Mercenaries and Adventurers

After a while, several young robbers walked out of the bushes in a daze.

They looked at each other in silence, and without speaking, they decided to follow the order of the bandit leader before they came out, and go to the front to help the experienced bandits do some auxiliary work.

A young man was walking, and kept rubbing his hands on his clothes and pants. His hands, which didn't look very dirty, seemed to be covered with some heavy things in the eyes of this young bandit.

In the bushes, the fat bandit leader picked up the **** corpse and threw it behind the bushes. Immediately afterwards, he took out a dry cloth, picked up the steel dagger stained with innocent blood on the ground, and wiped it casually.

Looking up at the dogs who had been standing by without moving, the bandit leader asked, "What are you still doing here? Go out and call another group of people. Well, you've done a good job, keep going."

The dog leg trembled all over, recovered his senses, then nodded heavily at the bandit leader, smiled flatteringly, and then immediately turned around and walked out of the bushes.

Gou Zuizi touched his 'smiling face' and found that the whole face was stiff, and then he sighed heavily, muttering something like God's blessing.

In this way, a group of small groups of young bandits were tricked into the bushes by him in a simple way, and received a thorough "bandit professionalism education" from the bandit leader, and successfully stepped from ordinary people to the road of bandits with no turning back.

Out of the eight innocent people, there was only one middle-aged businessman left. Just when the businessman was crying and thinking that he could escape today, the bandit leader grabbed the man's head and carefully looked into the eyes of the man who seemed to have survived.

"Although it's a pity, you can't live, after all, you saw something you shouldn't see."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for any reaction from the businessman, he directly twisted the man's neck.

With a rattle, the person died.

Like other innocent people who died tragically, the bandit leader threw the corpses into the depths of the bushes, and gave the human corpses to the wild beasts wandering in the woods.

After doing these evil things, the bandit leader clapped his hands indifferently, rubbed his shoulders, twisted his neck, picked up his big axe, and walked out of the bushes so naturally.

It seemed that he had done a trivial matter that seemed insignificant to him.

"This kind of thing should have been done a long time ago, hey, I'm still too kind, and I can't bear the money and people I got."

Talking to himself, the bandit leader once again joined the command of the bandit subordinates.

-

Sporadic arrows shot out from the woods not far from the trade road, which annoyed Keel a little. He didn't expect that these bandits were really like chewing gum stuck to the soles of their shoes. They hated them and had nothing to do with them.

He drove his horse towards the woods, and the arrows that didn't threaten him stopped, and through the shadow of the edge of the sparse woods, he could see the silhouette of the bandits with bows and arrows retreating quickly.

But when Kiel rode a little farther away, the scouting bandits who didn't know where they were hiding in the woods would blow whistles imitating birds to call back the bow bandits who were evacuating quickly.

Soon, sparse bows and arrows would be shot from the woods towards Kiel and the refugee team on the trade road.

These bows and arrows are not strong, and the arrows are poorly made. They are not a threat to Kiel, who is wearing heavy metal armor. Not to mention that he was always moving on horseback, even the arrow shot by Good Luck hit him with a ding sound, and bounced off immediately after smashing the arrow.

Kiel didn't even need to take out the elven metal shield for additional defense.

But these seemingly sparse arrows caused great trouble to the refugee team.

Some bandits with good physical strength and good hunting bows in their hands did not target Kiel, but specifically used projectiles to attack the slow-moving crowd of refugees on the commercial road.

Often when an arrow is shot, as long as the wind direction does not change, it will most likely go straight into the refugee ranks, injure an unlucky citizen, or hit the supplies carried by the people.

Often, when someone is shot, it will cause riots within a small group. Bows and arrows shot from this distance are not easy to hit the vitals of the human body, but as long as they hurt people, a person often loses the ability to move.

After all, not many people could bear the injury of being shot by an arrow, and then move with supplies on their backs. Most of the time, other people with empty hands can only carry or support the injured, and the supplies can only be handed over to others.

Obviously, under the current circumstances, it is not suitable for Priest Batar to take care of the wounded in the past. Not to mention that he still had to command the team to move forward and appease the nervousness of the people, even if he handed over the work to other people, this was not the time to treat the wounded.

