297 Accidents are everywhere
"Bruce!"
"Bruce!!"
The group walked slowly on the route Bruce had originally planned, calling the names of Bruce and the others - 新-奇 Chinese.xin-iqi - but found nothing.
"Strange, Bruce, where can they go?" Shia felt something strange.
"yes." Even a big grin, like Colfax, felt that something was getting wrong. "It's getting dark. Even if you go farther, it's time to turn back. You won't encounter any enemies, will you? We didn't see a ghost along the way. ”
Angela frowned, "They can't go in the wrong direction, right?" ”
"In the opposite direction?"
Angela raised her chin and pointed at Till's hand. The majestic walls blend in with the darkness at night. It was already dark at this time, but there was not even a single light inside the city walls.
...... the Hand of Tyr?
Colfax scratched his head and said, "Didn't General Abydis leave with his troops from the docks behind the Hand of Tyr?" There can't be anyone in the current Hand of Tyr! ”
Sia said uncertainly, "Maybe there are a few people left?" Either we go over there, and when we get there, I'll hide in the back and let Angela negotiate. Anyway, it's just a letter. ”
That's all there is to a few people combined.
On the way to the Hand of Tyr, everyone chatted.
The Hand of Tyr, who was completely empty, Colfax sighed: "Since General Abidis led the army away, the Hand of Tyr has become very deserted! ”
Angela glared at him, "I miss General Abydis!" Hum! Less pretending!! ”
Colfax blushed, but fortunately it was dark enough that no one cared. He looked left and right and said to him: "This ...... The corpse of Liwei who was sanctioned by them on the road ahead of you is gone. ”
"It sounds like it's true." Thea looked around the sides of the road. Previously, anyone who had been killed by the Scarlet Crusaders who were not members of the Order would be killed on the spot and hung from branches on both sides of the road to deter latecomers.
In the heyday of the Scarlet Crusaders, there were many corpses hanging from the roads on both sides. Along with the Silver Dawn for the Allies, they will also be careful to avoid their patrols. And now, with the transfer of personnel of the Scarlet Crusade. It is estimated that there are not many people left behind by the Hand of Tyr, so they no longer come out to patrol, so the bodies that were hung by the roadside are almost gone.
Angela sighed, "That's good." You don't know how scary this road used to be. Every time I was asked to negotiate with them, I had to be scared. Those guys. It's not that I say anything, it's just a terrorist with a paranoid brain! ”
"Wait, how can there be a sound!" Colfax interrupted Angela's grumbling and signaled for silence.
It's quiet all around. was reminded by Colfax, and sure enough, everyone heard the faint sound of fighting.
Thea affirmed, "It's the direction of Tyr's hand!" ”
"Anyway, let's hurry over! I have a bit of a bad premonition. ”
Without further ado, Colfax sped up the group. As we approached Tyr's hand, the sounds of the battle became clearer, interspersed with several roars.
"Bruce's voice!!" Thea, who was best with Bruce, heard his voice as soon as she heard it.
"How could Bruce fight the men of the Hand of Tyr?" Angela wondered.
Thea agreed: "Uncle Bruce has a hot temperament. But it's definitely not going to be nonsense. There must be some reason!! ”
"Now is the time to care about this!! Hurry up!! Colfax urged.
When a few people rushed to the front, the situation in front couldn't help but gasp.
The Hand of Tyr is the Scarlet Crusader's largest base in the Plaguelands. The Scarlet Crusaders manage it so strictly that even new recruits to the Scarlet Crusaders are not eligible to enter.
But now, who is going to tell them how those zombie-like creatures with their eyes shining with a faint green light in the fight against Bruce and the others could have appeared in such a place where heresy is strictly forbidden.
"Bruce!!" Colfax roared, drew the big sword he was carrying with his backhand, and jumped out with an arrow step under his feet.
"Colfax!" Bruce wiped his face, but the sweat and blood on his face were even more smudged by his face. "You're here? Thank you so much to the Light!! ”
Angela casually threw an arcane bullet and smashed a zombie that almost pounced on Bruce, but she really didn't give up. "Why are you so embarrassed? Ha. If we hadn't come, we would have been here today. ”
"Go, go!! The little girl is less talking! ”
His own reinforcements arrived, and the members of the team, led by Bruce, were in high spirits. With the help of reinforcements, the enemy was quickly and completely wiped out.
"Uncle, what's going on?" Shia asked as she treated Bruce and the others. "How did you come here? And, those who fought with you...... What is it? ”
"yes, Bruce." Colfax also grimaced after counting the number of people. "How could your squad have suffered so many casualties?"
The healing of the Holy Light relieved Bruce, who had been stiffening, but remembered everything that had happened and his dead companions. The heroic dwarf couldn't help but look gloomy. But now is not the time to chat here, and Bruce is straightforward but not reckless.
"Go back! Let's talk about it when we go back!! Now the most important thing is to get out of here! I have something important to report to Lord Fording and the Commander. ”
He was vague about the direction of Tyre's hand, and was silent about what was happening, but quickly left the place with the big guy.
See Bruce so insistence. Xia and the others also had a premonition that something big must have happened. So the group returned to the Chapel of Silver Dawn as fast as they could.
Bruce and Sia immediately went to see Fordin and Maxwell. That's what happened.
"Bruce, you say. Have something important to report? How did you get hurt like this? Furding was surprised to see Bruce's embarrassed look.
"Yes. Here's the thing. Today I led the patrol and everything went well when we reached the fork in the road with Cowlin and the Hand of Tyr. Just as we were about to go back, Neil from the team said he had a stomachache and needed to go. ”
"Neil? The new lad? ”
"Well, that's right." Bruce sighed. "We were waiting for him on the side of the road. Who knows, just for a while. Something we didn't think of happened. (To be continued.) )
