The Player's System

Save shingle

The battleground was giving out charred smell of the dead bodies. The blasts did damage on huge scale. There was hope that the remaining enemies were no more threat for the team. Last few troops were trying to organize and surround the players. However it was no simpler to move on. 

This impairment in the army of the eyeless serpent resulted commotion for the time being. They were running around, shouting something perhaps scared of the events nonetheless their horrible voices were unbearable. Team members were trying to cover their ears. The culprit was nowhere. 

Jake held his head down on the roof top so that no one could spot him. The creatures were sent to kill the culprit. The grenades and the ammunition were on cool down only the small gun was available presently. 

The huge covered area got empty and the team members were running toward the remaining creatures. Sashi focused on the serpent. She did not want to disappoint young player since he handed her this responsibility. The eyeless serpent was greatly shocked with the blasts; it reduced the chances of success. They could not move back for the reason that they were already standing on the edges of the third street. 

They were limited under the third street because it was the assigned area for this serpent. Junan was familiar this type of restrictions. Few points were dead end for players and other points were restricted for the ogres and their bosses. Four of them could see the endless mountains of dead bodies and they were between them. 

Their feet were sinking in the mix of blood and green liquid. "The kid did his job perfectly. If we had had kept the mass kill, it was entirely impossible to carry on till the end. See this ocean of dead's." He pointed while running. 

Other three admitted the fact. Initially Orin was not in favor of keeping the little kid with the team. He once pointed that if the team head stop to cover little kid then he would immediately get killed by the ogres and the team would be able to get rid inexperienced player. 

"What do you say Orin?" Junan saw him silently running toward the rest of enemies and asked. "I was wrong back then; every player is treasure in this team. Now I understood." Orin answered grinning with some embarrassment visible. 

Ahram was following behind with the shovel on his shoulder. He was alert since the ogres were scattered the threat of the ambush was high. As soon as he noticed few ogres trying to reach from behind, Ahram halted with a quick turnaround and smacked the shovel on the head. 

The first fell and then came the second. He was like hero of some fantasy, perhaps his game controls were at the extraordinary level else the current moves were so much demanding especially when the player was doing several tasks all at once. His job was to stop all those ogres before they could throw bladed and other weapons at them. 

In few breaths they covered huge distance. Few of the crawling and near to death ogres tried to capture Junan and others. They used their weapons to smack them in the pool of dead's. Sashi was on her go. She was trying to figure out the next steps of the serpent. The serpent was immensely hopeless in the present situation. 

Sashi knew that the situation could force the serpent in doing something which could damage the precious shingle. The serpent was thinking to use every bit of saved breath from the shingle and hurt at least half of players. Now with the changed circumstances the priority also changed. Injuring all of the team members was impossible in the current picture. 

"Wait before you use the stone." Sashi murmured. She chose different direction in order to reach the range without coming in to notice of the serpent. The serpent was forcing ogres to stop the players. It was angry because the previous bragging in front of the Cobra Lord went to waste when confronting players. 

The demise of the third street was obvious. Serpent wanted to put little bit of effort before using the shingle. The vessel vomit out the smoke so that the ogres should not slack or runaway. Few of them saw the sudden fall of situation and thought to escape. They escaped in various directions where the neutral creatures were hiding. 

Neutral creatures were not part of the defending gangs. They never battled against the cruel rule of the Python and by no means had they fought against it. For this reason they were called neutral creatures. The chaos in the battleground was enough to speak out who would win in the end. Sashi was unable to find suitable place because with the blasts many cottages got destroyed. 

Now there was nothing to remain hidden before the attack. She was on short notice to take the shingle seeing the agitated movements of the serpent. The signs were obvious that the serpent was not satisfied with the present scenario. It wanted to burn away everything along with players. 

Junan and other reached in the last part of the street. They again started their mass kill, this time no more collaborative instead scattered because the enemies were also dispersed. Jake sneaked through the roof to check the situation. After taking look at the battleground his eyes fell at the eyeless serpent. Jake wide opened his eyes and tried to locate the girl. It was time to take the shingle at any cost. 

All efforts would go to waste if they lost the shingle. The importance of the shingle was no more hidden. The last battle with the boss depended on these three shingles to keep them stand firm in front of the boss. Jake finally spotted the girl; she was rushing toward the right side of the street.

"Perhaps she wanted perfect location before attack." Jake murmured. Sashi reached at the broken cottage near the last part of troops where the serpent was standing in the middle. She aimed the arrow.
