Heroes of the Invincible Knight

"Master Richard, we should be able to keep them."

Zebul was a little puzzled. In his opinion, although the man opposite was strong, he and the manticore should be enough to resist.

For the remaining people, Li Cha and the two vanguard knights will deal with them. Their odds of winning are not low. They shouldn't let these sneak attackers go.

"not worth it."

Li Cha shook his head, and after confirming that the other party had gone away, he put the angel necklace he was holding tightly back into his bosom.

It wasn't worth his Angel Necklace, and it wasn't worth risking Zebul and the Manticore.

The situation at night is unclear, and Ridge Town is not their home field. It is best to annihilate the incoming enemies.

The opponent has the ability to retreat, and he doesn't want to force it. If he catches up now, if the opponent has any ambushes, he can only be forced to use the angel necklace as his trump card.

Li Cha now feels a little insecure about the next journey, and even the king's capital.

Be as careful as possible.

Who knows, will there be an attack inside the kingdom or in the core area of ​​the kingdom, and the force sent to the other side is not weaker than the power of the top nobles,

If it weren't for Li Cha's many hole cards, it might really be a corpse on the ground at this moment, and the angel necklace is Li Cha's last hole card.

"Let's count the losses."

"yes!"

After a short contact battle, Li Cha's side lost more than a dozen people,

The main loss was the two teams of northern cavalry brought by Richard.

Although this group of cavalry is elite, they are only ordinary troops. The two captains barely reached the level of quasi-knights, and the rest are only at the level of elite soldiers.

With such a high proportion of knights on the other side, it is not normal for the losses to be small. If it weren't for Li Cha's high-end combat strength and sharing a lot of pressure, the casualties of these northern cavalry would only be greater.

In addition, several sentries arranged at night were also removed.

The bright and dark whistle they set up is like a joke in the eyes of the other party. This group of people is so familiar with this place that it is ridiculous.

Accidentally doing mental calculations, the sentry set up by Li Cha was removed without any warning.

"Master Li Cha, there is still life left."

"Take it down and see if you can ask anything."

"yes."

In the process of clearing the battlefield, it is quite normal to find a few people who were injured but not dead,

If you meet someone you can save, save them. If you can’t save them, give them a happy one. When you meet the other person, it depends on the situation. If you are seriously injured, give them a happy one.

If you want to ask questions, try to treat them.

The opponent retreated in a bit of a panic, and naturally he didn't have time to take away his own wounded, so it fell into Li Cha's hands right now.

Li Cha really wanted to know the origins of this group of people, he still hadn't figured out which god he had offended, and made such a big battle to deal with him.

"Master Li Cha, the other party committed suicide."

"Oh shit."

Obviously, this group of people has a big problem. Such dead soldiers cannot be cultivated by ordinary forces.

Li Cha didn't bring any expert interrogators from Yusidu this time. The group of people under his command are good at fighting, but they are completely laymen in interrogation, and they even gave the other party a chance to commit suicide.

But fortunately, Li Cha already had another guess in his mind...

It's getting brighter

Finally, someone watched from afar the hotel where Li Cha and the others lived.

The sound of fighting in the middle of the night last night almost alarmed the whole town,

Except for the people who stayed in the same hotel as Li Cha, who were forced to escape from the scene of the fire due to an indiscriminate disaster in the middle of the night, everyone else huddled in the room and did not dare to show their heads.

People in this era don't have much interest in watching the excitement, and they are afraid that if they are not careful, they will harm the fish in the pond.

"Master Li Cha, you have already found out what you asked the detective to investigate."

Li Cha and the others didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night.

After simply restraining his companion's corpse, Li Cha ordered people to go to the town to investigate.

When it was dawn, it was obvious that there were some eyebrows.

"Those corpses last night were identified by several innkeepers, and many of them were from the garrison of Ridge Town.

The camp of the garrison is now empty, and the group should have left directly at night. "

Li Cha's expression did not change significantly, and this result was obviously within his expectations.

The group of people who attacked him in the middle of the night were obviously very familiar with the town, they looked like local forces, and they carried a lot of military crossbows.

