Chapter 272 - Closing In !
Rudra cleared level 65 , and showed absolutely no signs of slowing down , completing level 66,67,68 all with 20 seconds or more to spare. The world started to uproar now , the further he climbed unhinged the stronger became the antic.i.p.ation of gold from him.
Parallax"s level 70 achievement that seemed untouchable uptill now , was now seen as a fragile record that might be broken any minute. The world was watching with bated breaths , the allies of j.a.pan watched it in happiness and antic.i.p.ation , while the European union of whom Ireland was a part of , wanted nothing more than Rudra to fail at level 69 , because they did not wish to loose the gold medal position.
Apart from them , Mithun Ambani was a absolutely livid about the situation , j.a.pan winning double medals on the first day with one being a gold , spelled trouble for him. His country"s representative already failed at level 56 , and hence the hopes of getting a medal in that event were shattered there and then .
When the connection that both Neatwit and Shakuni , were not only the representatives of the same nation , but from the same guild was made , a lot of limelight was brought on the True Elites guild. The tales of them defeating a seven first rate guild alliance and other legendary feats became a topic of widespread discussion.
This effect was only to increase with time , as more and more elites won medals. This was also a part of Rudra" s plan , he wanted to bring glory to his guild , soo that it would act as a detterance against those who plotted against his guild.
-------
Derek Ray : Only two monsters left on floor 69 and fourty seconds to go , will he be able to make it Lee?
Lee Dixon : Absolutely yes Derek , this level is as good as clear. This is astonis.h.i.+ng , j.a.pan maybe closing in on a gold with Shakuni.
Derek Ray: It"s j.a.pan"s lucky day , eh , Lee , two medals on the very first event , what"s more interesting is that both members are also from the same guild called the True Elites , of whom Rudra is the guild master.
Lee Dixon : Well the rumor mill tells that True Elites is a guild of wonders , Shakuni built the guild as a gathering place of only the best of the best talents in the world . Only the true experts have the right to be called an elite. With the backing of the trillionare Ethan Grey , it"s quite notorious in Hazelgroove kingdom , that guild , it has a history of seemingly impossible victories.
Derek Ray : Well adding to that list should be Shakuni"s gold medal today, if he wins one , because n.o.body thought anyone can even come close to Prallax , yet this guy might just do it.
Lee Dixon : Well about that Derek , yes he can absolutely do it , as only one monster stands between him and the next level with over 25 seconds left.
Rudra killed the last monster in the next 7 seconds , clearing floor 69 with 18 seconds to spare.
Moving with his routine , he squatted down and downed a advanced stamina potion. Waiting for the clock to his 5 seconds. Refres.h.i.+ng his mind untill then.
Rudra had no idea as to what level would be enough to get the gold medal , he had to try go as far as he could and hope for the best outcome . In his previous life level 69 was where Parallax was defeated . Hence if it was the same this time around then he should have safely won gold medal. But as nothing was sure , he would not take any chances.
Rudra moved onto level 70 , and the world watched in antic.i.p.ation , should he be able to clear this level , then he would become the first gold medal winner in the history of the event.
--------
Derek Ray : This is it ladies and gentlemen , If Rudra clears this level he wins gold for j.a.pan , if he falls here Parallax keeps his crown
Lee Dixon : what a nail biting first event eh Derek , I"m not even j.a.panese and my heart"s beating out of my chest , I"m soo excited.
Derek Ray : Absolutely Lee , VR Olympics is a very thrilling and entertaining event , I"m sure millions across the globe feel the same way as you do.
Lee Dixon : Well what exemplary fighting style by Rudra , you have to commend his sword skills Derek , he is the best dual wielder of swords iv seen in my gaming career. What precise control , what accurate movements.
Derek Ray : Well players like him and Parallax cannot be judged by common sense , even amongst all these world cla.s.s players who competed here today , these two stand a cla.s.s apart. They are especially phenomenal .
Lee Dixon : ooh , what a close call , should Shakuni have been hit by that paw swipe he would have been in big trouble , excellent agility shown by the player.
Derek Ray : But that retreat has got him in the middle of three fierce beasts Lee , he is In trouble now .
Lee Dixon : well it sure seems like that Lee , however I don"t see a drop of fear in the face of Shakuni , who is smiling at the beats as if telling them to bring it.
Derek Ray : Well he was called the demon of death valley once by players on the forum. That look on his face right now is definitely what a demon would have.
Rudra unleashed a skill from elven sword for the first time ever , 10,000 swords was used. And countless swords manifested themselves in the air.
10,000 swords attacked the three beasts that were trying to circle on Rudra , it was a brutal attack as not a single part of their body was left unpenetrated by the small swords , they died on the spot!
Only two more beasts left , with over 50 seconds left , Rudra was closing in on a sure victory!
