Chapter 175 Maze Runner Second To Fourth Divison
After our event, it would be the second to a fourth year to do theirs. Now that our team was in the first the second year of our division couldn\'t help but be nervous.
The expectations for the second year to do good were higher, seeing that we could win this year. I had recognized two of the second year, while I didn\'t know the other four.
Audrey is the one who I run into a lot, and Isabelle, who I met in the survival exam. The second-year captain was someone who goes by the name Lavander.
Our team should do well, seeing that at least three people here could perform well. Audrey was someone strong in terms of power, and Isabelle was someone who excelled in defense. They had good team chemistry.
With the event starting, the second year would begin their maze. I had heard that Avaris and Mt. Igarde, and Echela were the strongest in the second-year section.
But this event relies on intuition, speed, and carefulness. One big mistake could end your whole run in this maze.
With the event starting, every team ran immediately. The second year already knew what to expect from watching us.
Spectating what the other teams were doing, they were doing what Mabel had done. There wasn\'t anyone in the second year having magic that would show the direction of the maze.
The maze that the second year was placed in was more complex. The monsters were ranked higher, while the traps were more tricky.
There wasn\'t anything too spectacular, but after a while, there were two team fighting. The two teams that fought were Avaris and Echela.
Two teams that were pretty high up in power were fighting. With the two of them having a minor skirmish, a third team arrived.
The third team was Team Igarde. Now that the three had arrived, all of the strongest second year were now face to face.
Surprisingly, Team Igarde had an agreement to team up with Avaris. Now that Igarde had joined the battle, it was now a 12v6.
Team Echela, who was being ganged up, is losing. By the end of it, all of Echela\'s members had been eliminated.
Igarde had four players left, while Avaris had three. Echela had done pretty well despite being ganged up by the other two teams. By the look of it, Avaris and Igarde would team up for the remainder of this event.
Team Everest completed the event first. They had finished the event twenty minutes behind us. The following few teams were Grandelle and Evergreen.
Our second-year students had made it fourth, which was pretty good in its own right. Fifth was Avaris, followed by Igarde. Team Avaris sneaked in first before Igarde could follow. I could see Igarde pretty pissed from this.
Seventh would be Estia, and Eight was Uthua. Finishing last would be Etheal. They were pretty unlucky and had found the exit last.
Just from this, the standings changed. We were still in first, with Etheal being last. Etheal only had five points, while we got seventeen.
The difference was already big from these two rounds. They would need a miracle from the other two years to catch up.
Next was the third year doing it. I couldn\'t help but look at our third-year students. I heard that their results for last year\'s tournament were horrible. They had scored ninth, making our average extremely low.
Since this was a maze, it wasn\'t all about fighting. I hope they would at least get average in an event like this.
With the event starting for the third year, I couldn\'t help but pray that god would help them in an event like this.
The teams that were eliminated for the third year were Evergreen and Mt. Igarde. Two people were eliminated this time around. The top three went to Etheal, who got first, while Echela was second and followed by Estia.
I can\'t believe our team had gotten eighth. Despite having a freebie of having two teams dropped, they had technically gotten last. Our team got unlucky with their score.
Looking at them, I could see they were ashamed of what they had gotten. Now that they are finished. It was the fourth year\'s turn. Bidding them good luck, I hoped the fourth year could do much better than the third year.
The fourth year was more brutal than the rest. Four teams were eliminated, with the other four teams hurt.
Eight teams had confronted one another, and all were fighting to eliminate the other. Our team fought with Everest, with our team completely wiping them. Our team had two survivors, with the captain wiped.
Avaris fought with Etheal, losing the fight, causing them to all lose. Etheal had survived with one person that was their captain.
Grandelle fought Uthua, having to kick out all their members. Grandelle had three members, not including their captain.
Echela and Estia fought, with Echela winning. Echela, like Etheal, had one more surviving member, not including the captain.
Evergreen, who hasn\'t fought, had gotten first place. They had a member in their team that specialized in stealth. They had dodged every trap and monster, making it easy for them to clear the maze.
Mt. Igarde was the team that also hadn\'t fought the other teams. They had gotten second place by rushing everything. Team Igarde had run past everything destroying everything on its way.
I can\'t believe that our team had gotten last again. With four teams eliminated, they had finished last, ending the game.
Looking at the score and the results were shown on the board.
[Score:
Star State: 10 + 7 + 3 + 4 = 24 Points
Etheal: 3 + 2 + 10 + 5 = 20 Points
Avaris: 6 + 6 + 7 + 0 = 19 Points
Everest: 2 + 10 + 6 + 0 = 18 Points
Evergreen: 5 + 8 + 0 + 10 = 23 Points
Mt. Igarde: 4 + 5 + 0 + 9 = 18 Points
Grandelle: 0 + 9 + 5 + 7 = 21 Points
Echela: 7 + 0 + 9 + 6 = 22 Points
Uthua: 9 + 3 + 4 + 0 = 16 Points
Estia: 8 + 4 + 8 + 0 = 20 Points]
The overall score was all close. We were in the lead by a point, but any mistake could cost us that lead.
Everest was behind us at one point, and Echela, who was third, was behind at two points. The next game should now be underway.
