I was a knight in the Middle Ages

"Lilia, keep an eye on them! Don't let Alaska touch the cage, or they will all die." Alpha threatened loudly, because at this moment Bahot had returned to human form, and Lilia's bow and arrow were extremely threatening.

"Yes." Lilia pulled the bowstring to its full extent, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any time.

"Lord Alpha, I promise I only want to see him, just to confirm that Bahot is alive." Alas stated his intentions again.

Arras walked around the iron cage until he met Bahom's eyes. The two seemed to be staring at each other, and although there was no sound, the emotions flowed invisibly.

"Okay, take Alaska away to me." Although Alpha didn't know what the two had just done, he knew that the longer the time, the greater the risk.

"Are you okay? Otherwise I'll drag this guy away." Alpha threatened again.

"Okay, I'll go back and report now. We will fulfill our promise and make you satisfied." Alaska agreed immediately.

The transaction went on as planned. Alpha requested that the exchange be held in an open area far away from the village, while Bahom wanted it to be as close as possible.

Finally, the Alpha army stopped 500 meters away from the stronghold. There were more than a thousand people. Alpha brought up militia and even engineers to show their strength, and the official trading location was set 50 meters away from the stronghold. Alpha arranged a large number of archers and shield-bearing heavy cavalry to be on guard to prevent the enemy from attacking.

Watching the iron cage slowly descending, Alpha had a blank expression on his face, but his eyes were fixed on the cage.

"Looks a little familiar..." Rowling squinted, but the distance was too far and she couldn't see clearly.

"Alpha, I'll go check on the hostages." Rowling mounted her warhorse and quickly approached the iron cage.

"Is it Ino?" Lina could see him from a distance because she was most familiar with Ino.

"I'll go and take a look." Before she finished her words, Lina had already jumped on the horse and galloped forward.

"Lina, don't go over there!" Alpha's shouts were left far behind and were of no use.

"Lawlin, stop her." Alpha shouted loudly, knowing that Lina was a little impulsive. However, the distance was too far, and Rowling could not hear his command clearly.

"It's Ino, it's really Ino!" After Lina confirmed the identity of the prisoner, she immediately shouted excitedly.

"Let her go quickly, or I will be rude to you!" Ino was locked in a cage, hanging in the air. Lina's shouting did not have any effect.

"Lina, come back. Rowling, bring her back." Alpha was worried that Lina was too close to the other party. Once attacked, she would not be able to escape at all, and then she would not have enough bargaining chips.

"She is Ino! Alpha, she is Ino! Please save Ino!" Lina cried for help, but although Rowling stood beside Lina, she was unable to calm her excited emotions.

"Alas." Alpha sighed helplessly when he saw this scene. Alpha had originally planned to rescue all the hostages, and it was even possible to exchange more hostages. But now, this farce has made the situation even more complicated.

"Lord Alpha, are you satisfied with this hostage?" Alas asked with a smile, and it was obvious that he had just seized an opportunity for negotiation.

"Unsatisfied, do you know her relationship with me?" Alpha tried to change the subject.

"Don't you know each other?" Alas raised the corner of his mouth, obviously not believing Alpha's nonsense.

"Of course I know her. I would know her even if she turned to ashes. She used to be my attendant, but she ran away when I was at my lowest point. What do you think our relationship is?" Ino had been filled with hope when he saw Lina coming, but when he heard what Alpha said, Ino's eyes dimmed. After all, Alpha was right. This was a naked betrayal.

"Lord Alpha, Ino didn't mean it. You can't do this. Please save Ino." Lina cried, trying to move Alpha with her tears.

"Rowling, take Lina away. If you let her come up again, I will punish you." Alpha shouted sternly.

The upturned corner of Alas' mouth disappeared in an instant. Looking at Alpha's eyes and Ino's expression, he was afraid that things were not simple, not just acquaintance.

"Thank you for returning this thing to me." Alpha's angry expression did not seem fake, "I will cut her into pieces in front of everyone."

"That won't do. She is our prisoner, unless you are willing to exchange her." Regardless of the relationship, Alas could not let this person go with just one word.

"I know her character. She can't be a commander. I can only be considered half a commander." Alpha began to bargain.

"No, I can't make the decision." Alas was only responsible for the negotiations and had no right to make the decision.

"Put her down, I want to check her body." Alpha saw Alas going up to ask, so he went forward to check.

