BXBX NOVEL Chapter 299 Start Of Round 3
"After the mind-blowing round two, which was full of unexpected results and entertainment, It is now time for round three, full of cunning plans, decisive actions, and Survival. This will be the final round, which will test the teamwork and strategy of the top twenty guilds to their limits," said the commentator.
"The winner of this round will be judged on points. The rules are simple. Each team had to eliminate as many opponents as possible while also keeping in mind to survive, teaming up with other teams is not allowed."
"Your team will receive two points for eliminating an opponent. If your team eliminates all five members, then your team will receive a bonus of five points. The points a team gains can\'t be stolen," he added.
"Now comes the confusing part. Each team that is in the top ten will receive five bonus points. Teams that reach the top five will receive ten bonus points."
"At last, the ranking will also give you some points. The numbers are as follows:
1.) First Place = 20 Points
2.) Second Place = 15 Points
3.) Third Place = 12 Points
4.) Fourth Place = 10 Points
5.) Fifth Place = 8 Points"
"Your final score will be calculated by adding all your points. The team with the most points will be the winner."
The Guilds paid attention to every little detail. The types of battles were always different. This time, it was much more complex. They had to eliminate their opponents and also survive. The members of the All-Stars were pleased with this type of game; Rishab was their trump card in this round. The other people didn\'t know how strong his Concealment was.
Rishi smiled when he heard about the rules after receiving the book from Dilip about the Concealment technique of Gnoll Scouts. He had read it thoroughly and mastered that technique; he could now remove even the traces of his smell. He had also upgraded his \'Shadow Cloak\' concealment technique, but this was not all; he also got an item called a Scout Cloak, which increased the Concealment and tricked even powerful scan spells.
"Everyone, the location for this round will be \'Drowning Island Atlanta\' Dungeon. The Dungeon is very special; a storm appears randomly from the border. This storm continues and moves toward the center of the Island to devour the Island completely. It will move in a circular way."
"This storm will start every ten hours and devour the Island in three turns. In its first turn, it will eat 1/4 of the Island before stopping for eight hours. It will then devour 2/4 of the Island and again pause for five hours before leaving only a small region. After two hours, it will start again and not stop until it devours the Island completely."
"The area of the storm is a forbidden area; you will receive damage whenever you enter it. As the area of the Island becomes smaller, the damage to the forbidden area will increase. Trust me, most of you will be eliminated in seconds in the final forbidden zone, so make sure not to enter it."
This made the game even more interesting for the stronger teams, as they now didn\'t need to search for their opponents on the whole Island. All the guilds started planning their strategies. Some wanted to be aggressive at the beginning and try to survive, while others wanted to be careful and then ambush their opponents later.
"Guys, now will all enter Atlanta Island. The location points of each guild will be chosen at random. You can rest easy at the beginning; your guild will be away from others, but as the game progresses, you will encounter other guilds."
The weak guilds sighed, as this gave them a chance to survive. After it, every guild moved to the location of the portal. Before entering, each person was given a bracelet that detected their location. It also showed their health. It would automatically transfer anyone whose HP in it reached zero.
Each guild entered the portal one by one. They disappeared and appeared on Atlanta Island. The All-Stars guild was also teleported to the border area. He looked around and saw that the area was full of trees. They have chosen Dilip, Dev, Rishi, Nina, and Vinay for this round. Manu was good with his mount, but without his mount, he could not match Nina\'s speed; she was also very good at fighting against multiple opponents.
She had finally awakened her Sword aura. Her Sword Aura could increase her attack and stun any opponent she attacked; this ability could stack to increase its effectiveness.
The best thing about her Sword Aura was that it gave a spell vamp effect; dealing damage would heal her, which gave her additional vitality. She could fight for extended periods without support, so Dev gave her a chance in this round.
No one questioned Vinay\'s selection, as he had proven himself on the dungeon raid. It was not optimal to create an undead Army and maintain it till the end, but he could develop a mini undead army, which would help them fight against Dare Dragons Guild.
The Debuffs given by Vinay were also very deadly, and he could summon creatures without the Book of Contracts. With him on their team, they could easily locate the opponents around them; no other member had this kind of versatility. Necromancers were called one-man armies because of this alone; they literally had everything one would ask for.
They started deciding their strategy: "I think we should start attacking the opponents from the beginning. They will not expect an attack this early. We will already be in the lead," said Dilip, with a hint of expectation on his face.
Dev thought about it before replying, "I think we should be more careful; fighting a strong team early would lead us into a disadvantageous position from the start."
Rishi commented, "I agree with your suggestions; I would like to add that we can first access the power of our opponents. If they are strong, we can retreat, but if they are weak, we can ambush them and eliminate them. We will have to risk everything while fighting the Dare Dragons. If we gain more points at the start, it will help us later."
"Rishab is our bet to survive, so it will be best for us to gain as many points as possible early. So later, even if he survives, we will be easily able to get into the top three," said Nina.
"I agree with Nina; the battlefield is huge at the beginning. We can take advantage of our advanced scouting, but we will be at a disadvantage as the game progresses. If we don\'t want to get third-party while fighting with Dare Dragons, we must find them before the second circle," commented Vinay.
