Red Rider 9

Eleventh quest

Ahram returned after making sure that the area was clear and none of the enemies were in the surroundings. "We will move now. The enemy perhaps wanted to attack during the journey." Junan announced.

It was gesture for the hidden team members to remain hidden. They won the battle because of them. Albert deactivated the shield and the tunneled cards fell from it.

He did not need to pluck them out one by one. The merchant stood up from the ground. He looked at the square. Two of the lamp poles fell because of the battle..

The fountain in the middle was still flowing as ever. It did not mind the battle or the dead riders. Also none of them took the fountain questionable in the middle of the square. Well most of squares were decorated this way.

Just that the nose of the water bird was cut during some card attack. None of them talked about anything particular. They wanted to keep strict eye at the surrounding.

The second square would be last resort where boss could battle with the team members and kill the merchant.

"I think the boss is powerful. Perhaps he learned the usage of the card or may I say he learned the abuse of the card." Orin whispered so that only Clark could hear him.

Every quest has the boss that held the ownership of the card that was temporary. Basically they were using the card against others or misusing. In both ways it was against the purpose of the card.

This was the reason that the cards should be collected and sent back in the Theola box. In return the Theola box would give rewards whoever did this effort.

The other two teams were unable to survive so this third team was willing to complete the task and every quest.

This was eleventh quest. The team collected ten cards until now. The method of card collection was different in each quest. It depended on the type of bosses.

"You are right. It would be tough to get the card from the boss. Imagine the underlings knew the skill to give us headache what would happen when the boss would appear. I am only concerned about his skill type and the level." Clark answered in low voice.

…

Junan mentally compared the skill of the underlings of the boss and then the boss. He wanted to understand the expected difference and what type of precaution could save from bad day.

It was necessary. They were heading toward the second square. There was no doubt that the boss wanted to kill the merchant so he would definitely appear. The question was how much he could use card in the battle.

For example if he destroyed the card in his foolishness just to win the battle then all efforts would go to gutter. The card was equally necessary. Junan looked at the team members. He wanted to select someone sharp.

In case the boss wanted to use the utmost force of the card and destroy it then the hidden team members should stop him however as to what method would work, he was not sure.

Junan sighed. Ahram was perfect because of his weapon. It could do wonder in the middle of the chaos. Of course team head did not want to skip the battle or find secret way to defeat the boss.

He only wanted to secure the card as well as the merchant.

There was high chance that the boss would bring rest of the underlings too. This would add up the pressure in the battle. The underlings were learned in two types of skills while the boss must be well versed with the force of the card.

In this scenario the team members would face utmost trouble. "Ahram you will chase the boss. Your responsibility is to kill the boss if he tried to destroy the card during the bigger attack. The battle would be mess at the second square. Also go and inform Jake. He should attack with grenades no matter if he needed to change the location." Junan spoke.

He did not want longer battle. In the previous battle at the first square he was troubled because the battle took long time. Junan got curious why the card attacks were not ending.

Usually these types of weapons have cool down. The gun has cool down. The cards should have cool down too. It made Junan go mad. He was unable to contain his curiosity.

The cards were raining. He was hoping that the attack would stop but it did not.

He checked some of the stat.

"Perhaps the developers intentionally granted the skill to increase the difficulty level." Junan murmured. There was no other explanation in his brain.

For this it was necessary to prepare earlier.

If the battle prolonged then the overall limitation of the time would ruin their next three quests. There was only one day left to complete the third level of the portal. It was up to the team and the team head how they wanted to save their time and effort.

"We have proper weapons just that needed new and agile formation." Junan took deep breath and concluded. His actions got the attention of Albert. Albert could see the concern of the team head.

He checked the remaining time. They were much engrossed to understand the requirement of the quest that forgot to comply with the limitations of the time.

Junan spoke loud, "Orin and Clark, there is no need to remain at the front. Come here and follow the normal formation." Team head planned something to tackle the wave of the cards and how to get rid the enemies.

Since the time was short, he wanted to use the similar formation that he made to kill the large numbers of monsters or creatures. The separate attacks would not do wonders in the short time.

If he could not change the formation at the right time then there would be many moments of regret in the expected battle.

Orin and Clark slowed their pace. Ahram went to hide and keep eyes at the enemies. He also informed Jake about the orders of the team head. Jake understood the intentions of the team head.

They knew battles took longer duration no matter how faster they act or attack. "So the team head decided to do some fireworks. Would not it damage the real car?" Sashi heard the order and asked Jake.

Normally grenade or rdx attacks destroy regardless of the importance of the few things. Her question was simple and to the point. "The team head knew that I would care the card first and then attack so he did not add this advice in the order." Jake soberly answered.

Sashi lifted up her brows and nodded.

She slightly smiled at the fact that she did not think about aspect of the order and simply asked the boy.

Jake decided that he would not attack at the boss instead he would take responsibility to kill the other riders. It would reduce burden on the team members and they would be able to tackle the boss. "If you are going to kill underlings then I will shot arrows at the boss. The other team members are in front and their weapons could defense against the long range." Sashi commented.

The words of the younger player gave her smart idea to follow. This time they were facing the enemy with long range card weapon. However the team members were having mix of weapons according to their professions.

It would be troublesome to attack when one was working for defense first.

Jake nodded. This idea could be helpful against the boss.

They kept the journey. Jake and Sashi were careful so that the enemy should not locate them. Ahram kept hidden.

Junan was done ordering the new formation.

…

Re rider took another path to stop the security member by confronting them suddenly. He wanted to block their path at the second square.

In his eyes the security members would retreat seeing so many riders attacking them. It would give the red rider some satisfaction. He wanted to see fear on their faces before killing them.

His decision might give advantage to the team members because of their new formation. The boss was oblivious instead happy.

Both parties were heading at the same place with different motif.

The merchant felt his throat dry. The tension was rising up. He could feel it. Mendon saw how the security member was guiding others. He seemed very professional.

"You must be new recruit in the city." Mendon asked Junan.

Junan side smiled and nodded. "Indeed city needed new recruits so that the ruthless criminals get punishments." Junan answered. His answer surprised Mendon.

He was impressed. "I am still unsure why red rider wanted to kill me?" Mendon murmured. He did not speak loud because he was not sure why security members were putting this much effort.
