Chapter Eighty-Four: In Your Arms

FINN

The first twenty hours have successfully passed.

The sky never changes color kaya ang orasan na nasa taas ang naging pamantayan namin. There's still a couple of hours before the main event happens - which I presume to be three hours before the time limit ends.

Ang Blood Vanguard pa rin ang nangunguna, now dominating the North district. Ang kapartner nitong Death Crows ay nasa top 3 at nasa pagitan nila ang Reaper's Oath. The Lone Wolves is tied with Death Crows, having one of the largest territory in the West District and one more at the South. The unfamiliar alliance remained at the last place with a small territory.

Kung titingnan ay mukhang hindi na dapat kabahan sa last place because weaker alliances will probably land in it. Kaya naman may posibilidad na most alliances would fight for the first spot. Para makuha na rin ang kung ano mang benepisyo ang nandirito.

Pero ayoko ring maging kampante. As long as time still runs, may posibilidad pang maiba ang current rankings. Kahit na sa mga maliliit na alyansa pa iyon.

Who knows what monsters they've hidden?

Nagtatago ako sa dilim na dala ng eskinita. Hindi kalawak ang nakikita ko gaya sa taas but down here, I can perfectly watch the players. Naririnig ko ang mga tahimik nilang diskusyon at mas nagiging pamilyar ako sa mukha nila. Mas komportable rin munang gumalaw sa dilim ngayon, lalo na't hindi ko alam kung nasaan ang mga kaaway ko.

Lumiko ako sa isang mas narrow na daanan. The whole city is just similar to a maze when it comes to the alleys. Maraming pasikot-sikot na daanang pwede ka ring ibalik sa kung saan ka nagsimula. Kaya dapat talagang tandaan ang mga nadaanan para hindi rin maligaw. Thankfully, one of my benefits has helped me navigate the city well.

Unbeknownst to them, I have eyes all over the city.

Hindi siya sobrang linaw na alam ko kung sino-sino ang nasa isang lugar, but I could easily perceive how many are there in a certain building and who are guarding it. Dahil isa itong alliance wars, ang buong grupo ay nakapaloob na sa 'players I could never harm'.

Kaya alam ko rin kung saan nakapuwesto ang main base ng Lone Wolves.

I remained hidden in the shadows as I passed three guarding players. The blue and white flag was visible to my eyes as I neared a semi-destroyed building. Mga lima ring players ang nakabantay dito. This is, after all, the biggest territory owned by an alliance. If anyone is ever given the opportunity to steal, siguradong ito talaga ang pupuntiryahin nila.

I also have a feeling that Marcella is eyeing this territory.

The building was deserted. Maliban sa players na kilala ko bilang ka-alyansa, there are also unfamiliar people looming around the base. Their presence are meek but I could spot them. Siguro'y nag-oobserba lang rin sila at hinahanap ang tamang oras para umatake.

Kung hindi lang sa mga identifier for similar alliance members, I wouldn't be able to differentiate who is who. The alliance have never grouped like this before. Talagang isinapuso namin ang pangalan at nagsolo o duo halos lahat sa'min.

I've reached the fifth floor of the building when I felt a presence. I carefully walked around the hallway, feeling the walls closely para malaman ko kung saan ba talaga nakapwesto ang tao.
