The Over-Break System

Chapter 490 R-1 Swarm (8)

-Congratulations!! You're Team is Victorious in the Round One Event: Swarm.-

-Both of the members of your competitor team have been eliminated.-

-Would you like to conclude your Event as Victors or take a shot at the National Record.-

-Swarm Event National Record: 3 Hours 42 Minutes, Wave 19, 0 Kills.-

-Exit/Continue.-

The notifications were like the sweetest of music to Cynrik's ears, and his mood went from startled due to the sluggish feeling overwhelming his body to overly excited.

[Well, it looks like the W is ours, Brancie, I will ask this on principle alone, but are you good with continuing, or do you want to stop here.] Leaving the choice in Brance's hands for the first time, Cynrik observed the blue text box floating in his vision.

Weighing his options, Brance felt as if he stood before a massive chasm, one that, to cross, he would need to burn a lot of energy and jump. On one side was the safe route, where all he needed to do was say no, and Cynrik would accept it, albeit not without complaining.

While on the other side was an uphill battle that would result in him and Cynrik showing off more than they were comfortable. Taking two more seconds to think over his decision, Brance readied himself by gripping the hilt of his greatsword.

[Although I know we will more than likely regret this decision, let's do this shit.] Brance said while tilting his head down a fraction and smiling in an overly adventurous manner.

[Atta boy Brancie, all restraints are dropped, do what you need to for survival. We only need to make it through seven more rounds and murk one Chimera to break the record.]

Cesar: "And in a stunning upset, VSFA has secured victory in the first event. I am sure quite a few people gambled their money on Romeoville, but if you bet on the underdog, your return was definitely substantial." Clapping loudly in excitement, Cesar happily congratulated VSFA while wishing the Romeoville Tier-3 team well.

It was never easy to lose, even more so in your first round. But there were still two more events that would allow Romeoville to mount a comeback. Even so, at best, it would force a Tie-Breaker situation, also known as a Team-Fight, where five competitors from each team would duke it out for an additional ten points to secure victory.

In contrast to the bubbly act of her colleague, Roni was perfectly silent as she stared unblinking at the monitor showing Cynrik and Brance, who had yet to move after receiving the Win notifications.

Roni: "Cesar shut up and look at the monitor; it appears VSFA hasn't accepted their win yet." She calmly stated and reached over to smack the hyper man beside her in the back of his head.

BANG

Cesar's head bounced off the commentary desk as Roni put too much force behind her hit, sending him flying backward before he caught himself and panicked.

Cesar: "Owie, ow, ow, what the heck Roni, why you hit so hard?" Putting up a comical front, Cesar played off his injury and followed Roni's extended arm to the monitor she was pointing at.

Roni: "They wouldn't, right?" Roni asked no one in particular.

However, right at the moment, all the lights in the studio flashed in red before angling downward on the two commentators like spotlights, causing both Roni and Cesar to flinch in their seats as a loud alarm sounded off.

"ANNOUNCEMENT, ANNOUNCEMENT, A TEAM HAS CHOSEN TO ADVANCE AND ATTEMPT TO BREAK THE NATIONAL RECORD IN THE SWARM EVENT!"

The announcement played on not only every HoloTv and device showing VSFA but a ticker tape scrolled across every stream, announcing that someone was going for a record.

All across the nation, billions of people switched off the broadcast they were watching and tuned in to VSFA, where the sight of Cynrik and Brance standing valiantly with their weapons at the ready, staring down a horde of High-Tier-3 Chimeras could be seen.

Roni: "Welcome, everyone tuning in for the first time this Competition; I won't bother with introductions as there are more pressing matters. For decades, the Swarm Event Record has held firm, and over the years, fewer and fewer Competitors have even bothered trying to break it.

Beside Roni, Cesar tossed aside his usual playful attitude and was extremely professional and calm.

Cesar: "For those at home watching and are unsure of how hard an achievement it is to break the Swarm Record, let me inform you that the current time and Wave to beat is 3 hours 42 minutes, Wave 19, with zero kills. This record has stood tall for nearly 100 years."

Cesar: "The two on your screen are VSFA's Tier-3 Captain, Cynrik Jetlensr, and his brother Brance Jetlensr. Both are newly evolved Tier-3 students, and if you watched the opening ceremonies, then you should recognize them.

Roni: "As the clock on the screen indicates, presently, the Jetlensr Brothers have a time of 26 minutes and 23 seconds and are on Wave 12. Compared to the Record Winning Run, that team was at 1 hour 38 minutes by the time they reached Wave 12, so the brothers already have a significant lead."

Cesar: "Even more impressive than their Time is the efficiency that the two moved through each round, don't let their Classification as Initial Tier-3 beings fool you; these two young men are anything but average."

Cesar: "Between their insanely high-level battlefield awareness, both are experts in combat, with the younger yet bulkier brother wielding two shields that can fuse into the greatsword you see in his hands.

Roni:  "The older brother, Cynrik, moves like an assassin but fights like a master swordsman, wielding two curved shortswords; he was able to weave in effortlessly and out of his opponents, dicing them up along the way and presently, aside from manifesting Mana on his blades, he has only used two skills, both of which were able to obliterate the Wave Ten Boss single-handedly.

While Roni and Cesar brought the new viewership up to speed, those back at the Pinhurst Mansion were highly unsettled. Although they had faith that the brothers could do well and even win their event, they never made the connection that the two would be crazy enough to push for a National Record.

The usually very vocal and rambunctious Cinyah was deathly still and quiet as her eyes glimmered with tears of pride that threatened to spill over. Of everyone present, only she was 100% convinced her boys would break the record. However, like any mother, she was afraid of seeing her children injured; thus, she could not bring herself to cheer them on anywhere but in her mind.

So, Cinyah did the only thing she could; she looked to her husband for comfort by wrapping his muscular arms around her body like a blanket.

Feeling and seeing his wife's unease, Rikard smiled and planted a kiss on the top of her head before leaning forward and whispering into her ear.

"My love, if they are confident enough to push forward with the record, you know damn well Cyn has a plan. He cannot rush headfirst into a situation without scrutinizing every potential outcome. Believe in them; we have done all we can to teach them. Now it is time for them to spread their wings."
