Lord Chronicle

Chapter 261 Awareness
"You... what are you doing?"

Garrett looked at Sol and his party who came to the door in the middle of the night, and was speechless for a long time.

"What else can I do, of course I'm asking for your help to take us out of the city." Sol took it for granted.

"What, leaving the city?" Garrett lost his voice: "It's easy for you to say, don't you know that the Lulin people have closed all the entrances and exits of this city since a few days ago."

"Of course I know." Sol shrugged: "If I could get out through the regular channels, I wouldn't come looking for you. Doesn't your Thieves Guild have its own secret way, like the one that sent Chip and me out last time? "

Garrett couldn't help but said: "My God, it's not as easy as you said. It's okay to send a few or even a dozen people, but you... you have hundreds of people, right? You can only touch it."

Garrett was right. At this moment, outside the secret stronghold of the Thieves Guild, a large group of members of the resistance organization were noisily gathered.

These people can only be regarded as well-armed militiamen at best, and their discipline is naturally not very good.Gathering outside at this moment, even if they deliberately kept quiet, the movement was astonishing. If it weren't for the chaos in Ferry City at this moment, Ferino would have been targeted by the Lulin Army before he could issue a search order.

Sol said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, I don't care if I will be discovered, as long as I can get out of the city."

Garrett said unhappily: "Don't be kidding, do you know how much effort our Thieves Guild took to open up this secret passage? If we really let so many people go out, they will definitely be discovered by the Lulin Army, and our loss will be great. "

"Then... the big deal is that I will compensate you. Tell me, how much will it cost?" Thor said.

Garrett sighed: "Master Saul, don't you understand? It's not a matter of money or not. In short, I can't help with this matter. Please give up."

"You..." Seeing that he still refused to agree, Gein was so angry that he drew his sword.

Sol quickly stopped him, and turned his head with a smirk on his face: "Hey, do you know?"

"What... what?" For some reason, seeing his expression, Garrett couldn't help but feel a chill.

"If you really don't want to, I won't force you. But I want to remind you that something terrible happened in the city tonight. If I'm not wrong, the Lulin Army will launch a comprehensive investigation tomorrow."

"I think you should know the background of those people outside. Since they can't get out of the city, they have nowhere to go. They probably don't mind waiting outside until dawn, and then have a big fight with the Lu Lin army they found."

Having said that, Sol bowed slightly to Garrett, who was suddenly discolored: "I'm sorry, I have caused the Thieves Guild, I apologize to you in advance..."

"Okay, okay, I understand, I'll just send you out." Before he could finish speaking, Garrett yelled.

"Well, we know each other so well, how can I have the heart to hurt you." Sol smiled and put his arms around his shoulders.

Regarding this, Garrett couldn't laugh or cry: "Yeah, why don't you have the heart to hurt me, right?"

Sol pretended not to hear the sarcasm in his words, and walked outside.After taking two steps, he suddenly turned around again: "By the way, Youdao is to help to the end. After we leave Ferry City, we still need to travel for a few days. We have no preparations in a hurry. I think the Thieves Guild should..."

"I see." At this time, Garrett didn't even have the strength to get angry: "The guild still has some emergency reserves, you can use them anyway."

"How did I find out that entrusting you to Ferry City is really a wise decision." Sol picked up a cheap smile on his face.

"Yeah, how did I just find out." Garrett smiled wryly, "You're so shameless."

"Thank you, many people have praised me so much."

"My God, what a nightmare experience. The secret way, this is the secret way, I probably never dreamed that so many people would come in one day."

After sending Sol and his party out of the city, Garrett looked exhausted as if he had completed a [-]-meter long-distance race.

"It seems that the Lulin people have noticed us. Thanks to everyone, this secret passage will no longer be available for use." Garrett said resentfully.

"Hmm..." Sol also turned his head to look like him, only to see that in the twilight before dawn, on the city wall in the distance, the Lulin soldiers who had noticed the group of people who slipped out of the city were in a hurry.

"In any case, I need more of your help. No, it should be said that you indirectly saved 10,000+ lives." Sol held Garrett's hand and shook it twice.

As he said that, before Garrett could ask any questions, he turned around and walked towards the team, clapping his hands loudly and said, "Everyone, time is running out. We will set off immediately before the Lulin people chase them out."

Just when Sol was about to leave with the crowd, Garrett suddenly stopped him.

Facing Saul's puzzled gaze, Garrett spread his hands: "As you said, help people to the end. Anyway, it's come to this point, do you want me to get involved?"

Sol was slightly taken aback, then smiled involuntarily, but he still shook his head: "Thank you, but you have been involved deeply enough. This time, I have completed all the entrustments to you, so no matter what happens next What's the matter, you'd better leave Ferry City immediately."

