Eysera Bridge 3

The grenades could only impact the limited area so it was easy to use them when the limited number of enemies tried to act cool. He was ready to use single shield to avoid the repercussions of the attack.

"Attention seniors. I am going to use grenade. Please avoid the impact." Jake spoke out loud to tell the team members. He was responsible to inform them.

They heard his warning and nodded. All of them were busy with the cactus. The long narrow path was filled with the cactus' they were everywhere. One could see the team members surrounded with small ruffians and they ever changing ways to attack at them.

Both sides of forest remained silent as if it did not exist in real.

Albert sprinted toward Junan. He knew that the impact would not be simple. The enemies were cactus plants. When they faced the blast the thorns might hurt team members.

Not all of them possessed shield to protect.

He also wanted to make sure that the team members should not work separately instead if they work in pairs then they could better use their strength.

"Kid you can use the grenade however make pair with Clark who is standing near your range." Albert gave suggestion. Jake understood the attentions of the experienced player.

The team members bent to give few moments for the attack.

Many cactus' gathered in front of Jake when he was taking permission. The numbers were simply limited for the bullets. The gun needed three times cool down to kill this bulk of cactus.

Jake simply threw the grenade at them and stepped back. He held his shield and bent. The cactus' looked at the grenade and covered it. Jake could not see how the cactus' hugged the grenade thinking that they were the bosses for all time.

The chunk of cactus' blasted. The pieces of the bodies scattered in all directions. Albert spread the shield to save team head. Others were at much distance so they were at save ends.

The blast helped clear the nearest part and Jake felt at ease. The cactus' that wanted to move at them stopped for a while. They seemed like in the middle to decide whether to keep continue bothering the team members or move away.

Jake thought that if the cactus' remained reluctant then he would suggest use few more grenades. The most he need to inform the team head. Junan would gladly give permission because it would save lot of time.

Team members killed many of them so the numbers fairly decreased with the blast. He walked toward Clark and stood by his side. They were looking at the actions of the plants.

"I don't know if I should label them smart. They are opportunist during attacks. What wrong have I done to them?" Orin barely held his frustration when speaking.

He was the one at tether ends. Orin got damage and the team head also got angry at his actions. Junan did not show however he proved through his actions that he did not like the way Orin jumped in the fire. Since they were doing series of quests for the cards they were short of time as well as they could not let the npc's give hard damage to them.

In case of damage they would be in trouble because it would delay the progress of the quest. The hp damage of bigger scale could stop their progress altogether.

Junan as the team head did not want this to happen. He wanted to maintain the performance till level five. They were under tough observation of the spectators and the enemies of the 'Sovereign Rulers'

"We already know that the portal has different set of quests and the bosses. They could be exceptional most of the time. In other games we can revive, we can learn slowly or we can experiment hundreds of times while here we are at the ridge end. There is nothing that could pay the cost of single mistake." Junan spoke to look at Orin.

Orin did not speak.

He knew it was his mistake. "But the actions of a fool alerted us that is plus point so chill buddy." Junan ended his words at the positive point. Orin felt lot of burden lifted up from his shoulders.

The rest of cactus' sprinted toward the both sides of the forest and slowly disappeared. The left the path open for the team members to advance forward.

Clark shuffled his gown and many thorns fell on the ground. These fell at him in the result of blast. Albert cleaned his spear because the gluey blood of the cactus' tainted the weapon.

Sashi carefully removed the leftover skin of the tiny ruffians. Once she thought that perhaps they would surround her entirely. She even felt the tinge of itching. It was terrible imagination she ever thought.

Ahram did not speak anything. He was as usual silent. Ahram only responded when team head directly ordered him or asked his suggestion.

"We will resume our journey. Since the path is narrow we will walk in three groups. The last one would keep casual glimpse at the back of the path. We cannot believe the silence of the forest." Junan briefly spoke about his theory.

Team members walked according to the orders. This increased their pace because the narrow path finally became possible to walk along.

Jake remained in the first group. Albert was necessary to walk in front. His shield could save them from direct and sudden attack.

Jake got added in the front group because he could use grenade in case enemy wanted to surprise them. Sashi was at the rare because she could use long range weapon.

The team formation was perfect. However the second lit spot that appeared at the map was different. The enemy was not going to attack suddenly.

It might not let them attack actually. The monkeys picked several sticks and got ready. They did not like the appearance of humans in the silent and reserved part where they live.

The team was following the marked line on the map. They did not know that they could annoy monkeys.
