Is this really a Game?!

Chapter 1093: Drake's Death, Battle for the Flame Resumes

Reign's dual swords shimmered with light and darkness, striking with precision at the drake's vulnerable side. His movements were fluid and relentless, each strike aimed to deepen the wounds and weaken the beast further. Shadow's daggers, coated in corrosive darkness, found the gaps in the drake's armor, poisoning it from within.

Aelrinder's spear, imbued with wind energy, pierced through the drake's exposed flesh, causing it to thrash in agony.

Mia's frost magic continued to hinder the drake's movements, creating icy patches that caused the beast to slip and stumble as the other teams were doing their best to do the same thing she was doing as well. Laura's demonic energy blasts struck with unerring accuracy, targeting the drake's weakened leg and further destabilizing it.

Beast's arrows rained down like deadly hail, each one finding a mark in the drake's exposed wounds. Jin's explosions created powerful shockwaves, disorienting the drake and preventing it from mounting an effective counterattack.

The other teams, seeing the coordinated assault from the Heaven's Hooligans, redoubled their efforts. Magic users from different teams cast powerful spells, sending bolts of lightning and waves of fire at the drake. Warriors and rogues struck at the beast's legs and underbelly, their weapons gleaming with enchanted energy.

The drake's roars grew weaker, its movements more sluggish. It was clear that the combined efforts of the teams and monsters were taking their toll. The once invincible beast was now a bleeding, struggling shadow of its former self.

"Keep pushing!" Reign shouted, his voice carrying over the din of battle. "We're almost there!"

With one final, coordinated effort, the teams launched their most powerful attacks. Greenie's hammer struck the drake's leg with bone-shattering force, causing the beast to collapse to the ground. Wolf's greatsword, wreathed in chaos flames, cleaved through the drake's side, leaving a deep, gaping wound. Shadow's daggers and Aelrinder's spear struck simultaneously, piercing the beast's heart.

The drake let out one last, ear-piercing roar before collapsing, its massive body shaking the earth as it fell. The combined efforts of the teams and monsters had brought down the mighty beast, and the battlefield fell eerily silent in the aftermath of the titanic struggle.

Reign and his team let out a collective sigh of relief, their breaths heavy and their bodies exhausted from the intense battle. They had faced a formidable foe and emerged victorious, their unity and combined strength proving to be an unstoppable force.

"We did it," Reign said, his voice filled with a mixture of pride and exhaustion. "The drake is down."

The other teams, realizing that the immediate threat was over, began to regroup and assess their situation. The tension remained high, as the Flame of Ascendance still needed to be claimed, and the competition was far from over.

"What do you think the chances are they will be ready to talk and decide who gets the flame without a battle?" Shadow asked Reign who chuckled as he clenched his swords.

And then, chaos ensued as the teams all started fighting. There were even some monsters who were presumed dead that suddenly got up from the ground and joined the battle while a couple more monsters appeared from the mountaintop as well.

Reign surveyed the chaotic battlefield, his senses heightened. "It looks like we don't have a choice," he said, his voice calm but filled with resolve. "Stay together and watch each other's backs. Let's get through this."

The Heaven's Hooligans regrouped, their focus shifting back to the teams and monsters vying for the Flame of Ascendance. The air was thick with tension and the roar of battle, but their determination remained unshaken.

Greenie, Wolf, and Tank moved to the front, their formidable presence a bulwark against the oncoming threats. Wolf's greatsword blazed with chaos flames, casting a sinister glow over the battlefield as he cleaved through opponents. Greenie's hammer smashed into the ground, creating shockwaves that sent enemies sprawling.

Tank's shield absorbed blows and protected his teammates, as well as his strength and resilience in holding the line.

Mia, Laura, and Beast provided crucial support from a distance. Mia's frost magic created barriers and hindered enemy movements, Laura's demonic energy blasts struck with pinpoint accuracy, and Beast's arrows found their marks, each shot aimed to disable and disrupt. Jin's explosions added to the chaos, creating powerful shockwaves that disoriented and scattered the opposing forces.

