"Our diplomatic convoy was attacked on our way here. A mercenary regiment of at least 100 men ambushed us. To protect the mayor's daughter—Ms. Shania, the city defense army's commander-in-chief—Sean, and the chiliarch—Commander Zander, led their men to use themselves as bait to distract the mercenary regiment. It's how we got here."Uriah said grimly and slowly."What... What about Mr. Lennon?"Lisha panicked as she hurridly grabbed Uriah's arm and asked.Uriah was mildly surprised that the woman in front of him would care so much about Sean's whereabouts.'Does she know Sean?'Shania rubbed her eyes as she stepped forward and said, "Mr. Lennon... Mr. Lennon... Mr. Lennon's probably..."Shania could not continue speaking halfway through her sentence.Uriah let out a long sigh and said, "100 mercenaries armed with weapons attacked us. Commander Lennon and Commander Zander are probably..."As if struck by lightning, Lisha was dumbstruck for a while.The team that was supposed t
Sean smiled and replied, "To put it bluntly, it's simple. Two words—guerrilla tactics.""Guerrilla tactics?"Flynn frowned slightly, thinking about the meaning of these words.Sean continued explaining. "Yeah, guerrilla tactics. If it's a head-on battle, my men and I are no match for more than 100 mercenaries. They could crush us in numbers alone. But inside the woods, the effectiveness of numbers will be limited. Instead, the flexibility of small units will be greatly enhanced and thus be more advantageous."Flynn had mostly figured it out at this point.That was it.Sean and his crew of a dozen men were no match for a mercenary regiment of more than 100 men when it was a head-on confrontation.However, Sean's small combat unit was able to fight flexibly because of the complex terrain and trees that hid them after they entered the woods.The mercenary regiment of 100 men could not take advantage of their numbers. Having too many men made it impossible to attack in unison. Thei
She wore a fitting pale purple long dress, a pale gray sun hat, and pale purple heels. The outfit made her seem mysterious and elegant."I didn't expect you to be the daughter of the mayor of Crosac."Sean said with a smile, greeting her.Sean and Zander had met earlier with Ms. Lisha on the plane to Crosac.Lisha wanted to switch seats with Sean, but he refused, so they got into a minor conflict.When the plane was in danger of crashing due to a cold current, Lisha's parachute pack had a problem, so Sean gave her his.Thankfully, the plane escaped the cold current and landed at Crosac Airport.Even so, Lisha excitedly thanked Sean and gave him her business card.Sean did not realize Lisha Crosac was the eldest daughter of the mayor of Crosac. It was only when he met her in Crosac again that he finally knew her true identity."I didn't expect you to be Dorodo's city defense commander-in-chief, Mr. Lennon."Lisha said with a smile before walking up to Sean."Are you going out
"Are you coming back tonight?"Shania asked first."Keep a distance from Ms. Lisha and don't create any diplomatic issues."Uriah said after some hesitation.Only Zander knew what Sean was like, so he said nothing.Sean frowned as he looked at Shania and Uriah. He did not expect these guys to say such things.He only accompanied Ms. Lisha to go shopping. Why did they think something was going to happen?When Sean's face darkened, Shania mischievously stuck out her tongue while Uriah looked away slightly awkwardly, pretending he had not said anything."I'll be back by eight."Sean said and headed outside.As soon as he stepped out of the door, Sean quickly stopped because Lisha had followed him to the door and waited for him at some point."Have you informed them?"Lisha asked, blushing slightly."Yeah, I did."Sean nodded."Then let's hurry out. It's getting late. It's already past noon."Lisha said somewhat eagerly.Without further ado, Sean followed Lisha toward the
"You speak English very well."Sean's praise excited Lisha."Of course, I love Dragon Kingdom. I often travel to Dragon Kingdom. The last time I visited Dragon Kingdom, I met you on the plane back."Lisha explained with a smile.Sean's first meeting with Lisha was indeed on the plane from Dragon Kingdom to Crosac.Zander was also there at the time, and it left an impression on Sean because of the accident."Yeah, indeed..."Sean nodded.Lisha said, "I gotta thank you for what happened on the plane last time. Mr. Lennon, you're such a nice guy!"Sean froze, never expecting Lisha to call him a nice guy.However, he then started laughing."I'm just a regular guy, not a nice guy."Sean chuckled and shook his head.Lisha's blue eyes blinked at Sean as she sized him up curiously. It was as if she wanted to find out what he was really like.They soon reached Central Square downtown.Lisha pulled into a parking lot beside Central Square, and she and Sean got out of the car and r
"What do you think? Does it look nice?"Lisha gently held the skirt and spun on the spot."It looks good."Sean said earnestly.He did not ask Lisha if she wanted it. He could tell the answer from her expression.Sean looked over his shoulder at the female sales assistant and asked, "How much is this dress?""900 Union Dollars."The female sales assistant replied with a smile."Do you accept Dragon Dollars?"Sean asked again.His bank cards were in Dragon Dollars, which he needed to convert if he used Union Dollars.The female sales assistant immediately nodded and said, "Of course, it's 1,350 dollars if you're paying in Dragon Dollars.""Okay, no problem."Sean was about to swipe his card, but Lisha walked over and looked disdainfully at the female sales assistant, saying, "The dress doesn't feel that good. Is it made out of poor material? Can you make it cheaper?"Sean was dumbfounded.The mayor's eldest daughter, Lisha Crosac, was bargaining with the female sales assi
He preferred a woman who was frugal and smart to a woman who was a big spender.Then Lisha and Sean continued to hang out elsewhere, passing several stores before moving on to a perfume shop.It seemed that Lisha was no stranger to the store. The middle-aged owner wiping the glass counter with a rag greeted her with a big smile as soon as they entered."Isn't this Ms. Lisha? What brings you here today..."The familiar greeting made Sean feel like he was in Dragon Kingdom.Not only Crosac, but most cities in the City-State Union also had a mix of City-State Union locals and Caucasians. Besides that, many cities had even greater numbers of Caucasians.Therefore, the place was full of Dragon Kingdom's culture. English was widely used. Eight out of ten people spoke fluent English.Even City-State Union's locals, who looked particularly foreign, could speak English."I took my friend downtown for a stroll and found ourselves here at some point."Lisha said with a smile."Oh, it wo
Mr. Royce's smile instantly froze."I'm kidding... How much is this perfume?"Lisha asked again, still smiling slightly.Afraid to speak randomly again, Mr. Royce quickly replied, "1,500 Dragon Dollars, Ms. Lisha.""Umm, I'll pay for it."With that said, Sean reached into his pocket to get his bank card.A few thousand dollars was nothing to him.However, Lisha had no idea of letting him pay this time. Instead, he said seriously, "You paid for the clothes just now. I will pay for myself now.""Uhh..."Sean had no idea if he should insist, yet Lisha had pulled her wallet out of her bag.Just then, a bell rang."You again?"Sean did not say that.A man and a woman pushed the door open and entered. The beautiful young woman was looking at Sean in shock. Besides that, there was intense disdain and hostility in her eyes.The woman was none other than Aria Crosac, who quarreled with Shania last time in Dorodo.The man behind Aria was her bodyguard, Lowich.When she saw Sean,
