The Player's System

Red Ink

Albert hurriedly grabbed the document. The ability got added in the weapon. The first team cursed endlessly. The third team snatched this ability under from their nose. The players of the first team were exhausted knowing that all documents were similar garbage for them. Their team head scolded them.

They could have picked that particular ability in case they were sharp like third team. The second team was nowhere near so they couldn't see who got the ability.

Albert received notification regarding the characteristics of the ability. 'Spear Storm could create minimum ten shadows of the main weapon, all of them bearing same strength. The ability of the weapon would increase along with levels.'

Albert read through. He was contented to have one official ability. Jake finally eased up. in the meantime rest of the team members reached there. They saw the opponent team standing on some distance. There was silence yet one could hear the whispering clash of eyes. "Good going brothers. Let's head toward the fourth haunted object." Junan looked in the eyes of the opponent and beckoned his team members.

They walked out of the script hall. It was time to get the idea and start their search anew.

The first team also walked in another direction to create distance. They were convulsing to snatch another task.

It was getting annoying for both opponent teams. The second team was unable to show some extraordinary effort. One of their team member was kicked out of the museum. The other got damage. The damage could only heal if his team could get some perks by completing some task.

It was not easy to get hold on the task because third team was big shark in the water. Currently it was tough situation for second team while first team was able to get one task at least.

....

As they found the suitable place, Orin opened the book of detection. After learning lesson from their mistake, third team no more repeated it. It was back then that they discussed their plan and the opponents tried to harm them during task.

Orin read the clue. "The fourth haunted object is the Red Ink. Clear it from the museum and get the perks. It was brought by the dead artist now it is lost in the museum. According to the staff they spotted Red Ink in the various parts of the museum at different times. No one can tell the exact location. However it should be cleared from the museum in order to let the museum become safe for the visitors."

They heard the clue. There was no exact pointer for the location which was not good sign. Normally this type of tasks take lot time. Junan thought for a while. "It is saying that the Red Ink keep changing its location. What type of Ink it could be? Oh does it means regular ink or some animal? I am not sure if the clue meant red Ink in general." He shrugged his shoulders.

After listening clue all of them thought about regular ink however after the interpretation and questions of the team head, they were literally confused.

It was actually concerning if they should search regular ink or some animal with feet.

"If we suppose it is ink then who picks it up and bring in several locations of the museum?" Albert added his questions. These questions made some sense. The questions of the team head were pro-level.

Putting aside which of the question could lead them right side of the task, they were figuring out how they should start their search. They were in the middle part of the museum.

From entrance of the museum till script hall they ran madly in the previous tasks because of the enormously big size of the museum. There were still many halls which were yet to appear.

Ten haunted objects were scattered in several halls along with the weapon abilities and the profession abilities. After visiting three halls it was clear that normal visitors were no more visiting museum however it was strange that they didn't witness any of the staff apart from the lady sitting at reception.

She didn't show any response when they walked near for the purpose to read the list of halls.

"Is it possible that we go to the lady and ask her where did the staff last seen the Red Ink?" Clark added his suggestion. They thought about the possibility. "The chances are slim however we can try." Junan shook his head and walked to begin some toil in order to complete this task. He was ready to see the lady whether she was the red ink and fooling around in the museum.

They walked toward reception. While they were walking, Orin asked out of curiosity, "How on earth some ink became haunted?" His question was not groundless yet none of them answered.

Ahram sensed that second team was trying to follow them behind. He informed team head. Junan sighed, "Wonder if they want to get eliminated on our hands. Sashi you will walk behind and attack if you see someone spying on us. Your arrow know the target." He ordered Sashi to take care opponents.

Jake remained silent. The pace of the level and the progress of the tasks was adequate so r didn't need to bother smart task panel.

Sashi immediately walked behind. She thought to keep the strict eyes at the other team from right side. The left side was part of open hall while right side had the rows of pillars. It was easy to keep under sade and target opponents.

The second team was following behind in order to see how third team would complete task. They wanted to gain some in-game experience as to how this this team was able to grasp strong hold in the live portal. Here everything was unpredictable and the tasks were fresh for anyone to prepare anything.. It was beyond question that third team has some prior knowledge of the tasks or the game.
