He was able to let his sister go and wake those people, because he remembered that he had teleported away from the twelfth Royal Guard squad new members, but there was Nero, just a few meters away from him, and what's more his sister didn't seem as if she cared about that at all, giving him quite the shock.
Robin's shout woke up the other people in the building; even old Frank woke up with a confused look on his face.
"Don't worry we are together right now, and I won't back stab my people." Nero said with a disinterested expression, before looking at the outside from a broken window next to him and cursing:
"What's f***ing wrong with this new world, after sleeping for all this time, the sun is still as bright as ever."
"I'm happy to see that you are finally awake Robin, my name is Dan." as Robin was lost over what Nero said, he heard a voice coming from his side, turning his head he saw a young man standing there with a gentel smile on his face.
"Hi my name is Robin." even though he didn't understand what was happening, he was able to see that no one in that room wanted to do him or his sister any harm, not even that glasses wearing Bastard who almost took his life before.
"Great now that we all woke up, let's see how to deal with that base, after all we don't have a lot of time." after eating some food from Randy's emergency kit, Dan clapped his hands and said.
"Anie, you tell your brother what happened, while we will talk to old Frank and try asking him about the base and some other information."
Anie nodded her head and turned to her brother telling him about all what he missed, and what they had been through till then, while Dan Randy and Nero, turned their attention toward old Frank and asked:
"Old Frank how are you feeling."
"I'm good, but Dan who would have thought that we would meet so soon?" old Frank answered with a smile.
He didn't know what happened to Patrick and the cowardly looking man, but seeing no trace of them he kind of had an idea about their fate.
"What happened why did you come after us just after parting ways.l?" Dan asked, he had a good impression of old Frank and he kind of wanted to make him one of them.
"It's just as Patrick said... Patrick was the big man, we were sent after you to get the two girls."
"I guess the cowardly looking man was the one who sold us out, right?" Nero asked with a snort.
"That's true." old Frank didn't try to hide it.
"Anyway leave that aside for no, first we need you to tell us somethings." Dan returned the conversation to the right track, they didn't have a lot of time after all.
"Go ahead."

"First, the one you called Patrick, in term of power is there anyone close to or stronger them him." Patrick gave Dan a strong impression, the power that he showed wasn't normal, it was beyond the limits of what a human body could show, and also, Nero said that he had the smell of a dragon on him, which made Dan quite curious.
Dan wasn't the only one who was curious about that, Nero and Randy were too, so they listened with serious expressions, knowing if another person with the same power as Patrick is going to be their enemy beforehand was going to be of great help.
Old Frank found their question weird, as everyone knee that the strongest person in the city is the one eyed dragon, but he still answered their question honestly:
"There is only one person who is stronger than Patrick in our gang, he is our leader the one eyed dragon, people on the same level as him or a little weaker then him on the other hand are a lot, not really a lot, but they are more than any other gang in this city, there are three people on the same level as him, and two which are a little bit weaker."
Alarmed looks appeared on the faces of Dan and the other after hearing that, they didn't expect so many strong people to be hidden in the gang which they wanted to take control of.
"I think that that cowardly looking man saved our lives." after a while of silence Randy said with a bitter smile on his face.
"What should we do, should we change our target, I'm sure that old Frank knows the whereabouts of another gang." Nero asked, he really didn't want to fight against such strong opponents with just the seven of them.
Dan didn't say anything about changing targets he just lowered his head thought for a while and asked old Frank:
"Do you know if there are any ships strong and big enough to cross the ocean in this city?"
At that point that was the most important thing to know, as if there was no need for it, they wouldn't start a fight that they can't easily win.
Dan's question come as a surprise to old Frank, it wasn't because there didn't exist a ship in the city but because:
"You people are asking some weird questions, it can't be that you are really from outside this city."
"What do you mean"? Dan asked with interest.
"You first asked me about the great migration, even though it is supposed to be something everyone knows about, then you asked about the strength of our gang, even though it is the strongest in the city, when you asked me I thought that you just wanted to make sure of the information which you already have, but from your expressions I was able to see that you didn't know anything about it.
