Chapter 757 - Apolaki

Of the national team members in Apolaki's group, only he did not need to audition because he already got the part when his name got popular in the scene. It is actually the highest ranked player in their country that told the recruiters to prioritize him if they wanted a medal in the upcoming Pandelympics.

Needless to say, Apolaki gladly joined the Pandelympics with the consent of his clan. They usually do not trouble themselves with the outside world but gaining an achievement for the country takes precedent which is why their clan will give the country athletes to win medals in the Olympics and such.

This is no different as it is a prestigious event that is paid attention by the world. Since Apolaki is actually one of the few that play Pandemonium in their clan, he is given the opportunity to show his prowess. He is the perfect example of applying the rules of the real world to virtual reality because he has formal training.

He is also one of the best fighters of his generation in his clan which makes him the perfect candidate. His reason for playing Pandemonium is simple and that is a chance to use what he learned in the real world as he cannot simply ask people for sword fights. He would definitely be dragged to a mental institute or jail if he kills someone.

He started with the warrior class and chose human as his race because he wanted to be close to reality as possible. He also chose to become a light armored warrior which many try to avoid as they want to be the tank warriors which is famous for being newbie friendly.

He played the game and discovered how fun it actually was to use the things that he learned in the real world like combat and survival. In this world, he could run wild without caring as he would not be judged if he killed his opponent or beat them to a pulp. He always wanted to fight to the utmost of his abilities, but he still tries to maintain a level headedness albeit not being good at it.

The game, Pandemonium, unleashed Apolaki's limiter as he always tried to hold himself back in fear of hurting other people. This is the reason why he loved playing Pandemonium so much that he would travel distant lands in order to fight strong NPCs that are higher level than him.

"He is a battle junkie." Adrian commented which made all his friends almost choke on their drinks.

"Talk about the pot calling the kettle black." Jade muttered.

"What did you say?" Adrian asked as he did not catch what Jade muttered.

"Nothing! I said that you are right." Jade stated in order to affirm that she was not saying anything else, but she had an anxious look on her face.

"I am actually surprised that he could drive the Twin Blades on the edge like that. He is basically dealing with two rankers at the same time without much difficulty." Marlon stated to shift the topic before Jade buries herself.

"That is definitely the sword style of the clan. So, he is the participant that they chose for this event. He is probably from a branch family and will not recognize me." Adrian's mother thought to herself as she knows of the inner workings of the clan.

Apolaki used his kampilan to deal great damage to the Twin Blades. His sword style is leagues above the two and even they could not help but admit it. The Twin Blades has no choice but to activate their sword auras as they will not be able to turn the tides without it.

"Sword Aura!" The Twin Blades shouted as they got coated in their signature black and white colors once again.

The stats of the two roses as they become twice as fast that even Apolaki is having trouble keeping an eye on. They are now like blurs passing through his eyes as he is now using pure intuition to predict their attacks.

Jiang swung his sword towards Apolaki's left side while Ye swung her sword to his right side. He did not notice that he has been caught by the attack pattern of the opponents. A normal player would have panicked and admitted his death there, but Apolaki is smiling ear to ear.

"As expected, the official event is really nice." Apolaki stated as he let himself be cut by the two swords.

His health suddenly dropped to a third of his maximum health while he distanced himself from the Twin Blades. The Twin Blades thought that it was odd that they did not kill Apolaki seeing that he is only wearing light armor, but they just needed to strike him again to finish the job.

The two would have attacked Apolaki but they saw him smiling widely. He is even chuckling a little bit like a kid that became high on sweets. The two instantly felt that something is very wrong with their opponent.

Their instincts are basically screaming at them to run away but they are too proud to do that. The Twin Blades just looked at each other and nodded to kill Apolaki. They might just be high strung from the battles that they have fought earlier.

"The most terrifying thing about the team captain is when he is smiling and having fun. That was the start of the hell that we all fear. Just thinking about it is giving me shivers." Dupe stated as they have killed off all the players that attacked them albeit being battered and low on health.

"Yeah! It is like a demon from the underworld possessed him or something." The summoner player nodded his head vigorously.

====

"I am really having fun" Apolaki muttered as his eyes look like that of someone possessed.

"Battlefield of the Damned!" Apolaki stated as he held his kris and dropped it to the ground.. The Kris did not get stuck to the ground but instead fused with it as a dark haze started to form in the surroundings.
