"Big, the big army is coming!"
Xu Lai and Luo Mingru were chatting at the gate of the town when the guard on the arrow tower stuck his head out and shouted again.
The mayor and the sheriff just stayed outside the town with Xu Lai in such embarrassment.
The mayor neither wanted to invite Xu Lai to sit in the town, nor dared to open his mouth to chase people away, so he could only stand awkwardly outside the town.
Hearing the guards’ shouts, the mayor of Green Forest Town wanted to stand on tiptoes to take a look.
Luo Mingru no longer thought about talking to Xu Lai, and looked behind Xu Lai from time to time.
Unfortunately, he does not have Xu Lai's eagle eye skills, and he is also on the arrow tower. He has no field of vision bonus and cannot see clearly at all.
But even if you can’t see the people clearly, you can vaguely see the growing scale.
Two or three thousand people doesn’t seem to be a lot. In modern times, I don’t know if it can fill a football field, but at this time, especially when the team is not close, it still looks very shocking. of.
“Your Majesty, Baron, are those your subordinates?”
Xu Lai shook his head and said to the mayor: "Don't worry, Mr. Mayor, most of them are just ordinary people like you."
The mayor gritted his teeth and asked Xu Lai's eyes. : "Your Majesty, Baron, may I ask you, why do you want to move so many people with you?"
The mayor is now very suspicious that Xu Lai is transporting people for demons or undead, otherwise Which normal lord would bring his subjects to such a strange territory thousands of miles away.
“There’s nothing hard to answer. Since Mr. Mayor asked, I’ll tell you the origins of these people.
They are all humans who were kidnapped by orcs. There are even a few elves and fortress people inside.
The reason why they appear here is because I went to the wilderness and led them to escape.
But because of the use of random teleportation props, we were teleported to this place. "
Luo Mingru's eyes lit up and he said loudly: "It's a way to escape, right? I remember that the orc hero was rewarded with this prop when he was born. "
Luo Mingru provided Xu Lai with a lot of important information, so his interruption did not cause Xu Lai's dissatisfaction.
On the contrary, Xu Lai smiled back at him, thinking Let him reveal more useful information
However, seeing Xu Lai's smile, Luo Mingru suddenly felt a chill.
The Path of Escape is a prop that is equivalent to props such as Point Command and Bone Burial Ground. It plays an extremely important role for every hero.
Of course it is impossible for others to give this kind of thing to Xu Lai, or even sell it.
So, how can Xu Lai find a way to escape from the orc hero? Combined with what he said about going to the wilderness just now, the answer seems self-evident.
Moreover, Luo Mingru thinks that he is somewhat talented, and he has not been idle at all in the past few months.
Compared with his companions who wholeheartedly followed the nobles, Luo Mingru took a different approach and chose to start development in a small town. As expected, by constantly completing tasks and accumulating goodwill, he obtained the qualifications to build a village.
Although it is a subsidiary village, it has its own territory and an excellent archer general. He has also worked hard to train 6 level 6 rangers.
Compared with most of the fellow villagers who can't even assemble a team now, Luo Mingru is already among those who are doing well.
Even a colleague he knew who was favored by His Highness Aled had just received the title of knight and allowed him to build his own manor.
Of course, this is a self-built manor with complete independent rights, and no matter how low a knight is, it is still a title, which is much better than a commoner like him.
Luo Mingru, a subsidiary village, not only has to provide sacrifices to Green Forest Town, but also to Viscount Notting.
When the war started, his colleague decided to go to the battlefield to make military exploits and strive to upgrade the manor into a village and a town as soon as possible.
Luo Mingru felt that his small number of troops would only survive as cannon fodder on the battlefield, so he simply stayed and developed slowly.
Some time ago, when Luo Mingru heard that the war was not going well, he was still congratulating himself that his choice was extremely correct.
Now a fellow villager appeared in front of him and told him that he had killed the other fellow villagers who came to this world with him like dogs.
If Xu Lai knew what Luo Mingru was thinking now, he would definitely tell him that this is all your imagination, and the escape route is not a prop he obtained from the wilderness.
Tahan and others in the distance saw Xu Lai and others being stopped outside the town, and they didn't know what was going on.
After Tahan said something to Elvi, Harris and others, he quickly led his knights and chased after them.
As soon as Tahan and his knights left, the rangers who had been recognized as subjects by Xu Lai also swarmed in under the leadership of their respective captains.
There were only two elves. Due to their own races, they did not act rashly under Elvi's instructions.
As soon as Tahan waited for the knight to leave, Elvi also motioned for everyone to stop and rest.
The temporary cloak on his body seemed to be about to be taken off.
Like Tahan, Elvi is also very worried about Xu Lai's safety.
