[VRMMO] Dead One

"Damn. The event didn't even lasted that long but somebody already finished?! How?!"

"From the screens I only saw ClownFrog going on the rampage, but he really killed everybody before the border zone appeared? Was that possible."

"Shit! Keep your voice down! He is coming this way!"

ClownFrog alongside Cave and Ampi was walking in the colosseum and aiming to leave it and head to the city.

"…."

"A lot of people are talking about you boss…." – said nervous Cave.

"Well… I'm not blaming them…. Still. I won't brag about this or anything, since if any other monster player instead of me be there."

"For fuck sake. We somehow ended up on the map that only consisted of the weakest players."

"There was not even single strong one there."

"…."

"Wait… Now that you mentioned it, even we were also killing players quiet way too easy… Like no real effort easy." – said Cave.

"…. Yea… Even our weakest monsters were killing them… Oh my god. We really did ended up spawning on the map full of noobs, didn't we?" – said Ampi.

"Yea! This was way too easy! I mean I'm monster and everything and can control the army of the monsters, but when I raided that Ocelot city, I did encounter some strong players and NPCs. They were definitely below my level and everything, but they were fighting back at least and were killing undeads!" – said annoyed ClownFrog.

"But these fuckers were not doing that or anything. They did teamed up but still were getting killed way too easy."

"Not only that, they all came running towards ME!"

"I had an army of fuking monsters, but they though that if they teamed up against me, they would win. Jezus! Not only noobs but also total idiots as well!"

"I'm not bragging or anything, since what point there would be if all I did was to kill bunch of defenseless noobs in the competition who straight up ran at me and got themselves instantly killed."

"For fuck sake. If they were at least good or anything I would brag, but this? This wasn't anything and it was straight up stupid."

"IT WAS NOTHING MORE THAN WASTE OF FUKING TIME IF THEY WERE PLANNING ON PUTTING US ON THAT KIND OF MAP!"

[Meanwhile – Control space inside the game.]

"…."

"Say. Did we intentionally put ClownFrog in there?" – said obese man.

"Nope…. It was all random…. And by the look of things, he ended up on the map with the weakest players…... Huh…. I mean I kind of feel sorry for the weakest players who had to deal with THAT guy, but that worked in our favor in the end since he did eliminated a lot of the weakest players…. Is it good or bad thing?" – said the lady in the suit.

"Hm… I think it was a good thing?" – said CEO.

"I mean. He is one of the "Monsters", so it wouldn't be good for him to get rid of some of the stronger players."

"Not only that, he did our job for us and got rid of the weakest players…... But he does seem quite annoyed though." – said the CEO while monitoring ClownFrog.

"I guess he wasn't happy how fast and easy things ended."

"Yea… I can kind of see that as nothing more than waste of time for him." – said the obese man.

"But at least the other maps are doing well."

[Meanwhile Map number 2.]

"Get his ass!"

The two giant warriors rushed at man, but then one of them was shot, blowed up and riddled with holes before dropping dead.

"…"

"Bro?" – said the heavy armored player after noticing his comrade death.

"Hey." – said GreyHunt.

"?!"

The man turned towards the GreyHunt only to get head shoted and instantly killed by the demonic bullet that blew up the man head.

"…"

(Hm…. At first, I thought this would be straight up easy…. But more of a bit annoying enemies are starting to pop up.) – though GreyHunt.

(Did all the noobs got killed or anything?)

(Not only that, I'm barely finding anybody now.)

(I guess all people around here got killed.)

"[Map]."

A map window opened right in front of GreyHunt.

"…."

(I'm in the top right corner of the map by the look of things.)

(The border zone did not appeared yet, so I have-)

["Hey! Hey! Hey! Everybody!"]

"!"

["This is your announcer Ande."]

["More than 30 minutes had passed after the game had started."]

["And now its time for the boarder zone to finally make its appearance!"]

["Please everybody take a look on your map."]

"!"

