Knight Lords: Infinite Simulation and the Path of Light

Chapter 85 Free Resistance Army

"Commander Kubasa, we have started the operation according to the original plan. So far, everything is going smoothly and there have been no unexpected situations."

The middle-aged man standing on the high-rise building nodded as he looked at the firelight below. The evening breeze blew up his cloak, revealing his full suit of armor underneath.

"Have you found that idiot Oliver yet?"

The masked man standing at the back quickly replied:
"Reporting to the commander. Joey Hart's reconnaissance team has located that idiot's whereabouts. He's at the newly opened bathhouse in town, called Goya Bathhouse."

"He certainly knows how to enjoy life! Baron Oliver, let's go see if this greedy idiot knows how foolish he's been."

As Kubasi finished speaking, the dozen or so people standing on the roof followed him down.

Goya Baths - Lobby
Haven and his companion, already dressed, were trapped in the lobby with a group of customers, while several fully armed mercenaries guarded the door, preventing anyone from leaving.

"What are you doing? Let us out."

"What happened? What happened outside?"

"I want to get out! Let me out and call your manager over here."

At this moment, Ampar, who arrived late, went to the second-floor platform and shouted down at the noisy crowd below:
"Please be quiet, everyone. I am Ampar, the manager of Goya Bath. According to our guards on duty outside, there are suspected robbers in the town, and there are fires in several places. The situation is unclear at the moment. Please stay quietly in the bath. The bath will protect your safety."

Upon hearing Ampar's words, the previously noisy crowd gradually quieted down.

"Alright, distinguished guests, please wait in our rest area for a moment. Once the situation outside becomes clear, a staff member will come to inform you."

Just as everyone in the lobby was following the staff to the rest area, a commotion broke out outside. After a few screams, the tightly closed door was suddenly smashed open, leaving a large hole.

Through the large hole in the door, a large group of people could be seen standing outside. At this moment, the people in the hall could finally hear what the people outside were saying.

“Listen up, you people inside. We are the Freedom Resistance Army. We don’t want to harm innocent people here. We just want that stupid pig Oliver dead. Get down on your feet and don’t try to resist.”

The crowd, which had just calmed down, suddenly erupted again, and the atmosphere in the hall instantly became tense. But before anyone could react, the people outside walked in with weapons.

"All unrelated personnel, squat down. I guarantee your safety."

Kubasi's face was frosty, his eyes cold and emotionless as he looked at the crowd standing in the hall, followed by dozens of warriors in full armor.

"I wonder which one of you is in charge of this place? I heard that Baron Oliver is here. Would you mind if His Excellency came out?"

Seeing everyone looking at him, Ampar forced a smile and answered:
"Oh dear, may I ask how to address this esteemed gentleman? I am Ampar, the manager of this bathhouse. It is truly an honor for us to have you patronize our Goya Bathhouse. May I ask what business you have with Lord Oliver at the bathhouse?"

Kubasi frowned as he looked at Ampar, who was standing on the second-floor platform. For some reason, he found this smiling guy extremely annoying. "Enough with the nonsense. Let Oliver come out. My patience has its limits."

Seeing Kubasi's cold words, Ampar's smile vanished, and he looked down at the latter:
“Baron Oliver is an important guest of ours. He is currently busy and unable to see you. You should give up. The guards will be here soon, and if you don’t run now, you won’t be able to escape.”

"Hahahaha~ What an interesting comment! Take action! Kill all those who dare to resist!"

As Kubasi coldly gave the order, the soldiers standing behind drew their weapons and rushed into the bath. Haven and his companion, hiding in a corner, watched in bewilderment as the masked men fought with the guards.

"Mr. Will, what do we do now?"

"What do we do? We'll just have to deal with it! Didn't the leader say that as long as we behave, we'll be fine? Hopefully, he's a man of his word."

"Mr. Will, these guys are amazing! They took down those dozen or so guards in no time."

Listening to Lori's words, Haven couldn't help but nod in confirmation. This group was indeed impressive; their teamwork was perfect! It was quite similar, quite similar indeed~
"Holy crap~ They look like soldiers from the legion."

Lori was also taken aback by Havent's words.

“What? Mr. Will, you mean they are the local garrison? Then why would they do this?”

Looking at the few dozen masked men remaining guarding them in the hall, Haven glanced at the exit and whispered in reply:
“They might not be the local garrison. I recall the Black Horse Daily mentioning that the garrison in Windhelm City mutinied for unknown reasons. They are probably the ones who mutinied.”

On the other side, Kubasi and his men caught up with the fleeing Ampar. After the two guards blocking his way were dealt with, Ampar was left alone.

“I’m sorry, Director Ampar, I didn’t want things to turn out this way either. Tell me where that idiot Oliver is, and I can still guarantee your safety.”

Despite being cornered, Ampar did not panic when the sword was pointed at his neck; instead, he looked at the group with a smile on his face.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I'm just a nobody, it's no big deal if I die. But I didn't expect you guys to be so bold. After you hanged the Windhelm City Lord, instead of thinking about leaving this place quickly, you actually dared to show up."

Kubasi narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing Ampar's words, stepped forward, pushed aside the longsword held by his subordinate, looked him up and down, and slowly said:
"I see. No wonder you had that disgusting smell. It was from those maggots. In that case, I have no qualms about killing you."

"Hahahaha, you idiots, you dare to dream of freedom? As long as you're a pawn, you'll always be a pawn."

Seeing Ampar's arrogant and unrestrained behavior, Kubasi drew his sword and swiftly slashed at Ampar's neck. However, no blood gushed out as the blade sliced ​​through Ampar's neck. Ampar's body was punctured like a bubble and quickly dissipated on the spot.

Seeing the scene before him, Kubasi frowned and sheathed his sword.
"Damn it, a little trick of the mage? Never mind, let's keep searching. Oliver, that greedy fat pig, must be here."

"Yes, Commander!"
