They all call me master

Chapter 597 Orange Cat. Part 1

A caravan with fifteen guards was carefully traveling through the dense forest trails in the southern part of the Holy Empire. The merchants on the carriage had nervous and worried faces.

Although he was holding a dagger tightly in his hand, judging from the extent of his trembling, it was clear that fear filled the businessman's heart.

In fact, it is not just businessmen.

The driver on the side.

The caravan guards are all like this.

Everyone is afraid.

because--

A month ago, a demon cat appeared in Saint Sith!

At first everyone dismissed this rumor, thinking it was just another trick of some damn wizard or witch.

Or maybe it's just the fuss made by some stupid people.

In the Holy Empire, something like this happens every year.

Every time, the Holy See would send deacons from the Inquisition to investigate, and some times they even alerted the Templar Knights and went with them.

But each time it was a false alarm.

Goats learn to walk upright like humans.

What unmarried lady cowshed gave birth.

Why does the archbishop of a certain place like little boys?

nonexistent!

None of them exist!

They are all false rumors!

Therefore, everyone had the same attitude towards the rumors of demon cats appearing in the south of the Holy Empire a month ago. It was not until the death of the deacon of the Inquisition sent to Saint Sith that people exclaimed that there really were demon cats.

"Master, what do you think that demon cat looks like?"

The uneasiness in his heart made the coachman subconsciously ask.

The equally frightened businessman lowered his voice after hearing the coachman's inquiry.

"It is said that it is a cat that can change into human form. It is so fast that even the deacons cannot catch up with it, and its claws are sharp and can tear steel.

It can even become invisible and undetectable.

If it weren't for the fact that the employer of this shipment was someone I couldn't offend, I would never have come to Saint Sith! "

The businessman complained, his face full of helplessness.

Businessmen originally liked this kind of long-term supply of daily necessities to a certain place. No businessman didn't like the stable income.

Especially when the reward given by the other party is not low, the businessman feels even more happy.

Of course, the businessman knows very well that the little money he earns is far less than that guy earns.

You know, that guy found six businessmen like him to supply himself.

As for where the supplied goods went?

Probably a military camp somewhere.

Moreover, it is still like a new military camp.

Apart from the military camp, the businessman could not think of any other place.

‘The war in the north of the empire has already made the quartermasters in the empire very anxious, right?

Should I go to the north and try my luck? Maybe I will become rich! ’

Businessmen have such thoughts from time to time, but they are quickly dismissed every time.

War is no joke.

That can really kill people.

This kind of safe and stable income is more suitable for him - although he also wants to replace that guy and supply directly to the military camp, but he does not have such a relationship, let alone the means to sell low-quality brown rice as polished rice. .

'Those new recruits probably want to kick that bastard's ass, right?

You kicked this guy's ass, but you can't kick mine! ’

The businessman thought in his heart and stood up from the carriage.

The businessman saw the light of the fire at the agreed place.

The appointment location is different every time.

And this time it was the farthest.

The businessman was not puzzled by this.

In order to make a lot of money, that guy would definitely lie about something. If it were him, he would definitely be more careful.

As for testing and questioning?

Businessmen dare not.

He knew very well the consequences of talking too much.

You know, the deacons of the Inquisition are happy to interrogate talkative guys.

"Hurry up and unload the goods, and then we'll leave immediately!"

the businessman shouted.

He didn't want to stay in a ghost place like Saint Sith for even a minute.

The guys from the Chamber of Commerce quickened their pace.

Like their master, they don't want to stay here.

The guards of the Chamber of Commerce investigated the surroundings responsibly. The two of them went to the temporary camp first. Among the remaining thirteen people, five were guarding the convoy, and the eight people were scattered in groups of two, and they spread out every once in a while. , there will be a whistle indicating safety - this is the most commonly used detection method by mercenaries. Although it is simple, it is very practical.

The intermittent whistles made the entire caravan feel at ease.

until--

Da da da!

There was a rapid sound of horse hooves, and the two guards who had gone to the temporary camp to conduct reconnaissance came back.

Both of them looked ugly and were breathing rapidly.

"Let's go! Let's go!"

One of the guards shouted.

"All dead!

All dead! "

The other guard obviously suffered a huge mental shock. He became a little confused and fell off his horse while muttering to himself.

Click!

Everyone in the caravan heard the sound of the opponent's neck breaking.

The sudden death made everyone in the caravan nervous.

The team that was originally moving forward immediately turned backward.

but,

Useless!

The constant, intensive blast of whistles became sparse.

Finally it stopped.

Except for the gasps of everyone in the caravan and the sound of the horses' hooves trampling the ground, the surroundings were completely silent.

When the number of people in the caravan began to decrease, the merchant's face had already turned pale.

The coachman was trembling all over and his teeth were chattering.

Because, the coachman just saw a furry claw dragging a mounted guard beside him into the shadows.

Quietly, the guard disappeared.

There was neither a dragging sound nor a scream.

The driver saw it.

The remaining people in the caravan also saw it.

When the merchant was also dragged into the darkness by his claws, the entire caravan collapsed——

"Cat demon!"

"It's the Saint Sith cat demon!"

Screams came one after another, and the caravan fled in all directions.

And soon, all such screams disappeared.

After that……

Footsteps!

Tap tap tap!

In the clear sound of footsteps, two men dressed in black and wearing unique weapons walked out of the shadows.

The weapons on their right hands were furry and orange, with sharp barbed spikes on their fingertips.

It looks like two enlarged versions of cat claws.

On the left hand of the two people is a test tube.

"What a fool!

Just because of a little money, you have fallen into a trap! "

The person who came out said softly.

"We should be grateful to these ignorant people. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have been able to find the experimental materials that adults need so quickly."

Another man laughed.

"Come on, we have to move these guys into the base before the adults wake up.

Otherwise, we will be whipped. "

The person who spoke before began to gather the caravan's carriage, moved the unconscious caravan members into the car, and began to move towards the hidden base.

Neither of them noticed an orange cat getting into the convoy.
