The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 783

Tom had Aria stay in the villa while he took a look at what was going on.

Only after looking at the surroundings with his binoculars did he realize something was amiss. There should have been many guards near the villa, but all of them were gone now, which was really strange.

Just when Tom concluded that nothing was out of the ordinary and planned to go back inside, he noticed that a group of people was heading toward the building.

He held his breath and took a careful look at them through the binoculars, only to realize that all those men were from Skyarch Palace!

He put his thumb and index finger into his mouth and whistled loudly. This alerted Aria, who escorted Sherry into the basement immediately.

Tom was unarmed, but he did not have the time to retrieve his machete from inside the villa. He needed to stop those people from entering before doing anything else.

Jett and his mentees made up a group of five. Upon seeing Tom outside, a mentee named Chad Smith aimed a punch at his face immediately.

Tom was not dumb. He could never fight four people with only his fists, and that was why he would not counter his enemy directly.

Just as he stepped sideways, Chad's fist whooshed by Tom's ear. The powerful force made Tom's cheek muscles tremble.

Only at that moment did he realize that his enemy was quite powerful.

Noticing that he had failed to hit his enemy, Chad raised his leg and aimed a kick at Tom's lower body. Resignedly, Tom had no choice but to retaliate with a kick of his own. With that, they were facing off each other in a fight.

A powerful force exploded around them before they both took several steps back.

Tom felt his leg muscles go numb, but he could only pretend that everything was fine.

He was skilled with a machete, but he was without one at the moment. He was sure that he could not defeat these people while unarmed.

"Don't just stand there! Attack him!" Jett yelled, waving in the air.

Their goal was to capture Caspian's mother, so they did not want to waste much time on Tom.

The remaining three mentees charged toward Tom, who cursed, "Fuck! How unscrupulous! Weren't you guys going to fight me one-on-one?"

He should have taken his machete with him when he left the villa!

Just as Tom was about to dodge, Jett struck as well.

Tom felt helpless against a sneak attack from Jett, who was an innate grandmaster. His shin was still numb. It was almost impossible to dodge Jett's attack at this point.

With a dull thud, Jett's palm landed on Tom. It caused him to vomit blood as he was sent flying. Tom's head hit the ground as he collapsed onto the ground, and he went unconscious instantly.

Tom's skill in combat was greatly diminished when he was without his machete.

Jett did not bother with him at all. He entered the villa with his mentees in tow, only to realize that the living room was deserted. Despite that, he noticed that there was a half-eaten apple on the table.

"Search the house immediately. They must've hidden somewhere!" Jett ordered.

His mentees started to search the house immediately, going through room after room.
