Villain With The Strongest System

Chapter 226: Rocky's Strategy



"Rocky?" Sophia murmured, sounding worried as she had never seen such a murderous look in Rocky's eyes, ever before.

If looks could kill then Sophia would have died a hundred deaths by now, as Rocky looked at her with nothing but pure hatred in his eyes.

"Erin…. It's time to retreat, blow up the gate behind us and trigger the signal for the Elites to blow apart the tunnel" Rocky instructed, as he placed a dagger towards the near unconscious Sophia's throat and glared fearlessly into the space ahead. Enjoy exclusive content from m-v l'-NovelBin.net

"If either of you take a single step ahead, the first one to die will be the Champion Of Poseidon….. come at us if you dare" Rocky warned, as at that exact moment, Erin triggered the blast spell he had previously placed on the other end of the prison entrance door, resulting in the prison door being blown apart open.

*KABOOM*

As soon as the prison door was blasted open, Rocky, Erin and Buhara began retreating at full speed, with the countless tier4 and tier5 experts hot on their pursuit.

[ Wind Boost ]

Buffing the trio with a temporary 3x speed boost spell, Erin ensured that the three could run at a speed on-par with the chasing experts, even if it was only for a short duration of 10 seconds, as retreating during those ten seconds was crucial to their survival.

Erin ran with all his might, while Buhara ran with his neck posture tilted awkwardly, and finally Rocky ran with Sophia securely placed over his shoulders.

When they had covered a distance of about 100 meters in roughly 7 seconds, Rocky started to feel the enemies get extremely close to them, as he could feel their killing intent sharply on his back, however, he did not turn to check even for a split second.

'102…103…104…'

Counting his steps with full focus instead, Rocky ran up till his step count reached 125, at which point he abruptly paused.

*KABOOOM*

*KABOOM*

*KABOOM*

*RUMBLE*

*RUMBLE*.

Suddenly, the entire tunnel structure started to collapse and the entire tunnel, precisely up till the point where Rocky was standing, got covered in dirt and rubble, burying all his pursuers beneath at least 20 feet of dirt and rubble.

*Pant*

*Pant*

*Pant*

Panting heavily, Rocky wiped off the beads of sweat from his forehead, as he awaited the elites to take action on the next phase of the plan.

*Kyaaa*

*War noises*

*Spells*

Knowing full well that the chasing enemies were not dead and were just buried under rubble, Rocky did not relax for even a single second.

Retreating swiftly, he ran towards the same farmers hut they had entered from, while the other elites, who were waiting for the tunnel to collapse on the surface, began launching fierce attacks into the rubble to kill the trapped Olympian soldiers.

( A couple days ago, at the True Elites Guild Headquarters )

"Wait, wait, wait…. Go over your plan once again, because I'm having trouble understanding your proposal–" Karna said, clutching his head in condusion as he could not understand what Rocky was proposing?

"It's very simple, guildmaster, let me break it down for you again" Rocky said, as he pointed towards the map of Floor 21.

"This here is the farmers hut where I'm supposed to meet Sophia" Rocky began as he pointed towards a small hut on the map in the middle of an isolated forest.

"It's about 2 kilometers away from the outer palace wall.

And the distance between the inner prison and the outer prison wall is yet another 100 meters" Rocky said, as he pointed out everything on the map and began marking the walls and the distances with a red marker.

"This means that the tunnel in question which runs from the inner palace all the way till this farmers hut, goes along a straight path–" Rocky said, drawing a straight line over the map of floor 21 as he pointed out the exact pathway where the tunnel was located.

"If my understanding of the situation is not wrong. Sophia will betray me within the inner palace area of the tunnel, right near the exit.

However, if I can somehow turn the situation around and escape through the tunnel.

Then I'm 99% sure that the enemy's best experts will try and chase me down" Rocky said, as he circled the area of the secret tunnel that ran underneath the floor 21 palace, where he expected the ambush to take place.

"Now my plan is to turn their ambush against them.

If I can draw them into the tunnel pathway, then my understanding is that we can lace the top of the tunnel pathways with strong explosives, which if used can cause the tunnel to collapse" Rocky said, as he circled the region of the tunnel which started around 200 meters away from the outer wall of the palace and stretched for about 1.8 kilometers towards the farmers hut.

"Once we arrive on floor21, my plan is to go and meet Sophia alone. While the rest of the Elites lace up the explosives along this path.

Then at my signal, I want them to blow apart this region of the tunnel, which will successfully trap all the pursuers within and make it easy for us to kill them.

Once we do so, we can dig up the safe region of the tunnel, near the palace walls to re-enter the tunnel to move into the prison, however, we will now have neutralized their ambush and will have a free run inside" Rocky explained, as he presented a very risky strategy to Karna.

"Your plan is genius Rocky, however, the execution of this plan is easier said than done.

If you mess up even slightly, then this plan can end up in either you being buried within the tunnel alongside your pursuitants, or them catching you before you can draw them to the right areas.

I don't think you can succeed in executing this plan" Karna said, however, Rocky strongly disagreed with this assessment.

"Maybe I would have been unable to execute this plan alone, however, with Erin by my side I have the confidence to see this plan through" Rocky said confidently, as he gave Erin, who was seated beside him a big thumbs up.
