Chapter 1983 Caravan
The spacious caravan gathering place in God King City is surrounded by various goods and luggage, and the beasts of burden make low sounds from time to time.
"Okay, everyone, take a rest first. The caravan will set off in an hour. This trip will not be easy. Everyone, please cheer up!" A middle-aged man shouted to everyone.
In the crowd, a tall young man took two steps forward and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Brother, what's the name of the employer? It's better for us to know something in advance."
When the middle-aged man heard this, he slapped his forehead suddenly, with a slightly annoyed look on his face: "Look at my memory! This employer's name is Coffee, and she is a young beauty. Even though she is young, , but he is extremely talented in painting, and he is somewhat famous in our Heavenly Fire God Realm.”
"Coffee painter? I heard that she offended some people because of a painting. Those people are not good people." The young man had obviously heard of coffee and frowned slightly.
"So, everyone must have some snacks this time. After completing this escort mission, each person will receive three hundred divine coins," the middle-aged man said loudly.
With the encouragement of money, the guards were gearing up and their morale was high. They each began to check their weapons and equipment in preparation for the upcoming trip.
The guys in the caravan were also making final preparations nervously and orderly, tightening the reins of the beasts of burden and arranging the bundles of goods. A busy scene unfolded at the moment when the departure was about to begin.
In this caravan, a large and ornately decorated carriage stood out. Several people were sitting in the car. At this moment, the atmosphere inside the car seemed a bit dull and depressing.
The fat man frowned slightly, with a depressed look on his face, and said to Liu Jun beside him: "Brother Liu, no, Sister Liu, there is really nothing wrong with our dress this time, but the key point is what if I want to pee?" Do?”
Liu Jun rolled his eyes helplessly and said angrily: "What can I do? Hold it in! At least you have to leave the sphere of influence of those birdmen first"
Hearing what Liu Jun said, the other people in the car fell silent. Their current status is that they are coffee friends of their employer.
Coffee had never even met them in person, but shopkeeper Qian Liu had already greeted them in advance, so they accepted the task and followed the caravan.
"Let's go!" At this moment, the guard captain's loud and powerful order came from outside the car. Following this order, the entire caravan began to take action.
The guards mounted their horses and lined up neatly on both sides of the caravan. The caravan's carriages moved slowly one after another, their wheels rolling, and they drove towards the outside of the God King's City.
At this time, the lively atmosphere in the God King City gradually dissipated due to the end of the Ten Thousand Years Fire Ceremony. The crowds on the streets gradually decreased, and the once bustling Central Street became a little deserted.
Not only their caravan, but many other caravans in the city also started their return journey.
In the process of advancing, the caravan's carriage made a "creeping" sound, and the guards were constantly observing the surroundings. Although it was unlikely that they would be attacked around the God King City, they were professionals and had to show their strength. Professional qualities.
The caravan had only been walking for less than half an hour when it suddenly stopped, as if it had been stopped by someone.
What was blocking the caravan was the group of birdmen from Qianyu City. The iconic wings on the backs of these birdmen shine with a strange light, which is particularly dazzling in the sunlight.
"Everyone, get out of the car and check!" the leading four-winged messenger shouted loudly.
Liu Jun and his companions exchanged glances with each other, and they all saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes. Afterwards, they got off the carriage one after another.
Several envoys from both wings walked forward with neat steps, holding portraits. With sharp eyes, they carefully compared the portrait with that of everyone in the caravan. The lines of the characters in the portrait are very clear, as if they are looking for some important person. They checked one by one, not missing any detail, with focused and serious expressions.
After careful comparison, the envoys found that there was no problem, and they waved to let them go. The members of the caravan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to get back into the car and continue moving forward.
On a huge rock not far away, there were also several Eden Messengers standing, looking down at the caravan. One of them turned out to be the Six-Winged Messenger. His wings were spread several feet long and exuded an awe-inspiring aura.
"Oh, let me go. These aristocratic ladies are a bit too ugly. From my taste, they make me want to vomit." A four-winged messenger looked at Liu Jun and the others, his face full of disgust. expression.
"It's indeed a bit ugly. The ugliness is quite unique." The six-winged prince just glanced at him lightly and then looked away, with the same look of disgust.
The caravan continued to move forward slowly on the winding road. The sound of horse hooves and the rolling wheels were intertwined. Time passed slowly in this regular sound. They drove for more than two hours. The sun in the sky gradually set in the west, and the sky gradually darkened little by little. Until it was completely shrouded in night, the caravan finally stopped completely and prepared to rest here.
This journey can be said to be full of twists and turns. The caravan was stopped several times by the birdmen for careful inspection. The birdmen looked alert and walked back and forth around the caravan, scanning every person and vehicle with their eyes. Fortunately, Liu Jun and the others were very skilled in the art of disguise. Whether it was the disguise of their appearance or the imitation of their demeanor, they were all flawless without any flaws. This allowed them to escape the Birdman's suspicion time and time again without being seen through. As night fell, everyone in the caravan began to make arrangements for rest. Several carriages carrying people moved slowly, approaching each other, and finally formed a tight circle. The carriages carrying goods carefully pressed against the carriages carrying people, forming a larger circle. This layout is obviously a defensive posture to guard against possible dangers.