GreyHunt looked at his map and saw a red zone slowly appearing all around the map as well as appearance of the giant blue circle on the map.

["The red zone you see on the map is the border zone. While you are inside that zone, you will continuously take damage and the longer you stay inside one, the damage received will end up increasing in the process."]

["The blue circle thing you see on the map is where the zone will move. The circle itself will move around as soon as the red cycle touches it once. But the blue circle will move only 2 times after its appearance. So, take note."]

["So, without further ado. Good luck!"]

"…."

(The border zone is here, huh?)

(It doesn't look like its moving fast or anything like that… But during big fights a lot of time will definitely pass and it may straight up fucking people over.)

(Anyway…. The blue circle is quite close to me by the look of things and its quite big so there is still a lot of space…. But people will move since they would be worried and everything.)

(And then chaos would appear again.)

(I wonder if anybody…... Wait… What would boss do in that situation? I mean, won't his army of monsters take entire space?)

{{ClownFrog ended his map before the border zone appeared because it was full of noobs and they were way too easy to kill and now he is angrily observing the tournament.}}

(Anyway, its better if I move now than later.)

(People may try to get earlier to the blue circle in order to set up trap or something.)

GreyHunt began running straight towards the blue circle on the map, but he wasn't the only one doing that. Many of the players were also moving straight towards the blue circle.

But this also ended up making the players encounter each other again and starting fights.

Honestly speaking, the fight between the players may lead to the map being finished before the final blue circle shows up.

However, the GreyHunt himself wasn't focused on fighting right now.

He saw some players along the way, but he instead ignored them and run past them.

(There is no point in fighting people now. Its better to get ahead of them before any of them set up stupid trap that would slow me down a bit later on.)

(Anyway, I'm getting quite close already to this thing.)

(….)

(And…. I'm here.) – though GreyHunt after landing on the one of the tall trees branches.

(Now what should I do?)

(Should I wait for some players to come?)

(….)

(Nah its better if I hunt down the remaining noobs first. I want to have some strong people only joining the second part of the tournament since it will make things way more interesting and it won't be as boring as this part.)

(So I should….?)

GreyHunt heard something and quickly looked to his left while aiming with his gun…... But then he saw something interesting.

He wasn't the one attacked, but instead it was a man on the ground that was surrounded by the group of players.

"Common." – said the man with horns.

"Do you really think you can beat me only because you have numbers…... Disappointment."

(….)

(Huh… This is interesting.)

(I don't know the guy…. But it seems the players are targeting him.)

(Is he demonoid…... No. He isn't demonoid…. But then what horns are these?)

(Is he a nonstandard race?)

(A mysterious man with unknown race that is also targeted by huge group of players….)

(This should be interesting.)

"…."

"GET HIM!"

The mages began firing projectiles at the man and successfully hitting him and blowing him up alongside the area around him.

"Did we get him?!" – said the excited mage.

"…" – everybody looked at the mage.

"What?"

"Why the fuck you said- "

Before the heavy armored player could finish talking, the man that was supposals get blowed up emerged from the cloud of dust and rushed at the player.

The player noticed the man and quickly raised his shield to block, but-

"[Fire Knock]!"

The man fist engulfed in flames before punching the man right in the shield and even piercing it and hitting the man.

(Piercing effect?!) – though heavy armored player.

The man fallen on the ground lifeless as the other players watched in horror.

However, two players, one with a sword and one with the scythe rushed at the gauntlet wearing player and tried attacking him.

But the man raised his hands and easily blocked the two blades with ease.

The man just smiled at them before then overpowering them in strength and pushing them away.

The scythe wielding player who got knocked away quickly stopped himself before looking in front of him and then seeing a foot coming his way that was engulfed in fire.

The man ended up getting kicked right in the face and instantly killed in the process.

The other players tried attacking the man, both with skills and with weapons, but the gauntlet wearing player was blocking and countering attacks with his fist as well as skills like the [Sweeping Move] or the [Armor Body].

"Fuck! Just blast him everybody with your strongest stuff already!" – shouted the dark elf archer.

