Chapter 80: A Depressed Day
Looking enviously at the back of the young bandit leader, the killer Diga Woody's heart couldn't help but ripple endlessly, once upon a time he also wanted to have a strong dream like the young man who was gone, and he was ambitious to change everything he wanted to change. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info But in the face of the cruel life, all these dreams have come to naught, and now he can only run for the life of the clan, when will he solve the situation of relying on the assistance of the Terran to survive the cold winter, he can live according to his own ideas, but he knows that this day will almost never come.
"Chief, is St. Don Quixote that family?I just sent Fernando's main guard away, they left a lot of wounded, when are we going to send them back?" After the young bandit leader left, a petite orc flashed through the door and approached the slayer Diga Woody.
"Of course, I can't think of anyone who would dare to be a bold impostor, and besides, you see that kid was from a noble background when he first came. St. Don Quixote, who has been in power for generations, has been given the title of Ice Emperor, and his family's ice magic is unmatched by no race on the continent other than the Ice Dragon. Look at that kid's amazing ice magic, if it weren't for the even stranger mercenary, I'm sure he would still be here to mingle. ”
"The wounded have to be taken care of, and this is a great opportunity for us to bond with the Fernando family. After I'm gone, you're going to have to take care of those bastards who surrendered, let them go if they want to leave, and take care of what they want to stay, and I can't make any more trouble until I come back. Well, let's do it, we've swallowed a lot of stuff this time, let's digest and digest these first, let's not collect tolls first, we can't look at those little money now, everything will be said when I come back, Kyle, this time Antelope Canyon is really the world of our orc bandits, but I don't feel a little excited. Diga Woody the Slayer had lost the excitement he had just had, perhaps because of the departure of the young bandit leader, and he muttered to himself in an orderly manner what needed to be done.
Kyle, who was quietly waiting for the Killer Diga Woody to finish his orders, looked at the leader who was still talking to himself, and saw that the latter's eyes were gradually fogging, so he turned around and walked out, and the moment he closed the door, he could still hear the muttering voice of the Killer Diga Woody sitting alone in the room.
"When will this life end. ”
Hearing this, he had already stood outside the door, but the petite orc Kyle closed the door softly as if he hadn't heard it, and then went to carry out every order given by Digwoody the Slayer, because he had followed Digwoody all the way from that hellish place to get here, and it is no exaggeration to say that no one in this place knew the pain of Digwoody the Killer better than him, but so what, no matter how good your talent is, no matter how great your dreams are, you must always bow your noble head in front of life, because it is all for life。
After talking with Captain Leon in the afternoon, Kreeser dragged his tired body back to his room and began to sleep with his head covered, but this sleep went straight to the next morning, and at the urging of Captain Leon, Kreeser hastily ate breakfast and returned to the road with the caravan.
I have to say that Captain Leon is worthy of being the leader in this industry, it only took a day yesterday afternoon to prepare all the necessary items needed for the entire caravan today, and he was ready to set off again after all the people arrived, but standing in front of the convoy, Kreizer took a look and found that after yesterday's night's rest, there were many less familiar faces in the hired mercenary team, at least a quarter of the people did not appear here, and Captain Leon, who commanded before and after, did not say anything, just commanded the chaotic team in a deep voice.
"Captain Leon, what's going on? Why are there so many fewer people, so we can still get to our destination safely?" Captain Leon shouted to him as he walked past him again.
"Because that guy in Jersey refused to increase the gratuity for what happened last night, so many people chose to terminate the employment agreement, and Jersey let them all go, and now he pinned everything on the ethereal promise that the elf said, and he thought that the elder had sent the elite forces around him, so now in his opinion, it didn't matter if those people left or not. Captain Leon spread his hands and looked helplessly at the Jersey leader who was sitting in the carriage and did not show up, with a helpless expression.
"Then what should we do now? Even our people can't take care of these goods! What should we do if something happens?" Hearing this, even Krezer, who had little travel experience, saw that something was wrong, and he looked at Captain Leon a little impatiently.
"I don't know, let's take it one step at a time! Luckily there are basically no big bandits left on the rest of the journey, as long as we reach Tuscaloosa safely, we will be safe, and at the speed we are traveling now, we should be able to meet the men sent by the Elder Tomorrow at the earliest. Captain Leon frowned and explained slowly to Krazier, seeing that the latter only frowned and did not say anything, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately, the young man in front of him did not directly terminate the employment agreement like those people, otherwise the following journey would not be able to go on at all.
Looking at Krezer, whose brows were twisted into a twisted shape, Captain Leon paused and continued cautiously. "The rest of the road is up to you, Wizard Krezer, you see that the sky is so gloomy, I guess there is going to be a big storm coming, we must hurry up and get to the city of Tuscaloosa before the storm comes, if it rains on the road, not only will the goods be damaged, but even we will be sick, and if we get sick between the two cities, then our road will be even more difficult. ”
"Well, I'll do my best! I can't take care of the whole team alone, and I can only hope that there won't be any more major problems on the way forward. Facing the expectant gaze of Captain Leon, Krazer also had no confidence at this moment, he hesitated and looked at the Jersey boss who was dancing in the carriage, and finally shook his head helplessly, touched Thanatos standing on his shoulder, and felt inexplicably irritable, but he couldn't help but think about the ruffian-like elf Rodley and the strange black shadow that appeared on the city wall that night.
