Legend of Legends

“The monster special forces should collect the cadavers and other leftovers from the monster area,” Junhyuk told Brigadier Johnson, another American, who was in charge of all the special forces teams.

He turned to Major Jiro, who had been instructed by higher command to do as he said, and Jiro nodded.

Right now, considering the number of monsters, Johnson’s special forces would be annihilated.

“Sure.”

Junhyuk looked at the novices and experts. He had selected them carefully, but only a few of them weren’t scared of that place. The experts were more relaxed, but they were also nervous, while the novices were mostly scared.

Peyton had stopped talking, simply staring at Junhyuk. They could see about thirty monsters gathered now.

“A little nervousness isn’t bad, but if you are too scared, you might not be able to use your power, endangering the rest of your team. You must use powers whenever necessary, so keep that in mind.”

Some of the novices nodded, still terrified. Junhyuk was talking to them calmly.

“If you can’t do your job, it won’t be possible to shut down the tears.”

Everyone nodded with determination, but their scared looks didn’t change.

Looking at them, Junhyuk said, “Some of you may not have gone to the Dimensional Battlefield yet.”

A few nodded.

“The team without battlefield experience will stay in the center. The experts will take the vanguard, and the other novices will cover the right and left flanks. When a team gets used to the monsters, we’ll rotate. If you get tired, head to the center.”

Everyone nodded, and Junhyuk called out each team and assigned their positions. Nine teams made up the body, and ahead of them, stood the expert team.

They still looked terrified, and Junhyuk stared at the monsters.

“The monsters are crowded together. We won’t be able to get in like that, so I’ll clear a path.”

Junhyuk pulled out two swords made out of the Wolf Warlord’s claws. He wanted to know how effective they were, so he brought two of them with him. His own swords hadn’t been able to shatter the claw, so he trusted them.

Junhyuk stepped forward and everyone stared at him with deeply focused interest. He had closed the first dimensional tear, but they had only seen it on video. They were watching him in person now, and their hearts were pounding.

Junhyuk’s eyes beamed as he ran. He was looking at an enclosed space, not caring at all about the monsters. He could massacre C-ranked monsters with ease.

When he crossed into the enclosed space, the border, he felt like he was crossing into someone else’s land. Still running, he felt afraid once again.

The wolves soon rushed toward him, and Junhyuk summoned all of his equipment. The others couldn’t see it because of the ring, but he could see everything.

He swung the swords at the wolves.

Junhyuk couldn’t absorb health from or freeze his enemies, but he discovered new effects.

Slash!

A giant circular shockwave triggered, and the wolves were destroyed. Then, Junhyuk stepped forward and slashed a dying wolf. He had dealt with fifty wolves, and it had only taken him three breaths. In total, he only took three steps and swung three times.

All of a sudden, dozens of wolves had been killed. The mouths of the members of the Japanese Self-Defense Force were agape. They had all been equipped with monster decomposition liquid and fought the monsters when the tear had first appeared.

Some had been critically injured, so the current situation was hard to grasp.

Junhyuk looked at the claw swords. He thought they were useful and felt that they would be something that Bebe could sell.

While thinking of selling Bebe some things, he looked back. They were all staring blankly at him, but they walked inside. The novices and experts were no longer scared, and Junhyuk simply looked them.

“The expert’s team can hunt, but the other teams must also train. So, the expert’s team should let a certain amount of monsters through.”

Peyton smirked and said, “You can count on me for that operation.” Peyton could create rock walls that blocked even heroes. He could also trap monsters in the ground. So, he could definitely control the flow of monsters to the novice teams.

The group moved forward a little, and Junhyuk stayed back.

When the monster areas first appeared, the monsters had lured people inside and surrounded them, killing them all. Just in case, it would be best for him to cover their rear.

“Advance,” he ordered calmly.

They had already gathered the bodies of the wolves, and Junhyuk waited for the special forces teams to collect them all before following the powered people.

They moved slowly, and Junhyuk looked around. They were downtown, and many buildings were visible. The monsters were not only on the roads. As he raised his head, he saw a monster moving along a building’s walls.

