Chapter 706 Avalanche!
Author: M_W Cancer
Proofreader: M_W Miss Fierce
Similar to what Leo had expected long before this moment, at this time, a big avalanche could indeed be seen gushing forth from all corners of the map and is moving towards the center. As time continues to pass, this big avalanche slowly becomes bigger and bigger, eventually turning into a huge avalanche. Not only that, along with this huge avalanche are debris from the previous places that have been destroyed by the barrier moving inwardly.
It was exactly as what Leo had thought before. As more and more piles of snow continue to stack higher and higher, it has eventually come to the point of time where the avalanche had become huge in size.
However, what Leo deliberately didn't mention to Elmont and Osborne in case of causing even more panic to the both of them was that this avalanche is actually expected to continue accumulating more piles of snow and increase its size for the duration it takes to travel thirty kilometers. That is because the barrier would only stop after it covered thirty square kilometers of area. By the time the avalanche would finally stop accumulating more piles of snow, it would already turn beyond imagination.
Unfortunately, that would still not be the end of all of this...
When the time comes that the barrier would stop moving after covering thirty square kilometers, the avalanche would then gush forth for one last time before it would finally come to an eventful end.
In that moment, the avalanche is expected to cover more or less twenty square kilometers more above the thirty square kilometers that the barrier had already covered, hence leaving only fifteen square kilometers of safe area for not only the remaining twenty-three players but also for the Vine-arm Chimpanzees that has appeared not so long ago.
Evidently, the avalanche is the scheme of Princess Tifa and Princess Tila to force the Vine-arm Chimpanzees to hunt for players that Leo was talking about previously. After all, the avalanche doesn't only endanger the lives of the players but also the Vine-arm Chimpanzees. Hence, they will naturally retreat to a much safer area, consequently allowing them to find players and eliminate them.
That also proves that going to the center of the map is indeed the safest place to go. Not only is it going to be the last place that the Vine-arm Chimpanzees would search, but it would also be the place where the avalanche can't hopefully reach.
Watching such a huge avalanche coming towards the center of the map, the crowd can't help feeling horrified and scared altogether. As a matter of fact, they are now standing from their seat, clenching their hands into a fist, sweating profusely on their forehead, while at the same continuously stomping their feet on the ground, as if wanting to prompt the remaining twenty-three players to run as quickly as possible or otherwise they will die from the avalanche behind them.
If the crowd is already feeling such intense emotions despite the fact that they are not one of the participating players in the Survival Games, let alone the actual participants, specifically the remaining twenty-three players. One could not even begin to imagine what all the players are currently feeling right now, including the players themselves, as they also can't describe what they are currently feeling. But if there is an emotion they can describe for certain, that is no doubt the feeling of absolutely not wanting to die!
Seeing that Elmont and Osborne had already understood what he meant, Leo asked, "So, are we really still going to stand here and continue with our chit-chat? Because if yes, then I'm sorry, but I will have to excuse myself first,"
Despite asking a question, Leo didn't wait for Elmont and Osborne to reply as he quickly turned around and bolted away straight towards the direction of the center of the map.
"Damn you, brother Loki! Wait up for me!" Elmont hastily chased after Leo, obviously not wanting to be left behind and get caught up by the incoming avalanche.
"There is no way that I would still wait for you! In our case right now, it is basically every man for himself!" Leo outright rejected Elmont.
"Why didn't you tell us about this any sooner than now?!" Osborne questioned in total disbelief. In his opinion, Guild Leader Loki should have informed them a long time ago if it was something as life-threatening as this. Because only by doing that could they have even more time to escape. Being informed at this time, he can't even say for certain anymore whether they would really be safe or not.
"Tell that to those twenty Vine-arm Chimpanzees that went to attack us not so long ago! If it wasn't for them suddenly interrupting me from my speech earlier, then all of you would have long learned about this," Leo rebutted.
"You..." Both Elmont and Osborne were completely rendered speechless by Leo's response. How dare we blame those Vine-arm Chimpanzees?! If it wasn't because he was taking a lot of time explaining about why there is going to be an avalanche instead of just going straight to the point and tell them that there would be an avalanche, then things wouldn't have turned out like this!
"Okay, okay, let's stop blaming one another," Leo expressed his desire of not wanting to continue with this argument. Though he still added, "I will admit that this is my fault, but you both should also be partly blamed for this since the two of you didn't analyze thoroughly my explanation before, especially you, brother Elmont. From all the previous Emerald Elven Battle Competitions in the past, and in addition to that, you are also a member of the Evergreen royal family, so how come you don't have any clue about this?"
"Ah, okay... Since I will be eliminated anyway, I might as well bring the two of you together with me, right? If I fall, then all of us will naturally have to fall together!" Elmont said with a devious look on his face. He put his hand forward, intending to cast a Magic spell to hinder Leo's path forward.
But before Elmont could even cast a Magic spell, he felt his body suddenly being lifted up.
"Hey, hey, hey, Osborne! What do you think you are doing to me?!" Elmont exclaimed loudly while staring daggers at Osborne.
"Just shut up! Otherwise, I will consider throwing you to the back!" Osborne said with a serious threatening tone in his voice. After saying that, he put Elmont on his wide shoulder as he quickly caught up with Leo.
"I..." Elmont felt wronged. He was only trying to express his irritation at Leo, yet in the end, he annoyed Osborne instead.
"Finally, some peace. Come, let's continue moving... Ahhh! Why are you also doing this to me?!" Leo expressed his disbelief as his body was also got lifted up by Osborne and soon after put onto his other shoulder.
"Both of you are so slow, so just ride on my shoulder and shut up!" Osborne exclaimed.
"Okay...." Leo immediately decided to keep his mouth shut and didn't mutter even a single word anymore.
