The Player’s System - Chapter 281

Pin Down

They stood at some distance to talk why these team members were not moving. Junan could see first team however he ignored them. There was nothing that they could do against Ahram.

Considering this Junan put blind eye at them. In fact he was anticipating some drama after the opponent team faced similar situation. He saw that one of their team member carried chain as his weapon.

“I wish to go and see them getting kicked.” He muffled his laughter.

….

The first team found it strange however they took it as the arrogance of the third team, “See they are confident that two players can get the ability with ease. We should also check what’s going on.” He gestured his players.

“I think the third team would attack us from behind.” One of the team member expressed his concern.

“They are acting indifferent. Half of us will go inside and take a look.” First team head left three players to keep notice about the sneak attack of the third team.

They entered inside the hall. Ahram remain bent in order to create solid plan to overcome problem. In the meantime first team entered. They saw several ice pieces of the chains. “Such chain portions could exist, it is wonder in itself. I never saw such ability. Can anyone predict its characteristics?” Team head asked.

They were speechless. All of them took the ice pieces as the ability that they were searching. “I don’t know the characteristics however it is apparent that this ability could make sure our survival. It is strongest in my eyes.” The team member replied. He was holding chain and knew that luck brought him here to capture the ability.

He extended his hand and it touched the icy portion of the chain. As he tried to capture it, few icy portions came flying and slammed on his cheeks. It was hundred times painful compared to the chest attack.

The player was pushed against the wall. His cheeks started burning with the pain. Two scars make it bleed as well. The team head got shocked. “What’s wrong. Is it the ability? Why it is attacking?” As he wide opened his eyes, only then he noticed Ahram in the hall.

Ahram stood up, “What do you take it? You need some bashes to bring back your sanity. Why not capture the ability and judge?” Ahram challenged.

For many moments he kept thinking plan but all in vain. The appearance of the first team brought some hope. Now he wanted to give it a try and let them capture the ability.

The opponent team leader gritted his teeth. He was more than sure that all team members from the third team have their screw loose.

“Why not since I am here.” He replied walking near the icy portion. As he tried to capture it, several portions slapped on his face one by one. The plight didn’t end there. The icy portions swirled around his head to give some colder massage.

Ahram coughed. He was worried about the reluctance of the ability.

The other players also tried. “Hell why it is attacking? What type of ability it is? It is giving damage.” A player shouted with annoyance. His face was stinging with pain.

They were desperate to get the ability. The player fell on the ground with slaps. He cursed this ability several times. His shouting reached outside of the Hall.

The rest of three members heard scream so they entered inside the hall to take a look.

They thought that perhaps the opponent was attacking, they rushed to attack Ahram. Meantime ice portions came floating. Direct slaps fell on their cheeks to stop them from creating any trouble.

The first team could not understand why they were being slapped. The reason was simple, they interrupted the ability the deserving player.

Only the player with the relevant weapon could step ahead and unlock the ability. The other players were enemies in front of the ability.

All of the players in the opponent team tasted the slaps of the ability. They were once again ready for last attempt.

No matter how differently they captured or used weapon to get the ability, it still slapped them. In fact half of them were thrown against the wall. They were no more in the condition to continue this bashing.

“We should leave this hall. F*k this ability.” The team head of the first team yelled with swollen face.

Sashi remained silent to see the ongoing struggle. It helped her understand the difference of the ability.

Ahram saw them leaving the hall. Their struggle was enough to let him know that attack would not give him face. Now he was looking at the ice portions of the chain. It resembled with his weapon without any doubt.

“I rather use my weapon as the support. This ice has shape while I have weapon. There is no harm if I try.” Ahram took deep breath. He was not ready to face the shame of slaps.

He picked one corner of his weapon and brought in front of the ice portion. The warm chain absorbed the ice portion immediately.

He was stunned. The ice portion had been creating trouble earlier. “Is it already tamed?” He murmured unsure. He repeated his action and absorbed second portion in the separate part of the chain.

“I think the ice portion is the pair of the weapon but it does not live separately. Why I didn’t notice the name itself. The ability is called ‘Cold Chain’ while I have seen the tough warmth of the chain. It is fairly relatable.” As he evaluated, his eyes lit up with the shock.

The weapon had the portions ranging till twenty feet. Minimum 30 portions were in the design. And the thirty ice portions were absorbed in the chain. It unlocked the second part of the ability.

His hands felt the cold aura and the freezing chills. He was glad to have such unique weapon and the ability.

A box lit up and the real lock of the ability appeared.
