Chapter 241: Murderous Guard

readx;

"Damn rebel imp!" The short soldier who had been kicked in the lower body had already come to his senses, and he slashed Ah Ye's palm fiercely, not caring about Ah Tie who was killed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and when he was about to reach out and hit the second palm, a worn-out iron axe suddenly flew from behind him and smashed directly on his head! Blood and brains splattered out, and the short soldier died before he could figure out the situation.

"That mercenary is an accomplice of the rebels! kill this mercenary as well!" shouted the goose.

The color of the sky had completely darkened, and Ayana and Lukka walked the fastest, and the two of them walked to the edge of the cliff first, "Ayana, look over there!" Luka held the torch high, and by the light of the fire, Ayana could faintly see a person standing in a clearing on the edge of the cliff, but that height did not look like Field.

"It's a child!"

"Let's get over here!"

When Ayana was more than ten meters away from the child, she saw Fidel kneeling on the ground. Fed's back was to her, as if he didn't sense the person behind him. The boy standing next to Fid noticed Ayana and Luca, who first took a few steps away and then raised his sword in his hand, keeping an eye on Ayana and Luka.

"It's my men. Fidel's voice came, and Ayana breathed a sigh of relief.

"Commander, our men are hurryβ€”" Lukka walked quickly in front of Fidel, but when he saw the corpse in Fidd's arms, he swallowed back the second half of his sentence.

Feder looked into the distance with blank eyes, and he held the corpse of a girl on his knees and thighs, who had closed her eyes and stopped breathing, and had lost an arm. The girl had a fatal wound to her chest, and the blood spilling from her heart stained Fed's hands and her clothes crimson in a terrible way.

Lukka and Ayana also noticed a number of corpses not far in front of Fidel, about twenty soldiers, as well as the bodies of several children and a few rebels. The corpses fell to the ground, and Ayana and Lukka had guessed from the blood on Fidel's face that there had been a fierce battle here.

"Are you Captain Feid's subordinates?" the child who was still alive was Amu, unscathed.

"That's right, just... What just happened?" Lukka saw for the first time Captain Fed's expression, as if he was hating and hating something, but at the same time a little sad.

Amu threw his sword aside and sat down on the ground, "This girl's name is Aye, and she was stabbed by a soldier in order to protect Captain Fed..."

"Actually, that sword won't hurt me," Fid interrupted Amu, who gently placed Aye's body on the ground, "I killed these children, and if I'm decisive, then they'll survive." ”

Amu lowered his head, and some tears flowed from the eyes of the strong child, but no one heard him crying. Both Ayana and Lukka were silent, and they just watched in silence as Fidel took the torch from their hands and burned the girl's body on the spot. He also burned the bodies of several other children, just like Leonard, the cremation team leader.

By the time Patrick and Noor came down to the cliff with the rest of their men, the bodies that had been set on fire by Fid were almost burned, and Ayana and Lukka had looked around and found that the lakeside camp below the cliff had returned to calm, with only sporadic fires.

"Luca, let's take some of our men down to see how things are going!" Nur suggested, and Lukka immediately selected more than fifty of his men and began to set off for the lakeside camp below the cliff. Fett stood alone on the edge of the cliff, and Ayana whispered a few words to Patrick before walking over to Fett's side.

"That rebel kid named Amu, how are you going to place him?"

"If he wants to leave with us, I'll do everything I can to protect him, because I took them out of the rebel camp, so I'll be responsible for them." ”

Ayana was silent for a long time before she said, "You have a lot of things to be responsible for..."Ayana thought of herself that Russell had entrusted to Fed, and the unfinished revenge, and the potato mercenary group, and...

"But I couldn't do it!!" Feder roared in front of Ayana for the first time! he fell to his knees and slammed his fist into the ground, venting his anger!

Patrick, who was standing not far away and was still comforting Amu, also walked over, and it was the first time he had seen Feyder's emotions so excited. The roar at the sky just now seemed to contain a lot of unwillingness and pain, and there was self-blame that everyone could see.

Neither Ayana nor Patrick dared to speak, and Feder said slowly after stopping to catch his breath, "I've always hated responsibility, and I hated the promise that shouldn't have been made by me... That's because I'm afraid that I'm not good enough, and in the end, I will only see the other person's disappointed face, and endless self-blame!"

"I sometimes feel guilty about how I do in the arena, but that's a normal thing and you can't do everything perfectly. ”

"It's not an excuse for me to accept myself, because of my hesitation and hesitation, those innocent children died at the hands of bloodthirsty soldiers, and it's all my fault..."

