War Grounds

[Neutral ally, Papa Bear is about to die. Do you wish to use the "Instant Salve" on him?]

Al was just about to click "No" when SARS" autopilot had chosen "Yes."

"What? We could have used that item! Now, it"s gone!"

[We"d have more chances of winning with a tank. Don"t interfere, weakling.] SARS scolded.

...

After SleepNot"s death, SARS controlled Udil to descend the trees and crouch his way towards the others. The safe zone"s barrier was constantly enclosing; it was just 80 body units behind him.

He continued to observe the battle, and the news of Papa Bear being Ogni"s little brother shocked Al, big time. "No way! How come, he"s so weak?" The boy could not believe it.

[It takes one to know one.] SARS interjected.

( -_- ) Al was helpless.

...

Papa Bear"s HP was steadily decreasing. It was currently at 50%. "d.a.m.n, come here you midget, I"ll crush that little brain of yours!" He kept on swinging his hammer towards Zaito, missing every single time.

"This is getting boring, Zaito. You"re ruthless! Just let the three of us join, and we could hunt that last one, together." SonOfJustice yawned.

"Wait. Will you?" Zaito shot a glare towards him.

The Divine Guardian gulped, taken aback by the murderous intent coming from his ally.

"Dock!" Suddenly, Fale warned Cloud9, who was casually whistling.

Trik!

A Magical Arrow connected on the Elf Swordman"s upper lip when he turned around to check the direction of danger, not seriously taking the Elf Ranger"s advice. His full HP rapidly decreased to 40% and was rendered in a stunned state for 3.5 seconds.

"Scatter and beware of ambush attacks!" Zaito immediately commanded.

"Guard Cloud9, Alpha. SonOfJustice, you may join now, let"s quickly bring this orc down." If not for Fale"s foresight, he would not have noticed the fired arrow.

"Looks like, we"re facing an expert hunter here. Stay vigilant." Zaito warned as he increased his pace in attacking the orc.

"Haha! Udil, my man. You"re the real deal. Thank you for this opportunity. Now, show me your brains, you dumb elf!" Papa Bear had finally realized what Udil had been doing all this time. Without minding the ongoing onslaught of Zaito and Fale, he activated "Steel Bones", and charged his way towards the stunned Cloud9.

"Over my dead body! Come!" Alpha, the Murloc Swordsman, braced himself against the charging orc.

"Sword Spike!" The Murloc stabbed his sword on the ground, and earth spikes protruded towards Papa Bear.

"I"ll eat that!" Papa Bear was like a maniac as he disregarded his low HP, facing head-on the skill from Alpha.

[That guy"s a noob like you. Always be mindful of your HP.] SARS lectured, while charging Udil"s burst skill - Power Arrow. He was currently crouching 20 body units, west of Cloud9"s character, blending well with the gra.s.ses and flowers.

Whoos.h.!.+

A gurgling sound swept the ground; the Power Arrow quickly reached its target. Another headshot!

[Udil had slain Cloud9.]

"Where is he?!" Zaito demanded from Fale.

Power Arrow had left a clearing in the gra.s.ses, which should have revealed Udil"s position. However, after releasing the skill, SARS used Blink and teleported into another area - inside a bush, ten body units, east of Fale.

"d.a.m.n!" Alpha was caught off guard by the sudden death of Cloud9. He failed in guarding his ally.

"So sad, you"re my next target then!" Papa Bear"s face turned grim, upon the sudden loss of his prey.

"Skull Basher!" The Orc Charger slammed his hammer towards the Murloc like he was just pounding a mole.

Clang!

"Hmph. Did you block it? Not bad. Eat this, then!" Papa Bear turned around and gave off a roundhouse kick, catching the swordsman off guard, who had just previously used his last skill, "Parry" (Allows user to block the next attack. Must block it with your weapon.).

