"Lord Leggins asked me to go out and check on the situation for him!"
The doorman had no idea that Lykins was dead. When he heard that Joey was acting on Lykins' orders, he didn't think much of it and opened the door directly.
Joey slipped out, and the doorman closed the door again.
Now that Leggins was dead, Joey realized that the Draenei matter was no longer urgent. He was now genuinely interested in assessing the situation so he could place his bets on which side and maximize his own profits.
Who is it?
But he had only run a short distance when he was stopped by several figures that suddenly appeared in front of him.
"And who are you?"
Joey held the longsword in his hand, but in the dim light, neither of them could see each other's faces clearly.
"Joey Brown?"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd ahead called out Joey's name.
"You are..."
"What? Didn't you recognize our voices, guys?"
Once the figures realized that the person in front of them was Joey, they relaxed their guard and ran over. It turned out to be the guards at the city gate.
"Oh, so it's you guys!"

"You don't believe it, do you? If we hadn't seen it with our own eyes, we wouldn't believe it either! Alright, you should go back now. I think the city lord has already started his counterattack. We need to rush over to support him!"
"Brother, orcs are not to be trifled with. Are you still going to go over there?"
Joey deliberately asked a probing question.
"Someone has already gone there. I heard the Alliance sent reinforcements. The leader is called something like Sauron, and he used to be a captain in Saibanda!"
"Commander Zoro?"
Joey was shocked by the news; he hadn't expected that Captain Zoro had already arrived in Sandstone Castle.
His mind raced, already considering how to handle what was to come.