The defense team in the town didn't even have a reaction. No matter how much water there is, it should be able to wash the floor. If it hasn't appeared yet, the truth will be obvious.

But after getting the result, Li Cha's doubts grew even bigger.

This small garrison was apparently appointed by someone to attack him together with other forces.

Even this garrison team has long since ceased to belong to the kingdom's officialdom. It had been in a low-key dormant state before, and now it was suddenly activated in order to deal with him.

"Master Richard, the mayor of Ridge Town has brought you here."

"My lord, I don't know anything!"

The mayor of Ridge Town immediately knelt down in front of Li Cha as soon as he entered the door. Through various understandings, he already roughly knew what happened last night.

He also understood the identity of the person in front of him, whether it is the identity of the earl or the newly promoted marquis, to him, a small town mayor, he is a high-ranking person,

This big man was assassinated in the small town last night, he didn't want to have anything to do with this kind of thing,

It's not like he hasn't seen how dark these nobles are. When he meets a tyrannical master, he can peel off a layer of skin if he has any doubts.

He couldn't help being careless.

Li Cha followed the voice and looked,

The mayor is a bald man about fifty years old, with a fat head and big ears. He obviously made a lot of money by taking advantage of this position.

However, Li Cha is not interested in whether he can get it or not, and this town is not his territory, so he can't control it so far.

He just wanted to get some more information from the mayor.

But judging by his appearance, Li Cha no longer had much hope, and he was probably just a fool.

"Okay, I'll ask you something, just answer truthfully."

"Yes, my lord, you ask."

"Tell me about the situation of the defense team first."

"Our town's garrison has 100 people, all of which are full and there is no vacancy."

"Why?"

Although Li Cha asked why the opponent's defense team didn't have any vacancies, it sounded strange at first,

But actually this is the normal state of the kingdom,

The chief of the local garrison is conscientious if he eats one-third to one-fourth of the vacancies.

In a place like Ridge Town, there are basically no wars, and there are no powerful bandits in the hinterland of the kingdom.

Although there are one hundred garrison troops, there will be basically no battles.

It is normal to eat half of the space, but the mayor said that there is no space, obviously there is a problem.

"Hey, it's not that John is a hypocrite. When I first took office, I discussed with him to take some free money. I agreed with him on the extra money, but he refused.

He came earlier than me, and the garrison team was all his people. He really refused, and the mayor of me couldn't do anything about him. "

The mayor's attitude towards empty pay is simply righteous. If he were under Li Cha's rule, he would be able to draw his sword and kill him right now.

"Where is John now?"

"I don't know, I don't know where he ate a leopard and dared to attack you."

The mayor is actually not stupid. From the bodies of these garrison members and the empty garrison camp today, he already guessed that the attack last night was related to the town's garrison.

He also really felt wronged, he didn't eat a penny, and this was a big pot for nothing.

"Has there been any actions or strange behaviors by the town defense team recently?"

"No, except that we don't have to pay for nothing, the garrison in our town is no different from the garrison in other places. We only train a few times a year, just to deal with the errands in the capital.

To be honest, does it mean that our town defense team trains more frequently? "

If Li Cha heard this before the attack, he would still think that the captain of the garrison team is an upright officer who emerges from the mud and is not stained.

Now it sounds like, shit, there's a big problem.

"Oh, by the way, recently the defense team was ordered by the higher-ups to go out to clean up the remnants of the Rising Sun God Sect, and it seems to be quite rewarding."

Obviously, the original captain of the garrison managed the troops well,

The mayor seems to be completely out of control, and he only understands a little superficially about many things.

"The Rising Sun God Sect?"

When he heard this name again, Li Cha almost immediately confirmed in his heart that this incident had something to do with this church.

Well-trained soldiers, strong when their origins are unknown, and dead soldiers with a firm will.

Apart from the official power of the kingdom, there are not many forces that can satisfy these conditions at the same time.

And the Kingdom officials have no possibility of targeting him at all.

Although there is no direct evidence, Li Cha has almost confirmed the attacker's power at this moment.
