Chapter 208 - Remember The Name
The fighting had grown intense now. It had been 10 hours since the event started and the Elites still managed to keep a slight lead in the event.
As Rudra expected , when other guilds took notice of the Elite archballistae's dishing out arrows after arrows coupled with the fact that they were on the top of the merits table , many guilds decided to take action and destroy the ballistae.
However Rudra had already given explicit instructions to deal with such situations. The entrance had long been sealed off with reinforced concrete and the surroundings had strong Elite patrol.
If the attacking party did not attack from directly under the building they would come inside the attack range of the ballistae and the archer was instructed to redirect his fire towards the players if any hostility was shown .
This made it very hard for opposing players to attack the ballistae , however even with all these measures 3 archballistae had been damaged and put out of action in the last 10 hours. And Rudra could imagine the number piling up over time.
The rankings after 10 hours were as follows:
Merit board rankings :
1) True Elites : 122000 points
2) Frozen thorns : 111300 points
3) Eternal rebels : 101600 points
4) Twisting serpants : 101004 points
5 ) Eternal darkness : 52294 points
6 ) Elementals : 25150 points

420) never say never : ELIMINATED !
The beast tide showed no signs of slowing down and slowly but surely player numbers had started to chip down.
The casualities had started to mount as many parties had one or two members whose lives were claimed by beasts , if in a party of four members , one member died , it increased the pressure on the other three considerably . It would only lead to a faster party wipe in due time.
Luckily for the Elites , their own superior skills as well as equipment , coupled with the advanced health potions they each had in their inventory , that gave a huge healthboost quickly . The causalities were minimal.
Only 4 elites had lost their lives in the first ten hours. The teams were performing well and the farming of Merits was going at a decent rate.
Rudra wanted to seal the merit gap by gaining the 100,000 merit points token . He had been eyeing Rahim for a long time now , but the wizard showed no opening for Rudra to exploit.
After a long time , Rudra decided to create his own opening and stop waiting for it. He called over Karna for help , as he told him his plan.
Rudra's plan was simple , in his observation , the only opening to exploit and get the token , was when Rahim just finished casting a tier 2 or above spell. There would be a momentary pause , Rahim needed about 5 seconds to recover from casting such a heavy spell , before he could continue with the barrage of fireballs.
Rudra asked Karna to purposefully channel a few beasts towards Rahim , facing a surge of beasts in his direction , Rahim was forced to dish out a heavy spell , as the single shot fireballs were not cutting it out.
Rahim casted the tier 2 spell , Earth lance. As he put his palms together and placed them on the Earth .
Spikes of earth rised up in an instant , impaling 25 beasts at once!
For a moment Rahim took a breather as he straightened back up. Rudra saw his opening and instantly casted his blink spell , to teleport right under Rahim.
Clutching the token with one hand , Rudra used all the power in his feet to create distance . Rahim's eyes widened in shock , Rudra had appeared under him out of nowhere , and he still needed time to recover from the effects of casting the previous spell.
Rudra immediately bolted , running as fast as he could and?gained the posession of the 100,000 points token!
PURPLEHAZE CITY NOTIFICATION : The guild ' True Elites is in possession of the 100,000 points merit token! '.
When he put sufficient distance between himself and Rahim , Rudra raised the token in his hands proudly as he let out a battle roar!
He smiled looking at Karna , who was giving him a thumbs up!
Things were seemingly going smooth , untill out of nowhere some guy Grabbed the token from Rudra's hands , seemingly out of nowhere !
Rudra was jolted to reality , he could see the guy steal his token as if everything happened in slow motion , however was powerless to move at all. The guy had a smirk on his face , and even Winked at Rudra .
Rudra knew that face very well , he was Edge , the guild leader of Eternal rebels. The one who was the Emperor of Hazelgroove kingdom in his past life.
He took the token and ran towards the edge of the inner city wall , where he paused and looked towards Rudra , he had a cold and mocking look with a sinister smile as he said " Sorry kids , playtime is over , the Real Elites are in town now ".
Saying soo he jumped down the wall !
PURPLEHAZE CITY NOTIFICATION : The guild 'Eternal Rebels' is now in possession of the 100,000 merit points token!
The rankings had seen a massive change , there was a new leader!

The eternal rebels just gained a massive lead in rankings , they went straight from third to first.
Rudra was stunned , he never saw the man coming. He was sure that unlike him who used blink , the man used no teleportation skill , yet he managed to sneak up unnoticed , stole the token and even managed to taunt him before running away....
For the first time since being reincarnated , Rudra was on the recieving side of humiliation and disbelief. He got bested by Edge.
