Chapter 21 High Respect
"Hey, boy, you're already surrounded by a few of us, why don't you take ...... of them quickly," shouted a robber dressed in black who jumped into the middle of the road, pointed his sword at James' nose.
"The boss is mighty!"
"The boss is domineering!"
......
Several men dressed in the same color also came out of the grass at this moment, and they formed a circle, and surrounded James in the middle, looking at him with a fierce look.
"Hmph!" Hearing the flattery of the younger brothers, the robber boss crossed his hands on his hips, put on a posture that he thought he was very handsome, and said confidently, "How much money do you have on your kid?"
To be honest, James was really startled when he saw this battle, but based on the actions of this group of people just now, he suddenly found that robbers can also be very sand sculptures. Thinking that they were the same kind of people as himself, James immediately straightened up, clasped his nose with the little thumb of his right hand, and then said nonchalantly:
"Hey, hey, hey...... You...... Yes, I'm talking about you, don't keep pointing the tip of your sword at my nose and make it look like that woman. James replied briskly.
"Yohe, your kid is still quite loud, dare to ask my brother Qiang. The robber boss furrowed his eyebrows, exerted all his strength, and rushed forward with his short sword in hand. At this time, James had also drawn his steel longsword, ready for the first round of attacks. He saw that the boss seemed to be trying to make a surprise attack from the right, and James jumped to the left, and struck his short sword with his hand. The robber boss didn't pay attention, and fell to the ground because of the force.
"The boss is so handsome......"
The words of the little brothers are stuck in the air.
"Fuck your uncle, little bunny, are you playing yin?" the robber boss struggled to get up from the ground, patted the dust off his body in embarrassment, and yelled at James.
The group of robbers immediately reacted, shouting and rushing towards themselves.
"It's over......" James grabbed his long sword, blocked his forehead, caught a man's attack, and then kicked away the other robber next to him, drilling through the gap between the two robbers, and lifting the siege at once. But breaking through does not mean that people can escape, the robber boss snorted coldly, pointed with his right hand, and a group of robbers quickly rushed up again.
"Oh no, I can't fight so many ...... alone" With James' talent and the few trainings he received in Storm Fortress, he believed that he could escape with one or two robbers attacking at the same time, but in the face of five or six robbers with weapons, if he didn't think of a way, he might not be able to escape.
"Try your new magic ......"
James stretched out his right hand, then whispered a spell, using the magic power of his whole body to create a fireball out of thin air. The robber who rushed to the front immediately froze, stopped, and was thrown to the ground by the people who wanted to rush after him. One by one, they tripped over each other.
"You ......" the corners of the robber's mouth twitched, stomped his feet, and scolded. "You bunch of rubbish, a few people can't beat one ......of them," he saw the fireball in James' hand, stunned for a moment, and then sneered and said, "It turned out to be a young magic apprentice, I heard that people who can do magic have a lot of money on them, it seems that this time the brothers are going to make a fortune." Take it!"
James looked at the robber boss who rushed up, and with a wave of his right hand, he launched the fireball. But the boss changed his previous physical fitness and dodged it sensitively. The fireball hit the tree behind the bandit boss and ignited a burst of flames.
"Damn, the master didn't teach me how to turn a fireball into an explosive fireball, or maybe I could hurt this person. James cursed secretly in his heart, holding his long sword, colliding with the opponent's short sword. The two fought for a few rounds, with James taking the upper hand, but the robbers who had fallen to the ground also got up and pulled out their weapons to support their boss. Seeing that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable for him, James could only take a few steps back.
"No, it looks like you have to use cheat mode. He muttered, holding out his right hand again. Thinking that he was about to conjure up a fireball, the robbers quickly jumped away from where his hand was outstretched. One of the robbers pulled a dagger from his pocket and threw it at James.
Then, a scene shocked everyone. James didn't make any flames, but with a wave of his right hand, he aimed at the flying dagger lightly, and the dagger that shone with silver light immediately flew in the opposite direction with the sound of the air as if it had been greatly hindered. The grip of the dagger hit the robber who threw the dagger in the forehead, and the robber immediately fell unconscious.
"What!?" the robber boss closest to James jumped back a few steps in fright. "What kind of magic is this?"
"This is my original magic ......" James didn't say much, and directly aimed his palm at the group of people behind the boss, and then used the skill just now. The robber boss covered his ears and felt a huge thrust spreading behind him. When there was no movement, he dared to turn back slowly.
"I'll go ......" He gasped at the sight of the robbers falling behind him, then threw himself to his knees and kowtowed to James a few times. "Big brother, you will be my big brother in the future! The younger brother has eyes and does not know Taishan, and he has offended you, please forgive me!"
"Forget it...... "James coughed awkwardly. "Why don't you tell me where your robbers' den is, and I'll let you go, what do you think?"
"Yes, yes......" The robber boss stood up gratefully. "Our base is near Kingsbridge, and you just have to walk around the mountains next to Kingsbridge to find a cave, and all of us are there. ”
"Isn't this very close to Kingsbridge?" James said, gesturing to the ground. "You dare to rob under the noses of the guards, aren't you afraid of being caught?"
"Gree......" The robber boss looked back at the mountain in the distance, and said, "Don't hide it, big brother, whether it's the king, the Storm Baron, who is second only to the king, or the officials of Kingsbridge City Hall, they all turn a blind eye to our actions. ”
"Why? Haven't you been purged before?" said James. "Lead the way. ”
"Yes, yes......" The robber boss walked ahead. "There have been one or two times of purging, but they are all painless. Here is Vasilia, not Messiah, and the army is not so much of a deterrent. The little one is just an ordinary bandit leader, and there's no way to know more, but I've heard that our real boss has a relationship with the city officials of Kingsbridge. The officials ignored us and hid it from their superiors, so we dared to build a base in front of Kingsbridge. ”
James thought of the female alchemist named Margaret before, who, as she hugged her calf, screamed and cursed the people at the town hall for doing nonsense. In this way, what the woman said is not unreasonable.
Thinking that he still had something to do, James quickly changed the topic and asked, "Have you caught a black-haired girl these days......
"Hehe, boss, we have arrested a lot of girls, and there are several with black hair, which one are you talking about?"
James glared at him.
"I've heard she's the daughter of an alchemist from Kingsbridge. ”
"Alchemist's daughter......" The man was silent for a moment. "Is her name Constance......
"You know her ......"
"Oh, I remember a gang of robbers who met them the other day in the middle of the mountain road, and they killed the men and took all the women back, and one of them was Constance, the daughter of the Kingsbridge alchemist. I've heard that she's pretty good-looking, and that our boss has taken a fancy to her, and she's being held in the deepest cell, so that she's ready to go...... No, that person is not my boss, you are my boss......"
James was about to speak, when around the corner he saw a man in a black cloak sneaking up among the trees. James glanced at him, and the man looked at him as indifferently as if he had seen air.
The robber boss looked at James's expression, then at the man in the black cloak, rolled his eyes, puffed up his chest, and yelled.
"Who's in the way!?"
"I've got some goods here that need to be sold urgently...... said the gloomy man.
"Need to sell the goods?" the robber boss stepped forward, then turned back to James and said, "Boss, do you want to take a look?"
James sighed, and the words of refusal came out of his throat, but he saw the robber boss pause, his eyes widened, his pupils dilated, and then he fell weakly.
A bloody dagger was in the hand of the black-robed man, and he raised his head, completely letting James see all his faces.
"The Forsaken, I salute you......"
