The Player's System

Chapter 256 - Introduction



Introduction

The Museum has long history that began after the emergence of Bull's Eye. There were many hidden secrets in this museum. The museum and the related sections grown old with the time.

There used to be many visitors however over the passage of time the rumors spread. Now this museum was called haunted place. The owners decided to destroy the building.

Behind the rumors it was again the Bull's Eye. The owners did not want to mull over the topic. Some said if the Bull's Eyes were destroyed then the museum would resume its good days. Some said the hidden secrets were the reason behind desertednes of the museum.

The players were sent to solve the problem or search the Bull's Eyes. No one ever personally witnessed Bull's Eyes. It was really hard. There were some hints about in which section it was last seen. But it was not concrete way to search it.

There were twenty sections in the entire museum coupled with subsections. Each section exhibited various history related stuff. The findings of the researchers and many ancient yet expensive artifacts were part of Museum.

"This is it and we are supposed to get our hands on the weapon abilities and profession abilities in this fourth level?" Clark got frustrated to see how they were walking here and there aimlessly.

"Your low patience would drag you in the hell for sure." Orin commented. He was yet to explore this place and someone wanted to see enemies. "At least it would drag me somewhere." Clark shrugged his shoulders.

They stood in front of the section called The Art Gallery. "See if the book of detection has some clue." Junan spoke. Orin opened book of detection. "Clear the ten haunted objects from the Museum and save it from destruction. Beware destructive weapons are not allowed to use. Whoever caused destruction in the museum would be thrown out of the quest. The first haunted object is a Picture in the art gallery." Orin read the clue which was as clear as day.

There was nothing that needed explanation. "So the ammunition should not be choice no matter how the situation unfold. Also we will be searching ten haunted objects and perhaps destroy or crush? Alright this seemed quite simple level." Junan commented and got ready to enter inside the gallery.

"What about weapon abilities and the profession abilities?" Sashi asked. She was eager to get her hand on the ability, be it weapon related or profession related.

"We'll see how things would unfold. Also it is mere expectations, the reality might differ." Junan shrugged his shoulders. His tense expressions were no more tense.

The skyhigh ceiling of the section looked at the players and their strange appearance. The art gallery was decorated as per the available space. There were desks in straight line the in middle of gallery, the small and big art pieces were displayed there.

Bigger portraits and images were hung at the various walls. Many middle walls separated the view from the different angles such the visitors could easily watch exhibition and feel peace with less people walking around. Only those who liked particular art portraits would stand in front of it in the form of crowd.

"There are several images, portraits. What is the symbol of haunted object? Can anyone tell?" "Clark asked after glaring some of the portraits. The portraits were of ancient people, some kings, or queens. Mix of art styles and structures too.

He looked at the portrait of a king. It seemed the person in the image was angry at the onlooker. Clark clearly felt the instinct. He thought to give second glance. It remained the same.

He was ready to destroy the image but remembered the warning. Ahram was stand at some distance. "Buddy come here, take a look at this portrait. Do you think it is haunted?"

Ahram came and glanced the portrait. "I think the artist portrayed the expressions of the king very well. Also I am not sure what it means by haunted. Someone should explain what is the proper interpretation of this term. I was also confused about a portrait." Ahram replied.

He was equally unclear. "Ah you are right. I actually don't know what is the thing called haunted. We should ask team head." Clark spoke and walked to reach team head.

Junan was standing in another section opposite of the wall. He was actively searching haunted portrait but got lost in the beauty of an image. It was fascinating and bringing peace. His nerves got relaxed and he no more wanted to walk or do anything.

Clark and Ahram were walking to reach team head after Albert told them where team head was currently. Ahram noticed a player through the mirror art placed in front of the desk.

Ahram hurried stopped Clark and gestured to remain silent. He was sure that the other two teams must have read the clue and they were in the art gallery for the haunted object. They would not destroy randomly.

"The opponent team is here." He whispered in low tone. Clark wide opened his eyes. "It seemed the opponents are smart this time. What is the plan?" He asked.

"First of all the other team members should be aware about the opponent team. They should not secretly harm us. You remember the words of the team head and the owner." Ahram spoke.

Clark nodded. "Indeed. I will go to right side and you will go front." Clark pointed direction. The rest of team members were in those two directions according to Albert. Albert always take note of the team players and their location because he was shield man. In case the team members falls under threat he could run to save them.

"Alright be careful." Ahram gestured and went in front part of the gallery section. He was looking around and taking steps.

Jake was standing alone. He was facing same problem about the term.. It was hard to find one portrait among thousands.
