Chapter Ninety-Eight: The End of the Betrayer
After the two made their decision, they immediately walked out of the street and soon found the militia just now.
The militia were all grown men, eleven in all, and they were all looking around vigilantly at the moment, holding bloodstained weapons and moving quickly.
"Hey, what do you think we're going to do?" One of them asked.
"What else can I do! They all broke in! We're done! Another militiaman said dejectedly.
"I said I couldn't believe them! Opening the North Gate will allow us to join them? The result? As soon as they came in, they cut indiscriminately and burned down the house! Those demons! ”
Another militiaman yelled angrily.
Erin and Saizeriya glanced at each other, then stopped and quietly hid.
They felt that something was wrong.
According to their original thinking, the barbarians were able to enter the town because the city gate was breached, but judging from the conversation of these militiamen, it was more like they opened the city gate themselves.
What the hell is going on?
"John and Joss were also killed by that group of barbarians, haha...... When we use it up and throw it away, what are we treated for? The dejected militiaman laughed dryly, his tone as if self-deprecating.
"Speaking of which, aren't your wife and children still in the rebel camp...... Could it be? A militiaman asked worriedly.
“…… Brad! As if sensing that the atmosphere of the whole team was getting worse and worse, the militiaman who looked like the leader hurriedly interrupted him, "It's only been a day!" Didn't we run away so desperately just to go back and see! ”
"yes, don't overthink it now." Several militiamen next to him also chimed in, "As long as there is no problem with the south gate, we still have a chance to escape!" ”
There was a whole city distance between the south and north gates, and it was common sense that even fast-moving cavalry would have to work a considerable amount of effort to get around the other end, and the militia were still locals who were very familiar with the road, so they felt that even on foot, they might not be slower than the barbarians.
"I almost understand what is going on...... Irene whispered to Saria.
"Me too." Saizeriya thought about what the militiamen had just said, and she had seven or eight points of knowledge about the situation.
If they understood correctly, the militia would not be able to be their teammates, nor would they be able to do anything.
It's better to say that it's not in the way.
Saizeriya sighed and shook her head slightly.
It's sad that the Knights have worked so hard to protect the townspeople, including this group, and yet that the result is indeed this one.
"Forget it, leave them alone, let's go, this neighborhood has been searched, let's go a little farther this time......"
Just as Saliya was about to call out to Erin that it was time to leave, there was a hurried sound of horses' hooves in her ears.
Then, a strong male voice rang out.
"Oh, do you think you can run away?"
"It's you......!"
In front of the militiamen, thirty strong men on horses and in leather armor appeared at some point.
The leader of the strong man was a middle-aged man in his forties with short bright blond hair, who looked at the group of militiamen with gray-green eyes, and his eyes were particularly penetrating.
"Athera...... Checkmate! The militia captain recognized the man as if he were looking at something incomprehensible.
"Long time no see, Captain Dark, it's a pity that you all have to die here, may your loyalty be blessed by God."
"Wait! Why are you still chasing us! We've all surrendered, what else do you want us to do!......? Also, why did you massacre the inhabitants of this town? It's not what we agreed, because you're ......! ”
"Because of us?" Ashera shrugged her shoulders and sneered, "What is the content of the agreement, to send all the Britons to God?" Or did it completely destroy the city of Yeovil? ”
"What are you talking about......" all the militiamen looked shocked.
"Lord Vonrisen likes to tamper with the content of the agreement the most, don't you know?" Ashera looked at the militia mockingly, "I accepted the commission without even knowing this, idiot. ”
“…… Well, what about my wife and children! ”
The man, who was still depressed just now, took a step forward with an excited expression: "What about my wife and children? What's wrong with them!? ”
"You're talking about hostages? I don't know...... Let's not mention the child, the woman is probably still alive, right? Based on my understanding of my subordinates, if the group of people under me didn't get bored, they would generally not kill women casually. Ashera touched her chin, "If you're all dead, you're unlucky and stupid, and that's probably the only answer I can give you." ”
"You, you, you devil ......!" The militiaman's eyes were red and his whole body trembled with anger, and he raised his sword and slashed at Athera.
The militiamen next to him tried to hold him back, but they pounced.
With a smile, Arthura watched as the militiaman, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, attacked and drew the knight's sword from its scabbard. ,
"Yes, it would be too boring if you couldn't even resist." Athera's eyes reflected the militia's attacking stance, and then he quickly used his left hand to clasp the other man's sword before swinging his sword, and with his right hand he sent the knight's sword into the militiaman's chest.
The militiaman watched in astonishment as a spring of blood gushed out of his chest, and his body went limp, and he fell to the ground.
Arthura drew his sword sharply, flicked the blood, and looked around at the pale-faced militiamen.
"Who else is going to go on?"
"Damn!"
The militiamen gritted their teeth and glanced at the cavalry around them, their eyes flashing with anger, not only because their family members had been killed, but also because they knew that they were in danger, and they had some courage. After all, if he didn't resist, they would lose their only chance to live!
"You scumbags! Fight with you! ”
Excluding the one who had just died, the number of militia was ten. They formed an external circle, armed with rudimentary weapons and about to attack.
At this time, three wind pressures condensed into a wind blade and flew towards the cavalry behind Athera, knocking out the two of them.
Immediately afterwards, some of the cavalry mounts roared inexplicably, throwing the riders to the ground and even trying to bite their masters.
Athera frowned, and immediately took out her crossbow arrows and shot the deranged mounts one by one, then looked at the place where the wind blade came out and shouted loudly.
"What people! Come out! ”
No response.
Arthura shattered and concentrated her mana on the arrow, aiming for the wall in the corner not far away.
He is an early third-order magic archer who can concentrate his mana on arrows for powerful attacks.
He pulled the trigger, and the blue arrow cut through the air, knocking a large hole through the wall.
"Ahh A small exclamation was heard, and the two girls ran out of the shelter in a panic.
