Chapter 33 - Accurate Target

Accurate target

The second corner was not much away. It was under the range. With the constant battle state fairly decreased the number of the ogres. It was good sign however the dark smoke was still there and it was slightly stinging in their eyes. 

The eyeless serpent started the second stage of the attack. Since the Cobra Lord ordered for using every means then the eyeless serpent was obliged to follow. It was no more getting backing of the poison nonetheless the personal means were still favorable option. 

The inborn characteristics of the eyeless serpent could help in giving tough time to these players. Previously stalled poison breaths of the Python were still saved in the shingle and it did not vanish with the time. Now that the need arose, it was time to release the old breaths. 

Presently shingle under the cover of the vessel was carrying enough of the poison breaths of the Python. It was filled and if someone tried to use it for absorbing the dark smoke then it would not work. The eyeless serpent was forced to use poison breaths of Python causing the dark smoke turn slightly greenish. 

It was similar of slow death. For the reason that the players were not feeble, the dark smoke only hurt their eyes. Apparently it was stinging their eyes however it was soaking inside the eyes without letting the players feel it. 

The already dark surrounding turned increasingly bothersome with this. Junan and others were feeling irritation and stinging in their eyes. It was something strange for them that earlier the smoke was not giving this irritation. "What is wrong with the smoke?" Albert furiously uttered. 

"Can anyone feel the difference in the surrounding and tell what is going on?" Orin constricted his brows and asked. They were still surrounded by the ogres and engaged in mass killing. Sashi looked at the young player thinking that he perhaps knew something however Jake gestured her to keep quiet.

If he told them what was happening then he would not be able to set target on the shadow. This time he did not use his hand for pointing toward the second corner. Jake gestured with his eyes. Sashi followed his silent gesture and sure enough spotted the shadow. 

Without bringing it to notice she held the arrow and aimed. The instructions were already given and she was afraid to go against the instructions of the kid. It was vague to the point of blank nevertheless Sashi kept strict eyes at the same spot in order to trace the shadow with her experience. 

Finally she could see the vessel on the head. Setting the target Sashi kept in mind that the head should not get hurt with the arrow. She was forced to admit that it was tough however backing down was not option, at least for the sake of saving face in front of kid. 

Jake fired bullets in order to keep away the ogres so that the girl could attack the shadow. Drop of sweat trickled on her face. Sashi fired the arrow in the middle of the ten inches long vessel. The vessel was expelling dark smoke. 

As the arrow cut the vessel right from the head, the shingle fell on the ground. Initially this shingle was created so that the eyeless serpent could keep storage of the poison breaths. As for the reverse use, it was the idea of the system given to the kid. 

Jake blinked because he was looking with the wide opened eyes praying that the target should not miss. When he saw the shingle falling on the floor, he wanted to give a hug to this experienced gamer girl however he remembered that he was not in his home watching his sister win the live game and the girl was not Patina his sister. 

Sashi saw the shingle fallen off on the ground. She looked at the kid whether to praise his intellect or fear his accurate guidance. None of the player could predict during the live game if one tried one would fell face down and make fun of his choice. 

Here the kid was insanely genius and accurate about the mere premonition. Sashi has reason to fear. The eyeless serpent baffled with this attack. Until now it was betting to remain hidden. The dark smoke was there however it was slowly decreasing since the source wiped up. All of them were complaining because the irritation in the eyes earlier. 

They had been busy in this mess and the chaos of the ogres along the way. The situation might have worsened if someone had not had done perfect target attack. Fortunately the soaked amount of poison in the eyes did not reach the dangerous level.

As soon as the shingle fell, the eyeless serpent wanted to escape. It was no more in condition to bring any damage. The team members were beyond expectations. It was coward to die at their hands. There was one or two option to bring plight however it would take the life in replacement. 

The eyeless serpent was the creation of the Python but it did not want to give life for the sake of Python. Seeing that the players would eventually clear the district, the eyeless serpent was willing to peacefully live under the surface. 

Jake was unwilling to let go because system already told the amount of experience gain in return of killing eyeless serpent. His hand was fractured from three points and he needed Exp for healing the broken bones of the right arm. 

Jake could not show similar inability in all levels. It greatly restricted his movements causing him to rely on the help of the Team Head. Of course it was unfavorable to long term. Sooner or later the levels would get immensely difficult and the challenges would get tenser. 

His attention was to reach the level three at the end of first live game portal. According to the system, the broken bones would heal up at level three. This would help him use his right hand though not much helpful because of the inborn disability.
