The Player's System

Check out my other story, "My Last Hunt" Gaming is the only common interest. People are steering through the worlds of advance gaming, the competition is never-ending. Only a few games managed to make their mark among billions of users. There was no doubt that those games worth spending time on. The desire to be the ultimate number one raged a cold war and fired the temperature through the roof. Consequently, leading to browbeating and leg pulling. The game 'Sovereign Ruler' was definitely a crowd favourite. The game aided the increment in the gross rate of the company. Patina Lin and Jake Lin, both siblings, played this game.  Patina, the most celebrated player of the game, earned money in various live quests. Jake, unfortunately, couldn't play like an average player let alone a pro one. Because his right hand was defected by birth.  He was sure that he would never be able to become a pro like his older sibling. But then, sadly, Patina Lin committed suicide.  Jake Lin was left all alone in the world to fight away the conspiracies and bullying.  After submitting the missing report he got himself in massive car accident. He was thrown away by the almost fatal accident but surprisingly he made it alive.  A voice welcomed him "Hello Defected Human" upon waking. He looked for the origin of the voice but it didn't belong to the outer world rather it came from his own head. [The cover is temporary and belong to rightful owner. This story is set in alternate world]

Lightening balls

Lightening balls

With the team organized the team members started to attack and kill the attackers. The distance between the broken gate and the team members was not exaggerated. If they kept to their efforts with the perfect collaboration then they were bound to reach in time. Jake was trying to calculate whether the bullets could fire at the creatures those were throwing lightening balls. 

He sighed because despite his dangerous decision of moving ahead, his bullets would miss the heads of the creatures. He once again felt the limitations else he might have intruded in the ogres and threw the grenades however for now it was impossible. He could stand on spot and then use fire controls. 

The problem was simple and complex at the same time. He was supposed to enter in the broken gate first after doing some hand to hand with the lightening balls throwers. The system was getting demanding how he could understand that nothing was free of cost. He wanted Exp for level up so the system granted tough chance. 

"It seemed my system can read my thoughts." Jake murmured. The notification screen appeared in front of him with the short notice. [Yes I can read your thought process] Jake fell speechless. He thought to be careful next time. The creatures with the bright red eyes were moving towards the team members with utmost enthusiasm to defeat them. 

They were guarding this gate. The perfect combination of attack and defense was in no way inferior against the players. Jake was fully focused as to what path could be safe for his venturing in the middle of the chaos. He has no doubt about the system offer. If following few of these offers could bring him to level three then he was willing to take risk. 

He was quite smart student, using brain and finding path was no difficult. His did not earn A+ grades for nothing. He looked at the left where Junan was holding mace in one hand and sword in another. He seemed true fighter of ancient world. 

He fought as if the world would crumble down in case he did not fight till end. Albert was running errands to keep the team members safe from the direct attacks of the lightening balls. Jake did not need to stand under the shield because he has his single shield as weapon. Everyone else was doing wonderful streaks when attacking the ogres and creatures. 

He could witness how experienced and masterly they handled their controls. "Move ahead instead of stepping back. If the creatures are glaring, glare them in return. The broken gate is the destiny." Junan gave speech to increase their morale. 

This reminded them that they should actually move forward. The mass kill of the creatures created some empty space for them. Shieldman led them ahead. Until now several lightening balls hit right in the middle of the shield and Albert could tell how accurate targets were done by the creatures. 

Jake finally took courage. He selected direction where the ogres were rarely seen. Almost all of them were focused on the team. Jake kept the shield near his head and ran. There was nothing with him that could attract the attention. With the help of lightening balls he could see the path ahead. 

There were tens of creatures near the broken gate. They were throwing lightening balls tirelessly. Jake tightened his grip on the shield. A lightening ball fell straight and the shield held it outright. He heaved deep breath. It was clear that the lightening ball was not aimed at him to stop, it was just another random attack in the all directions. 

The creatures seemed on dead end today. Jake sneaked his footsteps silently. The present distance was enough to throw grenade and see what would happen and how much damage first grenade could render. Jake was feeling the pulse and the throbbing heart. 

He was going to bring some disturbance in the hive of bees; the consequences would be dangerous most definitely. Before throwing grenade, Jake looked around as to where he should run in case more than five creatures came to bother him. 

Junan was busy and his attention was focused for guiding players, avoiding lightening balls and attacking creatures. He was sure that the little kid was near as usual. He had been guiding little kid to remain under his range so that none of the direct attack could harm him. 

Jake was on task to fulfill for the sake of Exp. He was unwilling to drag his injury any further. He set the escape route and threw the grenade. Four of the creatures capable of throwing lightening balls looked at the ground and then in the surrounding. 

Jake sat on the ground and covered his head in case one of them counter attacked. They were about to pick the thing and examine when the grenade burst. They were hovering over it so ended up dead. Jake sneaked through the shield to confirm that his plan worked. 

It was by luck that the place was under utter darkness. The creatures could see however it was slightly different experience to check the presence of someone hiding under the shield. The color of the shield and the ground matched perfectly. Jake was smart to sit and hide under the shield. He noticed the advantage earlier. 

Because of this the creatures were frightened when they saw that four of them were killed suddenly. It was not good sign. Half of them halted their lightening balls attacks and started to search who was near the broken gate. Jake hastily moved aside to reach where the four creatures were standing earlier. After the living creatures cast last glance they did not bother to seal the spot for any further damage. 

They were literally searching blindly. The grenade was better option. It gave less trouble in attacks. Jake was thinking to use the available numbers of the grenades wisely. The first attempt increased his courage to further follow his decision.
