Chapter 280 - Day Two
Day 2 was Rudra's off day as Day 3 was going to be the day where the one v one competition would start . Today the only event where Elites were participating was the Prison escape event. SMG and Sir Jhonny were up.
Rudra felt a little bad for sir Jhonny to have to get two events back to back , however knowing that it was sir Jhonny he felt it would turn out to be okay.
Rudra wanted to sit and enjoy the event , but did not want to waste the full day watching Olympics , especially with him needing only some more exp to level up. About 8 hours of intense levelling should to the trick , get him sharp and ready for tomorrow.
Hence after wishing the duo luck , Rudra logged into Omega and decided to go level up. Upon logging in Rudra noticed a huge change inside the game. About 90% of the city was filled with NPC today , there were hardly any players. Most had chosen to stay at home and enjoy the Olympics.
Even the guild hall usually bustling was now devoid of many people , only a few servants and few players could be spotted here and there. The platinum guild Headquarters was basically empty.
Shaking the eery feeling off , Rudra summoned his grey wolf mount , and set off for the level 80-90 levelling grounds.

Martin Tyler : Hello ladies and gentlemen my name is Martin Tyler and with me is Aaron Smith , we will be the commentators for today's VR Olympics.
Aaron Smith : Goodmorning Martin , what a exciting day we have ahead of us , Prison escape followed by aerial acrobatics and Equestrian . Three banger of an events.
Martin Tyler : Well Aaron , personally prison escape is one of my favourite events . The thrill of breaking out of prisons without being caught. A test of strategy , skills , agility and stealth . Gives you chills eh.
Aaron Smith : Absolutely Martin , let us have a look at today's competitors for Prison escape event , firstly we have from Japan the mysterious player SMG. Much like Jhonny English and Kalash he is also a elder of the infamous True Elites guild , someone to lookout for.
Martin Tyler : Speaking of Jhonny English , the blacksmithing medal winner is also a part of this event . Upon being interviewed yesterday he boldly claimed to be a combat player and that blacksmithing was only a hobby , giving a tight slap to all blacksmithing players , he is certainly not to be underestimated.
Aaron Smith : A very interesting guy , Jhonny , will Japan clutch another two medals from this event? Only time will tell.
Martin Tyler : Up next we have from Mexico , José Antonio. What's interesting about him is that he is actually a criminal Aaron an escapee from an actual prison in Mexico . Pardoned after he helped the police tighten the security of the jail. He is someone we can call a professional.
Aaron Smith : He might be a professional Martin, but he absolutely pales in comparison to the notorious American prison breaking champion , nicknamed the Rat , he is infamous for breaking through 4 different prisons , one of them being a maximum security prison on a deserted island called 'Alcatraz' . He is a true champion in escaping from prisons , no doubt about it.
Martin Tyler : There is also the Indian mastermind Brijay Malia taking part in the event. He is a tax evader who has not only escaped from a prison , but a whole Country unnoticed and managed to stay undetected for 13 years before finally being caught and brought back to India. His participation in the event was controversial , however he is gauranteed parole should he win.
Aaron Smith : Well soo many medal contenders Martin , this will be a banger of a event. I'm sure the participants have practiced in many mock jails during the training month , however I can assure the viewers worldwide this prison will be on a completely different scale and a completely different layout than what they would have ever practiced in .
Martin Tyler : Expect the unexpected , is what Cuber officials told us before the event .
Aaron Smith : Expect the unexpected , what a phrase . The countdown begins ladies and gentlemen , who will win this event .... 10 ....9 ..... 5...4.....3.....2.....1 !

( In the waiting area , just before the competition started )
Jhonny English was minding his own buisness , standing with SMG in the waiting area. Jhonny and SMG had a same wavelength amongst them. Both were extremely calm and collected.
SMG's calm came from the fact that he was a trained assasin and a true professional , he had ice flowing in his viens , and things like anxiety did not affect him at all.
Jhonny's calm came from the fact that he did not really have a plan at all , he was walking in knowing what to do next and hence had nothing to fret over what if something went wrong . He was of a mentality of whatever happens will happen anyway.
SMG did not utter a word , over countless experiments he had learnt that while you were teleported into the game with no equipment , whatever you had in your mouth would stay with you when you teleport in . Hence he had a lockpicking wire stuffed under his tongue.
He wanted to tell this secret to English once , however knowing how Jhonny outperformed him in the selections , he was ashamed to tell him .As he felt?It was rude to give advice to seniors.
There were many who knew this secret , and many who did not , and the only one's speaking in the lobby were the one's who were the idiots who did not know.
One such idiot was a contestant from Country G, he was a illegal immigrant who was arrested once in Japan for robbery and aggravated assault. He was imprisoned in a local jail in Japan from where he escaped after bending the electric fence using nothing but his bare hands.
It was a miracle that he survived , however the current burnt the flesh in his hands , and gave him weird burn tattoos all over his body. He looked very terrifying . The man escaped from Japan to China crossing the sea of Japan on only a small wooden raft. From where he eventually made his way back to his hometown over the period of two years. He hated the Japanese to the bone , the country where he suffered soo much.
Coming upto Jhonny and SMG the man said " You japanese are weak , your prisons are weak , I escaped japanese prison after breaking the electric fence with my bare hands , these scars are given after that incident , you represent japan hence I?will eat you raw in this competition , and get redemption for all trauma I suffered.?".
SMG ignored the man , he did not want to waste his breath on such a fool , however Jhonny took the bait , he said " Ohhhhh , how cute , think of yourself as a tough guy ? ".
The man said " Ask your momma how tough I am , she will tell you ".
SMG squinted his eyes at this comment , this man was crossing a line now , this was not normal disrespect , it was to be expected that a fugitive would not have basic decency , but even then this man was testing the patience of sir Jhonny , at this rate a fight might break out between the two.
Jhonny laughed at this comment , it was a angry laugh , the entire lobby was now focused on the conversation now ,things were getting heated.
Jhonny said " well well tough guy , think you can win this ? ".
The man replied "I know I will win it , you rotten japanese sushi ".
Jhonny replied " What happens if you don't , what happens if I win the event? ".
The man said " Tch , have you ever even been to prison? You law abiding citizen , you will never know the value of freedom because you never lost it , I will never loose to a japanese dog like you ".
Jhonny replied " Okay , let's put a bet then , if you loose infront of the world , you will call me daddy , if I loose to you , I will call myself a rotten japnese sushi .... Have the balls to accept or did you forget them at home with Grandma? ".
The man said " Okay , I accept , get ready to loose old man ".
Jhonny smirked and said " Never underestimate a old man ".
The countdown for the event started with this ..... 3....2.....1 ! They were teleported into their respective cells.
