Chapter 294: Capturing The Bandits

294- Capturing the Bandits

Since their drawings have reached the town, the group knew that it wont be long before people will find their homes because Orochi knows that there should be few people who should have seen him or others from his group walking around in the town.

Although, Orochis strength has grown and he is not afraid of anyone. At least not afraid of the Willow Sword Sect or the Chan clan; as for Jaraal, he is not afraid of him but Orochi still has some vigilance against Jaraal because a guy with his identity will surely have a strong bodyguard hidden or next to him.

And since, he cannot risk exposing Junes identity and can only depend on himself, he can only plan ahead and escape & hide before people find out his whereabouts, at least for a few days.

So, after thinking about it for a few minutes, the group decided to take some rest and in the middle of the night, they will sneak out of the town.

And after such a plan was made, the group immediately decided to implement it.

So, in the middle of the night, when the whole town was sleeping, Orochis group made their way towards the town wall which had a smaller number of guards and had many blind spots, which made it easier for the group to escape without alerting anyone.

Near the town wall, Orochi and June were holding the Xavier family in their hands and they were already knocked out, so it was easier to carry them as they did not struggle or make any kind of noise.

Then June restrained her aura to the limit and took the group and flew to the top of the wall.

Luckily no guard spotted them, and they got down from the wall and ran away from the town.

After running a few kilometers away from the town, the group stopped and discussed their next set of plans.

Actually, there was nothing to discuss and the group simply moved in the direction pointed by June where she found the bandit group occupying the place that Orochi wanted for his cultivation.

The place June found was about 60 kilometers away from their current position, so the group immediately made their way towards the place.

After an hour of traveling at a moderate speed, the group finally reached a valley.

Since it was still nighttime and the moon could barely light the area, it was all dark. And the valley looked like a never ending dark hole, just like a deep abyss in which if one falls, they will never come back.

But thats what it looked like, but in reality, the valley was not so deep.

According to June, it was only a kilometer deep as she had already explored the place earlier. And the bandit group was situated in the middle region, inside a cave.

With this knowledge, the group made their way down into the valley.

As both June and Armelia belong to the snake race, they have their means so it was not a problem for them to walk in this dark environment.

And with Orochis vision coupled with the abilities, he got from the system; it is not a problem for him to walk unhinderedly in the valley.

Along the way the group encountered a few hidden bandits that were located in various places, guarding and making sure that no enemy could sneak into their stronghold, and even if anyone did, they could inform their companions about the attack.

Of course, before they could spot Orochis group, Orochi would sneak towards them and knock them unconscious, instead of killing them because he has some work that only these group of bandits can do. And then, Orochi would gag their mouths and tie them, so that after he makes the bandit group surrender to him, he can bring these guarding bandits under him to make them work.

After tying up more than a dozen bandits, Orochis group finally reached the entrance of the cave in which the actual bandit group hides.

After reaching, the group did not immediately enter the cave, instead, Orochi took out a flower called the Dreamy Daffodil.

Dreamy Daffodil is a flower that releases a kind of fragrance that can put humans to sleep if sniffed.

And if the flower is burnt, then the effect gets maximized by 100 times. And it can even put strong cultivators in the realm of Super Human stage to sleep within half a minute.

He found these Dreamy Daffodils in the cave of the Purple Hide Crocodiles.

So, at the entrance of the cave, he burnt more than 30 Dreamy Daffodils with the fire made by June and let the smoke produced fill the entire cave.

Being in the Royalty realm, it is not difficult for June to control the flow of wind. So, with her abilities, the cave was soon filled with smoke and hardly anything could be seen.

Then the group waited for another 20-30 minutes to make sure that no one escapes from the effects of Dreamy Daffodils.

Swish

Swish

Then June waved her hands and let fresh air fill the cave, to empty the smoke released by Dreamy Daffodils.

After a few more minutes, when the group felt their vision was not obstructed inside the cave, both June and Orochi stepped into the caves and started to look for the bandits inside the cave.

Ignoring June, who should not be affected by the Dreamy Daffodils, just in case Orochi held his breath when he entered the cave.

After Orochi entered the cave, he saw many bandits knocked out in their sleep. While, few bandits who were supposed to guard or lookout when others are sleeping, had fallen on the ground due to the effects of Dreamy Daffodils.

And there were also few bandits, who according to Orochis guess were sharp enough to sense that something was wrong with the air they were breathing and wanted to struggle or escape or call out their companions, but in the end, everything turned vain because of the strong effects of Dreamy Daffodils.

Then both June and Orochi dragged out all the unconscious bandits out of the cave and tied them together. And it took them more than 10 minutes to do this.

And another 20 minutes to drag back all the remaining tied up bandits that were knocked out when Orochis group descended into the valley.

After counting, it was determined that there were about 64 bandits in this valley.

Now, the Orochis group needs to wait for these 64 bandits to wake up from their sleep.

So, until then, Orochi walked back into the bandits cave and started to search for their treasury or loot or gains or whatever they call it.

Inside the cave, there were not only bandits, there were also many people a.k.a prisoners or slaves kept.

They numbered up to 16. 10 women, 4 men, and 2 children both males.

Due to the smoke produced by Dreamy Daffodils, they too were knocked out and were lying on the ground in their cells.

These prisoners should be those people who should have been arrested when this group of bandits had looted their targets.

Looking at their looks and conditions, it can be seen that these prisoners were not treated with even a bit of humanity, their bodies were covered with various bruises, Starving bodies, etc.

Especially women, they should have been rap*d many times by this group of bandits.

Sigh

Shaking his head, Orochi left this group of prisoners and moved deep into the cave.
