Chapter 141 - Second Palace

Second palace

"Where is the second palace?" Orin asked as if eagerly wanted to kill the second king.

They were in the open. After the destruction of the east palace the second king ordered his security men to hide the palace from the eyes of the runners.

The horizon looked at the phenomenon with the wonder. The garden surrounding the second palace enveloped the palace in the blink of an eye.

All paths leading to the palace became invisible.

Jake thought about the task panel. He decided to ask for the second clue of today. It was better than wandering like flies. Orin looked in the book of detection. This time again as they were near at the second last task the book of detection stopped giving gestures.

"I swear I will tear apart this one page book if it existed in real." Orin closed the book with the click. Despite his utmost frustration to learn the detective profession this book of detection was not cooperating.

"Rest assured all professions will go through upgrades with each level. Although I cannot tell how the detective profession will evolve. I think it depends on the intellect of the player while I highly doubt if exist in real." No one absolutely no one can taunt but the team leader. Junan proved it bluntly.

Orin gulped dry breath. His unbelievably speechless face showed how stumped he was feeling at this moment.

"Yeah this the privilege to be team head. Enjoy it buddy." Orin nodded his head still his expressions unfathomable. He was at the peak of his patience others could notice it.

Albert was most happy to see this taunting. "Good going someone took revenge for me. You deserve this." Albert added. He wanted to say that Orin should have used his brain instead of the tongue however Albert forced himself to not speak it.

He was angry at Orin because he revealed his conversation in the global group chat. Albert told him to not reveal that he disgusted snakes and their poison.

Orin pinched his lips as if trying hard to keep his calm mind. Others looked away because they were trying to stifle their laugh. Both Junan and Albert were roasting with all manners. Jake was neutral in this conversation.

He silently called task panel for the clue.

[The second palace went under the ground. It is at the north from the current location of the host.]

[The north garden provided space at the order of the magic attendants.]

[If the host wanted to find the palace then break the shackles of the garden. There are four shackles at the four corners. Each shackle is under the order of the magic attendant. The shackle is similar of cuffs.]

[Warning: Three demons are protecting each shackle.]

[Kill those demons and the shackles will break. With the shackles destroyed the magic attendants would be killed eventually.]

[I think the host is mature enough to care for the precaution. I do not need to remind.]

Jake Lin read briefly. It was wondrous ay for him. Before this day whenever he asked for clue the task panel only kept it limited words with no explanation today it was generous toward him.

Most of the time task panel intentionally kept one or two things hidden from the host in order to confuse. Well it was unknown whether it was intentional or the limitations of the task panel.

Jake looked up to confirm the direction.

According to task panel it was at the north from his current location. It was at his left hand.

"Once again we are at the mercy of luck or someone knows our destiny?" Clark asked. He was thinking to change the direction of the topic.

"I can use fourth tear for the direction however I cannot bring it in the light." Junan answered. He remembered the words of the elder. Jake was silent. When the book of detection give some clue it ease up his concerns because he could manipulate the explanation however telling them something out of the blue could surely confuse them.

Also he was now worried for the spectators. They would start blaming the CEO of the 'Sovereign Rulers for manipulating some the secrets of the game.

The other cobra like enemies would start campaign against him. The truth that the CEO was not doing anything underhanded but no one would trust.

Jake did not want to create such chaos against the CEO. He was indebted to him for selecting him.

He finally spun the excuse. He pointed his hand at the direction where they destroyed third palace then pointed north direction saying, "When the pylon was shattering the magic attendants looked in at that direction. I was curious back then and now since we are nowhere to go we can travel in that direction to take a look what is special there." He sounded confident.

Junan had had seen him many times noting down each and every detail. Albert was no different. He checked how the kid was giving accurate clues however he reached at the conclusion that the kid was different when doing the quest along with them.

They always got invested in the battles and then forget other things while the kid actually decided soberly. At many places they were saved from the circle of the enemies and wasting lot of time in the random battles.

If it was solely for them then they might have exceeded from the time limit of the previous level however Jake kept reminded by his actions that the time was precious.

He was more of a genius among the players.

Others looked at Junan because it was all up to team head whether he wanted to listen to the suggestion of the team members.

This team up was different. If it was normal game the players might have disagreed on the leadership of the team head and search another guild.

Before getting selected for this team they took oath to listen to the team head else the selecting bodies would charge them the double amount of their earned money.

It was similar of threat however they were here to complete the portal and see the end of portal.
