Chapter 415: Surprise Attack! Light Meteor (I) (2/2)
Nightfall. Taking advantage of the night, a group of people came out of a small restaurant. Every one of them was clad in long cloaks, and the one leading them was Long Haochen, clad in his Glorious Holy Armor.
They didn’t leave Major Jacques City through some secret passage, but just came out of the team section at nightfall.
Currently everyone was disguised as demons, with their eyes turned purple. Entirely in the shape of Moon Demons, the only special aspect on them was that everyone was surrounded by a very thick killing intent.
Deciding on a direction, Long Haochen said in a low voice, “According to the map drawn by the people from the team section, the seat of government should be in that direction. Let’s go.”
Currently, the whole Jacques Province was on high alert, so if the seven of them were to try leaving quietly, they would very possibly get found out, and inevitably chased by the enemies. Long Haochen’s plan was very simple. It consisted of launching a surprise attack on the seat of government located in Major Jacques City, to spread chaos in the city, and cause the demons lying outside to flock inside the city, permitting them to leave more smoothly.
This was undoubtedly a dangerous move, but with the existence of the Tower of Eternity, the amount of danger was negligible.
And furthermore, although two or even more Demon Hunter Remover squads were present in the city, they couldn’t immediately appear, and all they needed to do was to launch an attack before retreating, and not to get entangled in battles.
The group of seven rapidly advanced toward the official residence, but after only passing through one street, they ran into a patrol of Jacques Demons.
A group of twenty Jacques Demons barred their way, led by a raging Jacques Demon, “Who are you? Take off the hoods covering your heads!”
Long Haochen slowly lifted his head, two thick and icy glints shooting out from his eyes, “Moon Demons at work. You looking for death?” With a flip of his hand, he revealed his Moon Demon Viscount insignia.
Glared at by his purple demon eyes, the Jacques Demon immediately stumbled back several steps, hastily becoming respectful, “So you were seniors of the Moon Demon clan. My apologies.”
Giving a cold snort, Long Haochen showed the excessive arrogance of the Moon Demons. Not paying the least bit of attention to these Jacques Demons, he led his comrades and kept going forward.
The defenses inside Major Jacques City were indeed very tight. The distance from the team section to the official residence couldn’t be regarded as large, but on their way, they encountered five patrols. Nonetheless, relying on their disguise as Moon Demons, they didn’t run into any obstacles. Their viscount insignia and Long Haochen’s striking resemblance to a Moon Demon, due to his handsome appearance, proved to be of great value.
In the distance, the seat of government came to view. Compared to the official residences in cities of the Temple Alliance, this place could only be described with the words, simple and crude. It only had two floors, yet occupied quite a large area. The building looked old-fashioned, and many areas were damaged, with traces of poorly applied patched.
Long Haochen brought his comrades to a dark corner in an alley, and gave an eye signal to Lin Xin, meanwhile his body flashed with a golden glint of light. Yating appeared at his side without a sound. She had regained her strength along with Long Haochen, and was naturally recovered entirely.
Long Haochen nodded to Lin Xin, “Be prepared, and when Yating’s spell starts, activate yours as well.”
Lin Xin nodded, revealing a look full of excitement, containing even some cruelty. With a wave of his hand, a magic scroll appeared in his hand.
Yating lifted her staff, chanting melodiously. Standing in the center of Long Haochen’s group, she tried to dim the golden radiance emitted from her body as much as possible.
Yating’s incantation was melodious and effective, and the light essence spreading out from her grew more and more dense, as the massive aura of light gradually became impossible to conceal, spreading outward.
The seat of government gradually showed some movement. How could they not pay attention to this dense light essence? Hurried steps already started to sound out, and rapidly, a patrol appeared in Long Haochen’s line of sight.
“What are you all doing here?” A Jacques Demon rapidly rushed at Long Haochen’s group
With a cold glance, Long Haochen gave the order, “Leave no one alive.”
