Chapter 200 Soldiers On The Move 2

--The outskirts of Reginal City, Carona--

.

After 8 long hours of journeying through Carona, they had finally made it towards their destination.

On their way here.... they had decided to pass through the forest trails, rather than the roads.

It would be somewhat suspicious, if people see over 500 cloaked men walking into Carona.

Even worse, people might begin failing them due to curiosity.

One had to know that for one of these camps to be so close to Reginal city, meant that those people in power within the city were aware of everything that went on there.

Maybe they were threatened to keep their mouths shut, or they were bribed.... either way, walking on the roads would bring attention to ther potential enemies.

They might even suspect that it was the queen or the nobles that had sent them, and that wasn’t what Landon wanted.

That’s why they had passed through a forest trail that was commonly used by Merchants during this journey.

There were several merchant forest trails that led towards Reginal city from the Loplin’s coastal city..... but Landon chose the most difficult and dangerous trail of all.

In this way, they were guaranteed to not meet too many people on the way.

It was usually difficult because of the terrain, and dangerous because bandits hid there.

But all in all, Landon saw this as more practice for the men.

Funny enough, their entire journey was blissful... and no one had even attempted to attack them.

This was because they were too many in numbers, and those bandits were only like 50 or so in a tiny group.

Real blood gangs colonize villages, towns, and even cities.

They would never come out to hide in the woods just to steal goods.

Instead, they would have the entire town give them a certain percentage of their monthly products and money.

Hence these bandits who hid in the woods all day, were indeed small fries.Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

And generally since most merchants had stopped using these dangerous roads, most of these petty thieves had also changed their stealing locations to the other forest trails as well.

Anyway, Landon and his men had currently camped on top of a cliff that oversaw Reginal City.

Landon walked around their campsite and marked the entire region on the system.

In fact, ever since he had been moving about, he had been mapping and marking the trail on the system’s map.

Granted, he could see every other place in this world if he wanted to..... but when it wasn’t his territory, he would have to pay the system to do so.

He was trying to save more points to level up again, so how could he allow himself to be so thrifty?

Even though Carona wasn’t his territory, he still marked and added the trail and this campsite as part of his territory.

Some of them haven’t even eaten for several days now, while others haven’t even slept all through the night.

So tell me, is my sleep more important than theirs?

I can afford to this because I know how important this mission is.

I need you all to do your best during battle, hence you must go to bed now.

Every single one of you here is very dear to me, so I wouldn’t want any of you to loose your lives during battle because of sleep deprivation.

Now, I’ll say it one last time.... GO TO SLEEP!!"

This time, the men immediately obeyed.

They knew that his majesty was right.

But it was just that as they drifted away into dreamland, they still felt a bit of pain in their hearts at the thought that his majesty wasn’t sleeping as well.

Truthfully, there was nothing for them to be worried about.

’System..... inform me if anyone attempts to climb this hill from any direction.’ Landon said inwardly.

The cliff was currently at the edge of a tall hill.... and just below the cliff was the official road leading into Reginal city.

’Yes host’ the system replied.

"Also, inform me when any of my men have woken up as well!"

Normally, Landon would’ve used a Time capsule pill and rest within the sytem.

But in this particular situation, it would just be a waste of points.... which he didn’t have enough of.

1 hour in the real world was 5 days in the time capsule.... so since he had asked the men to sleep for 7.5 hours, wouldn’t that be too much time for him to spend within the time capsule just to sleep?

And even if he bought just 1 capsule, after 1 hour he would need to get out.... which would be around 6:30 A.M.

What’ll he be doing from that time till 1 P.M?

Sleeping in the real world was the only situation.

Hence he decided to climb on one of the massive trees a little distance from the camp, and sleep on it’s wide branches.

He had the system, so if anything happened.... he would know.

After making a comfortable tree bed, he quickly turned on his monitor and watched the campsite.

---zzzzzz---

The fatigued men were all fast asleep.

He closed his eyes shut, and immediately joined them in dreamworld.

Tonight was going to be bloody show.
