Mount & Blade: Wind of War

Although the origin of the vengeful Iron Knight is unknown, it is obvious that he has a very high command ability.

It controls his subordinates to attack the caravan guards and slave traders who are in chaos and obviously have better physical equipment than the soldiers of Redwood Town. This is a very rational and correct choice, so no matter who fights this battle, it will be the same choice ten thousand times.

The Redwood Town soldiers not only suffered nearly zero casualties, but also achieved rich results. After this battle, eight out of ten successfully promoted to the third-level soldiers, the Charles Wild Hunter, and their melee and ranged attack capabilities have been greatly improved.

Twelve of the thirty-eight Charles spearmen can be upgraded, and eight of the eighteen Haidam light infantry can be promoted to Haidam infantry. However, one of the two disabled people (excluding the minor injuries that have recovered in the past half month) is theirs, and the other is a Charles spearman.

Because in the previous battle, eighteen Haidam light infantrymen followed Fatis to leave the battle formation to support the caravan guards and slave traders. In such a chaotic battle, no one was injured or killed. This was already a testament to Fatis's strength and dedication.

Even if Rhodes himself was in that environment, he was almost certain that he could not do the same as Fatis.

Because Fatis's martial arts were better than Rhodes's now. If you don't count the Qi gathering state, his holy light Qi is deeper and more powerful than Rhodes's.

"He is indeed a famous general who can be compared to a god-level hero in the future. With such basic qualities and such a profession, and with some good equipment and powerful light skills in the future, which necromancer or demon would not feel pain in his balls?"

"If those guys still have balls."

After all the adjustments were done, the loyal maid Cress ran up with hot broth. This bowl of soup was of course not goblin broth, but potato beef soup. With the careful cooking of the maid, it was mellow and delicious, with proper fat and greasy taste. Onions were even added to it, which made Rhodes sweat all over after eating it.

After learning that Rhodes had woken up, Butler Arlos and her female guard Ruier also came to see Rhodes.

However, Gunnarsser never came again. It might be that the idea of ​​hoping that Rhodes would die like this was shattered. This guy couldn't accept this cruel reality for a while.

When Rhodes thought that Gunnarsser was so unhappy because of this, he was particularly happy. He almost liked him because of this.

The sun sank and the moon set, and the caravan moved forward day after day.

As time went by, Rhode's body gradually recovered and even strengthened in the continuous practice of Holy Light Qi Dou Qi.

The strength and agility attributes of the system not only strengthen a person's strength and agility, but also strengthen his basic physical quality. Otherwise, if he punches out and his fist breaks, and kicks out and his foot is gone, then the so-called system strengthening will become a joke.

The same is true for Holy Light Qi Dou Qi. As a combat skill, it mainly strengthens the strength and agility of the practitioner, and it must also strengthen the practitioner's basic physical quality. Even the sacred Dou Qi is the most focused on physical strengthening among many elemental Dou Qi cultivation methods.

After another half a month, a mountain city of considerable size in the distant canyon appeared in the sight of the caravan.

At this time, Rhode's body had basically recovered and he could ride a horse.

Looking at the mountain city from afar, Cress came to Rhode and asked, "Master, didn't you say there are no cities in the wilderness? This, isn't this a city?"

"The absence of human cities does not mean there are no cities. The absence of human civilization does not mean there is no civilization."

At this time, as they were getting closer, everyone gradually saw the existence of the small black dots flying in the air of the city. They were the half-body of a human woman, the wings and claws of an eagle. However, unlike the one that Rhode had killed before, the harpies here had a clean appearance and clear eyes. Although they still had a strong sense of brutality, they were different from wild beasts and could communicate.

"Who are you?"

A harpy with deep red wings, different from other harpies, flew down first, waved her wings and stopped in the air in front of the caravan, and asked.

"We are a human caravan offering gifts and tributes to Her Majesty the Queen. We have already communicated with a commander, who told us that Her Majesty the Queen has granted us permission to pass through the Mountain Fortress."

At this moment, Arlos did not speak up. Instead, the female knight beside him, Rui'er, came forward. She respectfully raised a dazzling ruby ​​necklace with both hands and rode forward.

It seems that all female creatures like this kind of shiny thing, even the harpy in the sky was dazzled by it at this moment.

"It seems that except for the stone monsters in the Silent Hills that are really hard to deal with, the Atlan Chamber of Commerce has already taken care of all aspects of the entire trade route." Seeing this scene, Rhodes couldn't help but sigh softly.

"As long as there are enough gold coins, those greedy merchants can do almost anything. They are more courageous than the bravest warriors, and more cunning and greedy than the devils in hell." At this time, Fatis rode to Rhodes' horse and agreed.

With the precious ruby ​​necklace and crystal bracelet paving the way, the gate of this canyon mountain city was slowly opened.

On both sides of the city were gnoll and lizard soldiers, and in the air were harpy warriors wearing armor and holding weapons.

The human caravan of more than 150 people below slowly entered the city.

In this canyon mountain city, there are gnolls, lizardmen, fishmen, dwarves and ancient orcs (greenskins). Although there are also a large number of humans, the humans that Rhodes saw around were all in tattered clothes knocking stones on both sides of the city.

"The queen likes your gifts very much and has granted you the power to rest and pass temporarily. But don't make trouble in the city, otherwise the slaves around you will be your fate." With the crystal bracelet that Rui'er had just given, the harpy with crimson wings flew away with her subordinates around her after giving such instructions or threats.

It is hard to imagine that there is an urban function design such as a hotel in this city.

Although it is run by a lizardman, that is, an area is set aside in the city to rent out animal skin tents, but it also guarantees the safety of residents, which is undoubtedly the same as the function of a hotel in a human town.

This was the first time that the little girl Cress had seen such a city. She was afraid but curious, so she subconsciously approached Rhode, but kept looking around.

Crow Canyon/Mountain Fortress, this is a mountain city built between the canyons with gentle terrain. There are hills nearby. On the high hills, there is a nest of harpies, and a large number of harpies fly in and out of it.

They seem to be divided into levels according to the color of their eagle wings. The red ones are the leaders, the upper class, and the gray and black ones are ordinary harpies. However, they obviously have their own education, civilization and social division of labor, which is completely different from the one hunted by the caravan before.

There are a large number of people of various races living in the canyon, and they have their own jobs and business shops here.

The largest number of people that can be seen are dog-headed people, jackals, and lizardmen. They have a large number of sophisticated iron tools, and at the same time enslave a large number of humans, mining stones on both sides of the mountain wall.

When the caravan entered the tent area of ​​the inn and prepared to rest, a ragged human suddenly ran down the hillside in the distance, but this behavior was soon noticed by a lizardman guard. The lizardman put an arrow on his bow and shot an arrow down, hitting the man's back, and the crimson blood spread instantly.

However, the man seemed to be unaware of it and continued to run quickly until he got close to the caravan and suddenly threw something in his arms out.

Cress was next to Rhodes at this time, and she subconsciously caught the thrown object.

She also knew that this was a trouble, so she instinctively wanted to throw it out the moment she caught it, but when she saw what was inside, Cress stopped moving, and then she turned her head to look at her master.

Rhode looked sideways and saw a skinny little human baby inside the black rough cloth. The little guy seemed to know that the person who loved him the most in the world had died for him. He shed tears, but did not cry out loud.

At this time, the lizardmen and gnoll guards on all sides had surrounded him with weapons. They were all vassal races of the harpies here. Because they were supported by the labor of a large number of human slaves, they were much stronger than their counterparts in the outside world.