"Hehe! So soft" The orc snickered as his kick landed on the Murloc"s abdomen, sending the latter rolling on the ground. Meanwhile, he kept on receiving attacks from SonOfJustice, Zaito, and Fale.

Due, to the threatening presence of Udil, the Magician and Ranger were not able to go all out. However, they did not worry as their target had only 19% of his HP left.

"Udil! Come out now, man! I"ll die at any moment soon!" Papa Bear shouted, not understanding his ally"s motive.

"Die!" SonOfJustice had been hammering Papa Bear for quite some time already, but due to "Steel Bones," all he could do was add some damage.

"Fvck off! My hands are full! Let me kill that Murloc first!" Papa Bear growled, sending a kick towards the Divine Guardian, which the latter easily evaded.

After Udil switched positions, Al expected SARS to infiltrate the Team B and waive his way around, saving Papa Bear. However, the bot remained in a crouched position, carefully observing Fale, who kept on glancing around now and then, while keeping the Orc in check.

When Fale had turned her head towards the opposite direction of Udil, the latter finally stood up and fired arrows toward the Elf Ranger. His release was rapid - five consecutive shots towards Fale"s head in two seconds.

[Warning! Warning! Current actions could not be sustained. The technique used was extremely stressful for the user.]

SARS would have fired more shots if not for the system"s warning. Meanwhile, Al felt his head spun as he felt a pang in it.

[Apologies, Al Gentrix So Strong. It seems that your current state could not keep up with the brain activities. I will resort to a game of attrition then.] SARS immediately apologized.

[Updating Battle Plan. Saving ally, and heading towards designated Safe Zone.]

Zaito, who was on high alert from the moment Cloud9 was slain, immediately saw Udil stood up from the gra.s.s. He, too, was astonished by the technique displayed.

Although bow-wielding users would not run out of ammunition, while using their basic attacks, it was still mind-boggling to see a player shooting the arrows with G.o.dlike speed and precision.

"Fale!" Zaito"s warning was a half-step too late. The Elf Ranger immediately rolled, but the first shot happened to graze the upper-back portion of her head, interrupting her execution. Fale fell on the ground, while the remaining four arrows pa.s.sed above her, hitting the next target - SonOfJustice.

SARS took advantage of the positioning of Fale. If the Elf Ranger dodged, it would still hit the character in front of her - SonOfJustice, who"s back was exposed as he was currently busy in pounding Papa Bear"s body.

The four basic attacks landed on the Divine Guardian"s shoulder blades, shedding off 8% of his life. It did not deal much of damage, but it hampered SonOfJustice"s rhythm.

When he turned his head around to check the attacker, his head was immediately smashed by Papa Bear"s Hammer, triggering a stun-effect.

"Fvck, that hurts!" SonOfJustice growled! He happened to turn on the sensitivity option of his "Battle Station." He felt the sting on his head.

"Haha! Just because I"m gonna kill that Murloc first, does not mean that you should take your eyes off me. Get lost!" Papa Bear kicked the stunned Divine Guardian, sending the latter sprawling on the ground.

"You finally showed yourself, you naughty kiddo! Come, let"s kill these fledglings!" Papa Bear welcomed Udil, who had now joined the fray, busily dodging Fale and Zaito"s combined attacks.

"SARS, my head"s spinning! s.h.i.+t! Stop rolling!" Al could not make out what"s going on due to the rapid changes in his view.

[Hold on. We"ll shake these attackers soon!] SARS calmly advised, while dodging with ease the combined attacks of his attackers.

"There"s no time to talk! Follow me! Let"s take some breather first!" Udil replied to Papa Bear, using SARS" voice.

"Huh? You sound like a robot, man! Well, now that you had mentioned it, I"m indeed running out of breath. Woooo! Where to go?" Papa Bear gleefully ran towards Udil.

"To the forest." Udil quickly replied as he changed his direction, heading towards his previous hiding place.

"Eh? But it"s almost outside of the safe zone"s barrier?" Papa Bear might be stupid, but, he"s not.
