Since the outbreak of the war between Noxus and Ionia, large swathes of western Ionia have become occupied areas. The Noxian army did not complete the transition of domination very smoothly, and as the front continued to advance eastward, troops were drawn from the rear to the front, and the commanders of the entire western continent felt stretched in their forces.

The migration of large numbers of people to the east in the early stages of the war also led to a sharp decrease in population density in the west, so that most of the west became a sparsely populated wilderness, with the exception of a few famous towns.

Against this background, the remnants of the western region gradually gathered in the wilderness and formed many bandit gangs to rob passers-by and even some small Noxian squads. These people hid in dense jungles or mountainous areas with complicated terrain every time they finished their votes, and Noxus could not organize enough people to carry out a large-scale cleanup of them, which felt like they could not be forced.

At this time, the group of guys who surrounded the three of them was one of the bandit gangs in this area. Before the war, they were idle and unprofessional hooligans in nearby villages, and after the outbreak of the war, they did not move with the others.

"Boss, we haven't opened for a week, and I don't know how much oil and water this guy can fish."

"Whatever, it's hard for someone to pass by, and the one who sent it to the door can still let him run away? Shall the brethren drink the northwest wind? This place is getting worse and harder, so let's go east after this time. ”

"Then let's hurry up and get on it while he still doesn't wake up."

"Okay, it's still the old rule later, the second brother, you take five or six brothers to block the back road, don't let this kid run away, I'll take the big guy to control him from the front. Although there is only one person on the other side, it is better to be cautious. ”

One of them nodded, and led five or six people around behind the big tree where Ling Tianmao was sleeping.

The rest of the people crept towards Ling Tianmao.

But after a few steps forward, an explosion suddenly sounded from the feet of one of them, and a cloud of purple smoke rose up, and he and his two companions around him were shrouded in smoke and staggered down.

No sooner had the explosion sounded than a small figure flew out of the grass.

"Whoosh", accompanied by a piercing sound that cut through the air, something kept shooting from the figure towards the bandits. By the time Ling Tianmao opened his eyes, all the bandits had already fallen to the ground, except for a few who were unconscious at the beginning, everyone else had a small blow arrow tied around their necks.

These people used to be some unruly guys in the village, but after the war, they barely gathered together to survive, and they had no discipline at all, let alone righteousness. The remaining guys in the back saw that their companions in front of them were all wiped out for a while, and they all turned around and ran.

But it was too late, and suddenly there was a loud bang from the tree above the heads of several people, and then countless shrapnel flew towards them wrapped in the flames. None of the robbers were spared, and they all fell to the ground.

Ling Tianmao had just stood up at this time, and Tristana had already jumped down from the tree.

"That Dahl, you go and see if there are a few alive over there, I'm going to smell them and ask them where they came from, and they dare to beat me, these guys are really impatient."

He didn't feel anything when Tristana sent out the attack, and it wasn't until he arrived at the scene of the attack that he finally felt the destructive power of the small cannon in her hand.

The land within an area of tens of square meters has turned black, and several places are even blazing. And the five or six guys who attacked them were already lying quietly on the ground, covered with bullet holes of various sizes.

Looking at these corpses with blurred flesh and blood and beaten like a hornet's nest, Ling Tianmao couldn't help but feel a little afraid, if Tristana had said anything wrong when he interrogated him yesterday, I'm afraid it would have ended up like this now.

It didn't take long for Ling Tianmao to finish inspecting the scene, and none of these people survived.

He walked back to the campfire and shook his head at Tristana.

"Ah, they're all dead, it seems that next time the gunpowder will be a little less decorated, so I have to leave a living mouth to ask. But it's okay today, Teemo seems to have caught two, you go and help tie them up. ”

Ling Tianmao walked up to Timo, who was holding a few ropes in his hand, and when he saw Ling Tianmao coming over, he handed the rope to him, pointing to the three guys lying on the ground:

"The three of them, they just stepped on the trap, and now they have passed out, and you have twenty minutes to tie them up."

Ling Tianmao glanced at the remaining people around him, their chests were no longer heaving, they had long since stopped breathing, and the skin on their necks near the place where they were pierced by the blow arrow had turned black and purple. It seems that Teemo did show mercy to his men yesterday, and only used a narcission blow arrow to attack himself.

Ling Tianmao used a rope to tie the hands and feet of the three people together, and then went to the river to fetch a basin of water and splashed it on the faces of the three people.

Stimulated by the cold water, the three people slowly woke up from their coma.

They saw the two yodelers standing in front of them and looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. But then they saw their companions who had fallen around them, and their bodies trembled involuntarily. They never thought they would be planted in the hands of two yodelers who came out of nowhere.

"How long have you been bandits?" Teemo stood in front of the three of them with a twig in his hand.

"We're doing this for the first time today......" one of the bald heads replied preemptively.

"Smack!" The branch was pumped on the bald head, leaving a red mark: "Do you think I'm easy to fool?" There is no shop in front of the village here, the first time you have done this kind of thing today? So you all ate air before? I warn you, if you lie, you're going to end up with those guys, and a prisoner who doesn't tell the truth is no different from a dead man. And the one who tells us the most information, I can consider letting him live, and you take advantage of the opportunity. ”

The bald head silently lowered his head.

"Again, how long have you been doing this here?"

"To tell you the truth, we've been in this area since the Noxus army occupied the area, and we can't be called bandits, so a few brothers will eat." The other thin man hurriedly replied, and the remaining two also nodded frequently.

"Have you ever done anything to the yodelers?" Teemo's eyes narrowed slowly.

"Yes...... Some ......," the thin man nodded.
