Mercenaries and Adventurers - Vol 4 Chapter 213
Merchants have always been extremely exaggerated. If they have a penny, they can claim three cents. For one gold coin, they dare to treat it as ten gold coins.
Compared with them, the words from the drunkard’s mouth became more believable, even the drunkard who claimed to be able to single-handedly fight against a powerful monster, such a drunkard, would not believe it.
But Ms. Feneya, who has just been rescued now, is weak, and apart from her eloquent mouth, there is no other dangerous place to be vigilant about. Life and death were in his hands, so what this lady said had to be weighed by himself.
After all, Kiel can announce that she has colluded with the bandits at any time, and by pointing to one, he can get support from the young refugees to execute him.
It took a while for the five young men under his command to find a way to move out the valuable materials from the bandit’s cave. The most troublesome thing was actually the wooden barrel containing a lot of bread. I don’t know how the bandits got it into the cave. His men finally pushed and pulled the wooden barrel back and forth before putting the wooden barrel full of dry hard bread into the cave. Go through the narrowest part of the cave.
“Well, there are fewer things than expected, but that’s it, at least we didn’t come empty-handed.” Keel kicked the dead mountain wolf Barney’s body: “At least find the culprit of tonight’s attack and kill him.” gone.”
“It’s all master knights!”
Some of the young people complimented, and Kiel accepted it proudly. Although it was a compliment, it was correct, and it was the fact.
“Very good, don’t open this box next, I’ll leave this thing here, now I’m going out to bring people in, you rest and take care of these supplies first.”
“Yes my lord.”
Seeing that they agreed, and one by one sat exhausted on the scattered supplies around, Keel buried an inconspicuous metal nail into the soil at the foot of the open space.
He then took out a small stone ball from his belt. This stone ball was emitting a gleaming ribbon-shaped light at this time, and the direction of the light was clearly the metal nail under his feet.
“It works, hey, it really works.” Keel muttered softly, and then walked towards the direction of the hillside.
It was night at this time, and it was dark and drizzling, and it was impossible to distinguish the north-south orientation by observing the direction of the mountains and the sky. But Kiel knew very well that the purpose of building this bandit lair on the hill was to take advantage of this highland, so that he could conveniently observe the situation of the trade roads close to the woods in the south from the woods.
Therefore, as long as you walk outward along the sloping **** of the hill, you will definitely be able to reach the commercial road to the south.
Keir said he did it, and when he left, he didn’t go looking for the surrendered bandit who seriously injured the sole of his foot, and let the other party hide in the woods alone.
Too many people have been killed tonight, so it’s not bad for that one.
–
Trying to keep himself walking in a straight line, after a while, Keir finally walked out of the continuous dark forest and came to the open trade road.
Standing in an open place, looking around for a while, Kiel spotted the faint light of a torch waiting on the side of the trade road from the left.
Sparse drizzle can’t extinguish the lighting torch with grease, but it can make its light weak. If it is a little farther away, the original bright light will be less than the size of a bean. If it is farther away, it will kill ants Even smaller.
Keir then walked towards another wave of waiting men.
After approaching, he first heard the loud voice of the young man under his command: “Is it Sir Kiel Knight?”
He also responded loudly: “It’s me.”
The clear and loud voice, as well as the magical white light from their waists, made the anxious young people who were waiting breathe a sigh of relief: “My lord, why did you come out from this direction? You obviously entered the forest from here.”
Kiel explained casually: “You can see the direction from the outside, but you can’t see the direction in the woods. It looks the same everywhere. I don’t have the ability of the bandits to distinguish the messy marks, so I can only judge that I am going south, so I try to keep it as clear as possible. Straight out of the woods.”
“My lord, where are the others? Has there been a fight?”
Kilton paused and said, “One of my own was killed by a sneak attack, but the bandits have all been wiped out. He also killed the culprit of the bandit attack tonight, huh, it’s considered revenge for all the victims.” .”
After Keir walked in, he saw the young people sitting in the carriage one by one, with their wrists connected to each other. It was not like coping with the cold because of the rain, but it was a measure to keep each other safe and confident.
He frowned and asked, “Who are you?”
The two young men in the lead leaned on the side of the carriage and carefully looked at Kiel’s image for a while, and even got close to sniffing it. After smelling a burst of blood, they were greatly relieved: “It’s really Mr. Knight. .”
“Great, I thought it was coming again.”
“What’s wrong? What happened?”
Keir was confused, so he asked again.
Only then did the subordinates tell him what happened here before, and what strange incidents occurred.
It turned out that not long after he led people into the woods to find the bandit’s lair, the young men waiting in the carriage heard Keel’s own shout from the woods, the voice was exactly the same, and it was accompanied by the sound of fighting.
That voice in the darkness of the depths of the woods called to the young men outside to come into the woods to help him, to assist him in fighting the multitude of bandits.
At that time, many young people subconsciously jumped off the carriage to support the battle, but it was the calmer one of the two young leaders who recognized the major loopholes in the words of the strange voice.
“What loophole?”
Kiel lifted his visor, revealing his immature face full of solemn expressions.
