Chapter 740: Chapter 470 The Impromptu Ambush

"So Lord Wolte is our new patron?" Zieg, the commander of the Dark Templars, said as he and the fellow dark templars knelt down in front of Baphomet.

"Yes, I Baphomet had sworn my allegiances towards our new liege," Baphomet said as he introduced the anthropomorphic tank to the rest of the Dark Templars.

"For a slug to turn into a deadly construct of death!! Now I understand why Sir Baphomet wanted to pledge its allegiance towards Lord Wolte!" Zieg commented, and every other Dark Templars echoed the same sentiments.

"You all humble me with your praises. I, however, believe that words should be matched with actions. I see that some of you are having doubts in your eyes despite your leader's decision now to worship me." Lord Wolte said as he eyed at a few of the dark templars behind Zieg.

"Who is it!" Zieg turned its back at his followers. "Who dares to question my position ?!" His followers immediately lowered their heads and said no in unison.

"Calm down Zieg. Calm down. Portraying authority at the right times is essential for a leader, but if you misused such power, it would only create doubts among your people. They have the right to suspect how this construct which I named myself as the Metal Slug Tank would have the same if not stronger ability than Baphomet. So, let's put it to the test!" Lord Wolte explained to Zieg.

"How do you propose we do so?" Baphomet, who was standing beside Wolte questioned him.

"Easy, let's go crush some rats." Lord Wolte said with delight.

"Where? We are not familiar with the territory at all." Zieg replied with a lingering regret not to scout in advance before they meet up with the supposed Silver Mage.

"Then we take Uote Town back from the hands of the Demon Rats." Silver who was lurking around hoping to speak more to Zieg, had spoken out. "The last I heard, Sebastia had taken the Demon Rat military leaders of the Uote Town to the capital. Their guards would not stand an unexpected assault against our attacks.

"You mean attack now? now?" Zieg questioned the validity of the plan, but Lord Wolte stepped up, hearing its an excellent opportunity for him to shine.

"Why not? Let's get going. Don't worry, if you die. just wake up and repeat again." Lord Wolte said, and Baphomet laughed at the absurdity of the situation.

"Bro! That is so typical of you. So fearless of death even at such an old age. Very well! I Baphomet will personally join you in battle as well!" Baphomet stretched his wings and roared excitedly.

"As expected of our new Patreon! Dark Templars, what say you?!" Zieg roused up the battle spirit within them by slamming his sword to his shield. The Dark Templars who were apprehensive at first became emboldened when they heard that they could battle against the Demon Rats.

"Very well, I will tell my cousin about it! I will be right back immediately!" Silver said as Metal Slug Tank began to learn the type of tactics and formations from the Dark Templars while waiting for Silver's reply. After all, they were not the ones capable of transporting or teleporting back to the Farming world.

"YOU WHAT?" Gold's eyes were wide open when he heard Silver's proposal.

"You did say your Master wanted you to assist the rebellion. We are just using the Dark Templars as our diversion to see the reaction of their defences. No blame will be placed at Sebastia since it could be seen as the Dark Templars are having their revenge by attacking back against the Demon Rats." Silver tried to explain his rationale to his cousin.

"Even if we were able to occupy the town, there will be attempts to overtake it again by the Demon Rats from other towns! How foolish can you get!" Gold replied and Silver shook his finger.

"That is where you might be wrong. We can use this as an experiment to see how the demon rats retaliate, and it would be a good data for future resistance fights." Silver state his reasons with Gold once again.

"So you want to use the townsfolk as collateral damage? Did you think of them? Then how are we any better than those Demon Rats if we destroy their homes?!" Gold said as he slammed the table.

"I believe…the Dark Templars will be careful…"

"Urgh! And you already riled them up for battle. If we say no to them, they will distrust us in the future." Gold said as he scratched his head, having to deal with a troublesome dilemma.

"You did say your master can command them to be obedient…" Silver whispered.

"Does not mean that he will use it that way! Like I say, if we do that, how are we any better than…URGHH!" Gold knew the advantages of an ambush attack right now since Sebastia had reported to him they were already on the way to the capital. Plus the morning dawn had yet to arrive, causing any guard patrol to be at the most vulnerable period.

"Let me…consult Yun first." Gold finally calmed down and sent a System Channel transmission to Yun. Upon listening to the plight they were in, the first thing Yun did was portal into their werejackal mansion and slapped Silver on the face.

"Always notify your commanding leader before doing any actions of your own. Or you risk being court martial." Yun said, and Silver was clearly upset from that sudden slap.

