In between the biomes of Forest and Grasslands....

After the fight with Katsumi Zero was now walking out of the forest biome into the grassland's biome. Walking for a good 15 minutes with no action. zero finally heard sounds of battle coming from over the hill he was walking up to.

Zero finally arrived on top of the hill seeing the beautiful sight of endless grasslands but also the five players that was causing chaos destroying the beautiful landscape. Zero recognize two out of the five players and he dislike them both equally.

One was known as the player [Bloodbath], A male minotaur [Dark Knight] class player, The other was the player known as [Sleepy] a human male [Battlemaster] class player wearing monk style robes with a wooden polearm that has a gord on the tip. but zero knew that was a lie. sleepy is a hidden class player a class known as [Drunken Master].

Only reason zero knew this was because sleepy and legend are good friends. who zero had the unfortunate pleasure of sparring against a few times.

"Why is that guy here, fuck this is going to be annoying." Zero says as he [analyze] the other three players that was helping out bloodbath fight sleepy. the first one zero analyze was the player [Zhao] a Human male [Hydromancer] class player who were they support wearing mage gear. Next was the player [Fern] a female elf [Electromancer] player that was using lightning spells from range wearing mage gear. the last player was known as [Anarchy] a technoid race with an epic class call [Ripper]. Zero never seen or heard of a class like that. The player looked human, but Zero can see the lines in his skin and a shine that was way too bright to be normal skin wearing what look like he was some biker outfit. even with the four vs one sleepy was someone they were going to need maybe a few more to actually make this a challenge for him

Sleepy yawns at the four players as he dodges attacks with ease like flowing water. zero couldn't help but feel sorry for the four players sleepy isn't a normal player. and plus, his annoying fighting style it's something zero would avoid at all costs.

"HEY! Anarchy! are you going to help or not!? you lazy fuck!" Bloodbath yells out as he was attacking sleepy who was dodging his attacks with ease doing a counterattack that put the big guy on his ass.

"I am so glad I spawned near a village that had alcohol. or this shit here would not have been worth the time." Sleepy says as he grabs his gord and drinks it. after he was done, he fell over like he passed out. The four player looks at the battlemaster like he was an idiot.

"Is he drunk!? fuck this guy Zhao let's get him while he is down." Fern says looking at sleepy in disbelief as she randomly pulls out nun chucks that was powered with electricity. Zhao created some sort of water like whip as both mages rushes in going for attacks.

just as the attacks was about to hit sleepy, he dodges them and use their attacks against each other as he misdirects fern attack to let it hit Zhao as electricity hits water making Zhao get zap like a cartoon zero could possibly see Zhao's bones like he had x-ray vision as the guy screamed like a little girl. Sleepy managed to bunch the two up and hit them both with attacks that deleted they health defeating the two mages with ease.

"Useless idiots!" Bloodbath yells out. standing back up readying himself to attack. Zero can respect the tenacity that the dark knight was showing.

"That's pretty ru-" before sleepy could finish talking Anarchy finally enter the fray attacking the battlemaster with a devastating punch that sleepy was able to dodge but barely as the attack left a crater. with surprising speed Anarchy was already chasing after sleepy. throwing attacks one after another as sleepy was not only dodging now but blocking as well. Zero recognize one of the attacks anarchy use it was a monk skill known as [One fist, A thousand Punches].

"Okay this is getting interesting, the technoid player just prove that he is a threat." Zero says as he watches the fight unfold as sleepy was taking the fight serious now as he was using his battlemaster skills to counter the monk skills anarchy was dishing out. Then zero eyes widen as one of Anarchy arms shifted transforming into a chainsaw mid attack almost cutting sleepy in half as the battlemaster disengaged the Cyborg who smiles at sleepy with sharp metal teeth like a shark.

"Almost got you there battlemaster. Skilled but way more skillful than any average battlemaster." Anarchy says in a predator like tone in his voice.

"Sheesh bro! just chill. I wasn't trying to get into it like that. you guys ambushed me!" Sleepy says with a nervous drunk look as he drinks from his gord again. as a huge shadow blocks the sun out from his back.

"You knew what you were signing up for your drunken fool. now die!" Bloodbath yells out swinging down at the battlemaster as sleepy dodge with ease spitting out the liquor in his gord at bloodbath.

