Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 562 Mercenary Team
As the city of Ilanrado was brought back under the rule of Count Hermann Fruilov, the trade volume between the city of Isenpol and the cities to the north also increased rapidly.
After the reduction of one tariff, the profits of the specialties of the two places increased greatly, and many caravans from other trade routes began to set their sights on this piece of cake.
The western trade route of Isenpol City was opened, and the orc trade in Frovald was opened. The quantity and variety of goods in the two places increased several times in a short period of time, and the goods that were previously monopolized by various nobles also began to flow into the market.
Outside the Bavanachi Castle south of the city of Ilanrado, a small caravan consisting of more than ten carriages left the town and headed south along the World Tree Avenue.
Because of the delay on the road, the caravan failed to reach the next settlement in the evening, so they had to camp in the wild.
Just as the smoke rose, the scout outside the camp suddenly blew a whistle.
The sharp whistle threw the camp into chaos. When the caravan members gathered with spears and wooden shields, they found that they were surrounded by a large group of aliens outside the camp.
Several tall wandering orc warriors led a large group of vassal gnolls and kobolds.
A total of three hundred alien races rushed out from the depths of the Wolf-Driving Plain and ran to the World Tree Avenue to prey.
A caravan of dozens of people, relying on a dozen horse-drawn carriages, was in a standoff with the aliens.
The boss of the caravan looked at the huge number of alien troops outside, his heart sank and he waited for death in despair.
There are many caravans on the World Tree Avenue, and there are also numerous corner flag knights to deter alien races. Under normal circumstances, there will only be small groups of bandits and aliens robbing, and such large-scale mixed armies rarely appear.
In order to save money, he only hired a mercenary team of 20 people, and together with his own men, they were barely able to resist the alien marauding team of less than 100 people.
Even the nearby corner flag patrols cannot afford to offend such a large force, and only the local square flag knights can form a legion to eliminate it.
At this time, a member of the mercenary team walked out of the defense circle formed by the carriages.
This is a short-statured kobold, and even in the world of wild kobolds, it is considered a thin breed.
The kobold was wearing fine leather armor, a coarse cloth cloak, and a short sword at his waist, looking like a short swordsman.
She took a rolled-up battle flag, opened the cloth bag, and unfolded it into the wind.
“Woof woof woof! I am the Kobold General and the Wind Swordsman Xix, get out of my way!”
The alien troops on the opposite side were in a commotion, and the dog-headed men and gnolls were panicking, "Woof! It's the dog-head life-saving flag!"
The leading orc warrior saw the alien raiders under his command retreating and couldn't help shouting, "It's just a kobold. I can smash it into pulp with one hammer. What are you afraid of?"
A gnoll tried to explain, "This is a dog-head life-saving flag, it cannot be killed! This is how my tribe was wiped out!"
"Once you move the dog-head life-saving flag, you can't escape. There is no way you can escape at all!"
"Escape a thousand miles, and you will die!"
The orc warrior didn't believe it at all. He looked at Xix, who was carrying the flag in front of him, and strode forward with a chain hammer, "I'll kill you right now!"
Xix stuck the battle flag in his hand into the soil, and held the short sword at his waist with his claws, "My sword is not bad either!"
The orc warrior was furious and rushed forward and hit him with a hammer.
Xix was only one meter tall, not even half the height of the orc warrior. He felt a little nervous when he saw the chain hammer that was bigger than his head coming at him.
She rolled over, slipped under the orc warrior's crotch, and drew her dagger.
Two sword lights flashed by, the orc warrior groaned miserably, and rushed forward, with two blood lines bursting out on the inside of his thighs.
Unfortunately, the orc warrior's thigh was thicker than the human's waist, and when Xix's dagger slashed at it, it couldn't directly cut the hamstrings, making the orc unable to get up.
The orc warrior staggered, turned around and swung his chain hammer, knocking Xix's dagger away.
Sheeks, who was originally preparing to release the "Swift Wind Sword Qi", had his weapon dropped from his hand and had to use his trump card.
A black gun barrel protruded from her cloak and was aimed at the orc warrior's chin.
With a roar, the orc warrior who was nearby fell asleep.
Most of his head was blown to pieces, he was dead beyond deadness.
Six wagged his tail, the musket was indeed more useful!
There were several stray orc warriors in the alien looting team. Seeing this, they rushed over roaring, and other aliens were encouraged and also approached the caravan.
Six raised his head and howled like a wolf, and immediately a huge one-horned boar jumped out of the convoy. Its size was beyond people's imagination, it was simply a rhinoceros.
The rhinoceros-like one-horned boar has a thick layer of bronze armor on its front body. The hundreds of kilograms of bronze armor does not affect its running at all.
The unicorn rushed to Six's side, and the horn on its head instantly pierced through the chest of an orc warrior, and then it swung its head violently and threw it far away.
The remaining orc warriors were unable to stop the armored behemoth and were quickly caught up by it and easily killed.
With their leader killed, the remaining alien raiders could no longer maintain their morale and they retreated one after another, disappearing into the jungle.
Six, who single-handedly drove away the alien troops, reached out and touched the head of the unicorn boar before returning to the convoy.
"Six, so powerful!"
A snail man and a turtle man emerged from behind the cover, their eyes full of admiration, shouting and jumping around Six.
Above the convoy, Bjorn, the captain of the mercenary team, sat on the roof of the truck holding a Virgil rifle, watching the movement below with a smile.
After the Hewan War subsided, professional soldiers like them temporarily lost their usefulness.
Ordinary soldiers still need to patrol, stand guard, and train every day, so an extraordinary archer like Bjorn can only find other ways to improve himself.
A group of restless people formed a mercenary team to provide armed protection to passing caravans, practice their skills, and maintain road security.
Originally, Olivia was determined not to let Six go out on an adventure, but she couldn't resist her pleading, and finally agreed reluctantly, and told others to take good care of her.
The snail elves and turtle elves, whose strength is equivalent to that of the mid-level extraordinary humans, are all with Sheeks, and the extraordinary archer Bjorn has become the captain of the mercenary team.
Fisher, who is experienced in adventuring, serves as their scout and provides adventuring experience to prevent non-combat casualties among the younger generations of River Bend.
After the war in the north ended, Fisher, Barrett and Lynch ended their employment with Count Hermann and arrived at the river bend as promised.
The caravan crisis was resolved and they arrived at Linhai Town two days later. The mercenary team then completed their mission and left the caravan.
In addition to their carry-on luggage, they also had three trucks of cargo.
Six bought three large bags of wheat cakes at Bessie's Bakery in Linhai Town and threw them into the truck.
"Eat, little ones!"
Inside the truck, there were numerous little heads, looking around at the strange world.
When they saw the wheat cakes thrown in, they all rushed to grab them.
Orc cubs, troll cubs, and even a few tauren cubs.
This is what they gained from this trip.
