The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 251 - FFA PvP 4
"Buahaha! Look Eric!"
"What the fuck?! Being chased by monsters?!"
"Ah, that's boring. I think he'll die in the beginning."
"Isn't he great at PvP just because of his level and extremely high status?"
"What was his level when he fought Angie?"
"Eitherway. Waitaminute! You know his status?! Show me!"
The chatter between the spectators inside this VIP room continued. They all agree that Eric is not a very good player.
They know and understand that Eric is above average. But he is still far below the genius players such as Angie, Camila, Miyamoto and others. What's more, Eric's current condition is so full of misfortune that everyone agrees that he will lose.
At the back of the VIP room....
"Dumb elk. What did he want to do by letting all those monsters chase after him?!" Shouted the short red-haired lady, Elin.
"Mrs Elin. Please keep your voice down...."
...***...
...Competition Island...
...East Side...
'This goddamn monster.... If only there were weapons to fight them....' Eric said in his heart while looking at the hundreds of monsters that were chasing him.
He occasionally saw his Stamina Point which had now changed color to red, indicating that it would soon run out.
Although not so severe, but the stamina that is in the negative number will reduce all statistics. Including the speed of movement.
If the negative number of stamina is getting bigger, then the penalty will also be more terrible.
That's why Eric is currently very focused on finding two things.
First, he wanted to find any weapon to kill a mouse. That way, he would immediately level up and put all his points onto Stamina.
Then second, he wanted to immediately find a strategic place to survive. Fighting 100 monsters level 20x higher than yourself is the same as suicide.
After a few minutes of running down the beach with this beautiful white sand....
Finally Eric saw a glimmer of hope.
A shiny object was seen in the distance.
'It's not what I expected, but at least it's very useful!'
Eric immediately sped up his steps towards that shiny object. A simple weapon to catch fish in the sea, Stone Javelin.
'Suraat!'
After pulling the object stuck in the sand of the beach, Eric immediately turned around and ran through the horde of monsters that were in front of him.
His current level of focus was really high. There was not the slightest bit of his mind in vain to deal with this situation.
'No! A sraaassh! Wooossh! Braaaaak!'
Attack after attack by the monsters was avoided by Eric easily. He twisted his body, jumped over the monster ranks, and zigzagged to dodge all those simple attacks.
Despite having a simple attack pattern, a single attack from the monster was enough to send it back to the real world.
But he got through it all.
After breaking through, Eric immediately targeted a giant mouse that he thought was the weakest. Without hesitation....
'Staaaabbb!!!'
Eric thrust the stone spear right at the head of the [Giant Rat].
[You have attacked right at the vital point of the target!]
[You've given 'Critical Hit']
[You've done 683 damage!]
'Still less!' Eric shouted in the day. Immediately, he pulled out the stone spear and moved his back to the giant rat.
'Saturray!'
After rapidly twisting his body, Eric immediately gave three light stabs that were fast enough for a level 1 player size.
'Stab! Stabb!! Stabb!!!'
[You've done 211 damage!]
[You've done 195 damage!]
[You've done 283 damage!]
[You earned 4,860 Experience Points!]
[Your level has risen by 4 levels!]
[Giant Rat has dropped Smelly Fang x2]
Ignoring all of that, Eric immediately put half of his Status Point into Stamina. The rest He divided the three between Strength, Agility and Vitality.
All of this happened in less than a second. It was only natural for Eric to operate his menu window with his eyes and mind.
But still, all that speed has its risks. Eventually, Eric made a slight error in his Point distribution and instead gave 4 points to Dexterity which was only useful for the Production Job.
Without the slightest change in expression on his face, Eric's mind was still very focused.
'Now.... It's time to expel all supporters....'
...***...
'Tap.... Taps.... A.cap....'
The sound of footsteps could be heard passing through the wooden gate of this village.
The settlement, which is inhabited by about 400 humans, seems so peaceful.
"Good morning." Angie said greeting the villagers who were busy farming.
"Ah? An adventurer? Welcome to our village." Reply to the old woman very kindly while wiping the sweat on her forehead.
"Is there a blacksmith in this village?" Angie asked in a very friendly tone while immediately sitting next to the old woman.
"The iron master? Maybe old Jefra. Although not his main job, he used to make us all iron equipment at once make repairs." Reply to the old woman.
Talks continued about where the old man named Jefra's house was. Despite having obtained the information, Angie still sat back and relaxed to accompany the old woman to speak.
After a while, Angie finally decided to help the old woman farm.
Of course, all of this is based on the assumption that this world is a game world.
The chances of Hidden Quest are very high if you try things that are outside the mind of other players. Even if there is no prize, Angie will still do it because of her habit in the game.
Until finally, it started to get dark. All the villagers stopped their work and immediately prepared to rest.
"Young lady, do you want to stay with this old lady? Your journey can continue tomorrow."
Angie, who enjoyed this atmosphere, seemed to forget about the ongoing competition. This caused some Supporters to start hesitating to support him even though hours of support had been opened.
That's why until now, Angie who has a level of 19 still has not received any support. Support is only 1 hour away. After that, all types of support will be closed.
In the audience section....
"What did Angie do?! Why is he even relaxing in that small village?!" Shouted one of the old men annoyed. He still keeps all his money. But it's still not decided who to support after seeing Angie's laid-back figure.
"You're right. Angie seems to be too relaxed this time. Is he as sure as it is to win?"
"I told you to come with me to support Robert. He had reached level 37 by this time."
"You're right. I'll put all my money to Robert soon."
"Just give Robert a new healing potion or armor. He had obtained too many weapons from the other supporters."
"Thank you for the advice. What about Erik?"
"Nobody supports him. He seems to be running from the monsters. Somehow he could be that session, even his wife and his own company did not support him. How unfortunate...."
Everyone started talking about all these things.
But the two women sitting at the back were smiling with satisfaction.
"Mr Eric...."
"Just calm. Seeing his smile, he was confident that he could win. And I trust my own husband very much." Reply Elin while eating the snack.
"But.... Doesn't Master Eric only have a level of 12 at the moment? Looking at his strongest opponent candidate that was even Robert...."
Elin immediately put her index finger on Lisa's lips and whispered.
"Levels are not everything in this world. If you look at Eric's behavior, you'll realize that he has absolutely no intention of defeating even one of the more than 200 monsters that surround him."
At that moment, Lisa realized it.
"Don't say.... Master Erik is endangering himself to train in the middle of the competition?!"
Along with that, the match began to approach the end of the initial round.
Time left to give support....
Only 56 minutes.
