Chapter 512 Ghost in the Hideout
Chapter 512 Ghost in the Hideout
A figure could be seen standing on top of a tall tree. He was looking at the enormous structure before him.
It was not a big structure, but could not fool his eyes. He could sense multiple presences below the ground.
He was sure there was an underground hideout there. This was not something new for him. He himself owned a hideout like this one.
His eyes then shifted toward the many figures guarding this place. They were hiding in the trees.
Their camouflage and stealth could not hide the eyes of an expert like him. He was still waiting for the chance to enter.
The hideout was hidden behind the trees and vines. Its door was not easy to open.
However, this was nothing for him. He was merely testing the water.
His shadow shook before it turned into a cloak with multiple purple runes around it. The runes started shining brightly as his figure disappeared.
He started approaching the entrance with his hand folded behind his back. This was like a stroll in the park for him.
Before the surveillance of countless bandits, he appeared before the giant door.
He used shadow sense and tried to look for traps after he had found them and their trigger.
With his right hand first, he slowly entered the door.
He appeared inside it. He saw that there were more guards there. They were guarding the stairs that went underground.
Rishi ignored it, and the runes in his cloak started shining. He used the ‘Passing Through Matter’ technique, and his body started passing through the floor.
He appeared in the basement. There, he saw that it was filled with countless guards.
Without wasting time, he used ‘Shadow Sense’ to try to scan the area around him.
He started moving around; he saw multiple rooms and chambers.
Instead of being impatient, he decided to take it slow. He is not trying to interfere with their actions until he knows everything.
He used ‘Shadow Bats’ to scout the whole place and try to search for the captives. This underground base was huge, and he needed to search continuously for some time before he was able to find them.
They were put behind bars; here, the bandits have created a prison in which they kept the captives. 𝑛𝑜𝓥𝑬𝑙𝑛𝓮xt.𝓬𝒐𝕞
As he looked toward that place, he saw that a wall separated the big prison into two parts; on one side were only males, and on the other were females.
From one look, he could see more women than men, and from their situation, he could guess what they might have faced.
He had also sensed the presence of some bandits with women; it was not hard to guess what their fate might have been.
Men were enslaved. He had seen them covered in chains, carrying goods and cleaning.
New captives were imprisoned and tamed, while the older ones already knew their roles.
After counting them, he finds out one thing: his initial plan of hiding all the captives before fighting was impossible.
He rubbed his chin, trying to think of a way. After thinking for a while, he decided to put a mark on all the captives, which would remind him of their identity.
After assessing the situation and ensuring everything was under control, he started moving around and putting Runic Marks on all the captives.
They will remind him that he doesn’t have to touch them, which will hopefully help him successfully control his bloodlust.
While doing that, he also planted a mark on the Bandit Leader’s body; there were extra points for bringing the Bandit Leader alive.
After he was done, he started searching for an escape route. He found that there was a wall separating the stairs near the prison.
If he could break it, then he would be able to create an escape route for them.
He calculated everything and started eliminating the guards around the prison. With his stealth and his precise attacks, they stood no chance.
After eliminating them, he used his aura to destroy the bars and cuffs of the captives. He put a ‘Silence’ spell on them and asked them to follow him.
He quickly led them out of the hideout through the shortcut by eliminating the opponents in silence.
Next, he came out of the entrance and used ‘Shadows Chains’ plus chakrams to eliminate all the guards at once.
“Go.” He asked all the captives to leave using the Beast Carts.
At this time, bandits also became aware of the attack and started gathering up.
A red glow appeared in Rishi’s eyes, and his killing intent started flowing out. He had killed multiple humans at once, and now he was losing control.
The moment the smell of blood appeared near his nostrils, a sudden urge appeared in his mind to kill more people.
As he entered, multiple bandits were moving here and there, trying to find the intruder; some were coming toward him.
He took out his swords, and a crazy smile appeared on his lips. His feet left the ground as black smoke came out of them.
Like a phantom, he moved unhindered from anything, eliminating all the bandits.
This time, he made full use of his concealment and ability to hide killing intent to continue successfully ambushing the bandits.
He was like a fearless lion in Rabbit Burrow; the more he killed, the more he lost control.
Then a captive appeared before him, and he looked at him with blood in his eyes.
When he noticed the rune, something struck inside him, and he moved away.
The captive sighed in relief, holding his heart.
‘Cut’
A cut appeared in the neck of one of the guards as his body fell.
The other bandit looked at him and pointed his weapon at that side, but he also felt a cold blade passing through his heart.
His mouth opened as he tried to scream, but no sound came out.
As his body was getting cold and his eyes were losing their light, he saw something he had never seen.
A figure passed through the wall and disappeared.
‘Ghost’ only one word came out of his mind before he lost his consciousness and went into eternal sleep.
Similar instances started taking place. The bandits were helpless against an attacker like that.
Like a hunter, he searched every room and every corner, leaving behind no one. Only the captives were the ones that lived to tell the tale after seeing him.
