Chapter 1114
1114 Chapter 1,155: Hainan City…
The first clash between the two forces came to an end when Saab desperately gave in to Vienne. On the other side, Brother Dog’s journey had also come to the day he had been looking forward to the most.
The plan was for everyone to replenish their energy. Other than a few people who were on night duty, everyone else slept for eight hours.
However, from General Luke to the commoner women, even after eating their fill and drinking hot wine, they were still so excited that they could not sleep. By the next day, many people’s eyes were bloodshot.
The soldiers also had dark circles under their eyes, but when it was time to gather, even some of the children who hadn’t grown up were in high spirits!
Luke didn’t stop all of this because he himself was so excited that he didn’t fall asleep. In his mind, this crucial night didn’t have much meaning.
If he went to h.e.l.l Tomorrow, then there would be plenty of time to sleep in the future. If he went to Heaven Tomorrow, then in the future… … He would also have plenty of time to sleep.
He didn’t even ask David to clear the supplies when they were married.
Because the food had been eaten clean yesterday. If they couldn’t find the place that the orc said they could shelter in today, then their journey in life would end here. There was no need to worry about anything else, whether it was a blessing or a curse, it would be this wave.
To be honest, yesterday he was still skeptical and had some insomnia. But when it was time to set off, he was very relaxed.
Because no matter what the result was, he could finally rest… …
Many people had such thoughts. Not only Luke, but also many soldiers and civilians. Even the countess, who had been taking care of Jenny, was much more relaxed today.
She was usually heavy and light-footed. No matter what, there would be a result today, whether it was good or bad.
If it was good, then he would naturally thank G.o.d. If it was bad, he would accompany his daughter and be completely free. It was not a big deal. After all, he had been prepared to do the worst.
After gathering, Luke simply asked his men to count the people. After making sure that no one was left behind, he turned to look at Brother Dog. “Mr. Grom, do you have anything else to say?”
As he said this, everyone looked at the tall orc. At the most desperate moment, the orc had promised them their hope.
They also wanted to know what the ORC would say to them.
Brother Dog looked at everyone. Looking at the pairs of eager eyes, his emotions became a little complicated. Suddenly, he began to worry about gains and losses.
A few days ago, he did not care about these people at all. However, things like people would always develop feelings when they came into contact with them. These days, he saw soldiers who remembered their wives and daughters and chose to move forward bravely, he saw the parents who gave their children their scarce rations. He saw the countess who went to great lengths every day to comfort her crippled daughter and instil hope in her.
All of this made him truly realize that these… … Were all living people… …
At this moment, he was actually a little afraid. What if… … What if he didn’t bring them hope in the end. What if… ? What if he brought them to the Abyss?
Would Sunny… Forgive me?
While he was lost, a broad hand patted his waist. Grom turned around and looked, but it was David who had approached him.
“Why do you look like that?”David asked.
Brother Dog was silent for a few seconds and suddenly said, “Haven’t you ever thought that the sanctuary might not exist?”
The moment he said that, the entire place fell silent. No one had expected brother dog to say something like that.
Luke also frowned. He felt that what he said was inappropriate. Just as he was about to say something to remedy the situation, David spoke first.
“So what if it doesn’t exist…”
Brother Dog looked at him in shock.
David smiled and said, “Anyway, there’s no other way out. What else can we do other than follow you?”
In the darkness, David’s smile was very bright. Everyone seemed to have been infected by it. They smiled the same way and jeered, “Yeah, even if it’s a trap, we can only jump into it with you!”
Brother Dog silently looked at this group of people and smiled for the first time in more than ten days… …
“I don’t have so many people in my trap!”Brother Dog smiled and looked at everyone. “Follow me closely. No matter what happens, please remember my words!”
Everyone’s expression was stunned again, for a moment, a strange feeling rose in their hearts. Looking at this tall figure, they felt as solid as a mountain, making them feel incomparably at ease… . .
———-
Nanhai city, once one of the most prosperous cities of the steel arms empire, as the only port linking the western 100-nation alliance, many times in the eyes of many businessmen, its status is higher than the imperial capital.
There were all kinds of legends that circulated here. Many people became rich overnight, and many people went from sailors to legendary crocodiles. The stories here were no less than those in the northern battlefield, in fact, many times, they were even more exciting.
This was because most of the northern knights were still heroes among the n.o.bles. However, the stories that circulated in Nanhai City were more about the rise of the commoners and the changing of fortunes. It was easier for them to spread among the ma.s.ses.
The bards spread these stories throughout the land. Many young people who were unwilling to stay in the countryside as farmers all left their hometown and came to this dream-chasing land.
As a small city in the south, Kate City also had many dream-chasing young people who left every year. Although there were few who returned home in glory, there was an endless stream of impulsive young people every year.
At this time, when the people of Kate City came here, their emotions were extremely complicated when they faced this city.
Many of the middle-aged and strong people here had the idea of coming to explore the world at their most pa.s.sionate age. However, because of their parents, because of their relatives, because of their younger brothers and sisters who needed to provide for them,. A series of realistic problems prevented them from doing as they wished. In the end, they became farmers, herdsmen, blacksmiths, carpenters, or small shop owners just like their parents…
They lived a dull and numb life day after day…
However, they never thought that they would have the chance to come here one day, and they came here full of hope.
Luke and the others drew their swords vigilantly. The entrance of South Sea city was quieter than they had imagined, but they didn’t let their guard down because it was very likely that the moment they stepped through the city gate, the monsters would rush over.., they were the sea-like monsters that Bob had mentioned.
Although they had thought that even if they died today, it would be a relief, but as warriors, if the worst came to the worst, they still hoped to fight until the moment they were exhausted, at least there would be a way for a warrior to die, if they didn’t even pull out their swords, and their heads were bitten off by the monsters, it would be too ugly.
Just like that, with all kinds of complicated thoughts, the group followed the tall orc figure in front of them and slowly stepped into Hainan City!
