The weapon that the city lord was holding tightly in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Even his wrist was twisted by the shock, and he immediately screamed in pain.
“Who is it?!”
He turned his head at this time and saw only a dozen civilians standing there with weapons in their hands.
"Untouchables!"
"Are you tired of living?!"
The city lord roared loudly, and some people in the city of Matruh who saw this scene retracted their heads slightly.
But the dozen or so civilians holding weapons looked at the city lord calmly, but their eyes seemed a little scary to the city lord.
Even just by standing there, they convey a very dangerous message.
"Come here! Capture those traitors!"
"They dared to throw weapons at me, really..."
Just then, one of the civilians below spoke up.
"That was to save a warrior who was willing to protect Matruh from you, the incompetent city lord!"
"Now that the enemy is about to arrive at the city gates, you dare to lead your troops to flee?"
"Do you know what crime you have committed?"
Faced with the questioning of those "common people", the city lord's expression began to become distorted.
He didn't care about his image and just shouted loudly with a voice that was about to break his throat.
"Kill these untouchables!"
"For every one you kill, I'll reward you with one hundred Deben silver coins!"
After hearing the words of the city lord, some warriors in Matruh City immediately had a light in their eyes. They picked up their weapons and immediately rushed towards the "civilians" with weapons.
"It seems you've made a lot of money reselling the Holy Pharaoh's grain, Lord of Matruh."
"Are you willing to pay one hundred deben silver coins for a single head?"
"Then wouldn't it cost you two or three German gold coins for all of us here combined?"
"I think it's better not to bother the city lord with any expense—"
As soon as one of the "civilians" finished speaking, he turned his gaze to several soldiers who were rushing towards him.
It happened so quickly that the weapon in his hand swung a few times, and the weapons in the hands of several soldiers who rushed over first were immediately knocked away. They had no choice but to fight the opponent with bare hands.
But their fists couldn't even touch a hair of the "civilians". On the contrary, they were even kicked upside down by the other side, and even flipped several times in the air, not knowing what was going on.
In just over ten seconds, dozens of soldiers lost their weapons and lay on the ground wailing in pain.
On the city wall, the city lord, the general manager and their followers stared at the scene below in amazement.
"What?!"
"You! Who are you?!"
"Could it be an enemy spy?!"
One of the "civilians" looked at the city lord on the city wall and raised his voice.
"Who are we?"
At this moment, a soldier with a weapon went towards the speaking "civilian", but he was knocked to the ground in two or three moves and could not move.
"You are actually willing to risk your life for such a leader?"
"He just said that he would open all the city gates and let the enemies outside in to slaughter you all!"
"And you! Stop right there, everyone! Don't go any further!"
"If you move forward, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
The "civilian" said this, and then pointed the weapon in his hand at the soldier's throat.
Seeing this, many soldiers who were about to attack them actually stopped, and there was a bit more fear in their eyes when they looked at those "civilians".
After all, it is impossible for ordinary people to have such agile skills.
"Everyone, listen up! We are the guards of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh of Holy Egypt!"
"We have been ordered to come to the city to conduct a secret investigation and monitor your city lord!"
"Now that you know our identities, if you dare point your weapons at me again, we will treat you as rebels and show no mercy!"
At this moment, the soldiers who were about to attack stood there with their eyes wide open.
"What?"
"They are actually guards from Holy Egypt, no wonder they are so skilled!"
"You...did you hear that? They are the guards of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"Yes! They are the guards of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
All the soldiers couldn't help but take a few steps back at this time, because all the soldiers of Holy Egypt knew that the guards of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh represented the highest combat power of the Holy Egyptian warriors.
They were well aware of the formidable opponent they were facing.
Of course, more importantly, if they turn their swords against these guards at this moment, they will be treated as rebels!
That means they will be beheaded on the spot by these guards and killed immediately!
As a result, no soldier dared to move forward. Even those soldiers who were knocked to the ground were trying their best to twist their bodies away from the guards from Cairo.
When the steward on the city wall heard the guard's words, his knees went weak and he fell to the ground with a thud.
At this moment, there was no light in his eyes, and his entire soul seemed to have been sucked away.
"stand up!"
"stand up!"
When the city lord saw the steward kneeling down, he just pulled him hard.
However, the steward's body was like wet soil, and fell limply to the ground as he pulled it.
He looked like he had fainted from shock.
The city lord looked at the people around him and then at the guards below.
His brain was racing, his heart seemed about to jump out of his throat, and a strong feeling of nausea rushed into his brain.
The presence of the Holy Egyptian guards here means that the matter has been exposed.
It means selling food for personal gain, pouring out potions to poison allied soldiers, and even abandoning the city and fleeing.
If any of the charges were to reach the ears of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, it would be a death sentence for him.
In the city lord's opinion, Kamul was the only one who knew about this matter, but he did not expect that even the guards of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh would come here in person.
That means that His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh not only knows about this matter, but also wants to punish the lord of Matruh.
So, the lord of Matru was trembling as he looked at the guards below. Then he turned his head and looked at the Vikings who had already landed on the shore.
A bold idea was born in his mind.
“They’re lying!”
"They are enemy spies! They plan to attack our Matruh from within!"
"Warriors of Matruh, take up your weapons and defend our city!"
"How dare these guys disguise themselves as Holy Egypt guards? Chop off their heads immediately!"
