Chapter 223: The War that Decides the Fate of \'The Bridge\' Part 26

Jericho kindly welcomed the triplets to the Wing Boots Auction House, albeit they stayed on the floor below the penthouse as they can\'t allow them to hear what they are planning.

"Are you certain that those people aren\'t up to no good?" Gilbert was still cautious about the triplets down below their room.

Jericho wasn\'t one hundred percent certain, but he knows that he can trust them. "They should be trustworthy,"

"Let\'s set aside those triplets and focus on what we should be doing next?" Kayn muttered as he walked to the window of the penthouse.

Ever since they found the city, Jericho had specifically ordered his men to clear out the trees that were blocking the penthouse from seeing the location of the city.

So, from where he is standing right now, he could see clearly the city with smoke from the chimneys spread across almost everywhere imploding smoke into the dark sky, seemingly expressing its anger at the chaos that he has brought in it.

Grabbing the telescope he put on the side of the glass, he uses it in order to see what\'s currently taking place in the city after the chaos that happened.

From the entrance to the wall, he could see the security of the city had become even tighter compared to when the ball was taking place.

Multiple rows and columns of soldiers line up outside the city as if they preparing for something.

"Are they perhaps intending to flip the entire Daze Village upside down?" Kayn could only think of that possibility seeing the army the Assembly of Freedom has prepared.

In the next moment, his sight was attracted by multiple siege machines being pushed forward from the walls.

That\'s right, the walls opened up through an unknown mechanism and what came out from the holes were siege machines.

There were catapults, ballista, battering rams, siege towers, and cannons.

"Don\'t tell me they are really planning to attack the Daze Village?" Kayn was shocked upon seeing the siege machines.

"What\'s happening, Kayn?" Jericho quickly approaches.

Gilbert, Jude, Charles, Jadiel, and Randy also came after.

"Have a look," Kayn passed the telescope to Jericho.

"What the hell!" Jericho widened in shock. "You\'re not thinking what I am thinking, right?"

"I\'m afraid I am," Kayn can assume that the city is going to destroy the Daze Village.

"Why?"

"Because they want to find us,"

"Is that even reasonable?" Jericho can\'t believe the Assembly of Freedom is planning on destroying the Daze Village to find them.

"What about their allies?" Gilbert can\'t help wondering what will happen to their allies as almost all of them are currently staying in the Daze Village.

"This is just a small portion of their entire alliance, right?" Kayn looks at Jericho.

"Yes," Jericho confirmed. "The majority of their allies are spread everywhere around the Slumbering Forest. I think those that came to the ball are only the allies close to the Daze Village or have a base in this territory,"

"Would they consider the fact that you are in the Daze Village?" Gilbert turns to Jericho.

"They don\'t even consider the others, let alone me,"

"Then we should start evacuating everyone," Kayn suggested.

Just when they were about to begin the evacuation, they heard a hurried knock on the door.

Kayn and the others immediately positioned themselves as guards for Jericho as the latter approaches the door.

"Chairman Jericho, there\'s bad news!" Spinel expressed with a panicked voice.

"What\'s the matter?"

"I just received news from my spies in the Assembly of Freedom. Chief Kylo is…"

"Going to destroy the Daze Village!"I think you should take a look at

"Going to destroy the Daze Village!"

Azurite and Jade said at the same time.

"We already know," Jericho smiled.

"You knew?"

"We saw their army from the window,"

"What should we do now?" Jade asked in concern.

"We evacuate, obviously," Azurite rolled his eyes as it was very obvious what they would do.

"That\'s right," Jericho confirmed. "There\'s an underground passage underneath the Daze Village that businesses like us use for our important transactions. We will be using it in our evacuation,"

Spinel, Azurite, and Jade breath in relief.

"Go out and find Master Khalid. Ask him for instructions on the evacuation," Jericho patted Spinel\'s shoulder.

"We own you one, Chairman Jericho," Spinel expressed his appreciation before quickly leaving along with Azurite and Jade.

As soon as the triplets left, Kayn and everyone quickly left to prepare for the evacuation.

An hour or so later, the army the Assembly of Freedom had prepared was still standing still in front of the city.

"They\'re not moving yet," Gilbert updated using a mouthpiece that\'s equipped with a wire that connects two mouthpieces together with the other end located at the warehouse underground.

"How\'s the progress with the evacuation?" Kayn quickly asked.

"We\'ve already transported all the valuables we needed," Jericho responded. "We are now evacuating all the staff,"

"It shouldn\'t take long," Kayn looks at Gilbert. "Let\'s go down,"

"Are you sure? We need someone to constantly send them updates," Gilbert was worried.

"I think we don\'t have to anymore," Kayn muttered as his eyes stared at the window.

The army of the Assembly of Freedom was finally making a move.

"Let\'s go now!"

The distance between the city and the Daze Village isn\'t honestly that far away, just around twenty kilometers or so. Based on the speed of the army, it should only take them less than ten minutes to reach in front of the Daze Village.

"We have less than five minutes to finish the evacuation," Kayn informed Jericho.

"Alright!" Jericho ended the communication.

"I thought there were ten?" Gilbert was confused.

"We still have to travel from the Wing Boots Auction House to the exit of the Daze Village. If we leave in ten minutes, that means we will have less time to get out of this territory,"

"Okay,"

Kayn and Gilbert quickly left the penthouse and made their way to the underground warehouse.

As soon as they arrived, the evacuation was about to be finished.

"Great! You both are finally here," Jericho felt relieved as he was anxious when the duo did not respond on the mouthpiece.

"Can we evacuate now?"

"Yes," Jericho nodded.

With that being said, everyone from the Wing Boots Auction House started moving to the exit of the Daze Village.
