Twenty Seven Years - Chapter 441

Although the secret site for receiving Verak is close to the common junction of the Kingdom of Sdar, the Bash Empire, and the Monrego Empire, due to the lack of intercommunicating railways with Monrego and the chaotic warlords, several neighboring countries have cut off the connection with Montrego. Brother’s traffic, so the three had to use walking and other methods of travel, and it took three days to enter Menglege’s territory.

   “Is this Montrego?”

  On the morning of September 24th, a group of people walked through a forest and finally saw a village.

   “Yes.” Murphy looked into the distance, and concluded that this was Montrego’s village based on the architectural style alone. He replied to Connie with an unquestionable tone, his eyes flickering.

   “Go and see.” Verak walked forward.

   Several people couldn’t eat or sleep well along the way. It would be great if they could rest and recover in the village.

  Murphy did not raise his foot in a hurry, and reminded: “This is Antonio’s territory, we have to be careful.”

  Antonio, one of the warlord forces in Montregori. With many followers, he is a powerful candidate to reunify Montrego and end the civil war that has lasted for several years or more than ten years.

   It’s just that he acted brutally, and many people didn’t want to see the day when he completely ruled Montrego.

On the way here, Veraker knew about this person and his corresponding sphere of influence, but the more he knew, the more he kept on walking: “Isn’t Menglege like this everywhere? Where are you going?”

   “Let’s go.” Connie followed up first.

  Murphy finally caught up with Veraker at a fast pace.

  The village is very dilapidated, and it seems that there are only a few dozen decent earthen houses. Looking at the dead silence, we can only use the faintly visible traces of life to judge that this place has not been abandoned, but is still inhabited.

   “Be careful.” As he got closer to the village, Verak stuffed one hand into his pocket and held the pistol hidden in it.

  Murphy and Connie both faintly sensed that something was wrong here, slowed down their steps, and bowed their bodies to be ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

  An accident will happen just after arriving in Montrego?

  Verak scanned the places in front of him vigilantly, thinking about the reason why there was no one in broad daylight despite seeing people living there.

   “Forget it, step back.”

   When he was 40 to 50 meters away from the houses, Vilak, who was keenly aware of the danger, stopped Murphy and Connie beside him, and began to retreat towards the village.

   The idea of ​​staying overnight and resting must not continue.

   This place looked like an unusual village. Verak would rather take a detour than put himself and the other two in danger.

  Murphy and Connie felt the same way, and neither raised any objections. They retreated while grabbing the gun.

   “Don’t run!”

   “You are surrounded!”

   “Raise your hands! Or I’ll kill you!”

  The three of them had just taken a few steps back when dozens of villagers armed with knives and guns rushed out of the empty room and shouted loudly.

   “Go!” Verac couldn’t understand the other party’s words, but he felt the threat of death from his tone, and immediately took out his gun and fired several shots in front, beckoning Murphy and Connie to escape first.

   “There are also behind!” Murphy turned to the rear, and saw no fewer than thirty villagers popping up without anyone noticing, half-surrounding them.

   “Rush out!” Verak glanced back and said decisively.

  He saw that this group of villagers were not good at face-to-face, and all of them were ruthless characters who had seen blood, and there was a high probability that they had human lives on their hands.

  If the villagers in the village rush over and join the villagers behind, then they will never be able to escape again.

   “Yes!” Murphy aimed at the empty left side, and rushed over with big strides.

   “Comrade Veraker! You go first!” Connie insisted on her most important task, to replace Veraker in the rear, delay the villagers as much as possible, and cover him and Murphy to leave safely.

   “Don’t waste time! Go!” Verac didn’t plan to stand still at all, staged the scene of “you go first, or you go first”, and fought and retreated with Connie, barely chasing Murphy who opened the way.

Fortunately, most of these villagers are armed with knives, and their guns are basically earthen guns. Their power, accuracy, and reloading speed are very poor. It is difficult to pose an effective threat to them at a long distance. Many people swarmed up, and the three of Veraker died in less than ten seconds.

   However, their counterattack was not much better.

  The three of them were busy running, and the shooting was more to deter the villagers. After more than ten shots, they only wounded one villager.

