The Author's POV

Chapter 344

344 Beginning of the assault[2]

Ohmm— Ohmm—

A repetitive humming sound echoed, and what followed after were the tapping of footsteps, each sounding different. Some were heavier, some lighter, and others so faint that unless one paid close attention, they wouldn't be able to hear it.

Slowly, emerging from the portal that Douglas had set up, were the elders and the respective fighters of the other race.

"What's going on?"

"Where be ye?"

"Where is this?"

The moment they became aware of their surroundings, a multitude of different questions rang in the air. An atmosphere of anticipation and slight nervousness ensued.

"Please be quiet for now."

Waiting on the other side of the portal, Douglas tried to organize everyone present.

Because of the number of people present, it took quite a while for them to get out of the portal.

As the dwarves, orcs, and elves came out of the portal, the transparent shield that was enveloping them expanded. This of course was at the expenditure of Waylan's mana. However, for someone of his rank, this amount of mana was nothing worth taking note of. Plus, Waylan was willing to give it his all to make sure every step of the plan he was responsible for went flawlessly.

It took a lot of time to organize everyone, and by the time the last batch came out from the portal, only five minutes remained.

"…That should be the last group left."

Coming out of the portal, Waylan headed towards Douglas.

Glancing at everyone and making sure that there were no problems, Waylan asked in a calm tone that belied his inner emotions.

"Have you organized everyone properly?"

"There should be no problems for now."

Turning to face everyone present, Douglas looked at the leaders and elders of each group, beckoning them to come towards him.

Because they had always been focusing their whole attention towards them, the moment Douglas called for their attention, they immediately moved towards him.

"What have you gathered us here for?" Randur, one of the dwarven elders, asked.

With his brows tightly knit, he looked around the place.

"Where exactly are we?"

"You don't have to worry about that."

Waylan replied with a small smile.

"All you have to do is listen to us and we can get this over with without a hitch."

At Waylan's words, Randur stopped speaking.

Satisfied with the outcome, Waylan looked at everyone present and asked, "I'm sure most of you are wondering about what you are doing here. Am I right?"

Without giving them a chance to answer, Waylan glanced at his watch and continued to speak.

"Listen up closely. We only have about five minutes left before we start the operation."

Turning his attention towards Gernis, who was silently standing in the middle of the group, Waylan gave out instructions.

"We're going to separate into two groups. One group will consist of all the elite warriors that are here, and the other group will be made up of the strongest present here. The lowest rank amongst that group will be rank, and we can only have a maximum of five people in the group."

Turning his head right, Waylan looked at Gernis.

"…Well, if we exclude me and you, it would be three."
