Breaking The Fourth Walls (A Douluo Dalu Fanfic) - Chapter 53
General Pov…
After half an hour of running at top speed which surprised Tang san since he considered himself to be the fastest out of all his peers.
At first, he was surprised by Ma Hongjun as he was able to keep up with him and seemed to not be breaking a sweat, however, he then remembered about Oscar and saw that not only was he not getting tired but he seemed to be getting faster.
However, Tang san could tell that he was holding back his real speed for some reason, Tang san wanted to ask but he knew that time was of the essence.
He was informed by Flender and Liu Erlong that friends of theirs who were Oscars’ parents were captured and that Oscar had informed them that he would need his help.
Of course, Tang san had to convince Xiao Wu that he would help Oscar and that he would be back before she knew it which was hard until he told her that she could buy whatever she wanted from his own allowance at whatever price.
Tang san could swear that he saw money signs in her eyes as she shook her head and said “Tang san! How could you shamelessly say that everyone knows that helping a friend is greater than the need for money.”
Tang san at first was relieved and thought that his pockets were spared but what Xiao Wu said next destroyed any hope of his saving being spared, as she stuck her hand out and said, “Deposit fee.”
Tang san felt like crying his heart out as he handed half of all the money which he had made for the past 5 years.
Only then was Xiao Wu convinced and allowed him to help Oscar, although she was worried she also knew that Tang san was able to handle himself.
Meanwhile, Ma Hongjun who was running felt like he needed to eat something but the only thing he would get was Oscar’s slaps and that would force him to be content.
Along the way, the three saw giant trees that towered over the sky and stood at 50 meters in height with branches that stretched 10 meters in length connecting to other trees.
Within twenty minutes or so Oscar finally stopped and said, “There it is.”
He then landed right next to the runes which looked like a giant circle with a radius of 20 meters or so, Oscar then told Tang san and Ma Hongjun to step inside the circle.
As they did, Oscar then said, “I’m going to teleport us now I hope you guys didn’t eat anything before we got there, ready”
Oscar then activated spatial ability which seemed to link with the runes that would allow them to teleport Twenty-six miles away from their location.
Ma Hongjun however wanted to stop Oscar as he did have something to eat and that teleporting might make him puke or spill his guts.
Sadly he did not get the chance to as Oscar activated the runes and teleported all three of them to where Ao ken said the stronghold would be.
As they went through the runes Tang san made sure not to lose consciousness as he focused on Oscars figure as he kept repeating strange words.
Oscar, however, made sure that each of his incantations to use the runes were pronounced correctly as he needed to make sure that each of them made it through unharmed.
Meanwhile, Ma hongjun had both eyes in the back of his head already as he was simply limping through the entire process which was of no surprise to Oscar, as Ma hongjuns mental fortitude was too weak when it came to things other than food.
Then after four minutes or so, Oscar performed a final incantation as he made a sort of finishing action as he stood up separated his hands apart, and said, “We’ve arrived.” To tang san.
Tang san who was bȧrėly holding on saw a different scenery around him as he saw a field of grains in the middle of nowhere.
He then looked towards Oscar and asked, “Where are we, Oscar?”
Oscar looked towards him and replied, “We are twenty miles outside of Luo city.”
Tang san understood his part as it was crucial to the plan and it was what was needed to pull it off.
Whereas Ma hongjun was sweating at what his task given to him by Oscar was, in fact, he complained about how he would die and that he still die as a vɨrġɨn even though he had millions of admirers.
However, Oscar shut him up by promising to cook him five dishes of his choice free of charge, and as Ma hongjun heard that, Tang san could swear that he saw literal food symbols appearing within his eyes.
Then as three finally went over their plan for the final time, all three of them ran west at their top speed until they saw smoke coming from a certain location within the forest.
Oscar gestured for the others to pick up the pace, and within twenty minutes or so they had finally reached a wide infrastructure that was a hundred or more meters long.
Oscar then saw that the infrastructure had a ten-meter tall gate just as Ao ken had told him, he then looked back to Tang san and said, “Tang san you know what to do.”
Tang San nodded and said, “Oscar, be careful even though you might have obtained abilities that have far surpassed ordinary Auxiliary support types, this is spirit hall and I just hope that you are careful.”
Oscar smiled at how simple-minded Tang san was since he had no idea of his true capabilities, yet.
Oscar then turned to Ma Hongjun and said, “Ready!”
However, Ma Hongjun interrupted him and said, “Let’s just get it over with.”
Meanwhile, the sun had set and darkness had come, this increased Oscar and the others chance for the element of surprise.
However, inside the fort, a spirit hall worshipper had continued to beat a young boy for trying to defend an old man who couldn’t work anymore.
“How dare you touch me… I am a member of Spirit hall, filth like you should be grateful that I am even placing my foot on top of your head.” The spirit hall member said as he continued to beat him and the old man.
The young boy blocked his face from being kicked, however just as when he thought that his punishment was over, a beautiful young woman came out from the crowd behind the soldiers and shouted saying, “Ao Ren, Please stop… please stop.”
The boy named Ao ren looked up and saw the woman and said, “Big sister.”
The spirit hall member then smiled while walking towards Ao rens older sister and asked, “Well well well… and why should I stop?”
The young woman then slowly backed up and said, “Please he’ll die if you keep doing this.”
The spirit hall member smiled and said, “Oh, and what is in it for me if I do so.” While ċȧrėssing the woman’s cheek however just as he wad about to touch her lips a stone flew out of nowhere and hit him square in the face.
The spirit hall member ġrȯȧnėd in pain as he felt his face where a small cut was due to the rock which had hit him in his face.
He then said, “Don’t you dare touch my sister.” The spirit hall member infuriated ordered two guards to hold the boy down.
The spirit hall member then pulled his sword out from the waist and said, “I have been too kind to your kind who don’t know how to be grateful for what you are given and now you will die.”
Ao ren’s sister then ran towards her brother to try and protect him and just when the edge of the blade was three centimeters away from the woman’s back the woman prayed for someone to save her or something.
And just when she thought that death had arrived, something else fell from above the gate and landed on top of the spirit hall member.
Suddenly clouds of dust covered the entire scene, then two figures stood up and seemed to be doing something.
To the brother and sister who were in the center of the chaos heard a soft and tantalizing male voice saying, “God damn it, I just hope you cook me my favorite when we get back.” One of the figures said as he stood up and walked forward.
Then a voice that sounded like a man who seemed to exclude pressure by just talking said, “Don’t worry, for now, let’s just kill these Spirit hall bastards.”
