Little kid

Little kid

The lightening balls attacks decreased because half of the assigned creatures were searching the culprit. Junan noticed it. He found some time to check on all the team members. He was shocked that little kid was missing. Worry took the charge instead of ease. "Where is Jake Lin? Did anybody see him?" he asked in hurry. 

They heard his concerned tone. It was not good. They had been slaughtering and thought that it was another mass kill session where the little kid would take part according to his capability. This thought never crossed their heads that he could go missing. 

"Go search him at any cost. He is strong part of this team." Junan ordered them immediately. Now they were tackling with the creatures and also searching Jake. Jake was not irresponsible however if had had taken permission from the team head then Junan might have stopped him from doing so. 

Also Jake was taking risk for Exp. The system demanded him to be the first to enter through the broken gate. If he had had thought to move along the team members then he might have been second or third player to enter inside the broken gate which would have reduced the earnings of Exp. 

One of the searching creatures noticed something off on the ground at the blast spot and attacked with the lightening ball to confirm that it was normal ground. The lightening ball fell on the shield. Jake fired endlessly to kill the creature before it could inform others and they surround him from every side. 

"Did anyone notice? The lightening balls attacks have decreased. I am having wild thoughts." Orin spoke unsure whether he was sounding absurd. "Say it out. A player is stopping them and creating trouble for them? And the player is little kid? I know you are thinking it, right?" Albert as if read through the expressions. There was no other reason behind this sudden decrease in attacks. 

"What made him go that far? Where he is right now? We should search him and help." Sashi got frightened about the safety of the young player. Junan was silent. Others could shout out their doubts however he was damn sure. 

"Hurry we need to move forward. He must be around the broken gate. The creatures would not let him go as soon as they surrounded him." Junan killed the ogre in his way and beckoned others. Now they were running toward the broken gate. 

Jake was stepped back. The present spot was not much helpful. He was under the direct attack range of the creatures. The bullets attracted the attention of other creatures. They were running as if ready to tear apart the sneaky player. 

Seeing this Jake ran back. His attention was focused. He was waiting for the right moment. The scenario was going to be simple and comprehensive. He was waiting that if the chasing creatures increased in numbers then he would throw grenade. The shield could fairly digest the impact of the near blast. 

First he faced the lightening ball then immediately decided to throw grenade. Five of creatures joined hands to throw bigger lightening ball. Joined attack would be beyond the limits of the single shield. Jake was afraid to let it happen. As soon as the grenade fell near, it blasted. Jake covered with the shield. 

There were two pressing concern, first of all he could not make much distance from the broken gate it would waste his efforts until now. Second reason that he was killing creatures of lightening ball race; it would greatly reduce the numbers of the stronger nemesis. 

When the team members noticed the blast, they located where they could find little kid. "Look at his guts, he has the courage to enter in the troops of the enemies but why?" Hammer boy was not pleased with this. It increased pressure on them because the team leader wanted to save him. 

"He must have reason for it. And I don't think that he needed our help. Don't sound like you are superior." Junan admonished. Hammer boy sealed his lips for the time being. "I think the running time is bigger problem. When we get caught by the troops of creatures, we usually overlook the short available time." Ahram spoke up. 

Jake felt that the team was nearing him. He started moving towards the creatures. Now that the team members were also in the main point, he could lead ahead. He picked all three grenades in his inventory and threw at the small troop standing near the broken gate. 

Three times bigger blast followed and the team members slowed down their rush. Also the broken gate was no more under the guard because other creatures were scattered in pursuit of the players. This was golden chance and Jake was unwilling to let it go. 

"He is entering through the broken gate. Hurry we need to follow up." Junan spoke. They made way while tackling the leftover ogres. There was limited time especially when the creatures were trying to gather around the broken gate once again. 

Jake entered the broken gate. He got hundred Exp. It was quite thrilling. He was at the level two and needed thousand Exp for level three. It was enough to make him learn that every important pullover could give him extra perks. 

However he was sure that the team members and the team head might get offended. For this there was long way of struggles and he could not predict future levels. "At least he gave some bolts to our present pace." Orin chimed. They were not taking it offence especially Junan because Jake was the first to point out the direction and bring them here. 

Others were having mix of thoughts. They were presently excited that they reached another marked in this level. After few moments the team also crossed broken gate killing the ogres and creatures along the way. "There is another broken gate, see there." The less excited hammer boy got stunned to see. 

By means they were leading toward destination, it was quite surprising.
