Chapter 73: Bloodline
In VRG. Those with high ranking gain countless skills, from controlling an element to having special attributes. But this only focused on those who have the talent and skill to fight, survive and unlock it.
But...
Flying is a whole different story. All Players knew only Diamond player or higher could fly.
There are other ways of flying. Like; using a Card, a Skill or a pet. But all these are expensive for low rank players.
Only diamond or higher ranks players could have the Mana required to be able to fly without using a card, skill or pet. These group of players have complete control over their Mana. Which made them the most dangerous forces in VRG.
That was the reason everyone was shock in place seeing Michael could fly. Something only a diamond player could do, even Jennifer who is a gold medal player don't have the Mana to perform this feat.
"Why do you all look surprise?" Michael moved his gaze around everyone, his now red eyes flashing with confusion.
"Impossible! Only diamond player or above could fly!!" Ro was so scared that she commanded her pet to create a distance with Michael. 'Impossible! Impossible! Impossible!' She thought continuously.
Jennifer just stared at him, utterly perplexed. 'How are you doing this Micky? Are you using a skill or card?' She lowered her head to his bracelet.
'Your AI bracelet is Green. That means you are using a skill or card, but that will drain all your Mana. It's nothing compare to Diamond players who could absorb Mana from their surrounding.'
Rahond and the four looked at themselves, all has bright smiles on their faces.
"Guild master. We just got an Ally who is a Diamond player, we can do whatever we want and no one will dare stop us."
Rahond turned to the third elder with a glare. "Are you mad?! Because you are under a Diamond player don't mean you can act as you please. If you cross the line, Supreme will kill you himself."
The guy quickly nodded, a drop of sweat rolling down his face.
Rahond then looked back at Michael. "This might be the reason he could gain the highest score in VRG. Supreme is a freakishly Diamond player."
Ro's brain was moving in overdrive, she already gave up on her plan on killing Michael. Her new plan now was; how to escape from a Diamond player who is even stronger than Jennifer.
That sounds impossible with her strength and pet.
"No!!" She looked up at him.
"You can't be a Diamond player, if you were, you would be holding a higher ranking; Top 7th or 5th!!!!" she yelled.
"I think your brain have shut down dear. What rank is Supreme holding on the leader ranking board?" Jennifer asked forming her throne behind her, she then slowly sat down.
Her word resonated in everyone's head.
"1st place!" They all muttered.
Michael observed them slowly. 'They all think I am a diamond player, and with the look on Ro's face. It shows Diamond players are powerful, Truly powerful.' He thought inwardly, and said out loud.
"Enough chitchats, Let's end this." He pointed his starlight sword at Ro's beetle.
"I hope you can survive my next attac--"
"--wait Supreme!!"
"....?!"
Every stared at Ro in mild confusion.
Clenching her teeth. "I surrender. I will tell you everything you need to know." she said.
Michael scoffed. "Know one thing about me, I never spare those who tried to kill me."
With that said, both him and the clone shot forward, attacking from Above and Below. Ro's face changed dramatically.
"Nixon! [Earth defense.]!!"
The beetle's eyes glowed for a second, moment next a huge impenetrable wall rose from the ground in front of it.
'Her beetle has an Earth bloodline in it?!' Jennifer was stunned.
Pets were classified Into 8 bloodlines, which are: [Light, Darkness, Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Plant, and lastly lightening.]
Light, Darkness, and lightening pets were crazily expensive in AI. So not all players could afford them. But you can buy a bloodline stone from AI's store and fuse it with your pets, giving them higher attributes; either in speed, defense or attack.
But your pet's innate bloodline will be weakened by half. No pet has been able to take more than three bloodlines, not even joker's. But...
...Ro's beetle has the plant bloodline and also the earth.
That was the Reason Jennifer was surprised.
BOOM!!!!
Michael and his clone collided with the Wall defense, shattering it in an instant.
Michael shot forward towards Ro who stood on the beetle's head, slashing his sword downward towards her. While the Clone shot straight towards the right eye of the beetle.
Ro quickly leaped backward dodging the attack. Michael's slash tore open the head of the beetle. At that precise moment the clone plunged its two daggers in its right eye.
SCREECH!!!
The beetle let out an agonizing smirk, as it stumbled backward, shaking its head.
"You will pay for hurting Nixon!"
Ro yelled in rage. She lunged forward armed with a sword. Her eyes filled with bloodlust.
"How dare you?!!"
She smashed her sword downward on Michael who dodged her attack with a sidestep, seeing she missed her target. Ro quickly turned around, she raised her sword to attack again but what met her was a swift kick which connected with her right cheek.
Pffff!
Ro spurted out a mouth of blood falling heavily on the ground.
"Is that all?" Michael asked staring down at her.
"How dare you?!!" She spat out the remaining blood in her mouth.
Nixon felt its master's pain and rage, it let out a piercing screech as its body started glowing with a green light.
"Retreat."
The clone turned into particles upon hearing Michael's command.
Whoosh!
The two daggers flew out of the beetle's eyes towards him. Hovering above his head.
"Say your goodbyes."
"What?" Ro was stunned.
Michael raised his starlight sword pointing its blade downward, the two bloodred daggers rotated. Their blades pointing downward.
Ro turned paled seeing his action.
"DON'T!!!! NO!!!!"
BAM!!
The three blades plunged deep inside its head simultaneously.
SCREECH!!!!
"NOOOO!!!!!!!"
The beetle and Ro let out a painful smirk.
The huge beetle collapsed on the ground Dead, while Ro spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"That is heart-wrenching." Jennifer stated with a small smile.
Rahond and the three elders stood frozen, as the Beetle disintegrated into light particles, disappearing from the hall.
