Chapter 199: Escape
"What? What are you all looking at to eat, you can't even look at a mercenary, and you will let him run away?" Twenty minutes later, Helga looked at several of his subordinates in front of him with an angry face, and asked these people to follow Seamus and wait for him to leave Santa Ansta before making a move, but he didn't expect these idiots to even look at a person, so he ran away under his nose.

"Captain, let's follow him, and wait until he is out of Santa Ansta, as you commanded, before we get ready to go. However, unexpectedly, when he arrived at the gate of the city, a horse was suddenly frightened and galloped wildly. At that time, the people at the gate of the city were panicked and ran in all directions. When we chased after him, there was no longer him. Among the several people, the team leader said in a snort, raised his eyes to look at Helga's face, and quickly lowered his head, obviously, this mistake is definitely not a simple few words that can be explained.
"And what about the city gate guards, you didn't ask, did anyone see him running away?" Helga's face became even more gloomy. A small commotion can make your subordinates lose people. It seems that so many years of affluent life have made them lose all their skills.
"We went. It's just, it's just...."The squad leader's words said this, and he began to sputter, obviously, what the consequences would be when the rest of the words came out, and he himself had already expected in his heart.
"Just what?" Helga ran out of patience and pulled down his face, "You'd better just say anything, or else.."
"Captain, when we arrived at the city gate, we found that the city lord's guards at the city gate had all run away because of the riot just now. After saying this, he buried his head directly in his armor. Although he did not belong to a single army, he was ashamed of such soldiers.
"Good, good. You're doing a great job. A riot caused by a small horse was able to make the city lord's guards throw down the city gate and escape. Well, this is our Santa Ansta Guard, and I think His Majesty will be glad to see such a good soldier guarding the capital..."Helga didn't know what kind of expression he should make now, he never thought it would happen.
Turning his head and looking at the gate of the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group, Helga's face was full of hideousness: "Come on, demolish this place for me, all of them are demolished." ā
After saying that, Helga took the agreement to resell the mine in his arms and left without looking back. Although the king's confession was finally completed, there was no joy for Helga, on the contrary, his heart was bitter.
After Helga left, the rest of the people looked at each other, and finally, one of the soldiers couldn't help but speak: "Head, what are we going to do?"
The squad leader, who had just been reprimanded and didn't dare to raise his head, put a helmet in his arms back on his head, and looked at his subordinates viciously: "What to do, I know what to do." The people of Helga said to demolish it, then it was all demolished. Not at all. ā
With that, he also left the place. Now he has no intention of continuing to show off his might. What kind of punishment His Majesty will have on himself is what he is most concerned about.
Both leaders ran away, leaving the rest even more dumbfounded. In the end, the soldier who had just spoken beckoned: "Demolish!"
So, the other soldiers who were waiting on the side hurriedly ran forward and began the violent demolition work. As he worked, a soldier who was involved in the pursuit of Seamus asked his companion worriedly, "What kind of punishment will we receive this time?"
"Punishment, any kind of punishment, at least we are alive. Helga, this damn bed bug, let's go after that Seamus. How did the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group perish? Someone like Pastor Jeffrey didn't end up with the entire Priesthood. Listen to me, the water here is too deep for us to handle. Even if we let us go home as civilians this time, I will admit it, at least my life is still alive. The soldiers beside him also viciously slashed the gate of the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group with their knives, cursing and swearing in their mouths. Obviously, I am also very dissatisfied with this incident.
"But aren't the Silver Wolf Mercenaries innocent?" this is a soldier who has just joined the Royal Guard, and his parents secretly stuffed Helga with a lot of gold coins in order to help him find this job. Thinking of being dismissed, he was still a little reluctant in his heart.
"Tell you, brother. There is no clean one in this group, and the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group is no exception. Either way, killing us is like killing a bedbug. If nothing else, we're out of luck. It's good to be alive, and with our family, we can live well in other things. "This is an old oilman, who has seen a lot through the years in the Royal Guard, and it is estimated that the loyalty to His Majesty the King is only effective when receiving monthly allowances and blackmailing merchants.
At this time, the sound of several people dismantling the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group aroused the curiosity of others. There were some daring children, some civilians, who had gathered in the distance, pointing at the place.
"What do you see? Do you have anything to do with the fleeing Bloods? came to find out the news?" one of the guards yelled at the crowd in the distance. The civilians who were watching the excitement immediately scattered and fled, and the crowd also squeezed an old woman with a basket on her shoulder, who was supposed to be out to buy something, to the ground.
Seeing the old woman getting up from the ground in embarrassment, several guards laughed, and the depression in their hearts seemed to have been alleviated.
When the old woman got up from the ground, she picked up her basket in a panic, and hurried into the alley by the side of the road, and left the place. However, instead of going home, she walked around the narrow alleys of the residential area. With his familiarity with the terrain, he soon appeared at the gate of Santa Ansta.
This is not the gate where the riots took place in the afternoon, but in a completely opposite direction. By this time, the old woman had no basket in her hand, and she walked out of Santa Ansta with a cane, and then the afterglow of the setting sun.
The guards at the gates saw the old woman, but then the guards looked away. He sees a lot of such old people every day. Because of his old age and poverty, he could only live in tents in the slums outside the city gates, and went into the city every day to pick up some laundry work to make ends meet.
Perhaps, this winter, this old woman's life will come to an end, but who cares? her own life is too busy, and no one will care about other people.
The guard, however, did not notice that the old woman did not go to the slum as she had thought, but went out along the road outside the city, and soon turned into the woods by the roadside.
A moment later, Seamus, who had changed back into his clothes, rode back to the road on a horse. Looking at Santa Ansta behind him, he sneered, and then left the place without looking back.