At that time, the young man who saw through what he didn’t know said: “My lord, if you can’t beat the enemy, do you still need us to help fight? When we were fighting in the south of the clearing, you told us to retreat and not interfere. At that time You dealt with dozens of bandits by yourself, but you killed them all.”
Kiel patted the top of his head and made a loud metallic sound: “So that’s right, if I can’t deal with the enemy, it won’t be of much use for you to go in. If there is such a situation, you should stay as far away as possible.” Better.”
He turned his head to look at the woods, and stared at the dark and gloomy behemoth: “So what happened next?”
“We argued for a while, and I persuaded everyone and asked everyone to join hands and ignore what the voice said. It didn’t know anything, and after a while, it disappeared.”
“Very well, I hope you will always be so careful about those things in the deep forest. Better listen to those warning songs and short poems that are sung in the villages everywhere.”
Keir clapped his hands: “Now, everyone, get out of the carriage. Well, there are five people left in the carriage and the driver. The others will follow me and bring back all the supplies found in the bandit’s lair in the woods. Although there are not many things, And it’s not an easy way to go.”
After all the young people jumped off, a few people dared not go into the woods, especially after what happened before, Keir let them do as they wished, and it was not forcing anyone to go anyway.
Then Kiel whistled, called Bloodlicker, led it in the middle of the team, held a glowing stone, found the closest place to the bandit’s lair outside the woods, and then led people into it.
–
Afterwards, there was nothing to talk about. They didn’t encounter any strange sounds made by impostors, nor were they attacked by wild animals. After walking to the bandit’s lair on the hill deep in the woods, all of them fought back against the bandits. , Many supplies were transported out of the woods several times back and forth, and loaded onto the wagon convoy waiting outside the woods.
When the dark and gloomy sky shone a little, they had already returned to the main force.
Ms. Feneya and her sisters leaned against a carriage full of animal skin bedding, and fell asleep with the rhythm of the swaying carriage. Kiel, on the other hand, followed the convoy on a blood lick. While chatting with the young people sitting in the carriage, he took off his gloves and stroked a ball of fur in his arms.
Meowing sounds sounded from his arms, and Keel was holding a jerboa’s bald tail, bouncing and teasing the kitten in his arms. And this little thing that is not afraid of people keeps trying to stand up, pulling and grabbing the tail of the jerboa that is swinging back and forth.
Its belly was bulging, and when Keir’s men found it, it had eaten all the jerboas in the bandit’s cave, leaving only the tail next to its mouth.
It seems that it regards this thing as a toy and keeps fiddled with it on the ground.
Keel therefore teased the little furball with this thing as well.
“Lululu, I can’t catch it, I can’t catch it. Lululu, I can’t catch it, I can’t catch it.”
The kitten scratched for a while, then opened its mouth and spit out some lumps of jerboa fur, then lazily jumped into the horse’s hair in front of the saddle and crawled down.
The blood lick snorted, and didn’t like having other things on its back. After Keel smoothed the mane with his hands, the horse continued to walk obediently.
In order to prevent the kitten from falling off the horse and fleeing, Keel took a wooden cat cage found in the bandit cave from the weapon rack behind him, drove the kitten away twice, and put the kitten into the wooden cat cage.
Regardless of the cat meowing to get out, Keel puts the cat cage on the horse’s back.
Ahead, in a bright spot, was an open space where hundreds of refugees gathered.
–
Everyone in the open space was safe and sound. Even though many people had experienced the tragic killing and fighting in the first half of the night, they were still frightened and frightened, but they were still sitting together drowsily at dawn, or even now.
Because he had been lethargic for a while, Priest Batar was still in good spirits at this time. Not only did he not sleep, but he also used the temporarily supplemented Saturn’s divine power to treat some young refugees who were critically injured, which was better than nothing.
“Kill, how are you doing?”
When he saw the carriage coming back, he trotted over with someone to inquire.
Kiel pointed to a carriage dedicated to transporting corpses: “We lost one person here, but the robbers on the other side are basically dead. One carriage is the harvest, one is the dead body, and the other is our own people.”
The mad Will was lying side by side with the corpses at this time, counting the names of his enemies madly and viciously. When the young people loaded supplies and corpses, they were not polite, and stuffed the lunatic enemy who killed one of their companions with the corpse.
This actually startled the Batar priest who led the people to dispose of the corpse: “Isn’t there still a living person? What’s the matter, just put the person and the corpse together like this.”
Keir jumped off the horse, carried the charred corpses on his shoulders, and then said: “An enemy with good sword skills, but the spirit is not very good, and he will go crazy when he fights. I saw that it is not a fake Crazy, really crazy. Listening to his accent, he doesn’t look like a local, and even though he’s mixed with bandits, he doesn’t look like a gang.”
“I asked when I was executing the bandit leader. Although the man named Will had a tight mouth, that mountain wolf Barney still guessed that this man was a hunted man without roots. Hey, he treated me as a What about the killer who chased him down?”
Keir shook his head, carried the two corpses on his shoulders, and walked to the dark side of the open space, where the young refugees who were attacked and died were separated into categories from the bandits who attacked everyone.
