Chapter 903: Attack in the Bamboo Forest
After walking for another ten minutes, the convoy arrived at the small village the driver mentioned. This village is not big, with only one street. In fact, this street is the loess road from the royal capital to the outside world. This village was also built to facilitate the business travelers who passed by to rest midway.
There are not many houses in the village, only about a dozen or so, all built on both sides of the road, and they are basically small restaurants and hotels, because it is already six hours away from the royal capital. , if you are walking, it will take even longer.
Ewen's four carriages stopped in this small village. They were said to be carriages but in fact the carriages were not pulled by horses. Horses did not have the endurance to travel long distances, but the strong and powerful horse-footed dragons had a certain fighting ability. (Ground-walking dinosaur) is much better. It has good endurance and fast speed. Just like its name, it is very good at running on the ground. It can be said to be a smaller version of the Velociraptor.
“Hey boss, give us some strength.”
In addition to Ewen Buti and others, the people who got off the car were also the mercenaries he hired. How could we not hire a few powerful mercenaries to protect us during this long journey? In the royal capital, the sixth-level mercenaries Soldiers are not hard to find.
The owner of the shop ordered the waiter to feed the beasts. Although there are stables to guard the monsters on the left and back of the shop, the stables are full of monsters eating grass and food. Ewen· Buti's eight horse-footed dragons had no choice but to let them feed on the road.
It was lunch time at this time, and the weather was very hot, so there were many people sitting in the small shop. Buti asked for two large tables, and they, a group of twenty-three, were able to sit down. I ordered some wine and food, and the food was of course very good. Buti was not stingy in this regard.
After drinking a few glasses of ice-cold wine, the coachmen took a long breath: "Wow, it's so comfortable."
Buti said: "Thank you for your hard work."
The coachmen smiled and said: "It's okay, I just traveled such a long way, so it's not very tiring."
The old mage who had been following Buti asked: "Mr. Ewen, where do you plan to go after leaving the royal capital? "
"I haven't thought about it in detail yet."
"That's it. Ah." The old mage is not stupid. He can now see that Buti's hasty departure from the royal capital must be related to the matter of the Ten Thousand Eyes Stone: "But there must be a way, is it just walking aimlessly?"
Buti thought for a while and said, "I think we should go northwest."
"Northwest? Going to Cizera or Maiori?" the coachman asked.
"No." Buti shook his head: "I will not go to either province. I want to leave Santa Vicoia."
The coachman and guards were surprised: " Going abroad?"
A guard said: "There are some small countries to the west from Saint Picea. We are almost at the seaside. Those countries are on the edge of the Sea of Forgotten. They are full of wasteland and desert. I heard that they are very poor."
Buti said: "It doesn't matter if you are poor. Haven’t you had enough of the bustling city? If anyone doesn’t want to go with you, I won’t force you.”
The guard said: "Mr. Ewen, I didn't mean that, I'm just surprised by your decision."
Buti said: "I'm tired of the life in the royal capital. I don't want to stay any longer. I just want to Change the country, change the way of life.”
The steward said: “Sir, then you are in St. Piccolo. What to do with Ya's business?" Buti said: "The business here can be continued, and it will not affect anything abroad."
The old mage sighed: "Okay, now that you have decided, sir, we will go abroad with you."
"Thank you for your understanding." Buti said: "No more words, let's finish our meal quickly and hit the road."
After lunch, Buti and his group continued to walk away from the royal capital. , because the horse-footed dragon's feet were very fast, it didn't take long for the four carriages to leave the plain area and enter the mountains and hills.
After walking for a while, we were probably very deep into the forest. Suddenly, figures flashed in the bamboo forest. A group of people dressed in yellow, wearing masks, rushed up the mountain, staring directly at the four carriages on the path.
"Enter." The leader in yellow waved his hand, and the two men in yellow immediately slashed at the carriage with two blades and fighting spirit.
Swish, a magical blade slash and sword energy instantly cut off the necks of the first two horse-footed dragons, sinking into the soil on the ground, leaving two slash marks. Pillars of blood spurted out from the neck of the Hippodrome more than half a meter high like a fountain.
The carriage that lost its direction crashed into the bamboo forest. In fact, the three carriages also stopped immediately. The driver, who was covered in blood, shouted in panic: "Ah, there are robbers and robbers!" And the people in the car stopped. The mercenaries and guards immediately jumped out of the car.
At this time, fifteen men in yellow had quickly surrounded the four carriages, and the mercenary leader said angrily: "You dare to rob here, you are too courageous!"
There are no unnecessary words at all. The people in yellow completely ignored what the mercenary leader said about protection and magic, and went straight to kill!
“Arrogant!” the mercenary leader yelled angrily, took out the long stick from his waist and swung it, and a crescent spear more than four meters long stretched out. The other mercenaries also showed their weapons to guard. The killing started on this mountain road!
On the carriage, Ewen Buti hugged the crying child and kept chanting: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." But while he was comforting his son that he was not afraid, his own face was full of panic. .
The old mage stuck his head out of the car door, took a look at the situation outside, and then came back and said to Buti: "Don't worry, although we don't have many mercenaries, they are all sixth-level masters hired with a lot of money. They will definitely be able to protect you, sir." "Safety."
Buti nodded blankly, still looking panicked.
The old mage said: "I'll go down to help. I'll be right next to the car. I won't be too far away." He immediately got out of the car and went to support.
Outside the carriage, a fierce battle between the men in yellow and the mercenaries was going on. The leader in yellow looked coldly at the side and said in a low voice: "These mercenaries are not bad. After the task fails, the task target Biao was indeed very careful." As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes, took two steps and flew into the air. He took out a black iron arrow from the quiver behind his back and drew a full bow. The bow string vibrated, and the arrow shot out. With a whoosh, it penetrated directly through the target's heart.
“Ah~!” Seeing that the sixth-level archmage beside him was killed by an arrow, the mercenary leader’s face couldn’t help but change color. He looked up at the leader in yellow clothes who was flying in the air, holding the The crescent spear swept away the man in yellow in front of him, and he lifted the spear and slashed it with a water blade.
The leader in yellow clothes spun around and crushed the incoming water blade light wave with a wind kick. However, the powerful force still shook him far away, and he said "Oh" again: " He is a very strong person, and his knight skills also include the ability of advanced fighting spirit."
On the mainland, it is most common to practice knight and warrior skills together, and you can develop the strength of a true knight and a high-level warrior. It can no longer be considered a low hand.
