Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player - Chapter 555: Beyond Limits

Chapter 555: Beyond Limits

Leo felt all of his senses numbing as his stamina dropped below the 5% threshold.

[ System Notification :- Your stamina has dropped under the 5% mark, you have entered a near unconscious state, all stats reduced by 60%

Vision reduced by 60%

Sound sense reduced by 60%

Pain detection reduced by 60% ]

With his stamina dropping under the 5% mark, Leo could no longer even see his opponents clearly.

His speed reduced significantly, to the point where he was no longer faster than his foes and his strength reduced to the point where he could no longer throw daggers beyond a 15 meter range.

*Swoosh*

*Swoosh*

Leo swung his daggers wildly, however, to his horror there were no enemies in the area where he was swinging.

His vision had started to double and he could no longer make out where his enemy was exactly standing.

60% of his vision had already blacked out and the little area from where he could still see was not reliable.

The picture he could see was hazy and to make things worse his sound sense had numbed too.

He could no longer hear the approaching footsteps of his opponents, which made defending his blindspots very difficult.

‘I can’t…. I’m not meant to fight in the open’ Leo thought, as even his thoughts started to slow down alongside his physical fatigue.

However, because of the sheer will inside him to not give up no matter what, he decided to drop a few gas bombs all around him, just to buy some breathing time for himself.

*Boom*

*Boom*

*Boom*

Clumsily dropping all the smoke bombs tied on his belt, Leo created a dark smoke cover all around him, however, instead of fighting inside this dark smoke cover, he simply laid flat on the ground and started to pant heavily.

“Where is he? Where is The Boss?”

“Everyone beware, his attacks can come from any direction!”

“Agh fuck this, I’m not waiting for him to kill me!”

Blinded inside the smoke, the rankers became extremely cautious, as their paranoia caused them to attack one another.

When they accidentally rubbed shoulders against a fellow ranker, or felt a sound approach from behind them, they turned and used that opportunity to attack preemptively, often injuring one another, while Leo laid flat on the ground.

Thankfully, nobody could see what ‘TheBoss’ was up to, as if anyone were to see the mighty Boss at this moment, lying flat on the ground with his belly up, their respect for him would undoubtedly diminish.

However, thankfully nobody was any wiser, as for the two minutes that the smoke covered the area, Leo rested with his eyes closed, his stamina inching back to above 5% at 6.5%, removing the extreme debuff that it brought alongside it.

“Alright…. This is it…” Leo murmured, getting back to his feet as, by the time the smoke disappeared, he noticed that there were only 12 opponents left alive from this wave.

Miraculously, while he was resting, they had internally killed 10 of each other, accidentally helping Leo’s cause big time.

*Shua*

*Shua*

*Shua*

*Shua*

With four precise dagger throws, the twelve were swiftly reduced to eight as Leo flawlessly impaled four of his targets in the neck.

“Damn, TheBoss is still in top form…” muttered one of the remaining rankers, only for Leo to launch three more daggers his way.

*Splat*

*Slash*

*Splat*

“You bet I am,” Leo replied, claiming the man’s life with a deadly strike, as he maintained his calm and controlled composure despite hitting rock bottom.

However, while he appeared to be calm on the surface, internally his panic heightened when he realized that he was running low on daggers.

Despite normally carrying over a thousand in his inventory, today’s fierce battle had nearly depleted them all, leaving him down to his last set.

This meant that after using twelve more, he’d have to start retrieving them from the ground to continue fighting, which was not an ideal scenario at all as it left his open to counterattacks and a whole lot of issues.

“How? How are you still going? What kind of monster are you?” Asked one of the seven remaining rankers, as Leo looked at him with dead fatigue in his eyes as he said “How do you breathe? How does your heart pump blood?”

“How does the sun shine? And how does the moon change its phases?

Something’s in this universe are just definite and ‘TheBoss’ winning is one of them.

Doesn’t matter how many of you come at me, in the end, I shall always prevail” Leo said, as he charged towards that ranker, jumping above his head in a backflip as he killed him by impaling his head from his crown.

[ Player Keith has been eliminated ]

[ Player Keya has been eliminated ]

[ Player Sheila has been eliminated ]

[ Player Rosie has been eliminated ]

[ Player Mauve has been eliminated ]

[ Player Tanya has been eliminated ]

[ Player Vana has been eliminated ]

One after another, Leo eliminated all 7 remaining opponents of the 17th wave, before slipping below the 5% stamina threshold, as he dropped down to one knee and panted heavily.

He was at his absolute limit now and had nothing left to give anymore.

‘No more…. Please, no more’ he begged internally, however, to his horror, the gates opened once more and a wave of enemies rushed inside once more.

This time 31 in number.

It was the 18th and last wave. However, Leo was not aware that they were the last.

For him it was one more wave in a never ending marathon of opponents, as looking at him bent on one knee, his opponents felt confident in being able to slay him.

“He doesn’t even have the strength to stand anymore…. If we can’t beat him now, we might as well stop calling ourselves rankers” said one of the 31 who entered, as he prepared to blast Leo with his strongest spell.

Could Leo survive?

Did he have it in him to fight one last wave?
