Chapter 15: attacked

Backing back to the dormitory, lying on the bed, Sean always felt a little distracted. He could fall asleep easily, but today he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep no matter what.

The boy who stared at him coldly was none other than Benson who was defeated by him half a month ago.

Since he was defeated by him, Benson has restrained himself a lot and never provoked him face to face again. Whenever he saw him, he would hide as much as he could.

Originally, he thought that the other party had given up on dealing with him, but from the way the other party looked at him today, he felt that the other party did not give up, but just buried this thought deeply in his heart. Vipers in the dark.

When he was at the gate of the academy, the other party stared at the old butler Pound for a long time with malicious intent, and this was also the reason why he was always restless, always feeling that something bad would happen.

"No, you must go and see!"

Finally, Sean jumped up and ran straight to the outside of the academy.

There is no class in the afternoon. Originally, he wanted to practice independently, but Benson's gaze made him really uneasy, so he decided to go to the hotel where Campbell's firm often stayed.

Although this will delay half a day of training time, he thinks it is worth it, so let's take it as a half day off for himself.

A few miles away from the capital, eight carriages moved forward slowly, surrounded by more than 20 men dressed as guards.

Walking in the front is a 70% new covered carriage, while the ones behind are all carts.

At this time, in the covered carriage, an old man frowned slightly. It was Pound, the old housekeeper of the Campbell family.

When he met Sean this time, he felt that Sean had changed a lot. Although he still spoke in the usual tone, the invisible temperament had changed. Could it be that he watched Sean grow up? You will notice this change in temperament.

However, he felt very good about this change, even very satisfied.

The previous Sean always gave people a feeling of lack of self-confidence, but the current Sean gives people a strong sense of self-confidence.

There is no doubt that the current Sean is more suitable to be the future head of the Campbell family, and he is naturally very pleased about this.

However, there was one thing that concerned him very much. When Sean heard the violent conflict between Campbell's firm and Adams' firm, his expression was obviously different. Although the other party quickly returned to normal, with his experienced eyes, how could he can not tell.

"Could it be that the Adams firm secretly made a move on Master Sean?"

Thinking of this, a stern look flashed in the old man's eyes. It's fine if there is no such thing. If it is found out that there is such a thing, even if he fights to pieces, he will definitely want Adams to look good.

Suddenly, the carriage he was riding in slammed on the brakes, causing him to sway forward involuntarily, and this kind of contemplation was interrupted, he couldn't help frowning, and opened the curtain to ask.

"What's the matter?"

"Steward Pound, someone is blocking our way."

The driver was a young man, his face was pale.

"Blocked the way?"

The old man raised his head and looked forward in doubt, his expression changed suddenly, and he shouted.

"Protect the Cargo."

In front of his line of sight, more than forty strong men with weapons appeared.

They held different weapons, including knives, swords, axes, and even hammers. It looked quite messy, but the old man didn't dare to underestimate such people, because he felt a strong murderous aura from these people. Obviously, these people are by no means easy to get along with.

"What do you mean, Your Excellency? Why are you blocking our way?"

At the forefront of these forty people was a tall man in gray leather armor holding a two-handed sword.

Seeing this man, the fear in the old man's heart became more and more intense, because from the man, he felt a real murderous aura. Obviously, this man must have killed many people.

"I want to ask you for some money."

Facing the old man's question, the man calmly looked at the old man playfully and said.

Hearing what the other party said, the old man's heart sank, but he still said calmly.

"Your Excellency, you are joking. We are just doing small businesses. How can we have any money? This is all our belongings, so we should honor you all."

Immediately, he took out a cloth bag from his arms and threw it to the leading man.

The man took the cloth bag and poured it out into the palm of his hand. He said that there were only seven silver coins, and his expression turned cold.

"That's all?"

"Your Excellency, I'm just a hauler. What money can I have? This is already all our belongings."

The old man said with a smile.

"Oh, really? But how did I hear that you brought a lot of money?"

The corner of the man's mouth curled up and he said coldly.

"The little old man is running a small business, with such a small amount of money, how can there be more? I'm afraid the person who said it was wrong."

The old man's heart skipped a beat, the secret passage was not good, obviously this was not a simple highway robbery.

"Is there any money left? I'll find out after I search."

As he spoke, the man led more than forty people behind him and forced him towards the carriage.

Seeing these people approaching, the guards of Campbell's firm, who had already stepped forward to confront them, but were afraid of the number of the opponents and did not dare to take the lead, changed their expressions, and couldn't help tightening their weapons.

"What, do you want to do it?"

The leading man glanced coldly at the guards of Campbell's family who were holding weapons, his eyes were cold.

"Your Excellency really won't let us go?"

The old man said angrily.

He could see that even if he taught all the money, the other party would not let them go. Obviously, the other party came directly to Campbell Firm.

"Do it."

The man ignored him at all, and directly made a hands-on gesture. The dozen or so people behind him rushed out, like a pack of wolves, pounced on the old man and the twenty-odd Campbell firm guards.

When Sean sensed the hotel that Campbell & Company frequented, he found that Butler Pound and the others had left for more than an hour. There is no doubt that after returning to the hotel from Neo Knight Academy, Butler Pound and the others had already set off. Set off.

The bad premonition in his heart became stronger, Xiao En immediately rented a nearby horse, left the capital, and chased wildly along the commercial road to Asai City.

After chasing for a few miles, he suddenly heard the sound of weapons colliding and screams coming from the front, his expression changed immediately, he clamped the horse's belly hard, and quickly drove the horse over.

While running, Xiao En showed a trace of worry on his face.

Just by hearing the sound of weapons colliding and screams from a distance, one can guess that the battle ahead is very fierce.

Based on the estimated route and time, he was almost certain that the party fighting ahead was the Campbell caravan.

Although he doesn't have any sense of belonging to the Campbell's family, one thing is true. He still can't leave the Campbell's family. Among other things, the annual tuition and living expenses are a huge expense that he can't solve by himself. In this case, he naturally does not want Campbell's firm to suffer.
