BXBX NOVEL Chapter 163: Attack!
The once crystal clear moat now turned completely black as ink. It ev started spreading toward the river, contaminating everything.
Alex smirked, seeing the result of his work. What he just spilled was oil. Alex had many barrels stored because he planned to sd them to the Cultivation world.
It's not prepared to fuel ergy or gerators but to create a factory to produce a more dangerous liquid.
DragonFire gel is a flammable liquid that sticks and burns intsely. It's an hanced form of Napalm, using the same material mixed with another exotic material from the dungeon, Basilisk's Resin.
This Resin is a sap from a unique tree that has strange properties. It has a very strong adhesive but only reacts to organic material.
So, a dragon fire gel will make a flame that only burns living beings. It's a very destructive weapon. But Alex didn't have any Basilisk Resin, so he still held onto the barrel of oil.
As oil is less dse than water, it quickly made its way to the water's surface and th gathered there.
The next thing he did was unleash the monsters he captured from the forest.
"GROOOARR!!!!" A roar of beasts could be heard from over the moat as many monsters suddly appeared suring the castle. With their large size, it only took hundreds of them to completely sur the castle.
The Geral's eyes wided; this was the first time in all his life he saw monsters materialize out of nowhere.
"What are you bumpkins dazing for! Move! Kill all of them!" The geral ordered.
The soldiers quickly moved into position; they took out their rifles and th locked onto the monsters, some of them moved to the turret.
'I recognize these monsters; they all come from the forbidd forest; just how did all of them reach here?' The Geral questioned in his mind.
Th, a thought surfaced in his mind. He remembered the Forbidd Forest has a few monsters they categorize as kings. These monsters were giants, each of them easily the size of their towering buildings, but this is not what made them scary.
Each king had some intelligce and special abilities. He quickly contacted everyone manning the wall on the other side. Making sure that his king didn't appear. Ev though he was sure they could kill it, this could easily create big casualties.
They may have a big moat and giant wall protecting the palace, but behind the monsters, it's a freeway toward the city; they could easily massacre the civilians, sowing chaos everywhere.
He started contacting the local authorities to evacuate the civilians and block the area.
Thankfully, since the area was a the palace, it was filled with nobles. Each of them had their own army and already knew what to do. So, the evacuation wt without a hitch.
But the Geral's worry for public safety was not necessary. All monsters were under Alex's order. They will attack the castle to their deaths.
BRrrrrttt!!! Bang! BANG! BANG!
Bullets shot through the air while the monsters roared. They started marching, trying to ter the castle from the moat and ev the bridge toward the gate.
Alex's position is now on the opposite side of the main trance. Seeing the chaos start, he th took out an incdiary grade. With one motion, he threw it into the moat.
BOOM!
The grade exploded; it took no time for fire to spread to the moat. At the same time, Alex covered his body and th jumped into the moat.
He took out an underwater scooter. It's a device that helps to propel him underwater. Increasing his speed ev further.
As the monsters were still confused by the sudd change of vironmt, Alex used the opportunity to move quickly to the secret trance.
He tered the underg water tunnel, taking him inside the palace. Reaching his destination, Alex carefully swam, reaching the wall, as he put the water scooter back into his storage ring.
He th slowly rose close to the surface. Above the water, there is a platform guarded by two armed soldiers. The soldiers had their backs pointed at the water.
Usually, there are more guards here, but since the palace was attacked, the guards were moved toward the wall to fight against the invaders.
"Did you hear? The palace was attacked; I wonder who had the nerve to do this."
"Is it those terrorist groups? The one calling for the complete removal of the royalty?"
"Those people don't know what they are talking about. There is no way we can completely remove the royalty."
"Well, can you blame them? You know how prejudiced most of them toward the normal people is?"
"That reminds me, do you remember the fourth prince? I heard his girlfrid is a commoner. So not all royalty is like that."
"What, girlfrid? That is because he had no choice. You don't know; there are rumors that the prince cannot get it up."
"For real?" The guard wanted to say more but suddly felt a grip on his ankle; in the next momt, he was pulled inside the water. This quickly made the other guard alert. He turned his gaze, looking behind him, but it was too late.
BAM!
Alex hit him in the neck, turning him unconscious. He th threw both of them into the Awe cube. Looking at the locked door, Alex didn't ev bother to try to lockpick it.
With everything in chaos outside and the guards busy attacking the animals, he took out, but he knew it wouldn't last long. The flame he ignited also turned the moat impassable for the monsters.
So all of them now were gathered at the bridge, becoming target practice for the guards. It won't take long for them to finish them all. After that, they will start combing the palace since it's only a matter of time for them to find out the two guards missing from the dock.
