Mercenaries and Adventurers

Responding to the old guy's words was a cold snort coming through the metal visor.

This attitude on the other side made the confidants and bandits who came over with the old Kosrus very angry. They respected their old leaders very much, because their leaders can always rely on their rich experience to lead them to win one victory after another. respect, or insult him.

Just as these guys were about to charge forward, they were stopped by old Kosrus: "Stop all of them! Stop!"

The cronies were not ordinary bandits. They respected the old Kosrus' orders very much. Although they were reluctant, they immediately pulled the reins, slowed down and returned to the old leader's back.

Turning his head, the old Kosrus explained to these guys: "No matter what happens, follow my order, you all go together, maybe you are not the opponent of the other party. Be careful."

After explaining, the old Kosrus looked at the knight on the opposite side and asked loudly: "What is your relationship with this monster that infested our forest?"

The knight on the opposite side didn't even give a cold snort, just crossed his arms, neither the man nor the horse moved, just looked at them like that, as if watching a funny performance in the theater.

And the old Kosrus is like a clown being teased, funny to please the audience on the opposite side.

The bandits behind put their hands on the handles of their respective weapons again, and looked at the arrogant guy opposite with unfriendly eyes. When they usually patrol other bandit gangs, they will be taken seriously no matter where they go, and they will be entertained with good wine and meat. , If you stay overnight, there will be a woman who sleeps with you, proud of it. At this time, although they knew that the old man valued each other, and that the other party didn't seem to be easy to mess with, they just couldn't stand the other party's ignorance and humiliation.

Old Kosrus was silent for a moment, then turned around and took out a small bag of coins from the pouch carried by the horse, as well as a beautifully shaped southern curved dagger with a gold sheath. He weighed these two things in his hands, held them up in the air, and let the knight opposite see them, and then called a subordinate to ask the other party to give these two gifts to him.

"This is my gift. No matter what your purpose is, I can treat it as invisible. But the monster behind it has killed many of us, so we have to take it anyway. Don't interfere, how about it?" Old Koslu Si lowered his voice so that only those around him could hear.

The knight on the opposite side finally spoke. The voice was a young and strong woman, her tone was full of indifference: "Are you sure you guys want to deal with this monster?" When he said the word deal with, his tone seemed to be full of disdainful ridicule.

Old Kosrus squinted his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and handed over the things in his hands to his subordinates. He whispered to the subordinate who took the things: "Give the things to the other party and it's over, don't do unnecessary things."

The bandit who took the things pulled the corner of his mouth, and slowly let the horse approach the opposite knight.

After approaching the opposite knight, he still had to swallow a mouthful of spit. After all, the steel armor on the opposite knight was not fake. He weighed in his mind whether the throwing ax he threw would hurt the man.

After approaching, he first threw the exquisite and heavy dagger to the opponent. The knight stretched out his hand and clamped the thrown dagger with two fingers. His eyes did not linger on the pure gold sheath, he just pulled out the dagger slightly and glanced at it. The dagger inside was curved, and a disdainful sneer came out from under the visor: "It's a flashy thing."

This sentence made the bandits in front very angry. The old leader he admired would only wear this luxurious and exquisite curved blade dagger around his waist when meeting with other bandit gang leaders to show the strength of their gang. But now let's not talk about giving her this treasure that they robbers have been coveting for a long time, and this woman even said that this thing is flashy!

He angrily threw the whole bag of gold coins in his hand to the other party.

But the knight did not look,

Did not answer.

A small bag of heavy gold coins rubbed against the sturdy metal vest of the war horse and fell into the snow on the ground before disappearing.

The old Koslus not far behind looked bad, but it was too late. The bandit who was close to the gift stared and cursed: "#￥￥#￥%￥!"

He directly reached out and pulled out the weapon on his back, but before he raised his hand much, a dagger handle was directly pierced in front of his face.

All the curved blades of the dagger penetrated into his face and skull in an instant, killing him.

The bandit who had lost his life was stunned for a moment, then lay down softly on the horse's neck.

Knight Lanisa looked at the valuable dagger scabbard in her hand, and muttered, "It's quite sharp."

On the old Kosrus side, the other cronies who had been paying attention to the situation saw their companions being killed, and immediately couldn't bear the anger anymore. Regardless of the old leader's persuasion, they directly drew their weapons and rushed forward go.

The horse of old Coslus wanted to run with the other horses, but was held back by the old man. He straightened up and raised one hand high so that his son behind him could see clearly.

And his eyes are fixed on the moment when his cronies are fighting with the female knight on the opposite side. If the knight on the other side is not good enough to deal with his elite cronies, he will slam his arm down , Let the other men behind also attack together. Use more melee throwing weapons, maybe you can deal with this young female knight.

