The Player's System

Stop killing

They looked at him and confirmed the validity of his words. "Someone with the best sprint skill should look around where we can find the third broken gate." Junan ordered. Team members looked at Clark. He was best at sprint. Clark took the charge to search the broken gate.

Junan and others walked around to find move out. They could feel that the ogres were in the surrounding however it was strange that they did not attack first. The players were tense and the situation was not in the favor. They were blind where they should head up right now.

The presence of ogres was threat. It was burdensome to think what they were waiting for. They were waiting for the time to pass and the gate disappear. This was only chance to satisfy the bosses, the eyeless Serpent and the gruesome Cobra Lord. As soon as the players crossed third gate, they will reach the den of the Cobra Lord where the second heart was placed under its safety.

With the destruction of the second heart, the Cobra boss would die down. It depended what the players would choose either to kill the Cobra boss first or destroy the second heart.

"I will go slaughter them in my way." Hammer boy gritted his teeth and hurried to capture the glaring ogre. He cleared bushes and reached the said ogre. The ogres also attacked however in the end it turned in to smoke. Hammer boy noticed and uttered, "At least now their dead bodies would not stain the ground."

Others did not react on his comments. They knew that he was always enthusiastic for blind pursuit of npc\'s. Hammer boy rarely get interested when it was time for sober decisions or suggestions. Half of them were using means to search while other half were clearing.

The killing of the ogres was not good. The dead bodies of the ogres were mixing in the air and adding poison in the air. If this continued then soon the available air would get polluted with the poison the players would eventually die. Jake was constantly keeping note on the changes occuring.

He tried to figure out the reason behind the changes. Finally the system gave warning. His hp was stable and it was impossible to figure out something earlier. The players were so much engrossed in slaughtering or venturing that they did not feel the slow activities.

[Attention: The poison level is increasing.]

[You will soon suffer asphyxiation. The suffocation would take your life in next few minutes.]

[Leave the area or cross the gate]

Jake felt that the warning actually increased the changes in the surrounding. Now he was supposed to find out the reason behind this increase of poison. Nothing was off the track other than the ogres turning in to smoke.

Revelation stuck him and he shouted, "Stop slaughtering ogres." He ran to tell others. Junan heard his voice. As soon as he shifted attention, he was able to sense something off. "The dead ogres are adding poison in the air." Jake shouted again.

They stopped immediately. They also felt short breaths however they blamed it for using weapons or the killing activity. Now that they realized their shortcoming, they regretted for mass Kill. Already half of the air got severely poisoned and they felt suffocation.

"Hurry and leave the area." Jake spoke in the middle of suffering. The team players were confused what to do to save lives. They were willing to listen any order from this young player. Clark guided them where did he find the signs of third gate.

They ran and ignored the glaring ogres. Now they understood why ogres were not attacking first. They had been trapping them. Clark led and left the first area. Half of the players lost half of hp because of the poison. They were unable to stand the suffocation.

"Thankfully the team members survived. We might have had wiped out if not for Jake. This friend of us saved the day. No one should kill any ogres until we leave. Just throw them aside if they attack first." Junan gave warning. The distance of the gate was double compared to the previous one.

Currently it was not guarded or they could not see anyone around. "The eyeless Serpent has planned smartly but we cannot accept defeat. I am sure it is hidden and keeping control of everything. Everyone should ready. The time it appears, no one should immediately attack instead focus a path before attacks. With our attacks the ogres would add in poison so be sure of your steps." Junan reminded.

Jake also nodded because it was feasible. They could all at once attack when the destination was right in front. They would follow the divided responsibilities to meet the full proof plan.

The third broken gate was no different from the first one, only that Jake was told that crossing this gate prior to others could give him double the cumulative Exp of the previous two. He was excited as well as worried. This would be third time that he would exceed from others.

This time Hammer Boy was keeping eyes to cross the gate prior in order to check the difference. He was sure that the younger player wanted Exp however the amount was unknown. Jake did not notice his actions. He was trying make perfect plan before other could suggest anything.

His words could get the approval of the team head only if it gave real time benefits. "No one is here. This is the indication that my previous words have worth. Sashi your target is the serpent and the shingle. Albert you will proved cover. Orin will stand in the first row. Clark would lead the path. Jake will remain with me. Hammer boy should cover the left side." Junan divided their tasks.

Hammer boy was not happy with it however he did not speak and thought to wait for the time being.. Jake was not happy because this way he would be third team member to enter inside the broken gate.
