Chapter 755 - 252: The Last Chance (10,000 Words) (Part 2)

In a small town with many residents, fires and fire alarms are normal occurrences.

But.

On their first day in Morgan Town, such a billowing fire broke out.

That is not right!

The most critical thing is, it’s early morning now!

At this time, everyone should have been asleep.

Soon.

Keith’s eyes sparkled.

He finally figured out the key issue!

He was invited by Frank Manor to guard the entire Morgan Town.

They were even willing to entrust the entire small town of thousands to his Blade Wind Corps.

From the beginning to the end.

Joao Frank never explained to him the reasons behind this!

Until now.

Keith finally understood.

Frank Manor has external enemies in Morgan Town!

To avoid dispersing the soldiers’ power in the manor, they let his Blade Wind Corps come to Morgan Town to guard it.

And this sudden fire must be related to enemies of Frank Manor!

Apart from this.

Keith couldn’t think of any other reason.

Soon, doubts appeared in Keith’s mind.

In the town, what is the purpose of causing such a fire?

To burn down the entire town?

To make his Blade Wind Corps and the thousands of townsmen perish together?

Or...

A bold idea emerged in Keith’s mind.

Is this the signal for their invasion of Morgan Town?

Hiss~

Thinking of this.

A sharp pain appeared in Keith’s temples.

He couldn’t help but shake his throbbing head.

Perhaps it’s due to excess with two women.

Or maybe it’s because of the lack of intelligence information.

He couldn’t predict or deduce further...

Keith looked at Wyatt beside him and said in a deep voice.

"Go wake up all the captains, I have orders to give."

Keeping Keith’s words firmly in mind, Wyatt responded: "Okay, bro, I’m on it!"

As the words fell.

Wyatt quickened his pace, running past Keith, heading for the staircase ahead.

With Wyatt’s incessant knocking and pounding on doors.

One by one, the captains of the Mercenary Corps released the women they were holding.

They hurriedly dressed, grabbed their weapons, and headed to the reception hall on the first floor.

A few minutes later.

Keith looked at the groggy-eyed captains of the Mercenary Corps, and Keith began issuing orders.

"Tolin, Stuart, and Suwa, you three lead a team to organize the townsmen to fight the fire."

Upon receiving Keith’s instructions, the three whose names were called quickly responded.

Then, they swiftly left the reception hall.

Keith’s gaze shifted to the other middle-aged men.

"Weilin, you lead a team to search for and capture the arsonists!"

"I want to see which faction’s spies are lurking in Morgan Town!"

Since Joao Frank refuses to inform him, he’ll find out himself.

As long as the spy is still in town, he’ll find them!

The middle-aged man Weilin responded with acknowledgment and also left the three-story building.

Keith’s gaze shifted again, looking at the remaining captains of the Mercenary Corps.

"Your task is to guard the entrances and exits of Morgan Town."

"Without my permission, no one is allowed to enter Morgan Town!"

As soon as his voice fell.

The captains of the Mercenary Corps responded in unison: "Yes, leader!"

When everyone left, only Keith and Wyatt remained in the reception hall.

Wyatt hesitated for a few seconds, then asked, "Bro, is there anything you need me to do?"

Keith turned and looked at him with some frustration and said.

"You think you can do anything other than chase women all day?"

Hearing Keith’s rather questioning words.

Wyatt’s face was full of grievance, muttering in a low voice: "I’m just learning from you..."

"Besides, I only have one woman in my bed, you have two..."

"And you picked the best-looking one..."

Keith’s face darkened, his questioning voice becoming louder.

"What did you say?"

Wyatt dared not say another word.

Keith snorted coldly, "Just follow me honestly, and don’t do anything else!"

With that said, Keith stepped out of the reception hall.

Wyatt followed closely behind.

However, just as Keith took Wyatt toward the fire scene in the town.

Urgent shouting rang out from afar.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Along with it was the urgent sound of gongs being struck.

Keith confirmed he hadn’t misheard, his expression changed dramatically, and he quickly looked in the direction of the noise.

He saw a cavalryman, riding on a horse, constantly striking the Iron Gong in his hand.

Clang clang clang~

The sharp and piercing sound echoed throughout Morgan Town.

The cavalryman dismounted quickly before Keith, reporting.

"Leader Keith, it’s bad, we’re under attack."

"A large cavalry unit has sneaked in under the cover of darkness!"

Seeing the frightened expression on the face of the messenger mercenary before him.

Keith frowned tightly, then asked.

"Cavalry? How many?"

The messenger mercenary spoke nervously, "Leader, it’s too dark to see clearly."

"But there must be many; one can see the hazy silhouettes everywhere!"

Keith said in a deep voice, "I understand."

"You, now ride to gather all the captains and members, meet at the town gate."

"I want to see what kind of force dares to raid my Blade Wind Corps’ garrisoned town at night!"

The messenger mercenary quickly responded, "Yes, leader, right away."

With that, the messenger mercenary rushed back onto his horse, riding towards the direction of the fire.
