Red Rider 6

Eleventh quest

Albert and Orin were running in the middle of the race area to come and help Ahram. They saw that the enemies were not in numbers so they remained at the alert in case more enemies join in. the riders escaped.

They were responsible to inform the real red rider. "We are moving now." Junan spoke in loud voice so that two team members standing at the exit should listen.

It was safety measure. Sashi and Clark returned. They would remain in the rear and provide cover till they leave through the hidden exit. It was just at the opposite of the common exit. No one used it because of the red riders..

Now the team members would use it to leave. Junan and others were sure that it would bring the attention of the enemy so they were ready to tackle as long as the boss showed up.

Jake was at the entrance of the red riders however the winner did not bring any trouble. He gathered the reward and left the race area as if he was in hurry.

Jake could see that the team head and the others were coming toward the entry point. He understood that team head found the merchant. This increased the responsibility for everyone.

Currently the enemy was nowhere however they were at the edges of the city. One could tell that the organizers thoughtfully selected this place for competition, there was city at the opposite of fields.

"We will move toward the city." Albert looked at Junan and understood his gesture. Junan did not directly want to give any order because it would make the merchant suspicious about them.

He was ready to trust due to their appearance of security members. In case of suspicion he might try to escape and fell in the hands of the enemy.

Since he was important npc for the team quest, they should not let him go. The merchant saw the security members very alert. He still felt some suspicion because it was something he never witnessed in the past six months.

Jake distanced because he was also responsible to provide cover. Only four team members walked at both sides of the merchant.

…

The red riders hurried and reached the boss. They told about the newly recruited security members and the way they protected the merchant. The boss got furious. Today his perfect plan failed due to some stupid security members.

Until now he never appeared openly because he could bribe anyone however the new recruits might not get the offer of heavy bribe instead face his frightening attacks of the card.

"I will personally chop off their heads. However the merchant should not leave the city boundary. I won't be able to capture and kill him in another city. Go and stop him at any cost." The boss ordered angrily.

He did not want to immediately appear instead confuse the merchant then suddenly attack. The boss changed his mind. His earlier plans were different but now that someone interrupted so he would directly kill the merchant later battle with the security members and kill them. "The merchant should die first." The boss held the card in his hand and shouted with hatred.

He had been waiting this day to take revenge from the merchant. "Go and search where they are heading or what path they took?" He ordered one of the fake red riders' team to chase the merchant and the security members.

The boss would take the similar path however he wanted to remain hidden till he attacked at the merchant.

…

Team members were heading toward the first square. The city was not small place and they need to walk at the other end to reach the boundary of the city so that merchant could enter in the next city.

There were total three squares. The first square led toward the middle of the city while the second square separated two main paths one led toward the third square while the other led toward the round road of the city.

They knew which path they should take to reach at the boundary. The fat merchant wanted to run however it was not easy despite that fact that he was worried for his life.

Orin walked ahead of the team when team head gestured him. Jake replaced his place with Sashi for providing cover. Orin could open the book of detection and get the clue from it by using exp.

The book of detection guided to reach the first square. The path was also mentioned clearly. Orin read it to tell the team head. He was feeling frustrated to use his exp however the clues were perfect which lessened his worry. Since he knew the path now so he was responsible to walk ahead of them.

"Get ready we will face battle at the first square." Junan thought about the possible scenario. He was sure that the boss might know which path they would take.

Junan was thinking about the reason why the boss wanted to kill the merchant while the game said that the merchant 'innocent' should not die.

If the boss was going to kill then he would come with his team. Thinking this Junan reordered the formation of the team. Albert walked near the merchant. "The shield would help in the blind attack. The team members would certainly stop the boss before any damage." Junan spoke. Albert nodded.

Team members were burning at their heels. They did not want the merchant to get any damage for the sake of their quest perks. Two teams of the red riders came to distract the security members so that boss could attack at the merchant.

Boss found out the trails and he was shocked that the security members were using open path for the escape. For him it was dumbest decision and showed the inexperienced behavior of the security members.

The experienced security members would choose safest and hidden path to make the escape possible at least.
