang lay next to him. They were hiding from the enemy. The heroes crouched, doing the same.
They waited. The enemies could ignore the dragon and start attacking the tower. Then, the allies would lose.
They waited for an hour.
Suddenly, the enemies showed up at the entrance of the Dragon’s Valley. They had a hundred riflemen with them and they started planning for battle.
They had probably dealt with the dragon before, and Junhyuk wanted to see how they would do it.
They entered the valley and sent the riflemen head until they got within range. Their attacks might just scratch the dragon, but they had enough distance between them and the dragon to keep them safe.
Jean Clo stepped toward the dragon. He usually had to grab someone to attack, so he couldn’t do much against a dragon, but a hero was a hero. He punched the dragon, drawing its attention to him. The dragon swung its tail in response, and Jean Clo grabbed it. Jean Clo was such a strong tank that he tried to manipulate the tail, but he couldn’t. The dragon lifted its tail, and Jean Clo went up with it with a smile on his face.
The other heroes started attacking. Doctor Tula shot off missiles, and Killa shot her rifle. Regina and Bater kept waiting.
The dragon slammed its tail down, but Jean Clo jumped as he was about to hit the ground. The dragon’s attention turned to Doctor Tula and Killa. Then, Bater rushed in with a punch.
Boom!
The dragon was hit and stopped. Bater delivered a one-two combo, and the dragon fixated on him. Killa continued shooting her rifle, and when the dragon came within range, Regina started to shoot it with her pistol.
It looks like they were attacking the dragon in order, but soon, things changed. The dragon spewed fire, and the flames burned everything in their path.
Junhyuk was curious about how the enemy would stop the dragon’s breath. The allies had a force field, but they didn’t.
Jean Clo jumped and blocked the dragon’s path. The flames burned everything, but he blocked it with his body, leaving the allies speechless, and the other heroes attacked the dragon. Their attacks were explosive.

They might kill it!

The enemy was sacrificing Jean Clo to kill the dragon. Jean Clo used his ultimate, and three energy rings appeared around his body, healing him quickly. However, the dragon’s flames inflicted continuous damage, and soon, Jean Clo no longer had the energy around him and started burning very hard.
Bater extended both arms, and his fists flew to hit the dragon.
Boom!
Clearly, that was a dangerous attack. Even the dragon was pushed back.

When do we go in?
Junhyuk asked Artlan.

Not yet.

Artlan looked at the field. The dragon still had some health left. Then, the fire breath stopped, and the dragon lost more health.
A dragon was still a dragon, and the allies had only killed a dragon due to the power of the force field.
The dragon swept the ground with its tail, and the heroes jumped around like grasshoppers. The dragon rushed toward them, and Killa jumped, but the dragon still headbutted her. Killa was thrown away and fell to the ground. Doctor Tula used his flamethrower. Regina shot at it with her pistol, and Adolphe stepped in. He slashed his mechanical sword from above to hit the dragon, and it was looking hurt. It could die soon.
Artlan grabbed Junhyuk’s shoulder and said,
Let’s move.

Junhyuk grabbed Sarang and jumped down. The other heroes also jumped down from the cliff.
