《I'm the King Of Technology 》Chapter 407. The Escape
Advertisement
Jasmine was left speechless by this mischievous brat before her.
Sigh... forget it!
It was best for her to focus on saving her children first..... before worrying about any other thing.
And besides, she was truly curious to see whether Micheal was up there now or not.
Her eldest child needed medical attention now..... and she knew that there was no way that Kamara would help out with this matter.
Before Jasmine knew it, the men quickly took out black sticks and pointed at the chains on the floor.
"Queen Jasmine..... Please hold still!'
'Bang!'
The sounds of 2 bullets hitting the chains.... quickly gave off a loud 'bang' noise.
2 soldiers had just shot the chains on each side of her legs all at once.
Jasmine speedily crouched down in fright.... and by the time she looked at her legs, she was filled with even more shock.
She was free!
Her legs were now unbounded!
But how did they do it?
The sound of the bullets had immediately woken up her son.... who struggled to open his tired eyes.
As for her sick daughter, of course, the fever had made it hard for the poor girl to even wake up.
"Little Raul..... your up!"
We don't have much time any longer... so listen to mother okay?"
Raul just nodded and did as he was told, and every quickly.... his sister, his mother and himself were all wearing guard uniforms.
In the case of his sister, since she was just 7 years old.... they had just placed a guard shirts on her which ended up looking like a king nightgown instead.
"Warrant officer Miranda!.... you will carry the princess.
Warrant officer Shane!... you'll carry the young prince.
And Captain Maleek... you'll carry queen Jasmine!"
"Yes sir!"

Hearing the orders, Jasmine and Raul wanted to refuse.... but before they could even protest, they found themselves lifted by the rest and placed on the backs of these men in a flash.
With that, everyone hastily made their way out of the dungeon and immediately reunited with the rest above.
When Jasmine saw Micheal, who was currently being piggy-backed on one of the soldiers.... she couldn't help but tear up a little.
Did Kamara hate Micheal so much that she had to starve the man this much?
She knew that Kamara had poisoned Micheal, because almost everyday.... Kamara would come over and gloat about the fact that she had finally won, as well as the fact that the kingdom was finally hers too.
But really..... wasn't Kamara being too much for making her mighty giant now look like a twig?
Nonetheless, she still loved him very much.... even at this moment that his face was pale and somewhat bluish in colour, she still had hope that he would make it through all this.
Raul looked at his father in shock with only one thought in mind.
Women were indeed scary beings!
With the whole gang together, they immediately planned to make their grand escape.
Buy just when they had just left the study... in the massive parlour space within the Wing, they soon came face to face with the devil herself.
"Who the hell are you all?!!!"
Everyone looked towards the exit tunnel at the other end of the room.... and immediately spotted a beautiful woman walking in with 40 guards angrily.
She was furious!
After making sure that her son was safe, she immediately decided to check in on Micheal, and give him his normal dose of poison.
But when she got there, there were piles of dead bodies lying around.... and stepping in, she quickly realized that Micheal was missing.

At this point, she was utterly confused.
In her mind.... these attacks outside were sent down from the heavens, so she had already removed any thoughts of this being an enemy attack instead.
So the only other option, was that Micheal had taken advantage of these attacks to escape.
Immediately, she sent most of her men to search the entire mansion... as well as go out in the battlefield and look for him, while she stayed with just a few by her side.
Right now, she was coming to gloat with Jasmine over the fact that her precise husband had deserted her to die here.
But who would've known that she would come and meet Micheal, as well as Jasmine trying to escape instead?
Tsk!
Micheal's men must have been watching them for a while now... and have probably decided to take advantage of these heavenly attacks to rescue him.
Yes!... that was the only explanation for this.
As in her mind, it was utterly impossible for any human being to plan those attacks outside.
Micheal looked at Kamara I'm rage, as he truly wanted to strangle her to death with his bare hands.
While he was under her custody, she had blatantly admitted to being in life with his own blood brother.
And to make matters worse, Lecter wasn't his son at all.
This fact alone was too much for any man to bear.
"You all are fools up come her.
Do you really think that you'll be able to make it out with all those attacks going on?
Don't be foolish!
Better turn around now and give up!" Kamara said arrogantly.
Immediately, Landon and the rest didn't wait for her to finish talking.... as they immediately dashed towards them at full speed.
As Landon had said at the start of this mission they weren't here to fight everyone.
They were here to rescue and ran away as fast as they could.
So right now, they had to escape from this mansion rather than spend hours fighting.
They only had 48 minutes left, before those in the hot air balloons run out of ammunition.
So they had to get going fast.
Seeing Landon and men rush towards them some of the guards pushed Kamara to the side while shielding her.... and the rest immediately
Took out their swords instead.
'Sling!'
'Peeu! Peeu! Peeu! Peeu!'
How could swords compare to guns?
As the soldiers ran they shit those who were blocking their path, and quickly left Kamara and the rest behind in just 2 minutes.
Kamara looked at the scenes before her in rage.
Why did her men have to pretend as if a sword had just been launched at them?
The enemy didn't even do anything, yet her men had just fallen to the ground just like that?
If they wanted to pretend, couldn't they do a better job to at least look somewhat convincing?
Of course, how could she have known that what her men were feeling was actually several times worse instead?
"Get up you lazy arses!
Chase after them now!
Quickly! Quickly! Quickly!'

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!

Twilight over Arcania
SynopsisA child dies in an alley, but it's not the end.A mysterious entity known as Voice saves the child.The child is reborn in a world named Arcania. A world where magic exists.With a second chance at life, what will the child do in this strange new world?Rebirth Arc (17 chapters - Complete)Liara is reborn in the world of Arcania as a baby. She must grow, and learn of this strange new world.Twilight Arc (Ongoing)Liara makes a place of herself in the world and learns of Arcania and what will happen if she does not intervene.Author's NoteWhat you can expect from this storyThis novel is my take on the resurrection theme. I wanted to write a resurrection story with every element I liked about the theme, but without the elements I disliked. This is the story of Liara. MC's second go at life in a world where magic is real.Arcania is not a nice place. It is my answer to the question "How would civilizations develop if powerful magic was real and widespread enough." I try hard to make a large consistent story in a large consistent world. There will be lots of characters and organizations built to various levels of depth. The story starts small and grows in size and scope.I try to avoid plot armor as much as I can. You can expect at least MC to make it alive quite far in the story. It's the MC's story after all.I spent time building the world before beginning with the writing itself. How continents are shaped, the evolutionary history of the species, the history of the world, the structure of the solar system, the rules of magic, etc... I have planned the whole overarching plot. I have a clear ending in mind.There will be lots of battles and action. From large scale magic battles between immensely powerful beings to small skirmishes. Expect fights to be bloody. In Arcania, magic is just another set of law of physics. It's a natural phenomenon with clear rules to it. Gods exists, they are absolute being that see humanity like a human would see an ant. They are not just really powerful individuals. They act rarely, and indirectly.What this story will not beThere will be no harem element and little to no romance or sex in this story.There will be some comedy and comic relief, but Arcania in general is not a nice place.Fights will be bloody, but I won't write gory descriptions.

Note: This is my first work of fiction, and as such, there will almost certainly be issues with pacing, grammar, the writing as a whole, and the story as a whole.

Thank you for reading!
