Chapter 307 – The Difference Between 4.9% Sync Rate
3000 spheres of blood rotated at high speeds , as the anticipation in the crowd reached at a all-time high , everyone wanted to see that glorious move.
Rudra was bound to the earth by shockingly a move that was not blood magic , it was a normal spell . It was a blunder on Rudra's part to think that nightmare only had blood magic in his arsenal.
However , nightmare also made a mistake , in thinking that Rudra was defenseless against him , when the rain of blood bullets shot out towards Rudra , unlike what most expected , he was not pelted with the bullets …. Instead Rudra busted out TWIN BLADE HURRICANE!
/ [ Twin blade hurricane ] : A dual wielder skill , can be used to attack or defend , a very fast and intricate movement of two swords that can destroy a opponents armour and deal a lot of surface cuts , or help create a 360 degree strong defense . /
It was the same move Rudra used in his match against Parallax …. That time it was to attack , and this time it was for Defense.
An extremely fast sword defense , as blood bullets pelted against Elven sword and Excalibur , naturally Rudra's sword movements were not faster than a sea of bullets and did not provide 100% immunity , however it definitely mitigated 70% of the incoming damage.
Rudra's top of the line Knight's armour , a level 75 , dark gold grade , full armour set , further reuced the damage dealt to him . As finally a damage of -7000 registered on Rudra!
Rudra was shocked that he still recieved 7000 damage , while nightmare and the rest of the crowd was shocked Rudra recieved ONLY 7000 damage ….. What the hell was that defense technique?
( A loud uproar erupted from the crowd , they lost their minds at this exchange! )
Rudra started to close up on nightmare again , who recalled his blood dots back around him to create his signature blood Lance's , Three Lance's shot out again towards Rudra , which he evaded successfully .
This was by no means an easy feat , unless Rudra had such incredibly high stats , and unless he had such precise control over his character he would have never been able to dodge this attack .
Some Lance's literally missed his body by a centimetre…. Which was exactly the margin of error he was afforded. Had Rudra been using his VR helmet instead of the new Pods , without that extra 4.9% sync rate , he was toast!
When Rudra evaded all the attacks , the crowd anticipated him landing another blow onto Nightmare , just like the first time around when , however when Rudra went in for the TWIN BLADE CROSS SLASH , to hit Nightmare , his swords actually clashed against hard metal!
BAM! the impact sent nightmare flying , as he flipped mid air to land back on his feet , even then the momentum forcing him to slide another meter .
A shining black and red spear in his hand , a solid physical weapon . The three blood Lance's also regrouped alongside Nightmare , and transformed back into balls of blood floating around his body.
A look of utter shock and confusion spread on Rudra's face , his eyes looking as if it had seen a ghost. It was not the fact that nightmare had used a physical weapon to repell his attack that shocked Rudra , however it was the weapon itself.
Rudra knew that weapon all too well …. It was not something that a player should possess…. That blood red and black spear with the shining silver tip , inlaid with a golden dragon coiling along its body … This was a legendary grade weapon called ' Overlord spear ' used by ' That ' existance in that catastrophic event , about 2 years from today's timeline in his past life.
Why did nightmare possess it ? Why had the timeline altered soo majorly? Had nightmare foundout the route to the lost land of the dragons?
A million questions arose in Rudra's mind …. As a lot of things started to make sense now ….. The terrifying blood dragon move that nightmare used … The Overlord spear in his hands…. It had to be!
Rudra gritted his teeth , as he prepared for a brutal battle …. His chances of victory had been slimmed down to an even lower probability than before… With the Overlord spear in his opponents hands , a very difficult uphill climb awaited Rudra.
The detail that Rudra currently missed out however was the fact that nightmare was actually a very proficient physical fighter of the spear , but the reason behind him bringing out this weapon was not as simple as it seemed.
He was out of mana , he needed time to recoup from his major mana expenditure in the battle upto now. Rudra had pushed him to the limits where he needed to bring out the Overlord spear . Nightmare was at his strongest when he brought out this weapon however, he was much more than just a blood controller who fought at distance , and the world would watch it first hand ! The only reason no-one knew this fact , was because never before did his mana run out before defeating his opponent. This was a first , and for the first time, would he face a player with his full might!
———–
Derek Ray : look at that shining weapon In nightmare's hands Lee , seems like he is shifting his battle style to physical fighting , how about that!
Lee Dixon : well personally I don't think it's a good idea to fight the leader of the Elites in a close range hand to hand combat , I think he should stick to using his blood manipulation from distance. This is a double edged sword that could see him buried deep into trouble.
Derek Ray: well we never know Lee , however let's take a moment and appreciate Shakuni , coming into this match nobody had any expectations for his victory , but he is doing pretty well I'd say , this is more of a fight between equals , with twists and turns every minute. This is an excellent brawl between two champions! Who will win it…. I'm not soo sure anymore !