Perhaps because there were so many fewer people, the whole team was surprisingly quiet along the way, and the mercenaries who stayed behind had no intention of talking to each other, they just hung their heads and moved forward, even so, after it was completely dark, this distance was only less than half the distance. Looking at these decadent mercenaries, Captain Leon sighed helplessly, and after ordering to spend the night on the side of the road, he hurried towards the carriage where the Jersey leader was, and after a while, Kréser heard a fierce quarrel from the carriage, and then saw Captain Lyon angrily leave the Jersey leader's carriage and lead everyone to light a bonfire.
This gloomy weather made everyone's hearts have a dull and unbearable feeling, and for a time the whole team was filled with a dull and uneasy mood, even the always lively and active Thanatos seemed to feel this atmosphere, and jumped from Kreser's left shoulder to the right shoulder uneasily, refusing to stop for a moment. And just like that, it didn't take long for Kreezer to choose a place as well, to lie down, and although he was not tired, he forced himself to fall asleep, because he didn't know what was waiting for them tomorrow.
The next morning, the caravan's next destination, a little farther away from Tuscaloosa, was unbelievably unexpected, but on the wide road, there were six well-armed mercenaries, lined up neatly in the middle of the road.
"Boss, shall we stand in the middle of the road, do I look handsome, which posture is more handsome?" said a young man in silver leather armor with two daggers the length of his forearms at his waist, and from time to time he struck a smug pose.
"Okay, how can you attract the attention of beautiful women with your small body, how can you have a figure like mine. The strong man who was more than two meters tall among the six said sullenly, waving his thick arms as thick as the thighs of ordinary people, bending his bulging muscles from time to time to show his strength to his companions, and it seemed that his arms were almost as thick as the thighs of a young man in white armor.
"Come on, stupid big man, I'm still the most manly, haven't you heard that concentrated is the essence! The dwarf with the mace on his back of the five retorted dismissively.
"What are you talking about, dead dwarf, when your blacksmith goes, come and join in the fun, the big man will have great strength, great strength, great strength means strong strength, understand!" The two-meter-tall strong man lowered his head and looked at the dwarf only up to his waist in defiance.
"What's the use of having a lot of strength? Who said that a person with a lot of strength must be useful? The strength of digging out a lot of dung is not small, can you compare with him!" the dwarf with the pointed hammer on his back rolled his eyes and retorted angrily.
"You don't know who secretly drinks milk and goat's milk every day, and I don't know which witch said that drinking more milk can grow taller. The speaker was a young man with a long bow and a large-brimmed hat with a long feather stuck in the back of the hat, and the low brim of the hat made it impossible to see his face.
"Don't talk about other people, don't you smear some messy things on your face every day! You say that you are a big man and a woman who have to wipe things on your face every day, and you are embarrassed to talk about others. Look at me, I'm different, I'm born with a natural complexion, look at my milky skin, and look at my full and unexaggerated muscles are simply handsome, aren't you fascinated by me! The young man in silver leather armor with two daggers the length of his forearms stuck in his waist looked at the four people next to him triumphantly.
"Less, I didn't know what to think at the beginning, but I actually agreed to the regiment commander to come to the second combat team! There is no normal person here, either a short man or a reckless man, either a freak who can fight freaks better than a woman or a narcissist, am I the only one who is a normal person!!!" The speaker was a young man with colorful hair, a disheveled head, and several golden earrings on his ears, who spread his hands helplessly and sighed.
"Come on, you're the most abnormal of us, I'm a hard-working guy, what about you! You're a respected magician, look at your dress, are you still a respected magician?, look in the mirror, the thugs on the street are a hundred times stronger than you!" the other four unceremoniously joined forces and retorted.
The last one is a strong man with two giant swords on his back, and his height is more than two meters, and his explosive muscles show his strength, at this moment he helplessly stroked his forehead with his hand, listening to the five people who were already noisy around him, and involuntarily covered his face with his hands and hung his head helplessly.
And the conversation of a father and son who were passing by him jumped clearly into his ears.
"Daddy, Daddy, what's the matter with these six weird uncles, how are they standing in the middle of the road, aren't they afraid of being hit by a carriage?" asked a fat-faced little boy pointing at them to the middle-aged man beside him.
"Hurry up, don't talk much. These six people may have a problem with their heads, so let's stay away from them. The middle-aged man carefully looked at the few people blocking the middle of the road, and dragged the little boy out of here quickly.
"That's enough, this damn weather is coming to make trouble, it's really hot to death, it looks like there's going to be a storm in a while, you all five hide in the woods for me to don't embarrass me. Keep your eyes open for me, if you let the target go, you can explain to the regiment commander yourself, do you hear!hmm, you five guys!" The strong man with two giant swords on his back just wiped the sweat on his head, but when he turned around, he found that he didn't know what the five young men had been fighting together.
Seeing this scene, the strong man with two giant swords on his back opened his nostrils angrily, only to see him trembling with both hands to take off the giant swords behind him and knock them together fiercely, with a loud bang, it immediately attracted the five people who were fighting together, he took a deep breath and rushed over like a raging bison.
"Oh no, the boss is angry, run!"
Seeing this scene, I don't know who shouted, and the five people who were fighting together quickly separated, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, and disappeared on the road in a few clicks.
"Whew, whew!"
The brawny man wielding two giant swords withdrew his giant swords and gasped like an angry bull, glaring at a pair of bull's eyes and then disappearing into the road.