Fett hung his head, he was already whispering the word "wrong" when he said it, but Patrick and Ayana could still hear the remorse in it. The two looked at each other for a moment, and neither of them knew how to take Field's words, because everyone had always thought that Fielder was a person who was cold on the outside and on the inside. Field, who had killed countless people on the battlefield, would blame himself so much because of a few imps of the rebel army, and he blamed himself so much that he lost his mind. They had never seen such a Fidel before, and Ayana began to think that it was the time spent with the rebels that had changed Fidel.

Until the first mercenary returned from the bottom of the cliff, the three people on the edge of the cliff did not say a word. The mercenary reported to Patrick that the rebel camp by the lake was no longer visible of the regular army and Viscount Jados, and that the rebels were gone, and that most of the rebels who remained in the camp were seriously wounded. They also found that the openings to the underground base were blocked, and those holes seemed to have mechanisms set up from the inside, which could be completely blocked. Lukka also found firewood at the entrances of some caves, and it seems that the soldiers led by Viscount Jados had thought of using smoke to force the rebels out of the underground base.

"There are many corpses of the rebels in front of the cave entrance, and the same is true by the lake, and they don't seem to have managed to hide in the underground caverns of this mountain. The mercenary reported.

Fidel returned to his normal appearance when Lukka and Noor returned, handing over command to Patrick and Lukka, while he walked at the back of the line without saying a word. Ayana kept following Fed, and Feder didn't even give a second glance at the "silence" that Ayana was carrying.

After three days of marching, Fidel returned safely to Fonta. After letting people take care of Amu, he went into his camp tent, and even the other captains and Meifu refused to see him.

"Captain Fed, Moose wants to meet with you. Patrick's voice came from outside Feid's tent.

"Who is Moose?"

"It's the rebel kid Amu, his name is Moos, but his companions affectionately call him Amu. ”

"Let him in. ”

Moose, who had cut his flat head, put on the white clothes that Maeve had given him, and looked different from the dirty kid he had been a few days earlier. In addition to Moose, Patrick was also asked by the other captains to enter Field's tent to check on their captain's situation - during the two days back in Fonta, even Ayana was not allowed to enter Field's tent, and she had to leave her food at the door of the tent.

As soon as Patrick stepped into the tent, he smelled a sour smell, and Field, who was sitting on the ground, did not take off his black armor and did not take a bath, and his long greasy black hair and sparse beard looked even more decadent and haggard.

"Captainβ€”" Patrick noticed the dark circles under Field's eyes, and Field's eyelids drooped, as if he hadn't slept well for three days and three nights.

"Amu, your name is Moose, isn't it?" Fed looked into Moose's eyes, he hadn't been drinking, but he looked even less sober than a hangover.

"That's right, Captain Feide, I'm Amu. ”

"How old are you?"

"Nine!"

"What are your plans? If you want to return to the Rebel Formation, then I'll have someone escort you back to your designated Rebel Base Place, if..."

"I want to stay with Captain Fidd!" Moose looked firm, he clenched his fists tightly, "I want to avenge Ah Tie and Ah Ye!"

Feder sighed softly, "Hatred is just a poison, and we are a mercenary group, not an orphanage, and your conditions are not enough to become a mercenary." ”

"Then I'll throw away my hatred, just let me stay with Captain Fed, and let me repay you for saving your life!"

Patrick interjected on the side: "This kid Moose already knows about the infighting of the new faction of the rebels, he has no parents, and he doesn't want to go back to be a rebel, if you agree, I'll let him stay with Reeves, or stay with Toto to do things." ”

Fett thought for a moment and said, "Moos, your path should be up to you, although you are only nine years old, if you want to stay in the Potato Mercenary Regiment as a mercenary..."

"I'm not going to be an ordinary mercenary! I'm going to be a mercenary who can protect civilians!"

Fei De was stunned, "The regular army is the one who guards the civilians, and the mercenaries are not." ”

"It's the regular army that kills Ah Ye and them, and it's you, Captain Feide, who are guarding us!"

Moose's words froze Fett, and Field, who was speechless, had to tilt his head slightly sideways to avoid Moos's determined gaze.

"Captain Feder is no ordinary mercenary, and the Potato Mercenary Regiment is certainly not an ordinary mercenary group!Because no mercenary would raise a sword against the regular army in order to protect a few rebel imps!" Mousse shouted loudly, and even the captains who were eavesdropping outside could hear it clearly. Jasmine, who hadn't left Tower City, had already learned what had happened at the lakeside camp, and they were all amazed at what Feder had done on the edge of the cliff.

Feder held up a hand to cover his face, "I'm going to have Patrick, Jasmine, or Selena be the leaders of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, so it's up to them to decide if you can stay here or not." ”
