Chapter 57 - 56

The militia aimed their bows at us, and the moment they fire i charged at them. a guard was protecting the cell door. He tried to stab me with both hands, but i parried it to the wall making him drop it then i grabbed him and pulled him in.

Using him as a human shield, as much as i wish my plan worked, it didn't... they still fired at us, mostly at firestarter who took an arrow in the knee.

This reminds me of a certain scene... before they could notch another arrow i rushed at them slowly going outside the cell, still holding the hostage.

Then just frantically, yet carefully swinging my sword at them. Bringing all of them in front of me and none behind me. As they fill the man with arrows, one decided to rush me because i was guarded, he stabbed the man i was holding with a long sword.

He's attempting to pierce through him and stab me, but that would take too long and i just slit his throat with my sword.

Then another volley of arrows was fired, holding the dead body with great strength, i once more used him as a shield.

As another militia charges i got ready to defend, but firestarter got this one covered and stabbed him, extending his hand through the bars while holding his sword.

Then another militia rushed in to cut off his hand, he just pulled back making the militiaman miss. Then i threw my sword at him but he deflected it.

but firestarter does kill him by also stabbing him right through the neck. Rushing forward i grabbed another sword from the fallen, but before i could do so.

The militiamen notched another volley forcing me to grab another corpse shield. After the volley i grabbed another sword, another militia came rushing to me.

Firestarter tried to stab him but an arrow was ready to meet him this time, hitting his abdomen, then the rushing militia stopped by firestarter then attempted to cut his hands off in one fell swoop.

So i rushed him, i attempted to stab him but he somehow deflected my attack, it was a fake...

Then in quick succession he attempted to chop my head off, but firestarter saved me by stabbing his abdomen.

But he was met with another arrow, this time to his stomach. Collapsing out of exhaustion i was left on my own. I killed the man and took his bow which was strapped on his back.

Then the militia fired their last volley at me, where i just blocked them all with a corpse, then they charged at me. Taking an arrow on the ground i fire it at them hitting with great accuracy hitting one of them in the groin.

I then grabbed another sword to ready myself from their charge, this is all or nothing... then i saw hands coming from the cells grab the guards who were close to them.

Immobilizing them, 3 were immobilised, 2 0 now its a 1 vs 2... one if them tried to help his comrades but i killed him by throwing my sword at him... now its just one guy left, but something feels off... they sent untrained units towards us... even though they are militia, they wouldn't try to kill their comrades... it's as if... they were under control...