"And just now you asked me about a ship, while everyone knows that in this city the only working ships are under the control of our gang, the one eyed dragon gang and that's something that all the gangs knows about as even though the ships are under our control the people capable of running th are under the control of some other gangs."

"There's a ships under your gangs control?" Dan said in surprise.
He just wanted to try his luck when he asked old Frank about a shipsl, he didn't really dare hope that there was one let alone more, after all how many years had passed since the first time dragons appeared in the world and with no one to take care of them all the ships would have been destroyed ages ago.
"Yes of course there are, there are three ships."
"What are they used for?"
"Each year during the great migration all the gangs will work together and enter the sea to fish, you should know that ever since the dragons appeared the amount of fish in the ocean had become astonishing because of the disappearance of fishing boats.
"So in that window of two weeks when dragons are away we leave to the sea for fishing, after they return they will split the fish among themselves and return to hiding once again, you can say that the fish they catch in that period is the reason of our survival."
"And all those three ships are under the control of your gang?" Randy asked.
"Yes."
Nero Dan and Randy looked at each other in silence for a while before Dan broke it by saying:
"So we have no other choice then."
The other didn't say anything but the bitter looks on their faces said it all.
Old Frank looked at them with puzzlement, he didn't understand what they we
re talking about so he just kept silent.
While they were talking they kept on hearing Robin's voice interrupting his sister's from time to time:
"What we aren't in our world... Dragons are you serious... 25 worlds what the..." His sister had to calm him so many times before she finally ended her explanation.
"Old Frank, can you tell me how did Patrick and the others get such a powers" Dan asked old Frank who was trying his best to understand what was happening from what he already knew and from the things that Robin shouted from time to time.
"You really don't even know that?" this time old Frank was really surprised, as them not knowing everything else only meant that they came from a faraway place, but not even knowing about blood baths was almost impossible. As it is something talked about in the radio signals that are broadcasted through the whole world each passing day, being humanity's only hope and all.
"Well we did come from a faraway place after all, now can you tell me how did they became that strong."
"It's because of blood baths, putting a few drops of dragon blood in a basin and staying in it for a period of time can make the human's body strength increase, people who go through a blood bath are known as blood power users."
Showing surprised expressions, Dan and the others looked at each other, before Dan thought about something and asking:
"Then how did they get the blood of a dragon, I don't expect them to have hunted it?"
"Of course not who can hunt a dragon, they only got a few drops after a fight happened between two dragons." old Frank said.
"Dragons fight togethe?" Randy asked.
"Yes they do, even though it rarely happens on other times of the year, before the Great Migration male dragons would always fight for the right to mate, fortunately they hate fighting next to cities so they usually fight in forests or other places like that." It was Dan who answered Randy's question.
"Let use put that aside for now, what we need to know is the power of our enemy." Nero said with a serious face before asking old Frank:
"Can you tell us how many people are guarding the entrance of your base, and what kind of weapons does your gang members use?"
"There are five people standing guard on the gate all the time, and one of them is a blood power user, he's a the weakest among all the blood power users in the gang."
"When it comes to weapons there are some bows and swords and clubs."
"Can people see what's happening in the place ehere the gate's guards are staying, and if some noise happened there, can it be heard by other people." Randy asked.
Old Frank started having a thought about what Dan and the others wanted to do but he didn't dare to believe it as he answered:
"It can't be seen but if a lot of noise happens, people can still hear it."
They stayed silent for a while after that before Dan said:
"I think that taking down all the guards without making any noise is close to impossible, especially with that blood power user with them, so we can only do it if we found a way to deal with the blood power user cleanly and easily making the normal guard afraid of us, actually the best course of action in the whole operation will be if we can kill all the blood power users, I'm sure that by doing that the normal people won't stand in our way."
The other two had similar thought to Dan, taking control of what old Frank called the strongest gang in the city wasn't going to be easy, especially with just the seven of them, so after hearing what old Frank said about the blood power users and the gangs circumstances they all thought about the same thing;
To finish the blood power users cleanly before taking control of the gang in one full swap.
