Exaza Land 6

Twelfth quest

[The soil eaters are near. The host should not walk further from the present place.]

[The first corner is under threat.]

[You should destroy the soil eaters or get destroyed.]

Jake received the notification. His decision worked. However it was horrible to know the threat. Jake stopped and turned to look at the team head.

He was ready to speak something when Ahram hurriedly interrupted. "The ground under our feet is not stable despite that it looked plain. Something is crawling inside." He was Miner by profession and has keen senses.

"Indeed the threat is bigger." Jake added.

Team members got ready to face some monster however Jake waved his hand. "I think the enemy is not big enough to face the sword." Jake coughed not knowing what to say.

Junan looked at Albert and nodded. "The kid is right. How could bigger monster keep silently under the ground?" team head understood the notion of the words.

Slowly the insects started appearing on the ground. The insects were always hungry for the soil. Beetle like insects were crawling on the ground as if taking some sunny nape however soon half of them sensed the presence of enemies.

"Heck with them, battle with these insects?" Clark shouted. He was furious because he did not possess some long range weapon to stop the advancement of the insects.

Junan got alarmed. The availability of the weapons or the ability of the professions was not at the level to kill the tiny enemies.

The numbers were another alarming thing. Even if each team member split in tens of shadows they would not be able to stop the crawling creatures.

"Jake use ammunition and blast away this corner of the exaza land. Losing a corner is less damage rather than losing the whole land." He gave blunt order.

Team members were shocked at this order however they could relate it. If they served on any other option then it would be too late to regret for the damage.

Ammunition pouches were of long range and one could throw them at more than thirty feet distance.

It was real trial how Jake would fulfill the tough order because he needed to cover the first corner of two hundred feet. This area was densely packed with insects. As long as the bigger numbers reduced with attacks the team members would tackle rest of few stray creatures.

Jake did not need to think about this.

He was going to blast away the first ammunition pouch.

Jake took deep breath because he knew right after throwing the ammunition pouch he would run at the second place to follow the same attack.

For this he already moved and threw the ammunition pouch. Thinking twice could become risky. The insects continuously crawled to surround the humans so the danger was visible for every eye.

As soon as he threw the ammunition pouch he fired with the bullet and ran in hurry. The second attack should not lag in between the time frame.

The blast shuffled the ground upside down. The insect coated ground ruffled up since the soil eaters already weakened its base. A huge part of the ground fell in the unknown depths.

Another attack resounded in the vicinity. With the second blast the fair amount of enemies reduced. Team members were running around and killing the small insects.

Team head heaved sigh of relief with the third attack. A single mistake could have ruined their efforts. Jake hurried for the third attack while the team members split.

Junan sent two of them to search the second corner of the exaza land. Now he was sure that the riddle wanted them to clear the soil eaters from the land.

Well in terms of method he could not use better one for the time being. They were running low on everything be it time, weapon types, sources types.

The concept that they were blasting away the part of exaza land did not reduce their task perks although the method was blunt however considering the type of insects and how they damaged the first corner, it was acceptable decision.

The soil eaters significantly destroyed the richness of the first corner so the blasts eventually good thing to throw it away from the real place.

Junan confirmed that there were no more insects crawling inside or at the surface of the ground.

In the meantime Orin came back from left direction. He reached back to tell the direction of the second corner and also told the severity of the situation.

The soil eaters were nearing the forest part.

It could potentially trigger the rich soil of the land to become barren. Junan looked at the expressions of the team member and understood.

It was similar of mad rush for them to reach at the said place and stop the scums from entering in the forest.

Once they entered in the forest it would be problematic for the team members to tackle the situation.

The attacks and blasts would set the forest at fire.

The purpose of the task would get ruined and of course their task perks would be at risk.

The addition of this type of restriction was similar of headache. Every one of them wanted to rant but they were short on doing any other thing.

Jake and others hurried to reach at the location. Jake held the fourth ammunition pouch. There was only one left apart from this.

This was the second corner of the exaza land. The other team members were trying to create hindrance for the insects however it was not working.

Jake thought to use grenades in the third attack and got ready for the first and second attack. It was almost near that the ground seemed crawling. The soil eaters were unstoppable. The blast halted their advancement in the meantime.

Jake huffed because he was running madly to reach the second spot. It was his responsibility to cover most part of the area.

These blasts might have maddened the sleepy mangora monster however the active pearl gave advantage.

The exaza land has normal span of quest area so it was bound to be under the limits. The forest part consisted the rich land and the habitat of the four feet skinny humans. All other problems were triggered because of the team.

It was nearly impossible for the team members to keep check of all possible aspects of each task especially in the presence of several tasks. There were some changes happening at the stat. At the opening of every quest there come several guidelines however none of them has the time to spend on them and give a good look.

The division between the level completion time and the quests was tough. The team barely tackled the quests sometimes. Some of the quests were crooked like satan bone.

In normal games the guidelines remained same for most missions. Only one or two changes happened after many levels. Compared to this the portal levels were ever changing.

The second corner of the exaza land blasted soon. The team members retreated toward the forest because the last blast damaged the remaining plain ground.

Now only the forest was standing in front of the abyss.

Jake finished the work however he was worried. Junan already sent two of the team members toward the third corner. Now that he explored most part of the exaza land he was sure about the direction of the part however it was necessary to know the situation there.

Jake used up his available weapons.

Junan saw the expressions on his face. He twitched. "We will run and see the situation till then the cool down might end." Junan patted his shoulder.

Jake nodded and they rushed toward third corner. It was important too because the monster would return toward the seventeenth level.

Junan was sure that it would end the quest.

However the most troublesome aspect was the same.

With the completion of this quest there were still two remaining.

He looked at the time and calculated how he would split for the completion of the two remaining quests.

Jake wished that the cool down should end at the expected time. In other games the cool down has definite limits however here it was different. Once he tried to calculate the exact seconds for the cool down however it differed at various points of cool down.

The logic behind this difference or the lag was unknown however he decided to shuffle some of the pages from the guidelines in order to understand. All of the players were thinking to seriously read basic notes on the stat.

Fortunately close to fifty guides were available online. These were published to let the players of all ages learn the type of requirements of this portal game.

As predicted these guides created enough commotion.. Well at first no one bat an eye at the guides however after level one completion they bought the guides.
