Chapter 761 - End Of The Second Event

The second event ended without any mishaps or accidents. There is a scene of Dupe being shy and crying when she got awarded the MVP award. The audience cheered her on because of her reaction as they thought that she had low self-esteem, but she has a different reason for crying.

"I would actually gain a bonus!" Dupe thought to herself as she knew that those that get the MVP title will get a bonus reward when she comes back to her home country.

The audience also felt it when the players all shook hands after the second event. The eyes of those that are hungry for victory and want revenge for their disgrace. The heavy atmosphere got broken by the announcer as he interviewed the still crying Dupe.

"How does it feel gaining the MVP title? Did you know that 50% of the votes from becoming MVP came from the people in the audience? How do you feel having been chosen by the masses?" The announcer asked.

"I am just thankful that all of you voted for me as half is still a big deciding factor in determining that position. I will not disappoint all you as I will show more of my traps in the upcoming events as you guys have yet to see everything." Dupe answered as she has already stopped crying as soon as the announcer asked her.

The audience cheered on, but the player Apolaki could see that someone is glaring at him and those are the members of the Chinese National team. Hou Yiwei and his two team members managed to catch up to Apolaki who has their flag and the Russian national team flag, but they did not get their flag back.

Hou Yiwei even became scared at one point because he almost got killed by Apolaki. Their battle ended up happening in the jungle area and even Sveto and Anastacia arrived to retrieve their own flag. The battle became chaotic as three teams battled it out in a dense jungle.

In the end, even Sveto could not kill Apolaki even if he had the help of Anastacia. They would have been able to if the Chinese and Russian national teams worked together but their prides did not allow such thing to happen. It is then that the two teams learned of a terrifying fact about Apolaki.

Apolaki is actually a player that learns while battling as he became even more difficult to target as the battle progressed. Someone born with that ability is the fear of every combat-based game. A player that grows while in battle means that they will ultimately win in the end if they do not defeat him immediately.

In the end, Hou Yiwei almost got killed by Apolaki and is only spared because time ran out. Apolaki's kampilan is about to slice Hou Yiwei's neck when they got ejected out of the game pod. Even Sveto is looking at Apolaki with the ambition of defeating him as he never thought that someone not affiliated with a god of war has that fierce combat capabilities.

Others were lighthearted in their interaction as Creepysoo and Xinthri spoke with each other without problems. In fact, some might say that they are friends due to the way that they are interacting, but Ain (South Korea's team captain) is a little peeved about the interaction of the two as one of them has beaten him before.

"You are really like a wall that is difficult to defeat. You are almost like my big brother." Creepysoo stated as he had a light conversation with Xinthri. The two have a newfound respect for one another as their battle did not have a winner despite them giving their utmost concentration.

"Oh! You mean your big brother is also in the game? I would love to have a battle with him if I get the chance." Xinthri replied.

"I did not mean my actual big brother related to blood but my big brother in game. I am pretty sure that you know of him as he is so famous now. He goes by the name Equinox." Creepysoo stated.

Xinthri got stunned as he did not expect that Creepysoo, and Equinox are that close to actually all themselves as brothers. Even the other people overhearing their conversation are interested in what they heard because it is about the demon player that is the talk of the year.

"So, if we battle…who do you think would win? It is fine to answer truthfully as I am not the type of person that is easily offended by that kind of stuff." Xinthri stated as he has the temperament of a pro athlete.

"I am not sure but if you are to battle him now with the things that I observed then you would lose hands down." Creepysoo answered honestly which really did hurt a bit of Xinthri's pride while some eavesdroppers almost burst out laughing.

"Well, I am sure that I will put up a good fight since I have yet to show all my cards in the fight that we had." Xinthri stated as he wanted to recover some of his pride.

"I do not know if that is true because I fought with him before this event and I got floored. I have even experienced my second awakening, but I was defeated. I am honestly traumatized with that battle, and I will never challenge him again unless I have a hundred percent chance at victory." Creepysoo answered honestly as he is a very honest person which is probably the reason why the undead love him.

"Don't you mean if you have a chance of winning not a hundred percent chance?" Xinthri asked as he thought that he might have heard wrong since English is not their original language and some errors in grammar are acceptable.

"Nope. Even if Big Brother Equinox has a one percent chance of winning, he could turn that chance into ten and then fifty until you realized that your face is on the floor with all your undead demolished." Creepysoo stated as he walked away since Ain already called him.

The people who heard that conversation is dumbfounded with what they learned as they judged that it might have been exaggerated. Although, the seed of doubt and fear has been planted on their hearts about the fierceness of Equinox.