And if the cronies who rushed up were defeated in two or three strokes, then he had to rush back to the team, and then quickly let everyone go to the front, close to the other two bandit gangs, and use the momentum to force them back this knight.

-

These angry elite bandits took out the melee throwing weapon that the old man had explained to them before, and the other hand gripped the handle of the weapon they were best at. With the impact of the horses, they aimed directly at the opposite side, eloquently throwing the weapon in their hands. The small axes, small hammers, throwing knives and short-handled throwing spears were all aimed and thrown.

Knight Lanisa quickly drew out her sword and concentrated on knocking away the small hammer and spear. She ignored other throwing objects that rely on sharp edges to injure people.

Because these things that deal with no armor or leather armor and light armor can't cause any harm to her and her war horse.

"Drive!" She let out a soft snort, causing her horse to run, and bumped into a bandit on the side directly face to face, knocking the man and horse to the ground at once.

She waved her sword to block a strange-shaped weapon stabbing towards her, and before the other party could react, she quickly retracted the swinging armor-piercing rapier, pierced through the middle of the bandit's chest, and then retracted quickly.

The two missed, and Knight Ranisa went straight to the next bandit. The bandit who fought with her before rode straight forward for a few steps in a daze, and then fell off the horse, but his thick boots were still hanging in the hardwood stirrups. The snow dragged for a long time, until the horse did not hear the master's new order, and stopped by itself.

Knight Lanisa was facing a bandit who was using an axe. Although he was using a light rapier, he still went up to the heavy axe facing him.

The two staggered, and Knight Lanisa pulled the reins with her free hand before they staggered, allowing her favorite horse to dodge the opponent's heavy axe, while Knight Lanisa's rapier was staggered In an instant, he stabbed the wooden handle protruding from the top of the bandit's axe, using the staggered impact force to stab straight in, and then twisted again.

After criss-crossing, the knight Lanisa swung her horse and turned, and the bandit also immediately slowed down and rushed towards the knight, howling loudly.

The female knight under the visor had a smile on her lips, and gradually accelerated to meet her.

After the bandit adjusted the horse's position to face the knight, he slammed his legs on the horse's belly to make the horse speed up. Then he held the ax with both hands free, swinging it to gather momentum.

Old Koslus, who was watching not far away, stared closely at the only trusted elite subordinate, not counting the subordinate who was knocked down by the horse at the beginning, and who was still trying to break free from the crushed horse at this time, the others Everyone has been knocked down, and this guy is the only one left.

superior! Defeat that knight, those monsters hiding under the armor! At least kill her steed!

"Hit the horse! Hit her horse!" Old Kosrus shouted hoarsely to remind his subordinates.

I don't know if his subordinates heard it, but at least Knight Lanisa heard it, and was obviously not happy. If she is not happy, someone will be unlucky.

The bandit who was swinging his heavy ax in the air to build up his power was about to impress the female knight when he was in high spirits, but when he swung his ax with strength, the heavy ax of his ax suddenly collided with the one he was holding in both hands. The long wooden handle comes off.

Along a parabolic arc, it fell into the snow on the ground.

The roar he let out with his mouth wide open changed from heroic and shocking to a sharp, choked-out tone of surprise: "Hey!!!"

And the old Kosrus almost couldn't catch his breath. Immediately afterwards, without looking at the last moment, he turned his horse and ran towards his men.

Knight Lanisa let out a cry, and in the interlacing, cut off the neck of this miscalculated bandit with a sword, and knocked the flying head away with the sword, and landed on the place where the ax fell.

She then rode her horse and trampled to death the bandit who had been knocked to the ground by the horse at the beginning.

Seeing the old bandit who was running away, she snorted softly, lifted her visor, whistled loudly, and waved towards her subordinates.

Kiel and the others, who had been looking at this side, saw Knight Lanisa's movements.

Keir turned to look at an old hunter and asked, "What does she mean?"

"Master Knight, let us go over and clean up the corpses on the ground. If you want to go, just go over with two people." The old hunter said.

Of course Keir was interested. He walked out of the main entrance of the wooden house and ran towards the place where the knights had just fought.

The old hunter turned around again, and asked the young hunters behind him, "Which one of you will go?" As soon as he finished asking, he saw that the young hunters who should have been urging to help the women in the house get dressed, all turned away. Hands reached into the clothes of those women, groping for something inside.

And these weak women are pulling their mischievous hands, not knowing whether they are resisting or pulling on their bodies.

"What time is it! Still doing this! You, it's you, hurry up and help your lord clean up the corpses of the bandits she killed!" Good-hearted young hunter, go out and help the knight clean up.

The women who put on clothes inside and animal skins outside were giggling, watching the young hunter escape from the cabin.