Looking at Ino's evasive eyes and the marks on his body, Alpha left expressionlessly.

"We can release other prisoners instead." Arras came down again in the basket.

"I'm not satisfied." Alpha actually raised an objection, "What you gave me is not complete. I said that as long as I didn't succumb to you, I don't agree with this now."

"What do you mean?" Arras' face turned pale, not understanding what Alpha meant.

"You know what I mean. I said I'll just have someone who hasn't succumbed to you. Now she's only a quarter of the commander." Alpha roared angrily.

"Lord Alpha, I guarantee that she is intact and no one will touch her." Arras said unsteadily. After all, Bahom had just dragged Ino into the small room for half an hour, and who knows what they did. Moreover, Ino's walking posture was not right when he came out.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? I'll give you ten minutes. If I can't find a deal that satisfies me, I will leave immediately." Alpha left without looking back.

"I'll go back now. By the way, what if it's an ordinary knight? How much would it be in exchange?" Arras now knew that Alpha didn't care about the life or death of the hostage in front of him.

"Ten. I can only count this guy as ten. If you try to trick me with those people again, the deal will be invalidated immediately." Alpha threatened again.

Alpha walked back and was scolded by Lina.

"Lord Alpha, how could you do this? That's Ino! I hate you and I will never forgive you." Lina watched Alpha run away without looking back.

"Do you two hate me?" Alpha looked at Fattam and Rowling and smiled self-deprecatingly. They were the only two old men left.

"Alpha, I believe you." Fattam didn't want to think about all this mess. If she followed Alpha, then everything would depend on her man.

"I understand you, Lord Alpha." Rowling is a smart person, and everything is just a strategy.

……

"Damn it, I didn't even penetrate you. I was just rubbing it outside, using my mouth. What else do you want from me?" Bahom roared angrily, trying desperately to vent his dissatisfaction.

"Give him forty ordinary female knights." After being furious, Bahom regained his composure.

"Chief, there are only twenty-eight people in the cage including the two of them." Alas reminded softly.

"Assholes, weren't there fifty people at the beginning? Did you embezzle some?" Bahom glanced around with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Bahom, calm down. You raped five people at the beginning and killed them all. There are ten more who surrendered to you later." Captain Truss couldn't bear it and reminded loudly.

"No, how many more?" Bahom remembered more than these.

"Bahom, now is not the time to discuss this. Do you want to change or not? The time is up." Truss knew that Bahom did not want to hand over the real commander Tasli.

"I'll settle the score with you later." Bahom realized that the rest was embezzled by his subordinates, so he cleared it out.

"The one below, plus the twenty-six ordinary knights, and a few more to join in." Bahom was ready to fill in the numbers.

"Chief Bahom, that guy said that if the last incident happens again, all transactions will be invalidated." Alas reminded softly.

"That's it. If it doesn't work, send that guy down." Bahom would not cry until he saw the coffin.

"Okay!" Alas was only responsible for the negotiations.

"How does the other party judge the quality of the hostages?" Bahom was ready to lie.

"I don't know either. He just walked around the cage and didn't check it carefully." Alas was also puzzled.

"It's his eyes. He judges whether the other person has surrendered by his eyes, not by his body posture." Truth answered the question.

"How can you tell with your eyes?" Bahom was puzzled.

"Unyielding, hope, determination, faith..." Bahom didn't understand what Truss said at all.

"What the hell? Never mind, let everyone down. Remember, no one is allowed to open the cage until Bahot is released." Bahom emphasized.

"Sir, are you satisfied?" Thirty-one cages were neatly hung in the air, which was a spectacular sight.

"Look into my eyes." Alpha had no trust in these bandits at the moment, and any gap would make him suspect that the other party was cheating.

"Look into my eyes." Alpha shouted again.

"This, this, and those three, put them down." There were still five people who did not look at Alpha.

"Alaska, you didn't seize your last chance!" Alpha noticed that the five people had strange postures, dull eyes, and no hope. They had become zombies.

"No, there are obviously only four!" Arras replied subconsciously. He chose those four himself.

"Deal canceled." Alpha turned and left.

"Lord Alpha, Tasri has also been captured." Suddenly, Ino shouted loudly. This was Ino's only chance. If she missed it, she would have no future.

"Save me, Lord Alpha, I know I was wrong." Watching Alpha walk away without looking back, endless despair surged in Ino's heart.

