MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master-Novel

Chapter 261 - Time Flies

After the Lunch ,Rudra took the crew out for levelling , surprisingly everyone liked this event and were extremely enthusiastic about it.

Rudra divided the levelling grounds between groups of 10 people and gave them the target to clear that area of all monsters by 4 pm.

For those who were not participating in the VR Olympics training , they had untill 6 pm for levelling , after which their training day would officially end.

Rudra and Karna banded together in a two man duo to go for leveling , while Neatwit went in solo. The rest banded in 10 man groups as Rudra instructed and went in their own assigned slots.

Levelling together , Rudra barely increased his exp by 20% , however Karna had levelled up. He finally reached level 60 and the threshold for challenging the tier promotion quest.

Rudra grinned at his friend , after him he was the backbone of the guild , and his strength increase was paramount.

Rudra took Karna out for levelling because he wanted to understand the mindset that Karna had currently , wether he was healthy and okay mentally or not.

He understood the will and determination behind Karna as they went on a monster kill spree , and felt Karna ' s passion to proove himself in the VR Olympics .

Rudra was relieved , seems like his decision to let Karna lead a group match that did not include him paid off. The capture the flag event was one of the hardest events in the VR Olympics , and Karna was challenging it head on.

After levelling for a while , those who were in the national team got a summon to the training ground sharp at 4 pm , and they accepted to get teleported .

Inside the training arena , now only the best of the best players were left. The moment Rudra entered that place , he went from guild leader mode to arrogant number one player mode. Giving a cold and unapproachable vibe as he went on with his personal training.

Rudra needed no guidance , his plan was simple , learn new skills and challenge the beat the clock challenge tower again and again , to asses his fighting style.

Occasionally he would do PVP , where the goal was not to win but to make mistakes and learn , however never did he go all out. Never did he show half his cards. Even so , never did he loose a PvP matchup.

Rudra requested for good sword skills , and was immediately offered a array of the best sword skills the government could procure.

He chose the skills

[ illusion sword ] : Gives the opponent the illusion of a sword strike laced with killing intent. It is a feint , that can help a fighter go right through a enemy's guard with a real attack.

[ Supression art ] : A five combo move , that is aimed to basically disarm a opponent of his base weapon . The first three strikes throws them offbalance , the fourth makes the defender loose the grip on their weapon and the fifth disarms the opponent.

[ Three point stab ] : A deadly three point sword skill that gives three armour piercing stabs to opponent in a very short duration , it is a good technique to deal with tanks as the three strikes hit the lungs heart and neck , any one part if left exposed would cause damage.

[ Twin blade hurricane ] : A dual wielder skill , can be used to attack or defend , a very fast and intricate movement of two swords that can destroy a opponents defense , or help create a 360 degree strong defense of the attacker.

Restriction : dual wielding only

[ Twin blade cross Slash ] : A dual wielder skill , can deal a devastating critical strike to the torso of the opponent. The strike deals two deep blows , it can be defended against with a shield , however without a proper defense this move can finish off a opponent.

These were the skills that the government procured for Rudra. Each one of them was versatile that could be used in a variety of situations. And each gave Rudra a wide variety of moves at his disposal in a tricky battle.

Apart from these skills , Ethan Grey paid top dollar to procure two skills that Rudra really wanted .

Rudra knew these skills from his past life , one was a rare skill that he played with all his past life. The one that had gotten him through countless tough situations. His ace in the whole

[ Claymore ] : A devastating sword skill made to reverse the flow of a loosing battle. Launch a flurry of sword moves with 200% normal power for a short while.

Cooldown time : 3 minutes

And the second one was a skill used by one of the top players in his past life.

[ Overhead Slash ] : A three combo move that ends with a overheard Slash made to split one's skull , gauranteed to cause critical damage if the hit connects. It is a skill made to finish a opponent.

Effects : high chance to cause stun .

Although there were a plathora of sword skills available in Omega , most were reserved for the swordsman class. Other classes could not get skills as good as the actual swordsman class .

Rudra wanted one more sword skill badly , which was flaming sword skill , however both Ethan and the government could not procure that skill . He had issued a guild notice for it , however the chances of someone procuring it were slim.

However compared to before Rudra had a lot of new skills at his disposal , and if he played his cards right then this was a very versatile skill set that was perfect for a player like him .

Now all he had to do was to thoroughly ingrain these skills into his fighting style and learn how to bring out the best of them .

Hence the beat the clock monster tower became his practice ground. He made a lot of mistakes , got killed often , however his goal was to understand every move and their weaknesses , his mind worked in a way that he first thought about how to beat his opponent , then thought from the mindset of the opponent and think about how to beat that very technique. Then he switched back to his own POV and think about how to outthink the enemy in his own game.

He was two steps ahead of every enemy , in every fight. He was in control of every move , he was manipulating his opponents every action without them knowing it.. He was the mastermind . He was Shakuni!
