I Become a Landlady in the Game World

"Do you still have hope for such a territory, for such a Lord? Forget it! Leave quickly! Otherwise, you'll soon become cannon fodder."

"Now the fighting strength of the territory is insufficient; hurry up and pack your bags and run! They can't take care of everything!"

"And those in the soldier team, just like you—so many soldiers have already run. Don't you understand? Continuing as soldiers has no benefits anymore. Once we leave, you'll be cannon fodder, and you won't live for more than an hour on average because once you enter combat, you'll surely die."

"Stop serving such a territory. Run like us!"

"..."

While these words were spoken, the Mercenary Team on the scene took various weapons and headed towards the city gate.

Indeed, they were ready to flee, abandoning everything in Barnes Village.

After all, with their skills, they could easily find another village and recover what they had lost today.

Due to their actions, the scene became completely chaotic.

Some professionals instinctively followed them and ran.

After all, there were many single professionals who carried their possessions with them.

It was also possible to make a spur-of-the-moment decision to run.

As for the houses in Barnes Village, what use were they if a whole territory was going to collapse?

Taking this opportunity, run!

And ordinary people became even more panicked in a flash.

Most of them were very weak in combat, so when such turmoil occurred in the territory, they seemed to only be able to go with the flow.

Some people immediately distanced themselves from the combat area, while others gritted their teeth but still followed behind the team of professionals.

They had missed the last chance to leave Barnes Village.

This time, they didn't want to miss it again.

Moreover, with the atmosphere on the scene being so intense, the number of people choosing to flee kept increasing.

Even some of the soldiers who had just been commanded were a bit at a loss at this moment.

God, to chase or not to chase?

And, to run or not to run?

"Chase first!" At this moment, someone in the soldier team quietly muttered to a companion beside them.

Let's chase first and see.

Later, whether to start fighting while chasing or run away with them would depend on how the situation evolved.

If this group of professionals could successfully break out of Barnes Village, then following them to leave would be a good choice.

Indeed, if a group of professionals could escape the territory, how could such a territory withstand an invasion from a territory in its golden age?

Thus, the whole scene turned into chaos, and what Viscount Robin saw was his residents betraying him once more.

In an instant, his eyes turned red.

The first time there was a defection, he wasn't there and couldn't do anything.

But now, he could!

"Issue the order—defend the city gate at all costs. Anyone who flees the territory, kill without mercy."

"Now, archers, fire!"

The two orders slipped out before Foster beside him could intervene.

He knew very well that once this command was issued, the Lord could never turn back.

His lips moved, but he ultimately remained silent, knowing that speaking in such a moment of anger was suicide.

He only hoped then that the Lord could maintain his composure after this killing.

And that the residents could be intimidated by this show of force and choose to surrender when left with no option.

However, at this moment, Foster still underestimated everyone's resolve.

Hearing this, the only thought left in everyone's mind was—

Run, run quickly.

Their Lord had gone mad!

They had once heard of some Territory Lords who used their slaves for sport, hunting them like animals in the fields.

After hearing this, they pitied the dire fates of those slaves but never imagined that such a fate could one day befall them.

Such a territory was absolutely no place to stay.

Many residents thought this and immediately ran.

They didn't dare to run in obvious directions or draw attention from the archers by running openly; they could only run into the side streets and then leave under the cover of the shops.

This also left them a way out, in case they couldn't make it; they could still remain in Barnes Village.

After all, preserving their life was more important than anything.

And in reality, the professionals and mercenaries escaping the scene were not without their preparations.

Upon hearing Viscount Robin ordering the archers to shoot, many had already set up a small defense behind them.