No matter how powerful he is alone, he can't handle the number of wounded people who are increasing at any time.

Therefore, at this time, he can only try his best to let the people pass through the commercial road that is too close to the roadside woods as soon as possible, and after arriving at a relatively open place ahead, they leave the position where the team was attacked by the bandits in the woods. Only then can they start treating the wounded.

This is how things are done, but in order to appease the emotions of the people, explanations still have to be explained.

"Be careful with the arrows! Pay attention to the protection of the head and neck! Those who are shot by the arrows should stop the bleeding first! Leave the things in your hands to other people, and you have to keep up with the team with the help of others! Now is not the time to deal with the arrow wounds! Everyone, don’t slow down! Go faster, and when you reach the front, the open place in front of you, we can breathe a sigh of relief! Watch out for the arrows!"

Priest Batar shouted loudly on the prairie horse, trying to shout the content of the words to the people in the team.

When everyone is nervous, try to give them a goal that they can see with their eyes. With this goal, everyone can try their best to ignore the dangers around them and work hard towards the goal.

But such a defensive strategy of being passively beaten really made Kiel very depressed. These bandits were too entangled. He should have clearly seen the gap in strength between him and the bandits before, so why is he still entangled them like this at this time.

"Do you think I'm too lenient?"

Keir gritted his teeth. If the matter of haunting his innocent souls after the mass murder hadn't been resolved, he would have killed him with a gun and sword.

Whoever dares to harass them, he will kill that wave of bandits.

Whoever dared to kill the people in his team would kill the bandits.

Presumably the bandits didn't grow like weeds in the ground, did they? They are all human, and no one will come to his side for trouble at the risk of death or unilateral loss.

"From this point of view, the losses still haven't reached the limit of the bandits' tolerance. Or, it's the size of my team that makes the bandits feel that the plundering rewards they have earned are worth it?"

Keir didn't want to kill people with his own hands, but seeing how these bandits were entangled, it seemed impossible not to give them a good look.

Thinking of this, Kiel, who was galloping on horseback, thought of a way. He doesn't have to kill people himself, and he can completely leave the killing to his subordinates! He only needs to overthrow the bandits, and leave the matter of killing the bandits to others.

Thinking of this, Keir rode to the front of the team and shouted to the armed people guarding the refugee team: "Twenty fighters who think they can fight and dare to fight. Come with me into the nearby woods and wipe out the bandits who shoot arrows! Anyone who thinks they can fight, follow them!"

Keir's voice was loud, and the team of hundreds of people on their way could hear it clearly.

The next moment, at least half of the more than one hundred armed people rushed towards Kiel.

It's not that the remaining people are not brave enough, it's just that some people are carrying the injured people on their backs, and some people have other tasks, so they can't follow up and fight at will.

"There are a lot more! Everyone %% look at each other, how many times have twenty people come? You, you, you, you, you..."

Among the dozens of armed people that Kiel gathered together in a company, he selected 20 armed people who he could name, or who seemed to be wearing decent protective equipment. He didn't remember the rest, or the equipment was not very good, at least not as good as the armed people of the bandits, so Kiel didn't ask them to follow.

"Those who are not called go back to their original positions! Those who are pointed out by me, move quickly, lean over, and follow me straight to the bandits in the forest!"

Kiel shouted, turned his horse around, and waited for the people who came with him to gather, then let the horse walk in small steps, and rushed sideways towards the woods closest to the team.

At this time, the bandits there just released a round of arrows sparsely, and the arrows gradually became thinner. It seemed that the bandits were going to draw their bows and move, and continue to harass Kiel's refugee team a little ahead.

"Come on! Attack! Whether you recognize them or not, three or five people form a battle formation!"

With a shout, Kiel made the Bloodlicker quicken his pace a little, and guided the armed people following him to trot, shortening the moving time on the side of the unobstructed commercial road.

"Roar! Go!"

Without Kiel saying more words of encouragement to fight, the armed people following Kiel could no longer stand the anger brought about by these bandits who continued to shoot arrows at them. Kiel sped up his speed a little, and these young men all ran up one after another, roaring and increasing their momentum, and rushed towards the forest closest to the team.