"After that, if I'm not dead, we'll see you in Lovell."

Having said that, Sol waved to him, turned around and caught up with the team.

Watching a group of people gradually disappear into the darkness before dawn, Garrett gave a self-conscious smile, shook his head and turned around: "What's wrong with me, is it really influenced by him?"

"However, this entrustment will probably never be forgotten for the rest of my life..."

"What, someone slipped out of town?"

When Felino received the report from his subordinates, it was already an hour after Sol and the others left the city.

When he took people to the park last night, Sol had long since disappeared.All that was left was the corpses on the ground, and Brock, who was seriously injured.

After letting Sol slip away twice in a row, Ferino calmed down instead.He knew that, given the chaotic situation in Ferry City at night, it was impossible to catch up with him.

Therefore, he simply stayed on the spot and began to issue a series of orders to prepare for the city-wide suppression after dawn.

From Felino's point of view, after being forced out of his hiding place by himself, coupled with the encounter in the park, Sol is like a lost dog. Even if he escapes for a while, he will have nowhere to hide in this city.

At the same time, he also lost the patience to continue playing with Sol. Now that the rabbit has been driven out of the cave, Ferino has no need to let those resistance groups continue to make trouble.

Therefore, he intends to come here to clean up thoroughly, and sweep Sol and the resistance organizations that disrupted the stability of Ferry City into the prison, and they will be settled once and for all.

Admit it, Saul, you've lost it all!

So when he heard the news, Felino, who was busy making arrangements, didn't take it seriously: "Oh, probably because he was afraid of the chaos in the city, he escaped privately, and he didn't have time to deal with those people at this time. "

"No..." The soldier who came to report swallowed, "The other side...has hundreds of people."

"What did you say?" Before Felino could speak, an official next to him jumped up: "Didn't you tell you to strictly guard the entrances and exits? Why did you let so many people escape from the city?"

The soldier said anxiously: "I, I don't know either. The other party seems to have a way like a secret passage. When we found out, those people were already outside the city, and then quickly disappeared."

"Because Lord Felino ordered that the city's defenses must be strictly guarded, so we dare not leave our post to chase after him. The captain ordered me to come and report immediately."

"What kind of secret way, it's because you are incompetent..." the official said angrily.

Before he finished speaking, Felino interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and said, "Where did those people escape?"

The soldier thought for a while and said, "Although they couldn't see clearly because of the darkness, they seemed to be running west."

"West side?" The officials on the side immediately laughed: "These stupid guys, if they run to the east, they probably have a way to escape into the control area of ​​Dinar. I didn't expect them to run to the border? Are they planning to escape into our country? Is it the Lulin Empire?"

Another official also laughed: "No, I think they will be caught by the garrison there when they approach the Sidvila Fortress."

"It's just right, the prisoners of Dinard's Western Legion are being held at the fortress, and they happen to be companions."

Unexpectedly, the speaker was unintentional, but here Felino couldn't help but move in his heart: "Fort Sidvila? A prisoner?"

For some reason, he instinctively felt that this matter should not be that simple, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Anyway, what can a few hundred people do.

At this moment, an official laughed and said, "However, there was a fire in the fort a while ago, and those people came to the door to help with repairs, hahaha... Hey, Mr. Felino, who is this?"

However, just as the official laughed out loud, Felino grabbed his collar and said, "You said that Sidvila Fortress once caught fire, what happened?"

Not understanding why he had such a big reaction, the official stammered: "For unknown reasons, a fire broke out in the fortress a while ago. No, but please rest assured that the fire did not cause any damage. The officers of the Western Legion have only been transferred out temporarily."

"Officers were transferred out...Sol...hundreds of people...to the west..." Ferino muttered a few words, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and immediately widened his eyes.

"Why didn't you report such an important matter to me?" He almost shouted.

The official was trembling with fear: "Because the resistance group was making chaos in the city at that time, and the local garrison reported that there was no loss, so I just..."

"You idiot!" Felino pushed him away angrily, thought for a moment, and strode away under the puzzled eyes of everyone.

Brock, attended by several soldiers, was having a priest tend to his wounds.Afterwards, he saw Felino with a gloomy face hurrying over.

"What happened? This is the first time I've seen your expression." He sneered.

Ignoring his ridicule, Felino said to himself: "I just received a report that not long ago some people escaped from Ferry City and headed for Fortress Vila."

"Oh? And then?" Bullock raised his eyebrows.

"There is enough evidence to show that their purpose was to detain the prisoners of the Western Legion in the fortress." Filino said.

"You mean those captives?" Bullock was slightly startled. He waved his hand to let the soldiers and priests leave, and then asked, "How many people are there?"

