”Invaders? Kill them. Why are you keeping them? Are you waiting for them to reproduce and their offspring to reproduce? That will be an unlimited food source. That may be a good idea…” Cherry King asked and was pleased.
”We intended to kill them, but they shouted…” The Ogre was feeling awkward.
”What were they shouting?” Cherry King frowned.
”They shouted not to kill them as they wanted to see the King and defect.”
”See me? What do they want?” Cherry King was puzzled, and he said, ”Kill them.”
”Wait a moment.” Andrew stopped him and said, ”Bring them. Those creatures must be from Eternal Kingdom. I'll obtain intelligence from them before killing them.”
”Follow Andrew's instructions and bring them in.”
The Ogre left to bring in the prisoners.
…
Dragonborn's hands were broken, and he was half-naked. TakeASpearHit and SealHeadLingChong were like Dragonborn.
They were imprisoned in a cage, the Ogre's cage.
They were in this dire situation because they received a Special Mission.
[Mission Title: Urgent recruitment of Non-Existing Intelligence Organization
Mission Description: The strange Ogres occupied the Orc Village. We defeated the Ogre scouts and captured some prisoners. We didn't obtain useful intelligence. It is time for you warriors to sacrifice yourselves for Eternal Kingdom and all Underworld inhabitants. Infiltrate the Ogre-occupied village and obtain intelligence!
Mission Objective: Collect as much information as possible. Find out the identity of the black-cloaked figure.
Mission Tips: Before entering the village, you can give your equipment to Lord Sherlock for safekeeping. You will definitely die, but don't worry, Lord Sherlock will revive you. Listen to Lord Sherlock's suggestion. That will reduce the difficulty of the mission.
Mission Reward: Obtain a chance to strengthen equipment to Level 5.]
After a detailed discussion with Lord Sherlock, they stripped themselves of equipment and pretended to sneak into the village.
Their sneaking in was actually dashing into the village half-naked. They shouted, ”We're here to defect! We're defecting!”
Then they were captured, and their hands were broken. Their legs weren't broken because they had to walk.
Dragonborn was nervous, as he wasn't sure whether the mission could be completed. The Ogres looked vicious. They broke their arms without reason and looked as though they were going to eat the three of them.
His worries were uncalled for. An Ogre appeared and brought them in for questioning.
The three of them were led to a large tent.
Cherry King and Andrew were waiting for them. After seeing TakeASpearHit, Dragonborn, and SealHeadLingChong, Andrew's eyes lit up.
Those were the servants of Eternal Kingdom!
By looking at the strange green symbols above their heads, Andrew identified them.
”I'm here to defect! Don't kill me, I'm defecting!” TakeASpearHit shouted loudly.
