Chapter 1417 1417. The Raid

Jack followed Hasimu to the village hall he had searched earlier. Jack wondered what the orc was doing there when a siege was happening right outside his village.

The two soldiers following Hasimu stayed guard outside while Hasimu went into the village hall. Jack followed closely without touching those soldiers and entered before the entrance door closed.

Jack continued to follow Hasimu who went to the main hall and removed a carpet from the floor, revealing a trap door.

When Jack was going through this building earlier, he was in a hurry. He didn't realize that he had missed that trap door. He also didn't come close enough for his monocle to detect anything.

Hasimu opened the trap door and went in. Jack quickly followed.

They came into a very large underground chamber. The chamber was even larger than the village hall above it, but that wasn't the thing that surprised Jack. What surprised Jack was this underground chamber was filled with orcs. More than one hundred orcs were in the chamber.

Hasimu approached one of the orcs in the group, who stood up.

"Your people have been careless! What you are doing in Themisphere has been found out," Hasimu said to the orc.

"What do you mean?" The orc asked.

"The outworlder lord chief is currently sieging this village and demanding me to surrender your tribe! They might force their way in soon. You must leave through the secret exit!"

Jack used his Inspect on the orc who was speaking with Hasimu. The orc's name was Nadra. He was a level 72 rare elite orc.

There was no tribe surname on Nadra's name but Jack saw the familiar Raretooth tribal tattoo on his right arm. This orc was a member of the Raretooth tribe. He then looked around at the other orcs inside this chamber, they all had the same tribal tattoos somewhere on their bodies.

No wonder he couldn't find them anywhere in the village, they had been stashed down here. Additionally, from the conversation, it seemed the Angryfeet tribe was aware of what the Raretooth was doing. This placed them as willing accomplices to what had happened in Themisphere.

Jack sent the confirmation to Four Winds. Not long after, a big commotion was heard from upstairs. One of the soldiers who were guarding upstairs came down and shouted, "Chieftain Hasimu! They are breaching the gate!"

"d.a.m.n it! Hurry and leave!" Hasimu yelled at Nadra. He then ran back up with the soldier.

"Everyone, we have to leave! Go and open the secret exit!" Nadra commanded.

An orc went to a wall opposite the stairs going up to the village hall and pressed a secret switch. A part of the wall opened and revealed the secret exit.

When the first orc was about to step into an exit, he was suddenly slammed down to the ground by someone who just appeared out of thin air. This person was holding a runic rope which quickly bound the orc who was pinned on the ground.

It didn't take long for the orcs to recognize this person.

"The… Themisphere king…?!" Nadra exclaimed in surprise.

Jack had changed back to his real self before attacking. His regal outfit was easily recognized.

"No one is leaving this place," Jack said as he brought out more runic ropes. "You will pay for your crimes for disrupting the peace in Themisphere and for murdering its citizens. You can follow me back to face trial or I can dispense the punishment here. Your choice."

"Kill him!" Nadra commanded.I think you should take a look at

"So be it," Jack said and brandished his two swords.

Once Four Winds received the confirmation, he issued the order to charge. Violent Blizzard who was guarding the rear entrance to the village also received the command. She led her troops and charged forward.

The village gates were just wooden doors that had little HP. It couldn't be compared to city gates with strong rune diagrams empowering them. Within a short period, the gates had fallen and Four Winds' forces poured inside.????????.???

"Remember! No AOE. Do not touch commoners and unresisting civilians!" Four Winds bellowed.

As he entered, he shouted using mana manipulation. His voice reverberated throughout the small village.

"Villagers of Giggragh Village! Do not resist! We will not harm you if you don't attack us! Stay in your house and you will be left alone! We are under an official mission sanctioned by the grand chief to root out rebels. Do not attempt to confront us!"

The orc soldiers guarding the wall were h.e.l.l-bent on their loyalty to the Angryfeet tribe. They came down from the wall and engaged the force pouring into the village.

Jack had also sent a message to Four Winds warning him about the unusual number of soldiers inside the village, so he was not caught by surprise. He expected this resistance. He summoned his companion, Muwaje.

"To the village hall!" Four Winds ordered. He knew from Jack where the Raretooth tribe was hiding.

"Outworlder! How dare you attack? You will pay for this!" Hasimu came running with more soldiers.

"Pah! You and your tribe will pay for your treachery!" Four Winds spat.

Four Winds used enhanced berserk and t.i.tan Strength. Crimson tattoos covered his body while it increased in size. At the same time, he also activated Ancestral Possession. A demon ogre floated above his giant body with a menacing glare.

This turned Four Winds into a very intimidating presence. Hasimu and the soldiers he brought couldn't help but stop their charge upon the display, some even took a step back.

Four Winds grinned savagely as he used Punis.h.i.+ng Cyclone and charged into their midst.

Following the force were Hans and Jack's royal agents. The battle was raging fiercely around them.

Although Four Winds' force outnumbered the enemy, they had one disadvantage that the enemy didn't. The enemy didn't have reservations about using AOE skills. Hence, the battle was somewhat even out despite their numerical superiority.

There were some combatants in civilian clothes attacking them. Jack had given them runic ropes and told them to try their best not to kill the civilians even if they were hostile. So, they incapacitated these hostile civilians using the runic ropes instead.

With how chaotic things were going, they had difficulty staying in formation. Hans didn't make things easier. As soon as the battle started, he kept on charging to the first enemy orc he saw one after another. Duke Alfredo tried to keep him in line but the chaos made it hard to do so.

At one point, he could no longer see Hans anywhere.

"b.l.o.o.d.y h.e.l.l! Where has that lunatic run off to?!" he yelled. "Everyone, search for Hans at once!!"
