Axie Online

Chapter 46 - Infiltrate

It had been three hours since Rudy's arrival in Viredeta village using the Viredeta Teleport Scroll. During that time, Rudy also sneaked here and there checking every building that he thought was very suspicious.

The results of his observations so far can be ascertained that the players' suspicions about the Viredeta village are indeed true. So far Rudy had seen several Trolls, Goblins, Hobgoblins, Werewolf, Wolf, Colossal Wolf, Orc, and Skeleton strolling through the village streets.

Different from the regular Wolf, the Colossal Wolf was three times larger in size and had a minimum level of around the '40s. Because his level differed greatly from that of an ordinary Wolf, his stats were also higher so his strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Wolf.

Usually, these mob monsters ride Orcs, Hobgoblins, Ogres, or other types of monsters that have high intelligence. Rudy also saw several Colossal Wolf being ridden by several Orc figures.

From this, Rudy concluded that in this monster army there are monsters that use the Tamer Job Class, Silver-Class Job Class which is one of the advanced Job Classes from Hunter, and the like.

Job Class Tamer is a Job Class that is able to tame certain mob monsters so that they can be drawn into pets, mounts, or even friends. With the Tamer Class Job, the player can subdue as many mob monsters as he can and make pacts with the monsters, then use them as troops in battle.

Different from Summoners who can summon creatures from other dimensions as their subordinates, Tamers must tame, contract, develop, and nurture creatures that have been successfully tamed just like raising real animals in the real world.

Currently, Rudy is on one of the roofs of the house in Viredeta village. He is looking at the only farm in the village which is guarded by dozens of mob monsters with full concentration with an expression that shows his anger.

In the middle of the farm gathered the human NPCs who were treated like animals by the monsters. They were told to eat grass or eat used food, then for drinking water was taken from the Urine of the monsters.

Please note, for NPCs, urine and other metabolic wastes are not neutralized. The urine neutralization system only applies to players who are aware that Axie Online is just a virtual world.

For the natives of Viredeta village who are on the farm, inevitably they have to drink the urine of the monsters in order to survive. This is certainly not in accordance with the right to life of a human being that makes Rudy really a little angry.

He no longer cares about the remaining Byl he has, then buys a video recorder item called Video Recorder from the Axie Forum which costs around 10,000 Byl. Of course, after buying the item, Rudy immediately recorded all the events that could be recorded from the roof of the house where he is currently sitting.

“f*****g monsters. Ah no, I mean the developer is a jerk.”

Rudy said that the Axie Online development team made the Monstrous Invasion Event this terrible. Even though it was just a game, it was still too realistic for a player like him.

The incident that Rudy saw today was no longer s*****y, but it was appropriate to say that human farms were not even worthy of being compared to animal husbandry in the real world.

Rudy really wants to go down and s***h all the monsters that are around the farm, but he remembers his mission now is to scout not s*******r. The chances of success in raiding the Raid troops depended on him, he could not let go of his responsibility just because of his own selfish impulse.

Rudy could only silently watch as he continued to record the events at the farm while trying to suppress his anger.

After five minutes, the Video Recorder that Rudy used to record emitted a small sound indicating that the item had reached its limit. The video recorder that Rudy bought includes Low-Equipment, so the duration of the recording is only five minutes.

As soon as the recording period was up, Rudy sent it to Dalon who was at the Raid troop camp which was about a kilometer away from the village along with a message containing information about the types of monsters in this village.

Rudy didn't really know the exact number, but there was information from the previous reconnaissance team that there were approximately 10,000 mob monsters level 30 and below, while there were still around 5,000 monsters with level 30 and above. It was also aired on Axie News so many players knew about it.

“I've been stalking this place for three hours, so it's time for me to go back”

Muttering that in his heart, Rudy took the Checkpoint Teleport Scroll from his Inventory. But strangely, when he was about to activate the item he couldn't move like when he came to this place using the Viredeta Teleport Scroll. Rudy remained on the roof of the house he had been occupied for a long time.

