Fourteenth Cura 3


    As to why Jake almost begged because stupid Orin was already on the way to reach the knot. Jake reminded them not to randomly open knots.


    On his request all of them actively checked their knots. rk and others slowly explored. "I can safely assume that the beginning of the trap knot is here. I can see the edge." rk spoke after long time.


    All of them took enough time because the trap was not loose in the beginning, they slowly twisted limbs to see the knots. "Sure you can open it, you will guide us with the help of this string." Jake answered.


    Task panel helped in giving details of the yer go has the knot. So he was confident about it. rk pulled the string and all parts of trap untied itself. These actions of the five yers were noted down by the executive of the ''Optimal Crown''


    (At the opening of thest quest of the third level, Executive thought to check with one of developers. The developer was not willing to pay visit at his office at first. It was not bribe that attracted him either.


    The Executive sent dialed number from the residence of the developer which was a sign that developer should not deny again. It was more than threat. The developer thought to record down whatever conversation they do in order toin about the executive. It was strictly mentioned that none of the five CEO''s could influence the job of developers.


    This would surely save his family and he would remain fair withpetition. At the beginning of thest quest they were sitting around dinner table and looking at the live screen instead of eating dinner. "Tell me how frightening this trap can be for the team." The executive asked the question.


    He wanted to know whether developers really designed tough levels or it was the third team tempering them. It was still big question why other teams were unable to stay longer in the quests.


    "This trap can kill yers one by one. Only the edge of the string could safely open the trap. In my opinion at leastwise one yer should have been killed before they understand the hidden trap however they are smarted than the normal. They already assumed that trap is not simple." The developer exined.


    A man was holding gun and standing near his wife. He was forced to listen and answer. The Executive nodded. The answer of the developer helped him much. He was hundred percent sure of something he had been thinking in the previous few days.


    He stood up and walked toward the developer, "Now you can have happy dinner with your family. I guess you do not need this recording as I did notmit crime in asking you simple question." The executive forcefully snatched the recording and went back.


    The developer looked at the executive while he was leaving. He thought that perhaps he would threat him to disclose the key points of next levels.


    Executive did not want to fire anothermotion. Tempering with the ongoing portal game in anyway could destroy him immediately. He was not fool to do this. Also threatening one developer for small question was different from ordering all developers to temper with the quests.


    Main developers were strictly under the eyes of the court.)


    rk led them toward the third path, the string lit up to show the path as well.


    ...


    Junan had been fighting with several beasts and their owners. One after the other appeared and attacked at him. At some point of time he was unable to stand properly. Devastating battle did not stop.


    He was still fighting when the slight light appeared at the front horizon. With this the beasts and the owner vanished. Junan thought that perhaps one of the yer was able to get rid the Cura Interval. He thought to walk toward the light.


    Soon he saw five yers walking in straight line. Junan also joined them and picked the string. They were moving slowly. Junan wanted tough at the quest after knowing it was timeless however the HP was not endless. This could equally stake the yer.


    During battle his HP reached at the red line. Fortunately he found others. They saw the seventh yer eagerly killing Murky Halo. The Angry Nation fell at its lowest and worst form.


    It was about to give up when six yers joined too. They saw Albert. Albert stopped and weed them. They finally found each other. It took them ages. It was first ever that they spent time in timeless quest. They admitted that the feeling of being under the timeless Cura Interval was not good experience.


    "There is The box at the back of this murky Halo. Let me finish thisst one." Albert rose up the shield to killst shadow when it vanished itself. It got immensely weak that it was simr of dead.


    The big curtain of darkness disappeared and their eyes fell at the floating card.


    The Fourteenth Cura was big cardpared to the rest of thirteen cards.


    The The Box was shining with golden lines along with flood of lights. "Wepleted quest?" rk asked enthusiastically. All of them nodded. The Fourteen card was in front of them. Junan rushed remembering thest line of the instructions. He jumped and his hand touched the card. Fourteenth Cura floated from its ce and added in the lid of the box.


    Thirteen ces of the box lit up. Junan opened his inventory and shifted the cards ording to the numbers. The team members dly saw thepletion of the level. They were happy that they were the single team to im the quest rewards.


    With thepletion of the quest, the exit of the portal appeared in front of them. The thrilling and exciting third level gotpleted. The third team became unbeatable for the third time.


    The live screens turned off and the audience started gossiping about the quests and how the team yed them. The audience seemed not in hurry to go back or rest.


    Some of them bought tickets for the Fourth live portal. This was their first priority. Although the management announced that they would start to sell out recordings of the previous levelpletions however enthusiastic audience wanted to watch it live.


    All of them exited. Junan heaved sigh of relief. He got rid of never ending third level. They were ready to fell asleep. During the quests they didn''t take break. The team members had tough time however the CEO of the ''Sovereign Rulers'' was d at the ending of the level.


    The next two teams were selected for the fourth level. The discussions were going on at various forums. The social media was flooding with posts andments. The personal ounts of the yers received bulk of followers.


    In the meantime media graphs were released. These graphs were created for the sake of industry rankings. Thepanies were listed ording to their weekly activity. ''Sovereign Rulers'' appeared as the most appreciatedpany in thest week.


    Many wealthy investors contacted to buy their shares despite knowing that ''Sovereign Rulers'' no more running personal servers for the game. ''Optimal Crown'' could notpete anymore. The assets and the reserve wealth reduced.


    It caused hugemotion at the present payments for the employees and investments. The CEO urgently conducted a meeting. He decided to fire some of the employees and reduce burden on his ounts.


    The side investments were cancelled. Same happened with the rest of three poprpanies. There were many sub branches of thesepanies where several hundred enterprises work for them. The business received huge drawback. However there were still hopes that thepanies would be able to makee back.


    The CEOs separately put all efforts to make strong teams in order to appear in the live portal. The Executive of the ''Optimal Crown'' tried to contact others however they did not ept invitation.


    There were only three days to settle themotion before the opening of the fourth level. Later the discussions would remain same because of live portal. None of them could influence with their wealth because the court wanted this live portal as fair y.


    After thepletion of third level many protestors receivedpensation from thepanies ording tow. The executives wanted to cry and smash the heads of the useless yers of their guilds.


    If they were capable enough, thepanies would have gathered lot of wealth. All investors were interested to bet their wealth on the third team. Some of them personally wanted to meet the yers and hand them over the cheque.


    However the owner of the team refused the generous offers politely. He has enough wealth to shower over the third team. He didn''t want the third team get in trouble in anyway.. The present performance if team could drop if they were allowed to meet public.
