The Player's System

Getting rid

They could barely manage to look at what was inside the tunnel until they got rid of the ape. Jake silently hoped that they would not have to change their plans. According to the system notification, it was necessary to kill the ape and then walk inside the tunnel. The giant ape was tired of living apparently. They wished to chase it away, however, despite putting in all their efforts they could not move the ape from its place, not even an inch. 

They kept aside their self-serving idea and focused on killing it. All types of weapons came into action one by one. "It seemed as if the ogre is not designed in a way that it could easily. The outer defence system makes the ogre is invulnerable which, unfortunately, renders all our efforts invaluable for the kill." Junan could not understand why all their weapons combined were not bringing the right amount of damage. 

This game definitely required to be played wisely not thoughtlessly, the theory was simple yet complicated at the same time. They had been using their weapons at various points and they had always worked to their benefit. 

"Is it possible that our efforts are for the wrong side?" Albert voiced his concerns.

"Ah, wait did they seriously took the ancient methods?" Orin's quivered with fear. 

He was, again, holding the Book of Detection with both of his hands as if it was the most respectable thing ever. Some strange rules were printed on the small amber coloured pages and the information was not cramped on it. Well, this time he did not read from the Book of Detection. 

He was not only an experienced gamer. In fact, he had a strange hobby of collecting the history of various games and why their developers designed them. How those games were popular and why they eventually became infamous or the gamers lost interest. There was also the information behind the concepts of every game and Orin had been reading them. He believed that one should be knowledgeable about whatever he aimed for. 

Orin was working hard for the game 'Sovereign Rulers'. Since not all of the present-day world gamers were familiar with the worn-out ideas of gaming he had to put his best foot forward with knowledge and critique. "I do not want to scare everyone. However, I strongly think that we won't be able to kill the ape from outside. It would only waste our time and effort." Orin explained.

The ogres were designed with two concepts. Balla NPC's were invulnerable from outside with minimum weak points. Realreed were vulnerable with many weaknesses. 

Orin delineated the fundamentals. It was pretty popular, even the newbie players were also taunted with the same term; realreeds. 

"Ah I see, Realreed," Junan remembered where he had heard about this term.  "I have heard this term a year ago. Some old and retired player joined the latest server in the Sovereign Rulers," 

"Are you trying to say that this level is built with the same classical concepts? And that too the Balla NPC?" Sashi concluded the summary of the discussion. 

They looked at Orin and then the team head in utter dread. 

"I am afraid. It is what it is. It would not change the fact." Junan culminated the conversation 

Now they understood why their efforts were not fruitful. "Let's suppose that it is true. In that case, we should formulate a plan accordingly." Albert looked toward the youngest player among them. Jake was listening to their conversation, attentively. When he looked towards the ape especially the face it seemed as if he was looking toward the mountain peak. 

All of their tremendous efforts until now had proved Orin's point, that they were not going it in the right way. They now had to find a solution.

"Perhaps we can throw some ammunition in the mouth and blast it?" he suggested. He was making an account of the magnitude of strength of his weapons.

Junan blinked taken aback by the brilliancy of the idea. This idea was plain and simple. They did not need to shuffle their intellect and fork out a better plan anymore. 

"I have no qualm. This idea is worth giving it a try." Junan surveyed the colony. There was nothing noticeable other than the lazy ogre. The broken cottages were similar to the previous colony. They all admired the suggestion. Earlier they were only attacking but now they were critically observing the ape. Reaching near the big mouth was definitely going to be a challenge. 

"I can climb this mountainous ape." The gofer profession had some unique controls and the players granted with this profession could easily do this task. He, especially, had a ride skillset in case the team wanted to send him to the other part of the colony or the district. There was a chain hanging on his shoulder. He was going to use this chain to climb. 

Their plan was to port the young player near the big mouth and then cause the hideous disturbance for the ape. Hopefully, it would open its eyes and yawn, then they would let the plan unfold. They agreed on the various tasks given to them. He, Gofer, ran steadily using developer based skill and climbed, though he flipped once and slipped thrice. 

Gofer threw the chain so that the young player could climb up. The ogre was not moving despite knowing that the players were silently climbing or whistling some orders. 

The other players were running errands for whoever needed help. Orin fastened the chain around the waist of the young player. They knew that he cannot use both hands in the game. They might have kept mocking him till the end of the level however the young gamer proved his worth and presence. 

Gofer pulled the chain. Jake felt the giant ape breathing and he swayed with it. If the gofer had not been taking hold of the chain Jake might have blown in the distance. 

Slowly the chain was pulled and Jake reached the shoulder. The dangerous part of the plan was stuffing the ammunition and then firing it. For this Jake thought to use all five grenades. It will reduce the risk of using ammunition pouches and bullet fire. There was a possibility that Jake might miss the pouch. They decided to follow the less risky plan. In-game weapons could not be exchanged for use of any in-game action especially the weapons selected by the player. This restriction was limited among the team. The players could use the robbed weapons. 

Junan disturbed the lazy ape like a haphazard mess that he is, and that stupidity stood up contrary to their plans.
