Chapter seven: Prison tower

Kaijo makes his way back in town and goes up the planks and rooftops to move ahead. He kills the undead on the way and makes his way to the town´s outskirts. He continues on and soon leaves the town. Now on a path leading up the stony cliff where the prison tower is located. The path is surrounded by some trees and covered in light mist. He goes into the forest after seeing smoke coming from there. He follows a beaten path and finds broken carts and a hut and fire on the floor. From the fire undead dogs run at him. Kaijo can kill them fast enough for them not to reach him. He enters the hut and finds a kettle on a fireplace and an item on the table in there. "Spell acquired: heal. Item description: a miracle that can heal a small amount of health. (10)" "Let´s equip that!" he says attuning the spell. He rests at the fireplace. He leaves the house and kills the undead dogs. He goes back to the main path and continues onward. As he approaches the tower the mist thickens. He uses his gust spell to blow the fog away. He continues on and keeps using the spell. He can see small golems on the path that are activated. "Small golem lvl10" He attacks him with his bow and leads them to him. He attacks but the weapon nor the arrow did a lot of damage. The golems attack him unbothered by his efforts. Kaijo uses the hilt of his scimitar to smash them taking a couple hits and killing them eventually. He can continue along the path. Soon the mist disappears and the path and prison tower ahead emerge. He can see carts and carriages on the way to the prison tower. Trapped in the carriage are multiple undead and dogs the undead accompanying them to the tower wear metal armor and helmets as well as spears and metal shields. Dragging the cart is a massive undead horse. Kaijo waits it out and looks around for potential attackers and paths into the tower. He can see some spikes on the tower and in a trench surrounding the area. They lower a drawbridge for the prisoners. Kaijo rushes in onto the drawbridge and ambushes the guards killing them one by one expending all of his stamina. He lets it recover but the undead and the dogs break out attacking him all at once he uses the scimitar to cut them up but takes some damage he spins around to get them off of him. "Hp:40/55". "+950 souls" He goes up to the gates and sees a side entrance and a lever for the drawbridge. The horse attacks Kaijo dealing massive damage. "Hp: 20/55". "Ouch!" Kaijo says backing off. The horse continues trashing around and he barely mages to dodge. He uses his arrows to shoot the horse in the eye. It starts stomping and kicking around in pain. He quickly gets his keys and opens the door leading inside and rushes into the stone corridor. He sits down and drinks his healing flask. "healing flask: 4" and his new heal spell. Healing him back to full. "Looks like tight hallways will be a problem to swing a scimitar around better swap it out for the rapier!" Kaijo says putting the scimitar away and equipping the rapier and dagger combo. He continues along the lit stone hallway. Until he stumbles upon some guards. The guards turn around and attack him straight away. He can kill them by trading blows but the shields absorb most of the damage. The spears pierce his body but so does he as well killing them off. "Hp: 35/55" He drinks another flask. "healing flask: 3." "+500 souls" He picks up the shield "Item acquired: Steel tower shield. Defense 100 (blocks 100% physcal damage at the expense of stamina) Item description: An ordinary tower shield made from steel and wood covers a large area of the body. " and replaces the dagger with it and picks up a spear. "Item acquired: Prison tower spear. Attack: 150. Item description: A spear made for containing undead. The tip is made from silver and conducts lighting to shock and deal damage to prisoners." "This will do better than my current loadout." he says walking along into a room filled with tables and banks. There are some guards sitting at the table sleeping. Kaijo ambushes one killing him but the other guards wake up and rush him. Kaijo blocks the attacks consuming most of his stamina. With the rest of his stamina he uses the spear in a sweaping motion dealing damage to the undead. He needs to recover stamina and the guards attack him. "Hp: 30 /55" His stamina recovers and he bashes the one of the guards shields with his own creating an opening. He pierces his body and turns around to block another spear attack and counters with his spear hitting the guard in the head killing him. The other two attack him again. This time he moves to the side to avoid the spears and moves behind them. He gets his scimitar out and slices them up with wide sweeping motions. "Phew! Finally done with them!" He says taking another swig of his healing flask. "Healing flask: 2" "+1.000 souls "I need to be careful not to run out of healing flasks." he says walking up some stairs opening some doors and seeing the courtyard of the prison tower. The pillars rise high and the ground is made from dirt with barrels lying around everywhere and platforms and multiple undead skewerd beheaded or hung and burned with fire among them are multiple undead with executioner axes, whips and one big one with a giant one handed butchering knife and wears a pointy helmet with cloth covering his face he wears nothing except some pants and a loincloth. All of them are covered in blood. He gets out his bow and shoots the small guys from up there. He kills all of the small fry and aggravates the big guy. He takes one of his dead allies and throw it at him. Kaijo dodges the body. The big guy moves to the wooden platform with a ladder leading down and destroys it with his knife. He falls down in front of the big guy. "Executioners henchman lvl.20" pops up in red. "Uh oh!" he says standing up. He attacks Kaijo. Kaijo manages to block but gets knocked to the ground dealing damage. "Hp: 30/ 50". He raises his arm to attack again but Kaijo dodges. He gets out his dagger and uses the spears reach to his advantage. He can poke safely whitout being in reach of the knife but his attacks are relentless reducing it´s hp to 75%. He rushes forward grabbing Kaijo with his big hand and shakes him around before throwing him at the ground readying his knife to smash down on him. "Hp:2/50" Kaijo now cornered has no choice but to parry the attack. It works but costs more stamina than usual. He uses his spear and pierces him through the neck dealing massive damage "Critical hit! " reducing it´s hp to 25%. He backs off to take two swigs of his healing flask. The big guy attacks him with his knife again. Kaijo dodges and uses his spear poking multiple times and using a strong attack. He gets hit but the damage was enough to kill him off. "+2.00 souls""Hp: 35/50" He uses the healing spell to heal him "Hp:45/55". He rests up at the fire where the undead are lying on each other. He levels up his health to 60 and his level to 19.
