Chapter 1429 The End

Charles looked around, and after confirming that there were no generals of the Britannia Army around, he softly said to Barr and others:

"Let's take a little rest..."

…

…

at the same time--

"how?"

Bedford turned to his adjutant and asked:

"Have you trapped Baal and his party?"

As soon as Bedford finished speaking, his adjutant immediately replied:

"We have tracked the whereabouts of Barr and others. They are now on the top of that hill."

The adjutant pointed towards a hill not far ahead.

"I have ordered all troops to complete the siege of the hilltop from all directions."

"It is no longer possible for Barr and his party to escape."

"Yes." Bedford's face was filled with a satisfied smile, "Very good."

Just then, Bedford paused.

"That's right. I almost forgot to ask." Bedford paused for a while and asked, "When you were chasing Barr and his group just now, did you see a girl among Barr and his group?"

"Yes!" the adjutant replied without hesitation again, "Many people have witnessed the figure of a famous girl among Barr's group!"

"Yes." Bedford nodded, "That girl should be the 'Saint Girl' of the Rollin Empire. Has anyone seen what the 'Saint Girl' looks like?"

"According to most reports - the 'Saint Girl' seems to have brown hair and purple eyes, with her hair styled into a braid. And the 'Saint Girl' seems to be quite beautiful."

"Brown hair and purple eyes...do you have your hair in braids..." Bedford raised his eyebrows, "That's a coincidence. I remember that there was a very famous female knight in history who also had brown hair and purple eyes. Wearing braids.”

"Female knight?" the adjutant asked doubtfully.

"Well, yes. I remember that there was a very famous female knight with brown braids and purple eyes. But I forgot the name of that female knight..."

After thinking for a long time, Bedford shook his head without recalling the name of the female knight.

"Forget it, I don't want to anymore."

Because he really couldn't remember the name of the female knight, Bedford simply stopped thinking about it and focused his energy and attention on the battle against Barr that was about to begin and would end soon. Wait for the encirclement and suppression.

…

…

Barr leaned against a big tree, his head lowered expressionlessly.

I don’t know what I’m thinking about.

Charles, who always felt that Barr's current appearance was really weird, walked quickly to Barr, and then leaned down:

"Barr, you look so strange...are you still tired?"

"...No." Barr shook his head, "My body is not very tired..."

"but……"

Barr changed the subject.

"I'm exhausted everywhere except my body..."

Speaking of this, Barr let out a few self-deprecating laughs.

"We... were betrayed... by the villagers of Hena Village... by the citizens of the Luolin Empire..."

Although Barr's voice was very soft, because everyone was sitting together, everyone present heard Barr's words very clearly.

After Barr's words fell, the shoulders and heads of Gilles, Eugene, Charles, and Jeanne collapsed one after another...

When they learned that the wooden house they lived in was surrounded, they all understood what had happened...

They were betrayed by the villagers of Hena Village - although they are very reluctant to admit this, it is a cruel and unchangeable fact...

"I have fought for this country and for this country all my life..."

Barr continued to use his low voice and whispered:

"I thought...my fight was to protect this country and the civilians of this country..."

"But I didn't expect...these are just my wishful thinking..."

"My battles over the years,

Not only has it not allowed the ordinary people of this country to live a better life. "

"On the contrary, it makes them further and further away from a better life..."

"What the village chief said today and what Jeanne said in the house just now are correct..."

"We are... too arrogant..."

"We have always looked at the common people in the country with a superior attitude..."

"Wishful thinking is that what we do is good for them..."

"The arrogant and unreasonable demands are that they all have no bread and no so-called noble people..."

"I'm such a... hopeless... idiot..."

…

…

"Barr...you should have a good rest..."

Charles originally wanted to say something to comfort his old friend.

But even after racking his brains, Charles could not think of any words that could comfort his old friend.

In the end, I could only say "You should have a good rest", then turned around and looked at Gill, Eugene and Jeanne with complicated expressions.

"...Let's discuss how to escape in the future." Ciel said solemnly, "About escaping from here - do you have any unique insights or opinions?"

Gilles, Jeanne, and Eugène, you look at me, and I look at you.

No one spoke up for a long time.

Being unfamiliar with this area and without a map, their minds were completely blank...

Charles sighed softly, as if he had expected such a situation.

Just as Charles opened his mouth and was about to say something——

Bang.

A muffled sound, not too loud, came from behind him.

He looked behind him with a doubtful attitude.

After seeing the scene behind him clearly, Charles' eyes widened in astonishment.

Gilles, Eugene, and Jeanne also widened their eyes.

This muffled sound, not too loud, was the sound of Barr... To be precise, it should be the sound of Barr's body falling to the ground...

There was a dagger stuck in Barr's neck.

The sharp blade pierced Barr's neck, and large streams of blood gushed out from the wound.

His hands tightly grasped the hilt of the dagger, and he did not let go even after he fell.

Barr's expression was very calm.

There was no sadness, pain, or sadness on his face.

Only calmness.

It was so calm that it was hard to imagine what Barr was thinking before he died...

Just now, Charles, Gilles and the others were only discussing how to escape.

They didn't notice that Barr had quietly pulled out his dagger and pierced his neck without any hesitation.

Gill and the others stumbled towards Barr's body...

"Commander Barr!"

Eugene lay on Barr's body and cried bitterly without any image.

Although Charles didn't cry, his eyes were red and his body was trembling slightly.

Gill and Jeanne looked heavy and couldn't say a word for a long time...

Barr's death was too sudden...

It was so sudden that they felt a sense of unreality...
