Chapter 385: Impossible
The news of Wood City’s recovery quickly spread throughout the major cities in the western region.
In less than ten days, the Orc Army in the western region had been completely compressed. The army that appeared out of thin air carried out a real purge of the entire western region with unimaginable power.
When this news spread to Thunder City, it had already gone through continuous fermentation. That army had also been turned into an invincible army by myths.
“Have you heard? That army has taken over more than ten of our western region’s main cities in a row in a dozen days, and the orcs have been completely defeated!”
“We have been abandoned by those higher-ups in the Imperial Capital. They probably never imagined that at the crucial moment, it was actually the Northland Humans who had been looked down upon by us who had lent us a helping hand.”
“I don’t think things are that simple. After the orcs are expelled, they will probably become our new enemies!” someone questioned.
“Bullsh*t! After that army rushed to the major cities, they didn’t leave a single soldier in the major cities, and they didn’t interfere with the governance of the major cities. What right do you have to say that they will harm us humans!?” a girl screamed.
“And I heard that the king of the Allied Army of the Northland Humans and Elves comes from our Southern Human race!” a girl whispered.
Immediately, the surrounding people were astonished.
“Is it fake?! This is too ridiculous! who else could subdue the two great races of the Northland!?”
“This is the news from the City Lord of Wood City. How could it be fake!?” The girl turned her head and said to a beautiful girl, “What do you think?”
In a corner of the hall, a girl in a light yellow dress looked out of the window at the sky. It was the north!
No matter which angle she looked from, she looked like a painting.
In her own thoughts, she didn’t hear her companion’s voice.
“Brother! When will you come back? I really miss you…” She was Su Han’s sister.
Ever since the fall of Saint Laurent City, the Saint Laurent Academy had followed the fleeing crowd to Thunder City.
The people present were all teachers and students of Saint Laurent City who had survived the disaster.
Many boys were intentionally or unintentionally looking at Su Han’s younger sister. Ever since the incident in Saint Laurent City, this girl had suddenly awakened some kind of power, and her entire person had become even more beautiful and moving.
They knew that all the boys in Saint Laurent Academy had a good impression of this girl and adored her. On one hand, it was her beautiful appearance, but most of all, it was her kind heart and tolerance towards others.
“I heard that Su Han left Saint Laurent City before the war broke out.” One of the boys said, “He hasn’t returned yet. Maybe something really happened…”
No one present had seen the appearance of the man named Su Han.
However, when they thought about how he could make a girl miss him so much, their hearts were filled with envy.
At this moment, a burst of noise suddenly came from outside the door.
“Who is making noise outside the door?” A teacher frowned.
He opened the door and saw that the open space outside the door was already filled with people from Saint Laurent City. On the other side of the crowd, there were fully armed soldiers from Thunder City.
The faces of the people from Saint Laurent City were filled with anger.
“What do you mean by this!?” The Dean of Saint Laurent Academy looked at the soldiers from Thunder City and said, “Now that there are orcs surrounding us, do you still want to stir up internal disputes?”
The soldiers from Thunder City slowly separated and saw a man in a luxurious robe walking out. It was obvious that he was a noble of Thunder City.
He looked at the Dean of Saint Laurent Academy indifferently and said, “I am a Baron of Thunder City. We suspect that a girl surnamed Su of your Saint Laurent Academy is colluding with foreign enemies. We have to take her with us!”
Hearing his words, the people around all revealed extremely angry expressions.
“Colluding with foreign enemies? You said that our academy has people colluding with foreign enemies? This is ridiculous!” The Dean of Saint Laurent Academy said angrily, “Do you know that when Saint Laurent City fell, if it wasn’t for that girl’s help, all of us would have been buried in the claws of the orcs? You actually said that she colluded with external enemies!”
The people of Saint Laurent City around all felt a wave of anger lingering in their chests. That kind of aggrieved feeling made them feel extremely angry.
The Baron said calmly, “So we need to further investigate. I have the approval of the City Lord. You’d better get out of my way. If you continue to obstruct our law enforcement team, I won’t be polite to you!”
The surrounding Thunder City soldiers immediately pulled out their swords.
Seeing this, the Saint Laurent City soldiers also picked up their weapons. The Dean of Saint Laurent City Academy said in a deep voice, “You don’t have any evidence. If you want to take away my student with a random accusation, then you’ll have to ask whether the sword in my hand will agree or not!”
Both sides were at daggers drawn in an instant.
The Baron narrowed his eyes. He said, “You better understand your own situation. You are living under someone else’s roof. If it wasn’t for Thunder City’s pity and opening the city gates to you, you would have been torn to pieces by the orcs. I think it’s best for you to behave yourselves. Otherwise, my soldiers will have the right to expel you!”
“You!” The Dean of Saint Laurent City Academy’s eyes were about to burst.
At this moment, a girl’s voice suddenly came from the door.
“Grandpa Dean!”
The crowd turned around and saw a girl wearing a light yellow dress slowly walking out under the escort of the students. It was Su Han’s sister.
Although she was still young, when the soldiers of Thunder City saw her for the first time, they felt their hearts beat.
When such a girl grew up, she would definitely be the kind of goddess who could topple kingdoms and cities with a smile.
As long as they thought that such a girl might become the exclusive property of some noble in the future, they would feel uncomfortable in the bottom of their hearts.
The Baron was also shocked by this girl’s temperament and appearance.
He was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said indifferently, “Your brother’s name is Su Han?”
Su Yu looked at him and said, “That’s right!”
The Baron said, “We suspect that you are colluding with external enemies. I think it’s best that you come with us. But don’t worry, before the matter is investigated clearly, we won’t do anything to you!”
The surrounding people were all enraged. They surrounded Su Yu and said, “No! You absolutely can’t go with them! Those nobles used groundless crimes to detain you. Clearly, they have ulterior motives! If you go with them, the consequences are unimaginable!”
“Don’t worry, all of us in Saint Laurent City were saved by you. Even if we risk our lives, we will definitely protect you! If they want to take you away by force, we will fight them with our lives!”
