Chapter 1095: Chapter 308: After the Ordeal
Amidst the sounds of driving the horses, Callum rode away from the farmland, galloping into the distant darkness.
After riding for several minutes.
Callum couldn’t help but look back.
No sound of cavalry hooves thundering, no sight of cavalry...
Callum’s tense emotions finally relaxed a little.
At the moment when the robust armored cavalry told him to wait.
He already knew that the robust armored cavalry was not the commander of this armored cavalry team!
That means.
Apart from the two hundred armored cavalry he just saw, there might very well be another soldier team!
The commander of the armored cavalry team was with another soldier team.
As for the number of soldiers in that other team...
Callum had no way of knowing.
But this is additional intelligence information!
Compared to these.
The most important thing is that he was lucky to survive the charge of the armored cavalry team.
And managed to escape from the encirclement of the armored cavalry team!
Callum looked ahead and once again increased the speed of his horse.
Until far ahead.
The towering silhouettes of buildings appeared, and the light of oil lamps emerged.
Hope rose in Callum’s eyes!
No matter how many soldiers Lord Lynn of Morgan Town dispatched to Bo Xi Town, entering Benitez Manor.
As long as he can return to Master Devant’s manor dwelling.
Then he still has a chance to survive!
At least.
He can rely on Master Devant’s guards and peasants, rely on those defensive structures, to hold out!
Thinking of this, Callum’s heart relaxed once more.
This must be the feeling of surviving a disaster!
Only now did Callum realize that the robe he wore was soaked through with sweat...
Clop clop~ Clop clop~
As the horse kept galloping, Callum drew ever closer to the three-story manor dwelling ahead.
Callum finally saw clearly the figures swaying in front of the manor dwelling were indeed the guards and peasants from Benitez Manor!
Standing at the gate of the manor dwelling, was Master Devant Benitez!
The sound of thundering hooves reached the ears of everyone in the open space square.
They all turned their bodies and looked at Callum.
Callum’s heart slightly sank.
Under the gaze of everyone, he passed through one defensive structure after another and across the open space square, arriving next to Devant.
Swiftly dismounting, Callum stood three meters away from Devant, bowed in salute, and respectfully said.
"Master!"
Seeing the dirt and dried blood stains on Callum’s body, Devant’s brows instantly furrowed.
Devant asked in a deep voice, "How come you’re the only one returning to the manor?"
"Where are the dozens of guards you took out?"
Callum didn’t dare hide anything and explained.
"Master, the dozens of guards taken out perished entirely during the charge of the cavalry dispatched by Lord Lynn!"
"They are equipped with standard armor and armed with long spears, we had no chance to resist."
"Even I barely survived by luck..."
Devant’s brows tightened.
His already cold face turned even more stern!
Even though the guards weren’t wearing any armor, they were still the armed force of the manor dwelling!
Yet Callum apparently wasted them so easily?
It seemed Callum sensed Devant’s actual changes, he hurriedly changed his tone and said.
"Master, although the guards perished during the armored cavalry team’s charge."
"However, Callum has brought back some good news for you!"
Devant spoke, "Go ahead."
Callum lowered his head and hurriedly said.
"The commander of the cavalry team dispatched by Lord Lynn has agreed to your request for a face-to-face meeting."
"The meeting location is in the farmland area about ten miles from the manor dwelling."
"It’s at the former boundary between Colin Manor and Benitez Manor."
Devant’s face showed noticeable surprise.
"Agreed so easily?"
Callum nodded in response.
Devant pondered for a few seconds, asking again.
"Did they make any demands?"
"For instance, requesting me to go alone?"
Callum shook his head directly, without any hesitation.
"Master, there are no demands."
"Because I mentioned to the armored Cavalry Captain that the detailed content of cooperation needs to be discussed in person."
Without speaking, Devant’s eyes shifted rapidly, seemingly pondering something.
After a moment.
Devant looked at Callum again, asking.
"You said you faced the armored cavalry team’s charge, did you count the number of armored cavalry?"
Callum replied, "Master, I saw exactly two hundred armored cavalry!"
Devant had yet to catch a breath.
Callum continued saying, "However, I can be certain that apart from this armored cavalry, there is definitely another soldier team!"
"Because after I informed that Cavalry Captain, he didn’t agree right away but asked me to stay put and wait!"
"Over half an hour later, that Cavalry Captain returned and informed me that their commander agreed to your cooperation."
Devant murmured, "Another soldier team..."
Callum continued saying, "The number of soldiers in the other team cannot be determined for now..."
Devant fell silent again.
A few seconds later.
Devant spoke to Callum, "Understood."
"Since they have agreed to a face-to-face talk, let’s talk first."
Callum hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to speak.
Devant’s gaze shifted, looking at the lined-up forty-five hundred figures opposite, and said in a deep voice.
"Everyone turn in the direction and head toward the boundary between Benet Manor and Cole Manor."
"Depart immediately!"
Hearing Devant’s loud and powerful shout, Callum’s brows raised.
Master Devant actually plans to take everyone from the manor dwelling, all the strength, and go?
If there are external enemies, taking advantage of Benitez Manor being unguarded, seizing the manor dwelling, occupying it...
The consequences would be unimaginable.
But Callum reconsidered.
Currently, only three forces exist in Bo Xi Town.
Benitez Manor, McKinley Manor, and Lord Lynn who invaded Bo Xi Town.
No external invaders are possible.
All guards and peasants have been armed.
Master Devant’s display makes it clear that he is prepared for whatever follows.
Once the division of benefits after conquering McKinley Manor is completed with the commander of the armored cavalry team.
Master Devant will undoubtedly issue attack orders to guards and peasants!
As the guards led the horses over, Devant swiftly mounted one.
Devant let out a call as he rode the horse, galloping to the forefront of the advancing guards and peasants team.
Watching Master Devant’s distant figure depart, Callum’s heart was filled with hesitation.
The scene of the armored cavalry charging at him was still vivid.
He barely managed to survive among dozens of guards.
Now, face that armored cavalry again?
Though Callum’s heart was helpless, unwilling to go.
Yet, as the Manor Lord himself set out, leading guards and peasants to go.
As the Guard Captain, how could he remain uninvolved, hiding in the manor dwelling?
With a sigh, Callum mounted his horse.
Chasing after Master Devant in the distance.
Callum secretly vowed in his heart.
When this battle ends, he must visit Lady Dalia’s room and reward himself thoroughly!
