Chapter 05: Slaughtering Mercenaries
Twenty-five miles west of Kannas City, a small hillside not high.
There were several very tall large-leaf banyan trees growing on the top of the slope, and Arthur and his men were lying or sitting under the tree. This was the meeting place they agreed to before entering the city. After Huey escaped, he would come here to meet everyone.
Arthur sat cross-legged under the tree to practice fighting spirit. Toren rubbed his crescent axe blade and Qiong fell asleep on the mat. Lingyu and Ellanni were talking in a low voice, while the Ten Princess walked around among the trees with anxiety on her face.
Seeing Qiong sleeping so hard that she felt angry, the Tenth Princess kicked Qiong hard on the butt.
Joan jumped up instantly, "Have the enemy been fighting?"
"Huee has been out of news for a day and a night. Can you still sleep so peacefully?"
Joan looked at Princess Ten and retorted: "Huey is not my man, can't I sleep if he doesn't come back?"
"You, you are shameless, isn't Huey your friend? Are you not worried?"
"I'm not worried, are you worried about him?" Qiong deliberately teased Princess Ten.
"Okay, don't care about him, I'll go find him." Princess Ten was so angry that she stomped her feet and turned around and was about to leave.
"Back." Arthur opened his eyes, "We are not worried that we believe Huey should be able to get rid of his opponent. If he doesn't come back before sunset, I will go to the city to find out the news."
Shortly after Arthur's words finished, a figure flew rapidly from a distance, and it was Huey.
When Huey landed, the Ten Princess was about to pounce on him, but found that Huey was still holding a person under his armpit. He touched Princess Ten's face until he was still on the ground, "I worry you."
Everyone was surprised that the orc could say such considerate words, especially when Joan opened her mouth in shock, "When did you two officially hook up?"
"Who is this?" Arthur was not as gossipy as Joan, so he went straight to the point.
"The mercenaries of the Tu Ling Mercenary Group, the one who ambushed us yesterday was the Tu Ling Mercenary Group."
Arthur frowned, "I don't remember what holiday we had with the Tu Ling Mercenary Group. Did he attack us yesterday? How did you catch it?"
"I got rid of my opponent yesterday and sneaked back to the city. This incident has become known to everyone in the city. The Tu Ling Mercenary Group cannot hide it even if it wants to. The attackers did not have him, but he was also a small leader in the Mercenary Group. If I rob him, I should be able to find out some things."
Arthur and Huey are now considered experts in interrogation and can easily ask for something.
The person who organized this operation was Dansa, the deputy leader of the Tu Ling Mercenary Group. During the retreat of the regiment commander Jenirida, this Dansa was responsible for most of the mercenary group's affairs.
Arthur, who was questioned by the envoy behind the scenes, was still confused. Why did Dansa ambush himself is still a mystery.
"Are you deputy commander Dansa who is thin and has a long sword?" Huey suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated question.
After receiving a positive answer, Huey rarely smiled, "I think I know the reason, it seems that you are causing trouble."
Arthur was a little confused, "What did I cause trouble? I have never seen this Dansa before."
"You have seen it but don't know the other party's name. At Mirage Crater, we captured two Kildan's general warriors, and you robbed them all and released them again." Huey reminded.
Arthur reacted instantly, "You mean the man who uses the sword is this Dansa."
Huey nodded with a smile, "I felt like I had seen that man before on the battlefield."
Arthur couldn't help but curse. He ran away from others when he was looting others, but now he ran to other people's fields. Even if he was retaliated against, he would not be very cautious.
Arthur pretended to be generous and shook his hand, "Fortunately, we have no losses here. I will endure the losses this time. We will not go to Kannas City."
"If you endure it, others won't." Huey said expressionlessly.
"If the Tu Ling Mercenary Group becomes more and more demanding, they will have to pay a price."
"It's not the Ling-Tubing Mercenary Group, but King Kildan. When we escaped, we killed him, a general and hundreds of warriors, so the other party would not let us go. When I left the city, the city guards and the people from the Tingwei Office had already started searching from the outskirts of the city, and our place was no longer safe soon."
Arthur sighed softly, but he felt a little guilty in his heart. The ordinary soldiers who died at their hands were indeed a little innocent. They were used to fighting on the battlefield and began to indifference to their lives.
No matter how confident Arthur and the others were, they were not as strong as they compete with King Kildan. The best choice was to leave as soon as possible. The further away from Kannas City, the less trouble it was.
Arthur did not kill the captured prisoner, and quickly left after using a dark magic to put the other party into a deep sleep.
Arthur's dark magic is enough to let the other party sleep for a day. Even if he wakes up and reports, Arthur and the others will go away.
There are always too many accidents in the world. Arthur did not expect that this mercenary had a sachet of clear heart and calmness. Half an hour later, he woke up in advance, and Arthur and the others' troubles also followed...
......
Leon, the orc court thousands of miles away, also encountered big trouble.
The excitement of defeating the orc court was already over. The Lion King throne in the Beast King Hall was full of temptation only before he had him. Leon never sat down after sitting once on the day of attacking the palace. Because Leon, the new king, had a bit awkward position, Tugandra also became a hot potato.
Although Leon captured the orc court, he only obtained a remnant city. The Blue Ape and the Seaman race robbed the city and set fires, and countless buildings in the city were damaged.
In the city, some of the orc nobles were killed by Leon and Arthur's soldiers, and some escaped while the chaos was in the chaos. Some of the remaining nobles secretly paid allegiance to Leon, and many others regretted Leon, especially those nobles who were burned down and stolen property, whether they were stolen by the human race or the sea race, all the accounts were recorded on Leon.
Even the orc nobles and members of the Golden Lion family who secretly supported Leon, no one publicly stood up to support Leon's ascension. Because everyone is smart, Leon was captured by the orc royal court that used Elliot's loophole to fight outside and shamelessly combined with human cavalry. With their strength, they may not be able to defend it in the future. They are all worried that Elliot will be retaliated after he fights back.
Before Eliot's revenge came, Leon waited for Divola's ambition first. After Eliot's Tiansuo Pass was defeated, he had already retreated to the wolf lord in advance. After hearing that after Leon captured the Orcs' Court, he directly raised 200,000 elite wolf cavalry to attack Tugandra with great momentum. No tribe dared to stop him along the way.
At most three days, 200,000 wolf cavalry will be killed at the city of Tugandra. Relying on the city defense to fight the wolf master, or give up the orc royal court in advance?
