Chapter 253 - The Last Circle
Chapter 253 - The Last Circle
The enemies camping on the floor above , were wizards , hence charging head on would only mean being bombarded with a ton of spells.
Nero asked Rudra , if he should send up a swarm of undead to take the brunt of the damage , while he and Neatwit could charge in later , to take the enemy down.
However Rudra did not want to use such means , the mana recovery potions in the national battleground were far and few. And the team only had access to one intermediate recovery potion . summoning the undead would surely drain Nero ' s mana by a significant margin.
Instead Rudra wanted to try something else , something creative to handle this problem.
He instructed Neatwit to rush in from the stairs , exactly 3 seconds after he heard the window breaking.
While he himself went outside the house with Yume and looked at the first floor window. The glass window was about 4 meters from the ground. And with Yume giving him a upward boost , Rudra thought he would be able to crash in from the window , at an angle , that the enemies would not be expecting him.
Taking a short run-up , Rudra made a short jump, Yume with both his hands tightly bound together , gave Rudra a full jump boost.?Rudra launched in the air and crashed him through the window, both swords in hand.
CRASH!
The campers were surprised , they were all aiming towards the stairs hence when someone crashed through the window , they were caught off-guard.
The wizards instantly cast their spells , but , unfortunately for them , the location from where Rudra entered meant that their spells would now also become friendly fire.
Rudra dodged a mana bullet , which hit the tank right in the leg and right on time , Neatwit scaled the stairs , and engaged one wizard in close range , who was now not aiming at the stairs because of Rudra's crash .
The campers cursed as a close range fight , the wizards were pretty much nerfed once the close range fighting started , as Rudra and Neatwit targetted them first .
Wizards had inherently low defense and hp , hence under relentless assault of players like Rudra and Neatwit , they fell quickly.
The tanks tried to interfere , however their skill was clearly inferior as they were not able to fight back at all .
Their high defense and vitality meant that they did indeed last a lot longer than wizards , but that was basically that , no real threat remained as eventually both fell dead as well.
The last tank did try to escape from the window , to try run for his life , however Rudra's darkness blast ensured his death. The squad was a wipe.
Little by , little the sound of metal clashing could be heard everywhere , the 3rd last zone was ver intense in every game , however because the safezone was a small settlement with houses , the fighting only intensified.
Rudra did not wish to overly engage anyone , his position at the top of the national battleground was almost a given certain right now , however he did not want to go out without a 25 point survivor bonus.
Rudra had 26 points under his belt with 26 kills . With 12 players alive , the team would logically rank bwtween 3rd to 7 th place even if everyone was to die now.
Considering the 10 points for being number 7 , his team would have 36 points at minimum. It was almost a assured win. However Rudra wanted to leave nothing to chances.
When the second last zone shrink completed , there was only about 5 Meters circle that was left to fight in. Small portions of four houses were in the zone , what laid ahead was a bloody fight , without any space to retreat.
Here the team that attacked first lost , because everyone else would try and take advantage of two groups fighting.
However this is where nero's conserved mana would help the team. Rudra signalled Nero to go all out , with controlling as many undead as he could into the neighbouring house.
Luckily it was the house where a duo had been camping , and when the twenty or so undead rushed in the house , they were terrified.
A shriek escaped the mouths of the players , as sound of metal clashing and fighting ensued . The other two parties took the bait , and rushed into that house to disrupt the fights , only to be dumbfounded by seeing the swarm of undead there.
The other two teams ,now at the same location also broke out in a fight , as the small ground floor of the apartment had became a congested bloodbath.
Rudra outside the house was cracking his knuckles and stretching his neck muscles , as he leisurely entered the room , followed by Neatwit.
20 seconds later , a notification ensued.
#1 Victory Royale!
Winner winner chicken dinner !
Booyah!
The squad had won the National battleground , with a score of 55 points , to the second place having 21. It was a very convincing victory!
The generals all clapped inside the bunker , this was exactly what they expected from the team. They were impressed by everyone's performances , especially Nero 's part in the end , seemed like necromancer if used right was a excellent addition to the squad in National battleground.
What the generals were most happy about was that the victory was soo convincing that it seemed like a bunch of ace players had been taking on bronze level noobs.
That meant that in the actual ace lobby , the world games , this team atleast had a shot at victory.
Many voiced their concerns that Yume was useless in the squad even after knowing his buffing nature , it was petitioned that the issue be brought up to the team members and let them decide.
Ethan remained silent on the matter , Yume was not one of his introduced players , he knew the secret behind his character , however even he felt that maybe a mage or a tank could be a better fit for the team overall ,but still he kept quiet about the issue , as he felt that Rudra was a better judge , if he would have felt that a change was needed , he would probably ask for it himself.
