Red Rider 7

Eleventh quest

The open path could be perfect for the attack, thinking this boss directly headed toward the first square.

He decided to make the first attack as the experiment. For this he was sending four teams of the red riders. Those would attack and see what type of counter defense the security members show up.

This would help understand the boss how to tackle them in the next attack. He was quite scheming in this aspect.

Junan was alert. After ordering Albert for the shield protection he was waiting for the enemies to appear. Team members and the merchant were heading toward the first square. They were almost there so the threat level was at the peak..

Junan surveyed his surroundings carefully. The signs of the attack were visible. The street lamps flickered with the wind. The square was in front.

Junan tightened his grip on the sword. Four teams of the red riders appeared from the four sides of the roads. They were pretty prepared for real battle because the boss ordered not to disappoint.

The square silently watched as if the battle result would decide the fate of the square. Sashi and Jake also looked at the four teams. From the looks they were here to test the caliber of the team members.

Orin stopped at the square because the four teams blocked path from all four sides. Clark looked at the team head. Since others were at various locations with their responsibilities so Clark would provide cover to the team head.

The team head was vital part of the team. They vowed to protect the team head in every tense situation. There was blunt saying in the real world, 'If the companions cannot protect the leader then they were bound to face losses one after the other'

This was the saying that the owner of the team reminded them before entering in the portal level. Team members always kept in their brains that the team head was important to lead them.

The presence of the team head was the peak of their strength to show their force in each level. Because they were sincere to protect the team head, this was the reason that the team was able to survive in each quest.

Junan always took strong decision to tackle the worry. Sometimes it was hard to follow however right after the completion of the quest everyone admitted the worth of the decision of the team head.

Team members got addicted to accept the strongest and weirdest orders of the team head. It was apparent that they might not accept if the team head suddenly fell in any level. The fall of the team head would shatter the strength of the team.

Perhaps half of the team members would face it difficult to accept any other team member as the head. Junan deserved this level of respect from the team members.

The square held its breath to witness the fierce battle. It had been long time that the security members ever worked sincerely for the safety of the civilians.

The merchant was sweating with the tension. He was unsure whether to follow the security member was a good decision or stupidity. However he was ready to die in case the security members failed. In his eyes chances were at the lowest point.

He was not confident about the performance of the security members.

The four teams of the red riders attacked at once from all sides. For the riders all of them were security members fairly active today. The cards flickered in the air.

Albert spread the shield. His task was clear and tough. The merchant should not get damage while the other team members would handle the rest of the enemies.

"Seriously they are using cards for the attack. Exactly what type of skill it could be?" Clark commented after seeing the rain of the cards. They could not take the card attack easy because the damage level was not low. It could give the injury similar of the sword in case the riders were enough learned.

Junan took deep breath. He was not worried to care for the sudden attack. Team head focused to use the sword with his best controls. The cards were not big weapon so the controls should be super accurate. The swing in the middle of the move helped. The card could not touch his cheeks. Several cards came in his way.

There were various signs on the cards as if something written clearly however he was unable to understand the text.

Junan swayed his sword and three cards got smoothly cut in the middle. The cards lost the skill and fell on the ground. For Junan it resembled with the slow motion action because his controls and the brain was working super-fast to match the pace of the attack.

The cards soared in every direction. The riders seemed proficient with the card skill. Junan moved at his left to look at Clark. Clark could not help but flash foolish smile.

He was engrossed to witness how the team leader was showing the mastery of his controls. The perfection did not let any card bring damage.

"My hammer perhaps is not suitable for the cards attack." Clark scratched his head and commented.

Junan put the sword in front when few card came right at his chest. "You can use secondary weapon. It is not necessary to just worry the cards, go ahead and smash your hammer at the riders." Junan spoke and chuckled.

He was quite amused at the reaction of this experienced Clark. "I thought about it but then someone should be here with you." Clark answered.

He was hesitating because Ahram was at some distance. Albert was busy. Sashi and Jake were also at distance. Orin was at the far end of the square. He was leading ahead so naturally when the riders appeared he could not retreat.

His mace was bulky and tackling the card attack was different in all terms. It was the persistence and stubbornness that he was still battling there.
