Chapter 272: Closing in !

Rudra cleared level 65 , and showed absolutely no signs of slowing down , completing level 66,67,68 all with 20 seconds or more to spare. The world started to uproar now , the further he climbed unhinged the stronger became the anticipation of gold from him. 

Parallax's level 70 achievement that seemed untouchable uptill now , was now seen as a fragile record that might be broken any minute. The world was watching with bated breaths , the allies of Japan watched it in happiness and anticipation , while the European union of whom Ireland was a part of , wanted nothing more than Rudra to fail at level 69 , because they did not wish to loose the gold medal position. 

Apart from them , Mithun Ambani was a absolutely livid about the situation , Japan winning double medals on the first day with one being a gold , spelled trouble for him. His country's representative already failed at level 56 , and hence the hopes of getting a medal in that event were shattered there and then . 

When the connection that both Neatwit and Shakuni , were not only the representatives of the same nation , but from the same guild was made , a lot of limelight was brought on the True Elites guild. The tales of them defeating a seven first rate guild alliance and other legendary feats became a topic of widespread discussion.

This effect was only to increase with time , as more and more elites won medals. This was also a part of Rudra' s plan , he wanted to bring glory to his guild , soo that it would act as a detterance against those who plotted against his guild. 

------- 

Derek Ray : Only two monsters left on floor 69 and fourty seconds to go , will he be able to make it Lee? 

Lee Dixon : Absolutely yes Derek , this level is as good as clear. This is astonishing , Japan maybe closing in on a gold with Shakuni. 

Derek Ray: It's Japan's lucky day , eh , Lee , two medals on the very first event , what's more interesting is that both members are also from the same guild called the True Elites , of whom Rudra is the guild master. 

Lee Dixon : Well the rumor mill tells that True Elites is a guild of wonders , Shakuni built the guild as a gathering place of only the best of the best talents in the world. Only the true experts have the right to be called an elite. With the backing of the trillionare Ethan Grey , it's quite notorious in Hazelgroove kingdom , that guild , it has a history of seemingly impossible victories. 

Derek Ray : Well adding to that list should be Shakuni's gold medal today, if he wins one , because nobody thought anyone can even come close to Prallax , yet this guy might just do it. 

Lee Dixon : Well about that Derek , yes he can absolutely do it , as only one monster stands between him and the next level with over 25 seconds left. 

Rudra killed the last monster in the next 7 seconds , clearing floor 69 with 18 seconds to spare. 

Moving with his routine , he squatted down and downed a advanced stamina potion. Waiting for the clock to his 5 seconds. Refreshing his mind untill then. 

Rudra had no idea as to what level would be enough to get the gold medal , he had to try go as far as he could and hope for the best outcome. In his previous life level 69 was where Parallax was defeated. Hence if it was the same this time around then he should have safely won gold medal. But as nothing was sure , he would not take any chances.

Rudra moved onto level 70 , and the world watched in anticipation , should he be able to clear this level , then he would become the first gold medal winner in the history of the event. 

-------- 

Derek Ray : This is it ladies and gentlemen , If Rudra clears this level he wins gold for Japan , if he falls here Parallax keeps his crown 

Lee Dixon : what a nail biting first event eh Derek , I'm not even Japanese and my heart's beating out of my chest , I'm soo excited. 

Derek Ray : Absolutely Lee , VR Olympics is a very thrilling and entertaining event , I'm sure millions across the globe feel the same way as you do. 

Lee Dixon : Well what exemplary fighting style by Rudra , you have to commend his sword skills Derek , he is the best dual wielder of swords iv seen in my gaming career. What precise control , what accurate movements. 

Derek Ray : Well players like him and Parallax cannot be judged by common sense , even amongst all these world class players who competed here today , these two stand a class apart. They are especially phenomenal .

Lee Dixon : ooh , what a close call , should Shakuni have been hit by that paw swipe he would have been in big trouble , excellent agility shown by the player. 

Derek Ray : But that retreat has got him in the middle of three fierce beasts Lee , he is In trouble now . 

Lee Dixon : well it sure seems like that Lee , however I don't see a drop of fear in the face of Shakuni , who is smiling at the beats as if telling them to bring it. 

Derek Ray : Well he was called the demon of death valley once by players on the forum. That look on his face right now is definitely what a demon would have. 

Rudra unleashed a skill from elven sword for the first time ever , 10,000 swords was used. And countless swords manifested themselves in the air. 

10,000 swords attacked the three beasts that were trying to circle on Rudra , it was a brutal attack as not a single part of their body was left unpenetrated by the small swords , they died on the spot! 

Only two more beasts left , with over 50 seconds left , Rudra was closing in on a sure victory!
