The Player's System

Codes

The Duke would not spare anyone siding with the Runners. Team members were fearless. They could not bother whether the natives were afraid of the Duke or the Duke was scared of the King.

For them it was the second level of the portal that was quite fancy and the developer dragged medieval era in it. This was opposite to the first level where they were afraid of the poison and the creatures.

They could expect something new in the third level for sure. Presently they were in the thick forest and waiting for the soldiers to appear. "It would take time. They will first get permission from Duke. The Duke can only send the spies leading the soldiers." The man spoke.

He was quite familiar with the way the government worked in the Itaten Farm. He was not some elder or slave instead loyal with the dead elder. The way elder was killed ruthlessly made him hate Duke and the king.

Junan looked in the thick forest. It was impossible for troops to signature them from much distance. They could potentially think a way to leave toward the Flame tower and also ask about the codes. These two things were important in this task. The interrelated concept might have confused however knowing that they were constantly moving toward the right direction made them alert.

Team members were working with best collaboration ever. Their weapons were able to confront new levels of the challenges. Their increasing hp finally brought another stat in front of the interface. Junan casually threw glance on this stat and got surprised.

It was not present earlier. There was golden dot in the status bar. It means they earned something from their stable hp. At least it was what Junan estimated. He clicked on it but the info was not available yet. So he could not figure out what was the purpose of this new stat.

He was hundred present sure that other team members must have collected this stat status.

Only future advancement could let him understand the usability of this gift stat by the portal. It was golden in color that means it worth much more than the normal hp.

Team head looked at the slave and the new person who they rescued. From their facial expressions they did not look like deceiving instead they seemed betting their lives for some reason. Though slave explained the reason behind however it was due to the book of detection replacement.

Junan could not tell why in this task 'Living Clues' were sent for the team instead of the book of detection. He sighed and spoke, "Do we need codes to enter in the Flame tower as well?" he asked this direct question knowing that codes were still in need.

"The Flame tower is currently locked and the three codes could open it. Without codes the horrible security of the tower would kill whoever tried to enter inside." Plain looking human spoke. He was wearing the most common dress of this era.

He was definitely using this dress to hide his identity of loyal of an elder. "Unfortunately two codes are killed by the Duke. And the third is hidden near the tower. He thought that Duke would not be searching around the tower so he could hide there. Until now his prediction came true. The Duke is busy killing elders and loyals." The person explained.

From his words team head got to know that the codes were actually humans. New wonders were opening up in front of them. Jake was on alert because team head ordered him to immediately fire if any soldier appeared. He also listened the person. Jake regretted because he could have stolen those codes before they get killed but it was already mess of situation for the team to survive from the soldiers.

The task panel was changing options for him. In case he wanted traces from the task panel he would be given threat along. The threat of punishment in case he could not fulfill the task under the time limit sometimes it was easier to fulfill the task buy giving logical explanation however when other team members were busy tackling other things then the panel task could delay.

It would create problems for him. Till now he did not face punishment nevertheless he did not want to go through it.

The Flame tower the target right now. They were probably going to tackle those useless soldiers in their way. For now they were concerned for the completion of this task. It was getting time. Every clue was leading toward other.

It made it multifarious job in one go. None of the team members asked question. They were trying to compose for the upcoming challenges. "What we will do since two codes is killed? We cannot enter in the Flame tower without them right?" Albert spoke concerned.

His question was straightforward and however it was simple for team head to answer. "We will be facing horrible security as mentioned by the person. Get ready your weapons for the unseen. In case we suddenly get trapped in the circle of the security each one of you would do his best no matter if the formation is yet to confirm." Junan pre-warned.

Team members understood. In such situation they divided according to the long range and short range weapons. Junan stood up to start journey. he gestured the slave, "You will go back and hide somewhere until we kill Duke or he no more search you around." Only the necessary person could walk with them.

They were runners and constantly under the watch out of the Duke. Saving natives was troublesome. The slave understood and left. He did choose better path however leaving the factory area he was caught by the soldiers.

They tortured him to tell about the Runners and their current location. The slave faced several bruises before death nonetheless he did not relate their location. He wanted runners to kill the Duke and also the King.. He was the root of evils.
