Chapter 231: [Bonus Chapter] Team test (17).
Under the cover of darkbringer, the team reached the location of the battlefield undetected.
Tessie's team had raised a wide expanse of land to over 6 meters high, giving them an advantage as they attacked the ants as the ants tried to climb up.
"It isn't a bad set up, but we don't have to do a thing because they would eventually be overrun by the ants." Damon said.
"You might be right, but from what I am seeing they are aggressively farming points. If they wanted to escape it wouldn't be too hard since they have the Photomancer." Blake pointed out.
"So we should deal with your girlfriend first?" Sach asked. After Kade had said the same thing and Blake hadn't refuted it, he thought it was normal.
"Eliminating only her gives them so chance of survival, we have to make sure none of them makes it out of here." Blake said with a serious look on his face.
'Is he naturally evil or is it because of the test?' Beyoni couldn't help but think when he heard Blake.
"Just leave it to me." Blake signaled Damon to dispel darkbringer before he stepped out of their hiding place.
"I am on a tight schedule, please can you guys make things easier for me?" Blake announced his presence to the group.
"Shit it's Blake!" One of Tessie's teammate screamed his name when saw him, drawing the attention of the rest.
'There is no hope at all.' Tessie shook her head as she saw Blake with ebony and ivory in their combined form resting on his shoulder.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe currently felt helpless and had lost a will to fight, but that was when a female teammate began sobbing before pulling out a blade and stabbing herself.
Things weren't going well for them. They had the 2nd lowest score when putting the eliminated team into consideration.
They had finally found a good way to increase their points, but that was when Blake who could comfortably solo a team appeared.
'Such bad luck.' Tessie brought out a blade and eliminated herself.
"What the fuck is going on here?!" Michelle Nystrom had a Caucasian complexion, an orange hair, and was also the number 5 in the 2nd year. She was shocked to turn back and see that 3 of her team had committed suicide.
"Sorry, we can't beat him so there is no point in remaining here." The last 2 members of the team brought out daggers and eliminated their selves.
"Fucking morons throwing away the test just because of 1 person!" Michelle was furious by the actions of her teammates.
She turned to the ants climbing the raised earth, before slamming her fist on it.
Fusion spell: Stalagmite eruption!
Multiple thick earth spikes erupted from the sides of the raised earth impaling all of the ants on them. Before a scorching wave of lava erupted from the rock, burning every ant to ashes.
"Come over here let's see what you are made of." Michelle was fuming with anger as she stared at Blake.
'Wow, a fusion spell, but that isn't enough.' Blake smiled before throwing a void dagger at her.
Ding!
Michelle effortlessly deflected the dagger to the side, but once she blinked Blake was no longer there.
'An ambush?!' She quickly sensed something coming from behind her and quickly dodged, only to see that Blake had appeared behind her.
'How did he get there?' Michelle couldn't help but ask when she saw him enshrouded in lightning arcs, but once again he was no longer there.
'The daggers, that's why!' she figured out how Blake was disappearing, and that was when she remembered the dagger she had dodged, but it was already too late.
Zzzg Zzzg Zzzg
On turning back to the dagger, Blake was already in front of her.
"Nice try, but you are no match." Blake raised Michelle up with one hand before stabbing her with ebony and Ivory.
[Of what use if fusion magic when you are not given a chance to use it.] The system shook its head.
"Let's go search for other teams." Blake said as he stepped back and appeared at the void dagger close to his teammates.
'I knew he could solo an entire team, but his presence alone made them lose all hope and commit suicide. This is insane!' Damon was shocked.
Damon was among the few that could solo a team, but with the presence of Michelle, he wasn't too sure about that. Also, he didn't think his presence would have such an effect like that Blake.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Good thing I am on his side.' Beyoni was familiar with the feeling of helplessness when going against Blake, he could only pity for them.
'Damn! Even Serhan can't achieve this.' Sach thought as the short encounter replayed in his head.
As Blake returned the ants finally reached the top of the raised earth but they didn't see any humans.
'Let's see who our next target is.' Blake activated the holographic projection of the leaderboard. He was looking for those who were currently farming points because they would be the easiest targets.
"What do we have here?" Blake saw that team 3 had been eliminated and it seemed that almost every team was currently hunting.
"The usual last-day rush that leads to useless decisions." Sach commented.
"Alright let's make sure it's their last wrong decision." Blake said.
The team moved from one of the hives to another, and with the help of the system's detection range, they spotted another team.
When they were a few meters away Blake received a notification.
[Do you want to activate mind link?]
'No.' Blake closed the notification. 'I wonder who it is.'
When the team got to the specified location, they saw a raised earth platform similar to that of team 10, but the system had informed Blake about the tunnel at the center that led into the forest.
This was an escape tunnel for the team in case something went wrong, and if not for the system no one would have noticed.
"Seems like I don't even have to step in." Blake chuckled.
