The battle felt one-sided even though the number of the enemy side was greater but they had no advantage because not only their unequal abilities but also because they did not control the terrain.
The forest around the village of Genteng has been reorganized by Joan, in addition to maintaining the production forest, Joan also made a natural defense in the forest around the village by making a maze pattern so that people can enter but it will be difficult to get out if they do not master the pattern.
The forest also had such dense vegetation that people found it hard to see the sun from the depths of the forest. This caused the person who escaped the ambush to end up just circling around inside the forest.
They were all from the capital, of course they were very foreign to the profile of that area. The leader of the assassin squad was very sorry to have accepted the task because they brought in three hundred comrades but now there were only ten people who could escape. They are also the most highly educated among the people sent for this task.
"Uh, damn it, why doesn't anyone tell us that there's a Master Lung there. I thought it was an easy task, only to catch the weak third prince from poisoning. Who suppose".
"Yes right, I just saw he's not like a poisoned man. Who says he's weak, I think I want to cut him into five pieces and how the little village has such a strong army"
"Yes, not only are they strong but their army is not only made up of the shadow guard troops of the third prince but there is also a look among them members of the organization of the assassins of the Black Shadow and to my surprise, there's master Lung, he's the vice-chairman of the Black Shadow assassin organization".
"That's what baffles me, even though the Black Shadow's murderous organization was our rival all along but they never crossed paths with them. I then heard that the first prince had also assigned them to hunt down the third prince. Why did they help him today ".
The murderers talked among themselves, of course, to the wildest of them, never would they have thought that this black Shadow mercenary army had already joined the Genteng village because they all knew the level of difficulty for their kind people to leave the organization.
They usually prefer suicide rather than betraying the organization because their whole life will never be separated from being a fugitive even their family will also not be separated from the danger even though the family does not understand their profession the truth.
"Right, but how does it seem that we've all been just circling around this place huh".
"Let us walk again, Kok Seng hurt the bark of the tree that we have passed so that we do not return through the same path"
Kok Seng, whose full name is Mang Kok Seng, immediately carried out his boss' orders. He who walked at the very back, incised his knife into each tree they passed in how many meters but after walking all day, how frustrating they were because they found that they were back on the road they were on before.
After trying out how many other paths and still returning to the original path, they can only look at it and start feeling stressed but one of them has an idea, he said, he climbed up into a tree high enough to see his surroundings but all he saw was the green dense foliage that filled all the plots of forest land as far as his eyes could see.
He jumped back down, meeting his comrades. Shaking his head, he said heavily
"Sorry, there seems to be no way out from above, we better set up a tent and rest for tonight and tomorrow we will go back to find a way out ".
"Well, I'm tired too".
They immediately set up a tent and rested there that night, they did not dare to make a bonfire for fear that it would attract the attention of the enemy. They could only eat dried meat and hard bread for dinner.
They are very grateful to remember their friends who do not know what their fate is. That night was meant to be a long night for them. It had been made a turn to keep watch but still it did not make them calm so that no one could sleep well that night.
In the middle of the night, the eyeballs glow blue like bright lights in the dark of night, suddenly making the guard become alert. The slight movement automatically woke up his other colleagues who only closed their eyes but found it difficult to sleep well.
They were already in a state of combat alert when those eye rays dimmed and disappeared just like that. No one had any intention of examining what those blue-colored eye rays represented. Silent in how many moments, they slowly released their vigilance and were about to return to rest when suddenly.
"Whoarrr".
One loud roar made the ground they were stepping on tremble, they suddenly woke up again and held tightly to their weapons. They were silently waiting for the impending attack but there was no movement whatsoever, the state returning in a strange silence.
They look at each other. It's a little bit clumsy, you both don't understand what's happening. Nothing acts as if the sound is not coming from near them.
"Whoarrr".
The roar sounded even louder, the ground shook again, making them unable to stand up straight, there was nothing else. Still the same silence, no movement whatsoever.
Their foreheads were filled with sweat, the night was very cold but somehow they felt the air become hot.
They were feeling very depressed, someone yelled to throw his frustration.
"Damn it, don't just scare us, come out, kill us if you can".
No sound came out to answer his question. A strange silence, my fur began to stand. The sound of the roar was no longer heard.
"Whoarrrr, Whoarrrr"
Two roars sounded in succession, the ground trembled back even harder, their bodies swaying but back nothing happened.
It was repeated every half hour, that night they were really stressed and tired. Their eyes were each circled by a black line. None of them fell asleep, they just stood up all night feeling tired and helpless.
As the curtains of the night lifted and the sunlight entered between the leaves, they looked around. There were no footprints of any kind on the ground around them, from the roars and vibrations of the ground. They concluded it should have been a very large animal that came last night.
Strangely there were no signs of their presence, no footprints, no broken twigs, as if last night was just an overnight sound just an illusion.
On the other hand, a little far from where they are. A group of joyful-looking people together surrounded the nearly extinguished campfire, enjoying the steaming hot coffee and the roast of each in their hands.
"How about Andi, are we going to catch them right now or are we letting them for one more night".
Master Lung who asked, he looked very pleased.
"As far as master Lung is concerned, if he still wants to play with them again, I've already notified Joan and she'll come tomorrow morning "
"Okay, then while waiting for the lady's arrival, we let them enjoy the night's fun again"
Mo Yi and his comrades thought, what pleasure, there must be a feeling of stress and anxiety experienced by ten people from the group of assassins. Indeed last night was their deed, they brought ten silver-robed Wolves to circle the tents of those people. Bringing the three-horned rhino to roar near the tents of the unlucky ones. There is a secret door to enter and exit the labyrinth that is impossible to know other than the guards of Genteng village.
It was again a tiring and confusing day for the group of people. Back they searched for a way out and back around in circles only to find that they would return at their original point, there were many trees marked in different ways. Surprisingly they still could not find the tree that had been marked in the previous day.
That night when they were very tired, last night happened again. The dark circles in their eyes are getting thicker and they are getting more stressed.
"Ah, we give up, we're done. I'd rather die honorably in your hands. Come on out and kill us now".
"Generated, ha ha ha ha".
A body figure was suddenly seen there, a young woman.
"Get On's".
The woman said something, instantly the ten disappeared and in an instant, they had reappeared, lined up neatly before the woman. This time he was not alone, a group of men suddenly appeared behind him.
They with a feeling of awe and adoring gaze saw the female's small back and the ten sky-roofed assassins bow and salute.
"Young lady"
