After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1458

Chapter 1458: The Forces Hunting Golds

Meanwhile, Sean and Turbo’s team went to the next agenda of their investigations: Find out more about that threat that was apparently coming towards the Golds, which meant that it—possibly—was heading to Alterra.

So there were two main families they had to worry about, both of whom were from noble families in Bleulle!

Thanks to the system’s many rules and regulations, they didn’t really worry about these two families being able to do anything too big to Alterra; However, they could definitely spell a lot of trouble and even cause deaths, especially outside of the territory lines.

Sean and the others were too weak to do anything directly for now, and if caught, they could make things even worse for Alterra. But they could at least gather as much information as they could, and this was their main task as of now.

They found out that the Sephon Family sent many late level 30 fighters, including someone from the main family. Meanwhile, the Visto family was working even harder. They even sent their associated Mercenary Team, which was a Class C Mercenary Team with average levels of 32!

This was not a few in numbers and might be even more than the level 30s they dealt with during the previous war. The problem was that many of their people travelling were unaware and could therefore be susceptible to attacks.

The more they found out, the more nervous they got. They sent as much information to Alterra (in code, of course) so they could prepare. At the very least, they would warn against traveling too far from the territory within the next couple of weeks.

It was around this time that he received an alert from his aether letter. He blinked.

"Sir Gregory finally replied..." Turbo whispered, taking out the letter to read the contents.

’I’ll put a few things in their carriages’ it said, but it just confused the rest of them.

"Whose?"

"..."

Anyway, putting that thought aside, the team separated to follow the families heading out to get a rough idea about their final numbers.

However, rather than just the numbers, they found out that the enemies were heading in three different directions.

One mixed group headed towards the West and another headed to the South.

But...Alterra was a long way Northeast...

While there was indeed a team going Northeast, it was actually the smallest group.

"...huh?" They were so confused. "What’s going on?"

"Are they lost?"

"Maybe they have to make stopovers somewhere?"

"Does that make any sense?"

"What’s your explanation then?!"

Anyway, this meant that these people were free to do whatever they wanted, say whatever they wanted, and pass on information to the outside. However, thanks to the other rumors already spread out, the priority to look into Alterra was greatly discounted.

After all, why would a family like the Golds choose a Town instead of a City? Pride aside, practically speaking, if they truly wanted to be safe from their enemies, they’d choose a city—right?!

The Lord and the search parties did choose a few weaker people to check it out, just in case. In principle, when it came to finding out what happened to their grandfathers, no stones could be left unturned.

Anyway, those who went to the other cities would be gone for a while.

As for the only team who actually got it right... well, they were actually up for more misfortune.

It so happened that Eveco was one of the people and, just a couple of hours after they left, they were already surrounded by deadly mobs.

"What! Why are there so many mobs!"

They applied the best beast-repelling potions they could buy, so there should be fewer mobs at this time. So why were there so many!!

They looked up at the mobs, and then the handful of strong monsters—as big as 5 meters—scattered around them.

Their hearts dropped.

What the heck was going on?!
