Rise Online: Return of the Legendary Player

Chapter 604 The Archer Emma



Emma exuded an aura of serenity that contrasted with the intensity of the first challenge. Her red hair was expertly tied back in a bun, revealing the steadiness and determination in her piercing blue eyes.

The instant the targets began to move, Emma sprang into action with a grace that was, to say the least, unique. Each of her movements were of an inexplicable harmony, fluidity and precision, as if she were in perfect tune with the moving targets. The bow she wielded seemed a natural extension of her own body, and her arrows came to life, slicing through space with a precision that bordered on the absurd.

With a smooth, calculated turn of her body, Emma adjusted her stance to follow a special, a seagull amidst the challenge of the ducks. This seagull was worth as much as five ordinary ducks, so everyone immediately focused on it. However, before anyone could even think to act, Emma’s bowstring was pulled with an elegance that reflected her serene concentration. Her face remained calm, yet intensely focused. At the height of her breathing, the arrow was released, and the audience present was in a state of ecstasy as the arrow found its target moments after it appeared.

It was impossible to tell if Emma was lucky, if she was anticipating the moment the seagull would appear, or if she changed the target at the last moment before taking it out.

So, while the ducks changed direction and speed, Emma continued to launch her arrows with great precision. Each shot topped the previous one, leaving the spectators in a state of pure awe. Her technique was a masterpiece of mastery, her concentration something that inspired everyone present. The world seemed to slow down around her, creating a space where time bent to allow her to execute each shot in rhythm.

In this moment, Emma was far beyond what is considered ordinary. She was the embodiment of harmony between mind, body and spirit. Each arrow released was an affirmation of her excellence, a silent declaration that, in that moment, she was the best archer present.

The crowd at Staples Center was captivated by Emma’s mesmerizing performance. Murmurs of admiration and enthusiastic shouts echoed through the stands as she continued to hit target after target flawlessly. Her movements were so graceful they were reminiscent of ice skating, as if she were dancing.

The competitors next to her could barely keep up with Emma’s speed. Their gazes alternated between the moving targets and the impressive figure that dominated the challenge. Some tried to pick up the pace of their shots, but their arrows often missed the target, testifying to the difficulty of the challenge.

Commentators on the live broadcast were equally impressed.

“This is just amazing, Peter!” one exclaimed. “Emma is taking the competition to a whole new level. She is showing a mastery of bow and arrow control that is truly inspiring.”

“Absolutely, Caio!” agreed the narrator. “I can’t even imagine the amount of training and dedication she has put in to reach this level of excellence. She is making history here today. Is it possible that the fact that she also plays with a bow in Rise Online influences this evolution?”

“I don’t know, but if so, the army is missing out on a great combat training tool! HAHAHA!”

As Emma continued to master the challenge, the atmosphere in the gym became more and more intense. The other competitors could do nothing but watch and admire her unparalleled skill. Even the coaches and teams from the other states recognized Emma’s exceptional talent.

Finally, when the last target was hit and the challenge was over, the audience erupted in a standing ovation.

Emma stood motionless for a moment, her expression still calm and focused. She was breathless and ecstatic. Then, she lowered her bow and bowed briefly, thanking the audience for their appreciation. Then she waved to everyone with a smile on her face, melting the hearts in the audience and onlookers. Her beauty was unique.

Among the contestants, the mood was a mixture of admiration and respect as they looked at her.𝚘𝒱𝓁𝐞xt.𝓒𝚘𝑀

Andrew, who was positioned next to Emma during the challenge, couldn’t help but applaud along with the audience. Finally, he looked up and saw his placement in the table and saw that he was thirteenth, which was great considering that all the targets in his field of vision were also Emma’s targets, meaning he competed indirectly and directly against her.

Lara looked at Emma with an admiring smile. She felt that Emma was truly exceptional, but she didn’t know how much, so now she was eager to test herself against her.

In the stands, Klaus watched it all with a sense of pride mixed with a sense of challenge. He knew Emma was a strong competitor and now wondered how his friends would manage to top this impressive display.

The narrator of the live broadcast was still trying to process what had happened. “I’m speechless, Caio. Emma’s performance was absolutely unbelievable. She has taken the competition to a new level, and now all the other contestants will have to outdo themselves to keep up.”

“Absolutely stunning, Peter. She brought a level of elegance and a mastery that shows how far someone can go with dedication and passion. It’s clear that this is not just talent, but a combination of hard work and love for the sport.”

As the cameras continued to focus on Emma and she retreated from the front of the stands for the next round.

However, even though everyone was very impressed with Emma, Klaus suddenly heard a female, piggish and disgusting voice behind him say:

“Why is everyone applauding so much? Urgh! I hate places like this! And that girl… Why is she showing off so much?”

Klaus turned back and saw a blonde-haired woman, dressed impeccably, but with an expression of disgust evident on her face. She had a haughty posture and her blue eyes seemed to judge everything around her.

Beside her, a well-dressed man, with a somewhat uncomfortable countenance, was trying to disguise the woman’s embarrassment. He seemed to be an important figure, and Klaus recognized that they looked completely out of place in the festive atmosphere of the Staples Center.
