Chapter 36 - The Lightning Empress

Endless walked back and threw the fang that he got to the pile of fangs he collected.

"Now, we can start and disrupt the leaderboard."

LEADERBOARD

Top 1 - Endless - 25,471 points

Top 2 - Blitz - 7,452 points

Top 3 - Styx - 6,477 points

Suddenly the leaderboard triggered all the players around the maze.

"W...What the hell! I thought he was dead!"

"H...He played as like fools!, Let's go hunt him down!"

As the notice appeared, players started rushing to the location, but before they can get close, traps started triggering one by one, killing dozens of people along the way and chipping a tremendous HP in dozens of players.

"Damn it! he placed traps all over the p...."

Before the player can finish what he said, a sword stabbed him.

"Shadow Fox!, don't let anyone survive!"

A mist then appeared in front of the players.

"I...It's an ambush!"

All players who are present died with just a single attack.

"That was easy."

"It's a good thing that we farmed enough traps to use in the final event."

"Now, let's collect the loots and meet Endless."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Endless just stood there, waiting for players to appear.

But before the players can appear, Endless surroundings became darker little by little, and he felt that his stats just dropped.

*A trap? or a card effect?*

A woman then appeared in front of him

"Lightning Empress?"

"So you knew who I am."

"I watch you fight earlier."

"I see, I really like to talk to you more, but this card effect will only last for 30 minutes, I'm sorry that I need to use this to my advantage, but I need to be sure to defeat someone like you."

"Wow, Is that a compliment?"

"Sure, you can take it as one."

Lightning Empress took a stance and pointed her bow towards Endless, She then used [Wind Hymn] and [Hymn of the Forrest]

"Are you in a hurry? why don't we enjoy the company of each other for a little"

Lighting Empress then released [Arrow Shower]

Endless tried to use his skill, but he discovered that he can't use any.

"Sorry about that, I forgot to tell you that it also has a silence effect."

"Seriously?, you forgot to say the important parts, you care to explain it more to me so I can think of something?"

Without any skills, his only choice is to dash away to avoid the attack range, Lightning Empress then released [Triple Strike] to block Endless's path of escape.

Without a way to escape the attack, Endless lowered his stance and tried to block the attack, he hit the first arrow directly but because of the force he almost flew backward losing his balance, he then successfully deflected the second arrow with all of his strength while the 3rd arrow grazed him, eating away 10% of his HP.

*Damn it! my body is out of sync!, this debuff is killing me!*

"I'm surprised that you've only taken minor damage with the debuff."

"I'm surprised too, do you want to NOT try it again?"

"Sorry, but I will finish you off this moment."

Lightning Empress then used [Zeus Honor], Lightning Empress's whole body started emitting thunder, he then followed it up with [Glory of Zeus], 5 arrows made out of lightning appeared circling her.

"This is the first time that I will use this skill."

"Are you sure that you want to use that one for me? I fell special."

Lightning Empress then grabbed one of the arrows and charged her shot, she later released [Blast Shot] Sending an arrow with emitting lightning towards Endless.

Endless then stabbed one of the stone tiles of the maze and flipped it in front of him to block the attack, but before the arrow hit the tiles he noticed that Lightning Empress is already in his left side ready to unleash the remaining 4 of the lightning arrow [The Gods Judgement].

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Red Jade and Shadow Fox arrived on Endless's location and saw 5 players surrounding a black vortex.

"Are you sure that this is Endless's location?" Shadow Fox asked.

"You can see the crown, idiot; I think they trapped Endless inside."

Shadow Fox scanned the vicinity and saw a player holding a black orb emitting black smoke.

"That orb is the one creating that vortex."

"We need to destroy that orb fast!"

"Are you insane? 2 vs. 5?"

"Do you still have any traps?"

"I only have 2 wind mines and 3 exploding mines."

"First, scan for any traps that they placed"

Shadow Fox used [Detect]

"They surrounded the place with exploding mines and a couple of tesla coils on each side of the vortex."

"They're seriously guarding the whole place."

"So, what's the plan?"

"The first plan is to get rid of the traps."

Red Jade then summoned her guardian [Tulcan]

"Master Red Jade, do you need any help?"

"Care to remove all the traps?"

Tulcan used [God's Perception] to search for the location of the traps.

He then used [Ice Kings Bow] Summoning a bow made out of ice, he followed it up with [Water Dance] where he unleashed 5 homing arrows hitting the traps and freezing them.

"Some of the traps are disabled now, Tulcan can use Ice prison to trap one of the players while we attack the remaining 2 before Tulcan can face one of them, I think the one can't move while holding that thing, Tulcan."

Tulcan then used [Ice Prison] Trapping one of the players.

"Someones attacking! protect me!"

Three players act instantly dashing towards Red Jade and the others, they clashed weapons immediately, but the battle suddenly stopped because of a rumbling sound.

"What is that? it's coming inside of the vortex!" Shadow Fox said.

The orb that the player has been holding begins to crack on its self, and after a second, it turns into black sand, the vortex then released a dark mist and suddenly exploded.

The whole place was covered in dark smoke.

"What the hell happened!" One of the players shouted, asking his teammates.

But before turning to his teammates, a sword appeared in the dark mist, he luckily blocked it but he was staggered because of the surprise attack, then a dagger appeared on his back and stabbed him followed it up with regular attacks killing him.

"Do you think they defeated Endless?" Shadow Fox asked.

"I don't know."
