The Geared Immortal

Chapter 368 - Merging Of Worlds 33

The first combined server tournament Part 6

/*unedited*/

Several figures are running frantically into the dark forest following the leader of their group. The 'Man Hunter Guild' has escaped their predicament after losing a few players in their team. Although not all the guild members enter the trial, there is a significant number of their members who have entered. However, they have lost not more than 10 players already.

"Boss, you're so smart to escape that battle. I'm guessing that those 'Crimson Crown Guild' have already been wiped out."

"Tricking them into facing the six Trents is truly something. It feels good…"

"Haha… I know, right?"

The group clamored as they ran forward.

"Hey, be alert! This is only the first trial and we have already lost many of our numbers. How much more in the next two trials? Be careful now and be on guard!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Meanwhile, around the forest many players have already fallen. Although it is only the first trial almost half of the number of players who joined the contest is already eliminated.

Some protested of the difficulty but they cannot blame anyone because from the beginning they already knew that only 100 players would be able to enter the main contest. However, the fun and excitement of facing a foe and fighting in the virtual world gave each and every participant something to remember by. Many video clips have already been uploaded online and views have skyrocketed.

"What is this? Is this a movie or a game? Why is it so realistic?"

"Hey, look at this! The plants and trees in the game are diverse and different, those players… they can actually touch them? This is impossible, right?"

"Look at this fight scene… this is amazing! I need to buy one of those visors… I was a bit skeptical but now, I want to experience the game."

Many people who are not aware of the game and have been skeptical so far, has now believed in the validity of the claim that 'Merging Worlds' is truly a new world within a game.

Even the scientific community has already had their eyes on the game especially when one of their colleagues has entered the game and noticed the plants and fauna of the game are much like on earth but more. They have even discovered rare elements in-game and have a chance to interact and experiment on them. This made it possible for them to know more about it, hence a new wave of players have decided to investigate further and enters the game world.

Everything in the game is based on realism and fantasy combined. However, only death is different as one cannot see too much gore and would automatically turn those who will die into a gray floating wisp.

Endless Forest of the ruined Elven kingdom

Shin Jiao is already running towards the next location, but his speed is not that fast because he is cautious of his surroundings.

"Hey! Wait up!" suddenly a voice from behind him called.

When he turned around he can see a large number of players. It was the 'Crimson Crown Guild' who is following behind him. It seems that they are running as fast as they could without worrying about the danger on their path. Well, at least with their numbers they didn't have to worry that much.

As the guild catches up to Shin Jiao, their leader walks up to him. The red heavy armor on his body seems light as he approaches beside Shin Jiao who is now walking casually.

"I didn't thank you properly back there… I'm 'GraySword' one of the vice guild leaders of 'Crimson Crown Guild', in behalf of my group, thank you." he said while extending his hand.

Shin Jiao smiled and also extended his hand towards 'GraySword'.

The two began to converse casually while walking, which made the rest of the members feel a bit odd. They felt that they are wasting their time talking to a single player instead of rushing forward and conquering the next opponent.

However, as a part of a large guild, every member is trained and taught about following a certain rule. So they patiently walk following the two in front.

Suddenly…

Arrgghh!!!

Clang!!! Boom!!! Bang!!!

The group heard a loud fighting sound ahead of them. With a signal, 'GraySword' immediately sent out two scouts to see what's ahead.

And when they reported back, the news that the group received made them show a dumbfounded look on their faces.

The strong PvP guild 'Man Hunter Guild' is almost wiped out by a single beast. There are only a handful of players left in the guild and it seems that their HP is already low. But the good thing is, the beast's HP has also dropped significantly although not halved.

"We need to enter the battle now! We cannot let that beast's HP to regenerate back to full. Attack in a team formation, we will use one defensive formation and two groups in attack formation. Go!!!" shouted 'GraySword'.

His swift decision making skill is truly admirable making him worthy to be called as one of the vice leaders of the guild.

However, what made Shin Jiao amazed is the action of the rest of the guild members. They quickly arranged themselves in a team and ran through the forest without delay.

