Chapter 642 - Time To Strike!

Time went by swiftly.

And while Landon busily ran around Baymard, William and his crew were just 7 hours away from entering the Capital City.

But before they got entered, of course they had to visit his base nearby first.

It was already nightfall, and several creatures had come out to play.

Vrrrrrmmmmmmm!

They drove into the forest region and stopped in front of several ma.s.sive bushes.

To be more accurate, there were several trees around that had leaves that were so long that they touched the floor.

So it all looked like the trees had long hair instead.

William got out of the vehicle and calmly walked towards the bushes with his hands firmly clasped behind his back.

"Risen Groups, North, East, West and south.

Come out!

Masters orders!"

'Thap! Thap! Thap! Thap! Thap!

The moment William bellowed out, several men in all black hastily jumped onto the ground from above.

"Young Master, welcome back." They knelt and said in unison.

Of course the men in black had already been aware of the incoming visitors since they all received several reports about these incoming Baymardian vehicles already.

And since their young master had previously gone towards Baymard a while back, then didn't that mean that he had returned?

Moreover, he had told them to come here and wait for his return.

So many of them already had a hunch that their young master and his family were back.

Their master left their main base during the early weeks of March, and now, he had returned in Mid-May.

So did this mean that they would finally put their final plan in motion?

.

One should know that their main base was just a month and a half's travel from the base that they were presently residing.

So it didn't take too long for them to get here.

Of course when their young master had left the main base, he had also travelled to his other bases close to the Capital with the help of the Baymardian vehicles.

All in all, he had only chosen to visit camps that were just a month or at most 2 months away from the capital on horseback.

He alerted them all and told them to head to this base which was just 7 hours away on horseback.

Hence the place was now somewhat overcrowded.

And for these men, such a ma.s.sive gathering could only mean one thing; their young master was finally ready to strike!

"Welcome young master!

We, your humble servants have been waiting for your arrival."

"Good!"

With that, some of the men went back into their hiding place, while others brushed the bushes away, revealing a ma.s.sive cave.

"Young Master!

Please wait for a moment.

I'll send word for all traps to be removed."

"Hmhm... You go do your thing." William said before calmly walking back into one of the vehicles again.

It could take some time, so he decided to change his attire first.

He was currently wearing a loose robe that looked like a bedroom robe.

Well, since he stayed in his bed during most of the trip, he just felt that wearing thick clothes to bed was ridiculous.

So he hadn't even bothered changing.

But now that he had arrived, of course while waiting for his men to remove all traps, he and his family calmly changed their attire.

.

"Young Master, all traps have been properly dismantled."

"Good!"

With that, they drove in steadily and finally exited the cave.

William, who was now eating beside the driver, happily looked at the heavily packed camp.

'It looks like everyone made it,' He thought.

They drove up a small hill and made their way into a grand estate there.

"Young master, welcome back!"

"King-Father, welcome back!"

"Queen-Mother, Welcome back!"

Everyone had gotten word that William and his family were back, so they hurriedly a.s.sembled themselves before the main mansion within the estate in attempts to welcome them.

They were all very excited and eager to see William and his family.

Especially his aides and those who had survived Connor and Eli's previous attack.

Seeing them return in high spirits also meant that the Baymardians had somehow taken care of Alec.

But now, everyone had one question in mind; was he dead or alive.

William looked at the large a.s.sembly and slowly walked up the stairs of the main mansion.

"Thank you all for your warm welcome.

You all have been my hand throughout these years.

We have fought many battles together, and have also lost many of our brothers too.

Their deaths will forever be remembered by us till the day we die.

But no matter what, we can't let their deaths go in vain.

That's why we will put a stop to this long tiring battle once and for all by going taking over the Capital.

Brothers, this will be our salvation battle!

And what do we fight for?

We fight for peace, fairness, happiness and freedom for ourselves and our families.

We have lived in the shadows for decades.

And now, it's time for us to make our place known in Arcadina!!!"

"Yeah!!!!!!" The men yelled out emotionally.

"Thank the ancestors!

Now we can visit our families as much as we want."

"I'm so happy!.... I... I...I..."

"Hahhahahhahahhaha!

Bro, are you crying?"

"You!... Who says that I'm crying?

I just have dirt in my eyes, that's all."

"Alright, alright, you aren't crying.

No need to fight me about it okay?

Hey everyone, Malone is crying!

Hey everyone.....eh?

Why are you all crying as well?"

"You won't understand."

"Why?"

"Because you're single."

(-_-)

Many of the men within the audience broke down in tears as they listened to William's words.

Only they knew how much they and their families have suffered throughout these years.

Their wives and children had to pretend to have no relations with them when they were out of their bases.

It was a struggle to act like a total stranger to one's family.

But that was for the best since they didn't want anyone to target or suspect their families.

And as they listened on, they knew that the time had finally come for them to stand out.

Their hearts raced wildly and their minds became determined.

Yes!

It was finally time to end this long going battle.
