Thalion dashed toward the big tower where Kael and Sylas were standing.
"Hey, so where are the attackers?" Thalion asked as he looked around, seeing only so movents behind the trees after landing besides the two.
"They're gathering. I don’t know what their goal is, but I don’t think they want to attack. They are waiting for us to go out hunting," Kael said with a sour face.
"So you want to attack them?" Thalion asked a bit excited. This was a problem and could be a big indicator that they were supporting the undead faction. Which did not make much sense. Why would orcs support the undead?
"Are we completely surrounded, or is it just this side?" Thalion said while pointing in the direction where he had spotted movent.
"We are completely surrounded," Kael said in dismay, "and as long as they keep their distance, it will be very difficult to get rid of them."
"The good thing is that most hunting parties had already returned before the orcs did arrive," Sylas comnted, "but Lisa is still out there, along with Evelyn and Kargul."
"I could rouse them a bit and search for the others," Thalion suggested, trying to be helpful. Why did they not just fly over it? This all would give him a chance to travel to the mountains too. Well, just in case he couldn't help more, and a flying form would be very helpful in the fight against the orcs.
"How do you want to break through? The orcs have archers that will shoot you out of the sky when you try to fly over them," Kael said, shaking his head in disagreent.
"What were you even doing the whole day? No one saw you," Sylas asked, interested. Which was a bit of a weird question given the current situation.
"Cultivating," Thalion answered both their questions. "I think I will be fine." In no world would he wait here until the orcs had left. Yeah, it was definitely ti to get a bit crazy.
With that, he shot into the air. After he had climbed over 300 ters, he deed it high enough and dashed over the forest. The mont he had left the fortress, three-ter-long arrows were launched at him from the ground. His reflexes were so fast that he could dodge them easily at this current height.
He dashed over the orcs in the jungle. From above, he saw so tents between the trees. They definitely planned to stay here for a longer duration. After he passed the tents by over 500 ters and no arrows were fired at him, he dashed down. Thalion landed on a tree branch and transford into the umbral predator. Let's see how strong those orcs were. It was ti for carnage, Thalion thought with a crazy smile playing around his lips.
Kael looked on as he saw the crazy one fly off, just soaring over the orc blockade hiding in the jungle, dodging all the arrows shot at him with ease. Every other mage he knew would have died multiple tis at that point.
"Holy shit, how is he doing that?" Sylas said in disbelief, standing next to him.
"Doesn’t matter. Let’s prepare. When we see the fighting start, we will go in with small groups to slowly break the blockade," Kael said, his confidence rising. If Thalion didn't manage to create an opening for them, they might have to wait for the systemshop.
Thalion jumped from tree to tree. He could already hear the voices of the orcs. He noticed the effect his body tempering had. Even if it was only his skin, he felt how his power had grown, and his senses were sharper. His speed had also improved a bit. He wondered how strong the effect would be when he had fully infused his flesh and muscles.
He kept moving through the trees. His goal was to catch a group that was patrolling the periter, and he soon got lucky as a group of four orcs were moving in his direction.
