Chapter 47: Blood Splash
Greed is in nature, and if it weren't for greed, who would be a merchant in Stormwind?
As if they had concerns, these merchants secretly observed the faces of their peers while moving slightly, and when they saw the unconcealable greed, their hearts resounded with laughter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yes, no one would have the courage to pick up these silver coins if they were alone, but it was different when everyone swarmed them.
"Is it true, is it true, can you pick up this money casually?!"
A thin figure suddenly burst out of the crowd, an ecstatic mercenary, who threw himself down in front of the Red Rock Thieves, grabbed a handful of shiny silver coins and shoved them into his arms.
Lindsay, who was watching this scene from afar, noticed the appearance of the mercenary from the gap in the crowd, and her face changed slightly.
That man was a skinny mercenary with a twisted smile and recklessly turning over the corpses of the dead, and only someone like him would pick up the money in plain sight.
"Hmph, what Lao Tzu said, is it a fart?"
The man in the iron helmet looked down at the thin mercenary covered in mud, and snorted softly, his tone suddenly softened.
"Oh, thank you, thank you."
The skinny mercenary smiled dirty, squinting as he grabbed the brown cloth bag with a gap, and the silver coins spilled out, and his actions almost made the distant merchants almost glare.
"Damn, this guy, he picked up the corpse and tried to touch my silver coins."
"Stop! Idiot! ”
"Which caravan guy, bring this hillbilly back for me!"
Several merchants cursing, rolled up their sleeves and walked towards the location of the thin mercenary, although they looked at the posture to capture the man back, their eyes were fixed on the brown cloth bag in the thin mercenary's hand.
"Hey, Lao Tzu's stuff, Lao Tzu won't give it-"
The thin mercenary smiled, showing his dark yellow teeth, and just stood up, wanting to show off the cloth bag in his hand, but the sound of breaking the air sounded in his ears.
"Woohoo!"
Steel arrows shot through cracks in the forest, piercing the thin mercenary's head with precision, and sinking into the mud in front of the merchants.
There seemed to be a magic fluctuation in the arrows, and the thin mercenary's skull was frighteningly broken, like the broken money bag, and he staggered to the ground, blood and brains slowly pouring out, covering the shiny silver coins all over the ground.
Several people who wanted to follow the merchants paused and looked at the scene in front of them in a daze.
“・・・”
The merchants who rolled up their sleeves were speechless, their faces were pale, they looked at the iron-helmeted man in front of them with frightened eyes, and subconsciously stepped back.
"I didn't get the money, so I left?"
The man in the iron helmet smiled bloodthirstily as he looked at the merchants who were shrouded in fear.
Yes, he didn't intend to give the merchants silver coins from the beginning, he just wanted to make fear spread like a plague among the merchants, so as to make it happy.
"There's always someone to deal with you!"
"Don't, don't be arrogant! You're just a thief! ”
"Hurry up, hurry up, go away."
The merchants looked at the surrounding forest with a frightened gaze, fearing that an arrow would shoot out and take their lives, and they crawled back into the crowd.
Although it was a crowd, the merchants who had begun to retreat had realized the tyranny and cruelty of the Iron Helmet Man, and they could only hide their fear and resentment in their hearts, and their minds were full of thoughts of hurrying out of this place.
The scattered shouting and scolding gradually faded away, and under the intimidation of the man in the iron helmet, the merchants left behind the two surrounded convoys at the rear, and fled in a hurry, and disappeared without a trace.
"Clean up the mess, the money is still useful."
The man in the iron helmet whispered to his subordinates, who nodded calmly and began to clean up.
Seeing the body of the skinny mercenary being carried down by several Red Rock thieves, the man in the iron helmet turned leisurely to look at the middle-aged merchant with a gloomy expression.
"Guess where he's going to be left behind?"
"This is the team of the Stormwind 'Mercester' Chamber of Commerce, you better weigh yourself before you start."
The middle-aged merchant ignored the iron-helmeted man's question, and pointed to the sign on his chest, which was a grizzly bear with teeth and claws.
Stormwind's "Mercester" Chamber of Commerce is the largest in the region, and it is to Stormwind what "Altai" is to Strange Rock City. Although Lindsay has not seen Stormwind City with her own eyes, she knows this chamber of commerce, and she and Leo chose to walk at the back of the entire team group, just because they feel that the team of this chamber of commerce is behind them, and they feel solid when they think about it.
But such a reassuring convoy was found by the Red Rock thieves, and Leo's mood at this time was really indescribable.
"Lost in the Storm Sea and returned to the arms of the god of the sea, it's a good place to bury bones, isn't it?"
The man in the iron helmet pursed his lips, looking a little lacking in interest, and he was a little dissatisfied with the middle-aged businessman's reaction.
Several mercenaries next to the middle-aged merchant suddenly drew their sharp swords, their eyes were calm, and although they were surrounded by red rock thieves, they did not show the slightest hint of panic. With the help of Iros's perception, Leo knew that they were second-level warriors.
Although the Red Rock Thieves surrounded the two convoys, judging from the number of mercenaries, it seemed that there were not as many mercenaries who had drawn their swords and were ready to meet the enemy, although they were all first-class warriors.
Strangely, after the mercenaries of these convoys drew their swords, the surrounding Red Rock thieves still looked calm, much more than the well-trained knights, obviously, they would not act rashly without the orders of the Iron Helmet Man.
"I said, this lord, I'm just a small chamber of commerce, your target is the 'Mercedes' Chamber of Commerce, all my goods are given to you, can you let me go?"
"Please..."
Of the two convoys that were surrounded, there was a small chamber of commerce, and the owner was already trembling with fright, he had no money to hire any guards, and this time he was only transporting some iron products, and he was in tears, kneeling on the ground and begging the man in the iron helmet.
“・・・”
The man in the iron helmet glanced down at the dwarf man, looked away indifferently, and then caught a beast cart sandwiched between the two convoys.
Not to mention that it is a first-class magical beast at first glance, and the driver on it is not a strong groom, but a little girl.
There was also the symbol of Strange Rock City on the body, and the man in the iron helmet stopped his gaze on the logo of Strange Rock City for a moment, and then moved his gaze back to the short man in front of him.
"Do it."
His eyes instantly sharpened, and then he turned the blade in his hand slightly, and then stepped away.
The short man's pupils shrank, and he felt a breeze blowing, and the man in front of him disappeared, blood gushing out of his neck, filling his blurred vision. He stared at his blood-red eyes and clutched his neck, but he couldn't stop the blood, fell to the mud and twitched twice, and then didn't move.
As if it were a signal, the Red Rock thieves who were waiting for an opportunity around them neatly drew their sharp blades and rushed towards the "Merceste" convoy like wild wolves.
"Prepare to meet the enemy!"
The middle-aged merchant reacted extremely quickly, and immediately yelled, and then motioned to his subordinates to turn on the magic device for the team's backup, and the pale green magic barrier was extremely wide, instantly enveloping the chaotic field.
Suddenly, the surrounding leaves sounded the sound of breaking, and everyone's hearts were pang.
"Woohoo!" "Woohoo!" "Woohoo!"
Steel arrows rained down from the sky like a previous rainstorm, and under the horrified eyes of the middle-aged businessman, they shot at his convoy, the activated magical barrier.