"It seems that you guys have prepared for this…" Shin Jiao said.

"Haha… When the news about a virtual world being developed, a lot of people felt skeptical, but not our guild leader. He immediately assembled a lot of gamers and began training us in a formation and also in fighting arts. And when the game was launched we were astounded at the foresight of our guild leader, hence we immediately grew in the game…"

"Oh, I see… You have a great guild leader then." Shin Jiao praised honestly.

"Haha, yes… but still, I think we need to step up our game. Many guilds are eyeing to build their own village. Our guild is also planning one, but the task of obtaining the permit from the city or the town is a bit difficult. So we need to prepare for it."

"That's nice… I hope that you can build your own town then. I will surely visit it, just give me a call." Shin Jiao said with thumbs up.

As the two converses, they have reached the battle area and saw the beast that the scout is talking about. When Shin Jiao noticed the beast he was a bit taken aback.

"That is not an ordinary beast! That's a… Hydra." He muttered.

When 'GraySword' heard his words from the side, his body unconsciously shivered.

What is a hydra?

Many games have depicted a Hydra as a scary monster with many heads. If that monster is really a Hydra then it would be difficult for them to defeat it.

"But this lizard is a bit tough. But I think cutting its head off would be easy!" suddenly one of the members of the guild said.

It was 'Red Blade' who said that.

His team is already attacking the huge beast along with the other groups.

Hearing his words, GraySword immediately panics and shouted.

"No! Don't! Everyone! No matter what you do, do not cut their heads off!" he shouted which gained a bit of confusion on the guild member's expression.

However, everyone noticed a group that they have deliberately forgotten, the 'Man Hunter Guild'. Their remaining players have already regained their HP to full and are now going to do a sneak attack on the beast.

Their leader who is still alive slowly sneaks behind the huge beast. Meanwhile, two people that Shin Jiao has met from the 'Man Hunter Guild' are following behind the leader.

'Mirth' and 'Spinks', these two players were the ones that suffered from Shin Jiao's hands before. The two have also noticed Shin Jiao within the group but didn't pay too much attention to him. Their goal is to claim the kill to this monstrous lizard creature. If they can kill it then their guild can harvest a fortune.

Plus many of their remaining members are already hiding in the area for an ambush.

While fighting and seeing that they are unable to win, the leader of the guild decided to make a trap for other players to enter the battle. He knew that if others saw their small numbers they would be neglected and they would focus their attacks on the beast.

And the 'Man Hunter Guild' leader's conjecture was correct.

"Haha! I 'Macbeth' will claim this prize!" he shouted as he and the two behind him suddenly rush towards the beast.

'Macbeth' the leader of the PvP guild jumps up the creature's body and began running towards its head. Meanwhile, the two began attacking from both sides distracting the creature's attention.

"That stupid f*cker!" cursed 'GraySword' as he steps forward.

"Stop! Don't do that you stupid fool!" he shouted.

"Haha… Who are you kidding, this one is ours!' 'Macbeth' shouted with a sneer on his already grinning face.

"Shit! Everyone retreats!" shouted 'GraySword' as he ran a bit of a distance away from the monster.

Following his command, the rest also distance themselves from the creature.

Seeing this, 'Macbeth' was amused.

"Do you think you can escape my trap? Hehe…" he thought as he suddenly jumps high up and waved his large ax in the air.

Everyone saw the great spectacle as they watch a small figure drew out a shimmering light from his ax as his figure fell towards the creature's head.

And with one clean slash, the creature's long neck was cut cleanly.

Everyone watches in amazement at the scene as they waited for the creature to turn into a large wisp, but nothing happened.

"Here we go!" muttered Shin Jiao.

In front of everyone's eyes, the cleanly cut stump of flesh suddenly wiggles and from there, two heads burst out and grew.

Seeing this, the audience watching the battle in the stadium shouted in amazement. This is a battle they wanted to see, a real mythical battle between humans and a mythical beast.

As soon as this happens, hundreds of comments online began flooding the chat rooms.

And one word can only describe what they are seeing… Epic!
