our family is gone

Chapter 10 Mercenary Boss
Under the leadership of Susan, Lance identified the next target, a drunken gangster.

Lance cut the gangster's throat with a dagger, and blood gushed out. No matter how much he resisted, he could only turn into a corpse in the end.

Raising his hand to sacrifice it, Lance looked at the blood stained on his hands but didn't feel much. He picked up the clothes on the ground and wiped off the blood on his hands, then threw it away.

In this world, if you don't adapt, you will be ruthlessly abandoned.

Among the more than 30 sheriffs, all the gangsters have been eliminated, and the rest are those mercenaries.

"The next one is the boss of these mercenaries. He has the armor and weapons he snatched from the veterans. Be careful."

They picked soft persimmons before, but at this time they went in the opposite direction and went directly to the leader who seemed to be the strongest among these mercenaries.

Lance will not despise mercenaries just because they harvested some miscellaneous fish and gangsters. These people live and die all year round. Although they can't compare with Disma and Leonard, there must be something to survive. Those punks are not comparable.

But these same people will only be frightened when they experience the bandit invasion. As long as they take down the strongest one, even if their actions expose the remaining mercenaries, they will definitely not dare to attack him. This is their nature.

If you start with other mercenaries, once he escapes, the remaining mercenaries will unite with the boss, and your own plan will also be hindered.

Lance knew he was taking a risk, but he believed that their strength could bring him victory.

In order to gain the support of the mercenary leader, the mayor specially gave him a house made of masonry. When Lance and the others came over, they heard the woman screaming and wailing violently.

"This person has a perverted habit. Although he is tall and strong, he is short and weak. He can only feel pleasure by abusing others. And these days, three women have died in his hands."

These words came out of Susan's mouth, and Lance could feel the resentment in her words, and couldn't help but close his eyes slightly.

"Go!"

Disma had been struggling on the bottom floor for many years, but this kind of door lock couldn't stop him at all, so he opened the door easily, and the few of them followed the sound.

It has to be said that the woman's wailing and the leader's wild laughter just covered up the movement of them approaching the past, even if they had already reached the door of the room, the leader did not respond.

At this point, there is no choice to back down, Lance and the two looked at each other and whispered.

"He is still useful to me, try not to kill him."

Leonard raised his sword and kicked open the door first, then rushed in, followed by Disma with a short sword in one hand and a short gun in one hand.

Lance raised his hand to stop Susan from going in, and took a slow step before entering the room after hearing the woman's screams and confusion from inside.

The small room was suddenly crowded with several people. Lance could only see a plump man with a riding whip in his hand to barely block Leonard's slashing, and a naked man on the other side of the room. The woman was tied to a wooden frame, and the scars of whipping could be seen all over her body.

And just when Lance was distracted, Leonard's long sword cut off the whip and chopped it on the leader's shoulder.

It has to be said that his fat body is not in vain, and he even carried it off with a roar and hugged him. If he hugged him firmly, he might really hug him to death.

It's a pity that Leonard's skills honed on the battlefield are even more exquisite. He lowered his hands and held the long sword in front of him and then pressed forward. In Lance's view, the action of the leader hugging him was more like sending his neck to the edge of the sword.

The boss is also aware of this, but he is also a ruthless person, he knows that if he distances himself from it, he will surely die, and now he has a way to survive, so he reached out and grabbed the blade of the sword and pushed it away, and at the same time, the sharp blade directly cut him. The palm of his hand, if he didn't put it down so fast, I'm afraid his fingers would be cut off.

But his action worked, the neck avoided the blade, and Leonard was within the range of his hands, and the leader was confident that his strength would be difficult even for armor.

But some things are often relative, so why didn't he enter Leonard's attack range.

I saw Leonard suddenly raised his hand, and at the same time leaned his sword back, the long sword in his hand was unhindered in the narrow room, the hilt of the two-handed sword that was hidden was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, and hit the leader fiercely in an instant Above the chin, he hit him backwards and fell to the ground.

The big taboo on the battlefield is to give the enemy a chance to breathe. Leonard would not make such a mistake. He went up and used the hilt of his sword to make up for it twice, completely knocking him unconscious, and he did not forget to press the long sword on his neck. If the boss moves a little bit, he will be confused.

If the leader is equipped with all the equipment, he may still be able to fight, but facing Leonard now is a dead end. If Lance wants to keep him, he may still be useful, and he may have already been killed by a sword.

Disma rushed in excitedly and wanted to have a big fight, but the place was too small and the boss was forced into a corner, so he couldn't get through. He could only watch Leonard pick peaches.

"Don't worry, it's still growing tonight." Lance comforted him and came to the woman tied to the shelf, "Come and help."

The two untied the woman to the side of the bed. There was not a single piece of intact skin all over her body. There were bloodstains from the whipping and bruises from blunt instruments.

"It's really not human." Disma couldn't help but cursed when he saw the scars on the woman's body.

The woman looked at the few people who broke in, her face was full of fear, and her first reaction after being rescued was to curl up on the bed and shiver.

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people." Lance didn't mean to waste too much energy on her, and after leaving a word, he came to the leader, and the three of them dragged him up and tied him to the wooden frame together.

The props he used to torture others have now become his own shackles.

Lance checked, the horsewhip blocked most of the force, the injury on his shoulder was not serious, as for the injury on his hand.

After the subdued, Susan, who was outside, also came up, and seeing this scene, she couldn't help questioning:
"Why didn't you kill him?"

"Don't you think it's too cheap to just kill him?" Lance sneered.

Not only did he want to kill people, but he also wanted to punish his heart. He wanted to use this scumbag's life to establish his authority.

Susan was silent, but although she was puzzled, she still chose to obey.

"You take care of her."

Throwing the woman to Susan, Lance took Disma to search the house.

A set of armor was quickly found along with a mace and a shield, which should be the equipment of the veteran.
