In the border forests of Bishopric Stanley and Randallshire, a path runs through a dense forest that, apart from the occasional wild beast, is the territory of lawless bandits who use the dense woods as cover for the professed free, who jump out and rob lone travelers whenever they pass by.

Thus the border forest was called the Grey Forest, and today the Grey Forest welcomed an uninvited group of guests, and Bruce rode around to look at the dense forest, the lush foliage of the tall cedar trees almost obscuring the sky, and only the sporadic sunlight leaked down.

"Why are we going here?" Bruce asked Louise in confusion that they had come on a different road, where there were frequent travelers and merchants.

"It's a shortcut, we have something to do, so it's faster to take this path." Louise smiled slightly at the corners of her mouth and explained to Bruce.

"We're going back to Greenton, so why should we follow this path?" Mavis said with some dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry, this road is also close to the Duchy of Bemessy." After listening to Louise's explanation, everyone stopped refusing, after all, the journey in this era was not easy, and no one wanted to sleep in the wild.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded in the forest that obscured the sky, and even the tall Sir Hilton looked wary, but his burly stature and delicate armor were enough to make the young men shy away.

"What's going on up ahead?" Just as they were about to walk out of the forest, they noticed an overturned truck in the middle of the road, and an old man was sitting on the ground against the truck, his forehead was bleeding and he looked embarrassed.

"What's wrong?" A Randall knight hurriedly stepped forward and asked the wounded old man.

"Ahh The old man stretched out his hand tremblingly, babbling in such a way that the knight could not hear it clearly as he sat on his horse.

Bruce looked at the old man who had fallen next to the van, and he felt a strange feeling, and just as he was thinking, Sir Hilton opened his mouth and said to the crowd.

"Looks like a merchant who has met a robber, poor fellow."

"Merchant?" Bruce listened to Sir Hilton's words, and looked carefully at the wounded old man.

At this moment, the Randall knight jumped off his horse and walked towards the old man, and suddenly, Bruce shouted a warning shout.

"Don't go over, it's a trap."

"What?" Louise and Sir Hilton looked at Bruce in surprise, only to see that Bruce had drawn the sword from his waist and jumped off his horse, seeing Bruce's actions, Sir Hilton and the other two knights also quickly drew their weapons from their waists, and Eve held the bow in his hand and drew the arrow from the quiver.

"Uh-huh." Just as Bruce and the others drew their weapons, the old man who looked weak jumped up from the ground, slipped a sharp knife out of his sleeve, he pounced on Randall Knight, and stabbed the knight's neck accurately with the knife, blood flowed down the knight's neck, and the Randall knight who was suddenly attacked covered his wound with his backhand, and he fell to his knees with wide eyes.

"Ahhhh Wild shouts rang out from the bushes on both sides, and more than a dozen robbers with various weapons jumped out, brandishing their rudimentary weapons in their hands and attacking Bruce and the others.

"Whoosh." An arrow knocked the old man to the ground, and Eve quickly drew another arrow after shooting one arrow, and flew out one after another at the group of robbers who rushed up, and each time an arrow flew out, the robbers on the opposite side were shot to the ground.

"Mavis and Anne are hiding behind me." Bruce held the sword in his hand and said to Mavis and Anne.

"Damn robbers." Seeing his companion stabbed by a knife and falling to the ground, Sir Hilton was furious, and he rushed out of the circle formed with Bruce and the others, and struck the bandits alone among the bandits, and with a wave of his sword, he slashed the bandit in rags, and the severed limbs and slimy entrails fell around Sir Hilton.

"It's bad luck." Edward gripped the sword in one hand, and he swallowed, grumbling in his mouth.

The other two Randall knights protected Louise in the middle, and they kept their duty even in the face of the noisy bandits, and Louise was very calm, and she watched the robbers who kept rushing at her as if she were watching a play.

"The narrow road is in our favor, and Edward will go up with me to block the intersection." Bruce took a closer look at the terrain, the terrain here is a rugged forest mountain road, lined with steep slopes, which is why the other party wants to lead them to the truck place, because the terrain there is relatively flat, if people block the front and back roads, there is really only a fate to be slaughtered.

"I, I." Edward hesitated, Bruce didn't wait for him to rush alone, Mavis and Anne looked at him with contempt, which made Edward really unbearable and had to follow hard.

Most of the robbers used pitchforks and sharpened wooden sticks, and most of them were in tattered clothes and had no armor, but with the strength of the crowd, these robbers leaned close together and poked their spears at Bruce.

"Scandium." Bruce hurriedly swung the iron sword in his hand, blocking the spear tips that reached out of the way, and preventing the bandits from approaching, but he alone could not hold the entire defense.

"Go and help him." Louise saw Bruce, who rushed forward to block the robbers alone, and she hurriedly ordered the two knights beside her.

"But the hostess~~." The two knights said hesitantly, but they were glared at by Louise, they hurriedly saluted Louise and rushed forward with their swords in hand, and the addition of the two knights made Bruiston feel less stressed.

At this time, only Mavis, Anne, Eve, and Louise were left on the vacated road, and Eve supported the knights from the rear, Mavis, Anne, and Louise leaned together, perhaps attracted by Louise's gorgeous dress, and the robbers decided that Louise must be a big man, and as long as they caught Louise, they could get a large ransom, so the robbers desperately wanted to rush in the direction of Louise.

"Ah~." Edward, who was supposed to plug another gap, screamed and was pushed to the ground by the robbers, and several robbers ignored Edward, who rolled to the side, and they howled and rushed towards Louise.

"Not good." Bruce stabbed a dekempt in the chest with his sword, only to see the robbers rushing towards Anne and the others, he was shocked and tried to withdraw from the defense, but he was entangled and couldn't move, and the other two knights couldn't turn around.

"Mistress." Sir Hilton, who rushed into the midst of the robbers, also exclaimed, he was not afraid of the robbers' attacks with his sturdy armor, but he could not immediately return to Louise's side at this time.

"Brush." Louise's face grimened, but she didn't flinch as she drew a silver-hilted dagger from her boot and pointed it at the rushing bandits.

"Whoosh." An arrow went over Louise's shoulder and struck the front robber in the forehead, and the robber rolled over and died, but more robbers rushed forward.

Mavis held Anne behind her, and she pulled a pinch of powder from the herb bag around her waist and blew it into the face of a robber who was sticking out his dirty paws towards her.

"Woo, ahh The powder smacked the robber's face, and the robber suddenly felt itchy and painful on his face, and the pain became more and more intense, and he couldn't help but throw away the spear in his hand and roll on the ground.

With a wave of her hand, Mavis jumped out of her sleeve a large, colorful spider, which landed on the body of another robber and unceremoniously burrowed into his clothes, and the robber who felt something was wrong screamed and jumped.

"Huh?" Louise's eyes were full of curiosity when she saw Mavis's movements, but Mavis smiled at her and silently moved her fingers.

"Kill~." Sir Hilton, in the case of the protection of the master, he slashed the big sword in his hand like a windmill, the sharp tip of the sword will hurt the muscles and bones, and gradually the robbers can not support it and flee in embarrassment, Bruce and the two knights take the opportunity to chase and kill.
