Chapter 123 - Welcome Party

Welcome party

There were people running madly the dust scattering under the feet of beasts. The king sent his pet beasts to help the mayor in eradicating Runners.

Team members stood to take a look what was happening actually. The scenario in front was horrible. They saw a beast trampled small house and the people those tried to escape. Orin was looking as if the things were happening in real.

"That beast is seeking death. Who the hell let it loose here?" Clark spoke. Orin was reading the book of detection. "The king is helping mayor. The unlucky would meet death." He read it to others.

After reading he looked in front and spoke, "The unlucky are the natives for sure. The mayor is aware about us. These beasts perhaps belonged to the king." Orin thought for a while and concluded from the words of the book of detection.

Junan heard attentively and nodded. "I can say this interpretation is flawless. Since we are here can see that the beast is running over others we cannot move away and search another tower. Can we?" Junan asked their opinion.

"To kill this beast is actual welcome party so what we are waiting? If the king sent this beast than he is going to regret." Clark waved his hammer. Others were ready to test their weapons whether the delay of few moments rusted them? Of course not?

They stepped ahead. Their present condition was similar of battle lovers. The exquisite gowns were slightly dusty. Two of them ruined their gowns because of fire. The combination of dark and brown leather gowns was quite appealing for threatening enemies.

Their main weapons were big, big and large sword of the team head, thorny mace of Orin, big crimson shield of Albert along with spear, the man with dagger chains, the girl with arrows, and the bulky man with hammer. Only a young looking player was standing empty handed. There was a dagger and small gun hanging on his waist. His single shield hung at the side of left hand.

In front of them a beast was asking for death because of its unruly actions. According to their observation it was only ten feet height however it was fatty.

The big body jiggled. It could barely move its feet however it was actively destroying houses and killing natives.

"Chains would not work here. The big body needed many attacks. If anyone could give better suggestion then go ahead." Junan asked their opinion.

Sashi looked at the silent younger player, "If we all start attacking then the battle would go on for some time however if we do little smart choice it will end in one attack." She has blunt idea to kill the beast from distance.

"Just one attack? Tell us." Clark asked impatiently. "Two weapons at the same time could reach its body and blast away. The ammunition pouch of the kid can do wonder with my arrow. For this we can close some distance. The ammunition pouch was simple.

They could not understand at first. "It will be similar. Jake will throw it in the air and I will shot arrow in the direction. The arrow would take the pouch and dug in the fatty body of the beast. Jake is quite learned in the gun fire. I am sure he could target the pouch and fire." Sashi explained her plans.

Jake heard it and nodded. This was possible but they need to calculate their positions before using this throw method. His responsibility and the target should not mismatch. Also the arrow of the girl should be focused.

The broken houses and the scattered woods were making the area look like destroyed already. Their blast might not bring worry for them. Also they could use destroyed houses as the hiding spot and target spot.

As she said they could kill beast in single attack. Team head heard the plan and looked toward kid. "You will collaborate with Sashi for this attack. Do you have any question?" he asked Jake Lin.

Jake fairly understood the plan in fact he was glad that this would save lot of effort. "The only problem is distance so Albert will also accompany both of you." Junan gave permission to go and kill the beast.

Till now many natives happened to spot arena runners. From their expressions they seemed to see their saviors. It was visible that the natives did not like the king.

There was strong reason behind it. With some rumors they were able to know that the king confined Ashmorn in the Palace. It was hideous deed in their eyes.

They respected the Ashmorn and did not want their king to show disrespect towards her.

Trio walked toward the broken houses. They selected a place. The minute detail and the movement of the beast should match else the arrows might miss the target.

Sashi stood at the wooden plank and gestured Jake. He was standing where he could fire perfectly in the abdomen of the beast. Jake threw the pouch in the air and Sashi shot arrow.

The arrow stuck in the pouch and took it along tugging in the fatty abdomen of the beast. Jake did not waste single moment. He took aim at the pouch and fired. Before the beast could see what kind of thorn pinched its abdomen the ammunition pouch blasted.

That large area dig in hole and the innards of the beasts appeared. The beast fell on the spot. It was unable to move.

The blast did not immediately kill. The natives in the surrounding stopped. They were afraid of the beast and the runners killed it.

The runners were as stronger as they heard from their ancestors. It was said that the runners were the first people who saved seven empires later their generations hide their identity lived normal life.

However the natives were certain that the runners would come to save the Ashmorn. Finally the day arrived. The natives stood to take a look at the runners.. They were feeling exalted to personally witness how the runners look like.
