chapter-763
The next day arrived, and the third event will be held for ten hours. The first half of the event will be from 7:00 AM in the morning to 12:00 PM at noon. There will be a lunch break for one hour and it will resume from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
The audience already knew of this arrangement which is why they had opted to bring their food in the stands. They knew that this event will be the most intense because it is a hunting game. If the first event tested the players' map awareness and the second event tested the player's tactics, then the third event tested their hunting style.
Although some players would watch guides on how to hunt a monster, they would still often modify that strategy and hunting style to fit their playstyle. This event tested such things as numerous monsters will be scattered throughout the map.
Since the map is five times bigger than the previous map, the speed of the players is doubled in order to easily cross the gaps between distances. The map is the same as that of the second event map but this time it is filled with all sorts of creatures that range from F Rank to SSS Rank.
Each monster also gives different number of points depending on the rank. The players have been presented this point distribution since yesterday due to this event being the longest one. It is also the reason why the procession ceremony at the start of the event is cancelled.Monster Difficulty – Number of Monsters – Number of points
SSS Rank – 1 x Monsters – 1000 Points per monster
SS Rank – 5 x Monsters – 100 Points per monster
S Rank – 10 x Monsters – 50 Points per monster
A Rank – 15 x Monsters – 30 Points per monster
B Rank – 20 x Monsters – 20 Points per monster
D Rank – 30 x Monsters – 10 Points per monsterD Rank – 50 x Monsters – 5 Points per monster
E Rank – 100 x Monsters – 2 Points per monster
F Rank – 200 x Monsters – 1 Point per monster
The highest number of points that a monster could give is a thousand points if they defeat the SSS rank difficulty monster. The lowest one is the F Rank at one point per monster, but they number about 200. If the team could kill all F Ranked monsters, then they can easily earn 200 points which could make them be the winner if an opposing team does not kill four S rank monsters.
The players were just given this point system so that they know what to expect and they also noticed the big difference between the SSS Rank monster and the SS rank monster. There is a huge gap for the point system for defeating the SSS Rank monster from the rank below which means it will be something special.
The players and even the audience suddenly noticed that the team that basically defeats the SSS Rank monster will be the winners of the game. It is obvious with what the developers are hinting at for the event. They are basically challenging the players from all over the world to try and kill the most powerful monster.
The rules for this event are simpler because it is basically a monster hunting event called Forest Hunter. The only thing that baffled the players and the audience is the name of the event. The contestants were not actually just fighting in a forest which is why they thought it as strange.
As the audience and the contestants all had their doubts about the name of the event, the rules are flashed for the audience to see. This time other players are discouraged to kill one another as they gain nothing by doing so.
Rules for the Forest Hunter Event:
1. You cannot gain point/points by killing a fellow contestant.
2. The inventory will be fully accessible, but players can only access 10 items of their choosing at the start of the event. These 10 items have already been passed and classified before the event. Players who utilize items for battle will have more bag space for their registered items.
3. Only the one who kills the monster will be able to gain the points for their team.
4. There are random safe zones in the area and each national team will be transported to them via random draw.
5. Players can use mounts or pets for this match. The movement speed bonus will also affect the mounts and pets. Only registered mounts and pets could be used in this event.
There are just five rules for this event as it is a hunting event but that also meant that the restriction for this event is low. Players with high imagination or battle strategy are basically needed for these as lesser restrictions means more possibilities.
For example, the rule about the inventory said that they can only use 10 classified items prior to the match but the inventory is still useful and infinite. For the players known as tacticians, they already found the hint for this rule as it means that items are probably scattered all throughout the huge map.
The players might be restricted in the things that they can bring but that also means that they can use whatever they pick up. Although opposing player's equipment will not drop, that does not mean that their consumables are the same. Other players could basically steal the potions of another player as long as they are caught off-guard.
The safe zones should be more like resting areas, but they should be small in size. There are lots of monsters scattered in the area which means twenty safe zones are just too many even for the third event. The map being widened is also something that they took note of as this could mean that large monsters inhabit the map.
The most important thing for this event is the last hit. The rule that the one who kills the monster is basically a rule that enforces kill stealing.
