Omega Summoner

The event has already proceeded with half time and about five national teams have already been eliminated. The teams for Australia, Ukraine, Thailand, Poland, and Taiwan have all been eliminated. They might have had a better chance, but they encountered Hou Yiwei, Frey, Vayu and Blade on their way.

The other teams are also not faring too well as five other countries have only one player left. These five countries are Italy, Philippines, Malaysia, Finland, and Canada. The other national teams left have three to five members left in their roster.

The countrymen of those that were eliminated might have been a bit sad that the ones representing their country all lost but that is also part of the game. They were actually not told that the course is also filled with many traps that could even be fatal to some that are unfortunate to receive their effects.

"We already are in half-time folks! This is the time for the surprise mechanics! Allow me to explain! This is not just an ordinary event that they need to shoot down all targets! To make things interesting, the map will suddenly become hit with different disasters!

For the next three hours, a disaster will hit every time that all the players accumulate a score that equates to 30. These disasters are not just curses but also blessings as the targets that are difficult to target will momentarily pause in their tracks.

This would be an opportunity to all the players that want to find the Golden Sprite! Each player will have to navigate the map with splendid ways in order to transform a disaster into an opportunity! Good Luck to all of you!" The announcer stated and even his voice has been transmitted to those inside the game as they needed to get an idea of the twist of the game.

Some of the players suddenly become weary as a disaster is very vague way to describe something that could affect the match. They wanted more information, but they could not as they are in constant movement and awareness of their surroundings.

[Thirty points have been accumulated by all players. The first disaster will hit. Be careful of your surroundings.]

A few minutes later, the ground started to shake as the first disaster is none other than an earthquake. The players that were not that occupied searched for an open area as it would be bad for them to be inside a forest or near a mountain if an earthquake is actually happening.

Some players died in the earthquake as it became more intense every minute for the whole ten minutes. Just like what the announcer said, the targets stopped moving and someone had a glimpse of the Golden Sprite, yet it was in a location that is difficult to hit.

The Golden Sprite is actually in between a crack in the mountain but the player that found it suddenly got eliminated by a large falling rock. It seems that he became mesmerized by the sudden thought of winning the game that he forgot to look around his surroundings.

"Oh! Too bad for the last player of Team Canada! He might have gotten a lot of points if he would have hit the Golden Sprite, but he could not target it properly since the surroundings rocked like no tomorrow." The announcer stated as he did not want to make the player that exited his game pod to be disappointed on himself than he already is.

The earthquake finally stopped, and almost half of the forest is gone because all the trees tumbled down due to the high intensity earthquake. Only a few players managed to get unscathed by the earthquake and now all of them became wary of the disasters.

The mountain that was in the north of the map also became a sad excuse of a pile of stone. The map became less arduous, but it also increased the danger level of game. The players could feel that the match will now become more intense.

Half of the forest that sheltered those that can hide well is now gone. The mountain became rubble that killed players that hid or searched for targets there. The only way to easily win now is to destroy every target that they can as they can now clearly see the targets floating in the air freely now that most of the cover is gone.

"The Golden Sprite!" one of the spectators shouted as the audience has now a great detailed view of the most coveted item in the event.

The Golden Sprite like its name is actually a small machine-like entity with golden wings. Some may say that it just looks like a glorified ball golem with golden wings fluttering in high speeds. It is lightweight and vey fast that makes catching it become such a tedious chore.

The players in the field also saw the Golden Sprite and greed also flared in their hearts as that thing cost the most points in the game. If they could destroy that then they would have already got one step ahead of all the players in the game.

Each of the teams now have dedicated players that followed the Golden Sprite as they want to get the points. The others that could not afford to split up has made a decision to either risk it or play safe and destroy the remaining flying targets.

Those that are only one player left could only wait for their chance and just try their best. A golden opportunity might come knocking towards them if they time their skills perfectly. They still have the opportunity to turn things around as they are usually the ones to bet on that single defining moment.

Even the other players are wary of those that are left all alone since they are usually the ones that become more determined. The intense fight for the most points in the Sharp Shooter Event has finally started which others dubbed as the Great Disaster Battle.
