"Ah! So you want the rewards already, do you." The scientist smiled.

She snapped her hands, and a panel appeared in front of her.

[Secret Quest: Return the computer to the Scientist

Quest Difficulty: A

Quest Time Limit: 2 Days

Reward: Exit from the Secret Realm

Penalty: No Penalty

Accept: Y/N]

Jake looked at this and he understood why there was no penalty. If the time limit ended, then he would die anyways. That was going to be the final result anyways.

Taking the quest wasn't going to hurt at all. But he did learn one thing. Where the exit was. It was right here. And he knew that if he wanted to exit this place, he was going to have to find that computer.

"Accept" He said.

[You have received map of the Secret Realm: Jurassic Kingdom]

"Ah! I knew that this place was like a copy of the Jurassic Kingdom!" Jake exclaimed as he tapped on the item. He was going to use it a lot now.

[You have received Pink Band.]

[You have received locator.]

These two were to find the computer and get it to the lab. He understood that much.

Just as he was about to leave to go ahead and get to work, he stopped for one last question.

"What about my friend? Can he leave with me as well?"

It was a valid question. This quest was for him. What if Myriad Arrows couldn't share the reward?

"He can join as well. I just want my computer back. I am way too busy to go out and retrieve the computer myself." The scientist waved her hand dismissing him.

"Get as fast as possible. If you can bring it to me really fast, then I might give you a good reward before your exit here." She said.

Jake's ears perked up as he heard this. Reward? He wanted a good reward alright. Now, he was incentivized a little more.

[Restrictions on chatting have been removed.]

Another message popped up. The grayed out chat button returned to its usual color, and Jake immediately accessed it.

Ping!

Ping!

Ping!

Ping!

Ping!

There were messages on messages waiting for him. The first among all of them was from none other than Myriad Arrows.

[What the hell are you doing in the mountain?]

[Why aren't you responding?]

[Is everything alright?]

[Did you die?]

Jake sighed as he started sending responses.

[I am fine. I got a new quest. If we can finish this, then we will be able to leave the place.]

Jake then looked at the other messages. He was surprised that in the few minutes that he entered a discussion with the scientist, so many people suddenly messaged him.

One was his brother.

[Brother. The chairman asked me a question and I am not sure what to answer him.]

[Is this urgent, Michael? If it is, then I will try to sort things out. But if it isn't, then can you wait a few days? I am stuck in this place for two more days, and once I get out, I will tell you what you need to do.]

Jake yawned. A few days in the game was not a lot for him mentally. He was used to spending weeks altogether in the game, but that was all in his head. His physical body was not used to this.

He was getting a little weak.

"I need to hit the gym a little harder, and maybe stock up on a few nutrition supplements for when I am hitting long runs." Jake noted to himself as he stepped onto the elevator.

The moment he stepped on it, it started moving, going up. He looked up, but there was no light up there. Clearly, there was a cover there for the mountain to still appear like a mountain.

As he slowly approached the top of the mountain, which he only knew by instinct, the cover on top opened up, and he could see a bright light shine onto him. But it wasn't bright enough to blind him.

It was the moon. Right above him, it shone strong enough to make him close his eyes. The elevator clicked as it reached the top, leaving Jake in the cold world outside.

The floor below was seamless once more, which seemed impossible.

Jake managed to do it with a flat wall, but to do it with a completely irregular surface, it was something only possible in the virtual world.

Jake looked around once more. The same sight that was visible to him when he was here half an hour ago. But this time, he looked at it a little different. Because this time, he knew what each place meant.

The map that he just got showed each place in the forest, marked according to territory.

"If I had this from the very beginning, how much it would have helped me, goddamn it." Jake cursed. They had to prepare for a whole two days to get one try ready to get the eggs from the dinosaurs.

If they had this map from the beginning, they could have saved on at least a day in that. And not to mention, the three days that they wasted trying to look for an exit when it happened to be in, obviously, the most dangerous place in the entire forest.

"Fine. Crying won't get me anywhere. I need to find Myriad Arrows so that we can figure out a way to get through this." Jake told himself as he opened his chat again.

[Where are you, by the way? I need to meet you so that we can get going. I am on top of the mountain.] Jake texted.

Within no time, he got a message back.

[I was waiting for your messages for a while. Damn right, we need to talk. I am at the base of the mountain, a few feet in. I'll wait for you to come down.]
