Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

(Leo's POV)

Leo snickered non-stop, when he perfectly timed his last-known location to be the road, when he wasn't actually traveling by the road anymore.

In reality, he was traveling through the forest; however, to misguide his opponents, he made this perfectly timed maneuver appear as though he was still on the road at the precise time his location was revealed, to leave a false trail that would waste the time and resources of those who pursued him.

'Take that! Fools–' he thought, as he started to venture deep into the forest again, his mind recounting the events of the last half hour, where he duped not one, but hundreds of adventurers, multiple times over.

Initially, the trail that Carter and the other members of his guild picked up, had not been the wrong one, however, with the forest trees casting long shadows to hide in, when the group did eventually catch-up to them, all that Leo and team did to avoid them was to hide in the shadows of the large trees, standing with their weapons at the ready in-case someone did notice them.

However, to their fortune, just as their own trail ended, an overlapping deer trail began, which accidentally led Carter and his men on a wild goose chase, giving Leo and team ample time to move in a different direction.

It was undoubtedly a fortunate event for them to be able to ditch the closest mobs hunting them, as with them gaining a slight room for movement, Leo managed to mislead the world about his next move, playing an elaborate prank on them all.

"TheBoss is moving down the road! He's dead meat now!"

"This is Mojo from the Hunters guild! We have 12,000 members blocking the road 'TheBoss' is moving down, he will surely not pass us!"

"This is Frazier from the Medallion Guild, we have 7,000 men just a kilometer away from TheBoss's last known location! He will surely not slip away under our watch"

"It's finally time for the rebel scourge to die! With so many men encircling him, there's no way that 'TheBoss' survives…."

In the spirit of cooperation, the entire server coordinated their assault on 'TheBoss', as those who were near his location, looked for any breaking news on the forums, incase they needed to move, while the rest watched on for the juicy live updates.

At this point, the entire righteous faction was awaiting the news of TheBoss's downfall, however, even though there were hundreds of thousands of men actively hunting him down, nobody could get a hold of him.

While the Medallion and Hunter guild members kept looking for him down the road, Leo casually gave them the slip by moving through the forest, as although the guild members waited patiently for the next couple hours, their arms drawn to a ready, they never saw even the shadow of 'TheBoss'.

(Two hours later, the global forums)

"Where is 'TheBoss'? Why have we received no new updates?"

"What is the latest development? @fraizer, if you have been wiped out, at least let the rest of us know–"

"Hey everyone, this is Ali from the Medallion Guild, and I'll just like to brief you all on what's going on... We have been waiting for 'TheBoss' down the paved trail for the past 30 minutes, but we have not seen or heard him. So we are still waiting..."

"Awww Man….. We from the hunter guild have blocked the road a couple kilometers after you guys, if the Medallion Guild does not encounter 'TheBoss', we probably won't either…."

"What is 'TheBoss' doing? Is he too scared to move? Is he really going to stay in one place until we actively find him? Or has he started to retreat?"

"I mean, it has to be retreat, because 'TheBoss' is definitely not going to risk going deeper into our territory especially when he knows that things will only get harder from here on out.

I think he has ruffled enough feathers, but this is as far as he goes"

[ Global Notification :- Last known location of 'TheBoss'.

123.456.789N

223.455.777E ]

Just as the conversations on the global forums intensifies, with people speculating about TheBoss's retreat. The system dropped his location once more, only to shock the world with where he was.

"According to this location he's still on the paved road trail! What the hell is the Medallion and Hunter guild doing? He's already bypassed them both and is 33 kilometers from the huge town of Bilspread"

"Hahaha! TheBoss walked right past these foolish guilds, but they could not even detect him! He probably used his invisibility skill to slip past them and might even have danced and shown them the finger as he did"

"The performance by the Medallion and Hunter guild is actually disgraceful, these two have wasted the time for all of us…."

"Guys! At Least we know now that he's heading for Bilspread. Reinforce the town! Let's ensure that 'TheBoss' cannot escape Bilspread without a fight!"

"Cover the town floor in wheat flour! Doing so forced TheBoss to fight in the small village of Duffledem a few hours ago.

If not he will just use his invisibility to slip through…."

The server erupted with criticism for the Medallion and Hunter guild, as they were labeled as being 'incompetent' for letting TheBoss slip by.

However, the focus quickly shifted from their incompetence on what to do next, as analysts tracked TheBoss's last ventured path and deemed that he was headed for Bilspread, which was extremely close to his last disclosed location.

With this message from the analyst, receiving 120 thousand likes and 70 thousand re-shares, the post instantly became super viral, as many players began coordinating on how they could take 'TheBoss' down when he arrived at the town.

With one player suggesting the use of flour, the players of Bilspread began raising the houses of NPCs and ruthlessly stealing their grain stores, as they covered the streets of the massive town with flour, in an event that horrified the NPC's who witnessed their wasteful actions.