The next moment, a wave of arrows shot towards Kiel from the woods, but Kiel swayed from side to side on his horse, and blocked a large number of arrows that were not powerful enough.

The bandits probably underestimated, and the arrows shot out hastily.

But Kiel knew that if he got closer to the woods, the enemy's arrows would be stronger and more accurate, and they would not aim at Kiel himself, because the bandits knew they couldn't hurt him.

"Be careful to avoid arrows!"

Kiel didn't hear the wailing behind him after the first wave of arrows shot over, knowing that no one was injured, so he reminded the armed people again.

He himself accelerated his horse and charged at the bandits first, forcing them to point their arrows at him.

Human subconsciousness is like this, always targeting the most threatening enemy.

It was not far from the woods, so after Keel accelerated his horse and rushed straight into the woods, he was close to the woods in just a few seconds. At this time, the bandits were still struggling to retreat to the depths of the woods? It's better to have a fight here with the knight and the people led by the knight.

Kiel didn't know what the bandits were thinking, but he saw the bow bandits who were supposed to shoot the second and third waves of arrows. In an instant amidst the whistle sounding in the woods, they put away the drawn bowstring and the bow arm of the hunting bow in their hands, and rushed towards the woods as if fleeing.

"Don't try to run!"

With a roar, Kiel jumped directly on the blood lick grass that had slowed down after approaching the woods. With the speed of the horse and his own jumping power, he rushed directly into the woods from a height of several meters like 'flying'.

When he was in the air, he saw a low bandit with branches and leaves on his body riding among the high branches of a leafy tree not far away.

If this guy hadn't been blowing a command whistle, it would be almost impossible for Keel to find such a bandit squatting on a high tree in the woods.

Deal with this first!

Keir was dressed in iron armor, and with the crackling sound, he broke many branches of different thicknesses, but he also slowed down in the air, and took the opportunity to hug the trunk of a big tree in the air.

The big tree shook for a while, but Kiel's legs were like riding a horse, firmly clamping the trunk of the big tree with a thick body.

After stabilizing his body a little, Kiel directly drew his sword and cut off a branch of appropriate thickness, put the sword back into its sheath, and then ran across the branch with the steel gauntlet on his hand, quickly removing the miscellaneous branches and leaves on it, and then threw it towards the thin bandit who was about to escape not far away.

Whoops!

The branch swirled, with full strength, and hit the bandit who was about to climb down the treetop.

The guy's eyes went dark, his body lost strength, and he fell from the height of the tree.

However, the thick and thin branches of the big tree with luxuriant branches slowed down the bandit's falling speed, and even caught the bandit's body in mid-air, leaving him on the tree.

But as soon as the star-eyed bandit came back to his senses, the big tree he was staying in shook violently, as if the trunk was being hit by a forest bear and rubbed against its back. Before he could figure out what was going on, someone grabbed his ankle and pulled him down violently.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"

Shouting in panic, the short bandit just saw what was attacking him when he was punched heavily in the stomach.

Being lifted in the air, the bandit shrank into a shrimp due to the pain in his abdomen.

Kiel glanced at this guy and found that one of the bandit's hands was a fake hand, with a few beast claws inlaid in the place of the fingers on it, and it was still bloody.

With a snort, Kiel kicked off the tree trunk with both legs, jumped off the tree, landed heavily, and threw the bandit with his legs in his hands to the armed people who happened to follow behind him: "He belongs to you, kill him and follow me!"

Kiel threw the man away, stopped looking behind him, lifted his legs and feet that had fallen into the calf position from the ground, and chased in the direction that made the bow bandits retreat.

The short bandit with a fake hand was thrown to the ground by the knight. Before he could recover, swords fell on him with roars from all around him.

"It's for Ruby! You shot her in the face!"

"There is also a partner from our village! This sword is for his arm that was shot through!"

After a few roars of vengeance, the bandit's head was chopped off by someone, and his white brains splashed out. It can be seen how angry the armed people following Kiir are at this time.

As soon as the man was hacked to death, someone ran past the bandit's body and quickly said, "Don't be dazed, follow up with Knight Kiel! We must help him fight! Otherwise, the knight will kill all the enemies!"