"How can this group of people really attack us this late at night?" The fat man frowned, opened his mouth slightly, and muttered in a low voice.
However, as if in response to his question, the sound of "swish swish" suddenly sounded the moment he finished speaking.
The sound came from far to near, sharp and urgent, as if it was the alarm bell sounded by the god of death. Immediately afterwards, countless arrows roared down from the darkness like dense raindrops. Under the cover of night, the figures of those arrows were looming, but with incomparable lethality, they shot straight towards the caravan.
When Liu Jun heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He felt helpless in his heart. He glared at the fat man fiercely, secretly complaining about this guy's crow's mouth.
"Enemy attack!" the guard captain roared at the top of his lungs, and his voice spread far in the silent night sky. This shout, like a battle horn, instantly broke the tranquility of the night, and the entire caravan was in chaos.
Fortunately, the guards of this caravan are not ordinary people. They are all experienced veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time. When encountering this sudden attack, although there was a brief moment of panic at first, they quickly calmed down and quickly and orderly plunged into the fierce battle with their long-term accumulated combat literacy and instinctive reactions. .
When the first wave of arrows hit, the caravan's carriage played a vital blocking role. Most of the densely shot arrows hit the sturdy carriage, greatly reducing the lethality of the arrow rain. There were only a few unlucky ones who were hit by stray arrows and suffered minor or serious injuries.
"What should I do? Do you want to go out and help?" The strong man with tiger stripes looked at Liu Jun anxiously, his eyes revealing his enthusiasm for fighting.
"Wait a minute, our current attire is not suitable." Liu Jun frowned slightly and replied calmly.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
At this moment, all of them were dressed like noble ladies, with exquisite clothing and elegant accessories, showing the style of noble ladies in every gesture. If he rushes out and kills everyone at this extremely critical moment, his carefully disguised identity will be exposed in an instant, which will inevitably cause unexpected trouble.
Just as they were talking, "swish, swish, swish", the second wave of arrows struck instantly like a violent storm.
The arrows shot this time were obviously different from those before. They seemed to be fired from more powerful weapons such as crossbows.
These arrows roared through the night sky with fierce momentum, and their penetrating power was extremely strong. They originally thought that there were freight carriages blocking the perimeter and the carriage they were riding in would be safe and sound. However, they did not expect that several arrows penetrated all the obstacles and shot straight into Liu Jun's carriage.
You know, there are several freight carriages acting as barriers outside their carriage. The power of this second wave of arrow rain cannot be underestimated.
"Go out and fuck them, these guys stabbed me in the butt!" The strong man with tiger stripes looked ferocious, and veins popped out on his forehead. He was pulling a crossbow arrow out of his butt with all his strength. The arrow of the crossbow arrow still had a trace of it. Bloodstains.
Fortunately, he had rough skin and thick flesh, so the crossbow arrow only penetrated a little. If it had been anyone else, he would have collapsed to the ground in pain. But even so, this sudden arrow still made the tiger-striped man grin his teeth in pain, and an uncontrollable anger surged in his heart.
"Wait a minute, these guards are not that simple." Just when the tiger-striped man was about to rush out at all costs, a steady and deep voice sounded. It was Yao Guangxiao and Boss Yao who spoke.
Yao Guangxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze was like a torch, and he quietly observed every move around the carriage in the darkness. Judging from his many years of experience, these seemingly ordinary guards must have unknown methods.
Sure enough, the next second, the situation suddenly changed. Just a few sharp "swish, swish, swish" sounds were heard, and five or six illumination bombs rushed into the sky like meteors. In an instant, the entire sky was illuminated as bright as day, and the intense light exposed everything around it. The enemies that were hiding in the darkness and approaching quietly were now unable to hide.
Immediately afterwards, several guards took action quickly. They held crossbows and moved in unison, aiming steadily at the shooting openings specially set aside around the carriage.
With a "bang bang bang" sound of crossbow arrows being fired, densely packed crossbow arrows rained down on the enemy. Each crossbow arrow flew towards the target with great power.
There was a scream all around instantly, one after another. It was obvious that the enemy suffered heavy losses in this attack. Many people were hit by crossbow arrows. Some fell to the ground and struggled in pain, while others screamed in despair. The enemy formations that were originally hidden in the dark were instantly thrown into chaos and chaos.
"Release the demon dogs!" the guard captain ordered, his voice loud and majestic.
Immediately afterwards, a low roar came from several carriages. Then, huge demon dogs jumped out of the carriage like lightning. These monster dogs are as big as calves and exude a frightening aura. Their eyes flashed with a fierce red light, sharp fangs were exposed in their mouths, and they exuded a pungent fishy smell.
As soon as the demon dogs appeared, they rushed towards the surrounding enemies like wild horses. Their movements are agile and extremely fast, and they rush into the enemy group in an instant. The demon dogs opened their bloody mouths and bit and pounced on the enemies. Wherever they went, the enemies fell down screaming. The enemy tried to resist, but was vulnerable to the demon dog's powerful strength and ferocious attacks. The whole scene fell into chaos and blood.
