CHAPTER 18: OVERCONFIDENCE

Tang...Tang... Tang...

The bell rang 3 times, which is a sign that the city is experiencing an emergency. All the residents of the city gathered in the square, they did not know what kind of emergency the city was facing.

The soldiers helped the elderly townspeople. They informed the mayor of the state of emergency in the city of Carani.

The mayor went up to the place he had prepared and said. "The city is currently entering a state of emergency. From the reports we received, thousands of foreign soldiers were near our city. They plan to attack this city in the near future. We have provided a safe refuge for the entire population of the city. The soldiers will escort you there safely."

The Carani townspeople looked calm, they showed no expression of panic or fear. The residents of the city seem to be used to facing emergencies.

Nusa and Atma return to the village of Cipoho, while Tara sits on the roof of the city gate. The city of Carani has only one entrance gate and one secret passageway to deal with emergencies.

Tara left the city gate wide open, Atita informed that the foreign soldiers living outside the city would attack in about 2 days. As usual, they would attack at night so that no eyewitnesses could see.

Residents flocked to leave the city via a secret passage, the secret passage was underground and connected to a place in the southeast of the city. The place was spacious and safe to live in during the war.

To get there, the residents took 19 hours. The place is hidden, the situation there is quite comfortable with stage houses that are deliberately made there.

...*********...

"The soldiers we sent to take the captives have disappeared, they are all lost along with the treasures we have accumulated over the years. Reportedly the captives managed to escape, they are now heading to the royal capital with strict escorts" said a man with a heavy voice.

The other man sitting opposite him said. "How could this happen! Did the soldiers betray us?!."

"It's impossible for the soldiers to betray us! they all have the same goals as us. It destroys this perverse kingdom." The other man looked angry, he got up from his chair.

5 People in one room, they are the higher-ups of the army who are sent specifically to destroy every city in the Kingdom of Bhayangkara.

"Everyone please calm down! it was possible that the soldiers had been wiped out by the enemy. We remain focused on the plan that the King has given us. We're close to a small town called Carani, with weapons and trained soldiers we're going to slaughter the whole town by tomorrow night" one man said confidently, from his appearance he was the leader of everyone in the room.

The man who was standing up earlier laughed satisfied and said. "What a city of Carani! They'll be gone soon. I hope they give a little resistance, even if it is in vain. Because they were facing head-to-head with the elite soldiers of the Firmament Kingdom."

...*********...

At midnight, 3 foreign soldiers enter the city gates secretly. The gate was wide open, they saw that the city gate was not guarded.

The 3 men reported the situation of Carani city to the commander of the troops. Silence felt throughout the city, no residents who move outside. The soldiers thought all the residents were asleep.

"Fire arrows shot at the houses!" commanding officer firmly.

The foreign soldiers had not yet entered the city, they were still on standby outside the gates. Dozens of arrows rained down on the houses of the people, the arrows set the houses on fire quickly.

Foreign soldiers began to enter the city, they ran towards the houses of the residents.

Darr...

The doors were forcibly smashed, the glass was stoned. All the houses were destroyed and then burned. Flames were seen everywhere, the dark city turned bright.

"d! Where did the whole population go!" a soldier angry.

All the soldiers gathered in the town square, they did not find a single resident and reported it to the commander.

The commander of the army looked confused and said slowly. "There's something strange about this city, lest this be...."

Aaaa!!!

The cries of the soldiers were heard everywhere, some of them could not save themselves. The position of the soldier is very beneficial to the enemy. They gathered in the war area simultaneously, of course they were vulnerable to sudden attacks. If the soldiers got a surprise attack then they would panic and break ranks.

In an instant, hundreds of soldiers were killed toasted. Not long after the townspeople attacked, they were dominated by D rank adventurers.

The soldiers did not provide any meaningful resistance, they were not prepared to receive a surprise attack. The cornered commander of the force was forced to fire a flare into the sky as a sign calling for help.

"Wine! the group of foreign soldiers began to approach," said a panicked adventurer.

The enemy forces are divided into 3 groups, namely the front guard, middle guard, and rear guard. They were already anticipating surprise attacks from the townspeople.

Seeing the number of foreign warriors coming, the adventurers started to panic. Most of them were the use of swords, but swords alone were not enough to defeat the enemy.

They needed the witches to give the area attacks. Unfortunately the witches had crossed their limits due to taking out too much fireball magic.

Tang...

Foreign soldiers fought each other with adventurers, the state of adventurers is less profitable. They had to fight against well-trained soldiers with full armament.

Some adventurers are falling, they are getting desperate and have run out of energy. Just as they were about to give up, suddenly appeared many circles filled the city.

The soldiers and adventurers were surprised to see the Jailangkung troops springing up from the circle. Jailangkung is an undead race, they have a human-like body. Their heads are made of coconut shells and their bodies are made of wood.

The Jailangkung troops attacked the foreign soldiers with a violent attack. Although they can be defeated by fire, but the number of Jailangkung too much makes it difficult for his enemy to cast spells.

A soldier said in panic. "Where did all these undead come from! it's impossible to win against them."

Shouts began to be heard inside the city, the vanguard and middle troops were defeated. And the rest of the rear guard troops.

...********...

"Retreat! back off you monsters!" the rear guard commander shouted in panic. He watched his troops slaughter one by one.

The two women stared intently at the commander of the army, their weapons both covered with the blood of the soldiers. The commander of the army was so scared, he did not expect the city to have any dangerous soldiers.

"Now what are we doing, sister?!" atma asked Tara coldly, she had worked with Tara to show their cruel side.

Tara smiled wickedly and said. "We cut him up and chopped his body." Tara raised her sword and prepared to split the commander's head.

Suddenly a shadow rushed up to Tara and swung a sword at her.

Tang...

Atma swiftly resisted the attack with his sword. The wind came out as the two swords clashed against each other, the shadowy figure carrying the commander of the army away. Tara and Atma were happy to meet that figure, it had been a long time since they had fought with a strong person.

"Let's go after him" asked Atma coldly.

"Okee, let's Go! "