An armed member of the public let out a sigh of relief, and said heavily: "My lord should have done this long ago. A dead bandit is a good bandit. He taught us this."

Another armed citizen stepped forward and said as he walked, "If it weren't for our delay, the adults would have killed all the bandits a long time ago, and we still have to wait until now."

"It would be great if we were more powerful, and you don't need to take care of the Lord Knight."

"It's not too late, everyone keep up, don't pull down, there are bandits all around, who knows where there are bandits hiding. Keep up!"

The captain of the armed people's team commanded these volunteered fighters. They were in groups of three and four, with wooden shields and swords in their hands, and followed the continuous wailing sound blocked by the trees in front of them, and quickly chased after them.

What's funny is that Kiel had only ordered twenty armed people to fight with him. At this time, the leader of the armed people counted the number of people and found that including himself, at least 30 people followed here.

Of course, at this time, I couldn't care less about driving the ten extra people back. I can only say that these ten guys are really courageous and have a strong desire to fight.

"What did you do?"

The squad leader grumbled and followed the team.

-

Outside the woods, the blood licking grass was dissatisfied with pawing the grass with its hooves. It didn't even care about the lush and delicious grass on the ground. With one hoof, it was all flattened.

It was very dissatisfied with the fact that its owner pulled it down and rushed into the woods to fight alone, but as a qualified war horse, the owner didn't call it to fight together, so it had to wait where it was, waiting for the call or the owner's return.

Today's battle really satisfied the blood-licking weed. Compared with today's carefree battle, he used to bully the horses in the same stable and the new donkeys in the team, it seemed really boring and boring.

Suddenly, its ears flicked, and it noticed something faint. Although the roars and roars of humans in the woods kept coming and going, it still noticed something.

"Lu Lulu—"

It snorted and felt something approaching behind it.

So the blood licking grass swayed its legs and feet, turned around and saw, oh, it was a human being.

At this time, the bandit, whose body was still covered with fallen leaves and soil, was staring at the knight's horse, and on the horse's back, the heavy steel spear, fixed hunting bow and several bags of bows and arrows.

"Haha, those idiots are still fighting to death in the woods. The ambush is probably going to be a hard fight. But, master, I am the biggest winner today! Hahaha, just relying on my luck, it seems that you, the goddess, still haven't given up on me!"

This bandit, needless to say, is the number one henchman of the bandit leader in this gang of bandits, a guy who is a bandit but believes in the goddess of luck.

As the leader's lackey, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com naturally didn't have to go out and kill the enemy, and no one in the gang said anything. But just now he had an idea, and in the temporary plan set up by his companions to lure and ambush knights, with his keen intuition, he found a point of interest that many people hadn't noticed.

The knight was led into the woods to design an ambush, so his horse, which is not convenient for riding in the woods, would be left alone?

Generally speaking, one of the knight's attendants would be in charge of the knight's war horse, but the bandits had been observing for a long time just now, and did not see any other horsemen fighting with the knight.

There were people riding horses in the refugee team, but from a distance, they didn't look like soldiers, but more like those priests in the church who wore robes and preached the doctrine.

So Gou Zuizi hid under the fallen leaves and soil at the edge of the woods. After changing positions several times, he finally got his chance at this time!

"I'm well-developed! Haha! I won't be a bandit after I sell this war horse and equipment! Whoever wants to curry favor with others, go curry favor with others, isn't it better to live in a big town than to please others in this remote village. Pooh, I don't have to do these bad and disgusting things anymore. Hahaha, good horse, don't worry, I'm not a big bad guy, close your eyes, one, two, three, wake up, and become gold!"

Singing a little song that he had just made up, the dog leg raised his hands while smiling, and slowly approached the knight warhorse who was staring at him.

At this time, the smile on his face was finally no longer a fake, the smile that bloomed from the skin to the skin even brought the new life in the future that he imagined.

But the blood licking grass not far away looked at the bandit who was walking towards him with puzzled eyes.

Does this stupid human being think that the blood licking grass is stupid?

Grandpa is very smart, isn't he?
