Chapter 485: Resigned to fate

"Quick! Hurry up! ”

At the same moment, Senna and Viscount Anru were desperately kicking their horses' bellies with pale faces, and were running out of the forest.

Their team was dragged sparsely due to the obstruction of trees, and they were not in formation at all, but at this time, no one cared about the so-called "honor guard", because there were more than twenty wolf cavalry behind them chasing frantically!

Although they were careful not to make any movement along the way, the orc's search net was too big, and when a wolf cavalry team spotted them, they immediately began to chase after them without saying a word...

Although Senna boasted that he had killed a bunch of orcs, did he really dare to fight the orcs face-to-face? Seeing this scene, he immediately shouted "retreat" and turned his horse's head, so that the private army immediately collapsed without a fight. And Viscount Anru didn't know how to fight at all, so he could only grit his teeth and flee with him at this time, but their equestrian skills were generally not good, and they were already desperate in their hearts when they saw the private soldiers who were left behind being chased and hacked to death by the orcs one by one...

If this continues, no one will be able to escape death.

But at this moment, the sound of the horn suddenly came from a distance, and the next moment, the orc wolf cavalry following behind immediately gave up on them, turned around and rushed towards the place where the horn sounded.

"What's going on..."

Viscount Anru, who was gasping for breath, couldn't help but look back, and it took three or four seconds before he finally confirmed that he was out of danger. But as soon as the horse's speed had dropped, Senna next to him whipped his horse's buttocks with a whip.

"Smack!"

The rushing horse almost threw Anjou to the ground, and he looked over for some reason, but saw Senna roaring, "You think this is the end!?" Let's go! Hurry back to the city! It's safe to go back to the city! ”

Anru was not a fool, and immediately followed Senna, who had never stopped, and the two of them quickly rushed out of the forest with a sparse team, and went around a path to Pacaro City - and looking back at the hellish forest behind him, Viscount Anru wanted to ask "what about the others", but seeing Senna's appearance of not looking back at all, the words were finally swallowed back into his stomach.

For those nobles who used to drink and talk, Anjou didn't think about "sharing weal and evil" at this moment - only his own life was really useful, and everything else was nonsense!

Leave it to fate, I can't save you anyway.

Viscount Anru thought.

And in the forest, Catherine's spirit of "resignation" is on the verge of collapse.

Hiding in a tree hole does not mean that everything is fine, because the "hunting area" is so large, more than 600 orc wolf cavalry are scattered, and they can quickly search this area, which also causes many times the wolf cavalry patrol areas to overlap - for Catherine, this "overlap" causes her to always hear the footsteps of a wolf passing back and forth not far away, and even hear the happy cheers of the orcs...

These sounds were far and near, so that Catherine did not dare to breathe, she was bitten by various mosquitoes countless times in dozens of minutes, but she was usually pampered, but she gritted her teeth and survived - desperate situations can make people collapse, but they can also make people strong.

But Catherine thinks... His own "strength" came too late.

The five private soldiers who accompanied him had already scattered in the previous battle, and it is not known how many of them survived. Catherine was so confused that she didn't know what to think about, and after a long time, the sound of Suo's footsteps held her breath again.

A team of about ten wolf cavalry stopped ten meters in front of her and began to rest.

Catherine's heart hung in her throat, and she shrank her body as far as possible into the not-so-deep tree hole, trying to cover her body, but a wolf with a keen sense of smell suddenly turned its head to look at her, and then took a step closer...

The huge wolf head was intimidating, and the continuous dripping saliva and low roar made Catherine's face turn pale in an instant-the wolf cavalry next to him noticed the abnormality and immediately came to check it, without any surprise... Catherine was seen clearly by the other party.

The tall orcs were startled at first, then reached out and grabbed Catherine out of the hollow of the tree—and when they saw her bumpy figure, the eyes of the orcs around them lit up, and they immediately screamed and gathered around.

What happened next was already predictable, and Catherine's heart was so dead that she closed her eyes in despair. She was violently pressed to the ground, but while the group of orcs were arguing over who would "enjoy" first, Catherine, whose ears were forced to touch the ground, suddenly heard a dull sound of horses' hooves.

The next moment, she saw the orcs immediately turn over and jump onto the wolf, screaming loudly and rushing into the distance. And after the sound of fighting, the two wolf cavalry ran past Catherine in horror...

"This is..."

Catherine stood up from the pain of the fall and walked forward a few dozen meters. When she finally saw the group of soldiers in light armor and slashing orcs with swords, the aristocratic girl who had survived the catastrophe finally couldn't help crying and sat down on the ground.

When all the tension is relaxed, the body seems to lose its strength. She sat on the ground and watched as the soldiers in front of her methodically approached the battlefield - they executed wolves and wounded orcs, quickly assembled at random, and sent scout teams in all directions.

When Catherine's presence was discovered, someone immediately came and helped her into the group, and the words "still alive", "not injured", "no need for treatment", "no need for medicine" could be heard, and in a short time someone shoved a water bag into her hand.

Catherine stiffened and pulled the plug, the cold water making her sober in an instant. Looking around, she realized that there were many "acquaintances"-

"Baron Coriman? Baron Nelton? ”

The other party's state was similar to Catherine's, they were all covered in dust and mess, and when they heard someone shouting their names, they turned around, first surprised, and then sighed: "Catherine? You're in luck... OK... Better than your father. ”

This sentence immediately made Catherine freeze in place.

"How... My father, he-"

"Killed by the wolf cavalry, not only him, but most of them were... If it weren't for this team to save us, I'm afraid everyone would have died at the hands of this bunch of guys..."

Catherine had already experienced several ups and downs in her life in just one hour, and she felt uncomfortable in her chest, but at this time, she didn't care about sadness, but after trying to breathe a few times, she asked out loud: "So what do we do now?" What's going on? Do you want to follow the group? ”

"I don't know, Duke Sally told us not to get in the way, she said... Just leave the rest to the soldiers. ”

"Duke Sally?"

Catherine looked back at the array of troops in front of her—and she soon saw the Duke in white, staff in hand.

After hearing of her father's death, Catherine has become the only person in charge of Lord Burton, so she secretly made up her mind: even if the family was against this duke before, from now on, she will completely reverse it!

But soon Catherine discovers... Duke Sally, it seems, is not the leader of this team to call the shots.
