Chapter 638 God level
" Shakuni ... This is where you fall ! ". The bloodmerchant general said as he looked at his colleagues and nodded in agreement about executing their hidden card.
Shakuni had been evading the others like a cat for over 7 minutes now and the merchants felt frustrated at this cowardly behaviour displayed by shakuni.
The four of them were yet to be even grazed by his sword and it looked as if he had a hard time defending even his own self , as he had to rely on his pets to keep him alive.
The bone dragon and Furball on the other hand had recieved bits of damage as their HP became a yellowish green color instead of the lush green that it once was .
If this went on for much longer Rudra would be forced to recall them both , as he could not allow them to die .
The merchants had realised that Rudra's combat potential was peak tier 3 at most and he was nothing to write home about as against their big moves he would be powerless and weak.
Little did they know that this was exactly the bait that Rudra was setting , as when the four of them created seperation to launch their big moves , it was at that moment that Rudra knew he had them biting the bait.
This was the hook .....
The scythe user buried his scythe in the ground as he channeled his mana to use the move
[ shadow trap ]
As Rudra's legs suddenly sunk into the ground below and he was seemingly immobilized.
" NOW ! " , The scythe user screamed as right on his queue , the spear user held up his weapon javelin style and aimed it at the bone dragon's skull
[ Javelin repel! ]
BOOM! , The spear created a sonic boom as it broke past the sound barrier and collided with the bone dragon's skull as it recieved critical damage and was repelled back about 50 meters.
Right alongside the Javelin repel , one of the two sword generals attacked Furball as he used
[ Water Slash ] , to land a terrifying water attack that neutralized Furballs defenses and threatened to hit it clean.
The moment Furballs fire defenses crumpled , Rudra instantly recalled her to protect her from the attacks damage , however he himself was in risk of being hit by the fourth generals attack as the final sword user used the move [ One Sword Slash ]
As he uni directionally sword slashed towards Rudra , threatening to pierce his body into half.
Rudra had to bend his right arm to a 90° angle to block the move , however while he was successful in blocking the attack it also meant that he was now tier up in defending while being completely immobile to all incoming attacks.
" NOW ... DO IT , KILL SHAKUNI ". The sword user that was keeping Rudra busy surveyed the situation as the bone dragon was still far away while Furball was no longer in the picture and with Rudra being stuck inside the shadow trap , this was the perfect chance to end his life.
The scythe user unleashed his ultimate move at this moment as he used the same move as Rudra did to decapitate Scar-face , as he used [ Death Slash ]
While the Javelin user who no longer had his weapon , looked towards the heavens and summoned 100,000 javelins made of pure mana as he pointed them all towards shakuni and let all hell break loose , as they showered towards his body from all directions.
The last sword user also used his peak move as he pointed the sword towards the sky and a terrifying bolt of lightning struck it
With that sparkling sword full of thunder , he then used the move [ Thunder slash ] , as Rudra now faced three tier 4 moves at the same time while having 0 mobility or space to maneuver with his only good hand stuck in holding off the opponent.
It was a well thought out strategy by the merchants and it was an efficient use of their numbers advantage.
In their hearts the merchants thought at this moment that it was over , that shakuni could never evade or counter this and that his doom was only moments away now.
Even if shakuni did miraculously survive , his condition will only deteriorate further and sooner of later they would be able to suppress him . However , the merchants forgot about one key part in their planning.
They forgot the part where shakuni was the greatest mastermind and strategist in the history of mankind and how he could not be outsmarted by a bunch of meat headed generals such as themselves.
Already planning 2 steps infront of the opposition shakuni was ontop of his game as he had a big smile plastered to his face.
' Time to end this .... ' he thought as he prepared to show the world a glimpse of his true strength one last time....

( Meanwhile on the forums )
' Oh my god what has happened to Shakuni? Why is he fighting like a four year old girl? '.
' I don't even know what to expect anymore , i think the trick to beat shakuni is to let him beat you first. Because whenever the cards are stacked against him , he seems to overcome , it's better to let him stack the cards against you first '.
' He's facing four generals this time though , it's a very tough situation , i don't think he can make it .... I know I've been wrong about shakuni many times , so i won't claim to be sure . But i feel 70% sure that he will die '.
' Shakuni is god ... Shakuni is goat , if you don't think so ... You're a piece of turd '.
' I wonder how he gets out of this one '.
' Guys forget about the war ... Have you heard about the upcoming system announcement? There are rumors floating that we will have another system update soon '.
' We are having a new system update? Since when? '.
' There is no official word from the cuber corp guys , don't beleive such false rumors '.

( The cuber corp )
There was a complex atmosphere inside the cuber headquarters as the cuber corps worst fears were about to be realised.
" I have been contacted by the universal HQ , we must move to phase 3 now .... The day for the integration has been decided . We have been given 2 years and 7months time to get our species ready ". Gaia said expressionlessly
" WHATTT ? BUT WE ATLEAST NEED 5 MORE YEARS ... 2 AND A HALF IS TOO LESS ". The leader of the cuber corp slammed his fists on the table in frustration.
Although the world beleived Omega to be a game developed by the mysterious cuber corporation , it was not actually the case.
There was a reason behind the cuber corporation being untouchable and being able to create technology far beyond the means of the human species.
And unlike what humans thought to beleive , humanity was not actually the only race in the universe.
There were a lot of secrets and a lot of mysteries in the universe and now the humans were under the radar.
The day of Integration was moving closer and the date has been set.
Humanity needed to grow strong and fast. The universe was an unforgiving and cold place and it was a dog eat dog world. The game was much more than just a second world and a way to make money and earn fame.
The VR Olympics , the in-game main storyline and the characters and races inside them. Everything was there for a purpose and the time to reveal them was inching closer every second.
The leader of the cuber corp looked at the screen in his hand , inside it were the faces of the most prominent players of dark and light faction from each continent.
The list was a comprehensive analysis done by Gaia and a total of 48,000 parameters were scored out of 10 to select the best performing players of the billions of humans across the world.
Since each continent was isolated from each other , with its own kingdoms and its own main storyline there were a lot of disparities and judging everyone by the same standard was not possible.
However one name stood at the very top of the list by a huge margin at that , with an unbelievable average score of 9.7/10 and that player was ' Shakuni Of The Elites '
The special note that Gaia made at the end noted this about Shakuni : " There is no better player in the world in developing his guild as well as Shakuni.
The ideal leader , and a man who can carry the weight of the world on his shoulders ... Prime candidate to be made the first pillar of humanity '.
Reading the list the leader of cuber corp sighed as he said " Gaia .... If the list remains unchanged even after 6 months . Start grooming them to become the pillars of humanity ".
In a mechanical voice Gaia responded " Noted , corporal ".
