MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master-Novel

Chapter 256 - Conclusion

Rounds after rounds of dodging ensued , SMG and his team won them all , sometimes it would be a breeze and sometimes it would be a pinch . However little by little the team's performance improved in the event , as strategies were starting to be made , and enemy's were sabotaged.

SMG himself started to do better , he was nimble on his feet and started to get into the rhythm of dodging , although the use of palms and feet to defend was allowed , SMG did not want to use the privilage.

Some games he would be eliminated because he did not dodge fast enough , while in some a ball would just barely nick a body part and he would be eliminated.

However game after game , the improvement was visible , after proper training and technique that made use of hands and feet , SMG would perform much better .

This was just the kind of growth Rudra wanted in his guild members from the VR Olympics , SMG would come out of the event as a complete dodging beast , no sword would be able to catch his movement.

SMG and his seeded squad finally qualified as National representatives!

( Meanwhile , in the capture the flag event )

Karna had gone for the big central flag first.?His strategy was to secure the five big points first , and then just broaden the lead right from the get-go.

The team was divided into assault and defense. Patch and Jin Mori and Cola were Defense , guarding the base and the flag.

While , everyone except Jhonny English and Medivh was Assault squad.

Jhonny and Medivh , were the special force unit , that was tasked to join either attack or defense as required , while their main job was that of a scout.

The centre was a bloodbath , However , Karna and the group was able to secure the central flag for the first exchange.

While the team retreated , the swarms of attackers were held back by the sepcial units , Jhonny and Medivh.

Medivh casted a earth spell , and made a mud wall regularly in the path of retreat , while Jhonny sprinkled Spikes laced with poison on the ground

The duo made the life of the pursuers a lot harder , ane gave enough time for the assault squad to safely retreat to base and draw battle formation.

Now the ten man squad at its full glory were ready to defend the flag untill respawn . Although many parties were present , none of them recklessly engaged , as sooner or later the flag would respawn , however the death of members could never be compensated.

Hence most leaders chose to retreat , and wait to fight it out again in the central area. However there were always some brainless idiots , who would choose to fight nonetheless.

These idiots were slaughtered by Karna's team. The white flag dissapeared , and +5 points was displayed at their base's display board.

They were top of the leaderboard , with these 5 points secured.

Karna knew that fighting for the white flag again at this specific moment was stupidity , all ten members of his team were back near the base , whereas many squads were already at the central area where the flag had spawned.

Hence he chose to instead raid the nearest flag base of yellow team. In a simmilar attack formation , the five assaulters followed in a short distance by Jhonny and Medivh , swarmed the 3 men guarding yellow base.

The three were no match for Karna and other top 10 players , as they were cut through like knife in butter.

Yellow teams flag was then taken , and given to Jhonny and Medivh , to take back to base. The assault squad was planning to go onto purple squads base and steal their flag too before retreating.

Jhonny took the flag , and he and Medivh retreated , when Medivh noticed that they had pursuers on his tail. Using communication magic , the defenders at the base were informed of this development.

This is where Patch Mori showed his class as a Zombiemancer. Summoning over 50 zombies , a entire unit stood guard in protecting the base.

When the enemy closed in , they were terrified to see 50 zombies guarding the area. Clad in armour , and standing in formation ,one could tell that they were not mindless monsters at all.

Patch Mori showed precise control as the zombies surrounded and killed the pursuers very methodically. Jhonny placed the flag in the base area and after a while a +1 mark showed in the base tally.

Overall the capture the flag event was running smoothly , as Karna also came back with purple team flag.

The team then stuck to raiding these two bases time and time again , till after their third attack all the members of the base died . Unexpectedly upon destroying a base , they found out that +2 points were awarded.

They took back the white flag two more times and solidified their overall lead at 25 points above number two position with only 10 minutes remaining.

With all 10 members alive , it was a decent performance overall. However it was far from perfect. A lot of mistakes were made and the overall battle plan was not 100% efficient. Karna had a lot of learning to do.

Unsurprisingly at the end with a lead of 22 points the team took the number one spot and hence earned their right to become japanese representatives.

With this the selections came to an end. All the events representatives for japan had been completed , and from the next day onwards only training would ensue.

The final list of participants was published , and a training schedule where one would train atleast 3 hours a day inside the training camp was mandatorily imposed for the entire month of November.

Rudra was looking forward to this period , the government's support towards development of each player would be at the highest in this month. Good skills good sparring partners , good armour , anything and everything would be given , as long as he needed it.

Rudra had to only place a demand and the country would do it's best to procure it for him. Such was the importance of the gold medal for the nation .

A total of 23 Elites were selected in a total of 29 events , it was a number that made Rudra proud , his guild had a high representatives number , with the world watching , it was sure to leave a impression in the minds of all players.

As a result of the announcement of the VR Olympics , the prices of commodities such as potions and blacksmithing items like armour and swords had skyrocketed.

Epic and above rated items were selling at the prices of real world islands , as countries were paying insane amounts of money to procure anything that could be helpful to the players.

Some items were forced off from low level players , while some items were stolen from others , but as long as it helped the players , the country would sully their hands and make sure that they got it for the players.

Mithun Ambani spent a fortune on acquiring good equipment for his people. He spend billions of dollars this time around , and only chose from the best of the best .

However contrary to his situation , The Elites lifestyle guild was bathing in money . The potion selling buisness had seen them selling a single advanced mana potion for 500 coins and still the stock would sell out everyday.

The guild was making more money than it ever imagined as profit margins for products stopped making sense after a while. 500% margin 600% margin , yet they would sell out the moment they were put for sale.

Being a 30% owner of the guild , Ethan Grey was actually making money everyday , contrary to Mithun loosing everyday , even though Ethan was literally spending more money on the Elites.

The ten billion dollar equipment the VR pods had just been delivered to the upside and as Rudra was still inside the game , one unit was carefully installed in his room and one in his office , as they awaited further instructions.

It seemed like the gears were turning at a faster speed than ever , real world crime saw a spike as the knowledge that some friend possesed a rare item worth big money , motivated people to commit crime to extort money.

The governments of various countries were aware of this development , however with the cuber corporation being in-charge of the future VR Olympics event , no country wanted to take a action just one month prior to the event.

The hype within the general public was insane about the VR Olympics , the growing popularity of Omega saw many viewers following Omega news daily.

With the Olympics drawing closer it was a world attraction now , as analysis about the various events and various participants was made daily.

Although not every country made their list of participants public , as that would be a very dumb move. To let the world know your opposition ahead of time and let them prepare for it, some big names did personally reveal their participation in certain events. Some just wanted the attention , while some were bluffing about their involvement , either way the media tried to interview all potential participants .

Only one month remained till the start of VR Olympics , all teams were made , and training had started for them all. After this single month , at the VR Olympics the fate of each country would be at the hands of a certain few players.
