Fairy Tail: I want to summon Baron Nash
Chapter 141 The army is coming!
The two people next to the carriage, one is a merchant, the other is a driver and porter.
The merchant is now in fear. He had heard that there might be bandits nearby, but he was reluctant to hire a magician as a guard. This trip almost cost him his life, and he almost lost all his family fortune.
The driver was also in fear. It was really miserable to meet a stingy boss. He was almost hacked to death by bandits.
"Mr. Baniya, are we leaving?"
"Wait a minute, it must have been done by the magician just now. Let's wait for him to come."
Baniya's hands were shaking a little, but there was a shrewd light in his eyes. Isn't there going to be a guard soon?
The two waited for a while, and suddenly saw a gray shadow approaching quickly in the forest, and then a werewolf suddenly landed in front of them.
The yellow-brown eyes stared at them, and the mouthful of fangs seemed to flash with cold light.
Baniya's legs were shaking and he almost wanted to leave first.
Fortunately, the werewolf spoke: "Who are you?"
Baniyya breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he could speak. This must be a werewolf transformed by magic:
"Mr. Wizard, we are merchants passing by here, preparing to go to Onibasi. We were almost hijacked by these robbers just now. Thank you for your help! Is there anything I can do for you?"
Where he was going actually had nothing to do with him. Rhodes nodded: "If it's convenient, please help tie these people up."
The driver was about to start, but was stopped by Baniya:
"I see you don't seem to have brought a rope. I happen to have one here. It's 30 meters long and only 600J!"
"Mr. Baniya!" The driver's eyes almost widened. In this case, he actually planned to sell the rope? How greedy is this person!
Rhodes also looked at him in surprise. What a talent, he still didn't forget to make money at this time?
It's just a bit annoying from his point of view.
"No need." Rhodes maintained the werewolf state, kicked away the weapons in the hands of the bandits one by one, and then returned to human form to tie people up.
The rope used was the bandits' belt.
"If you are fine, leave quickly and don't get in the way here."
Rhodes' attitude was not so good. This kind of annoying person is the most troublesome.
If they encounter danger again, they will feel unhappy if they are saved. If they do not save them, they will not be able to get over the conscience.
It is better to drive them away quickly.
But Baniya did not want to leave like this. What if there are robbers ahead?
"Mr. Magician, please don't misunderstand. This rope can be given to you for free."
Baniya said enthusiastically, "You will also send these robbers to the city hall after you catch them, right? What I mean is, you might as well go with us. Not only will you use the rope, but you can also take the carriage at will."
Free may be the most expensive. Rhodes didn't think much and guessed that this person wanted to use him as a guard for free.
Rhodes refused and said, "Sorry, I have other things to do. Don't bother with you."
Baniya said quickly, "We can wait! And..."
This person is really stubborn. If you can't convince me with reason, then we can only talk about money.
While Rhodes tied the bandit's hands behind his back, he said:
"Mr. Baniya, short-distance escort missions usually cost 2,000 to 10,000 J. For people like you who carry a large amount of goods and take dangerous routes, the cost needs to be increased as appropriate.
And do you think it is easy to hire a wizard like me and my companions who can kill more than ten enemies in an instant?"
It is because it is not so easy to hire one, so I want to get one for free! What's more, he has companions!
It's a pity that the price... Baniya hesitated for a while: "Sorry, I am rude, we will leave now."
A batch of bandits has been killed, and it should not be so easy to meet the second batch. If there is no escort, there is no escort.
The driver wanted to run away. He didn't know much about the market, but conservatively estimated that the profit of this carload of goods would be profitable even if he hired ten or eight wizards...
This Mr. Baniya really wants money but not life. Next time, he must find a boss who is more timid.
Rhodes tied up the ten people one by one, and then picked out the one who looked the most cowardly and took him to a slightly farther place to splash water to wake him up.
"Who are you? Let me go, or our boss..."
A two-headed wolf bared its teeth and approached him, scaring him to shut up.
"Tell me how many of you there are, whether there are wizards among you, whether there are paths, traps, escape passages, etc. on the mountain."
"How can I tell you that kind of thing!"
"If you don't tell me, you will be fed to the wolves. They just didn't have lunch." Rhodes waved his hand, and the two-headed wolf licked his cheeks from left to right and began to drool.
The bandit swallowed his saliva, and he could feel the hot breath of the two-headed wolf on his face: "I, I will tell you."
"I advise you not to tell lies. I will wake up others to confirm. If you tell a lie, I will bite off one of your hands."
Rhodes didn't know interrogation techniques, but he had heard of the prisoner's dilemma somewhere, and he didn't know if it meant this.
Anyway, after hearing this, the bandit was completely honest, and he told the situation on the mountain like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
It's better to go to prison than to be fed to the wolves by the man in front of him.
After getting the information, Rhode knocked the man unconscious, woke up another one and asked the same question.
He repeated this several times and got basically the same answers before returning to find Alzak and Biska.
These two were very reliable, holding their guns meticulously, one was responsible for staring at Rhode's direction, and the other was responsible for guarding the surroundings.
"How's it going?" Alzac looked at Rhodes and looked like he was interrogating.
"The number of people is about the same as what we know. Their boss can use a very destructive magic, and there are several traps on the road..." Rhodes' voice paused.
Bisca became alert: "What's wrong?"
"A swift crab fell into the pit. It's not a big problem." The field of vision did not disappear, so Rhodes knew that it was not dead. "The bandits may have been alerted. Prepare for a quick decisive battle to prevent them from running away in advance."
"I have no problem." Alzak looked at Rhodes, "Can your magic power hold up?"
Both receiving and summoning, Alzack remembered that Rhodes had used magic many times today, and was still maintaining many summoned beasts such as stone beetles, shadow wolves, sharp-beaked birds, and swift crabs.
Rhodes said: "It won't be a big problem within twenty minutes. I can take back a few at my discretion. If it can be done without me doing anything, of course that would be the best."
Alzak and Bisca looked at each other and said respectively:
"You've done enough work."
"It's up to us next."
That being said, Rhodes still planned to provide as much intelligence as possible before the war.
Then he sent a stone beetle to follow Bisca to the sniper point, and he took two stone beetles to follow Alzac around various traps and approached the bandit stronghold.
The bandit's stronghold is not that big. There is a wooden house in the middle, with several thatched houses scattered around.
A row of wooden fences were built around the perimeter, and two arrow towers were erected at the door.
There were a few soft pop-pop sounds. The bandit who was dozing at the door and the sentry on the arrow tower were shot and fell almost at the same time. Bisca took action.
Rhodes had already gone around to the back, preparing to block the bandits' escape route.
And Arzak loaded a high-explosive bomb and blew open the door with a bang.
The stronghold suddenly became lively, and the bandits shouted one after another:
"Enemy attack!"
"Asshole, who is he!"
"Boss! The army is coming!"
