Chapter 260: Pre-Exhibition Games Meeting Part 2!

"Aish, cousin Peds! Don't give false hope to others! Such things are no joke. How in the world would she be able to catch up to your million-plus kill count? Even if she extends her influence to the western side of the continent, I doubt that she'd be able to reach you." Weyron said with a mocking smile.

Pedro simply shook his head in response. Then, he glanced at Talia with a smile and said, "I am positive that it is possible. That said… How you do it, I'll leave into your own imagination. After all… I want to take the first place for myself too."

Talia seemed to be fired up in response and said, "I'll figure it out, Expert Bro! You don't need to worry!"

Pedro simply nodded in response. At this moment, Mathew glanced towards Weyron and asked, "On another note… Sorry for the question but, isn't mister Weyron's Guild an independent one from ours and is going to also participate in the upcoming Exhibition games? Won't there be a conflict of some sort between two participating guilds?"

Pedro chuckled in response and said, "It's alright! They don't have much firepower compared to us. In fact… I am worried that they might not even make it to the Inter-Server Playoffs Finals."

At this moment, Weyron interjected with a frown on his face while saying, "That would only happen if we encounter your guild early in earlier rounds! I have already scouted the members of the main guild and all of the core members is no pushover!"

Then, he raised his right hand, gesturing 'five' towards Pedro and Mathew while saying, "Five out of the Nine expected participating members are too strong to the point that we can categorize them as 'One Man Army' Force. There are Five unrivaled players in one group! Even the roles in the Kingdom Defense were not enough… Never mind that! Each of the five players could even represent themselves in the Exhibition Games and even have an 80% chance to win by themselves."

Then, Weyron glanced towards Lony and Roval and said, "The remaining members of your guild are not half bad either. They can effectively carry out supporting roles as given by cousin Peds. Who knows what additional plans cousin even has in mind. That said, It's not like we completely have no chance of competing with the main guild. At worst, we might end up as runner-ups in the Inter-Server Playoffs."

Pedro simply sighed in response and said, "Don't worry, Wey! I will ensure that the gold farming guild would have a chance to fight back… I'll tell you the details later on."

At this moment, the last person invited to this close meeting has arrived. It was no other than Loren, who immediately did her identification with the help of Sabrina as Aldo prepares the hologram projector before their meeting starts.

In front of Pedro's bed—where he was sitting, was a living room area with three sofas arranged around the hologram projector. On one sofa, Pedro's Father, Mr. Jon Armaz, Pedro's mother, Mrs. Caroline Armaz, Pedro's Aunt Veronica, and Weyron were seated together.

On another sofa, the trio—Lony, Roval, and Arvedar, together with Aldo were seated together. While on the sofa right after his bed, it was occupied by Sabrina, Loren, Talia, and Mathew.

As for Pedro, he was the one who's going to lead the meeting so he's going to stand most of the time. Well… He's even able to attend martial arts training this past few days already. Standing up for a few minutes was not a problem.

And as everyone was able to settle down, Pedro started the meeting by glancing at his parents while saying, "First of all, I would like to give you all a short rundown about our overall organization."

At this moment, the hologram projected the logo of their company, the now Armaz Energy Internationals, while Pedro was saying, "The Company that we are representing in this closed competition is none other than the Armaz Energy International that is affiliated with the producers of the VR Boxes. Now… The overall gaming organization that Armaz Energy International had established and is partnered with is called The Armaz Electronics Inc., where both the main guild—The ARES Guild, and a sub guild—The Oran Gutan Guild, are placed under an independent purpose."

"Overall, my mother—Caroline Armaz, and My Aunt—Veronica Santiago, are the bosses of The Armaz Electronics Inc.," Pedro said as he pointed towards his mother and aunt, who nodded with a smile in response. Then, Pedro continued, saying, "Going back… At first, the goals of the two guilds under Armaz Electronics Inc. were different with the ARES Guild being the main guild and the professional guild, while the Oran Gutan Guild being the supporting guild as a gold and materials farming guild. Either Fortunately or Unfortunately… Both guilds had developed in an unprecedented way to the point that the main guild was leagues beyond compare to rival gaming organizations as the support guild become sufficiently competent enough to even stand just right below the main guild. Thus, both guilds had become qualified and were competent enough to participate in Bearth Online Professional Leagues like what the Exhibition Games wanted to promote."

"At the least, the supporting guild can compete amongst the best gaming organizations in the Asian Server, so, we can't rule out their capability to participate in such events. There were also no noticeable effects regarding the performance of the supporting guild in relation to their goals, thus there was really no reason to prohibit the supporting guild from such events." Pedro said as he glanced at Weyron. Then, he added, "Fortunately, the invitation for the exhibition games allowed, at most, three participating teams under the Armaz Energy International. Thus, we have decided to build separate teams with the two different and independent guilds under the Armaz Electronics Inc. You can say that the ARES Guild would be Team A, and the Oran Gutan Guild would be Team B."

At this moment, Pedro paused for a few seconds as he glanced to his parents and nodded to each other before their faces wore a smile. Then, Pedro continued, saying, "Initially, we thought of establishing a temporary team composing of players from both guilds because of my health issues. That said, I thought that it would be more beneficial for Armaz Electronics Inc. as a whole for two different teams to participate. This way, the chances of securing the championship would be higher—considering that there's a lot of possibilities that may happen along with the competition. That is why it was decided that the two separate guilds would build their own competing teams to participate in the said event."

Pedro glanced to Weyron and said, "Moving forward… The Matters concerning the supporting guild were handled and led by my cousin, Weyron. Based on the participation mechanics, he had prepared forty of his best guild members—where twenty would be playing including he himself, while another twenty would act as a substitute in case something unexpected happens. Most of them have well-developed characters at the level of Lony and Roval but have a fighting capability better than you two because of certain factors like skill compositions, weapons, and such. Additionally, they have the famous Asian Archer Queen as their trump card. So, Team B can really be considered one of the top teams participating in this event."

At this moment, the hologram projected the characters of Pedro, Sabrina, Arvee [Arvedar's real name], Mathew, and Talia. Then, an arrow with a freezing arrow tip inside an open box, popped above the five characters as Pedro continued to explain, saying, "Gentle Breeze, Arvedar, Killer Smile, Killer Looks, and my character—Death, are the Five One Man Army Entities that Wey had said earlier. By ourselves, we can compete in the said event and event come up with a great finish. That aside… We have Direction Idiot, Lony, Roval, and Faith as support and backups just in case. So… By playing in one team, we became strong to the point that we can defeat our enemies in one flick of our fingers."

Then, Pedro paused for a moment as his attention shifted to the arrow with a freezing tip. He said, "This is one of my successfully newly crafted weapons in the game. The Arrow of Eternal Coldness! And I plan to give it to Team B to give them another card in the disposal."

"What do you mean 'another' trump card? It would be our only trump card, cousin Peds!" Weyron said whilst forcing out a smile. "The Asian Archer Queen won't even be able to land a single hit on Arvedar, Gentle Breeze, or much more you! How can she be a trump card for us? Anyway… What's the arrow's effect for you to see it as an equalizer between the two teams?"

Pedro simply smirked in response and said, "Freeze everything within a Fifty Thousand radius upon impact to the ground! Cool right?"

Everyone could not help but draw a sharp breath except Sabrina who already knew about the arrow and Pedro's parents who were not much interested in game-related matters. On the other hand, Weyron could not help but to force out a smile and say, "More like it's cold! Cousin Peds… Isn't that a cheat? Hahaha. Won't we get banned if we used it?"
