The D-Rank Guild Master of the No. 1 Guild-Chapter 63
No. 1 Guild's D-Class Guild Leader Episode 63
Round 2: Deathrun
<Type: Survival>
- It is a field in the form of an aerial island. You'll have to dodge the crumbling ground from the edges. If you fall down, you will die immediately and return to your guild.
-Step on the circular board in the center of the arena and you are the 1st survivor. Even after all the ground has collapsed and only the disc remains, 10 minutes have passed.
If it remains on the circular plate after 10 minutes, it is final survival.
-Guilds are ranked by the number of guild members remaining on the disc. Guilds that do not succeed in surviving in the end will be ranked below by calculating the distance to the disc just before elimination.
<Number of Players: X>
< Participation in the Army: X>
<No re-entry after death>
"The more people there are, the better, and the subordinate army is not in the field."
As soon as Cannell saw it, he quickly summed it up.
Like the first round, the method and the way points were counted seemed to be simple.
However, due to the large number of fights, it is true that we are absolutely at a disadvantage as there are only five members of the guild.
As soon as I finished explaining the rules, I decided which comrades would join the war.
"Let's decide who will participate in the first Guild Ranking Match......."
I just mimicked the announcement and took a look at it.
Lilit pressed her upper body against the table as if she was going to die of curiosity. I chuckle at that, and Canhar and Carnell sigh in relief.
“…… Gio and I, the two of us who will be participating in the Death Run."
I smiled and tried to soften the mood a bit, but it didn't help.
"Isn't it better to have a lot of people?"
Canal involuntarily raised his voice.
"You know you have to play as stylishly as possible to get a lot of points of play, right? Wouldn't it be cooler if five people went out and some were eliminated, but only two of them went out and they all survived?"
Of course, grades are important, but in the end, the priority was given to the points of play that would leave an impression on the viewers.
The performance of the game is linked to the guild ranking, and how well you perform will improve your ranking and level.
That's how I do with my unique abilities with D-class stats.
And who's going to give up the second round altogether? Shouldn't Gio and I go out and wipe them all out?
I made the proposal with a lot of confidence, but by the end of the speech, everyone was nervous.
Except, of course, only Gio.
Gio: You have to be nervous.
Round <2: Deathrun>
So now, we are in the waiting room. You can think of the waiting room as a place where you stay with your guild members before going out on the field.
As the five-minute countdown ticked by, I sat down on the couch and clicked my feet like never before.
It's been a long time since I've experienced such a tense and joyful feeling.
I feel like a user waiting for the loading screen of a newly downloaded game.
<Lives: 1>
<Mid-Term Entry: X>
The basic rule of the second round is that the guild members must be confirmed before the round begins.
Moreover, after elimination (death in the round), he will not be able to play again.
So, even if you're in the lobby looking through the list of participants from other guilds and thinking, "Oh, I'm screwed," you can't ...... reverse.
I read the roster a few times in the waiting room. I scanned each and every one of the names, but even after seeing them, I couldn't believe it.
'I know very few names.'
I wasn't expecting it and it was even more amazing, on my luck.
"Well, this guild war won't confirm your ranking right away......
Aside from our Agatha Guild, it seems that most of the guilds chose to "take care of themselves" in their first guild battle, Deathrun.
As proof of this, neither in the ice castle nor in the Redmonac did any other members to speak of.
When I asked him why he suggested a friendly match, I think neither Ifreana nor Shemarin were prepared to give their best in the next round.
Maybe that's why they tried harder to see the power of both sides.
By the way, I don't know if you're a clever Shemarin like me, but I didn't expect Aleon to stay in the backline, sending out only weak guild members from the first round.
…… I don't know, but Ifrea must have had a hard time. It is assumed that there was a huge conflict.
In fact, unless you're a ranking person like me, you don't have to risk your life every round.
When the Guild Wars begin, the results of the three rounds will be combined, and only those who finish last will be eliminated.
(This refers to the permanent deletion of data, not the recovery of data after death.)
So, in the case of the ice castle, they don't have too much power, so they want to save Aleon's chances of playing a role in the future.
After all, Iprea is clever. I see through that and look into the board.
"Gio."
On the other side of the waiting room, a stocky man sits in a boredom. There were only the two of us in the spacious waiting room.
Gio was kneading the clay he used as a toy when he glanced at me.
"Don't die."
In fact, it was my only request. Gio twitched his eyebrows.
"Are you afraid I'll get sick when I die?"
"If you die, your stats will be deducted."
