Chapter 487: Kidnapping 3

Boom!

In a split second, the attacks sent by the three soldiers of the Black Plain Army hit the defenses of that level 47 royal guard.

At the time, this man had finished activating his defense technique, which could create an extra layer of skin that was super resistant to attacks of the same level as his.

But even considering that those three soldiers still had a slightly inferior fighting proficiency than this man, they had managed to put this old man in a dead-end.

After all, because they attacked him together, that person could not have avoided such an attack. Moreover, their combined charges had more destructive power than this cultivator's defenses could sustain!

"Ahhhh!"

And it didn't even take a second for this man to start screaming in pain, feeling different sensations around many non-vital parts of his body.

First, he could feel a burning part of his back, where pieces of this man's clothing were burning, along with his skin, which was already beginning to blister.

Second, he felt several cuts spread from his left leg to his shoulder. Such wounds weren't deep, but they were enough that this side of this man's body was soaked in blood.

At the same time, he felt a strong sensitivity in each of the cuts.

Finally, his right arm was also burned, but not by the flame that had hit his back, but by the ice thrown by one of those soldiers' technique!

historical

"Miserables!" He snarled in a fury, feeling much of his blood rush to his head and his face turn red. "I will kill you all!"

Unfortunately for him, when he was making his empty threats, his subordinate, a level 46 cultivator, could no longer sustain the cultivation pressures that were trying to crush both him and his boss!

"Ahhh!" Alvin let out a sad cry just before his face turned deathly pale and passed out as he vomited a mouthful of blood.

He had thought he could hold his opponents while his boss finished those three. After that, it would undoubtedly be effortless for Alvin and the person in charge of this fort to finish off these enemies and go in search of the truth.

But the reality could be ruthless...

Alvin's boss hadn't had any results in time, and soon this person could no longer sustain the cultivation pressure of the various soldiers who had ambushed them.

"Shit..."

Seeing this happen to his subordinate, that level 47 man cursed without thinking, already feeling considerable pressure coming towards his head.

But it was too late for him!

Previously he was being protected because his subordinate was counterattacking that. But having lost that support, this man, who was already preparing to launch a decisive attack on those three soldiers, barely had time to react after seeing such a result.

All he had done was cursing these people as his eyes lost their light, and he passed out in that corridor, completely exhausted!

Anyway, seeing the result of this brief fight, those soldiers looked at each other and sighed for a moment.

"One less..." One of them muttered as he placed his hands on his knees and tried to exhale.

After a brief moment of relief, the strongest of the group looked at the soldier who was already putting necklaces around the necks of those two royal guards and said. "You seem to be the most exhausted of us, Cedric. So, since there aren't many enemies left, I want you to take these two to the outer court..."

That soldier gave the orders on how things should be done until Cedric left that place with two unconscious bodies on his back. The rest of the group then returned to their primary objective.

Finish conquering this fort!

...

A few minutes had passed since the start of this invasion when the operation finally ended.

The soldiers from the Dry City had completed this part of the mission, having conquered this fort!

From start to finish, there were a few small 'failures' here and there, like the little fight that had taken place between Alvin and his boss against Minos' soldiers. However, all these events had taken place in the depths of this place and had not lasted long, nor had they generated any great commotion.

The enemy were outnumbered, minos' soldiers had the numbers advantage. And even though the enemies were inside their own base, the arrogance of thinking this place would never be invaded had been a terrible thing for them!

As a result, the conquest of this fort had significantly been facilitated for Minos' subordinates.

Finally, after the entire invasion, the soldiers had quickly gathered in one of the most extensive courtyards there. In this part, some of the prominent figures among the guards of this fort were lying on the ground, passed out, and surrounded by many enemies.

"How's our count?" Humbert asked out loud.

"Sergeant Humbert, we had no casualties, and only 7 of us need a longer rest. As for the enemies, none of them died. They didn't even manage to escape us!"

"The count coincided with the information given by the headquarters.." Another soldier commented as he began to explain to the mission leader the numbers involved in this matter.

After a while, seeing that nothing seemed out of control, Humbert gave his orders about what should be done next. "Very well!"

"Everyone here was amazing in this invasion, but we can't rest. That is just the beginning!"

"Now, we will start the most difficult part of our mission, which consists of three simultaneous operations." He then stopped for a moment and looked towards Dumas, level 45.

"First, Dumas, I want you and your team to escort this group of about 80 royal guards back to the Dry City."

"All right!"

"Second, Pat, you will take these remaining royal guards to the location of Mrs. Abby's team. After that, you will protect that place until Mrs. Abby returns to the Dry City."

"OK."

"Third, the rest of you will stay here with me.." Humbert continued to speak, making clear to those people what could and could not happen at this time.

Everything they would do from now on involved more risk than the attack they had just carried out. After all, escorting people from one location to another always involved the risk of someone seeing what they shouldn't, as well as the many unpredictable possibilities!

They knew exactly how strong the people inside that fort were and how they should act. But outside this place, the number of possibilities was simply too great for them to prepare themselves.

And finally, the most challenging point of this mission was to keep this fort under the control of the Black Plain Army, without the local forces suspecting anything.

That is, to just infiltrate this place, they had to act as if they were, in fact, royal guards, while other soldiers were prepared for that.

Abby would initiate interrogations with the most relevant people in this fort so that Humbert's group could start operating this place without making big mistakes. But only after Minos' girlfriend intervened with all those guards that this young man's soldiers could handle this place most efficiently.

After that, the assaults on the rest of the royal family's bases in this city could finally begin!