It looked like Jeffrey’s snake monster. Snakes were twenty-meter long, B-ranked monsters. Everyone had been occupied looking at the road, so Junhyuk called out to the lead group, “We have a monster above!”

B-ranked monsters appeared alone, and the snake moved downward slowly along the wall. Everyone became terrified again.

Major Sean raised his hand. Junhyuk had read their profiles, but he hadn’t seen their powers in action. He had to push them to their limits to see their powers, and he was sure he could do that.

The snake was about thirty meters away from them, and Major Sean got ready, gathering energy into his hand. The air compressed, but nobody could see it. Five energy orbs shook in his hand, but other than that, nothing else was visible. Suddenly, the orbs turned into energy bullets that shot off toward the snake as Sean dropped his hand.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!

The snake felt the attacks. It tried to wiggle itself out of the way, but all five energy bullets hit it. Its skin was torn apart, making it look disgusting, but it did not have any serious injuries. The bullets had missed the head.

Raising its head, the snake moved forward with incredible speed. Ling Ling tried to use her wind blade on it. The wind blade could slice through buildings, but the snake was too fast and dodged the attack.

However, it did not dodge it completely. It was injured, but it wasn’t sliced in half. The snake crashed to the ground in pain.

Junhyuk was watching how they fought and measuring the range of their attacks. He was also keeping track of their cooldowns.

A Chinese man stepped forward. His body was extremely muscular, and his name was Yonghong. He summoned his armor, and it was the first time Junhyuk was seeing something like that. It wasn’t one of Bebe’s armor sets, so Junhyuk thought it could’ve been a hero’s armor.

Yonghong bumped his fists against each other, and his armor turned metallic. The snake tried to bite Yonghong, but the man held the snake’s mouth open with his hands.

However, Yonghong wouldn’t last long. He was extremely sturdy, so the snake couldn’t bite down on him, which was something that earned Junhyuk’s compliments, but Junhyuk clicked his tongue while watching. Yonghong believed too much in his steel defense, his power, but Junhyuk wished that Yonghong would use his other power soon. Yonghong’s second power could launch an enemy into the air, and Junhyuk thought he should be using it now.

He felt Yonghong’s battle sense was lagging behind the others. Yonghong had the power to turn into steel, and he was wearing a hero’s armor, so he had probably thought that he could kill the snake. However, there were no restraints on Earth. It was different from the Dimensional Battlefield.

On Earth, everyone only had one life.

Junhyuk turned to the others. Peyton pulled out a monster decomposition weapon. He was an agent with MI6, so he was more used to firearms than swords, and his power wouldn’t work against the snake at that moment.

Bang, bang, bang!

Peyton had used a pistol, but it lacked enough firepower to kill the snake.

“Help me!” Yonghong shouted. His steel defense had a time limit, so he couldn’t last much longer.

Then, Aleksei, from Russia, stepped forward. The plackart he was wearing was from Guardians, but he also had pauldrons with spikes on them.

Junhyuk felt like Aleksei had been smart in his armor choice. It looked like it gave him considerable defense, but considering his powers, it could also be used as a weapon.

Aleksei rushed. He advanced like a tank, and his shoulder slammed hard against the snake, staggering it. The spikes pierced the snake, and it bled out.

Aleksei could also stun his opponent with his rush. His power was outstanding.

Ling Ling stepped forward brandishing two claw swords. As she ran, she summoned her own armor. It was Bebe’s Black Armor, which buffed attack speed.

Ling Ling aimed her sword at the snake and raised a tornado around it. Within it, the snake got sliced by the buffeting winds.

Ling Ling ran quickly, and Yonghong ducked. She stepped on his back and jumped up, stabbing the snake’s eyes with her swords.

The Wolf Warlord claw swords punctured the snake’s brain.

Hisssssss!

The snake’s mouth burst open as it writhed in pain. Ling Ling stepped on its jaw and jumped. The snake tried to bite her a few times, closing its mouth. Once the tornado was gone, the snake dropped to the ground.

Boom!

Ling Ling checked to see if the snake was dead and pulled out her swords, shaking them to clean the blood off of them. Meanwhile, Junhyuk stared at her with beaming eyes.

“She is something.”
