Sage port 6
The silent sage thought for a while. Clark held his breath. He did not know whether his words were enough boiling or not.
The sage tapped his pole on the ground and the fence disappeared. Clark got immensely satisfied on his skill. His punches worked. Junan hurriedly led the team inside the island and stood in front of the sage.
The sage was confident. He tapped his pole on the ground to show the glimpse of his approach.
The ground broke apart and swallowed the team members. The sage side smiled. His magic skills were limited because of level three however he could injure the team members.
If he did excellently with the magic there was chance that half of team members would die.
Junan and others were not expecting this. They thought that perhaps the sage would attack but he was following the method of those who were killed earlier.
The sage wanted to battle with the real form. The present form was hindrance and they did not want to show the horrible face on the surface of the island.
Kari set this rule to keep their identity hidden. They were living in the sage port with the fake appearance. Sage disappeared in the ground to sneak attack at the enemies. Other sages followed him.
Inside the ground the black craters welcomed team members.
Compared with the outer appearance of the island this was opposite of their expectations. The black broken underground walls along with the boiling crater were hard to ignore.
"Welcome in the hell." Before anyone else could give their impressions Orin spoke.
"Do not look at the craters instead watch out the sage is going to follow the tradition of his peers." Junan grimly commented. Soon after he commented something brushed past his shoulders.
The sage was hiding for attack. He heard the sharp enemy aware of his plans made him angrily attack.
Ahram shook his chain. Junan appointed him as the cover for the sudden attack. Ahram knew his responsibility this was the reason that he never gave attention to the general conversation between the team members.
He kept silent in order to keep eye at the changes in the surrounding. The chain stopped the pole in the middle. Ahram sprinted at the distance and dragged the sage. This sage was here to put the first attack.
Albert got alert. All of them took their position. The underground craters and the boiling water in them was enough of danger for making any attack recklessly.
They could not ignore this aspect. "We should split and tackle these nameless sages." Junan ordered others to divide in the small part of the underground hell.
Jake was not in problem. The task panel came with the notification.
It seemed the task panel loved his life more than he himself could care for. [Warning: There is the attack coming from your head.]
Jake hurriedly fired however next instant he immediately covered his head. The pieces of rock fell from above because he attacked and the sage could not maintain connection with the spell.
It broke the rock on his head.
He knew what the task panel would say at his haste. [You are sober enough to think the repercussions of the attack]
The rocks scattered with the single shield.
He sprinted toward the safe part and let another sage attack at him. None of the sage came to attack him anymore. They recognized this enemy.
Jake did not mind the behavior of the sages. He looked at the team members. Albert and his expressions both looked plain as if he was completely focused.
He was different from others. They attack and bring expressions according to the thoughts brewing in their heads. Albert kept it to focused or plain.
He was second strongest player with flat nature. Albert did not mind that the gaming company wanted to hire his services on their own terms. He wanted to revenge because his guild destroyed because of the servers crashing event. Almost all members of the guild lost their id's.
Many of them got their personal data publicized. It broke them. Half of them tried to commit suicide because of the hate comments on their social accounts.
Albert was here to defeat all other teams of the opponent gaming companies. He knew that the plan of the CEO would only work if the third team survived till the end.
It would destroy all other games and the gaming lords would become bankrupt according to the plans.
It would be the best revenge for him as the guild leader.
Albert jerked his shield against the sage and he fell in the boiling water. With this all sages met their end except one.
He was battling with team head. Junan found the weakness of the sage. The pole was part of the actions of the sage this means if the pole fell in the boiling water then it would be easy to kill the sage.
Junan attacked with the sword on the arm holding the pole.
The pole skipped from the hand and fell in the boiling water. Before he could use magic and bring it back, the pole filtered in the boiling water just like metals melts in the fire.
The sage looked at the opponent and stepped back. Team head did not anticipate that the sage could be fool to step back when he already saw standing on the edge.
The sage rolled from the corner of the crater and fell inside the boiling water. With his dead the ceiling above their head opened up. The second island of the Sage port broke spell with the death of the loyal sage.
Team members one by came outside. They could feel the disappearance of the tense air in the surroundings. "It seems we are free to search Kari. Second card we are coming." Orin was the first sprint at the surface so he called out loud with the excitement.
Others did not mind his ways.. It was actually good way to scare the possible enemy.
