The Player's System

North

"There is no harm in following that direction. We have nowhere to go. I seriously miss those games with the maps." Albert spoke. This portal introduced profession instead of maps. Now that this profession was in its incomplete form they could rely to their instincts.

Also it was part of portal that to find another quest after completing the first one.

"The global servers are changing because of the emergence of the game portal. Do you think it could ruin most of the present guilds?" Clark asked Albert.

While they were walking there was no one in the central city to stop them or start a battle. Albert was free to discuss his worry. Slowly all top ten games were closing their servers due to lack of traffic in the previous three months.

The maintenance cost of the servers was in huge digits. The lack of traffic threw them in utter loses. It was difficult for the owners of the servers to keep them running at the drops without any benefits.

"Who would have thought that small matter would turn in to bigger one. The closing of the servers is beneficial for the owners but scary for the guild owners. They had been working hard for those games. This damage would hit them harder. I as far as I known the owners of the servers are not going to compensate. In fact they would turn away their eyes as if they cannot see them…" Albert spoke.

"I am also owner of a guild and know how hard it to run the guild of hundred over pro players. Fortunately the CEO of the 'Sovereign Rulers' contacted I. He probably selected players on his own terms. I do not know his concerns however it is clearing now. He wanted to emerge a complete team unlike other teams in the typical guilds. Look at Ahram, Orin, Sashi and most of all the younger player. All of them bear different background in the gaming but they are selected. I cannot predict the future but I am willing to complete this portal for the sake of the CEO of the 'Sovereign Rulers' He is trying to revenge from the top four companies and I will render all my help being part of the 'Sovereign Rulers'. The rest is fate." Albert spoke.

Clark was impressed. This was rare to meet someone with sincere thoughts especially in the gaming world.

"Then it is confirmed that none of the guild would survive unless some of them are given chances in the portal." He was also running a guild but it was small guild working for the 'Sovereign Rulers'

Clark never thought that CEO would personally call him and invite in his office for discussing the topic related to the portal.

It was similar of some president of the country calling a peasant living in urban area for a tea party.

Ahram was famous player in the Abla server of the 'Sovereign Rulers' nobody knew about Jake Lin. Sashi was part of pro program. So literally no one was familiar with her.

It was enough to define that their fate brought them in the portal. "Indeed those guilds would suffer. I cannot tell what will be the scenario at the end of the portal. We will see new era and old faces would no more dictate the gaming world." Albert answered.

They were walking behind others.

The central city seemed sleeping in the bright day. This was strange. Not even the natives could be seen on the streets. The buildings were closed. The north distance was similar of the east.

"I think we should increase our pace." Junan spoke to get their attention.

They hurried their pace. Clark thought to reveal about the reputation scale after completing the second level of the portal. This third team was leading and they were labeled as the third team among the spectators.

And the younger player was known as 'Zero Three' he was leading the scale with individual reputation points.

Jake created official account with the same username. Slowly it was getting attention of the fans. The global search was flooding with this username. They found the official account of 'Zero Three' player with the introductory message. Well the task panel gave suggestion for the text.

If it was Jake then he might not have hit the idea of creating official account in the first place.

"What is this place?" Junan stopped to see the sharp turn on the ground. It was pointing two directions. There was pit next to the pointer. "Huh what is inside?" Orin stepped ahead to take a look what was there in the pit.

He saw to glaring eyes. The demon was standing and listening the runners. He was sure that they would walk away instead of inspecting the pit. "Oh I think I saw a demon there?" Orin stepped back.

His expressions were similar of his speechless appearance. "Demon is in the pit but what it is doing there?" Junan checked again but there was nothing.

He looked at Orin and brought some polite expressions. "Did you get your nape during the break?" Junan asked.

He was no in a rush to complete the quest because his attention was to keep the players sane at the first priority. The pressure of the portal and the unique settings could influence for sure.

Junan was not some irrational team head to force his men otherwise. They wanted to complete every level with perfect collaboration and the perfect demanded them to remain sane.

"I took nape of half an hour. I saw there demon glaring upward." Orin picked his thorny mace and smashed on the ground. The ground was not stable because of the pit it made another pit revealing the demon.

The demon was there protecting the cuff.

There were three demons in total. They looked at Orin as if he snatched their clothing and exposed publicly.

The red skin and the white blazing eyes were strange combination for the demon.. But they looked awfully horrible.
