Terra Nova Online : Rise Of The Strongest Player - Chapter 250

Chapter 250: Incomprehensible
‘No way…. He’s bluffing… there’s no way he can perform the lightning strike…. He’s an assassin….’ Cervantez thought, as every bit of gaming logic that he had gathered over both his lifetimes told him that for someone who was not from the warlock class to perform the ‘Lightning Strike’ was impossible.

It was an arcane art, one that needed months of practice to master and not a move that someone could replicate just because they saw it once.

In the crowd, Lady Vivienne, the only master mage present, watched this development with stars sparkling in her eyes, as this was the greatest discovery for a mage like herself.

From the second that Cervantez performed the ‘Lightning Strike’ spell, she was immediately interested in recruiting him as her disciple, however, when Leo showed aptitude for the same and began replicating the move after only watching it once, Vivienne felt her stomach roll with excitement, as even she could not believe that someone of this caliber could exist.

“You’re bluffing…. I’m going to end this now-” Cervantez said, as he grabbed hold of his sword and began charging towards Leo, however, just as he took his first step, he heard the unmistakable rumble of thunder in the sky above.

His feet paused automatically, as he looked towards the sky, shocked to see that it was completely dark and rumbling with lightning as if on the verge of performing a lightning strike.

“Impossible…. This makes no sense…. I saw you perform Tor’s fist punch with my own eyes…. Why can you perform the moves from all classes? Why do you not have restrictions like the rest of us?” Cervantez wondered, as he felt his mind overloading from the confusion.

“Hey guildmaster…. Take this…” Leo said, as he lowered his hand that was pointing towards the sky, as he successfully replicated using the move [ Lost Arts – Lightning Strike ].

*KABOOM*

Almost instantly a bolt of lightning descended from the sky and incinerated Cervantez, as the Guildmaster of the DarkSky guild was left bamboozled by the sequence of events that took place in this fight.

-6,000 CRITICAL HIT!

Immediately reduced to a sizzling, charred corpse, Cervantez’s body dropped dead on the ground below, however, unlike Leo, he was unable to get back up.

For a few moments, even the crowd did not dare cheer for Leo, as they wondered if Cervantez would also get back up just like Leo did, however, as the match referee slowly walked up to Cervantez’s body and confirmed that he was dead, a portion of the crowd erupted in cheers.

*CHEERS*

*BOSS!* *BOSS!* *BOSS!*

Deafening cheers followed by the chants of ‘Boss’ reverberated throughout the crowd, as for them this had become an unforgettable fight for the ages.

Not only did Leo get back up after taking one of the strongest moves that the crowd had ever seen… but he got back up and used the same move to then defeat his opponent, who unlike him, could not get back up from it.

If there was any doubt in the mind of the audience as to who the stronger fighter amongst the two was, it was completely dispelled after this fight, as ‘TheBoss’ emerged from this semi-final bout as the undisputed number one.

“The boss is the GOAT…. He’s the GOAT, he took the hit, but DarkEmperor didn’t. It’s clear as night and day who is better”

“This was a great fight, both contestants are clearly far above the rest of the players, however, the Boss is a cut above even DarkEmperor…. What a guy-”

“Yooo… The Boss really went like…. Whatever you can do… I can do better and BAM, he hit DarkEmperor with his own move to beat him.

So cool…”

The audience went bonkers as the match finished, and the global forums exploded with reactions, as players around the empire were extremely interested in the results of the biggest fight ever.

Those who watched it live conveyed every detail to those who couldn’t make it to the grand arena, vividly describing how the match between the number one and number two players had just concluded, with the number one player securing a convincing win.

Despite being injured for the first time ever, TheBoss showed the world his incredible resilience by getting back up after a massive attack as he dispelled any doubts about his physique and constitution, which many had considered weak since he had never been hit in previous fights.

Before this fight, many believed TheBoss had simply allocated all his free stat points into strength and agility to become as fast and strong as he was.

Haters thought this strategy left his defenses extremely weak and that a single hit would shatter his facade of invincibility.

However, today’s battle dispelled even those doubts with Leo emerging as the most complete player, showcasing no flaws.

If before, he was only seen as a promising talent by the upper echelons of noble society that had the potential of becoming a master someday.

After this fight their perception of him changed, as they realized that he was already beyond the realm of a normal genius and that reaching the strength of a ‘Master’ was but a matter of time for him.

The happiest of course was the East Duke, who felt extremely happy for having roped in this talent at the Royal Gala, as he chuckled loudly and flexed to all his noble friends how he had already roped in TheBoss as an underling.

“The winner of this match, via permanent incapacitation…. THE BOSSS” the announcer said, as the match referee raised Leo’s hand in victory.

Although it wasn’t ideal to win via killing your opponent, which made the magnitude of cheers he received die down, nobody could blame him for being ruthless in this situation, when his opponent had used the same move on him before.

“So I’m facing brother tomorrow at the finals….” Leo murmured to himself, as he realized that him winning against Cervantez meant that he was now all set to face Luke at the finals.
