Chapter 411
Chapter 411: On to the next.
With the appearance of only Luciano and Damon, Tessie’s team was more confident that they had a chance of surviving the attack.
This was because most of them awakened the water element and since they were surrounded by a large body of water they could easily counter Luciano’s golden flames.
They had no clue that this was all part of Blake’s plan to give them hope that they had a chance of defending the attack.
They began by casting water wheel and preparing their spells as they waited for Luciano and Damon to act.
“Isn’t it suspicious that the 2 teams we have met were warped into the most favorable locations?” Luciano said as he saw most of team 10 members casting water wheel.
“You are right, the last team had quite a number of plant users and were placed in the middle of e a forest .” Damon said causing Gibson who was back at the castle to turn to Principal Lovren.
“It doesn’t change anything.” Blake said bringing their attention back to the task at hand.
.....
“We have 10 more teams after this, so let’s get over with this.” Luciano said as his entire body was engulfed in golden flames.
Luciano charged at Tessie’s team, flying over the surface of the lake while dogging hundreds of spells coming at him.
Damon on the other hand activated lightning reinforcement and began conjuring mana platforms as he ran above the water body.
On getting to the range of the mother Trees, Damon stopped and began firing lightning spells at them while Luciano continued moving forward.
With the great maneuverability granted by air spells and the occasional thrusts from the fire element, Luciano was able to skillfully dodge the hundreds of water spells pouring his way, but things became more difficult with the involvement of the plant roots that shot up from underwater.
“This is annoying.” Luciano frowned.
With all the attacks coming from all angles Luciano had no other choice than to keep dodging because the wind element didn’t possess enough defensive or offensive capabilities to match the power of the attacks.
As for the fire element, he had more than enough firepower to match theirs but to what end?
Not only would the result of the clash create steam that would be disadvantageous to him, but he would spend way more mana to match their firepower, while they expended only a fraction of their mana.
“He can’t get close, keep firing!” The team leader screamed at the top of her lungs.
‘From everything I know and have seen, even if Luciano or Damon were to come alone, they should still be able to wipe out our team, talk less of 2 of them working together.’ Tessie thought.
“This is too easy, it is a trap.” Tessie came to a conclusion after seeing how easily Damon’s attacks were being blocked and how Luciano was unable to maneuver through their attacks when he was meant to be the best in aerial combat.
“What do you mean it is a trap?!” The team leader asked in confusion as she didn’t stop continuously firing spells from the water wheel.
“This is way too easy, this is definitely Blake’s plan.” Tessie said as she began looking around in search of Blake.
After being with Blake for so long, she had learned that things were not as simple as they looked whenever facing him.
‘Am I wrong?’ Tessie said to herself after looking around and not spotting him, but that was when she looked up, only to see Blake falling on the island.
“Above us!” Tessie alerted her teammates but it was already too late.
BOOM!
Blake crashed onto the island before releasing an explosion that destroyed the yellow flag and sent everyone flying away.
“I am sorry, but it has to be done.” Blake said as he appeared in front of Tessie and grabbed her face before electrocuting her.
“Fuck!” Tessie’s teammate cursed as they quickly recovered and turned to Blake.
“Are you guys kidding me?” Blake chuckled at their futile efforts, but that was when Luciano and Damon eliminated them from behind.
“A quick check on our flag and we will be on to the next one.” Blake said as he activated void shift.
...
After seeing how fast team 5 had been eliminated, every team had been keeping a close eye on the leaderboard.
So immediately Blake’s team eliminated Tessie’s team, everyone was already aware of it.
It was now clear to everyone that this was no coincidence, that Blake and his team were planning on eliminating every single one of them.
“With this everyone should agree to my plan.” Serhan thought as he flew into the air.
From the moment the cube had ‘randomly’ selected Blake, Luciano, and Damon in one team, he knew something like this would happen.
That was why immediately after all teams had been selected he had discreetly sent someone to every to inform them of his plan for every team to fight together against that of Blake.
𝑓r𝘦𝘦𝘄eb𝒏𝙤vel.c𝙤𝙢
Some of the team had agreed to this plan, while a few didn’t agree because they felt they couldn’t trust him.
Regardless, he informed them about the signal in case they changed their minds.
“It’s time to initiate the plan.” Serhan said to his team members as he shot a large fireball into the air.
After waiting for a few seconds 2 large fireballs shot into the air from both sides, and like that, a chain began.
All the teams that saw the fireball would shoot up theirs as a sign of agreement and also inform those farther from the origin point.
Not only was it a signal, but it was a way of tracking down Blake.
Since he and his team had no clue of the plan, Serhan could guess the general location of Blake’s camp from the areas that didn’t shoot the fireball.
