Not far away in the darkness, the battle between Paul, Julius and Danny was still going on fiercely.
Unlike Hood and Nott, the enemies they faced were relatively weak, which allowed them to deal with it more calmly.
Paul and Julius were both robbers who had been promoted to the second level, and Danny was a professional killer with impressive strength. They each faced an enemy holding a wooden fork, and they seemed to be at ease.
The two senior robbers smiled grimly, the daggers in their hands flashed with cold light, and they kept slashing at their enemies. Their movements were swift and powerful, slashing left and right, and swinging at the opponents repeatedly, not giving the other party any chance to breathe.
In just a dozen seconds, their enemies were beaten so badly that they could only run away with their heads in their arms. One of them died unfortunately, and the other was injured by a cut on the thigh. He fled out of the woods in horror, dragging his injured thigh.
But he did not escape the bad luck, and was eventually caught up by Paul, who stabbed him in the back with a sword, ending his life.
After Paul killed the bandit, Danny had already finished the fight. He found the right opportunity to stab the bandit in the waist and ribs, piercing his heart.
[Ding... Senior robber Nott killed an ambusher]
[Ding... Senior robber Nott killed an ambusher]
[Ding... Senior robber Julius killed an ambusher]
[Ding... Senior robber Paul killed an ambusher]
[Ding... After your excellent command, your team won, and you get 480 experience points]
As a series of system prompts sounded, Hood's eyes swept around, and seeing that no one was injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Boss, where did this group of people come from?"
At this time, Nott came over with a dagger and a round shield, kicked the body of the ambusher leader, and asked curiously.
He looked at the surrounding environment and the equipment of these people, feeling very confused. This is just a small forest, how could these ambushers appear here?
"I don't know either." Hood retracted the dagger and said. He frowned, thinking about the origins and purpose of these people.
Could it be that someone knew they were going to pass by here and set up an ambush? But who would know they were going to pass by here?
And even if they were ambushing him, the fighting power of this group of people was too poor. Besides, apart from Barnett and Roy, he had no other enemies?
In the end, Hood could only regard this as a coincidence.
"Boss, except for one person who ran away, the other ambushers are here."
Julius ran over, still holding a bloody dagger in his hand. He was panting, his face flushed, and his eyes were excited: "Do you want to chase them?"
"No, pack up your things and set off now." Hood ordered. He glanced at the corpse on the ground, then turned and walked towards the carriage.
Time was running out and there was no time to delay. If they didn't get to the valley camp as soon as possible, Hood was afraid that something else would happen.
So everyone acted quickly, the blankets on the ground were put away, and the campfire was buried with soil.
Several people took the carriage again and rushed towards the valley in the night. The wheels of the carriage rolled on the ground, making a creaking sound, breaking the tranquility of the night.
Finally, on the morning of the next day, the valley appeared in Hood's vision. As he got closer, the scene in the valley was also captured in his eyes.
At this moment, the valley was filled with a tense and casual atmosphere. A simple camp was built in the valley. There were tents scattered around the camp. Most of these tents were extremely simple, as if they were just a few pieces of linen put together. Only a few tents inside were extremely neat.
In the camp, mercenaries and bounty hunters wearing various armors and town guards wearing cotton armor and semicircular helmets were busy shuttling among them.
Some of them were sorting their equipment, some gathered together to discuss tactics, and some lay in the tent to rest. Everyone was busy with their own things.
At the entrance of the camp, several guards stood guard with serious expressions. They held short spears and carried large leather shields, always on guard.
Some idle mercenaries were sitting nearby, chatting leisurely and enjoying this rare leisure time.
Suddenly, a crisp sound of horse hooves broke the silence. Hearing the sound of the carriage, the guards immediately became alert, holding short spears and large leather shields, and quickly lined up in a row to form a solid line of defense.
The mercenaries also stood up, drew their weapons, and looked nervously at the valley entrance. For a moment, the entrance of the camp became unusually quiet, with only the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the grass and the neighing of horses echoing in the air.
"Who is it?"
A guard hid behind the leatherBehind the big shield, he asked loudly.
The carriage stopped, and Hood jumped off the carriage, raised his hands to indicate that he had no ill intentions, and then walked forward and said loudly: "We are mercenaries from Rhine Town."
Hearing that Hood was from Rhine Town, the guards relaxed a lot, but still remained vigilant, and then asked: "What are you doing here?"
Hood looked at these guards wearing uniform armor, holding short spears, big shields, and sharp eyes, and a trace of envy appeared in his eyes.
I thought to myself, how great it would be if I could have such a well-trained and well-equipped group of subordinates!
This is the gap!
No wonder Adam, Sam and others can only stay in the town. The guards under their command are completely different from the guards in front of them.
"We went out on a mission some time ago and just returned to the town not long ago. We were planning to come to the town yesterday, but we unexpectedly heard a message that a big businessman was recruiting people.
So we rushed here overnight to see if we could find a suitable job." Hood patiently explained their purpose to the people at the entrance of the camp.
After hearing this, not only did the guards relax, but even the mercenaries smiled.
"Hahaha, then you really came to the right place!" One of the mercenaries said excitedly.
"That's right, the businessman you mentioned is also our employer. Since you are also looking for a job, then hurry in! I'll take you to see him." Another mercenary greeted Hood and others enthusiastically, and motioned them to follow him into the mansion.
Seeing this, the guards at the door put away their short spears and made way.
"Thank you, everyone." Hood thanked the guards, then asked the people in the carriage to get off and followed the mercenary who was willing to lead the way into the camp.
