The Guardian's Sword

Chapter 1848

"What?" Sean was shocked as his expression turned shocked.

The City-State Union was in disarray with many stray mercenary regiments of all sizes. Some mercenary regiments

were too small to take on enough tasks to support themselves, so they sometimes partook in bandit raids.

Sean knew about these too, but he had no idea someone would be so bold as to raid Dorodo's town and kidnap the

poor residents!

"Why hasn't Quentin contacted me? Doesn't he..."

Before Sean could finish his sentence, the phone on the desk rang suddenly. Needless to say, it must be Quentin on

the phone.

Sean answered the phone immediately, and Quentin's voice came through the phone.

"Commander Lennon, I don't know if you've heard, but the poor people who went out to work in the fields through

the west city gate were arrested by a gang of..."

"I've heard of it. I'm preparing to deploy soldiers to exterminate all stray mercenary regiments... No, stray bandits

in the vicinity of Dorodo. I will also bring back all the poor people who have been captured," Sean said solemnly.

Quentin was relieved to hear Sean's promise but said, "Hurry, Commander Lennon. You must hurry! Those who

went out to work in the fields are basically women with no protection. The consequences would be unimaginable."

"I see. I'll hurry."

Sean hung up and ordered Zander to gather the city defense soldiers.

According to the information Zander had gathered, about 20 poor women were captured, and there were 40 to 50

stray bandits armed with weapons and fast horses.

The west city gate was now closed. With 200 city defense soldiers, Sean rode fast horses out of the east city gate

and searched the wilderness for traces of the stray bandits.

There were many horseshoe prints on the west of Dorodo.

Following these horseshoe prints, it would not be difficult to find the gang of bandits who had taken the poor

women.

"Come on. Let's go after them!" Sean ordered, waving his hand.

200 city defense soldiers followed Sean and Zander and galloped toward the direction the bandits had left.

Sean and the rest caught up with a stray mercenary regiment after about an hour.

The stray mercenary regiment was small-only more than 20 people. They were not the gang of bandits who had

taken the women.

Sean frowned and ignored the regiment, continuing the chase with city defense soldiers.

While chasing, Sean told Zander to take some beans out of a bag and sprinkled them on the ground.

These beans had been soaked in a special medicinal liquid that would exude a pungent smell for a long time.

The city defense army's specially trained hounds could pick up the pungent scent from afar.

"It's getting dark..." Zander said helplessly to Sean after looking up.

"No time to rest. Keep chasing! I don't believe I can't keep up with those damn b*stards!"

Sean rarely used profanity, but he could not help it this time. He was furious at the thought of the inhuman

treatment those poor women would have suffered at the hands of the bandits.

As the night darkened, Sean and his men saw several bright fires from afar.
