The Player's System

No escape

The troops spread on all three sides. They were strictly ordered to capture third team. Also they were well versed with the sharp ways of the team members.

They were able to cross protective wings. They destroyed the Altar. This team defeated pool of dead. The long list of their insane adventure was never ending.

The Duke might commit suicide if he could not stop them. The king could order to destroy Itaten Farm along with the family of the Duke.

It could potentially ruin everything related to the Duke. The troops were aware that they team members would try their best for escape. This was the reason that they blocked every path be it in the dark or the front. Soon Albert realized that he could not provide cover.

The left side troops were also attacking. Those attacks were from dark side and he could not see source. Jake held his single shield and fired.

A single gun could not face thousand over troops and their constant fire. They were already cornered. "Seems like our enemy prepared this time." Team head understood. They could not leave no matter what.

"Too bad. This Itaten Farm should know who we are." Orin elbowed younger player." He did not want to get caught and become pitiful hero of the game portal.

"Since the enemy wanted to corner us there is no other choice. Jake you will make way from the front of the troops. Let us walk among them and tell that they are far beyond us." Team head spoke firmly.

They did not want to be captured. The level of difficulty was unknown and the capacity of the enemy was visible. In such scenario if they let enemy capture them they might be considered fools. Jake put his hand on the pouch hanging on the waist. He covered with the shield. Others stood behind Albert. The troops of the Duke were shocked that the team members were not trying to escape now instead they were walking toward the bigger troops.

The first grenade fell in their feet the second follow. Jake was working faster. After throwing two at the left then right, both sides suddenly burst. The troops scattered. Many fell dead or their bodies got mutilated. They were looking horrible.

Team members bent under the shield. The blast did not hurt them anyway. Jake stepped ahead. He was not going to stop until the nearest troops should evacuate. Those who tried to near or circle around faced the blast. Jake made sure to not let them corner them.

The bigger troops started shooting guns at them.

Sashi thought to take part in this escape. "Beware as soon as we came in the middle the shield would no more useful for both ends. At that point Albert should change position and provide cover from back. Jake should increase the attacks. No matter if the area blast away we should not get damage." Team head spoke.

He was strictly keeping eyes at the formation and the minute detail. They were surrounded by the enemies. Team members were moving toward the street. Sashi broke street lamp with the arrow.

The near houses were destroyed and the troops were unable to reach near them. "This will be the last grenade. I will throw ammunition pouch first and reserve this grenade." He informed and threw ammunition pouch. The impact of this was three times stronger.

Many soldiers fell dead and complete silent prevailed everywhere. The Duke went back in his mansion after seeing from distance. He ordered to close the single path of the Itaten Farm. This path led toward the first tower at the edges of the Itaten Farm.

Flame tower was the weakness of the Duke as well as king. After knowing that Ashmorn placed her precious tears in the Towers, it brought threat for the king.

Through the tears the Runners could steal Ashmorn. The arena runners were bent on to destroy the king and his rule. They were rebels and wherever the security of the Empire found them they would be killed. The duke wanted to capture them then execute at the square in order to earn the appreciation of the king.

It seemed his wish would remain wannabe till he killed them with the help of strong security. Currently the team members were not even injured much less with heavy damage waiting for death.

Duke was sure that they would not be able to find path toward Flame tower easily. Only few trusted people in the mansion were aware about it.

Itaten Farm was designed to keep the Flame tower hidden from outsider's approach. It was true that none of the team member would be able to find path however they were in a team they could solve impossible problems too.

The entrance was no more crowded with the troops but the dead bodies. The huge area turned upside down because of the destruction. The remaining alive soldiers were not in condition to stop them. Albert kept the shield active. They were moving away from the battle area.

If the things remained smooth they will be able to find hidden niche and plan their advancement. Itaten farm was big place to begin with. They did not want to get lost in it. Team head was sure that someone was keeping eyes at their activities.

It was night and the area was strange for them. They did not want to end up in some trap. A slave was looking at the duke. The slave was escaped from the mansion previous day after knowing that a couple from his family was selected for the inhumane rituals.

He was loyal toward the Duke however after knowing that his family was facing injustice he thought to seek help from the arena runners. The Duke was powerful and if slave beg mercy the duke would not listen. Only arena runners could save his family thinking this he was hiding here in hope that the area runners should enter in the Itaten Farm.

He was glad that they were able to defeat huge army of soldiers.
