Chapter 306 – Intense Match-up!
Rudra came crashing down with Excalibur , as he used Earthquake!
BOOM ! , The earth rumbled , and nightmare was shaken , his control over the blood Lance's was shaken for a moment as they deformed a little. In that very small opening , Rudra used DARKNESS BIND!
Pitch black vines shot out of the ground as they bound nightmare into an immobile position , as he watched in horror as to how Rudra was charging in his direction. His four blood Lance's trailing , as somehow they could not match upto Rudra's speed.
Defenseless , he saw the attack in slow motion , as Rudra landed a vicious OVERHEAD SLASH! With the Elven sword onto his head!
-50,000 CRITICAL HIT!
BAM! , It connected and nightmare instantly lost about 60% of his total HP. The blood Lance's had caught up and Rudra was forced to create a five yard distance. However, the damage was already done.
The crowd which was silent just a second ago , was now roaring…. Absolutely going ballistic at the sequence of moves displayed by Rudra!
Rudra was cautious , he did not want to recklessly charge in on nightmare , however he did not wish to give nightmare a chance to recover either. Hence he chose to use Darkness blast from range.
However just as he was about to use that attack …. Suddenly ( SPLAT! )
-4500!
Rudra felt a searing pain in his back , where he noticed , a blood arrow had penetrated. He did not understand how he had missed this attack …. The four Lance's were clearly infront of him… Then how?
Unfortunately he was not afforded the time to think about how it happened… As three blood Lance's came flying towards him in full speed.
While Rudra was shaking off the three Lance's , nightmare held the fourth in his hand , as he used his skill " Blood absorption ! ". Regaining 40,000 HP , bringing his health bar back upto the green shade.
Rudra gritted his teeth at this sight. His previous efforts were nullified , however he too was not going to back down , he was not Khabib , and these three blood Lance's were not fast enough to stop him. Breaking free of their constant attack pattern, Rudra found his chance to cast the dark spell …. DARKNESS ABSORB!
Darkness enveloped nightmare's feet , as he feared for another darkness bind attack , jumping to avoid its grasp. Unfortunately this time it was darkness absorb , as the darkness shot up and pierced his body , and drain him of his life.
-6000 , a damage appeared on his head
As Rudra regained his lost HP , now standing back at full HP bar!
At this point the contest had already evolved into , whatever you can do , I can do it too , even better than you do it too!
The crowd had went absolutely ballistic , roaring like a group of drunk Vikings . They were thoroughly enjoying this bout , which was seemingly evenly matched upto this point …. Or one might say , slightly in favour of the Japanese player Shakuni!

( TV replay of how nightmare slipped an arrow at Rudra's back )
Derek Ray : Look at this moment ladies and gentlemen , when nightmare was walking down to the arena , he smashes his blood vials and makes an impressive blood arc at his back , looking majestic. However look at this exact moment , where he faces Shakuni , and a small part of his blood branches out of the arc and forms a small arrow hidden behind his back , obscured from Shakuni's view.
Lee Dixon : He craftily mentains eye contact , and no challenger would back down from a staredown from his opponent . Taking advantage of this situation , he craftily sends his arrow high above the arena , where Shakuni does not suspect it to be.
Derek Ray : when the countdown starts he shifts the arc into his trademark four blood Lance's , however , it is to be noted that his blood arrow is still hovering above the arena , while noticing carefully one will notice , that one of the four Lance's is a little bit shorter in length.
Lee Dixon : Shakuni has a banger of a start that throws Nightmare off-guard , as the speed of his blood magic cannot keep up with Shakuni's agility , as Shakuni delivers a devastating strike to nightmare. However look how at the very first opportunity , nightmare stungs the arrow right into Shakuni's back , as he is caught completely off-guard. Look at his expression , he doesn't have a clue , how his opponent did it.
Derek Ray : yes but points for Shakuni to recover from that attack and recover lost HP by using dark magic of his own. I don't know how he did it, but after this initial one and a half minute , Shakuni has a slight upper hand in this fight.
Lee Dixon : what a high level fight Derek , the mental level of these two contestants , the skills shown the traps and the counters , completely exhilarating , what a matchup , worthy of being the finals of this one v one event!
Derek Ray : You can't take your eyes off for a second there , or you will miss a trap laid by this duo , oooohhhhh , we have seen this move before , the blood dots are spinning …. And they are multiplying …. Does this mean nightmare will bring out his first big move? Will we see the BLOOD BULLET?

Ethan who was looking at the match could not understand why his blood was pumping soo much …. He was feeling like a teenager all over again. In his two lifetimes there could be a handful of moments where the usually calm and collected Ethan Grey had his heart beating and his mind cheering in a mad adrenaline rush .
However right here , in this arena watching this fight….he felt it . A roar escaped his mouth , much like the 200,000 others in the arena , as he cheered on for more action! This was interesting.
Rudra was performing much better than he had anticipated , seems like he needed to put more faith in his boy … However , he was happy overall …. Seems like 20 billion was coming home 98 times over!
Another wave of adrenaline pumped in his veins , thinking about the potential money gains …. He was at an all time high , feeling the joys of life , as he gambled and enjoyed a fight . He chuckled at the thought , thinking he had regressed back to the medeival times.
——–
Rudra's alertness was on an all-time high , he had only studied the blood bullet move once and at that time he had seen that it took nightmare about 7 seconds to cast it . Which was enough for Rudra to charge in and deal damage.
Rudra knew there might be a trap set up by nightmare if he charged in , however , by not doing anything he became a useless sitting duck , which could not be allowed either. Hence he decided to move. However , at that moment he was horrified to see that two sand hands had just emerged out of the ground beneath , as they grabbed onto Rudra's legs , restricting his movement!
Even after exerting his full strength , Rudra could not break free. At that moment he looked into nightmare's eyes , which clearly said ' what you think you are the only one with restraining moves?'.
Rudra surrounded by 3000 small balls off blood was now a sitting duck , for nightmare's attack …… ( Or was he? )
