<h4>Chapter 316 - Never Stab A Dry Tree</h4>
Edge never panicked , even after Karna was able to hold his own against his entire team. His scout and the only member not involved in this fight confirmed the fact that the others from his team had not shown any movement and that no reinforcements wereing.
The rate at which Karna was fighting he was sure to tire himself sooner orter changing the tides of the fight. Hence he was patient in his approach towards Karna . Hemended his fighting skills, however snickered at his stupidity toe alone.
However the situation drastically changed when suddenly 7 zombies appeared out of nowhere , and started to attack Edge''s team members !!!! , It was the work of the dark faction Zombiemancer from Karna''s team Patch Mori!
Karna grinned behind the sword in his mouth , the zombie''s were here , it only meant that it was only a matter of seconds before he came here too , and indeed he did arrive within the next 5 seconds holding a crystal orb in one hand and an Assassin''s dagger in another , as he threw the dagger right through the neck of one? of the English team healers , sending her packing back to the lobby.
Edge looked at the reinforcement that had arrived and gritted his teeth seeing who it was. The scout mentioned that 7 members were at the base and one was unounted for . That unounted member was Jhonny English , who had came with a crystal orb in hand , which was a special item of the Zombiemancer Patch Mori , that allowed him to control zombies overrge distances.
Jhonny walked in and insta killed the team healer, as he said " What an ugly looking B*** " then looking at Karna he said " Hey thered , don''t worry , lm here now, go do your thing ."
The entire game changed once Jhonny arrived , the healer died , and Karna''s moves suddenly started to be more and more threatening. With the zombie''s interfering and Jhonny randomly throwing arrows , the English team members were forced to divert some of their attention from Karna. Which was the worst move they could make , as without all of them working together to pin Karna , he was a killing machine with no restraints.
Going on a killing spree Karna killed two Barbarians and the swordsman partner of Edge within the next 40 seconds and engaged in a fight against Edge.
Edge was dumbfounded , the way Karna had responded to his strategy was as if he knew about it since the start and had nned for it since the beginning of the game. Going as far as to make him feel safe that no reinforcements wereing , yet when Jhonny showed up he came up with a long range mana control orb that helped Patch Mori control his zombies from the base . Clearly meaning they had nned this beforehand.
But he himself only decided to? use this strategy on the fly , because he was hard pressed to win .... Then how did Karna n for it beforehand? It was almost like fighting an opponent who knew your every next move. It was unfathomable.
Also to his horror , his years of honed swordsmanship was actually being pressed back by Karna''s erratic way of fighting. Over his many years of fighting countless experts , Edge had never fought a triple sword wielder. Who just fought as he liked.
There was no sophistry behind Karna''s moves , it was in power and clean swings. Yet it gave Edge immense pressure. The foreign fighting style left him incapable of mounting counters. As more and more hits keptnding on him.
After a three stepbo , that connected to three vital points On Edge , he received a horrendous critical damage , dropping his HP to a pitch dark red.
Karna at this moment let go of the sword in his mouth , as he looked at Edge and said " You are right , I am no leader , however I don''t have to be one , I have a great leader leading me , even when he is not here , he can see through your petty schemes from a mile away "
Saying soo he unleashed a sword skill , sending Edge to the afterlife!
Seeing this scene at the HQ , Rudra had a tiny tear escape from his eye .... He wiped it off quickly and pretended to be normal. However Naomi had already seen it , she remained silent as a soft smile appeared on her face . Rudra initially only wanted to hire Karna for his skills , however overtime he genuinely gelled up well with the guy and had immense love and respect for him. Boys usually don''t express emotions too well, karna would have never told this same statement to Rudra''s face , hence why it was soo touching to the man.
Neatwit also had a half simmr reaction as he barely contained his tears , seeing which Naomi chuckled thinking '' Its okay to cry boys..'' . however kept her thoughts to herself.
Karna had yed one of his previous shorings ... It was sure to give him a stronger belief in himself . As he looked around to notice the carnage left on the battlefield , he finally noticed Jhonny wrestling an English team yer on the ground , both men having a red HP bar.
Karna cursed " Oh shizz" , hepletely forgot to check on Jhonny in his fight. He had killed four members , while Jhonny had to fight the other four , after killing the healer with one strike.
Karna quickly came to Jhonny''s aid , as they double teamed to end the English yers life. However in a event Karna never sawing. After the party wipe , Jhonny got soo excited that he decided to stab a dagger into the nearby tree in tion . However the impact caused a dead branch to fall down , crushing Jhonny beneath it. As Jhonny had not yet healed .... His dark red HP bar hit 0 .... As he was teleported out of the arena.
