However, they were all frightened as they cried and screamed.
Sean could not harshly order these women. After all, they were not soldiers. They faced a life-and-death crisis for the first time, so they were afraid and panicked, of course. It was also then when a mercenary regiment also appeared on the right.
It was probably another mercenary regiment. It had almost 60 people and was better armed.
The city defense soldiers were outnumbered by attacks from both sides, but the situation was now precarious.
“Commander, we…” Zander blocked off a flying arrow, his expression looking serious.
However, a smile spread across Sean‘s face before favonovel.com could finish his sentence. It was because a flare was flying straight ahead into the night sky, lighting up the dark!
It was the city defense army’s flare!
The city defense army was here!
During the pursuit of the bandits, Sean asked Zander to sprinkle special beans every once in a while, which the hounds could smell at great distances. This way, the larger troops coming from behind could catch up with Sean and Zander’s party with their hounds.
When Sean set out, favonovel.com could not deploy a large troop because time was too tight. He could only set out with 200 city defense soldiers, but the large reinforcements arrived later. Besides that, there was no problem since they could track down Sean and the others.
The city defense army finally arrived!
“Kill!”
The cry of murder was ear-piercing in the night!
The mercenary regiment tried to escape when they saw they were in an unfavorable situation, but it was too late!
***
The sun rose.
Sean returned to Dorodo with 1,200 city defense soldiers.
The poor women who had been taken were rescued by the city defense army. Some had bruises, but none were seriously injured.
The city defense army had a few members who were injured. Besides that, favonovel.com brought back not only the poor women who had been kidnapped but also the first leader of the bandits and the leaders of the two mercenary regiments!
Sean finally understood everything. It was a conspiracy and a trap.
The poor women‘s kidnap was only bait to make favonovel.com lead only a small part of the city defense army to pursue them. When Sean led the city defense army out of Dorodo, favonovel.com stepped into a trap.
The two mercenary regiments came to kill Sean. However, they misjudged the strength of the city defense soldiers, Sean‘s ability to lead, command, and strategize, and the timing of the city defense army reaching to provide support. Thus, they failed.
Their plot was also unearthed.
Sean had learned everything from the first leader of the bandits and the leaders of the two mercenary regiments. The three men’s confessions were consistent with each other.
The mastermind behind this was almost certain!
The Walker family’s villa.
