I don't know if it was because of the recent rain, but the originally smooth road became muddy. Every step would splash a lot of mud and water, making it difficult for Hod and the robbers to walk.
However, Hod's heart was burning with desire at this time, and he had long ignored the puddles and wet mud on the road.
He was gloomy and kept his head down. The bodies of the villagers on the roadside kept appearing in his mind. If he didn't take the initiative to upgrade his level and become stronger, maybe one day he would die on the roadside.
The five robbers following Hod were also silent. Each of them held a sword and followed Hod with a serious expression.
"Leader, look over there..." Suddenly, Nott quickened his pace and pointed to the distance, with a hint of excitement and expectation in his voice.
Hod looked in the direction he pointed, and the scene in front of him amazed everyone.
I saw a green patch of flat land in the distance. It was an endless wheat field. The green wheat seedlings swayed gently in the breeze, like a green ocean, with rolling wheat waves and vitality.
At the end of the wheat field, there were several tall oak trees. They stood there upright and firmly, guarding the farmland like loyal soldiers.
The sun shone on the wheat field, with golden light, and set off against the tender green wheat seedlings, forming a beautiful picture.
The breeze blew, bringing bursts of fresh air, making people feel relaxed and happy.
This wheat field looked like a treasure given by nature, full of hope and vitality.
The robbers stopped and stared at the beautiful scenery in the distance, with surprise and admiration in their eyes.
They were attracted by this quiet and beautiful pastoral scenery and felt the charm and power of nature. At this moment, they seemed to forget their fatigue and pressure and immersed themselves in this beautiful scenery.
Before becoming robbers, they lived an ordinary and peaceful life like ordinary people.
They may have had a warm family and shared the joy of family with their loved ones, or they may have had their own dreams and pursuits and worked hard.
However, frequent wars and increasing heavy taxes pushed them to the path of lawless criminals.
Now, when they see such a quiet and peaceful place again, those beautiful memories come to their minds like a tide.
They see children playing in the village, laughter echoing in the air, old people sitting at the door to bask in the sun, their faces are filled with satisfied smiles, and women are busy doing housework, everything seems so harmonious.
These scenes touched the softest part of their hearts and reminded them of the happy times they once had.
For these robbers, the memories of this moment are both sweet and painful.
However, when these robbers were immersed in memories, Hood looked at the village on the other side of the farmland.
On the north side of the farmland, there are more than 20 thatched huts made of wood, stone and hay, with gray smoke coming out of the roofs.
In the center of the village, which is shrouded in smoke, is a circular fortress made of stone and wood, about 50 meters long and 7 or 8 meters high.
There are circular battlements and a simple wooden watchtower on the top of the fortress, and you can vaguely see a figure swaying above.
At the bottom of the fortress, there is an oak door with rivets, and several small square windows are neatly arranged on both sides and above the door.
Looking at the village and the fortress from afar, Hood's eyes flickered. After thinking for a while, he opened the system's recruitment option.
[Recruitable troops: robbers]
[50 copper sheep/1 person]
Looking at the recruitment price of the robbers, Hood calculated the balance in his backpack and tentatively recruited five robbers.
Unlike the troop card that materialized when setting up a tent in the bandit camp, the complex data chain did not appear after Hod confirmed the recruitment in his mind.
Five robbers appeared beside him out of thin air. Like Nott and his men, they were dressed in rags and held pitchforks and sickles that were both farm tools and weapons...
But among the five newly appeared robbers, one robber instantly attracted Hod's attention.
The robber wore a woolen hat, a worn-out sleeveless leather armor, and held a machete with a cold glow in his hand. His expression was indifferent and cold.
This time he was lucky...
Hod narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the fully armed robber, and his anger was slightly reduced.
"Monkron reports to you, leader."
The robber ignored the jealous eyes of Nott and other robbers on the side, walked directly to Hod, and said in a deep voice.
The other four robbers saw this scene and hurriedly spoke up to show their respect to Hod.
"Welcome to join us." Hod glanced at Nott, Kuhn and others who were jealous and had red eyes, and slowly said to them.said to Monkron and the others.
"Humph... a guy with shit luck..."
At this time, Nott and the others had already woken up from their memories, looking at the newly appeared "companion" Monkron, their eyes were full of envy and jealousy.
For Nott's ridicule, Monkron did not directly refute, but looked him up and down, with disdain on his face.
"What's that expression on your face!"
Nott was immediately stimulated by Monkron's eyes looking at "poor ghosts", and strode forward and said angrily.
This new guy actually looked down on people so much.
Seeing this, the robbers such as Kuhn and Jeff not only did not stop the friction between the two, but also showed an expression of watching the fun.
The two people's swords were drawn, which made Hood frown and look up at the two people directly. Even if they didn't say anything, the two people who were watched also lowered their heads and dared not continue to quarrel.
After the two of them each brought four robbers to stand beside Hood, Hood opened the system backpack again in his mind.
At this moment, the balance in the backpack has become 2 gold dragons, 1 silver deer, and 66 bronze sheep.
Through the comparison before and after, Hood calculated the conversion between these three currencies.
That is, 1 gold dragon is equal to 10 silver deer, and 1 silver deer is equal to 100 bronze sheep.
If the price of 50 bronze sheep is used for one robber, then Hood can at least summon 44 robbers.
After thinking for a while, Hood recruited another ten robbers from the system, and then looked up and said: "I want to go into the village to take a look, Nott, Monklon, you two come with me."
"Kun, Jeff, you take the rest of the people and stay here. If the situation is not right, support us immediately."
The four nodded, Hood glanced at the newly recruited robbers, and then took Nott and Monklon to the farmland.
The three of them walked through the narrow path in the wheat field and walked straight towards the village. As soon as they entered the village, some villagers came out of the thatched huts.
They were hunched over, wrapped in tattered linen, and it was unknown whether there was something else stuffed inside, which made them look a little bloated.
After seeing the three people of Hood suddenly appear, they all stopped and looked at them vigilantly.
The two sides looked at each other for a while, and soon a villager turned around and ran towards the center of the village.
The remaining villagers stood in place, holding the farm tools in their hands and continued to look at Hood and the three people.
Looking at these villagers, Hood also knew that there might be no one who could make the decision among them, so he secretly made a waiting gesture to Nott and Monkron, and then found a clean place to sit down.
Not long after, the chaotic footsteps came from the center of the village.
When Hood looked over, he saw a bald guy with big ears and a big belly, trotting towards him with several people dressed like militiamen.