You know, Elvi is no different from Yu Lan, Su Ya and others. They are all 100-point loyal to Xu Lai.
For Xu Lai, Elvi is willing to do anything. And unlike Su Ya and others, Elvi, as an archangel, will not obey Xu Lai's orders without any bottom line. At least when it comes to Xu Lai's safety, she dares to make her own decisions.
As the knights gradually approached, the mayor stretched out his fingers tremblingly and said to the Sheriff on the side:
"Then, is that the Holy Knight?"< br>
The Sheriff also swallowed and said cautiously: "Looking at the equipment, they should be, but they don't have the badges of the temple.
In addition, those at the front should be Knights of Holy Light. , I recognize their war horses.”
If there is any area where recruiting soldiers can be better than ordinary warriors, it must be mounts.
Ordinary soldiers can spend a lot of time training their skills, and can wear better equipment through lords, completing tasks, and accumulating wealth.
But there is only one thing, their mounts are almost always worse than recruited soldiers, and rarely better than recruited soldiers, except for a few commander-level figures, or in places such as grasslands where horses are abundant.
As the Holy Light Knight of the temple, Pierce's high-end equipment is much better than that of Xu Lai's command. However, as the youngest Holy Light Knight of the temple, his mount may not be as good as the Holy Light Knight recruited by Xu Lai.
"Holy, what level is the Knight of Holy Light?" The mayor lowered his voice deliberately.
But people near them could still hear clearly. Xu Lai and Luo Mingru were not far away, so they could certainly hear clearly.
"It should be level 8!"
It is impossible for the Sheriff not to know the answer to this question. The reason why he dare not give a definite answer is of course because he cannot believe what he is seeing. Seen.
Everyone knows aside from the fact that Holy Light Knights and Paladins are unique knights of the temple. No one can order these Paladins except His Majesty the Pope, who takes over the divine power in place of the God of War.
Just the number of these Holy Light Knights in front of him made the Sheriff unable to believe his eyes.
You know, even the temple only has 8 public Holy Light Knights. Even if there are some who have retired or are not public, the number cannot be large.
But there are 7 Holy Light Knights in front of us. His Majesty the Pope cannot possibly take 7 Holy Light Knights out at once.
"Level 8?"
Should I say it or not, Mayor Ren has seen the world at least. Although he is extremely panicked in his heart, he can at least maintain his composure on the surface.
After hearing this, Luo Mingru almost jumped out.
The dozen level 7 rangers just now had already frightened him, and now so many level 8 knights appeared.
And if he remembered correctly, the Paladins were also level 7. At a glance, there were dozens of them.
Hundreds of knights galloped, most of them heavy-armored knights. The momentum was much greater than that of Yan Feng and the others before.
Xu Lai waved his hand and said, "Don't be impatient. They are not all at level 8. It's no big deal."
Luo Mingru glanced at Xu Lai with a resentful look. After hesitating for a long time, he said: "
Boss, why don't you let me think about it and let me think of other ways to help you. It's really not convenient for so many of you to rush to the battlefield. "
Just kidding, there are so many 7th and 8th level knights.
Not to mention destroying a Green Forest Town. If Viscount Notting's White Stone City is not protected by city walls, White Stone City will be bulldozed. It should be easy for the big boss in front of me.
What's more, he just inadvertently revealed that he has already slaughtered the hero. He felt that he was tricking him into going to the battlefield and dying. If he wanted to take him as a guide later, or simply kill him first, where would he be able to reason?
"Oh? Is there any other way?"
Luo Mingru smiled bitterly. Just now he had categorically said that other possibilities were unlikely, but now he changed his mind. The bad-tempered boss had probably already taken action.
"It all depends on people. I think we can always think of other ways."
Xu Lai nodded and said: "Then I'll trouble Brother Luo. If you can think of a good way, don't worry. , I will definitely satisfy you, Brother Luo.”
“Easy to say, easy to say!”
Luo Mingru wiped the non-existent cold sweat on his forehead, and because he was so powerful and willing to reward himself with a unit of crystals, Luo Mingru believed Xu Lai's words.
Just for a moment, Luo Mingru really couldn't think of any good solution.
Luo Mingru stopped talking, but Xu Lai continued to say to the mayor:
"I have brought so many people here, so I will not go into the city to disturb the residents of Green Forest Town.
Please also ask the mayor to help me sell the excess grain and feed in your town
I want as much as I want, and the price will be based on the market price. I will give you 20% more as compensation for bothering you. "
The mayor swallowed. At this time, the mayor's brain was squeezed by the door and he would not accept the money.
However, although Xu Lai promised to pay 20% more, the mayor did not dare Really, after all, in troubled times, soldiers are like bandits, otherwise they would not have to form a militia in Greenwood Town (End of Chapter)
