Chapter 180 Horde Settlement

Although the humans didn't understand how the hordes could speak and understand the human language. Nevertheless, it was quite useful in this case.

After getting stabbed a couple of times, the horde succumbed and led the group in the endless dunes.

In the underground, a group of hordes laughed, drinking a red liquid with satisfaction. Their hoarse voices echoed loudly with their continuous laughter reverberating in the underground building.

"What do you think about the humans that enter our territory?" A hoed asked, tearing a part of the meat and eating wildly.

"What do you expect? Since they dare enter our domain. They should be prepared to turn into our slaves and their use in our wines." Another voice responded with a shriek of laughter.

Hm!

A groan came from another part of the underground house and a human appeared with no clothes chained with marks of whip around her body. The woman's eyes were lifeless as she carried the tray toward the hordes.

When they saw the woman, the hordes looked at her with disdain and continued to eat their meat and wines with relish.

"Move quickly. Don't disturb our gathering with your filthy body." One of the hordes said in annoyance in human language and sent a powerful slab toward the woman.

Bang!

The woman was sent flying, hitting the wall, and blood splashed from her mouth. She grimaced in pain and quivered on the ground. As one of the rules in the horde village, humans must not make a sound when they are being corrected by the hordes.

"Do you need another slap or what?"

Hearing this, the woman quickly stood with a trembling leg, one of her faces swollen and blocking her vision. Thus, she only uses one eye. She picked up the tray and bowed to the hordes before she dragged her body out of their presence.

Unknown to the hordes, a group of humans saw everything with their faces reddened as they wanted to pounce on the hordes but they managed to control their impulses and retreated quietly.

On the surface, Nika and the others waited quietly as they looked in a particular direction. A stone pillar covered by sand stood beside huge dunes. The stone pillar was the key to the secret tunnel leading to the hordes' underground village.

Suddenly, the dune trembled and a tunnel appeared in the middle at the center of the dune. Three people step out of the tunnel and walk with a large stride toward Nika and the others.

"How was it?" Nika asked quickly as the time they wasted was their loss.

"It's true." Addison nodded with her eyes reddened.

"What happened to her?" Jackson asked when she saw her reddened eyes.

"Nothing."Robert shrugged. "She saw a woman and became like this."

Hearing this, Jackson breathed a sigh of relief and held her sister's hand. He knew her sister had a caring heart and must have seen some gruesome scene for her to behave like that.

"We don't know how big the underground building was but we saw five hordes guarding the entrance," Robbert reported.

"What's their grade?"

"First grade and a single second grade"

'',

Nika looked at Pipe man's face and saw the carefree smile on his face. Seeing this, Nika's courage grew and he made a bold decision.

"We attack the underground settlement." He announced.

Hearing this, a bright smile appeared on their faces while the hordes looked at the faces of the humans like they were crazy. Although he was stunned by their bold decision. He was happy for their reckless behavior as he couldn't for them to be captured and he vent the anger in his heart.

Pu!

Still in his fantasy, a sharp metal spear pierced the chest of the horde and came out on the other side. Fresh blood sprouted from his mouth and chest as he fell on his knees, looking at the carefree smile on Pipe man's face.

'What an asshole' That was his last thought before he rolled down from the dunes.

"Let's go" Nika commanded.

At once, the group rushed into the hidden tunnel without thinking twice. The tunnel was huge and filled with a disgusting smell. Those entering for the first time had to cover their nose and move with a large stride as they couldn't bear the nauseating smell.

After walking for a couple of minutes, the group arrived deeper into the underground where the sand was falling and splashing like water.

Outside the falling sands were the group of hordes drinking wines and eating meat with humorous laughter filling the spacious room.

Whoosh!

A metal spear whistled through the air as it sliced it forward at unimaginable speed. The hordes were still feasting on the means and wines when one of them sprouted blood from his mouth and a hole appeared on his neck.

What!

The hordes were stunned for a couple of seconds as they couldn't understand how their fellow men would be attacked.

Whoosh! Whoosh! '

Before they realized what was happening. The mean and wine gouge in their hand fell to the ground with blood sprouting from their mouth. They looked at the entrance as their head hit the ground, life drifting out of their body.

'How did the humans discover their hidden spot?' That was the last thought on second-grade hordes before everything turned blank. Dead.

"That was easy." Pipe man said as he took his metal spear still hovering in the air.

Nika looked at the proud smile on Pipe man's face and shook his head.

"Be careful everyone." With that, Nika proceeds toward the only exit in the room.

On the other side of the room were many cages filled with humans. Their gazes were lifeless and hapless as they sat in the metal cage. Fresh blood came out of the mouth and body from some while some were left with bony bodies. They could barely open their eyes.

When the prisoner saw the new arrival, fear appeared on their faces as they retreated quickly to the end of the cage. When they saw they were humans, the fear in their eyes never lessened but deepened.

Seeing this, a slight frown appeared on Nika's and the others' faces as they couldn't imagine what kind of experience they must have had that would produce such fear.

Creak!

Suddenly, many huge steps came from the end of the prison and the atmosphere was still as everyone held their breath, including the prisoners.

'',

'If we lose the element of surprise the mission would become harder...'

"Move," Nika whispered in an urgent voice.

Bang!

Before the group could reach the exit, the door was slammed open and many hordes entered. Immediately, they halted their track and looked at the group in front of them. While the other looked at them with an equally stunned expression.

"Human. You dare come to our settlement. You must have a death wish." The leader of the horde said with disdain written all over his face.

Puh!

Before the two groups could process what was happening. The leader of the hordes fell on the group while holding his neck.

"You talk too much." Pipe man muttered in contempt.

"Attack!" A howl came from the hordes as they rushed toward the human with their huge weapon.

If the hordes had taken a moment to process what just happened, they wouldn't have thrown their life into the chopping board. Unfortunately, they were hordes, and hordes only reason with their fist.

Before Nika and others could join the battle, many hordes were already on the ground with holes appearing on the chest and neck. While the remaining few were trembling.

"Run!"

"As if you can?"

Thud!

Although the battle was quick and smooth, the last scream from the hordes gardener the other hordes inside the settlement. Thus, they rush toward the battle scene.

"Our presence has been discovered. Let's welcome them with open arms." Nika said as he rushed out of the room.

A blinding light accosted the group as they came out of the underground room. They halted their track and looked at their surroundings with their eyes widened.

The settlement consists of small houses built of mud and other materials. While most buildings were built like underground houses. At the boundary of the horde settlement were powerful sandstorms howling loudly.

The powerful sandstorms surrounded the settlement, making it at the center of the sandstorms. Now, they realized why no one could detect their hideout.

Huh!

"Watch out," Addison screamed.

Under Addison's scream, the group saw many huge weapons thrown at them. At once, the group evades the attack skilfully.

Hundreds of hordes came out of their house and rushed toward the human with veins protruding on their foreheads. How dare humans attack them.

"Formation! Attack!" Nika shouted.

At once, they formed a battle formation and rushed forward against the incoming hordes as a golden circle appeared on their heads. The golden circle illuminated them while the marks on their forehead shone brightly, giving them a special aura.

Boom!

The two sides attacked at the same time, followed by a deafening sound.