The mages as well as other long range users fired their strongest attacks at the man and in the responses the man only just raised his guard up and waited for the projectiles to hit him.

Again, the man was blowed up alongside the entire area, but the players were not relaxed at all.

If anything, they were ready for him to come out of that smoke at any moment.

"…."

(He didn't dodged it this time as well. Instead, he wanted to block it? Is he that confided in his defense?) – though GreyHunt who was still observing the fight from safe space.

The players were still looking at the cloud of dust, already preparing for the man reemergent.

"…."

'Sigh'

"Really? I though it would at least hurt me properly or something."

The cloud of dust disappeared, revealing the man unscratched alongside his arms having changed appearance and became more metallic.

(!)

(Wait! He has [Metal Mage] class just like Lil? Oh, this is getting quite interesting.) – though GreyHunt.

"Man. I though you would be some challenge or something, since you were working so well together, but I guess in the end you were just weaklings." – said the man while getting rid of the dust on his clothes.

"I guess I wasted more than enough time on you."

"[Flame Step]."

The ground beneath man feets suddenly blowed up and the man was send flying.

"Eh?" – said the archer as soon as he realized the horned man was right in front of him.

"[Burning Fight]."

The man first and feets were engulfed in flames before he straight up punched in the stomach and then punching the man in the ground and hitting him against the ground, crushing the archer head against the ground and the man fist.

The players tried doing anything, but the man went on the total rampage, easily killing the players that tried to kill him left and right and reducing their numbers at alarming rate.

Before long, the last player was easily killed, straight up ending the entire fight between the man the group of players in quiet short span of time.

It was a once sided wipe out that the players couldn't even hope to stand up to.

"…."

"Huh. Interesting." – said GreyHunt while revealing himself to the man.

"?"

"Are you with them?"

(I didn't even noticed him approaching me.)

(This guy isn't an nobody like them.)

"Nope. I'm not."

"I was honestly just observing the fight right now."

"…."

GreyHunt took out his gun and aimed it at the man, putting the man on the high alert.

"…"

"Forget it." – said GreyHunt before lowering his gun.

"You got to admit it, the first part of the event is boring, isn't it?"

"…."

"I don't know what game you are playing. But I got to agree with you." – replied the man before lowering his guard in response.

"Too many weak players are in here and they are dying way too fast and they just keep swarming like some sort of flies nonstop as well."

"I get crushing players left and right, but common."

"See? You get it." – said GreyHunt.

"So how about this? Let's just quickly crush those insects first and leave only strong players behind."

"?"

"What are you planning?"

"…"

"Well, this is the first ever tournament and everything and many people want to show off their strength and everything, but not against those trashes since they are not worth it."

"Its better to show off against somebody who is at least bit strong or something."

"Not only that: "Entertainment". People want to have fun while watching this entire thing happening."

"So…. I want to fight you right now. But right now, it's not the right time. Don't you agree?"

"…."

"Hm… Agree. Let's just deal with the weakest players first so the next part of the tournament wouldn't be boring."

"Glad that we came to the understanding."

"Anyway, what is your name?"

"Huh… You don't know?" – said the horned man.

"Nope. If I did, I wouldn't be asking, would I?"

"…"

"Long."

"I'm Long. The guild master of the Champion Scales."

"And I'm GreyHunt."

"Vice master of the Purple Hyena guild."

"Well then, mister GreyHunt."

"Shall we start hunting?"

"Oh, you bet your ass we will."

"And we honestly don't need to go anywhere."

"These idiots are coming our way."

GreyHunt alongside Long were surrounded huge group of players.

"Well then. Shall we try and end this event as soon as possible?" – said GreyHunt while getting ready.

"Sounds good."

"But don't die on me since I'm already getting quite interesting in you."

"You too don't disappoint me, you hear?"

"Heh. Don't worry I won't."

"…"

"GET THEM!" – shouted the player as the horde of the players rushed at Long and GreyHunt.
