Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground novel Chapter 638

Chapter 638 Entering

Hours had passed since Atticus entered this new world, and he stood with a cold gaze atop a hill, staring down at the village below.

'What's my next course of action?'

During these hours, Atticus had been extracting information from the man he had captured earlier. It went without saying that it had been a valuable session, but at the same time, it had left Atticus feeling unsatisfied in the end.

The first question Atticus had asked was where he was.

The Abyssal Chasm felt like a world separate from the human domain, but this space felt the same. It felt like a world distinct from the Abyssal Chasm.

Atticus doubted the Obsidian Order had someone who could create worlds, and this fact was confirmed as the man explained.

They were currently inside an artifact, one that even paragons couldn't detect. It was a powerful artifact that enabled a world with its own ecosystem to be built within it.

Atticus went ahead and asked other questions about the situation. Although he was already certain, he confirmed that they were indeed the Obsidian Order and that it was this group that had attacked the Raven camp.

Atticus maintained a cool head when he found that out and continued asking his questions. What had they been up to for the past five years? What was the status of the village, like who was the most powerful and their numbers? What were their scouting capabilities and the ways to enter the village?

For the first question, the man had insisted that it was nothing, something Atticus found hard to believe.

They had been hiding in the Abyssal Chasm for years now and hadn't attacked or done anything in the human domain. He had also claimed that he had no idea of their next plans, an answer that made Atticus inflict a world of pain on him. But eventually, he had to move past that.

The answer to the next question had left Atticus feeling a bit skeptical about entering the village. Just as he had expected, the leaders of the Obsidian Order in Sector 3 and Sector 4 were present, and both of them were at the grandmaster+ rank—a level Atticus doubted he could bridge as he currently was.

The number of people in the village numbered in the thousands, a stark contrast to their numbers before the war with the Ravensteins. They hadn't slacked off when it came to recruiting more people into their ranks.

There were far too many people unsatisfied with the way the tiered families ruled, so this much was expected, considering the utmost secrecy.

The next question had been about their scouting capabilities and ways to enter the village. Afterwards, Atticus asked the question he had been wanting to ask since he saw the trio: which family was supporting them from the outside…

This had been what left Atticus feeling dissatisfied because as soon as he asked that question, Atticus saw the man's gaze narrow and an insane amount of mana start gathering around his mana core.

Atticus had reacted instantly, focusing on the ice element and freezing the man. Afterwards, he had immediately killed him off. He was useless at that point. If Atticus unfroze him, aside from the nerve damage, he was due to explode.

As Atticus stared at the village, he replayed everything he knew about it.

'They're divided into three main forces: the scouts, the hunters, and the main fighting force,'

Although they numbered a thousand in the village, Atticus was only focused on the people who were at least master- rank. The others were only cannon fodder. Each of the forces he mentioned now had the most concentration of master ranks and basically their fighting force.
