356 7.84 Violente Et Corporalis Impetus, Robin...!!! (2/2)
Seeing it was a rather successful attack, the Barbarians also followed my tactic as they used their Whirling Elite Axe Attack to do the same like me but with a few turns than a short leap forward and then a few more twirls. I watched them and noticed it is like a ballet dance for them as they perform high jumps and splits in midair. Hahahah...
”DANCING SWORDS.....” as I made a few more spins and cut some of the stupid Orcs who happened to stand too close for both of the blades. Seeing an opening, the Archers shot their Arrows right though the Orcs' throats after someone shouted 'GO FOR THEIR EYES'.
”HEAVENLY SPLIT....” as I jumped in midair and brought a finishing move on an Orc that was impaled with an arrow on its neck. The borrowed blade slices clean through the top of the skull and lodged itself near the spine of the neck before I pulled it off and gave a front kick as it fell forward.
150....
120.....
85.....
55....
25....
We are down to only 24 Orcs and I was exhausted that I fell to the ground in my knees, 2 bloodied swords in my hands, dropping till its pommel with the blue Orcish blood when I saw a glint heading towards me... I'm just too tired and I want to lie down... I hung my head low waiting for the final blow...
*KLAAAANNNGGG* *BOOOOOMMM*
”Get up Boss, this is no place to fall asleep now. No casualties yet... And you are NOT going to be the first one....!!!” shouted Jean Lethal as knocked the incoming axe attack from an Orc and spin to give a Gotham strike in the head of the Orc that made it spin and collapse in the ground with a big baluku on its cranium.
Matilda ran beside me as she gave cover while I slowly picked myself up from the ground, the two swords acting like a crutch as I stood with wobbly feet. An offscreen crew came up to me and popped a few mentos in my mouth as I chewed down on the candy mint. A surge of energy passed through me as I can feel the sugar rush. I thanked the crew and he slinked back offscreen.
With a sense of renewed energy, I rushed forward with Matilda, as we performed a combo of blocks, parry and slashes and soon the number of Orcs diminishes until a while later... Someone shouted, ”We've made it, Sir Robin...!!! Its finally over and we can go home now...!!!”
A small teleport gate opened up and all weapons and armours were immediately stored in my storage while the spoils were all distributed among those involved... Hugo was sitting on the floor, tear-stained and was rocking back and forth saying,” Mummy... I want to go home. I'm a good boy, mummy...”
I kicked at his feet and he looked up while he slowly stood up when I said to him, ”It's finally over... Let's head for some ale...” and everyone trudged on through the teleport gate and I returned the blade to the Barbarian. It was a hellish 63 minutes battle based on 50 men against a horde of 160 Level 81 to 100 demons.
When we finally emerged in town, the adventurers had gained to Level 8 Golden Blossoms and had 96 attribute points to allocate and their skills, even though unused had risen to Level 32.
The captains all had reached Level 9 Elemental Crown and had 108 attribute points to allocate and had risen all their skills to Level 58.
Hugo of the Flaming Arrows went to discuss disbanding and resetting and was told he could retrieve his things inside the storage but unable to use them because his Level would be too low to be able to use the weapons and Armor except for the accessories.
All of us sat down at the tavern for a round of ale and dumplings to fill our stomachs as well as gain back some physical energy. No casualty. Very good. I looked around and congratulated everyone. Just that battle alone had earned them 198 gold coins and I distributed evenly and everyone received 2 gold coins and 4 shillings.
”Sir Robin, money is important. The important part is we came out alive, in one piece and no one gets hurt.”
”That's right, Sir Robin... With your leadership and the captain's as well, we manage to scrape through even though that Level monsters were 20 levels higher than what we should be grinding.”
”Long live, Sir Robin...!!! LONG LIVE NEW VAGABONDS ARMY...” someone hollered and it started a chain reaction and the thunderous cheers roared through the whole city of Leeds.
”My friend Hugo, stay awhile and let me hear your plan.”
