MTL - Another World Sandbox Gamer-Chapter 50 become hostage
"Who can be this third party? Who is willing to stand up for our sea clan?" Brandon asked in confusion.
Ren suggested himself and patted his chest: "Here is the best candidate! In Storm City, I am a human being who has a friendly relationship with you; in front of you, I happened to know those aristocratic eldest ladies. It belongs to Storm City, and then both sides can talk. Why don't I go to Storm City on behalf of the Sea Clan to convey your request to the other party!"
Brandon was a little worried: "Lord Ren, you are willing to come forward, we are very grateful! You are the benefactor of Her Royal Highness, and we all believe in you! But let you speak to Storm City on behalf of the sea clan, in case the other party's attitude Resolute, not only refused to negotiate but harmed you, this is an unacceptable result!"
"General Brandon, you are worrying too much!" Ren smiled, "I am just a little person without a sense of existence in Storm City, and those nobles will not embarrass me. In fact, I am selfish, and I want to take this matter with the five The family has a good relationship in order to gain a foothold. I want to live a stable life here and solve the disputes between the sea clan and human beings, so as to avoid being affected by the war.”
"What are your plans?" Brandon asked.
"It's very simple! If those noble ladies are caught by you, I will stand up as a friend and speak for them. I will take one of them and go to Storm City together. It's better to be Charlotte, the Jimenez family. The highest and the heaviest, if you let her go, the other party will believe in the sincerity of the sea clan, and the negotiation is relatively easy; if they have already escaped, they can also choose the most important one from the arrested accompanying protectors, and I will take them away. And catch up with them, I can convince these noble ladies to meet their parents." Ren replied, "In short, I can start with them and try not to let the negotiation get out of control!"
"Your Excellency Ren," Brandon nodded in agreement after thinking carefully, "Then I'll trouble you! How do we need to cooperate, even if you tell me!"
Towards the north of the town, Charlotte's team encountered more fleeing civilians along the way and ran for their lives together.
Running near the exit, a large number of sea soldiers appeared in front.
Seeing this, the protectors accompanying the five families rushed forward to fight the soldiers of the sea tribe, trying to create an opportunity to help Charlotte and the others escape.
But there are too many opponents, even if Charlotte and others join the battle, they can't resist.
There were also a large number of civilians in the team dragging their feet, causing Charlotte, Kristen, Carla, Linda, and Monica to miss and be captured.
Everyone was escorted back to the town by the soldiers of the sea tribe and concentrated in the square area. The water element casted magic and created a huge water prison to trap people.
The water prison is surrounded by sea soldiers, densely packed, guarding every direction, and water elements patrolling back and forth.
None of the civilians, passing traders, travelers, adventurers, and even human soldiers in the town escaped. The water prison was full of people, and everyone had anxiety on their faces.
This attack came too suddenly, and it was launched late at night, so I couldn't react at all.
The arrested protectors of the five major families gathered around Charlotte's team to protect the young ladies and prevent anyone from approaching.
But in fact, everyone in the water prison was imprisoned, unable to use magic and combat skills.
The noble ladies headed by Charlotte were also very flustered. It was the first time they encountered such a thing. They were respected wherever they went before, who would dare to provoke them? I didn't expect to be a prisoner of the sea clan, and I didn't know what the other party was going to do. I remembered that the sea clan had been attacking humans recently, and the relationship between the two races was very poor, and I was panicked about what they might face.
At this moment, I'm not in the mood to investigate how these clansmen appeared. In fact, if you think about it, you can know that it must be because the family is worried and sent them to protect them secretly.
They were very quiet, because the accompanying protector whispered to remind the young ladies not to reveal their identities for the time being. Although I don't know the reason why the sea clan attacked Glory Town, revealing their identities will bring trouble to several young ladies.
In the water prison, many townspeople and adventurers shouted to the sea soldiers outside, hoping to be released.
The sea soldiers completely ignored them, as if they couldn't hear these voices.
"Ren isn't here, did he escape?" Kara kept looking around, searching for Ren.
"Shh~" Christine grabbed her and made a silent gesture.
After a while, the general of the sea clan appeared outside the water prison, it was Brandon.
All the sea soldiers lined up to greet him and retreated to both sides, making him walk directly to the front of the water prison.
Brandon appeared, and the water prison fell silent.
He glanced back and forth, and said loudly: "Residents of Glory Town, I am the Sea Clan Guard General Brandon! This town has been controlled by our side, and you are all hostages!"
"Damn sea clan! We have been non-interfering with each other and have friendly exchanges. Why did we suddenly start a war?" Among the crowd, the mayor stood up and asked loudly, "What do you want to do?"
"Good question!" Brandon looked at the mayor and replied solemnly, "Our sea clan and human beings have always been non-interfering with each other and have friendly exchanges. Many fishermen went out to sea and were rescued by our sea clan. Send it back to the shore. You don’t remember these things! What do we want to do? Among you humans, some evil nobles have arrested my clan, and even deceived our princess. Fortunately, the princess was rescued by us, but there are still many clansmen lost. Dignity, your nobles keep them as pets in the fish tank for people to watch! We just want to save the Hui people! This is not a war, the Hai people don't want to be enemies with humans, we just want to exchange hostages, as long as you cooperate well, everyone can No harm will be done!"
After listening to him, there was an uproar inside the water prison.
The five of Charlotte also stared at each other with wide eyes, thinking of the rumors they heard from Ren before.
"How is that possible? It must be your excuse!" The mayor said anxiously, "No one in Storm City would do such an outrageous thing!"
Brandon snorted softly: "When my clan is sent back, I won't allow you to believe it! Besides, what does it have to do with me if you believe it or not?"
The mayor was at a loss for words.
I didn't expect the rumors to be true. It seems that Baron Andrew has nothing to do with this matter! Not only the princess of the sea clan, but more people of the sea clan were arrested? No wonder the other side kept attacking the human coastal areas, and even attacked the town of Glory!
Charlotte made eye contact and said in her heart that as long as she didn't reveal her identity, there should be no problem.
The family will definitely find a way to rescue, as long as you protect yourself and wait patiently, you will be fine!
Just thinking about it, I heard someone shouting to the Hai Clan: "What's the use of you arresting us? Those noble gentlemen don't care at all, let alone compromise with you!"
"No! They will compromise." Brandon pointed to where Charlotte and others were, "because we have very important hostages!"
