Chapter 2087 Persuading to Surrender

Arnold nodded with complicated emotions, expressing deep sympathy.

"Two years ago, on the banks of Lake Aosta, Logan's corps fought side by side with our army. Even if I stand in a hostile position now, I must admit that this person is a tough guy with strong bones. People like him , most likely would rather fight to the last moment than lay down their weapons and raise their hands in surrender."

Lowry frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "The cause of this turmoil may not be clear to outsiders, but at least we know it in our hearts. Arnold, to tell you the truth, I think Your Excellency the Commander has gone too far. The smallpox of the smallpox, and then the fire and massacre in Hegu Town, it is clear that the Logan family has been driven to a desperate situation step by step. If you and I are in Logan's position, besides rising up and resisting, is there a second way to go? "

Facing the blunt questioning from his friend, Arnold was speechless.

In fact, he also felt that his elder brother's actions were too vicious, but he was his own elder brother after all, and thinking about his mother's misfortune, he really couldn't take the position of an aboriginal to compare his heart like Lowry did.

At this time, a magical vortex suddenly rose from the bottom of the hillside, and a shining beam of light rose flatly.

"Huh? It seems that someone has teleported over!" Lowry picked up the binoculars vigilantly.

Arnold was also taken aback, watching the teleportation array vigilantly, and found three figures emerged, namely the hunchbacked old man on crutches, the tall Asa man, and the black-robed boy supporting the old man. It looks familiar.

"It's strange, why did Joan appear here, and the old man beside him looks a bit like Sir Custis." Arnold looked surprised.

"Should we go down and say hello to Lord Sir and Dr. Vader, or should we go and inform His Excellency the Commander first?" Lowry asked his friend.

Arnold hesitated for a while, and replied: "You go to the headquarters to report, and I will go down and ask Joan and their purpose."

Lowry nodded, turned around and ran towards the headquarters.

Arnold waved away the two guards who tried to follow behind him, walked down the hill alone, and was about to call Joan, but found that he and the Asa monk had already supported Sir Custis and walked into the hiding place of the Asa bandits the woods.

The figure in the forest flickered, and the sons and daughters of Logan Volsunger came up in camouflage nets woven from branches and leaves. They whispered a few words to the three special visitors, and then led them to the depths of the dense forest.

Arnold watched Joan's back disappear into the dense forest, scratched his head, his eyes were full of confusion.

...

The afterglow of the setting sun is about to dissipate, and the dark forest is filled with a pungent smell of blood.

Joan helped Sir Custis along the way, often seeing bandaged Asa warriors. These wounded soldiers held their weapons tightly in their hands, but their faces could not hide their exhaustion. There was a decisive and tragic atmosphere in the forest.

Logan Volsunger was sitting on the ground with his back against the tree stump, his body was stained with blood. Seeing his daughter bring someone over, he tried to get up to meet him, but his injured knee couldn't support it. Thanks to Haakon's timely support, he was saved from falling.

"My lord, I didn't expect that we would meet again on this occasion..." Logan's resolute face showed bitterness, "I'm sorry, I let you down."

"No, I should apologize, Logan, I should have prevented this tragedy from happening, but I failed to fulfill my responsibility..." The old man was full of guilt.

Perhaps recalling the tragic death of his beloved wife at the gunpoint, Logan had tears in his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried his best to calm himself down.

"My lord, as well as Joan and Master Heimdall, thank you for remembering me at this time, but I am not worthy of your rescue."

"My heart has died with poor Ishtar since the day Riverdale was engulfed in flames."

"Since then, I have betrayed my ideals, and the will to revenge has dominated my soul and become the only motivation to support me to live."

"For revenge, I not only killed Henry James with my own hands, but also many people died directly or indirectly because of me, including soldiers and civilians, both colonists and my countrymen."

"My lord, I know that you are here to seek reconciliation. To be honest, I am tired. Let this bloody nightmare stop here."

"If you can convince Laval to spare my family and my countrymen as the price of peace, I will gladly give my humble life."

"Father! Please don't say it!" Slude had tears in his eyes and gritted his teeth. "No one here should be sacrificed. The real ones who have to pay the price are the careerists and executioners who started the war, the 'butcher' Laval and Behind them are the invaders who slaughtered our compatriots and robbed our land!"

Logan waved his daughter not to intervene, and then said to Sir Custis: "Please tell Laval, either let my children and people go, and I will be left alone for Henry James to die, or continue to fight until Wolverhampton The warriors of the Ersong family shed their last drop of blood!"

"Logan, I don't agree with your terms."

Ser Custis stepped forward with shambling steps, clasped his old friend's hand, and made a firm promise.

"Listen, not only your family members and compatriots must live well, but you yourself must not give up the hope of survival!"

"I will fight for you to have a public trial. You can state your grievances and expose the truth in front of the judge, jury and all the observers."

"I will also ask Joseph Adams to be your lawyer and defend your innocence in court!"

"Old friend, please believe me, there is still justice and justice in Midgard, at least one out of every twelve colonial citizens can tell right from wrong!"

Logan smiled moved, followed by a sigh.

"Uncle Logan, you must listen to the Lord's advice. Even if you don't think about yourself, you must also think about Haakon and Slude!"

What Joan is worst at is persuading and comforting others, but here and now, he can no longer remain silent.

"Haakon and Slude... have already lost their mother, and they cannot lose their father no matter what..."

As soon as the words fell, Qiao An heard the suppressed sobs of the girl beside him, and he couldn't help his nose sore, almost crying.

"I see."

Logan nodded heavily, turned around and told Haakon and Slude to evacuate with the remaining clansmen in the forest and return to Stone Pillar Town as soon as possible.

Haakon still hesitated, and Sir Custis said to him: "Son, feel free to go. I will protect your father's safety and do my best to help him get rid of the crime, so that your family can be reunited as soon as possible."

Haakon nodded with red eyes: "My lord, please!"
