Chapter 247 - 2nd Day Of Selections
2nd day of selections saw selections for blacksmithing , beat the clock and Cliff fighting events.
Jhonny and Fatty Kalash were going for blacksmithing , Rudra and Neatwit were going for beat the clock , while Karna went for cliff fighting.
Everyone was shocked when Jhonny decided to go for blacksmithing event , especially Rudra who had been raining praises on him and SMG for being selected in prison escape.
He knew that Jhonny's subclass was blacksmith , however he did not know if he had any real talent. But he did not pay the matter much mind though , as he believed that it was just a third event that Jhonny was casually trying. Little did he know that Jhonny was the most serious about this event.
Rudra and Neatwit were going for beat the clock challenge , and both were pumped for the event , Rudra and Neatwit made a pact to buy lunch if the other cleared more floors than the former , however they both vowed to come number one and two and take the spots for Japan.
This event was also a mock event , the floors and the monster levels will not be the same in the actual VR Olympics , and would be more difficult.
However that did not stop Rudra and Neatwit from absolutely mauling their way through the first 20 floors..
Both of them had absolutely no chill , although for a five minute clock timer , after clearing it in 3 minutes they could wait for a next minute , drink some potions and restore stamina before going up , the two just kept climbing floors like it was piece of cake.
Neatwit was a absolute machine in farming mobs as it was his full-time job and only passion in the game . For the first 20 floors he was even faster than Rudra by a full minute in time taken to clear.
Only when the monsters crossed level 40 did he start slowing down , and Rudra caught up. Rudra started to show his massive stat advantage after floor twenty , as when Neatwit slowed down and had to take his time to deal with the monsters , he with his stats was still a slaughter machine.
At floor 25 he overtook Neatwit , and by floor 30 he had a one minute lead over the guy.
The monsters got level 55 at floor 31 , and now even Rudra had to be careful , the clocktimer now showed 4 minutes time for each level , and it was more difficult than before.
For the first time , after clearing the floor in 2 minutes 50 seconds. Did Rudra stop to drink a stamina potion. He was still at 90% hp , however he still drank a basic HP potion. Before going up.
Rudra became more sensible in his fighting floor 32 onwards , as he started to clear the floors only 30 minutes before clear time. He could clear it faster if he wanted to , however he understood that this competition was about lasting the longest and not about going the fastest. Hence he went into energy saver mode.
At floor number 40 , Neatwit had once again caught up with Rudra. However contrary to Rudra , who was conserving strength , he was still going at full pace. Farming mobs was a sort of addiction for him , and he was a machine deriving pleasure from slaughtering them , he was physically burning out , but mentally in a ecstasy.
Monsters became Level 65 at floor 41 and the time limit was shortened to 3.5 minutes.
Rudra really started to feel the pressure now , as he started to climb the floor with barely 10 seconds to spare.
Neatwit was barely hanging on , clearing floor 42 and 43 with less than 3 seconds to spare.
At floor 44 , Neatwit missed?the timer and was teleported outside , his current rank was one. However it changed to two within 3 seconds as Rudra cleared floor 44.
Neatwit who was panting , saw the leaderboards and saw that nobody else crossed level 40 , and that some were still struggling at level 32 while most between 32 and 44 had missed the clock.
He looked proud , firstly for himself , and next for Rudra who was still climbing at floor 49.
Rudra was out of breath at floor 49 , he summoned durahal and used ten thousand cuts , he started to use his big moves now as he barely cleared the floor.
At floor 50 he was forced to use thunderblast and darkness blast as he climbed with 1 second to spare.
At level 51 there were 5 level 75 orcs , weaponized and with a armour. Rudra looked at the timer which now said 3 minutes and cursed.
Not holding anything back , Rudra used world Slash and everything else in his arsenal , but he still missed the clock as he was teleported out at level 50 .
He got a system notification congratulating him on his first place , as Neatwit was smiling waiting for him in the lobby.
Rudra looked at the leaderboards and saw that at level 44 he was second. Beating level 40 at 3rd place.
Rudra grinned and said " Guess dinners on you ".
Neatwit high fived Rudra as they chatted leisurely , catching their breaths.
The people inside tactical bunker were now clapping at the performace of the two Elites , especially for Rudra who had obtained first place in back to back two events. He appeared as a strong medal contender.
Again praises were showered on Ethan Grey , for finding talents like them.
Ethan was very satisfied with Rudra and Neatwit's performance , it got his blood pumping with motivation. He felt like he wanted to crush Mithun Ambani into dust today itself!
He laughed the urge off , if everything went good and Japan did obtain the VETO rights , then that day would not be too far out.

( Meanwhile in the forging event )
The materials for the forging event had been given out , and the candidates had 18 hours time to make the best creation out of the materials they were given .
The criteria for judging would be based on 1st the quality of product ie , the tier bronze , silver, gold , dark gold , epic , semi legendary , legendary etc.
Even the most basic silver item would outrank the most useful bronze item. Only within same ranks was the usefulness evaluated.
Fatty Kalash was doing brilliantly as he tried to forge a hammer for forging. Meanwhile Jhonny was trying to forge a assasins knife.
It had only been 2 hours since the event started , hence it was still a long way out to the finish line!