   “Hurry up!” Verak saw that there were even many children who were only twelve or thirteen years old among the villagers. Apart from being shocked, he became even more afraid of this group of people.

   Montrego is so messed up!

   What kind of villagers are these? They are clearly a bandit den where the whole people are bandits!

   If they are really going to be arrested, these people won’t care who they are from the International Equality League, what they are doing on this trip, and if they **** the gold coupons, they will be slaughtered and insulted!

“boom!”

It was rare for Verak to hit an enemy’s thigh, and the man fell to the ground in pain, but it didn’t affect the morale of the others. Braving the hail of bullets, the others got closer to the three of them to about 20 meters in an instant .

“boom!”

   “Bang bang!”

  The local guns of the villagers are also attacking violently.

   “Whoosh!”

   There was a sound of breaking the air, and Verak’s hairs stood on end, and he followed Murphy and Connie to flee from the side.

   Seven or eight seconds later, the villagers in the front and back converged, forming a bigger momentum and rushing towards the three of them.

   “Don’t look back! Run quickly!” Verac, who stayed at the end, was responsible for delaying the enemy, urging Murphy and Connie to flee as soon as possible.

  However, he didn’t expect too much to get rid of this group of people.

  The opponent seems to be dispatched by the whole village. Even if they occupy a favorable terrain to start a firefight with them, all the ammunition added up will not be able to kill one-third of the opponent. What’s more, the opponent must be more familiar with the terrain and carry a lot of weapons.

   “Whoosh!”

   While Veraker was thinking about how to get out of danger, there was another sound of piercing through the air, followed by an arrow piercing his shoulder.

   “Villac!” Connie, who was about to take over from Verac to be in charge of the rear, saw that Verac was hit by an arrow, staggered and leaned against a tree, and hurriedly turned over to help, “How are you?!”

   “It’s okay!” Verak pulled out the arrow and stabilized himself enduring the pain.

   But before the two of them could continue to flee, Murphy in front stepped on the traps set up by the villagers and fell to the ground on his back.

  He was wounded, and Murphy’s leg was caught in the trap, and he couldn’t even stand up, let alone walk and run away, and the villagers rushed to him.

  Escape is impossible.

   Desperate resistance can only end in death, and the only way to survive is to reveal your identity and negotiate with this group of people.

   “Throw away the guns!” Verak threw the guns aside, and raised his hands with difficulty, expressing surrender, “Murphy! Can you still do it?! Communicate with them!”

   “Say… what?!” Murphy curled up on the ground, feeling like his legs were about to be pinched off.

   “We surrender, everything can be discussed!” Virak said.

  It is too worthless to die at the hands of a group of bandits. If they are just asking for money, they should have enough money. If not enough, they can still raise money. In short, before the matter is not dead, we must do our best to fight for any chance of life!

  Murphy transcribed it into Montrego according to Verac’s words.

  As soon as he finished speaking, the other party’s black crowd rushed to him. The few leaders first pushed Veraker and Connie down, and then cursed and said words that Veraker could not understand.

   “It’s okay! Calm down! Don’t provoke them anymore!” Veraker said anxiously seeing Connie who was angry and wanted to resist.

  These people did not come up and shoot them to death, but controlled them, indicating that there is still a chance to talk. If Connie resisted forcefully at this time and killed the person in front of her, there was a high possibility that there would be no discussion, and the three of them would be beaten to death immediately by other villagers who surrounded them to vent their anger.

   “Are you okay?!” Connie suppressed her anger and cared about Verak’s bleeding wound.

   “I’m fine!” Verak’s hands were pulled behind his back by the villagers and tied up. This inevitably affected the deep wound, which made him break out in cold sweat, “Murphy! Are you okay?!”

  Under the noise, Murphy reluctantly responded from another place: “It’s okay! I’ll negotiate with them!”

   “Show us! Ask them what they want!” Valak shouted.

   “Boom!”

  The villager in charge of controlling Verak hit him on the head with the **** of his gun, trying to shut him up.

   “Uh!” Verak was dizzy and speechless immediately.

   “Comrade Verac!” Connie reacted fiercely when she saw this scene.

   Soon, she too was shot.

  Verak’s vision was blurred, and his ears were filled with yells in Montrego. In a trance, he felt himself being lifted up.

