Chapter 153: No, You Go
Ebrusus' face turned ugly when he saw Kured, and Tennison stepped out of the crowd.
"Surrender, you've already lost this battle."
Hearing this, Aebrusus was silent, and Ilea also said, "As long as you lay down your weapons now, I can guarantee that you will all be treated properly, and I will let you go back when your family sends you the ransom." ”
Aebrusus finally spoke, "I refuse to surrender. ”
"I know you want to keep your family, but from what I know about Lanita, if you lose the horns of abundance, she will kill your family, whether you surrender in the end or not."
This time it was Iwan who spoke, "And if you surrender now, at least you can live." ”
"I am not afraid of death."
"I know, but you have to think about your son, don't you," Iwan said, pouting in Kured's direction.
Ebbrusus' face suddenly became a little exciting.
He was about to say something, but there was a bang in his ears, and someone didn't hold the weapon in his hand and fell to the ground.
Ebrutus glared at the man, but soon more people threw away their weapons, and the sound was like some kind of signal that made everyone lose their fighting spirit.
Seeing this, Aebrusus let out a long sigh, and could only unwillingly insert the saber in his hand at his feet.
Soon he was taken down and imprisoned in a dungeon in the city.
Because there were so many people who surrendered, the female lord only singled out valuable nobles among them and locked them up with Aebrusus.
The rest simply took away their weapons and armor, found a place outside the city, and kept them in check.
Then she followed Wilde to the City Lord's Mansion.
The head of the Singleton family looked at the familiar castle in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
When he was forced to leave here more than two months ago, although he also thought that he would be able to come back one day, he did not expect this day to come so quickly.
Wild is now glad that he gave his granddaughter to Li Yu as a guard, and took the opportunity to hug the thigh of Shuangxiujiao.
Otherwise, with his own strength, it would be impossible for him to resist the advance of those Wing Clansmen, let alone regain the lost territory.
Thinking of this, Wild said to the female lordess, "The Ensingerton family of today must be remembered, and no matter what you and the Prophet Merlin send in the future, my children and grandchildren and I will never refuse. ”
Ilea waved her hand, "You have fought alongside us against those invaders before, and together we have made a sacred oath that it is our duty to help you reclaim the Horn of Plenty.
"And although this town has been defeated by us, the surrounding area is still controlled by those Wing Clan or their allies, so I am afraid that you will be under a lot of pressure in the future."
Wilder nodded, "I was just thinking about discussing this with you. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone call his name, "Lord Greymane! ”
Wilder looked in the direction from which the voice had come and saw a beggar by the side of the road, who was also staring at him in surprise.
"It's really you, Lord Greymane! I knew you would return, and it must be the guidance of the gods of the earth and the grain! ”
The more the man spoke, the more agitated he became, and at last snot and tears welled up together.
Wilder, however, looked disgusted, "Alright, Priest Helbert, don't cry yet. ”
"I ...... I've been waiting for you, for I'm confident that Julius will save the city and its worshippers. The old priest did not stop his tears, but howled louder and louder.
"It has nothing to do with Julius." Wild interrupted him.
"Ah, it doesn't matter, you are a believer in Julius, and you regain the horn of abundance, and naturally you are also the guide of Julius."
"I've long since ceased to be a believer in Julius." Wilde confessed, "Honestly, I have not had any reverence for the gods of the earth and the grain since I traveled to the royal capital with Prophet Merlin and Ser Ilea to witness the miracles of Saturday.
"It's only because there are so many Eullius in this city, and because your church is quite capable of doing things, that I didn't convert to Shuangxiu at once, but gave Donia to Prophet Merlin as a guard.
"But then I went to the Green Fields and joined the rebels led by Sir Ilea, and at that time I completed the initiation ceremony of the Church of Fortnight with the others.
"And this time it was Ser Ilea and the believers of Saturday who helped me reclaim the Horn of Plenty, and your god of earth and grain did not protect its followers."
Wild pointed to the tattered clothes on Helbert, "I heard that you make yourself a new set of clothes every month, why are you wearing it like this now?" ”
Helbert almost cried at the mention of this, and screamed, "Those guys are robbers!" As soon as they entered the city, they kicked me out of my house and robbed me of everything of value.
"Forget it, they also smashed the temple of Julius, woo woo, and threatened me to pull out my tongue if I dared to continue preaching, and you won't see me if you come back later."
Wilder had been friends with Helbert for decades anyway, and when he saw that he was so miserable now, he felt a little pitiful for him, so he got off his horse, walked up to him, patted him on the back and comforted him.
"It's all right, the robbers have been defeated by us."
When the old priest heard this, he finally stopped crying, raised his head and said, "Then my house and the money that was robbed ......."
Wilder took off his purse, took out ten gold coins from it, and stuffed them into Helbert's hand, and the latter's heart warmed, and before he could thank him, he heard Wilder continue.
"Take this money and treat it as the cost of leaving Cape Plenty."
"Huh?" The old priest was dumbfounded, "I didn't say I was leaving." ”
Helbert didn't run away when the wing-clansmen called, mainly because he was reluctant to give up his mansion and beautiful clothes, and when Wilde finally came back, of course he had no reason to go.
But Wild said, "No, you have to go...... Julius still has many followers enslaved by the Winged and their allies, waiting for you to rescue them. ”
Helbert almost blurted out, what does this have to do with me. Fortunately, he was not completely dizzy, so he finally held back, and withdrew his hand and said, "I, I can help them here." ”
Seeing this, Wild shoehorned the ten gold coins through, "The most important thing is that the people of this city will have to believe in Saturday in the future, and there is no place for you here." ”