The old hunter stared: "Don't laugh too. If the situation changes later, you must immediately follow us out of the cabin and into the forest. Wrap your feet with warm things. If the snow outside does not Protect your feet, it only takes a moment for your feet to freeze off your legs."

His words really frightened these young and devastated women, so they hurriedly tore the blanket off the wooden bed, tore it into strips, and wrapped them around their feet.

-

Kiel quickly ran to the knight's position, drew out the dagger, cut the bandit's clothes in two or three, and then dragged the naked bandit to the burning wooden house.

Soon, another hunter came over. There were not many dead bodies, so they only had to make two or three trips. The main reason was that the horses the bandits were riding on, except for three that were healthy, could be taken away, but there was one that was knocked to the ground and then trampled by the war horses, and was already dying at this time.

A horse weighs several hundred kilograms, and it is not something that Keir and a young hunter can move, and must rely on other horses to haul it away.

While they were busy, Knight Lanisa stopped the two of them and pointed them to two places to take back a small bag of gold coins and a dagger sheath made of gold from the robbers, and hand them over to other old hunters. save.

The bandits retreated from behind the white mist emitted by the monster, leaving only two bandits watching from a distance. Kiel looked at the motionless white mist of the monster, wondering why this guy didn't attack the large number of bandits in front of him, but just stayed where he was.

Is it because after swallowing the reckless bandit just now, did you feel full?

--

Warcraft felt that he was full all of a sudden.

It stabbed those foolish humans who rushed into the mist to death with their legs and feet, and then quickly swallowed them one by one with its mouth.

In its perception, these human beings are not the same as those cunning guys they fought against before. Not only was their reaction slow, but once they were hit by it, no matter whether it was fatal or not, they would freeze in place or collapse on the snow above them.

It is convenient for it to swallow, after all, it will not run around slickly.

But eating so much food at once still made him feel uncomfortable. Some of the surviving creatures are still resisting in its mouth, which makes it have to chew the newly grown teeth in its mouth, or squeeze the inside of the long mouth hard to quiet the food.

With the food that has been swallowed in its stomach as a base, it can finally relax and prepare for a big fight.

In its perception, the human who bullied it all the way just stood far behind it, and was still riding her horse, as if still peeping into its baby belly.

It has to be carefully guarded.

Thinking of this, it wriggled its stomach, and swayed left and right with the spinneret at its tail, starting from the snow on the ground, creating a thin but very hard translucent mucus layer.

Originally, this thing was used as a tool for it to pass through the open and unforested areas, but occasionally, it was also used to reinforce its old nest.

This is a very precious body substance. After normal use, it will secrete something with its mouth to soften the hardened mucus, and then eat it back.

It can support its heavy body with only a thin piece of hardened mucus, so it is very relieved about the protective effect of this precious thing.

--

Cavalier Lanisa felt suspiciously through the magic power and watched its movements through the fog of the monster.

From just now, this guy has been swinging that cumbersome and huge belly repeatedly, and he doesn't know what he's doing.

Something seems to be released from the tail of its belly pouch, what could it be?

Couldn't it be that monster that was excreting? It's so disgusting that he's still heading in her direction. Thinking of this, Knight Lanisa picked up a bandit's weapon on the ground and threw it directly towards the tail of the monster in the mist.

Die, disgusting guy.

-

The beaten monster let out a cry, which startled the bandits on the other side of the white mist.

They looked back at their leader, and the bandit leader roared angrily: "Come on! Go for me! Stab the monster to death! Knock it into the air!"

These simple and rude bandits hugged the newly acquired tree trunk from left to right, "haha, haha, haha." With a loud voice, they accelerated their pace and rushed into the huge white mist in front of them.

Together with this wave of bandits, there was another team of bandits that had always been relatively large in number. They organized three groups of people and rushed inside with the tree trunk in their arms.

These freshly felled tree trunks were only briefly cleaned. The excess branches were removed, and one end of the trunk was simply cut out with a sharp impact head.

And behind these bandits who rushed recklessly, there were some bandits holding piles of firewood that had just been made. The large branches outside the pile of firewood tied up with ropes were some flammable materials stuffed indiscriminately inside. Things like loincloths or leggings soaked in oil and sweat, and even some looted women's scarves, which were treasured by robbers and never washed since the moment they got them These scarves, the bandits tried to preserve the original smell of the scarves as long as possible, but unfortunately over the years, these scarves were either tattered or stained with a lot of oil.

Who told the bandits to always keep these scarves close to their bodies? And they didn't bother to take a bath for a long month or two. They didn't rush to find water to wash themselves until they were lucky enough to be sent a woman down to spend the night in the bandit gang.

These bundled piles of firewood, once the stakes are no longer useful, they have to be ignited and thrown into them, and use the flames to drive away the monsters inside, so that they can escape from this troublesome thing that obstructs their vision.
