Chapter 1318: Chapter 346: The Sole Master of Kakasong City (10,000 Words)

Seeing the fallen and dead guards, listening to Keith’s deep voice.

The remaining few guards had solemn expressions, filled with tension.

Several guards had long since drawn the guard longswords from their belts, their eyes scanning the dark forest flanking the carriage convoy.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

Thud thud~

Arrows occasionally shot out from the dark forest.

Blocked and cut down by the guards using their longswords.

Arrows thudded into the wooden carriage, emitting a deep sound as they embedded into the wood.

Sitting inside the carriage, Megan’s beautiful brow was furrowed, her body tightly pressed against the edge, concealing herself.

To avoid being hit by the shooting arrows...

However.

The convoy had not traveled more than a few dozen meters.

The sound of reining in horses, ’Whoa’, rang out from Keith and the guards.

Feeling the carriage slowing down, eventually coming to a halt.

Megan quickly shouted from inside the carriage.

"Keith, what’s happening?"

Keith, riding on his horse, stared straight ahead, responding.

"Lady Megan, we... we’ve been surrounded!"

Under Keith’s gaze, figures dressed in various robes emerged from the dark forest.

In their hands, some held long spears, others gripped longswords and scimitars, or shields in their left hand and axes in their right...

Although their weapons varied.

What was the same was the greed in their eyes for the carriage.

They were a greedy and brutal band of robbers!

Keith, still on horseback, spoke in a low voice to the guards behind him.

"Act when the moment is right."

"If anything happens, give all you have to get Lady Megan back to Kakasong City!"

The guards’ expressions remained stern as they responded.

"Yes, Captain Keith."

As soon as Keith finished speaking.

The carriage door behind them creaked open.

Keith’s heart was slightly startled, gripping his weapon tightly as he quickly looked over.

Upon seeing the ample-skirted woman stepping out, Keith’s heart relaxed a bit.

Keith had feared that robbers had snuck close to the carriage, intending harm against Lady Megan inside.

Watching Megan step out.

Keith glanced at the dozen robbers standing nearby, quickly dismounted and moved swiftly to Megan’s side.

"Lady Megan, it’s too dangerous outside the carriage, please return inside."

Megan looked directly at Keith and continued walking toward the front of the convoy.

Watching Megan’s back, Keith hesitated to speak and then followed along.

Arriving at the front of the convoy, Megan stopped her steps.

Looking at the eyes full of greed and desire.

Scanning her body, more than one had swallowed unconsciously, but Megan didn’t care.

Megan drew in a deep breath and loudly proclaimed.

"I am Megan Edwin, a Free Noble of Kakasong City, here to seek my brother Gol Krueger."

"Quickly inform him, Megan has a big deal to discuss cooperation."

Standing next to Megan, Keith narrowed his eyes without saying a word.

This, it turned out, was where the Furious Giant Bear Mercenary Corps’ camp was located.

On the border between Kakasong City and Green Shade City—Cyan Fern Valley!

These voices weren’t from robbers.

But members of the Furious Giant Bear Mercenary Corps!

Keith thought to himself, sounding nice they’re called Mercenary Corps members, unkindly they’re robbers!

After Megan finished speaking, the dozens of armed men remained unmoving.

Continuing to close the encirclement, approaching Megan’s carriage convoy...

"Stop!"

A loud shout echoed from the dark forest.

Megan, Keith, and the mercenary corps members turned to look towards the sound.

Only to see a middle-aged man leading some torch-bearing followers, striding over.

The mercenary corps members saw this and tensed up, quickly and respectfully shouting.

"Captain Quid..."

Hearing the respectful calls.

The man known as Quid paid no heed.

He passed through the crowd before coming to Megan.

Just like the mercenary corps members, Quid’s eyes scanned Megan from top to bottom.

Especially at the alluring curve of her figure, Quid’s eyebrows slightly raised.

The burly Keith immediately stepped forward intending to protect Megan, but was stopped by Megan’s hand gesture.

Quid glanced at Keith, then back at Megan, calmly saying.

"Leader Gol, invites you!"

Before Megan could respond, Quid turned and headed into the dark forest ahead.

Megan hesitated for two seconds and then spoke.

"Keith, follow me, the rest stay with the carriage and wait here."

Having said that.

Megan brought Keith along, followed Quid into the dark forest ahead.

As she walked, Megan’s eyes scanned her surroundings.

Despite the appearance of the Captain known as Quid.

The mercenary corps members’ eyes still couldn’t hide their greedy desire for her body.

In the torchlight of Quid’s followers.

Megan and Keith walked along the rugged stone path, moving through a forest...

At first shrouded in darkness, the road ahead suddenly became bright and wide.

On either side of the road, every few dozen meters there was a blazing furnace.

Beside the furnace, there were groups warming by the fire.
