Wilderness Redemption Tour

Just when the atmosphere in the tavern reached its climax, several men in Confederate uniforms pushed open the door and walked in aggressively.

"It's the Lemoyne Raiders... Why are they here..." Lin Yan, who was standing behind the bar, heard the drinker next to him mumbling softly.

Lin Yan, who had dealt with the Lemoyne raiders several times, recognized the style of their military uniforms at a glance. He put down the bottle of wine and reached for his waist.

Hosea naturally recognized who the visitor was. In order to avoid unnecessary conflict, he greeted them from the stairs leading to the second floor: "Good evening, gentlemen. Would you like a drink, too?"

The leader slowly said: "You..."

"I?"

Hosea's interruption seemed to anger the other party, who pointed the pistol at Hosea and said, "You two bastards stole the wine we were going to buy!"

"Gentlemen, have you made a mistake? This is our latest new product. If you don't believe me, try it." Hosea stood on the stairs, expressing his innocence with rich body language.

Perhaps it was because Hosea acted too well, the man snorted, walked to a table of drinkers, reached out to pick up the bottle of wine on the table, tilted his head back and took a sip.

"Puff!" He spat out the wine as soon as it entered his mouth. He angrily threw the bottle to the ground and cursed: "Damn it, this is our wine!"

Then he gave orders to the others: "Brothers, kill them!"

The battle is about to break out.

Hosea had quietly moved to a position close to the second floor, relying on his ability to trick the other party into tasting the wine. When the battle broke out, he jumped up the last few steps and narrowly avoided the bullets shot at him.

As the gunshots rang out, those who were either drunk or half sober all screamed and ran towards the door, but as the few people in the front were shot by the Lemoyne Raiders reinforcements who poured in again, they fell to the ground one after another. The rest of them ran to the corners on both sides of the tavern in two groups, huddled there and trembled.

Lin Yan, who was standing behind the bar, pulled out his gun and shot the leader the moment he gave the order. In addition to him, the other Lemoyne raiders within his sight suffered the same fate. However, because the spiral staircase blocked part of his sight, a few "slippery fish" stepped onto the stairs and chased Hosea upstairs.

The influx of Lemoyne Raiders reinforcements forced Lin Yan to temporarily give up the idea of ​​rescue. He squatted behind the bar to avoid bullets while refilling the magazine. Then, while the enemy was shooting wildly at the bar, Lin Yan crouched down and sneaked out of the bar.

Behind the bar is a solid wall with a small door on the left, middle and right sides of the wall. The left and right sides lead to the corridors of the rooms on the first floor, while the middle one leads to the bar for the bartender to enter and exit.

According to Lin Yan's irresponsible guess, the bar style of this pub was completely designed for the current gunfight scene.

Walking around the middle door to the door on the left, which was the door leading directly to the back door of the pub, Lin Yan heard the chaotic gunshots continuing and the faint sound of bullets hitting the wooden bar. He took a deep breath and opened the Eye of Death just before sticking his head out.

In the almost still sight, several Lemoyne Raiders reinforcements coming in from behind were still tirelessly shooting at the bar. Upstairs, a Lemoyne Raider was shot and lay weakly on the railing, seemingly dead, while the other two Lemoyne Raiders faced Hosea and were trying to evade him.

"1...2...3..."

Every time he fired a bullet, Lin Yan counted silently in his mind. After he had used up five bullets and was sure that the only four remaining Lemoyne raiders downstairs were dead, he raised the muzzle of the gun and fired the last bullet in the gun upstairs.

After finishing the shooting, he threw away the pistol, took out the loaded bolt-action rifle from the space bag, and pulled the trigger at the only enemy left in his sight.

After the Eye of Death closed and the flow of time returned to normal, Lin Yan bent down to pick up the revolver at his feet, and walked upstairs while loading the bullet.

Upstairs, Hosea was hiding behind a card table near the balcony. He heard footsteps coming from the stairs again. He was about to shoot after just changing his bullets, but when he saw the unusually conspicuous tattered straw hat on Lin Yan's head and realized that he didn't hear any more gunshots, he stood up and asked, "Is everyone down there cleared?"

Lin Yan nodded and said nothing.

"Good job, Fenton, let's get out of here," Hosea said as he walked quickly towards the stairs.

Lin Yan walked in front of him, and when he came out of the back door of the tavern, he used the Eye of Death again. There was no one at the back door, and the two guards who were originally guarding the back door were not there. After confirming that there was no danger outside, he led Hosea to run towards the carriage.

When they left Lodz, they encountered no obstruction, neither any remaining Lemoyne raiders nor any law enforcement officers who rushed to the scene.

As soon as they drove out of Rhodes Town, Hosea cheered, "Ha! We are lucky. It seems that the police who came after hearing the news were paying attention to the front door of the tavern. We just took advantage of the time difference and took advantage of the opportunity."

Seeing that his words received no response, He Xia turned to look at Lin Yan.

"Come on, Fenton, Ross is out, stop acting like an idiot."

"Okay..." Lin Yan showed a relieved expression and couldn't wait to speak: "Are those Lemoyne raiders crazy? They actually dared to come to this town to cause trouble, and in the tavern opened by the sheriff of this town."

"I think this is more like a demonstration." Hosea analyzed while driving: "Sheriff Gray not only arrested their people and ruined their business, but also invited people to drink their wine for free in his own tavern. If it were me, I would also want to teach the Gray family a lesson."

"Grey family? Are you saying they think we are Grey family members?"

He Xia was about to answer, but his face suddenly changed, and he covered his chest and coughed violently. Seeing this, Lin Yan quickly reached out and patted his back.

After coughing a few times and spitting out a mouthful of phlegm, He Xia waved his hand at Lin Yan and said, "It's okay. It's an old habit caused by smoking when I was young. What were we talking about just now?"

"They think we're Gray."

"Oh, yes." Hosea nodded slightly and continued the previous topic: "I just thought about it again, and now I am 100% sure that the news was leaked to them by the Braithwaites, otherwise they would not have come so quickly. Just using a truckload of illegal liquor has exacerbated the conflict between the Gray family and the Lemoyne raiders. The hostess Catherine is not simple. I have to be careful when dealing with her in the future."

After listening to Hosea's analysis, Lin Yan also felt that this was probably the case. Although he felt a little unhappy about being cheated by the Braithwaites, he thought that this was normal. After all, he was the one who schemed against the other party first, so he should just treat it as "reciprocity".

"...Are we going back to the camp now?" Lin Yan changed the subject.

Hosea shook his head. "The camp is too close to Roz. We just got into trouble in town. Let's go around outside first before going back."

After circling around Scarlett Meadow and making sure that no one was following the carriage, Hosea drove back to the camp with peace of mind.
