( Meanwhile Leo )

The third game that Leo had chosen to play was ‘Monster Battle’.

In this game, Leo was assigned 3 random monsters from within the world of Terra Nova and he got to control them and their abilities in a simulated battle against the opponent’s monsters.

This was a player vs player game, in which the winning side won all the wagered levels while the losing side lost all theirs.

It was a pretty straight forward game, with the maximum possible payout being only 2x of wagered bet.

“Hmm…. Interesting…. It seems like all my assigned monsters are of the same exact level, ( Level – 100 ) by default. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

One of them has 3 moves…. While the two others have four” Leo murmured to himself as he took a look at his assigned monsters and their move-sets

“So apart from having different move sets, all of them also have independent HP bars, MP bars and Stamina bars.

To launch an attack a set amount of Stamina and MP is used, with every move having a different toll on the monsters.

So to win, one has to strategize not only what type of monster to play against what type of opponent, but also manage their stamina and MP bars during the battle” Leo muttered to himself as he thoroughly read the rules of the game to understand all the hidden nuances within it.

“Alright, I think I understand all the rules…. Time to start the fight and receive my monsters–”

Eventually, once he felt prepared to start a fight, Leo clicked the ‘Match Fight’ option on his screen, after which he was matched up against another player who had accepted his wager of 5 levels.

For this fight, the three monsters that he was given were :-

Leo quickly assessed his options, reading in-depth about the monsters that he could call upon and their abilities.

[ System Notification :- Please select your first monster ]

Prompted by the system notification, Leo chose [ Frostfang ] to lead the battle, hoping to use its freezing abilities to gain an early advantage.

Soon a battlefield materialized before him, with his opponent having already selected his monster, as his Frost Wolf, found itself facing off against a fierce, bird-like creature crackling with electrical energy.

‘Thunderhawk’ was apparently what the creature was called, and on his home operation screen, he could track the opponents HP bar too.

“Alright, Frostfang, let’s show them what we can do!” Leo commanded, feeling the adrenaline of the impending battle, as he truly felt like a Pokemon master at this moment.

*Growwlll*

Encouraged by his words, Frostfang growled in response, its icy breath misting the air, as it tried to intimidate the opposing bird.

*Crackle* *Crackle*

Unfazed by the poor intimidation attempt the Thunderhawk spread its wings in response, electricity dancing along its feathers, which crackled in the air.

[ System Notification:- The battle starts in 5…4….3….2…..1….. Go! ]

A system notification set the countdown for the battle, with both monsters being free to fight once the countdown hit 0 seconds.

“Thunderhawk, use Lightning Strike!” Leo’s opponent shouted, as soon as the countdown hit 0, to which his beast responded with a loud screech as if took off into the air.

*Screech*

After reaching a certain elevation, the bird launched a powerful bolt of lightning toward Frostfang, to which Leo reacted quickly.

“Frostfang, Glacial Shield!” Leo said, as an ice barrier formed around Frostfang just in time, absorbing the brunt of the lightning attack.

*Crunch*

The clash of elements sent sparks and shards of ice flying, setting the tone for an intense battle.

“Hahaha, this is interesting…. Wohooo!” Leo muttered, as although it was not a fighting comment, he felt like he was having a lot of fun by playing in this event, and that it was a great stress buster.

“Frostfang, there is no point in being stationary, it just makes you an easy target, start jogging slowly in circles so that the bird has problem trying to aim for you–” Leo said, as he took the battle very casually and asked his monster to start circling the arena in slow paced jogs.

“Thunderhawk use Swooping Headbutt” the opponent said, as his bird came flying down towards Leo’s wolf in a streamline motion.

“FrostFang use Ice Breath” Leo countered, as just as the bird came in swooping for a head-butt, it’s feathers got frozen by Frostfangs icy breath instead, immobilizing the poor beast.

“Hohoho…. Let’s finish this, use Frostbite” Leo commanded, as the wolf-like monster went in for the kill, chomping on the opponents neck with the skill Frostbite to go for the critical hit.

[ System Notification :- Thunderhawk is unable to continue its battle…. FrostFang wins ]
