Chapter 1340 – Escape From The Palace

Don't look down, don't look down…

Boom!

The crackling sounds caused Paula to freeze and tremble, holding onto the rope 3 or so stories high.

Heavens, why didn't she realize that the second floor was so high up?

She didn't think she was afraid of heights, for it was foolishly forbidden in this era to be. After all, the many tall estate buildings were either cleaned by the poor or visited by the wealthy. The temples, city walls, towering landscapes, cliff side's and many other aspects allowed everyone, whether poor or rich, to get used to high levels. Even travelling on a ship and overlooking the waves below exposed one to great heights.

These were troubling times, with people having more serious things to worry about than fear of heights.

However, all this said, now that she had gotten off the tall building, suspended mid-air amidst the thunderous turmoil, how could she not be fearful?

Her biggest worry was not just about the height but feeling that the heavens would soon throw its wrath at them mid-air. In that case, how would she be able to run?

Boom!

Paula turned her eyes away from the scene, repeating Landon's words in her mind.

'Don't look down, don't look around, just focus on the wall before her.'

With the will to see her granddaughter once more, Paula gritted her teeth and continued.

Landon sighed in relief, seeing that she had finally found her courage.

Time wasn't on their side. Soon, those above would run out of ammo, so they had to flee as scheduled.

.

Bam!

Their legs touched the ground, and the gang all ran as though fleeing from their lives.

In this manner of chaos, many were like them, running around as well, not wanting to be sitting ducks for target practice.

Boom!

The grounds rumbled, rising several feet high in the air with every explosive attack.

The mushroom clouds of orange and black smoke could be spotted around the palace popping up in various locations.

Several body parts flew out in several directions, smacking the surviving enemy in the face.

Pac!

Blood…

The roads were bloody and foul stanched.

The many screams and wails sounded like a thousand chickens throttled by the throat.

Everywhere one looked, there was turmoil and unrest.

It was just like a blockbuster movie.

And Paula, who saw this, was mortified by how much she had underestimated the power of the heavens.

~Swish!

Right before them, 2 bodies flew past them, smacking into a building not too far away from them.

Paula's pupils dilated at an alarming speed.

This… This…

They were still in the inner part of the palace. So, would they truly be able to make it out?

Landon looked at Paula and borrowed his brows. "Get on." She was limping.

"No… No… It's okay." Paula rejected.

How can he possibly have the strength to run with her on his back through the long-distance? Besides, though she was older, there should be some distance between men and women. So how could she, a married man, be comfortable with someone piggybacking her?

Landon looked at her, almost rolling his eyes and disbelief.

'You still care about this now?'

In just a single move, Landon grabbed her and flung her onto his back as though holding a kitten.

"_"

Paula was dumbfounded.

Who was she! Where was she?

Are men today this strong?

Those around Landon chuckled in amusement after seeing Paula's shock.

Heh… Soon she will come to understand his majesty's full might.

To them, despite his age, his Majesty Landon was the strongest man in the world!

.

Like so, team Landon made their way back to the wall.

That's right.

They were going to flee the same way they came… Via the wall at the mid-slave quarters.

By now, because of the trouble in the palace, many nobles and guards stationed out of the palace would inevitably make their way to the palace to aid or find out about the situation.

So there should be a crowd there either now or later.

That said, if they stepped out of the palace via the front, they would get investigated about what they saw, how things were going, and what palace division they worked or reported to.

Many would want to know if his majesty Alexander was safe. Additionally, they might start finding rescue teams to head in and look for Alexander. The loyalists would use this opportunity to show how much they valued Alexander. And many other nobles would join in to make a name for themselves and gain Alexander's gratitude once the whole ordeal ended.

Leaving through the front door would only get them into more trouble and might even reveal their identities… Especially if a person could make out the disguises of Tilda and Paula.

Too dangerous!

They couldn't afford to dilly dally with these people.

Again, even from the reports they had been getting after reaching Paula, they confirmed that fleeing via the slave/peasant zone was the safest.

The slaves were even more frightful, staying indoors and locking the windows too.

They didn't want the attacks to pass through.

Again, to frighten them indoors, those above had targeted specific regions, ensuring that no one got hurt.

As for the very few guards in this region, the ground team had strategically driven them out of the slave quarters all this time.

And if anyone tried to go their way, they would do the same thing again, diverting the enemy's attention.

.

Team Landon was 'en route' to the point of exit. However, Tilda's group had just arrived.

Tilda was on Josh's back, thanking her gods for making it this far.

Lying trough. Do you know how many scary scenes they met? They had lunged, ducked, jumped side to side and moved in circles to get here.

And not long after, her entire body was sore. Her tiny body couldn't keep up to their running pace. Thus, this man who called himself Josh carried her.

But now that they were finally here, her heart was still restless.

"… Sir Josh…. Where is my nana?"
