Chapter 241: Grim Situation |
The Orc after taking over the Northern Pass settled down there while preparing for the upcoming fights.
On the other hand, reinforcement slowly started to appear on the Orc side.
Meanwhile, the Orc started to send their scouts didn’t stop and the Orc’s group started to spread out.
Lesh forces along with Lucas rested and recovered for some time but they didn’t sit still and as soon as they recovered, they started to work again to rescue the citizens.
They formed a small group and moved around informing the villagers to evacuate to the nearby cities.
Occasionally, if they would meet with Orcs they would blend into normal humans and retreat trying to avoid a battle as much as they could.
With Orc’s superior numbers, they don’t have a chance against them.N0v3lRealm was the platform where this chapter was initially revealed on N0v3l.Bjn.
Their topmost priority was to save as many lives as possible. About the matter of territory, it would be solved as soon as imperial forces arrived.
But contrary to their expectations, the Imperial forces didn’t arrive on the third day.
Meanwhile, Lucas fell into deep thought.
There is no way Imperial forces would neglect this matter cause the situation is already quite bad unless they were in big trouble.
Lucas tried to run his mind and even looked at his diary where he had written all the major events he could remember but he found nothing.
After thinking for a while, the only thing he could think of was something happening in the background.
Although the Orc invasion was a threat, if seen from a broad perspective,it wasn’t big enough to influence the whole plot because random skirmishes like this happen all around as they were generally subdued by others.
Even at times like this demons and humans would be fighting in the background secretly without no one knowing about it.
It was as if you read a newspaper about certain events in the morning and spoke some words and moved on.
But only the people involved in the particular incidents knew the horror of what was going on and Lucas was in a similar situation.
“But why me?”
“With my strength shouldn’t I stay here? I am the second strongest here. I can already beat Sir Xanth.”
Xanth who heard this was suddenly flustered.
He and Lucas had a match just for fun but who knew he would be thrashed by this boy as if he was just a nobody?
The boy literally toyed with him during the match.
“Cough…Cough..”
“Lucas, you have the skill to fly. So, it would be quicker for you to do this.”
“After delivering the information, stay there and help them. The forces of the City Lord may need your help.”
Although Lesh was correct logically, Lucas knew his real motive for sending him there.
Lesh wanted him to stay away from the battlefield as much as possible and now the situation had become more dangerous as more 5-Star warriors from the Orc side were moving.
“Now, on to the next thing.”
“We are going to move the bases. This place will not be safe anymore. Who knows, the Orc might already be on us when we are talking.”
“So, we will shift to the base.”
“I and Xanth will go on evacuation. Chris, you will be in charge of moving the base.”
“And Lucas also tried to contact the other side,” Lesh muttered.
Lucas nodded.
The army chief has a special black phone for contact similar to a walky-talk which he handed over to Lucas and gave him the code.
After getting the set of instructions Lucas summoned the armor and rose to the sky.
Taking a last look he finally departed.
