New Life Online 62 Flame God

"So you used the West Forest route to ambush people who already got the requirements," Drake said.

Dark Brotherhood is also one of the strongest guilds. They have the best a.s.sa.s.sins. Their hideout is still unknown and they are only a few in their guild so all their secrets are safe. Only those who they think are qualified to be one of them can join. I don't really want to mess with these guys with a reputation like that.

"Don't flatter yourself. We are just waiting for one of our guild member who's already on his way back here. I just tried to surprise you. That's all." Shiv's aura is strong. I can tell.

You can feel that he's an easy going person but we can't say for sure. You don't know if he's planning something. You can't also see his face because of his hood like mine. a.s.sa.s.sin's ident.i.ty is the most important for them.

"So you have someone here with a bad record huh. You know, he might kill all of you right now if he wants to." Does he really think I can do that? Drake is also strong, I can tell.

"You are really underestimating our power you know. We need to go now. See you at the tournament." Drake replied. They just looked at us while we continue moving. I really thought it will become a fight, but I guess it's better with this outcome.

-After a couple of minutes-

"SWOOOSH SWOOOSH SWOOOOSH! Random projectiles are flying towards Serpentes and Hearth Fire.

"CLANG CLANG CLANG!" Venum parried all the projectiles with his dagger in swift movements.

"You still haven't change Shiv... You really love to give harsh greetings... Ssss..." Venum said.

"Not bad, Venum. An a.s.sa.s.sin like you can easily predict my movements. I thought for sure I can easily kill your members." a.s.sa.s.sins have a pa.s.sive that increases their detect chance and also increase their hiding or sneaking abilities.

"Do you want to fight us? We can easily crush you right now!" Bludgeon is hot-headed as usual.

"Don't mind him Bludgeon, it's his way of saying h.e.l.lo... Let's just go... Sssss..." He suggested.

They moved out trying to catch up to the people at the front.

Dark Brotherhood members also are on their way back to the city after the one they sent returned.

The Four Guilds also got what they needed and decided to use the Icy path because it's faster. The Ice Wyvern also left the area so they can travel with faster speed this time.

Ravens Guild members are on their way back to the city too. We haven't seen them for the last couple of hours because they used their flight spell. It wasn't as fast s Scythus but it doesn't use too much mana.

-North Gra.s.sland-

Hmmmm? I feel tremendous aura not far from here. I checked the area earlier while flying but I didn't see anything suspicious. It must be nothing.

"I know you feel it to Scy, it's the aura of the third and fourth G.o.ds. We haven't seen them because the third G.o.d uses Fire Magic and Fourth G.o.d uses Earth Magic. I'm pretty sure they're traveling below the ground right now. Fourth G.o.d is called Land Shark because he has the ability to Dig below the ground like it was water." Drake said. A player who travels below the ground? Is that safe?

"Yeah, I can feel their auras. They are already getting closer to us too." I replied.

"Don't worry, they aren't as hostiles as others though, the third G.o.d has an att.i.tude sometimes. Anyway, let's just focus on traveling. We are already near the city. Just an hour and we will be there." With these kinds of mounts, I really think it's possible within an hour.

"They are getting closer and closer back to the city! Are you excited on who's going to complete the Elimination Round first? We all are! We heard that all of the players already are in the gra.s.sland biome and that means it will not take too long before they reached the city!" Aika reported once again. She said we are all in the gra.s.sland biome. I really should move out now.

"Haha. Whoever completes first the elimination round will be having the t.i.tle "The King or Queen of the Icy Mountain" and he or she will also earn a reward from the game company. Good luck to all players who partic.i.p.ated in the race." Wow, a reward. I better get moving and get that!

"Wow! Did you hear that? A reward from the game company! That will be a b.u.t.t... large loads of money! Partic.i.p.ants are getting more and more excited knowing that they are all near the city! Good luck to all of you!" She exclaimed.

"Scy, the third G.o.d is already catching up to us. It seems they already emerged from the ground with the fourth G.o.d. They are really compet.i.tive guilds. They will do anything to win the tournament and the reward from the game company." This is really bad. I might not get the rewards.

Ughh... even with the horses of the Dragoons, they are still catching up.

"Drake, thanks for the ride but I need to move now. See you later in the tournament." I said my thanks.

"Alright, just don't get killed and we are still aiming for the top too!" Drake is pushing his limits too.

I used my Fire Boosters to increase the gap of our distances. Upon checking the third G.o.d, he and his horse are covered in flames! He was alone this time. He wants to get the reward for himself! He uses the fire to increase his speed just like mine. But I will not falter. I need to win this for my team!

I increased the amount of mana when using my fire boosters and it dramatically improved my speed. There's no way he can catch up to me with this speed. Ugh! My hp is dropping so fast because of the friction of air!

d.a.m.n it. Even the Order of Light Guild is also racing for the first place. I can already see all of the other guilds below me. This time they are all going all out. They are using all of their resources to just get the first place.

"SWOOOOSH SWOOOSH SWOOOOSH!" It's the raven woman! Of all times!

"SWOOOOSH SWOOOSH!" I successfully evaded her attacks, but this time she's getting closer and closer with her dive from above improving her speed. Jeez!

"Yeah! They are almost in the city! Only a couple of kilometers! People of the New Life Online, Let's welcome the "King or Queen of the Icy Mountain!" Aika excitedly shouted.