Shadow and Aelrinder, with their agility and precision, weaved through the battlefield, striking at key targets and sowing confusion among the enemy ranks. Shadow's daggers flashed with deadly speed, finding weak points in armor and flesh, while Aelrinder's spear danced through the air, its sharp point piercing through defenses with ease.

The other teams and monsters clashed violently, the battlefield a maelstrom of magic, steel, and fury. Reign moved with calculated precision, his dual swords a blur of light and darkness as he targeted the leaders of the opposing teams, knowing that taking them down would disrupt their coordination.

He spotted a group of monsters trying to sneak past the chaos to reach the flame. With a burst of speed, Reign intercepted them, his swords slicing through their ranks with lethal efficiency. He was quickly joined by Wolf, whose chaos flames incinerated the remaining monsters, leaving nothing but ash in their wake.

"We need to secure the flame!" Reign shouted over the din of battle. "Everyone, converge on its location!"

The team moved with purpose, cutting a path through the chaos. They reached the flame's location, where a fierce battle was already raging between several teams. The ground was littered with fallen combatants, and the air was thick with the smell of blood and death.

Reign's eyes locked onto the Flame of Ascendance. It pulsed with a powerful, ethereal light, a beacon of hope and victory. He knew that they had to secure it at all costs.

The team quickly exploded with immense power and cut a path through the enemies nearly instantly before reaching the flame.

"Form a defensive perimeter around the flame!" Reign commanded. "We hold this position until we can secure it."

The Heaven's Hooligans moved into formation, their backs to the flame as they faced the oncoming waves of enemies. Greenie, Wolf, and Tank formed the front line, their combined strength holding back the tide. Mia, Laura, and Beast provided support from a distance, their spells and arrows keeping the enemy at bay.

Shadow, Aelrinder, and Jin moved with deadly precision, striking down those who dared approach.

"No holding back any longer, activate your marks, we will need to go all out if we hope to win this thing." Reign stated as the others nodded before doing what he told them to do.

Reign stood at the center, his dual swords at the ready. He knew that the final moments of this battle would be the most crucial. They had to hold their ground and protect the flame until they could claim victory.

The enemy forces pressed in from all sides, desperate to reach the flame. The air was filled with the clash of steel, the roar of spells, and the cries of the wounded. Despite the overwhelming odds, the Heaven's Hooligans fought with unwavering resolve.

Greenie's hammer struck with bone-shattering force, sending enemies sprawling as his red skin glowed dimply from transforming. Wolf's greatsword, wreathed in the Everlasting purple flames now, cleaved through armor and flesh. Tank's shield absorbed blows, protecting his teammates from harm.

Thanks to his mark, Tank's body had grown larger and was a lot more powerful and durable compared to before, allowing him to defend against many more attacks.

Mia's frost magic created barriers of ice, hindering enemy movements and providing cover for their attacks. Laura's demonic energy blasts struck with deadly precision, taking down key targets.

Beast's arrows flew through the air, each one finding its mark and causing chaos among the enemy ranks while the three tamed beasts that he had summoned fought with full force, eviscerating the enemy combatants as they held nothing back.

Both Blackie and the flood dragon had marks as well, and the power they possessed was nothing short of breathtaking.

Jin's explosions created powerful shockwaves, disorienting their opponents and creating openings for their attacks.

Shadow and Aelrinder moved with lethal grace, their swift strikes taking down key targets and sowing confusion among the enemy forces. Shadow's daggers found weak points in armor, while Aelrinder's spear pierced through defenses with precision.

Reign's dual swords shimmered with light and darkness as he engaged the leaders of the opposing teams. He targeted those who posed the greatest threat, knowing that taking them down would destabilize their forces. His strikes were swift and decisive, each one aimed to incapacitate or kill. Soon, Wolf and Shadow joined him, alleviating some of the pressure from him.

Despite the overwhelming odds, the Heaven's Hooligans held their ground, their unity and combined strength turning the tide in their favor. They fought with everything they had, their determination unwavering.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the enemy forces began to falter. Their numbers dwindled, their resolve breaking in the face of the Heaven's Hooligans' relentless assault. Reign saw the opportunity and seized it.

"Now! Push forward and secure the flame, then we go down!" Reign commanded, his voice filled with determination.
