However, they soon discerned the figure in the black robe at top the magical tiger, realizing she was a formidable mage.

Though the Andy Holy State was under the dominion of angels and paladins, the mage association was the supreme force among humans, and they would undoubtedly recognize the mage who protected them.

Furthermore, anyone dawned in a black robe could not possibly be an apprentice.

Seeing Bayou approach, the two men immediately knelt before her, understanding that such a personage was likely one they would encounter only a handful of times in their lives.

Bayou dismounted from the tiger, observing their reaction, and surmised that she had effectively intimidated them.

She wished to adopt a deep, grally voice.

But her attempts had proven feudal.

Lacking any training in voice modulation, she could only speak in her natural tone, which would undoubtedly reveal her femininity.

Oh well, a girl it is then.

You need not feel anxious.

I hail from a mage association branch in hapuni state.

Due to a tumultuous disruption in the space-time continuum during my transportation, I arrived in Andes State, albeit not precisely at this branch.

As it is my inaugural visit to this place, I would appreciate your guidance in locating the local association branch.

Upon hearing a feminine voice, the two individuals prostrated before me, paused momentarily.

The voice sounded youthful, leading them to wonder if I might be a disciple of some grand mage.

Overwhelmed with astonishment, they dared not exhibit any negligence.

For assisting me here could potentially lead to their remarkable rise, should I bestow upon them even the slightest favor.

Your excellency, you are too gracious.

It is our duty to assist.

We remain eternally grateful for the stability and prosperity granted to us by the great mages, the saviors of humanity.

We one of the kneeling figures began earnestly only to be abruptly interrupted by his companion who scolded him for his foolishness.

Aware that mages prioritize efficiency and should not indulge in superfluous discourse.

Esteemed one, you stand in the empire of Janon and your association branch is situated within the city of Ling Shiao, approximately 500 km to the northwest.

The other individual succinctly responded to my inquiry.

As citizens of the Jean Empire, they were well aware of the mage's whereabouts, even if they were oblivious to the location of the Imperial City.

Thank you.

I turned to mount my magical tiger, and a gentle breeze swept through, causing the two prostrate figures to faint instantly.

I refrained from taking their lives, as it would invite unnecessary complications.

A mere slumber sufficed.

To the northwest lay Ling Sha City.

Gazing at the glaring sun overhead, I found it impossible to discern the direction.

However, by correlating my previous trajectory and orientation, I swiftly deduced the path.

500 km.

Let's commence.

Upon reaching our destination, I shall release you.

I gave a firm pad on the tiger's rear, and we set off once more.

This time with a clear objective, straight to Ling Sha City.

In Hapuni state within the Emerald Hills, the castle of his siblings Jon and Lenny stood.

After their departure, Sars and Jack became the highest commanders here, having achieved level eight leadership with a rank of king not far out of reach.

Before them stood an entire orc tribe, with even its chieftain present, the opposing force comprised over 10,000 orc warriors, representing the full might that this tribe could muster.

Before this assembly of orc warriors stood five silhouettes, undoubtedly all of kingly status.

With the orc chieftain being the strongest among them, a challenge insurmountable for the current SARS, Jack and their legion of undead.

Even a thousand undead would prove inadequate.

Jack return to the main city and contact the queen.

Sars with blue luminescence flickering in the eyes of his azure mask instructed Jack.

Without hesitation, Jack turned and entered the portal back to the castle.

Sars did not seek assistance.

He was aware that the current undead forces were engaged in an assault on the goblin kingdom and could not provide aid, and he understood that White was not present in the castle.

What he needed to ascertain was whether, if necessary, they should abandon these two castles.

Jack remained silent, but comprehended Sar's intent.

Emerging from the portal, Jack promptly reccalibrated his objective and re-entered the transdimensional gateway.

His intention to notify Bayou, who resided far away in another state, necessitated the involvement of her subjects and allies.

Clearly, the allegiance of her subjects was stronger.

And given that Chunfong and Chinua were preoccupied on the battlefield, it was imperative for Jack to seek out Xiao Liian's castle.

Meanwhile, Xiao Lian Shiua, with little to occupy her time within the castle, found her daily amusement in perusing the global chat and supervising the dwarves in their crafting of equipment and resource production.

Upon noticing the system notification regarding the portal, she swiftly set aside her cross legs resting on the table and hurried out of the castle, only to be met by the unexpected sight of a figure that resembled a zombie, a being of the undead.

Chapter 257.

The devil's assistance, please inform her majesty, the queen, that the orc tribe from the Emerald Hills is advancing.

We are unable to withstand their assault.

Should we abandon that place? Jack succinctly conveyed the gravity of the situation, refraining from elaborating on the events that transpired.

Defeat is defeat.

He sought no justification for their plight.

Xiaoi and Shua, oblivious to recent happenings in Bayou, had remained in seclusion and was unaware of the dire circumstances.

She did not know that Bayou was trapped, nor was she informed about the offensive against the Goblin Kingdom or the upgrades to the undead city.

Ishua assumed that Bayou had merely left the castle for some reason, and that the undead were reaching out to her for assistance.

She did not ponder why they had not contacted the siblings or why the undead were unable to fend off the orc tribe.

Meanwhile, Bayou, who was on route, received Xiao Liua's message.

Although the details were somewhat vague, Bayou grasped the essence of the situation.

The Orc tribe had mobilized in full force.

While the main strength of the undead was occupied in the Goblin Kingdom with only Sars, Jack and two royal level undead remaining.

They stood no chance against their adversaries.

Reinforcements could not be drawn from the Goblin Kingdom.

And while Bayou lacked precise information about the battle, it was evident that things were not progressing smoothly.

Otherwise, the royal level undead would have come to aid the Emerald Hills, and Xiaoi and Shua would not have reached out to her.

Was it to be the abandonment of the Siblings Castle? Though the Orc Empire lay some distance from the Bayan Mountains, it was not an insurmountable distance.

The Undead Fortress remained at her disposal.

The Orc Empire could not evade them.

Bayou was reluctant to relinquish the castle that held the potential for upgrade.

Recognizing its significance, suddenly inspiration struck her as she patted the back of the magic tiger.

She was no longer a lone wolf.

She could enlist the help of Lee Lingi and Du Yong.

This collaboration could allow her to retain the castle while effectively neutralizing the Orc tribe.

As for whom to approach, Duong was the only choice.

Leelings was preoccupied with the forest elf kingdom and likely could not assist.

Du Yang, the hotheaded fighter, was perfectly suited for the task.

Bayou, are you free to l a hand? Duong, what? How did you know I've reached level two royal? Bayou, Du Yang, I have time for fighting, but nothing else.

Bayou, come to my castle immediately.

It is urgent.

Bring several royal level fighters.

Our opponents are formidable.

I will have my subordinates assist you.

Du Yang, there is no enemy that a level two royal cannot handle.

Perhaps this was what was termed a typical male attitude.

Bayou chose not to respond further and redirected her focus to Xiao Yianua, sending her a message before continuing her journey at top the magic tiger.

On the other side, upon receiving Bayou<unk>s reply, Xiaoin promptly relayed the information to Jack and together they traversed the portal.

Just then, Dong had also just arrived.

Spotting Xiao Liian and Jack nearby.

Lead the way, he instructed immediately recognizing that this woman was under by command.

He proceeded toward the hall with two demons in tow.

As Du Yang pushed open the door, Xiaoi and Shuv beheld the scene outside, leaving both of them in shock.