"W-Why isn't it active?"

Rudy felt confused knowing the Checkpoint Teleport Scroll he was holding would not activate even though it had been activated. He closed his eyes and touched his right index finger to his forehead and then recalled what happened to this item until it couldn't be activated.

After a few seconds, Rudy found the answer to the problem. It turned out that the answer was just a simple activity that he had forgotten.

"That's right, I forgot to set a teleporting point at the campsite."

Realizing that, Rudy could only shake his head while letting out a wry smile remembering how stupid and forgetful he was. However, it didn't last long.

Rudy heard a commotion from the center of the village. With light and careful steps, Rudy immediately moved as quickly as possible without making much sound of footsteps towards the center of the village to determine what caused the commotion.

Arriving there, Rudy could see Goblins, Hobgoblins, Orcs, Werewolves, Trolls, Colossal Wolf, and Wolf gathering in the village square with a fountain in the center. He just watched from the roof of a house secretly so as not to be caught.

"My monster brethren! Today is the day we've been waiting for a long time!"

The loud voice came from an orc with thick blackish-purple skin, a slightly ugly face, a nose with two large holes facing forward, a pair of slightly pointed ears, wearing a mixture of leather and iron armor on the body and legs, and a large two-handed sword. hanging on his back.

Rudy closed his eyes and put all his concentration into his ears so he could hear the orc's voice more clearly.

"For so long our heads have been hunted by the royals on this continent to exchange for bags of money! Today we will repay them!"

The loud shouts of the other mob monsters greeted the statement from the orcs standing by the fountain. The calls seemed to be a response to approval and burning enthusiasm. Rudy started to look worried hearing this.

"I, Raevolg. The leader of the raid on Livetuna City appointed by Lord Maen'ra will lead us all to victory!!"

"Woohoo!!"

The passionate cheers from the crowd of monsters in the center of the village shook the ground and the air.

Rudy who heard it from a distance of approximately 50 meters was getting worried, but he immediately sent the latest information that he had just heard directly from the leader of the monsters to Dalon. Considering that currently Rudy couldn't use the Checkpoint Teleport Scroll due to his own carelessness, he didn't want to die in this place.

After feeling that he had enough information, Rudy began to jump from roof to roof very carefully while paying attention to his surroundings. There was no other choice for him to return this simple way because there was no other way.

"Intruder!!"

As Rudy was jumping from roof to house, he could hear a cry from another direction. There was seen a watchtower in which there were three Goblins armed with bows and arrows.

Seeing this, of course, made Rudy immediately accelerate and strengthen his running and jumping without paying attention to the sound of footsteps caused by his footprints. Even so, he is still trying to send a message to Dalon that says 'the attack will happen soon.

Rudy indeed wears Equipment that makes him look like a Goblin, but is there a Goblin that runs as fast as Rudy on the roof of a house that is even his own base? No, right?

The Goblins from the watchtower launched their arrows at Rudy who was running as fast as they could. One of the three arrows hit his shoulder, but the target didn't seem to care and continued running towards the exit.

"Oh! Getting hit by an arrow hurts this much, huh!?”

Even though he looked unconcerned, Rudy felt a little gloomy in his heart. He never expected to be like this just because of a small carelessness.

When Rudy was approaching the exit gate, he unexpectedly saw a dozen orcs with their giant two-handed axes each lined up to close the only way out for Rudy. This makes Rudy automatically stop his steps because he can't think of any other way out.

“s**t, I really am surrounded!”

There was only one way out, but it was already blocked by a dozen orcs in their level 40s and above.

"At this rate, there is only one choice! Make a way out with my strength!"

While shouting that, Rudy started running towards the orcs that were lined up blocking the exit. Even though in terms of level and quantity he was far behind all of them, but before trying it no one would know what the outcome would be.
