Chapter Eighty-Five: Breakthrough

"That's the basic situation, we will break through in the afternoon, if you are willing to act together, please contact us." Early in the morning, Adjutant Oran summoned the numberers on the island in place of Kane, announced their decision to break out, and informed the others of Kane's speculation about the predicament he would face in the future. Of course, this was only a notice, not a request, and Orlan understood that no one would be optimistic about this plan, but it was better than staying here and waiting to die.

"What do you think?" The leader of a small group discussed with the others after Orlan left.

"Kane's speculation is credible, but it's a bit alarmist. Presumably, he wanted us to act with him, but that would be understandable, after all, there are more targets to contain the beast herd, and the survival rate can also be improved. One of the numbered people touched his chin.

"The question is whether we want to act with them or not, I don't want to stay here all the time, maybe in a few days this place will actually become a toilet." A young numberer said with a big grin that he was actually just pushed out by a few familiar companions, who made him the most popular.

"Do you just give up the treasure you have already got and participate in that plan with low success, if you are willing to do so, I have no opinion." People are all suffering from widowhood but not suffering, and as soon as this statement came out, everyone else was silent. They had never seen such a large sum of money, so they gave it up, and no one was reconciled.

"Shouldn't we be able to come back and get it?"

"Who knows what will happen at that time, don't forget, there is also a powerful Lord Reed. The location of the treasure has to pass through the territory of Rhodok, and if they get the news, if they block the border, then the treasure will become meat in someone else's bowl. ”

"Didn't he give up here?"

"Don't forget that Lord Reed has other people around." ・・・

Everyone debated for a long time and did not come up with a plan, and in the end, it was not settled, and they were all waiting for one party to make a decision first.

In the morning, except for a few solitary numbered people who came to the door, the other three groups had not yet made up their minds. But Kane couldn't wait, as he found that the beasts were still growing.

"Let's go, don't wait." Kane acted in a hurry.

"Two hours left, maybe they'll make a decision?" Adjutant Orlan persuaded her, who did not want to see divisions within her camp. It's fine that their breakout fails, but if it does, because of the two-hour advance, then the numberers will feel like Kane has abandoned them.

"People are responsible for their own decisions, and we are not obligated to wait for them." Kane said coldly, and then set off with the team.

Several of the numbered people guarding the raft were politely asked to leave their posts, and then all numbered people knew Kane was about to act. After all, the others couldn't make a decision, and Kane made a decision for them.

Before leaving, Kane's team was joined by two more numbered individuals, who gave up their biggest gains, but had enough materials in their backpacks to make their way out, provided they managed to break through.

Kane and his cronies, plus the numbered ones who joined later, barely managed to pull up a squad of 20 people, which was already a small part of the island's strength. However, Kane's brow is still furrowed, in his eyes, most of these people will become cannon fodder, maybe only one or two people will be able to break through, and he does not even guarantee his own safety. But that's why the program attracts some numberers, because since everyone is dangerous, then everyone has a chance to escape.

"Watch your voice, I don't want to bury everyone because of that idiot's negligence." Kane lowered his voice, their actions could not hide from the beasts, but if they were lured away, their own side might get out of the way. As soon as the rafts landed, many wild beasts attacked them, and for a moment the sound of slashing and killing sounded from the shore of the lake, and the other beasts also quickly approached here.

"It's now." Attracted by a few rafts carrying soldiers, Kane and the others quickly landed on the other side, running desperately into the forest before the beasts could react.

Kane and Orlan were together, and the others fled in different directions, which would maximize the survival rate, after all, with the strength of the numbered ones, it was fine to deal with a single beast, but it was not good to be besieged by a large herd of beasts. Therefore, it is safest to act alone, so that the target is small, and it can also distract the beasts.

Kane didn't go far with Orlan, he opened a piece of grass next to a tree, and there was a hole underneath it, and there was food and water in it, the size of two or three people. Caught Orlan, who was out of breath, and threw it into the pit, Kane himself jumped in, and quickly covered the turf before he could calm his breathing.

Kane didn't really plan to break out from the beginning, or rather with the others, he had dug a shelter here while he was making a raft, because Lord Reed had been stressing that there would be danger, and although he didn't believe it at the time, he still left a way out for himself.

"I guess when those people are gone, the beasts will think that there will be no more people here, and they may return to the lake to crucify the people on the island, and we will be able to escape. It's a pity that Tim and them are here, and there can only be two people here. Kane's plan was fairly simple, but without this shelter, it is estimated that the two of them would still be exhausted.

"I knew you wouldn't make such an uncertain decision, it would be child's play, unlike the Kane I knew. But have you noticed that you have changed a lot? Orlan touched Kane's face, barely able to see Kane's silhouette in the dimly lit hole.

"Hehe, after going through so much, how can you not make changes, haven't you also changed a lot. If Kane was still the innocent and cheerful big boy before, he would have died in the novice world a long time ago, and how could he protect the shy girl named Oran. Kane said calmly, grabbing Oran's hand.

Although he couldn't see Kane's face clearly, Oran knew that there must be tenderness and perseverance on it, just like when they were alive, Oran and Kane knew each other before they entered the space. But no matter how Kane changes, the person in front of her is still the same Kane, the big boy who stands out for her, troubles for her, and keeps smiling for her. Fate is like this, it made them separate for so long when they were alive, but they still brought them together after death.

Inexplicable emotion and warmth brewed in this dimly lit little space, and Kane waited quietly for the roars of the beasts outside to subside.

"It's over." I don't know how long it took for Kane's voice to sound.

"yes, I don't know how many people escaped." Orlan calmed down when she heard the beasts' voices, and although she wanted to stay with Kane like this, it was only for her part.

"It's time for us to act." Kane pulled out the frost battle axe, and there was an inexplicable force field circulating around his body, if Hu Bin was here, he would definitely shout that this was unscientific, Kane actually mastered the energy combat technique.

"I'll be handed over to the back." Orlan pulled a scroll from her inventory and clutched it, the halo swirling on her other hand indicated that she also knew some means of energy.

The turf was lifted off, and the two were immediately discovered. However, this was all expected by Kane, this place was originally close to the lake, but the density of beasts was not as large as there.

A brown bear happened to be nearby, saw the two men who had broken their disguises, yelled at the other beasts, and then attacked them with agility that did not match its size. Facing an elite monster that is five times the size of an ordinary brown bear, there are no outsiders present, and Kane no longer retains his strength. The red aura revealed the plate armor, forming a defense on Kane's perimeter, and the frost battle axe in his hand was also wrapped in it, and the bladed end condensed a blade of light similar to a sword.

Orlan chanted something similar to a spell, and his right hand emitted a gray light, enveloping Kane in front of him, presumably some kind of auxiliary buff spell. Orlan then tacitly hid behind Kane with a left-handed scroll and a one-handed sword in his right, blocking the enemy's view with his body.

Seeing that the two small humans did not tremble, the brown bear dared to resist, and immediately waved his bear paw and swept towards Kane in front. But a flash of red light flashed, and a thick arm flew into the air with the smell of blood and angry roars, and Kane and Oran, who did not want to delay for a moment, quickly bypassed the brown bear and fled in the direction of the outer forest.

The brown bear left in place collapsed, a huge wound from the waist to the other side of the rib almost split the bear in two, while the arm below the shoulder twitched not far away.
