*Few hours earlier*
*Grey POV*
After passing the first and second trial with my group
I met with Emily and Claire in the third trial
Now I am trying to get the cores for all the members of the camps
We made teams of four people to get the cores for each other
Right now I am in the building we made into a camp planing our next step
Slam
"We need a more teams to get through this trial"
"Calm down Keith" I said
"How can I calm down!! My teams need at least one fifty more cores to get through this trial"
"That is way we are here now calm down" Claire said
"Tch"
Keith sat down on the chair
"Keith has a point we need cores and there isnt much time to get them"Seth said
Sigh
I looked at the system window in the air
[3 hours and 32 minutes remaining...]
"This is a race against time" I said
"Gather the members and tell them to get ready"
"Yes I knew you would do it" Keith said
Sigh
"Go now"
They all stood up and exist the room except Claire and Emily
"Are you sure about this Grey"
"Yes Emily, now get ready for the fight"
Sigh
"Whatever you say"
Emily exist the room leaving me and Claire alone
"Grey"
I looked at Claire who had a face of worry
"Stop making that face Claire"
"But you know how many people have already died we started with 570 people but now only 248 remain"
"I know"
"Let's just take the ones who have worked and go through the portal"
"I can't I promised them I would take them to the next trial"
"They don't work and contribute anything to the camp and yet you gave them your cores and now even you short on cores"
"Enough!"
"..."
"I am sorry it just that we are in the problem and there is no time to blame others and let's work together and get out of this mess"
"I just wished Alex was here to see your foolishness"
"I wish he was"
"Don't treat him like he is dead"
"Maybe he I we don't know about it"
"Sto-"
Click
My sentence was cut off by the Clark opening the door
"...looks like I came at the wrong time"
"No its alright"
"..the members who can fight have gathered"
"I see,I will be right behind you now go"
"OK"
Click
Clark closed the door and walked away
"Let's go Claire"
".....No"
"What"
"I don't want to"
"Please just help me until I solve this problem"
"This is the last time I am helping you and I have a condition"
"Condition?"
"I'll tell you later"
"O-okay"
Claire went outside to get ready

-------
"Even after getting the hidden relics in the first and second trials I am not strong enough"
'I hope we have less to no casualties'
Sigh
Turning towards the door I walked out
"Grey lets go"
Claire said standing besides the door
****
The camp members were ready armed with weapons
Their eyes were on me some with hope some dread
I took a deep breath
"My fellow participants of the tutorial we have faced hardships together like no one else"
I looked at their eyes and said
"We know one another like family! We now face a wall that we cannot overcome with our own power"
"WE MUST UNITE TOGETHER AND OVERCOME THIS OBSTACLE THAT TREATHEN TO BREAK OUR BONDS!"
"SO LET'S FACE THE BEASTS THAT HINDER OUR PATH TO GREATNESS!!!"
"GREY!GREY!GREY!!!"
The members of the camp became motivated with new found strength but some now had dread in there eyes
******
BOOM!!
Grey looked at the explosion happening at the front of the group he lead
He held a spear made of light in his hands ready to throw it
Throw
it flew very fast and killed the group of skulls at the front
Huff huff
Grey looked at his hand and muttered
"Only three left.."
[Starlight]
Rank - A
Allows the user to make construct made of white light with mana
-------
Gathering his strength he raised his hand
Large amount of mana gathered in his hand before turning into white light
It turned into a large spear
"Spread out!" Grey shouted
He released the spear into the horde of skulls killing them instantly
[Leveled up]
[Leveled up]
"Grab the cores!We don't have much time"
The members hurriedly grabbed the cores on the ground
Grey was now on his knees as he used to much mana
"Grey! Are you okay!" Emily yelled as she crouched besides him
"I am alright" He said
[2 minutes and 3 seconds remaining...]
"Go through the portal NOW!!!"I commanded the people
They nodded and ran to the direction of the portal
"Let's go" I said to Emily and Claire who was standing on my left side
They carried me to the portal and we went through the portal just in time
Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[Times is up .... Remaining ones have failed the trial ]
[Those who are unworthy will face annihilation]
