Chapter 225: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 28

"I finally understand why you choose that person to manage this branch of the Wing Boots Auction House. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if you make him the CEO of all the Wing Boots Auction House from now on," Kayn looks at Jericho in approval before glimpsing at Master Khalid.

Master Khalid's experience as a merchant that he had shown just now isn't something that a lot of people with the same class as him could replicate or even think about. He basically showed everyone one of the unique combat capabilities of the merchant class.

The majority of people who picked the merchant class only believe that their way of fighting is by developing weapons and other means of combat tools. In truth, they actually have another way to fight, and that is by using those tools they developed for themselves.

It wasn't yet time for that style of fighting to exist. But back in the second life, a new class of merchants rose to fame and they called themselves the Mechanic.

Unlike with the Levitation Scepter, he can inform the world about the class Mechanic ahead of time.

Although it would no doubt bring about a butterfly effect to the current timeline, it should give more benefits to him compared to disadvantages.

While Kayn was considering inwardly making Master Khalid the catalyst for the birth of the Mechanic class, everyone has finally broken through the army of the Assembly of Freedom after the latter's method of openly bribing the soldiers succeded.

However, it wasn't yet the end.

With the number of soldiers present, the treasures Master Khalid threw away only lasted for a brief moment. It was only enough to let them pass through their defense and soon after that, they went after to chase them.

"I thought they would go after those people we left behind," Jericho felt slightly disappointed. Although some soldiers decided not to chase since the majority of people who were trying to escape still haven't broken through their wall.

"This is perfect!" Kayn suddenly realized. "We will take care of these soldiers once we get inside the forest,"

"Understood,"

Everyone acknowledged.

It didn't take long for everyone to finally enter the forest.

If there's one thing these soldiers forgot to consider, that is the fact that the Herald Guild is a den full of thieves. Although not everyone possesses the assassin class, that doesn't change the fact that they possess the skills of a thief.

The instant everyone got inside the forest, as if hunters of the night, everyone disappeared within the shadows.

Those that possess the merchant class continued running along the path though, as they are going to attract the soldiers' attention while everyone positions themselves nearby.

The soldiers didn't mind the disappearance of the others, as they believe these people would try to save themselves just like what they did back then in the city.

Unbeknownst to the soldiers, the group they are chasing right now is actually the real perpetrator behind the chaos back them. They didn't retreat simply to save themselves, they retreated because they already succeeded in their mission.

Like clueless rodents running under the cover of the night sky, the soldiers continued to chase after the running targets.

As they got deeper and deeper into the forest, the trap that Kayn had set up got tighter and tighter around them.

In the next moment, an arrow that carries a dynamite with it landed right in the middle of the soldier's formation.

"Watch out!"

Boom!

It was already too late for the warning as the arrow exploded the instant it hit the ground.

The formation of the soldiers was immediately broken and all of them got scattered into places. I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

Taking the opportunity while all soldiers were still trying to recover from the explosion, everyone hiding the in shadows launch their attacks.

Whoosh!

Dozens of arrows rained from the sky.

Boom!

pandasnovel.com Bang!

The Guardians used their <<Shield Dash>> to further push the group away from each other and toward where plenty of men from the Wing Boots Auction House patiently waited for an ambush.

Clang!

A series of metal hitting again metal sounded as the fight officially began.

Kayn waves his sword, as he hurls a <<Molten Ice Slash>> toward the dense crowd that the Guardians have gathered.

Boom!

The enemy Guardian tried to block the attack, but as a result, he got blasted away to the tree nearby where he meet his unfortunate death in the hands of assassins hiding nearby.

As <<Molten Ice Slash>> continues to travel forward, it soon cut the lives away from the unprotected soldiers.

Gilbert, Jude, Charles, Jericho, Jadiel, and Randy also went ahead and harvested the lives of the soldiers they met.

In that kind of manner, the number of soldiers slowly dwindled down.

However, it wasn't all happy and merry for the Wing Boots Auction House.

There were Executives and elite members among the soldiers of the Assembly of Freedom present. As a result of that, a fair amount of Jericho's men fell and died on their hands.

Moreover, as they look in the direction of the Daze Village, they could see the soldiers' reinforcement quickly approaching them. In their groups were clearly more Executives and elite members.

It was at this moment that Kayn realized they should have continued escaping instead of facing this group of soldiers.

That small dosage of arrogance from the continuous successful operation caused him to lose sight of their real goal and in the end, they lost men that weren't supposed to die if only they had continued on their way.

"Retreat!" Kayn issued.

Without any hesitation, everyone swiftly left the scene and followed after the merchants of the Wing Boots Auction House that continued ahead.

"That was a mistake," Kayn blamed himself.

"No," Gilbert shook his head. "The triplets betrayed us,"

"What?" Jericho was shocked.

"You'll see soon," Gilbert knew that something wasn't right ever since they evacuated.
