Chapter 5: Breaking In
As soon as Roque finished speaking, the atmosphere around him began to change from one to another. Roque's men were on the edge of the dog walk, condescending, their bows full, and their arrows on the strings. Those who do not have a bow also hold a small axe, which can be used to chop people, but also throw it to open the head of the target.
Olga and the three of them leaned together, back to back with each other, looking at the people above who were not bad-willed. "What are you going to do, Captain Roque?" asked Olga. Julius looked more nervous, and Pattin, like Olga, didn't look panicked.
"I said, make the benefits even more. Roquehaha laughed, looking down at Olga and the others as if they were looking at a commodity, "Two strong adults, a healthy boy...... This can also sell for a lot of money. I know you're a little capable, but for now, I advise you to be honest and throw away your weapons—in my dog farm, any arrow can pierce your shoulders, arms, chests, thighs, ......."
Roque looks confident, and his confidence is not unfounded. Olga and the others were locked up in the enclosed dog walking arena, where arrows from above would make it impossible for them to hide. And Olga and them, even if they have the ability, Roque doesn't think they can break through the gate with a sword or a hammer. The worst development that Roque could think of was that they were warriors of the Silver Class, but even so, the thick gate would not be breached in a moment.
Roque felt that he was just scaring himself, and if this could lead him to meet the warriors of the Silver Rank, and let him touch this kind of mold, then he would be too "lucky".
Roque's words were straightforward enough that even Julius immediately understood what it meant. "I asked at the beginning, why do we do this!" he cried nervously, "now we seem to have become someone else's commodity, just like that madman!"
"Calm down, Julius. Olga said, "I wasn't going to end it smoothly, you should understand." ”
Patin continued, "Buying and selling is a means, but not an end. It's a ridiculous farce that can't be laughed at. ”
Roque frowned, the three people below, except for Julius, didn't look nervous, did they give up, or did they have other plans?
Then his premonition came true.
Olga pulled something out of her bosom. It was a diamond-shaped fiery red crystal, better sized to hold in Olga's hand, and its bright red and crystal clear appearance could easily attract the eyes of others, and Roque was no exception.
Olga next did something that Roque hadn't thought about. He threw the crystal at the tightly closed door. The crystal's sharp water chestnut stuck in the gate, and before Roque could react, Olga and the others had run to the other side of the dog farm, looking like they were hiding from something dangerous. Julius had even plugged his ears.
Roque didn't open his mouth to question Olga about their chance and time, and he couldn't have that kind of room to spare.
The fiery red crystal was stuck in the door, and a fiery light came out of the surface, making it look like molten iron that had just solidified into form. The next moment, the crystal exploded. With this explosion, the entire gate was blown away, and the huge explosion enveloped everyone present. The gate facing the inside was blown to pieces, leaving only a small half in place, most of them turned into pieces and flew outside, and the person standing on the outside of the door was very unlucky and turned into an ugly hedgehog, but it was safer in the dog walking field, but the ears had to withstand this unimaginable impact.
This explosion, even if it is a few miles away, I am afraid that it can be heard clearly. The power is huge, the sound is loud, and a small gadget has an exaggerated effect that is more exaggerated than a small stone cannon.
Roque on the platform above the gate was unlucky and lucky. The impact from below sent him flying out as well, and the platform he usually used for his time was reduced to pieces. The platform gave him some cushion so that his feet wouldn't blow up. He landed outside the dog farm and quickly stood up, his beloved big axe in his hand.
The impact still made his head ring, and he couldn't figure out what was happening, but instinct had already made him move in the direction of the bay, and his steps were a little staggering, but it was better than someone who couldn't even walk. His men also fell, broke their legs, and howled from the sidelines. Roque would only show compassion for his men when he was able, and at this time, his men did not have that opportunity to be cared for.
"So, that's what she gave us a signal!" Patin said loudly, covering her mouth. The dog walk was dusty, and although it was not very comfortable to breathe, it was effective in avoiding arrows from above—in fact, those who remained safe and sound on it were still covering their ears, and I am afraid that they did not have the spare time to shoot arrows.
"At least she's concerned about our safety and told us what to do!" Olga said, "but next time, please let me refuse to put this kind of thing on my body." ”
Julius covered his mouth and coughed, the hapless boy probably ate a big mouthful of soot.
Patin stopped talking, turned to face the stake wall of the dog walker, grabbed the gaps, and began to climb up. It didn't take him much effort to climb up, leaving Julius' eyes wide, how the hell did he do it?
After Patin climbed up, it wasn't long before the sound of a sword piercing flesh and a man's screams could be heard from above. This was followed by the sound of arrows slicing through the air and piercing into the human body. The arrow was not fired downward, so it was not Olga and Julius who were hit by the arrow, let alone Pattin. The screams and grunts grew louder, and Pattin's voice came from above, "I'll scout you from above, deal with those targets, and you rush in through the gate!"
It's not like it's good to say at the beginning, but in the big picture, the plan is.
"Boy, the clothes are thick enough, aren't you?" said Olga, drawing her sword and speaking to Julius.
"I—I've got a money pouch here, it should be fine!" Julius was so nervous that his hands were shaking. Roque probably thought a lot wrong at the beginning, and Julius didn't seem nervous because of cowardice, he was trembling for something else - the first actual battle, the inevitable bloody battle. If the other party does not bleed, then it will be him who bleeds!
Olga smiled and reached out to press Julius's head, "Follow me, keep an eye out for anyone around, watch out for anyone who will rush towards us, don't panic, if you panic, even if you are given a good sword, it will not be stronger than a blunt broken sword." Don't worry about the arrows, the more you worry about whether there will be an arrow coming at you, the more likely you will be shot, follow me forward, don't be a bird, don't be a turtle, get it!"
Olga's tone became a little heavier, it was a very important thing, so important that he couldn't say it too much even if he said it ten times.
Julius nodded vigorously.
Seeing Julius listen, Olga was a little relieved. He could see whether Julius was just dealing with himself casually, or if he really listened to what he said, and now it seemed that Julius was in a satisfactory state.
Now Olga didn't have the time to continue teaching Julius, and he had said enough before coming here, that as long as he wasn't listening, or wasn't so unlucky, then at least his life wouldn't be in danger—if it was just a life, it wouldn't be a big problem to save it. Even if he was injured, Lulunaka would probably help him deal with it...... As long as she doesn't have any other strange ideas.
The smoke and dust were slowly dispersing, and Olga didn't want to waste this precious opportunity, when the people in this place reacted, they would lose the effect of the surprise attack. In a place like this, even if there were a hundred or so people, he and Patin were not afraid of anything to say - as for Lulunaka, no one would worry about her, the only thing that made one worry was what she would do. Only a rookie like Julius is very likely to have an accident.
"Draw your sword and get ready!" Olga shouted to Julius. Julius took the cross-sword he was carrying, untied the strip of cloth, and took it in his hand.
Olga rushed through the bombed-out gate first, with Julius following him.
