39 Damn serpent

Damn serpent

Before walking away Jake gestured Sashi, she did attack with his guidance and got the shingle. There was huge distance between the team members and the eyeless serpent. It was possible that half of day would use up in the blood battle. 

There were chances that the eyeless serpent might try to escape or get killed among other ogres. He could not deny third option where the eyeless serpent use the source of the shingle and render it useless for others. 

Because of all these possibilities someone should be responsible to attack and get the shingle before serpent could harm it. "Presently the distance is bigger and the weapon cannot take the target however as soon as it comes in the range, I will follow your instructions." Sashi understood why little kid walked toward her. 

"This time it is difference. The eyeless serpent perhaps knew that we are after shingle other than clearing this street so it could destroy it. Keep strict eye and attack before the serpent could resort to such decision." Jake added. Sashi furrowed her brows however did not refute. 

She was not stunned the way little kid think about the possibilities but the way he was cautious. It seemed this level was important for him despite the fact that his right arm was not working currently. She thought to ask him why he was eager to cross the level when the battle ended.     

Four team members walked and stopped in front of the troops. They were having weapons in the both hands, ready to show off their experienced years. Junan, Hammer boy, Orin and Albert four of them stood eyeing the enemies. 

Sashi and Ahram took their positions to provide cover. Jake was at some distance keeping grenade in his hand. The eyeless serpent brought out the tongue after sensing the enthusiasm of the limited number of players. 

It might have spoken some mocking words however the circumstances were tough, the orders of the Cobra Lord were strict to not take them easy. With the vessel shaking off some poison smoke the ogres leapt to attack directly. 

It was sudden however the team was ready. They started killing madly. They were expecting some of their hp fall nonetheless if they were able to get rid all the troops then it worth it. Soon the dead bodies started to pile up on the ground. Their upper clothing was getting tainted. Some of the attacks spilled blood while others spilled green liquid from the injured ogres. 

The battle ground became hellish tough for the team members as well as troops. The first and second range of the troops was busy in battling with the four players. Two troops that were on the sidelines separated to surrounded those four players. Sashi and Ahram provided cover by killing them before they could ambush. 

The third street was facing chaos and the Cobra Lord was anticipating that at least half of the team members would die in this battle. The blunt calculations were done by the last eyeless serpent. The last serpent was standing at the fourth street. 

It was preparing to welcome last injured tea members to kill them in the hell hole of fourth street. The fourth street was the territory of this serpent and it was quite confident that the remaining team members would not be able to reach last street where the Cobra Lord was present around the second heart. 

Jake walked and chose different place for his job. He was not supposed to wait at the back and see the battle without making his share. His chosen position was dangerous nevertheless it could prove suitable range for his attacks. 

The troops were never ending and the four players were super busy in mass kill however waiting for long might overwork them. The serpent was at the back of them all so even if Jake threw grenade at one of the troops, the damage would not reach the serpent. 

Also he took notice the positions of the team members. Their formation did not let them scatter among the ogres. It was better choice since once killed would not revive in the game portal so they need to save their lives at any cost. 

The first grenade fell in the troop that was at the left side and waiting for its turn to step ahead for the attacks. They could not trample over others so they were slowly advancing. The blast was sudden and unexpected. It destroyed the complete ninth troop of the ogres. And the impact did not reach team members. 

It helped reduced the numbers of the enemies. The eyeless serpent got annoyed with this. According to the serpent the troops were render the players helpless. None of the player could keep battle for so long eventually giving up at the hands of the enemies. 

However if someone using active weapon killed so many then the battle would turn one sided in the end. Many ogres were given task to stop the player that was creating headache. Jake focused on the attacks because he was sure that his system would give warning if there was some threat near him. 

He was able to made way and stand on the roof top of a cottage, from here he was able to properly survey the battle ground. Now he was again busy in checking where his second grenade could bring chaos for the enemies. 

Meanwhile more than six ogres were given task to kill the seventh player. They were able to spot him from afar because of his open position. Jake deliberated as to where the second grenade should fell when the system gave warning. 

He was about to say that the system was getting generous in giving more than three clue in a day when he noticed that the in-game time has started the third day of the game portal. "This damn serpent spotted despite being eyeless." Jake retorted and checked the direction from where the sharp blades were expected. 

The attack range of the ogres was better than the players. This unfairness of the game was objectionable in true sense.
