Chapter 214 - Twist?
The dragon was not only a destructive presence for the players , but for the beasts as well, the beasts who were once ferocious and charging towards the beast token , now whimpered away in fear. The alpha of the entire jungle had arrived , they could only give way or die .
The single fireblast that took out hundereds of thousands of eternal rebel members , also killed lots of beasts unfortunate to come in the crossfire range.
Now that it sensed that the ant human was running away , it roared in anger. The dragon needed time to get its massive frame to flight. It chose to run behind the fleeing adventurer.
It took a step forward.
Thump ! A small vibration could be feeled throughout the city , because of its weight
Thump!
The dragon closed in to about 50 meters distance between himself and Edge
Thump !
.The dragon was now only one street away from , Edge.
The dragon , took in a huge breath .... And then let out a devastating second fireblast!
Boom!
Building melted , innocent citizens died , not even traces of beasts that were out in those streets was left , while some unfortunate adventurers who came in its crossfire died.
But even soo , somehow Edge had avoided the blast and was still going. The dragon was really frustrated now.
This is exactly why Rudra did not go after Edge immediately after he saw his hp to be soo low , but waited for the dragon to act first. He wanted to see Edge's hidden cards.
It seemed as if Edge also had the blink skill , as at the last possible second he would blink himself away from the range of the fireblast.
Rudra laughed ..... ' What a sneaky B******' , however that changed into a cold look of a predator very soon .
Rudra now that he knew Edge's hidden card , he no longer hesitated in killing him. Edge had to pay afterall , pay for mocking his guild and pay for the death of vice guild master Karna.
Rudra chased after Edge , and when he thought he was sufficiently in range , he used blink to teleport right infront of a running Edge. His blade moving for his neck.
Edge was shocked to see the incoming attack , but he used blink to avoid the strike in the brink of the time , he teleported to the nearby building top . However Rudra had long expected him to do so , as a massive thunderblast was waiting for him at the spot he teleported.
Edge was shocked to see that Rudra had accurately predicted his response , and set up such an intricate trap for him.
He knew it at that point that he was going to die , he was a bit frustrated and regretfull to say the least , he thought he could win the management rights to Purplehaze city , it would have expedited him and put him on the fastlane to achieve his goals. However now , he would not even have a developed town as his base , his sureshot plan B was a place called NewWater county , it was a relatively small village near a beautiful waterfall.
The management rights of that place would not give him much as the guilds population would be larger than the NPC population of the location and he would need to spend much effort and resources developing the place.
He looked towards Rudra , whose eyes only had a cold look and face had a confident grin. It was the same look his father would have when he was about to fleece a major buisness deal. The look of a predator in control.
' Interesting..... ' was his last thought before the thunderblast zapped him out to death!
Rudra regained the posession of the 100,000 merit points token as a system notification followed

The True Elites members all over the map , breathed a sigh of relief. The guild master did it!
Some broke out in cheer , while some hugged the members around them , it was just a joyfull moment for all. It would be a lie to say that nobody had no doubts whatsoever , however everyone hoped for the guild leaders victory. And the guild leader did indeed pull through.
Neatwit looked at the notification and grinned saying ' Alright you did it ! '
Jhonny looked at the notification and said ' Took your sweet time , didnt you , Bah whatever '.
Yume looked at the notification and said ' Amitabha '
SMG looked at the notification and said ' Never had a doubt ! '.
PinkLotus looked at the notification and said ' That's why I like him , KYAA , being in the Elites is soo much better than being in the dumb alliance'.
Naomi looked at the notification and said ' I hope he's fine '.
She was more worried about Rudra's wellbeing than the merit points , to her that was more important than winning or loosing.
And her worry was not pointless , as currently Rudra was being tailed by a massive tier four monster.
As much as Rudra wanted to see , how much has the dragon gained on me? He resisted the urge to look towards the dragon , as he knew that the moment he did , it would be game over and he would be paralyzed in fear.
Running towards the inner district with all his might , Rudra had only one goal in mind. Which was reaching the royal palace!