"Ew! the fuck bruh!?" Bloodbath yells out with disgust as his eyes widen at a spark of fire was heading straight for him as a large fire was seen burning the dark knight with such agony that his screams shook the very air. Bloodbath was defeated falling back as a burnt corpse.

"Wow... that was unexpected thought you would've dealt with him a little different. color me surprise battlemaster. looks like it's just you and me shall we finish where we left off?" Anarchy asked towards sleepy who sighs as he took one final swig of his gord with a burp.

"Let's get this over with." Sleepy says as they both get into a fighting stance. zero watches with tension in the air both disappear from sight with extreme speeds that only those with high agility stats could be able to reach as they clash midair as a burst of force explodes out as the two warriors exchange blow for blow. to normal eyes it was probably too fast to see but zero was able to see each attack.

Anarchy was the aggressor. using his explosive power to gain the advantage. Sleepy started using his hidden class [Drunken Master] class skills dodging in weird ways while also attacking back with his staff. Sleepy manage to get out of range from anarchy but with surprise Anarchy other arm shifted transforming into saws he could shoot out with destructive power. crushing, cutting, even blowing up on contact. The battle rages on as the once evergreen beautiful green lands were now a ruined war-torn landscape after 10 mins of nonstop fighting sleepy finally ran out of SP.

Using that as an advantage Anarchy manage to score a crippling attack on Sleepy who was down on his back looking up at the sky breathing hard.

"See this ...huff.... huff! is what I didn't want bro! but you had to be a powerful hidden master." sleepy says coughing up blood. Anarchy walks up to sleepy with a few bruises here and there as sleepy was only able to take his HP down to a good 45% left.

"You put up a good fight battlemaster! one that I didn't expect at all. I shall award you with a quick death." Anarchy says with a bloodthirsty grin

"Uh wait maybe you should think about-" Before sleepy could finish his sentence. Anarchy fist came down with an explosive punch. as blood was everywhere showering Anarchy as he smiles showing sharp metal teeth enjoying the bloody mess he made.

"Shit sleepy. even though I dislike you, doesn't mean you deserve such a death. fucking psycho! I guess this next part will make this easy for me." Zero says as he begins to walk out into view as he gets closer anarchy turns towards him as they both look at each other.

"Hm, A Ranger? This should be easy. don't you dare run Prey." Anarchy says towards Zero

"Is this really how you talk to people? you really are a psycho." Zero says as anarchy just grin as he launches one of his saws that explodes at zero who stood there not moving.

"At least this prey listens." Anarchy says as he started to turn around and head to the next area in till he felt a chill as he instantly turns back around with a confused "Huh!?" face showing an unscathed zero who took one step forward and instantly appeared behind the cyborg who couldn't move as he was affected with the Fear debuff.

Zero Sheathed his sword as Anarchy was wondering when he unsheathed it. but that didn't matter as his world went upside down as he was looking at his body and now realize he's been decapitated.

("But How!?") Anarchy thought as he watches Zero's form walk away like what he just did was the easiest thing ever as the darkness claim Anarchy as he would never figure out how he was defeated so easily but he will remember that Ranger's name.

"ZERO!!!!" Anarchy yells out

In the farming biome......

Silver Viper was running through the corn fields as she was being chase by a few players. Spells was flung at her as she dodges by jumping up into the air casting a few ice magic spells back at her attackers that was screaming in agony.

Giant ice spikes were shown across the corn field showing players inside the large ice spikes that look like a row of majestic ice trees.

Silver lands back on the ground but then she notices something coming straight at her she dodges out of the way as the thing came crashing down. it was apollo standing up in full height as his eye glow bright as silver viper smack her lips.

"Finally caught up to you viper! I mean you are fast! like a cheetah girl." Apollo says

"Im starting to believe you are a stalker apollo, how did you find me?" Silver viper asked

"I mean look around girl, you do leave a cold slippery brick trail." apollo says with a smirk showing all the ice spells that caused havoc and leading back to her as viper rolls her eyes.

"Well whatever! enough talk let's finish what we started Ice queen!" apollo yells out as his eye's glows and body with raw mana.

