Chapter 561 Closing Battle
"Pheiw! Pheiw! Pheiw! Pheiw! Pheiw! Pheiw!"
Landon and his crew took care of the bandits one by one, while stealthily made their way into the lair.
"You!
Who the h.e.l.l are you?"
"Pheiw!"
"Ahhh!
Motherf***er!..... you"ll pay for that!"
"Dammit!
What did you do to me?"
"Quickly brother, shoot your arrows at them now!
Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!!!"
"Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup! Thup!"
Landon and his team continued advancing forward while killing all the bandits before them.
Since they were overwhelmingly outnumbered, they quickly killed their way into the lair in no time.
In fact, it only took about 2 hours for the entire battle to end.
And when they were done, they quickly freed up all the captured villagers in the dungeon cells below.... and hastily sent for the other bandits that had been put to sleep in the first battle.
They would be locked in the dungeon as prisoners instead.
For Landon and his men, this was just a small battle that wasn"t even worth mentioning when compared to the mission that they were going for.
Time was of the essence for them, so they had to wrap up everything A.S.A.P.
But after winning the battle, one thing that they realized..... was that the main boss wasn"t here, as well as some other gang members too.
And from what the slaves had said, the missing bandits divided themselves and went to collect rations from 3 other villages bot far from here.
And as for their boss, he went to one of the small towns around.
Apparently, he had gone there to deliver several messages to the messenger guild.... who would then ride out an deliver the message to the main Lord in charge of all these territories.
The message would probably be about the rations and money that the Wolfhound bandits had collected.
Anyway..... with that said, it was clear that they hadn"t finished their work yet.
So immediately, Landon sent out 3 groups to head on over to those villages.... while he and some other soldiers would stay around the lair instead.
From what the slaves had said, the big boss usually came back around 3 P.M.... which was just 45 minutes away.
And so just like that, everyone did their part and took care of all loose ends.
.
At 3:22 P.M, the big boss who was riding alongside some of his confidants... was immediately surrounded and captured just outside the gates of the lair, which was totally unbelievable to him.
How could this have happened?
One minute, he was like a king in these regions... and the next minute, he was brought down to the level of a prisoner instead.
This ... this was truly something that he had never imagined before.
After all, he was still a wanted convict who had fled from the empire Deiferus 4 years ago and had already started a new life here in Arcadina.
But who would"ve known that after all that running, he would still be captured by some random idiot?
He was totally unconvinced about his whole situation!
And what made him angry all the more, was that they had just ganged up on him... therefore depriving him of the chance for a fair one-on-one battle.
Dammit!
If he had known that today would"ve turned out to be this way, then he wouldn"t have gone out at all!
He would have stayed in the lair and prepared to bring down these sn.o.bby p.r.i.c.ks.
"Bam!"
The prison cell door gave out a loud "bang" after he had been shoved into the cell.
As the big boss, he was actually given a private cell while his confidants and men were all grouped and placed in several cells instead.
The door closed right in his face, and he quickly grabbed the iron bars and tried to talk some sense into the strange-looking men that had just shoved him into the cell.
"Boy, for your own good... as well as for the good of your own men, I suggest that You let me out now !!!"
"Yeah!
We can give you whatever you desire if you let us go!"
"That"s right!
Be it money, women, or even power, all that can become yours if you just open the cell doors now."
.
The leader and the other bandits continuously tried to persuade them as much as they could... but also, it was to no avail.
Because no matter what they did, the soldiers before them kept silent and acted as if they didn"t hear then at all.
What the h.e.l.l was wrong auth them?
Were they actually both deaf and dumb?
Of course some of the bandits felt like soon, the rest of their comrades who were still out on a mission would quickly come and rescue them later on.
And by then, they would definitely skin these b.l.o.o.d.y b.a.s.t.a.r.ds alive.
But unfortunately for them, none of their expectations were met.
Because not long after they held into their hopeful thoughts, several comrades of theirs were also brought in too.
Their faces grew paler as they saw this, as it now dawned upon them that they might actually be locked up here for a very long time if they didn"t think of a way out now.
Many of them weren"t originally from this region and had only settled here after their boss had picked them up from the streets.
Yes!... many of them had been local thieves and small-time criminals from all around Arcadina.
So they weren"t that mentally strong to maintain a calm face in their current situation.
What if they got locked up for 10 years or even forever?
Worst, what if they got tortured and killed later on?
Remembering their dead comrades whose dead bodies had been scattered around the lair, they couldn"t help but tremble slightly from fear.
If they didn"t get out now, then wouldn"t they also be in the same situation as well?
No!!
They had to escape!
Yes!
They had to leave now!!"