"Lord Alpha, you see, she is the commander of this knight order." Arras immediately put down the last cage.

"Ten more." Alpha increased the bet again.

"what!"

"One commander, ten ordinary knights, and the rest, bring them up." This time, Truss called out. If Bahom continued to make the decision, the other party would probably consume all the hostages bit by bit.

"Wait, let me pick the hostages." Alpha stopped the other party from pulling the cage.

"Okay, let him choose." Truss agreed without hesitation.

"You have to believe me. I can save ten of you now, and I can save all of you eventually, as long as you don't give up hope." Alpha seemed to be choosing randomly, but he basically chose those knights who were about to give up.

"Okay, release the people I have chosen." After Alpha selected the hostages, Truss ordered his men to open the cage.

"Then please keep your promise, Lord Alpha." Arras will not release the hostages unilaterally.

"Rowling, open the cage and bring Bahot over here." Looking at the cage slowly opening, Alpha asked Rowling to bring Bahot over.

"And her." Now, only Tasli had not been released.

"As long as Bahot comes, I will release the hostages." Alas is not a fool, Tasli is the biggest bargaining chip.

"Lord Alpha, save me." Ino pleaded desperately as he watched the other cages slowly rise.

"Let her go." Alpha looked at the slowly rising cage, pointed at Tasli's cage and immediately yelled.

"Okay." After confirming that Bahot had arrived, the Alas people immediately ordered people to open the cage. The other hostages had been taken away, leaving only Bahot and Tasli walking opposite each other.

At the moment when the two met, Bahot unexpectedly broke free from the rope in his hand and rushed towards Tasli.

At this moment, Alpha took action, accelerated instantly, and exchanged glances with Tasli, and the two of them actually missed each other. Alpha's goal was not to rescue Tasli, but to rescue Ino who had risen behind him.

Alpha jumped up and stepped directly onto the roof of the Alas cage and continued to move upwards.

"That's a fine iron cage, you can't break it." Bahom on top laughed loudly. Bahot caught Tasli, and it only took ten ordinary knights to replace his brother. He made a profit.

"How is that possible?" But Alpha's long knife actually cut open Ino's cage.

"Lord Alpha, don't worry about me, save Tasli." Ino instantly went from despair to hope, his fighting spirit was immediately restored, and he stood up and jumped down.

But Alpha did not jump down. Instead, he used the iron cage to jump up again and saved another female knight.

However, it was already more than 20 meters high, and Alpha could only descend with the help of the Alas cage cable.

"Ino, catch her." Standing on the top of the cage, more than ten meters high, Alpha threw the woman in his arms down.

"Catch him, Bahoth, Alas." Bahomtrus shouted as he watched Alpha jump into the cage. They knew that if they could catch the other commander, it would be worth it no matter how high the price.

"Kill." Bahot instantly transformed into a beast, and Alpha took the opportunity to cut off Tasli with a knife and was about to jump down. But at this moment, Alas grabbed Alpha's thigh. Alpha had no choice but to throw Tasli down.

"Kill." Arras turned into a werewolf and slapped Alpha. Alpha didn't care about Arras and chopped him directly.

With a loud bang, the two men took three steps back at the same time. The orc's strength was greatly reduced, and he was unable to crush Alpha in terms of strength. Alpha's strength was also limited due to his entanglement with Alas.

In the narrow cage, Alpha and the werewolf Bahot started a fierce battle. The two exchanged fists and feet, and weapons collided, making bang bang sounds. Both were well-trained fighters, and both intended to win this battle, and they would pay any price for it.

Alpha held the sword tightly, and used his agility to move around in the cage, avoiding Bahot's attacks. Bahot transformed into a werewolf, waving his claws and teeth one after another, trying to catch Alpha's flaws. Both sides used their advantages to the extreme, trying to overwhelm the other.

Alpha used his speed to run around Bahot, trying to make his opponent lose balance. Bahot used his strength and physical advantage to try to push Alpha against the cage wall. The two fought back and forth in the cage, and the battle gradually entered a white-hot stage.

Alpha used his weapon skills to cut arcs, trying to make Bahot lose his balance; Bahot used his claws and teeth to attack Alpha fiercely, trying to beat him to the point where he could not resist. The battle was extremely fierce, and both Alpha and Bahot tried their best. But in the end, there was only one winner.

"Werewolf, look at my most powerful sword!"
