“Is it an utter three to one defeat?” Mag raised his eyebrow when he heard Camilla’s report. This result was indeed beyond his expectation.

  The Hairless Monk was actually so scary?

  However, this battle with an unexpected result did indeed gain them some very precious time.

  They had searched many places in the palace that could possibly hide a person, but they still couldn’t find Connie and Ferdinand. They also couldn’t find any clues about the black fog, either.

  About five minutes later, Camilla warned them that the 10th-tier powerhouses had already returned to the palace, and asked them to be careful.

  “Enemy attack!”


  “Enemy attack!!!”


  Right then, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the palace, and many orc guards rushed in immediately.

  “The prison was hijacked, and all the guards were killed”


  “The treasure vault was robbed! More than half of the treasures were taken!”


  Shocking news soon spread in the palace, and caused a lot of commotion.

  No one had expected anyone would attack the Falk Tribe on the night before the chief’s conferring ceremony. They even snuck into the palace to destroy and steal!

  “Bastard! They are disrespecting our Falk Tribe! Lock down the palace. I want to flush these fellows out!” Kurt led his soldiers out in a fury after he heard the report. He began to search the palace.

  “Attention, all units; attention, all units. Immediately retreat to the palace maids’ dormitory as planned. Eradicate all troubles along your way as fast as possible!” Mag grabbed Amy’s hand with a grave expression. He opened the door slightly, and he could see the orc guards scurrying around like headless chickens through a small gap.

  “Father, there are many people out there. How are we going to make our way out?” Amy asked Mag worriedly.

  “If there is no choice, we’ve got to fight our way out then,” Mag replied with furrowed brows. They had to return to the palace maids’ dormitory immediately. They wouldn’t be able to retreat if the dormitory was discovered.

  “I can hide our tracks with bubbles,” Gina softly said right then.

  “Hmm?” Mag and Amy looked at Gina simultaneously.

  Gina puffed her cheeks up slightly before blowing hard. A colorful bubble swiftly became bigger, and engulfed the three of them.

  “Will this do?” Mag poked at the bubble surrounding him doubtfully. It felt similar to a balloon.

  “It should.” Gina nodded.

  “Then, let’s set off. If there’s an emergency, you two have to follow me closely. We need to return with our fastest speed.” Mag didn’t hesitate. He opened the door while no one was out there, and led Amy and Gina out.

  Two orcs came toward them as soon as they left the room.

  Mag was already pressing on his cleaver. However, those two orcs only looked at that slowly closing door perplexedly. They went over to push it open to have a look, and then walked right past them. They didn’t even give them a second look.

  Mag couldn’t help being amazed. The little bubbles that Gina blew out actually had an invisibility effect.

  “Let’s quickly go.” Mag was glad for it as he swiftly led Amy and Gina toward the palace maids’ dormitory.

  Right then, an orc ran past Mag and the ladies as he loudly shouted, “Intruders were discovered in the cellar! Quickly assemble!”


  The orcs who were scurrying around in the hallway all ran in the same direction after they heard him.

  Mag frowned. A large number of orcs were beginning to assemble, and many of them 7th-tier and 8th-tier. They were a big threat to Elizabeth and the ladies.

  Of course, the more terrifying enemies were those two 10th-tier orcs who had already returned to the palace.

  “Am I allowed to kill?” Elizabeth’s cold voice came through the headset.

  “You do not have to be merciful to the enemies who want to kill you,” Mag replied in a low voice.

  Boom!

  A loud bang sounded somewhere in the western area, and the entire palace shook along with it. The orcs who were rushing forward halted obviously.

  Mag brought Amy and Gina through the crowd. He simply kicked those orcs who blocked his way. Because of their invisibility, they managed to return to the palace maids’ dormitory safely even though they had caused some commotion.

  Four orcs were already trying to break down the door and enter the dormitory.

  Mag quickly followed them into the dormitory. Before they could make a sound after discovering the teleportation portal, he already knocked them all out with a brick.

  “We’ve already arrived at the teleportation portal. How is your situation?” Mag asked after he dragged the four orcs into the dormitory and closed the door slowly.

  “W-we are blocked. There are so many people. The walkway is completely blocked……” Yabemiya’s nervous voice came through, and messy fighting sounds could be heard vaguely.

  Camilla’s voice followed after that. “The enemy’s 10th-tier powerhouse will arrive in 30 seconds!”


  Mag gave Gina an order. “Gina, you and Amy will stay here. Guard the door, and don’t let anyone through. I’ll go and bring them back.”


  “Father, I’ll go with you. I can protect you……” Amy looked at Mag worriedly.

  “Little Amy, this is our only way out of here. If the teleportation portal is damaged, none of us will be able to leave. Are you confident to guard it together with Big Sister Gina?” Mag said to Amy with a grave expression.

  “Mm-hmm. I will guard it together with Big Sister Gina.” Amy nodded her little head seriously.

  “Very good.” Mag patted Amy’s head with a smile before he asked Gina, “Gina, how long can this bubble last?”


  Gina blew another bubble for Mag before she answered, “It can last for three minutes.”


  “That’s enough.” Mag nodded. He tilted his ears to listen for sounds out there. He cracked open the door and dashed out of the dormitory. He followed the crowd to the location where Elizabeth and the ladies were trapped.

  “Do you need backup?” Irina’s voice sounded.

  “Not at this moment,” Mag replied on the private channel, and drew out his Tian Du sword slowly, but he put it back after thinking for a moment. He took out the “Fat Head Fish” instead.

  Sounds of fierce fighting could be heard, and all the guards and soldiers in the palace were running in the same direction. Mag moved along with the crowd as he rushed to the combat zone.

  The fighting in the long corridor was unusually fierce. Dozens of orc guards were already frozen into ice sculptures. There were also dozens of orcs who were banging up and down against the ceiling and floor uncontrollably.

  The other party only had three people in black, and they could roughly gauge that they were female based on their figures.

  However, their ruthlessness and powerful abilities had shocked them.

  They couldn’t do anything to them within a short period even when they had the absolute advantage in number.

  “Lord Kurt has arrived!”


  Right then, an agitated voice sounded, and all the orcs parted to welcome the arrival of Kurt.

  “Damned fellows. Does everyone think that our Falk Tribe is a soft target?!” Kurt stared at the three people in black in the corridor with a ruthless gaze, and dashed toward them with his sword.
