30 minutes before, Fiona is on her way with her companions to catch up Andrei. It seems that all things were alright.
Until one moment, one of her companion saw a huge beam from the skies falling down towards the Eastern Gate.
"What was that??? is that a beam?"
Fiona look up on the skies. She was shocked that makes her stop running.
"Don't tell me that.... it's the spear of 2nd General??"
She was confused because of that beam. All of them stopped running to see what will happen. The moment that Beam were landed, it created a huge explosion. it was like a meteor landed on the surface.
After the impact, the strong winds gazed towards them. A huge explosion has been created because of that beam.
Because of that strong winds with dust on it, they hide themselves in order to avoid that. few seconds have passed, only left was a debris caused by that explosion.
Fiona think that huge beam was an attack yo kill Andrei.
"Andrei...." She said that and she run faster as she can to catch up with Andrei. Her companions have catch up to her to find Andrei.
-- * --
Back to Andrei. At that moment, he thinks that he already lost his hope to go out safely on 4th floor.
He was sitting down on with the dead body, and a guy holding a spear approached him.
"Hey Andrei little boy..... why are you crying over there? It's just a useless NPC died protecting you from my attack. How pathetic...."
Andrei looked down and he Didn't respond from his question. He's just quiet without any reaction or fear of dying.
"Hay... Such a pain on the ass....."
He pointed the spear on Andrei's forehead and say:
"I Hate the most of people is that ignoring me for something that I asked. I'm giving you another chance to answer me. Why are you Crying?"
For the mean time, Andrei answered.
"Why you didn't just kill me right now? That's what you want isn't?" He answered without any expression.
"Huh??..... HAHAHAHAH" He laugh so hard after he heard that. He pull back his spear and he tell some information about him.
"You have no fun Andrei..... well I will let that go for awhile... well let me introduce myself... I'm General Gurren. The 2nd General of this Game. They call me 'The Mighty Spear' because of this spear. My level is now at level 570 And I am a Legendary weapon wielder."
*Name: Gurren <2nd General> <The Mighty Spear>
Level: 570
Age: 21
Type: player
Weapon: Umugani <Spear> weapon
Andrei were surprised from what he heard. He look upward to face Gurren.
"Huh??... Level 570? A Legendary Spear wielder?... 2nd General?"
"Yes you're right Andrei... I am the strongest player inside this game. I don't know why I'm still at the 2nd rank but that's not a matter. as long as no one defeat me, I'm still confident that I'm strongest."
"We're just started this past months but why your level is higher than any player? Plus the maximum level is 100. how?"
Gurren make a smug face to impress Andrei.
"Listen little boy, There's no minimum and maximum inside this world. All of this are infinite. Plus I'm a Old player. I entered this game a year ago."
"A year ago? So you mean we're the new players that's why your level is higher than us?"
"Yes that's right.... But im not the only player with high level like me. As I remember, there was more than 100 old players that left on this world. And most of them are Legendary weapon wielder just like me. Well we're forced to kill each other to live on this world even further. And we're ranked because of that. sigh..... such memories...."
"Huh??..... Kill each other??"
All of that we're untold Truth of the Game. At that moment Andrei were frightening. All of that things were never told to anyone except him.
But General Gurren is not yet done from what he will say. He pointed his index finger to Andrei and tell something.
"And you... You are very special to Princess Andrea. She tell something that I really wanted to get on this game in my whole life. And I wanted to get that so bad. That's why I must kill you to get that thing."
Andrei didn't respond and he look down again. It's like he's now meaningless to what just happened to that lady ripped off her hand and cut by half. He just sit still seeing the dead body on his front.
General Gurren doesn't care about that. He get his spear and pointed it again on Andrei's forehead.
"Now this is goodbye Andrei... Because from now on, I'm the wielder of that legendary weapon of yours!!"
He pull his spear upward to stab Andrei to death. But Andrei still doesn't care what will happen to him.
While General Gurren is now going to kill Andrei, There's something that is approaching towards him. General Gurren noticed that and he face to left to see that, That thing landed in front of him. It's like a stone that thrown away.
Few seconds have passed, that thing exploded with a thick smoke on it. On that thick smoke, There's a lady that approached Andrei. She get his back and run away as long as she can.
General Gurren swing his spear to remove the smoke around him. After he removed that, he noticed that Andrei is already gone.
"Did he get away?..... No, He's still here. I can sense his presence..."
Back to Andrei, They run 500 meters away from General Gurren. They hide on one building to get some rest.
Andrei was so relief that one of his 3 companions were still alive. She's fine but she's not on her proper condition.
"I'm glad that you're still alive...."
"Yeah... I'm still alive.... but I'm not fine as before. I got few wounds around my body. I don't think that I can still go with you."
"What are you talking about? we're now near to that portal. we can now leave here..."
"Sir Andrei, listen to me. That portal is temporary. There's a time limit before the portal close. And we need to maximize that time to get out you here."
"Maximum Time?"
"At this moment, we still have 2 hours and 45 minutes before the portal be closed. we can't maximize that time because General Gurren is after you. I need to peruse him to make you chance to get out on this floor. So please Sir Andrei.... Leave now without me"
Andrei is trying to argue because of that. he don't believe that she can't leave on this floor.
"No, I will not leave here without you. You lead the way towards the Eastern gate so that you need to go out here."
At that moment, She hold his two hands.
"Sir Andrei... Your friends are waiting you on other side of that portal. They need you so much and our leader need you so much. We lend our lives here just to save you. so please.... Leave without me...."
Andrei reconsidered that, Finally he accepted her offer to leave the floor without her. They make a plan how to get out.
Few minutes have passed, General Gurren Found the place where they are hiding, He follow Andrei's presence towards the place where they are hiding.
He haven't seen them but he knows where is Andrei. So instead finding them, he shouted to lure out where is Andrei.
"Where are you Andrei my boi??? I know that you're hiding here. So get out now before I find you... I will count one to Five. at the count of five, you already get out on your hiding place!! let's start now..."
"One!!"
"Two!!"
"Three!!"
No one responded until at the count of three.
"Four!!"
"And Fi--"
There's someone that popped out from nowhere. He expected Andrei but it was different. It was a lady with a red coat holding her sword using her right hand.
"Sorry to bother you but Andrei is not around here..."
General Gurren is surprised. He expected that Andrei will go out but instead, it's the other person. he still don't understand why is that happened.
Now A new match will now start. Meanwhile Andrei is now finding his way out on this floor. This is the last chance where Andrei will go out.
There's still 150 minutes left before the portal closed.
