I Become a Landlady in the Game World

"Will the Professionals really escort us?" a resident couldn't help but ask.

After all, to them ordinary people, Professionals were seen as too lofty, always looking down on them.

How could they believe them?

"They want to join Hope Village, they must follow the rules of Hope Village," Brooke said emphatically, "Hope Village's soldier team will be covering your retreat, and they're no exception. At this point, do you still not trust me?"

"Yes, we trust you."

We've come this far, there's no turning back now.

Watching their reaction, Brooke continued, "Then you all need to calm your teams down. The closer it gets to the time, the more we can't afford to be in disarray."

While Brooke was comforting these residents, Watt and Ellis saw that it was about time, so they also began to withdraw.

And not long after they had left, night had completely fallen.

Although many shops were still open, the entire territory had quieted down.

Many neighboring merchants couldn't help but gather together and whisper to each other.

"Why does it feel like the territory has suddenly gotten a lot quieter?"

"Right! Usually, the streets get more lively after dark."

"Exactly, and today the Mercenary Team from Hope Village collected a lot of wood and Stone, lots of Residents went out, they should have plenty of money, with money, why wouldn't they buy things!"

"Perhaps they went out of the territory to sell and haven't come back yet, didn't they say that Hope Village's Mercenary Team set up stalls outside the gate?"

"They haven't left, those residents might gather some more and then sell it."

"Then let's wait a bit longer!"

"Yes."

Just as many merchants reached a consensus, they suddenly saw several teams appear on the main road.

Instantly, the attention of the merchants was drawn away.

"Look, mercenaries from the Mercenary Teams, this late, are they planning to leave?"

"Can they leave? The territory has stricter requirements for their departure than for residents."

"But it's not just one or two Mercenary Teams, there are several!"

"The ones leading are the Frost Mercenary Team and the Phantom Mercenary Team, these two teams are not weak."

"Maybe they took on a last-minute task!"

"Probably."

"But what kind of task requires so many teams, does the Lord know?"

"..."

The conversation reached this point, and everyone fell silent.

Talking further would be a bit sensitive.

"They won't find it so easy to leave the territory, there are soldiers at the gate!" Suddenly, someone said.

"Right, right, let's just mind our own business!"

In an instant, the merchants dispersed.

Among the merchants, some realized that something was wrong and prepared to report immediately, while others followed suit.

With so many Professionals, if they tried to break through the gate, who knew if the guarding Soldiers could hold them back.

If they were allowed to leave, it could spell trouble for Barnes Village.

And the topic of their conversation, Maimaiti from the Frost Mercenary Team and Lucian from the Phantom Mercenary Team were rushing to the city gate with all their might.

Their residences were very close, and once they made a move, they almost immediately noticed each other's actions.

Without saying much, they set off together.

After all, they both had partnerships with Hope Village, encountering the Barnes Village soldier team in the process they had some work entanglements, over time they became aware of each other's intentions.

With a shared purpose, they could collaborate.

With each pushing their limits,

They quickly reached the city gate.

Without much ado, one by one, the Mercenary Teams simply broke through.

The guarding Soldiers were caught "off-guard," and as they reacted and immediately tried to "intercept," but before they could begin, they were blasted away.

And then, one by one, the teams filed out.

"Boom boom boom~"

The next moment, the sound of war drums arose above the city walls and spread throughout the entire territory.

Viscount Robin, who was soaking in the manor's bath, tensed up immediately upon hearing these war drums.

What's happened?

He quickly opened the panel to check the status of his territory.

Seeing countless crowds gathering outside the city gate, his expression changed slightly.

All these dense green dots, by his estimation, reached at least two thousand people.

What are so many people doing outside!

Without time to ponder, he shot up from the bathtub, dressed, and rushed out.

At that moment, Foster stumbled into the manor from outside.
