Chapter 200 - Sea Desert 3

Sea Desert 3

Seventh quest

It was not long ago when the creatures found out the reason behind the abnormality of the sea and desert.

Earlier the sea happened to be as peaceful as it should be. However after the card fell in the middle the water tides started to travel far beyond desert.

It gave much damage to the sea creatures because these were pushed toward the burning sand. The results were horrible. The sea creatures lost their charm and the sea also got unstable.

The only solution to this problem was to dig out the card and throw it away from the middle of the line. It was tough task however the creatures were reluctant to accept defeat. Now these humans came to bother their struggle.

They could only make three attacks. The reason was simple. Each creature dug once and remove the sand from the hidden card however today it was different.

The humans were standing here and the creatures could not push toward the hidden card. They could only attack once and the water surface started to reduce. Now if the creatures forcefully stayed behind they would get killed under the bright light of the sun.

It was pity that they would return back with removing sand from the hidden card however after half an hour the sea tides would bring them here again.

Junan saw the decreasing water and the creatures leaving, he was unsure what was going to happen now. Jake was near Clark. He was safe because Clark gave him support to remain intact from drowning in the water.

They stood in a way so to team head and Albert remained at the front of them. They followed this formation when it was necessary to provide support to the team members in the crisis.

With the water level decreasing they felt at ease. However they should necessarily solve this problem before something bad happen. The creatures were strange and their attacks could give direct damage. "When the water would decrease more we will walk toward the south of this part. Hopefully there would be something to clear our problem or we will find the card." Junan spoke.

"If we wanted to know the middle of the sea and desert then we should keep eyes at the sea as to where it will stop." Albert commented. This was what he understood from the clue.

Team head nodded. They could move toward the water because it was hard to look in distance under the sun. Jake also liked the suggestion. He did not want to again face the trouble of the water.

Ahram looked at the weapon of the team head. He was glad that his chain did not get damage.

Once the main weapon got damaged it could only revive at the beginning of the new level. "Sashi, Ahram and Jake would walk toward the opposite direction and search any visible part of the desert. The hidden card should have left some apparent clue." Junan ordered trio. He was going toward the sea side and check where it would stop.

They split in two groups and moved.

Jake walked along the sand. "If we reach some bigger sand dune we might be able to survey the area." He gave suggestion. Sashi nodded. It was good suggestion to see any visible difference.

The creatures were planning to attack the humans and get rid them. They did not know that the humans could solve their problem or else they would have personally helped the humans expose exact location of the card.

"I will learn swimming when we complete this level." Ahram talked to Jake. He wanted to know if younger player was also wanted to learn it or not.

"With the increasing difficulty of the levels I should also learn it. The team members are wonderful however I do not want to become burden on them." Jake answered.

Ahram got excited to hear. This means he would not be alone to take the swimming lessons however there was problem. The whole team was under the care of 'Sovereign Rulers' headquarters.

He did not see any swimming pool or someone talking about it. He was unsure whether the owner of the team would let them go outside of the headquarters.

"The headquarters has separate swimming pool and they could gladly provide coach for this purpose." Sashi spoke looking at the bigger sand dune.

They were near sand dune however their condition was getting worse. Sashi felt her throat got dry and she could speak further. Her lips felt dry leaves.

Jake was no different. His forehead poured sweat as if raining. It was not good sign and they could fell half dead before they reach sand dune.

"Is there some water or my eyes hallucinating?" Sashi pointed her hand in front. Jake looked and he also saw water accumulated in the part of the ground.

There was nothing else but the water accumulated.

"We can drink the water." Sashi hurried toward the water barely speaking those words.

Ahram held her wrist. "That water is part of sea water so possible if we drink it we might immediately die." Ahram explained. There were signs that the sea water invaded this part of the desert.

They felt as if they were facing real desert and the harshness of the desert. Jake remembered that he has single shield. He held it against the sun.

For his surprise his senses returned back slightly. The shield completely nullified the impact of the sun. When he felt that he was better he held over the head of the female player.

Sashi was not in good condition. Ahram was facing same however he was reluctant to appear vulnerable. The shield provided life giving shade to the girl.

Sashi felt her throat was no dry at least it was not killing her. She could stand on her own without the help.

They decided to use the shield and keep walking.. This was important to search the whereabouts of the card.
