Chapter 409

Chapter 409: Ending the exam today.

Blake and his team were warped into the middle of a plain field. To both sides and behind were forests, while the area up ahead led to a hill.

“Not the best of locations, but it shouldn’t be too troublesome.” Blake said after scanning the environment.

“How is this not the worse location? Not only are open to ambushes that can come for any part of these forests, but we don’t even have any beasts to farm.” The demoted 2nd-year student complained.

“You won’t have to worry about that, we will deal with them before they can get to us.” Blake said as he handed the team member a void dagger.

“Why are you giving me this?” The demoted 2nd-year student asked.

“You wanted to know the plan right? It is very simple, we...” Blake said pointing at himself, Luciano, and Castiel. “Would eliminate the other teams while you all defend our flag.”

“What about farming points?” The student was so shocked by the so-called plan that he asked a useless question.

.....

Everyone had already witnessed the power of these 3 so it wasn’t as if he was doubting them, it was just that it was too abrupt.

“Eliminating students give more points.” Blake answered the obvious question before turning to his assault team.

“I suggest we go in that direction.” Blake said pointing to the left.

“I thought we would go in different directions to cover more grounds?” Damon asked.

“We are meant to aim for efficiency. With 3 of us not only would it be easier to track the opponents, but we would take them and their flags out in a few seconds.” Blake said.

“Is there a need for the rush?” Luciano asked.

“Yes, I have more important things to do, so I want to end the exam today.” Blake said shocking everyone in the field and even those watching from the school.

Everyone was shocked because they were trying to confirm if Blake was talking about eliminating 120 elite rank beasts or students in one day.

“I like that.” Luciano said with a grin that sent chills down the spines of their 7 members.

“I would return to check on you guys after every 30 minutes, so make sure you guys don’t die before then.”

“Also, make sure to take care of the moles under the ground to avoid unforeseen circumstances.” Blake said as the 3 of them were making their way into the forest.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Moles?” The demoted 2nd-year student said in confusion, but that was when he used the element to find out that more than 30 moles were underground.

“How did he know?” The demoted 2nd-year student asked but that was when he remembered that Blake wasn’t on the same level as them.

“We need to worry about ourselves not them. So 4 of us should take care of the moles, while the other 3 construct a type of fortress around the flag.”

Although a plain field was quite disadvantageous and left them open for attacks. It was still the same for the enemy, they would also have no area to take cover. So to take advantage of this, they would construct a fortress.

...

The trees of the forest were above 90 meters (300 feet) with average trunk width of 10-15 meters and countless leaves that blocked out most of the sunlight.

“With 13 teams scattered all around the map, there should be at least a single team in every terrain.” Blake said as he killed a spider monkey.

“The major problem is locating them in such a large forest.” Damon said as he drove his dagger into the head of another spider monkey.

“I have an idea, I and Damon would speed through the forest. The first to discover anything would send out a signal.” Blake suggested.

“Alright then.” Damon and Luciano agreed.

They both activated lightning reinforcement and began dashing through the forest in search of prey.

Blake made sure to kill everything unfortunate enough to get in his way, and just after 5 minutes of searching the system picked up something.

[We have been looking in the wrong area, their flag is mounted at the top of the trees.] The system reported as it sensed 10 students on a large tree.

“Considering how thick the trees were, it makes more sense that it was placed on top.” Blake said.

[Seems they have also spotted you.] The system said.

With the quietness and darkness of the forest, the lightning arcs from lightning reinforcement had betrayed Blake’s position.

“It wasn’t as if I was trying to hide it.” Blake said as he conjured a flameburst that exploded and alerted Damon and Luciano.

In a matter of seconds, Damon and Luciano appeared beside Blake.

“What is the plan?” Damon asked as they saw plant vines erupting from the ground.

“They want to use the environment to their advantage so we destroy it.” Blake said as dashed forward.

“Is he planning on cutting down the tree?” Damon asked with a raised brow.

While Damon was still asking, Blake slashed Ebony and Ivory at the trunk of the tree.

“Is he trying to cut the tree down?!” Aaron was shocked to the core.

He would have really wanted to scoff at his attempt, but after seeing the crazy things Blake had done he was filled with doubt.

With Ebony and Ivory, Blake was able to cut round the tree in under a second, but because the thickness of the tree trunk was a till larger than the length of the legendary sword it was still standing.

“That was a close.” The members of team 5 let out a sigh of relief, but that was when they saw Luciano who was enshrouded in golden flames and was coming at the tree at an ungodly speed.

“Fuck!”
