Even if Crosac wanted to take on Jagoan and the rest, they would not use such a crude and reckless approach.
“Speed up. We’ll be safe once we reach Crosac’s perimeter!” Jagoan said to Jagoan and the other city defense soldiers.
The city defense soldiers picked up speed, pressuring their horses to go faster. The five military jeeps roared as they accelerated. Even so, they failed to shake off the enemy behind them.
As time went on, the distance between the two became closer. They were less than 100 meters away from each other.
Just then, a sharp arrow flew over suddenly!
Seeing a city defense soldier about to be shot in the shoulder, Jagoan drew his sword. As the silver sword gleamed, Jagoan chopped off the arrow. However, more arrows came flying.
“Pay attention to defense. Don’t get shot!” Jagoan commanded loudly.
Shania in the car was pale with fear. She had never dreamed that she would be ambushed halfway to Crosac.
What the h*ll was going on?
Was there a third party trying to cause a misunderstanding and push Dorodo into fighting Crosac?
Or did someone from Crosac use their status as a stray mercenary regiment to attack Jagoan and Jagoan, who brought down Black Gold Flower Mercenary Regiment?
It would be more dangerous if it were the latter. However, the former seemed more likely for now.
“Don’t worry, Miss. l’ll protect you!” Uriah said solemnly to Shania.
The enemy behind was getting closer. If it went on, they would be overtaken sooner or later.
There was a forked road ahead. They all led to Crosac but were of varying lengths, and one of them would take you on a long detour.
After some hesitation, Jagoan ordered, “Uriah, protect Ms. Lewis alongside her personal guards and take a shortcut to Crosac!”
Uriah was shocked to hear Jagoan‘s statement.
He did not expect Jagoan to use himself, Jagoan, and ten city defense soldiers as bait to attract the enemy from pursuing them so that he could escape with Shania.
