Chapter 316: Leaving The City Pt.1

It hadn't been long after he climbed down from the stage that they had started to move out of the barrier. Soon after that Donny found that they had entered the Gate room where his group had been. A second after they walked in Rigbis had someone open the gate without even checking if it was safe and gave the order for them to go outside.

Donny understood they were in a hurry and that there wasn't really a way to make this safe but he felt just a few seconds to check outside first could have made this process much safer for them. As they were stepping out Donny took a look towards the sky to see if the Barrier was really gone or not.

Seeing the sky Donny tried to tell what time it was but the sky was kind of cloudy so he couldn't tell if the sun was coming up or going down. Turning to Keel Donny asked. "Do you know what time it is right now?" Keel took a brief look at his timepiece before answering. "It's morning."

That had been the answer he was hoping for since it would give them a full day before another night which was when Demon Worshipers tended to attack. He was sure they would attack at day if it was necessary but the sun was a comforting thing to see after all this time in the barrier.

Sadly none of them had time to stand around and watch the sunrise since Rigbis was still leading them away from the fortress. As they were leaving the fortress behind Donny thought back to the plan Rigbis had told them which had included the fortress protecting them as they escaped.

This made him want to keep looking over his shoulder so he wouldn't miss anything that happened even though he knew he should look where he was going. This changed when he heard someone scream for help and his head quickly snapped forward thinking they were being attacked already.

It was fine though since they had the golem and the arm bridge worked fine the first time. It took enough time for it to form into a bridge that they had to stop to wait but it was only like a minute so he was sure it would be fine. As they were crossing over the second Donny felt the people behind him start to push and knew it had to be bad news so he yelled for the people in front of him to go as fast as they could.

When he got to the highest part of the bridge he looked over his shoulder to see he had been right and something was happening in the back of the group. Like always it was hard to tell from a distance because undead looked like regular people but he could see some type of fight had broken out.

He didn't know if this had been an internal attack by another hidden demon worshiper or if these people had rushed out from the surrounding buildings but it didn't end up mattering because soon after he looked back he heard a loud noise and when he looked up at the golem to see if it had been what cased it he saw it had moved the rest of its body and the arm that wasn't a bridge was now down on the ground.

He couldn't really see what had happened because he had already passed over the tentacle but he could put together the golem had acted to protect them like Rigbis had said it would. It had taken a few seconds but that was considered a swift response in a situation where the two sides looked similar and you had to figure out who was bad and he was sure it had been fast enough to save the ones who were fighting in the back of the group.

He had seen the intensity of the fight and it wouldn't have ended in just a few seconds if the golem hadn't gotten involved. It wasn't long before they were attacked again and this time it was in front of him so Donny got a good look at how the ones who attacked them had come from the surroundings and not from within their group.

This didn't mean the last one had started like this but he felt it made the chances that it did better. It didn't take long for the undead that came towards them to get dealt with since there weren't a lot of them and it didn't really even cause the group to stop moving. If this was all they had to deal with on the way out of the city they would be just fine.

He really didn't think whoever was controlling the undead would care too much about them since there were only around 400 of them at this point and in the grand scheme trying to kill them was more of a hassle than it was worth with the golem here. If they sent all the undead they had in this part of the city at them they would probably kill less people than keeping them split up to catch the other people trying to get out of the city.

In the short amount of time they had been walking they had already seen a few hundred fresh bodies and he was sure there would be more as they got closer to the edge of the city since if he was trying to catch people he would put his troops near the wall. It would be much easier to spot them since they would have to go out into the open to climb the wall.