"Hundreds of people..."

Before Felino could finish speaking, Brock interrupted: "What? Did I hear correctly, a few hundred people?"

Felino nodded.

Bullock couldn't help but glanced at him: "It seems that you have been made a little nervous by recent events. What can a few hundred people do? You must know that there are nearly [-] regular soldiers guarding the prisoners."

Felino said in a deep voice: "At first I thought so too. However, since Sol sneaked into Ferry City, the series of events that have happened are too strange. Coupled with the fire in the fort not long ago, I can For sure, behind all this, he is playing tricks."

Brock is not stupid after all, he immediately understood: "You mean, the purpose of his doing this is for the prisoners in the fortress?"

Felino nodded: "That's right, they sneaked into Ferry City must be to rescue those captives. Whether it's kidnapping Mr. Cliff or creating chaos in the entire city, they are all preparing for that event."

"But they were almost caught last night. Although they ran away, they wouldn't take the risk again so soon, right?" Speaking of which, Brock seemed to be thinking of that humiliating battle, and his face turned ugly again.

Felino breathed out: "No, in my opinion, that guy Sol should not be underestimated no matter what. At first I wondered why he did so many things, but now everything is clear."

"Besides, after exposing Xingzang, he had to take the risk because that was his only chance to turn around. Now it doesn't matter whether Sol is among those who escaped from the city or is still in the city, but we must stop him The final plan."

Bullock said indifferently: "Then you can do it, although I don't think those hundreds of people can play any tricks."

"No." Felino shook his head: "I need your help."

"Me?" Brock was stunned, and then said in a deep voice: "Unfortunately, I'm not interested in your speculation at all. Now I have my own things to do, I want to find out who is using the black sword, and then with him…"

"Mr. Bullock, I don't think you understand yet."

Suddenly, Felino's face became solemn: "The one just now was not a request, but a request. Or, it was an order."

"What did you say?" Bullock's face turned cold: "I heard that right, you said, are you ordering me?"

"That's right." Looking at Felino's appearance, he didn't mean to be joking at all: "General Bullock, the commander of the madmen's army, once again I formally order you to go out of the city immediately to gather your troops, and rush to the Sidvila Fortress with me .”

"Hahaha, that's enough, these days are full of inexplicable things, first it was that kid, and now it's you..." Bullock couldn't help laughing as if hearing something extremely funny.

Suddenly, he jumped up almost in a fit of rage, and roared at Ferino: "Stinky boy, did you make a mistake somewhere, how dare you say that you ordered me..."

Suddenly, his expression was as if something had blocked his mouth, and then he forced the rest of the words back, froze in place strangely.

Looking at the thing in Felino's hand in disbelief, Brock said, "How is it possible, where did you get it from?"

Felino said calmly: "Military Combat Command, but this is not important. General Bullock, I will repeat the order again, call your troops immediately, and follow me to the fortress, immediately!"

"Impossible, how could the military department give you such an important thing, there must be something wrong." Brock seemed to come to his senses suddenly: "I'll go to the headquarters to ask for clarification."

"General Bullock, do you dare to disobey?" Ferino snapped.

"Hmm..." As a professional Lulin soldier, obedience to orders has almost been imprinted in Brock's bone marrow.

So despite being full of doubts and being extremely unwilling, Brock gritted his teeth for a while, and finally bowed his head and said, "Yes, I understand."

Then, he raised his head and said with fierce eyes: "But I don't care how you got it, bastard, after this matter is over, I will make you regret what you did today!"

But Felino didn't seem to take his words to heart at all: "After capturing Saul and completely breaking his tricks, you can use all means to deal with me."

"But before that, please be sure to obey my orders."

"Hmph, a few Dinar people are going to dispatch my troops, you are making a big deal out of a molehill." Bullock snorted unnaturally.

Felino looked back at him, and said lightly: "So, it seems that you haven't suffered enough from them? But I won't hold back any more. This time, I will do everything I can to mobilize it thoroughly. smash them to pieces."

It seemed that Felino hit the sore spot, thinking of the dead Rieger and Fielding, and looking at the wound he had just healed, Brock's face was covered with a murderous look: "Then it will be as you said."

Felino nodded: "Thank you, believe me, I have a hunch, this time it is definitely not a fuss. Moreover, we must be as fast as possible."

"Then, please mobilize your troops as quickly as possible and follow me to the fortress."

As he said that, Felino called several officials loudly, and ordered: "After I leave, you will carry out an inventory of Ferry City as planned, and you must not let any suspicious person go. As long as necessary, give me every family The house was turned over."

After several officials left in a hurry, Felino looked at the sky where the sun was already emerging, and said in a low voice, "Sol, let me see your last move..."
