Sea Desert 2
Seventh quest
They could not comment at this demand of the book of detection. Orin stood agape. Now he felt real hatred against this profession in the portal. "What a profession to scam the players in the middle of the quest?" He blurted.
Team head did not speak to lessen his worry.
It was the task of the player to carry his profession regardless of the oddity of the demands of the profession. Junan kept looking at the increasing tides of the water. It seemed the water would reach the sand dune where they were standing currently.
Clark could only pity this player as to what would be his choice. Of course he could not let down the team members by his selfish interests. Since they were quite different type of team members gathered in one team it was highly likely that his choice should be selfless.
Orin wanted to cry but no tear came out. He looked at the indifferent actions of the team head. It was silent gesture that he should not act foolish in his choice.
The demand of the profession made him sigh deeply. He clicked on 'agree' the amount of the Exp taken for this clue was not much.
It was the difference of the portal any other game. The statistics of the professions were not correlated with the perks of the levels and the gains of the quests. They were exceptional addition in the abilities of the player.
So technically the Exp was not part of his in-game life or important hp, both were different in all senses. Still Orin was not happy. All players could use their Exp for side tasks. Well it was something new and none of them noticed it earlier. Mostly games preferred Exp for the levels. however in this portal the essence of the completed quests was adding in the golden bar.
This golden bar would proof as the lifeline of the players after the first five levels.
"Water is increasing. Hurry and ask the book of detection what is this place." Team head reminded Orin to make haste.
Orin was done buying the first clue.
The book of detection unlocked it for the player. "Sea Desert is part of Theola Quests. The longer you stay here, harder it would be to escape. The card is hidden at the middle of the sea and the desert." The book of detection closed itself after reading clue.
Albert twitched his brows because the shield could not secure all sides if the waves tried to bring them along in the water.
They could see the increasing height of the water surface.
The clue although took Exp still it was same method of riddle like hint. They got addicted so it was normal for them.
"What could be middle of the sea and desert?" Team head thought for a while. They were getting ready because of the water surface. "Currently it is troublesome to worry for the water. Why it is taking away the part of sand?" Clark asked. He put his hammer on the back preparing to swim in the water soon.
"Oh what hell is this?" Sashi looked at the nearing water and the creature. The water creature was dark in color. Adding the water and the bright light of the day the creature looked shining black shark with slightly more wings in numbers.
The water was clear and Sashi could see the creature vomiting out sand from its mouth. It was black sand.
They looked at the creature and thought to keep the weapons ready for some attack. The water surface finally reached their feet.
Ahram was not very happy with this setting of the quest. He was seriously thinking to take swimming classes during the rest days after the level completion.
Perhaps there were more quests to come where the water would be his biggest enemy to survive. For now he was looking for someone to help in swimming. Well Sashi was there to help before he could ask anyone.
The water surface reached at their neck soon. They tried to search another part of the quest area but near and far they could only see the water.
If they happened to hurry earlier they might have ran away from the water tides but it was all the same. The sea tides might have taken some time but the condition would have been same.
Team head held his sword when he saw the weird fish coming to attack him. Attacking under the water was hell impossible but the weapon could be used as the buffer. The weird fish attacked with the black sand.
The sand fell on the sword and it started melting. Junan felt awful to see this. He could only imagine what could happen if the sand fell on his body.
"Avoid black sand attack. It could give huge damage for sure." The weird fish went back after damaging the sword. He thought to use secondary weapon if the fish again attacked but it did not.
Sashi was giving helping hand so she could not stop the weird fish attack. Ahram gestured her and fell in the water. He used his blade chain to keep the creature away. The sand did not fell on the chain instead the blades damaged the upper skin of the creature.
This time was enough and Ahram lost much oxygen. Sashi jumped in the water and brought him outside.
The creature went back without second attack. Albert used his shield to keep the creature away. The shield did not get damage instead it reflected the sand attack on the black creature. It burned the creature. Surprisingly the damaged skin did not spoil the clean water instead it settled on the bottom.
After three attacks the water surface started to decrease slowly. These creatures were part of the sea desert. Because of the weird nature of the sea and desert the creatures grew up differently.. All day long when the water met the desert the creatures tried to dig out the card and bring the normality of the area but they were slow.
