"Halt!

Who the hell are you all?"

"_"

No matter how one looked at it, the only way to reach King Micheal's bedroom... was to pass through several guards just on his wing alone.

When one ascended onto the 3rd floor, they would immediately find themselves in a wide space which seemed like a hallway that circled through the entire 3rd floor.

The space was like a parlour or a living room of some sorts..... as it had chairs, tables and other homely features to it.

Also..... within the space, one would find 8 hallways all positioned just like the arrows in a compass.

There was the North, Northeast, East, Southeast, South.... and so on.

Typically, there were supposed to be a lot of guards all around the massive parlour..... but with the commotion that went on, the guards probably went to protect their masters within the wings.

Of course, Landon and his team had seen a few on the parlour and had even chatted with them.

So that part was really a breeze to them.

But once they walked through the South-Wing hallway... they immediately saw 12 burly men stationed outside a massive golden gate there.

These guards didn't seem like the rest, as they were more serious than the others.

As for the guards here, they knew all the guards were assigned to 'guard' king Micheal.... as these people were specially handpicked by either queen Kamara or Nopline.

So seeing these new faces, how could they dare to let unauthorized people in?

Immediately, they kept their guard up with these guards that they couldn't identify.

As for Landon and the rest, they had already decided to make their move on these men..... but they had to do so silently without alerting those behind the golden door.

"Seniors... it's terrible outside.

We are all dying like chickens out there!

So can we just sit by your sides instead?" One of the soldiers said pitifully..... as he walked towards the

"So what if you're dying out there like chickens!

No matter what, you are not supposed to even be in this hallway right now!" Bellowed one of the guards there.

And as Landon and the rest spoke, they slowly limped and advanced forward.... so as to show that they didn't mean any harm to the men.

Also...all this while as they advanced towards the guards, Landon had been secretly giving out orders with his hands.

So when they were somewhat close enough to the guards, Landon immediately straightened his shoulders and the rest did the same as well.

'Eh?... weren't they previously limping?' The guards questioned themselves.

'Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din! Din!'

Immediately, 12 soldiers from Landon's side quickly ran forward to take care of the 12 guards who were also standing guards at the golden door.

The guards opened their eyes widely... as they were first immersed in a brief state of confusion.

But then, when they thought of the battle that was going on outside, they immediately knew that these men might be imposters.

Of course, before they could even unsheath their swords and prepare for battle.... their opponents were already standing before them ready for action.

Dammit!

Warrant officer Hayden quickly dashed towards one of the guards, and swiftly aimed for his enemy's belly.

But when his enemy attempted to block his attack by doing a cross with his hands..... Hayden smirked instead.

Typical!

Hayden then firmly gripped his enemy's hands and used it as a pillar.... as he lifted himself from the ground, placing a firm kick to his enemy's face.

'Pitchu!!'

'Ah!....'

'Pitchu!'

His aim was to be as swift as possible, while giving no room for his enemy to make very loud noises.

So of course when his enemy had fallen down and was about to yell again..... he swiftly punched his face again and hurriedly took out his silencer.

'Peeu!'

The bullet went straight through the man's head in a flash....immediately causing the struggling body to soon give in to death's call.

Hayden then pulled the body to the side, and then looked around to see if anyone else needed help.

When all 12 soldiers were done with their task, they all looked at Landon as if saying: 'All Done Sir'.

From there, the gang continued to deal with more and more guards as they went through the entire South-wing.

The wing was extremely massive, as the hallway that they had just been in.... led to another door, which finally led to a massive parlour that could entertain at least 500 people within it all at once.

And just at the other side of the room.... was another stairway that led to multiple doors.

2 of those doors were silvery... with the middle one being extremely big and golden.

Off the bat, Landon had guessed that the silvery ones were like guest rooms within the wing, and the golden one with king Micheal's personal bedroom chamber.

All-in-all, they had taken care of all the guards and had finally arrived at Micheal's doorstep.

Landon raised his left hand and began a countdown with them.

'3..... 2...1...'

'Bam!'

The door was pried open by them, and immediately..... a few of the warrant officers rolled in and quickly used their silencers to begin the show.

'Peeu! Peeu! Peeu!' Peeu!' Peeu!'

These men had no idea what kind of weapons their enemy was using, as they found themselves dropping to the floor like flies.

In this case, what would running with swords towards them do?

'Peeu! Peieu! Peeu!' Peeu!' Peeu!'

At this point, Landon and also ran in with their guns all out.... as the room alone had over 100 men within it.

Immediately..... some of the guards started trembling from fear, as they watched their friends die just like that.

How can people just die without the weapon actually touching them?

Wasn't this just sorcery?

Sweat quickly formed on their backs, and they couldn't help but cry a little.

F***!

Who the hell had had master Nopline pissed off?
