Chapter 93: Monster once more (1/2)
Currently, inside the Montem School Gym, the crowd was silent. Everyone was too worried about what was going to happen to the Montem team. In fact, many students had left the hall after witnessing Alex's death.
They simply thought there was no way for the Montem team to have a comeback and it was a waste of time for them to stay any longer. Their hope of reaching the quarter-finals for the first time in years was suddenly lost.
Meanwhile, inside the VSW game, Ashley hadn't given up hope. Not only was Novis relying on her but her whole team was relying on her. She was going to defend the tower as long as possible. Now that her breathing was under control her mind was more relaxed. She could see the right moments of when to go in.
Ashley would attack the Hershel team at just the right time and then dodge back avoiding their strikes, as their blades would miss her face only by a few inches. The Hershel team members were confused, all of sudden it seemed much more difficult to deal with her.
This was agitating them and the Hershal team were rushing things. They were now being much more aggressive with their attacks and instead of waiting for the right opportunity like they had been doing, they were now trying to force one.
Of course, this just caused Hershal to become sloppy and make more mistakes but to the outside viewers, all they could see was Ashley doing an amazing job.
”You can do it Monster!” Someone shouted from the crowd. It was a boy who had a hairband tied around his head with the words ”I”, then a heart shape, ”monster”. He was the person who had started Ashley's fan club after witnessing her match with Eton.
As Ashley continued to fend off the three members, the crowd outside were only getting impressed more. Seeing this Ashley's fan club and the school started chanting together.
”MONSTER!, MONSTER!, MONSTER!” The noise was so loud from the crowd, that the chant could be heard through the VR headsets.
”What is going on outside.” One of the Hershel members asked.
While the Hershal members could hear the noise, Ashley was too focused to notice anything. Right now, her mind was completely focused on one thing, surviving. Even though Hershal were open for an attack right now, she wouldn't go in for the attack. She would only attack to either stop their charge on the tower or when she needed to survive.
At the top lane, Scarlett was currently in a crisis of her own, going up against Frank. She knew that if she was to face him, it was unlikely for her to win. So her best bet was to keep on dodging Frank's attacks, while still attacking the tower.
So far, she was successful. The archer contained a roll skill that would cause her warrior to leap and roll away from the enemy. Right now, Scarlett's attention was super focused as she needed to time the skill perfectly with Franks attack.
If she didn't, she would be hit and injured making the rolling skill far less effective. Frank was getting frustrated, he felt like he was a cat chasing a mouse around.
”Wasn't she meant to be one of the weakest players? Isn't that why they sent her at top?”
