The Player’s System - Chapter 267

Solved

Albert was not worried about the tough riddle. It was actually simple however he was deliberating over the possibility whether this riddle has something to do with the unfinished script.

“It is possible if the dagger is the loved one.” Albert answered the riddle. The floating words disappeared immediately. With just one attempt the player was able to answer. It confirmed that the players could search the second part of the unfinished script.

The players eased up after the influence of the haunted object disappeared. Junan heaved sigh of relief. Now he was more than sure, “This riddle is some way related with the unfinished script. Perhaps the king’s queen killed the king, he might have tried to write it down but he could not do so and fell dead. If so then all of you should think a possible sentence that could depict the scenario.” Junan spoke enthusiastic.

This was strange yet applicable. The team members looked at the script then thought what had been the circumstances of the king.

“The flower of the east is after my life.” Ahram suggested. They looked at the script. Although it was not perfect second half of the script however it turned the red words in to blue.

It brought some hope that they were near to solve it.

Jake was now saving the clue for the weapon ability. He was sure that the team could solve the script now. It was no more necessary to ask the task panel. After completion of the task, the most important was to get the ability. In case the task panel refused to give clue in the times of haste then the opponent team would take chance and get it.

There were two main focus for each team. One was to complete the task and later get the subsequent ability. Jake decided to keep the clue saved for the time being.

The team members again mulled over the script. Albert was able to understand the sequence between riddle the unfinished script. He took this type make careful and accurate connection between the expected half sentence.

“The flower of the east excused love to stab the king.” Albert spoke the other half of the script. He was slightly confused whether it would work or not.

Something invisible wrote the second half of the script and it started burning. The words were according to the real script. The lingering aura vanished as the paper burned.

They saw the half destroyed subsection.

…

The first and second team immediately felt the changes in the surrounding. They didn’t take much time to know that third team completed the task. Now they were ready to rush for the ability announcement.

Most of the tasks were tough so it was expected that only one team could complete them however the ability was the sole purpose that they could glare each other to get it.

There was announcement soon.

“Spear Storm is being released. This ability is hidden in the Script hall. The ability is in the form of script. The one who get the ability would be strongest among the team.”

They heard the announcement. From the name of the ability, Albert jumped with shock. It matched with his weapon. Since it was their earlier appearance in the portal at the start of first level, they mixed few main weapon choices.

Albert was Shieldman in true sense and hold the strength of Shieldman while he picked spear as his second weapon due to the reason the shield can only give defence in the crises. The second reason that he liked spear as the player of other games.

Originally the team head of the team took the profession of Spearman however Junan never used spear in any game. It was confusion which lasted to this level. Now that they conscious about the professions and the related choices, they decided to soberly keep the weapons according to profession. Also they were eager to change professions and relocate.

Now that Albert was using spear, it was his responsibility to get the ability of the weapon so that when the profession got relocated, the other player could take benefits. It was good that the ability was present in the same hall.

It was time for Jake to get the clue. According to the announcement the ability could make one player as strongest so it should not fall under the hands of the opponents.

Jake asked for the clue.

[Spear Storm: The ability to create ten’s of spears and turned the battle upside down.]

[It is in the script hall]

[The host could take it from the first scrip placed in this hall.]

[Precaution: It is in the joint reception where the first team is shuffling documents. Go get it before they see the lit title of the document.]

[Note for the Host: Try not to be smart since you are already.]

Jake read the last line. He understood why task panel commented. The task panel was merged with his brain and its actions naturally it was able to read what ran in his head.

“Here the scripts are not in proper condition. Let’s see in the other sections.” Jake spoke in hurry and ran toward the first section where the documents were placed in bundles.

These were not extraordinary documents according to the staff so they were placed in bulk. Albert saw that Jake was run toward specific location he followed behind.

If not specific location he might have ran around to search. Jake was getting less careful about his actions knowing that others were now getting habitual with his strange actions.

The others saw both of them running toward the first section so they joined. The first team happened to notice how madly the third team was rushing toward them. It was as if wind storm was ready to destroy first section. Clark was now running in front to scare other players.

Jake ran toward the first piles of documents. He shuffled them.. His eyes fell at the lit title. Two words were shining, ‘Spear Storm’