"That is why I came to him and told him the plan!" Silver said, and Yun folded her arms and stared at him.

"It is because you do not have the capability to teleport. That is why you came to Gold. I am not dumb. If you were able to do so, you would not be here asking him for his help. Besides, if everyone acts like you, there will be no discipline within the organisation." Yun said, and Silver kept quiet while obviously angry for being blamed.

"Yun, Mdm. Please forgive him. Despite his actions, his intentions were for the town. Silver had been trying hard to survive all these while and was thinking for the liberation of the townsfolk. He is just not mature enough to know the consequences that he had incurred." Gold tried to protect his cousin from Yun's fury.

"Indeed. He does not." Yun sighed once before she looked at Silver in the eye once more.

"Thus, I am authorising this operation. Any civilian death will be on your head. You might not be able to die, which makes our punishment more than enough as a warning for your future actions." Yun said as she called out Que Er to appear in front of them. "But I will not let you die so badly. Que Er, provide them with sufficient Magpies. How they use these birds for communication is their own business."

"Understood, Yun." Que Er who was now in the comfort of modern clothes, made Silver realised that such a beauty could exist in this world. Yun nodded at Gold, giving him permission to oversee the impromptu mission before returning to run the shop for Jin.

"Erm, don't bother. She is at least a few thousand years older than you." Gold saw how Silver was enthralled by Que Er's mature beauty and discourage him, so he would not have the idea of even trying. Yet, the little teenage boy continued to stare at her, causing Gold's words to fall into deaf ears.

"Gold, that is your cousin?" Que Er said as she instantly knew what kind of expression the little teenage boy was looking at her with.

"Please go easy on him…he is still too naïve despite his wits." Gold replied as he hit Silver on his head and told him to bring the Dark Templars outside his mansion. Silver understood and relayed the message to the Dark Templars.

"Hahah, I kind of figured." Lord Wolte said as he already knew the kind of master he was serving. "But I did not expect them to make such a big ruckus about it. Guess its also good. Allow you to grow too."

"I don't think people grow by having their heads cut off." Silver was disgruntled, and yet Zieg also understood where Gold was coming from.

"Do not worry, we are at the side of the people. After all, we seek justice for them. We will not let them be harmed during our fight." Zieg patted Silver as they walked towards the mansion.

"Well, your justice is a bit skewed, so don't mind me doubting you." Silver thought to himself as Zieg continued to ramble.

"I had been suggesting some ways to let the people know that we are not here to harm them…but it seems that you have a better solution behind you." Lord Wolte eyed at Que Er, the Magpie Queen and bowed with his tank form a little out of respect for her.

"At the very least, you know your manners, unlike this boy." Que Er spoke with an arrogant tone in order to dissuade Silver from ever liking her. Yet, she did not know that Sliver was starting to like her more when she revealed her enchanting voice.

"Wolte! You better not destroy any buildings or no food from my kitchen at all!" Gold shouted at him as they approached the front gates of the Werejackal's mansion.

"Damage them a little?" Lord Wolte asked for some compromise, and Gold reluctantly agreed, knowing that the Metal Slug Tank wanted to rampage a little.

"We only have that much budget from Yun to repair the area plus if any civilians got injured, she would deduct 1000 dungeon dollars from our budget." Gold said as he eyed at Silver again.

"I know! I know!" Silver gave a partial frown at the side of his face while Gold began to obtain the permission from the System to create the portal for them to enter.

"I will be teleporting you guys to the Uote Town's Guard Quarters. Sebastia had sent me the coordinates to that area before she left for the capital. And yes, you can destroy that building there. But I wish you do not, as you can use that to hold your grounds." Gold explained his mission objectives to the rest.

"Ahhhh I see! Clever rascal. Holding their guard quarters and the other patrols will come to reinforce it. Hold onto the building, and we can possibly reduce the civilian casualty to none as well. Good idea." Lord Wolte said and the Dark Templars also wholeheartedly agreed to the plan.

"Silver, before you go, wear this mask. It is to prevent you from being identified." Gold said, and Silver understood why.

It was to remain dead.

Else if the word had spread that the Silver Mage was still alive, there might be consequences for Sebastia. (Although he was tempted to get even at her someday.)

"If not, what are you guys waiting for? Let's get going! Lord Wolte, remember we are doing this all for you! You better prove yourself to be the worthy patron for those Dark Templars!" Gold cast a wide enough portal the Metal Slug Tank to enter.

"What are you talking about? I will succeed." The newly evolved Lord Wolte was more confident than ever.
