Chapter 176 - Kingdom Guards (2)
Xu Nuan frowned when she saw that the enemies had gathered around them, cornering them into a circle. Other than her and Aurora, the other two teammate's lifeline keeps decreasing. In this game, they not only have to finish the challenge but the team with most of the members alive will get extra points as well.
From extra points, they can buy advanced tools and weapons. And considering their condition and how many advanced weapons the other team has, they not only have to win this challenge but have to keep them alive.
Her future is at stake, how can she let them mess up the game?
She gritted her teeth and commanded, " Everyone Halt! Zero, your character's specialty is swordsmanship. Change your weapon to the sword and take the charge of Miri." she asked one of her teammates to deal with one of the members of the enemy team.
Zero was surprised when he heard Xu Nuan's feminine voice through the headset. The odd-arrogant guy turned out to be a girl?
In the history of Xin Lin university, no girl has ever participated in the Esports competition. Even if they have filled the forms, no girl was able to make it to the final selection. For final selection, they have an online selection match from which they eliminate the weaker ones and only pick the best players.
The final match is between best of bests. That's why it was even more surprising that this girl managed to make it into the final match even when she is not from the university. There are two types of students who participate in the match - it's either students of Xin Lin university or strangers who signed up from social media.
However, the students of Xin Lin university not only have higher intellect but skills as well. That's why most of the participants always come from Xin Lin university itself and the students get the full scholarship for their term in the prize.
In the blue team, other than Xu Nuan, all three are students of the university. That's why Aurora was so popular among the audience, he is tagged as the college-prince, a perfect-boyfriend material.
Zero knitted his brows getting commands from this guy-looking girl and glanced at Aurora in confusion. He was their leader and has led all of their games till now, how can he listen to a girl who came out of nowhere?
" Are you moving? Do you want to die that much?" Xu Nuan shouted as she fought one of the enemies who tried to attack her. There was a frown on her forehead and her brows knitted as she focused on the game.
Her fingers were moving in an instinct and with her eyes on the screen, she kept on slashing at the enemies who were coming her way.
Aurora saw the way Xu Nuan's character dealt with the enemies in the arena and pursed his lips. " Follow her instruction," he said, making the other members look his way.
Xu Nuan was too busy to look at him as she was solely handling the game on her shoulders at this moment. However, when Zero followed her instructions and took charge of the backside, she allotted 'Alter' to handle the left side. And she and Aurora took charge of the front and the right front.
The audience was shocked upon finding out that the guy who surprised them with his quirky-flashy fashion, turned out to be a girl. They could see the game from the large screen in front, which left their mouths open in shock.
She not only managed to get into the final match but she was leading the game while Aurora, the college prince was aiding her. The leader of the Red team frowned when the positions of members of the blue team suddenly changed and they started attacking frivolously.
One by one, all three members of his team were killed and only he left alive. He couldn't help but grit his teeth seeing how she flipped over the game in an instant.
' I shouldn't have underestimated this girl.' He wondered when he lost the game to the blue team.
Xingren knitted her brows as she squinted to see the girl on the stage who was dressed up as a boy. Why does her voice sound so familiar? Is it..someone I know? She wondered, not understanding who this mysterious girl was.
Due to Xu Nuan's instructions, Blue team managed to hold onto the Red team for the next two matches as well.
[ Congratulations!! Blue team has won the first round. Now the second match will be held between the participants of the blue team, it will be an individual match to decide the winner of Kingdom Guards.] The host announced, followed by loud applause.
" Moon!! Moon!! Moon!!" Girls were shouting Xu Nuan's name. Her pseudonym in the game was Moon. The part of her name, Yue means Moon. That's why she settled on this name for her in the game.
" OMG!! Blue team won this round. I can't believe it. They were barely surviving through the first two matches in the first round, and they won? It's all because of this new girl...Moon. How cool she is!!" her friend sitting beside Xingren said excitedly.
Xingren nodded staring at the petite stature of the girl, which looked oddly familiar to her. The girl was indeed amazing, even as a girl, she also felt her charm.
" It's a pity that she is not in our college. Otherwise, she would have been the most popular girl among boys in our college." Her friend commented nonchalantly which made Xingren frown. At this moment, she is known as the campus belle of Xin Lin, not only the first-year students but the senior year students come looking for her as well.
Although she doesn't give them any heed to them, the thought of someone else taking her position, bothered her. She sighed in relief that this girl was not part of Xin Lin, otherwise things would have been different.
The second match started, in which the blue team members were playing individually, against each other. The one who will be sustained till the last will emerge as a winner. The prize money of the game was a large sum, enough to cover the expenses of a student in the university.
That's why Xu Nuan was aiming to win this game.
'Only last round Xu Nuan, You can do it.' she repeated this in her mind and stretched her hands.
Aurora watched the girl who was clad in all black and was even hiding her face with a mask and cap. He couldn't forget the way she led them in the match, her voice was gentle and soft but her tone was cold and ordering.
He has played with many male players but the level of confidence and competency he has seen in her today has outreached all the players he has seen yet. He is good at individual games but group ones are quite tricky, but she managed it pretty well and led everyone towards victory.
'It's a pity that she isn't a student of Xin Lin.' He wondered.
