Chapter 275 - Fifth Task

Fifth Task

First team looked like fools. Indeed felt themselves bystanders while the player came and snatched the ability. Orin has different nature. He would not want to waste his time in the comments or threats. Also he was worried that the chance might fell from his hands.

As the ability landed in his hand, he received the notification. However he didn't read the notification. He was not interested to read it in the first place. The enemies were already near his neck. They were looking like angry hounds.

"It is something troublesome. Wait for me again, not now dudes." He waved his thorny mace in order to scare them. Also yelled to call his team members. They were already on the way.

This was the second time that third team surrounded opponent team. They were puffing air in the chest to show how eagerly they wanted to use their weapons. Clark sneered to express his signature threat. He might have attacked without thinking anything however the strict team head would scold till the end of level. Clark sneaked Junan, the team head didn't want to quarrel in the restricted area.

Also when they could avoid it, they should. It was what Junan has in his head.

The opponent team has same thoughts. Their main concern was to stay in the level for longer time. It would be huge success if they reached in the next level one the basis of some progress. Otherwise the pitiful remarks of the owner would dug them down in their morgues.

"We do not want qualm. We will retreat since there is no use of battle." The opponent team head rose up the sword an announced. His team members nodded. Third team gave them enough space for retreat. This way the hot and tensed air scattered.

Third team let first team leave gallery. They were amazed that the new teams were little sober. However they didn't want to ignore precautions.

Junan put his sword at his back. "See the next levels are giving some pointers to the players. Our progress should remain at the advance level if we wanted to stick with the current ranking. Orin why not you check your ability?" Team head reminded the most gruesome thing Orin could ever hate. "Sigh, necessity is the mother of invention. My necessity made me keep it." Orin spoke and checked the notification.

'Mace Whore is one of the strongest ability which would get minimum five upgrades in the advance level. The player would be able to order mace Whore according to the tasks. This ability has increased the efficiency of the mace. Once activated the Mace Whore would tear apart the enemy in no time. However the upgrades can only increase the force of the ability.'

Orin flashed big smile after reading the characteristics. He was not expecting for some ability to be this impressive. "Holy crap, Mace Whore could tear apart my enemy." He spoke out loud laughing.

After playing three and half levels, this was the first thing that made him cheer something.

Jake saw the first team leaving gallery. From their actions it was clear that his team got the ability. He was glad to know.

Junan gestured them to reach at the entrance of the gallery so that they could open next clue for the task.

It was time to open the book of detection once again. The fourth task took longer time which they must compensate. Or else it would be similar situation like the last hours in the third level. They didn't want to face that situation again. It was hellish experience for them.

Orin read the clue, "The Crow Bone is the fifth ominous object in the museum. It is considered that this bone is haunted with the devil. The history of the bone has been erased by the devil, for this reason the administration of the museum could not get rid the bone in effective way. It is still placed in the Soil Hall. Destroy this Crow Bone and get the ability from the museum."

After reading the well described clue, Orin fell in dilemma. He was extremely shocked because one after the other, this book of detection was giving direct clues taking only reasonable amount of Exp. Indeed he has reason to get surprised.

Junan looked at his expressions, "Wonder what made you think gravely?"

Orin heard his question and resumed his dry expressions, "I was thinking of about book of detection. Did it plan not to give headache in the fourth level?" He expressed his thoughts. Junan heard and burst in to laughter. "Charish the opportunity as long as it stays with you. Who knows when the true face show up." He patted on his shoulder.

Now they were ready to reach reception and see the direction of the Soil Hall. There was difference, although it took them toil to claim distance toward the reception at every task nonetheless it worth it.

Other two teams get confused while crossing several pillars around the halls. They simply took double effort because they didn't consider the reception information. Actually first team didn't know the presence of direction map. It was hung at the other side of reception and one could ignore it if one was in hurry.

The third team saw the direction map. They twitched. This soil hall was at the opposite side where another number of halls were built for various exhibitions.

The museum was built for two main purposes. One was to exhibit the rare pieces of ancient times, be it art pieces or ancient sculptures or so on. The second purpose was to research on the ancient findings. The halls were separated to fullfil both purposes.

They never had thought about the possible haunted objects because the never believed on the fake tales.

Now the teams shall clear this museum and the administration would not ignore the possibility of the devil's presence in the objects. It was long way for the teams to complete the tasks.

Third team walked toward the next task place.