After so many people died, Keir, who had a keen sense, even felt that the place where the corpses were placed was a little weird.
That was a feeling that made him feel far more uncomfortable than the corpse pit at the bottom of the bandit’s lair.
He even vaguely felt that if the nearly 200 corpses killed in these battles were left alone, it would take a few days and nights for these corpses to undergo some terrible changes.
What Kiel didn’t know was that it was the early morning of sunrise, and the priests of the Church of the God of the Dead had just woken up in the Baishi City Wall checkpoint a certain distance away. Inducted out of the pass and walked eastward.
They just got up, and they felt the feeling of gathering negative energy that they didn’t feel before they fell asleep last night.
The scale is not small, even if it is more than ten or twenty kilometers away, they can feel it.
–
Keel threw the two corpses of bandits on his shoulders with only their close-fitting clothing left over to the rows of bandit corpses placed on the ground, right next to the corpses at the very edge.
“My lord, can you help us, throw it away for us, everyone doesn’t want to go there, there are so many corpses, and they belong to the enemy, just looking at them makes people unable to eat.”
Without saying a word, Keir took the corpses of the other robbers and threw them one by one, barely side by side with the corpses in front.
After dawn, these corpses will be burned, and Keir is more determined to dispose of these corpses as soon as possible.
After finishing the corpses of his own people and the enemy, Kiel came to his carriage with two boxes of different materials, one large and one small. The small box got into the carriage and was sent to the dream stronghold under the cover of the carriage. middle. The goblin liked the gold and silver coins that Kiel casually dumped on the silver plate on the ground of the stronghold, stacked them up, and then pushed them all down in one go.
And Keel found that the little goblin also liked the small metal box. He fiddled with and threw away the killing mechanism on it (Kiere put it aside specially), and then closed the small box. I don’t know where to find the paint. Write and draw on it, and dress this thing up like a small house.
It proudly circled the metal box that had turned into a small house a few times, then muttered something, moved its fingers away, and changed with a bang, the small metal box really turned into a small metal house no more than 30 centimeters high.
The shape of this house is so vivid that it is similar to a human house, and it is not a house for ordinary people, but a house carefully decorated by those wealthy people.
But only thirty centimeters high.
But it is enough for a little goblin that is no more than the size of a palm. Keir sat on the side, eating the hard jerky monster meat in his mouth, watching the little goblin with amused finish, opened the small metal door and went in.
The door was left open, so Keel could see the empty interior of the tiny house, lacking the furniture and objects of life.
But the goblin couldn’t be bothered, it screamed, and the Kils outside the small metal house brought the gold and silver coins that fell on the ground, and they grew arms and legs one after another, scrambling to be the first, and ran around the small metal house laughing and laughing.
Some of them got in through the gate of the metal hut, and some stood scattered around the metal hut, just like the militia that Kendall had trained for several years.
Keel leaned down and leaned over to watch curiously.
I found that the furniture in the room quickly increased, and it was shining golden.
It turned out that the little goblin tapped a gold coin with his hand in the room, and the gold coin with arms and legs screamed “Ah!”, twisting and deforming into a chair.
Point your finger again, and with the squeal of small coins, there is an extra table in the room.
Kiel was so surprised that he forgot to chew the monster jerky in his mouth. He stared blankly at this little elf with weird abilities, turning his spoils of coins into a whole set of golden furniture for human life.
I have to mention that this little elf specially placed gold coins in the house as furniture, while outside the house, silver coins with grown arms and legs were scattered and lined up around. I don’t know what the little elf planned to turn them into.
In a short while, all the furniture in the room will be available. The little goblin raised its long beard triumphantly, walked out of the metal house door with an unrecognizable pace. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
When it came outside the house, it was even more proud to see Kiel’s surprised face, and then he bowed left and right with his two little hands, pointing at the surrounding silver coins.
Hush, whistling, accompanied by the faint flashes of light and the screams of coins, the coins scattered around the metal hut have turned into silver crops and ‘tall’ ornamental plants.
So, on the edge of the colorful pond, on a clearing of the elf’s silver board, a metal villa hut that does not know whether the property belongs to Kiel or the goblin appears here.
Keir lay on the ground, excitedly looking at the transformed house, and was amazed.
And the ‘owner’ of the house, a goblin with a beard up to the sky, summoned the huge snail shell he used to use, and parked it in the open space outside the house just like parking a car.
“snort!”
It proudly circled around its hut a few times, not knowing what it thought of. So it hurriedly closed the door of the hut, and flew away on the snail shell.
Keel waited for it to go far away, then leaned his head and opened his eyes wide to observe this dreamy metal cabin.
“It’s so delicate. I didn’t expect this little thing to have such abilities. However, these are all my money. If it’s so difficult, I keep it for myself? No, I have to find a way.”
Keel fiddled with the small metal window on the second floor of the hut, hooked it open with his nails, and looked inside.
It was found that there was also a set of human furniture inside.
“It’s really good.”
But with a bang, Kiel accidentally broke another small metal window and fell down.
“Oops! Why is this thing so weak!”
Keel panicked like a child who’d snapped off a friend’s toy limbs.
