"Our diplomatic convoy was attacked on our way here. A mercenary regiment of at least 100 men ambushed us. To
protect the mayor's daughter, Ms. Shania, the city defense army's commander-in-chief-Sean, and the chiliarch-
Commander Zander, led their men to use themselves as bait to distract the mercenary regiment. It's how we got
here," Uriah said grimly and slowly.
"What... What about Mr. Lennon?" Lisha panicked as she hurriedly grabbed Uriah's arm and asked.
Uriah was mildly surprised that the woman in front of him would care so much about Sean's whereabouts.
Does she know Sean?
Shania rubbed her eyes as she stepped forward and said, "Mr. Lennon... Mr. Lennon... Mr. Lennon's probably.."
Shania could not continue speaking halfway through her sentence.
Uriah let out a long sigh and said, "100 mercenaries armed with weapons attacked us. Commander Lennon and
Commander Zander are probably.."

The team that was supposed to play music and welcome them lowered their heads slightly to mourn.
"How... How did this happen..." Lisha's voice trembled as she sobbed.
Flynn walked over and said, "I'm sorry for your loss, Miss."
Just then, a ceremonial team member suddenly shouted, "Look! Someone's coming!"
Hearing this, everyone looked up quickly.
Then they saw a dozen soldiers in military uniform riding over on horses. It was none other than Sean and Zander
leading them!
Sean was alive!
Not only was Sean alive, but Zander was also all right. None of the ten city defense soldiers and five personal
guards were dead either!
What was going on?
Hundreds of stray mercenaries ambushed them.
How did they survive?
Uriah watched in shock as Sean and others approached. His face was full of disbelief.
Shania's face reddened with excitement as her face was covered with tears.
Lisha covered her chest with both hands as if to soothe her frightened heart.
Flynn's face was full of disbelief.
Finally, Sean and the others arrived and dismounted.
"Ms. Lewis and Uriah, did you get pursued by mercenaries along the way?" Sean asked.
Shania shook her head vigorously before rubbing her eyes and saying, "No, thanks to you for distracting the
attackers. Otherwise, we'd be screwed... Mr. Lennon, how did you survive? What about the stray mercenary
regiment?"
Looking around, Sean smiled and replied, "We've killed the stray mercenary regiment."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as he said this, there was a deathly silence.
A stray mercenary regiment of more than 100 men was destroyed by Sean with a dozen men.
Was that a joke?
Even if a dozen men were to kill more than a hundred pigs, they could not finish killing them before their arms
tired.
Not to mention 100 armed mercenaries!
How did Sean do it with such a difference in numbers and strength?
Flynn immediately stepped forward and asked, "Commander Lennon, how did you kill that stray mercenary
regiment with your men? Please don't misunderstand. I don't mean to belittle you in any way, but the stray
mercenary regiment far outnumbers you. I can't imagine how you could turn the tables around and still keep all
your soldiers alive."
Flynn's question was one that everyone in this room wanted to ask.
Shania, Uriah, and Lisha looked to Sean for answers.