Gio said with a look on his face, "Then yes."
By the way, it's amazing that Gio understood perfectly when stats were deducted.
Anyway, as I explained earlier, a certain percentage of stats are deducted from each round when you die.
That's why most of them seem to have excluded the guild/guild leader from the first round.
No matter how strong a character is, they won't be able to survive the death penalty many times. That's what makes the game so much fun.
Probably not, but if we have a crisis in this round, I'd rather save Gio and die for him.
Because the amount of stats to be deducted is different.
"It helps that my rating is embarrassing to be seen."
That's why I chose to play in this round.
They say the protagonist comes later, but I'm going to show up at the beginning and later. Of course, in a power-breathing role.

I'm still running back. It's hard to train for a few days during refresh time to become a D grade or an A grade. So let's take a round and level up.
I looked into it and found out that there were a few guild leaders who participated in the war.
<Guild Name: Butcher>
Roster
Yudirei (Guild Leader)
What's that guild name?
<Guild Name: Anawing>
Roster
Resiya (Guild Leader)
Siakan (Vice Guild Leader)
Are there only two people here? It's worse than our guild, isn't it?
There are about three guilds with guild leaders and vice guild leaders, including our guild.
I don't think all of them are unheard-of. Probably one of the other powerhouses I've never faced.
The field in the first round was large, and I was still a frog in a well, having only walked around a certain part of it.
I thought Aleon was the No. 1 player in the rankings, but I may have passed by a character with equally powerful abilities without even knowing he existed.
But the situation is the same. Yudiray, Lesiya. They've never seen me or Gio before, have they?
I think we need to fight them and win in order to make a meaningful result in this round.
[The countdown is imminent.]
[60, 59, 58…….]
"Gio."
With a glance, Gio rose from his chair. I stretched and lightly relaxed my muscles. I did the same.
[Round 2 begins.]
Paa
As soon as the broadcast sounded, the background changed.
The scenery is transformed into a brilliant one. The empty waiting room space is filled with vivid hues and visual information that hurts the eyes.
This stifling hot air. The scorching sunlight and the golden sand dunes sparkling in its reflection.
'It's a desert.'
I can't think of a more appropriate terrain for a game called Deathrun.
Even if you try to sprint towards the center, your feet will get stuck, and as the ground collapses, the competition between players becomes more intense.
Each of them is busy climbing on top of each other so as not to fall into the swamp of sand.
Shh
Indeed, from a distance of just over 100 meters, the dunes begin to disappear into the rainwater below.
Like a swamp floating in the air, sand swirles down from the edges. Maybe the bottom end is the path to the Fortress Returns, right?
“……!”
All the characters started running at a certain starting line, so there was a random mix of other characters around them.
The fight has already begun.
A man is thrust of his chest with the palm of his hand against another character.
A heavy vibration shoots out of it, spraying the surrounding sand like a storm and sending the shoved man flying backwards.
Up to the part where the sand dunes fall into the rainwater.
"Aa
[1st Dropout!]
The first-round death notification had been replaced by an elimination notification.
That man was the first to experience a drop in the swamp of sand. I'm sure I'll never see you again. You won't be able to re-enter the war.
I don't know what it looks like down there, but I don't think I need to imagine it.
Maybe it's just darkness. After a dizzying fall, you'll wake up and find yourself in a Guild Fortress.
Gio wasn't scared to see a character eliminated in 10 seconds. Because he wasn't mentally weak like Lirith.
But Gio doesn't have the knack for looking at that scene like I do and figuring out how the field works.
Some, like Canel and Canhar, can't even analyze the abilities of the character who just sent the shockwave.
Gio just watches, observes. And as far as he can, he digs deeper than anyone else, as if he were picking a small dot.
By my side, Gio has changed a lot.
"Can you control this sand?"
After all, sand belongs to the ground. And the land is Geo's domain.
Gio raises his palm, and countless grains of sand are lifted into the air.
Soon, the clumped grains formed a dense tray. It was as if I had been turned to stone.
"Like this?"
Gio looks at me and asks.
You can't control precisely. However, it would be impossible for a country to have hundreds of thousands of grains of sand flowing like a stream of water.
Geo was also the least precise in the detailed stats of his unique ability.
Just at this moment, a muffled shout came from behind.
"The fool in the woods!"
I hurriedly slapped Gio on the arm. The grains of sand that had risen up sank back to the bottom, mixing with the other sand.
"Do you remember me?"
Suddenly, the character appears in front of us and glares at us with a resentful face, as if he has a grudge.
