Freeing the Slaves

When Thor got to the top he peeked over the wall and looked for any guards only to find a single one sitting down against the fort sleeping. Thor quietly pulled himself up and sneaked to the side of the man before putting his hand against the man's mouth, waking him in a panic.

"If you keep struggling i will kill you" That seemed to do the trick as the man froze at those words. "Now I want you to do something for me. If you do that I won't kill you, got it?" The Noxian soldier quickly nodded his head. Thor used his sword that was against the man's throat and pointed it at his groin "If you make any unnecessary noise when I remove my hand I'll cut off your dick then cauterize the wound uncaring of the screams you make at that point"

Thor could see the fear in the soldiers eyes as any man would agree that it was better to die than that. Thor slowly removed his hand but while doing so he made sure to push his sword closer to the man's groin as a reminder. "What would you like me to do?" the soldier spoke in an incredibly fearful voice as he kept glancing at the sword pointed at his most precious place. "Tell me where all the slaves are and who is in charge of this base?" Thor said while glancing around to make sure someone isn't coming near.

"The slave quarters are underground in the mine. They are separated as such that Half of the slaves work while the other half rest then switch so half the slaves should be in their quarters while the other half should be working in the mines. As for our commander we don't have one because he died not long ago but I heard that the emperor is sending the newly appointed 'Hand of Noxus' Darius to take control of this Fort and lead our armies in taking over the Freljord."

Thor nodded hearing the man as the timeline added up with what he remembered as Darius should be around his early to mid thirties right now and that's around when he was named the Hand of Noxus and sent to take over the Freljord.

"One last question: how do I get to the slave quarters?" While saying this he made sure to push the sword even more to the point that the freezing cold of the sword is touching his clothing and slowly freezing over his clothes and definitely making his package shrink from the cold.

"Y-you just have to go through that door over there while following the staircase that leads all the way to the mines. There are quite a few ways to enter the mines from all over the Fort." The soldier replied while pointing at a door not too far away.

"Well thanks for your kind and willing contribution now, time to go to sleep" As Thor said this he used the pommel of his sword and hit him right in the temple which sent the guard to sleep for at least 4-5 hours.

After Thor was done with the guard and adjusted him so he looked like he was just sleeping. Thor slowly moved to the door that the guard said and peaked inside and indeed there was a staircase as well as two guards who were also sleeping and from what Thor could gather with his nose they drank as well.

'It seems that not having a commander has made everyone lazy and not care about their watch duties, I wonder if they are doing this cause their acting commander doesn't care or if he just isn't respected' Thor thought as he snuck past the guards and slowly went down the stairway making sure to be careful incase a stray guard came.

After making it to the bottom he found a sprawling mining shaft with multiple guards that unlike their counterparts up top they can not be negligent because they have to keep the slaves in check. Thor carefully looked around and from what he could see there were 20 guards about 10 of them near the slaves with whips and the other 10 standing at exits and entrances.

There were two right in front of him but looking the opposite way of him so he was not discovered. The other 8 were to the left, right, front and center. The ones to the left, right , and front must be guarding entrances that came from other parts of the fort while the center two were guarding the slaves quarters which just looked to be rooms carved out of the rock with some hay as bedding.

As for the other guards they were walking to and from in various tunnels that led to where the slaves seem to be mining. Thor seeing this felt stuck as each guard had a line of sight on each other to the point that if he opened the door he was peeking through even more they would be able to see him so if he were to attack the two guards next to him they would see.

'Why can't this be like Assassin's Creed where I just kill them right next to each other but because i'm in a bush the guards don't notice the sudden and odd disappearance of one of their comrades' While inwardly lamenting that there wasn't Assassins Creed logic in this world Thor finally gave up trying to be stealthy.

'Fuck it I planned on destroying the base anyways' As he thought that he quickly opened the door he was behind and stabbed the two guards that were in front of it in the back. After that he quickly fired off multiple Icicles that shot through the other 6 guards that were guarding the entrances.

After that the guards in the center quickly made noise that alerted the guards in the tunnels so they came swarming out. Thor pulled his two swords from the bodies they were in which even in the few seconds that they were impaled were already frosted over, after pulling his swords out he got into a stance to ready himself. He didn't use his fire to take out the guards as he was in an enclosed space and he didn't want to destroy their armor as he would have the slaves put them on to protect themselves.

Seeing Thor put himself in seemingly a defensive stance the 12 remaining guards charged at him only for Thor to smirk 'Idiots' While they were charging suddenly from Thor came a wave of ice that froze the ground they were running on so they all slipped and fell over each other. While they were trying to get up Thor just walked over and stabbed them in vulnerable areas like their throat.

"That was anticlimactic" Thor Thought out loud as he looked over towards the tunnels to see some slaves looking out from them and watching the slaughter. "You can come out now the guards are dead" hearing that although they were hesitant they all slowly came into view. There seemed to be 50 and most looked malnourished, seemingly being slaves that were here for a while with chains around their feet and the chains on their arms only long enough for them to hold onto a pick axe and swing.

Thor also walked towards the slave quarters which held another 50 slaves in a similar state but what confused Thor was that there was no one that looked new like they just got here. After gathering the Slaves and freeing them of their chains by freezing the chain then shattering it Thor finally got to the question that confused him

"Where are the other slaves, shouldn't there be far more than this?" hearing him, many of the slaves glanced at each other before an older well built man walked forward and even though he was malnourished you could see that he used to be fairly strong and since he had Freljordian looks that meant he used to fight.

"This is only one of the many holding areas there are more all over the underground'' The man's voice was fairly strong and deep though was raspy and scratchy from presumably little water. Thor nodded at that as he was surprised when he saw this as this mine should have far more slaves.

"Do you know where they are held and how many of you there are?" Thor questioned the man as he was hoping he wouldn't have to wander through these tunnels hoping to find the right ones.

"Ay I know where we are all held as for how many of us there are… around 500 spread throughout multiple holding areas"

Thor hearing that nodded at that seemed more believable. "Alright I want all of you that know how to fight to put on the armor and pick up the weapons of the guards that I killed while I go and free everyone else" After waiting for the man that he found out was named Erik to put on his Armor they ventured off into the many tunnels.

It took them a couple hours but by the end of it Thor killed around 200 guards and freed 500 slaves and after getting them all geared gathered them all in one of the larger rooms. 200 of the 500 slaves were fitted with the Noxian armor they took off the dead bodies while the other 300 grabbed any tools they could to fight like pickaxes.

And now it was time to escape