Silver viper prepares herself for a fight. Another figure come crashing down in front of the two as the dust blew away. it shows the player [Spice] looking all bloody and beaten to a pulp. Apollo face was in shock seeing his friend like that as he rushes to his side.

"Spicy boy! what or who did this to you pal?" Apollo question as spice was able to sit up a bit and point towards the direction he came from.

"Her! Ack!" Spice yells out in a bloody cough pointing towards the direction he came from as he fell back limp his HP reaching zero.

"Ah, so it was you two that was causing all that noise I was hearing. Hello Viper, and Apollo" A female voice spoken up from out of the cornfield the player [Desire] bloody figure was shown coming into light dragging a male lion beastkin half her size by the back of his collar with one hand as she threw his corpse like a trash bag landing with a heavy thud.

"Desire!" Both apollo and viper yells out her name as she smiles at them

"Them two put up a decent fight. but it got boring, so I decided to end it when I heard you two playing cat and mouse." desire says looking at both Viper and apollo like they were playthings on a playground.

"Cruel and domineering like always." Viper says before anybody could say anything else Desire head snap to her left looking at something as her smile widens even more.

Silver viper saw what desire was looking at, rather who she was looking at.

It was the player [Legendary Swordsman]. walking towards the trio as he arrives in front of them. Viper notices his attire was looking pretty bad with burnt marks and dirt stains.

"Did I interrupt some sort of love triangle here?" Legend question with a light chuckle all three just looked at him with disgust well two of them did at least. apollo had a goofy grin on his face but then it changes into a cough when the other two looked at him with a death glare.

"Okay, okay. Enough of this! Glad for you to join us Samurai boy! but it matters not how many of you superstars shows up! I will decide here and now that I am "The World Strongest!" Apollo yells out as his body glows with raw mana with his sword coated in the power becoming larger and larger as he prepares a swing like a baseball player using his skill [Mana Blade].

The other three players dodge the attack as a full melee unfold as Legendary swordsman locked on Desire as they both exchange attacks as viper was throwing range attacks at Apollo. who decided to attack viper up close she was using her ice spells to stop his movements. she tries to go for openings, but it was difficult with both legendary swordsman and desire cutting in attacking her as well.

Legendary swordsman was a whirlwind of blades as he easily cut through her spells like they were butter. Silver tried to counter the samurai, but the guy was way too good with the sword. somehow, he was able to dodge and counter Desires attacks like he's been fighting her for years he was able to take on both silver viper and desire like the fight was straight choregraph.

Then a large wave of mana hit all three of them throwing them back a few yards as Apollo unleashed a powerful burst of mana to break free of silver viper's ice dome he was encased in. Apollo used his ultimate skill [Limit Break].

Before anyone could react, a giant building size mana made sword was coming down on the three players as each tried their best to block the attack or dodge it. Legendary swordsman tried to dodge the attack but was meet by apollo who instantly appeared behind the samurai as if he teleported. Legend eyes widen in surprise at the speed of which apollo was moving as he tried his best to defend against the onslaught of attacks apollo was dishing out as Legendary swordsman body was overwhelmed by the attacks as he was blasted into nothingness by the powerful waves of [Mana Blades].

Silver Viper was next to fall as her ice dome that protected her was cut in half by the large mana blade and the smaller mana blades that apollo sent at her finish her off in a deafening explosion. Desire was holding her [Ki Barrier] skill up with a struggling rage as she was pelted by a barrage of mana blades that was cracking her shield with each blade as she screams out to hold against the onslaught in till it stops all of a sudden.

"Fuck dude! are you serious? why he had to show up now." Apollo yells out with a sigh as he looks towards a certain direction.

Desire was breathing hard as she wonders why apollo stop his attacks. She looks towards the direction apollo was looking at. Desire sees a dark figure in the sky flying towards apollo and then she heard him before she could fully make out the winged figure.

"APOLLO!!! HAHA!! let's settle this once and for all good vs evil!" Akujin yells out as his speed increased with a burst as he crashed into apollo as they were flying towards the center of the map clashing in the air with explosive attacks like fireworks.

"So, this is the power of legendary class players!" Desire yells out as she smiles in excitement as she follows after the duo towards the center of the map where it will all end to decide who is the world strongest as the fog is creeping closer to the center of the map.