   When the pain and dizziness disappeared, at least two hours passed.

   “Comrade Verac, Comrade Verac.”

   There was a soft cry in front of him, and Verak, who had been in a coma for a while, opened his eyes.

  I saw myself lying on the bed, and on the other side of the bed, Murphy, whose injured leg was roughly bandaged, and Connie, who looked fine, were all looking at him.

   “Are you… all right? This is…” The villagers seemed to hate them, the force of the gun **** was so strong that Verak was completely dazed when he was smashed, completely unaware of what happened in the past few hours.

   “We’re fine, the villagers helped to deal with it.” Murphy glanced at his legs, “It’s a misunderstanding.”

   “Misunderstanding?” Verak didn’t understand.

“There are bandits who come to rob the village from time to time. It’s about time again these days, so the villagers are always on guard. It just so happened that we came over and they mistook them for bandits. That’s it…” Connie dipped her hands in cold water The square scarf covered the big bag on the head.

“I showed them our belongings and explained the situation to them. Although they hadn’t heard of the International Equality League, they didn’t look like we were here to hurt them, so they put us here. “Murphy added following Connie’s words.

  Verak breathed a sigh of relief.

   I am glad that the three of them were not seriously injured, and I am also glad that no one was killed on the side of the villagers. Otherwise, even if it was a misunderstanding, this matter would not end well.

“It’s really unlucky, I just came across this kind of thing… I’m sorry, Comrade Verak, I didn’t protect you well…” Connie felt a little guilty. Her duty was to protect Verak, but in the end, it was Verak who was in danger. Time was in the rear for them, so that the arrow was wounded.

“As long as they are still alive, my injury is nothing. If I really want to be held accountable, I am the most responsible. If I hadn’t proposed to settle in the village, this matter would not have happened.” Verak was very optimistic, seeing the wound on his shoulder They were also medicated, and before Connie could say anything, she asked Murphy, “Where are the villagers?”

  Murphy yelled outside the house, and then a young girl walked into the house holding a child who was only one or two years old, and talked to Murphy in Montrego.

   “Comrade Veraker, this is Margarita, she is in charge of taking care of us.” After chatting for a few words, Murphy introduced this dark, skinny girl to Veraker.

   “Hello.” Verac said in the only Montrego language he could speak, “Thank you.”

  Margarita waved her hand and spoke another word in Montrego.

   “She said she was sorry, she mistook us for robbers and made us like this.” Murphy acted as an interpreter.

   “It’s okay, how about the injured villagers?” Verak asked in turn.

   “She said that the few villagers had no major problems, and they are now placed in another house to recuperate.”

   “The others?”

   “Others are busy re-arranging traps and patrolling, but the village chief just came back, and she will help us call.” Murphy watched Margarita after speaking and left with the child in her arms.

   “What do you think?” Connie asked.

Their plan is to go all the way from the secret site to Montrego’s capital, Montrego City, so that they can learn about the situation along the way, and they can consider establishing a sub-station in the most prosperous city in Montrego, which barely maintains order. things.

   It’s just that this plan has just started, and it will be delayed.

  The three of them have injuries of varying degrees, and it will take ten days and a half months to cultivate to the point where they can move. As for the recovery, the time is estimated to be longer.

“Ask the village chief about the gangsters first.” Verak replied, “Didn’t you just say that there are often gangsters here, and it’s almost time again these days, so the villagers are so happy The appearance of facing the enemy, set up a lot of ambushes.”

   “Are you worried that we will be in danger again?” Connie immediately understood what Verak meant.

“Well.” Verak nodded slightly, “We probably have to rest here for a while, so the safety of the village is equal to our safety. We should not only learn more about the bandits that will appear in the next few days, but also No need to help.”

   “We are all like this, how can we help? Why don’t we find a way to leave as soon as possible and get out of here.” Murphy couldn’t even stand up, and Veraker couldn’t lift his arms. Connie really couldn’t think of what they could do.

“The gangsters won’t just focus on this village. Since they come to rob regularly, it means that a considerable area around them is their range of activities. If we rush to take them away, I’m afraid we will be in real danger.” Verak said .

  Connie still wanted to speak, but Margarita, who had not been out for a long time, just came in with the village chief.
