Re-Birth of a Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Chapter 866 - Gathered At The Centre



The wall of fire is coming closer and closer every day. Sam and Arkiv started moving in the different direction.

The elementals and the Devil wyverns are all acting crazily as the wall neared them and all of them are showing their frustrations on the players they came across.

Sam and Arkiv are on the move at a full speed so that they could maintain the distance, but for some reason as the wall got closer, it looked like it is coming faster.

After a week of running, they started seeing the rest of the players. The wyverns and the elementals also increased in number. There are hundreds of them all gathered together like an army running after the players with the wall of fire behind them.

Woman in the black, the last player is also here.

Soon everyone could see the whole ring of fire and the rest of the players other than themselves.

Out of nine players, only five of them are remaining.

Sam, Arkiv, Akhil, Noah and the woman in the black. Arman didn't seem to make it. Arkiv and Noah are the only ones who made it despite not possessing the fire element.

Arkiv wouldn't have made if he didn't meet Sam with the amount of damage his body took. As for Noah, she is just being Noah, she never failed to reach finals in Palace of inheritance except the first one.

Akhil made it because he was not injured from the attack of the Black lady in the past few days and managed to endure this heat.

As they neared the center, everybody got nervous. Because it is inevitable that they clash, but with the wall of fire coming from behind, it would be hard for them to not feel fear and the presence of hundreds of elementals and the devil wyverns is not a joke either.

After some time, the wall of fire suddenly stopped and so did the players. Even the elementals and the Devil Wyverns stopped in their tracks for a moment before slowly moving away from the wall.

The players all looked at each other and they understood that this might be the final stage.

The stage where they had to fight it all out. When they looked at the area completely surrounded by the flames, they noticed that there is no lava puddle, an open lava stream, not even a single rock. It is just a normal patch of land with black sand covering it completely and it is full of hundreds of elementals and wyverns and only five people.

"Let us deal with the common enemies first and we can settle at among ourselves later." Akhil yelled at the top of his lungs so that everyone could hear his words.

Even though they could see each other, it is not easy to talk normally. They are that far away.

A place that could fit hundreds of creatures is not small after all.

Nobody wanted to yell back, but Sam threw a ball of a golden flame which turned into four letters "Deal".

Noah did the same with her vines and even the woman in the black did the same with her black flames.

All of them started moving towards the center where the creatures are lying.

Sam really wished he could use his guns at the moment. That would be of great use when there are so many targets.

  But he has to be satisfied with his bow in his hands.

Sam started shooting them down along with Arkiv.

Everyone is attacking the creatures and even the woman in the black who everyone is wary of didn't disappoint them as she killed them.

They fought like that for a whole day.

Sam used void style with his arrows to finish them off faster than normal and with most kills being his followed by the woman in the black, they finished it by the end of the day.

By now everyone is exhausted.

They had to preserve their energy while fighting these things and taking medicine in between to recover the energy levels, so that they could continue the fight.

After everything is over, they are tense. Because, they knew something bad might happen. Everyone is weak and they had to recover their energy and whoever recovers the energy first is going to in an advantage.

Sam took the heavenly wine out and started drinking it as he looked at the woman in the black carefully.

The rest of the players don't have energy vision, so they don't know, but he could see the energy levels of hers raising rapidly.

She is able to recover quickly because of the surrounding black flames.

The wall of fire itself is giving energy to her. In fact, throughout the whole fight, he was observing her constantly, she took the least medicine in the whole group. The environment is tailor made for her.

He recovered quickly in fear she would do something.

She looked at Sam at this moment and their eyes met. She has a weird flicker in her eyes that is similar to that of those black flames and it almost looked like those eyes are smiling at him.

He immediately yelled at Noah who is nearest to her.

"NOAH, watch out."

At his words, Noah suddenly made a move a few seeds fell on the side and a bunch of vines surrounded her and built a cocoon around her.

The woman in the black threw a ball of black flames at Noah right at this moment.

For some reason the vines managed to put up some kind of protection for a few seconds, which allowed Noah to escape from the cocoon.

She looked at the woman coldly as if she wanted to kill her.

The rest of the players also looked at her in the same way.

After all, everyone here except Sam was attacked by her. It would be weird if they didn't hate her to the guts.

But she is confident for some reason.

Sam felt like something is fishy and he started looking around with the energy vision.

But before he could examine the surroundings, some of the devil wyverns that are supposed to be dead moved all of a sudden and stood around the woman.

Sam took out his bow and started shooting immediately. But the wyverns are magically avoiding all the vital parts, but are still taking the shots. Even when he used the void style, they are trying their best to use their whole bodies and are blocking the arrows even though every arrow is taking a chunk of flesh from their bodies.

No matter who many he shot, he still couldn't reach her.

The rest of the players also started reacting, but to their surprise, the remaining wyverns near the woman which are supposed to be dead are all moving.

Sam is a bit surprised. He tried to so hard to subdue a devil wyvern, but he couldn't. But this woman managed to fool all of them into thinking that she killed them, but in fact she actually subdued them and is now controlling them to use them as meat shields.

While the players are unable to get near her as they are weak and at the same time Wyverns are fighting with suicidal methods, the woman in black ran towards Noah and started fighting with her.

The battle became intense instantly, right when they are all focusing on the wyverns and the woman, one wyvern which was battling with Akhil, got too close to him just when he was about to deal the finishing blow and just held on to him with its limbs, before dragging him towards the fire wall abruptly.

Akhil is trying his best to get rid of that grip, but he failed to do so as the wyvern is using all it can to hold him down and another wyvern followed that to make sure that he didn't escape.

Everyone was dumbfounded for a second. Sam shot an arrow with void style at the wyvern that was holding him, but the one following the first one took the shot to its head and died. Before he could load the second one, the woman in the black surprisingly directed his attention towards Sam and Akhil who is dangerous close to the fire wall, just gave up instantly.

He disappeared from the grip of the wyvern just like that and the wyvern fell into the wall of fire and burned to ashes.

The woman seemed a bit disappointed at the outcome as she looked at the wyvern.

Taking this opportunity, the rest of the players started taking down the wyverns while Sam engaged with the woman directly.

"Nice to finally meet you."

The woman greeted in a casual voice while she dodged Sam's attacks.

Sam didn't reply and tried his best to get a hold of her. She is agile, like a cat, and nimble on her limbs.

He is having a hard time getting a hold of her when she only focused on dodging.

"It is rude to ignore a lady when she greets you, you know that right?"

Sam didn't care about her words and just focused on attacking.

While they are busy the rest of the players didn't know whether to intervene in the battle or not.

When Arkiv is about to shoot the arrow, Sam gestured him against it and told him to stay put.

Sam himself doesn't know what kind of threat she is possessing, but one thing is for sure. Whatever it is, if by any chance the other players got into this fray, they would definitely get into trouble. His instincts are screaming that.
