"You have encountered the enemy of the world of your own plane, the bandits. From this moment on, you have officially entered the adventure of the Plane World.

This is Middle-earth, where magic and reality coexist. Dark shadows loom over this once peaceful land.

In the year 2129 of the Second Age, the Dark Lord Neo Manse captured Verona, the capital of the human kingdom. The following year, elves and humans formed an alliance to resist the Dark Lord. In 2137, Neomanter killed the elven and then the human monarch in battle, but he himself was cut off by the human prince Egner, whose finger was wearing the Origin Ring, and Neomanter's body was reduced to ashes, and his people fled into the mountains. Prince Egner seized the Origin Ring, but he refused to destroy it and took it for himself. In the second year of the Third Age, the triumphant Prince Aegner was ambushed and killed, and his body and Origin Ring were lost in the endless wilderness and never to be found.

Around the year 1000 of the Third Age, Neo Manse reappeared as a necromancer on the Western Continent, and the flames of war were rekindled. ”

"Reminder, the bandits you have encountered are extremely weak beings in the world of this plane. If you value your life, do not try to explore or fight against the powerful in this world. ”

The hints given to contractors by the dimensional space are very useful, intuitively showing the enemy's ability level, and also hinting at the background of the world.

Xiao Yan found that the attributes of this bandit were not high, and he was not necessarily his opponent in a one-on-one situation. However, they are all armed with bows and arrows, sabers and other weapons, and most likely hidden weapons such as throwing knives, and the bandits also have leather armor on their bodies, which has some advantages over themselves who only have an axe and a shield.

The horses of the three bandits were not very good, and they walked slowly on the road. In this context of the Middle Ages, the cost of raising a war horse was extremely high. War horses can't only use grass as feed like bad horses, they need to mix at least half of the beans as concentrate, and they need to mix two eggs every few days to supplement the horse's nutrition, and apples and carrots should also be supplemented from time to time. Otherwise, the war horse will lose fat and lose its combat effectiveness. In the Middle Ages, where productivity was limited, ordinary people could drink wheat porridge and eat turnips, but beans were scarce, not to mention the luxury of eggs.

The bandits didn't have much money to take care of the horses, and the three horses chewed on the bushes on the roadside as they went. The three of them were sparsely pulled away dozens of meters away.

"They're in the same direction as us, could it be the sentinels who have returned from reconnaissance on Reed Manor? If we want to avoid them, we can only go back to the woods, not to mention the difficult road, and it is easy to get lost," Xiao Yan lowered his head and thought for a while, "And we need their equipment and horses. Do any of you dare to go with me? ”

Everyone was silent, and several men who had chosen weapons lowered their heads, obviously not confident in their own abilities.

After the bloody experience before, the spirit of this group of contractors is on the verge of collapse.

"Donkey ball, leave the lead one to me." Wang Hu held a knife in his hand and snatched a shield from one of his hands.

"I can shoot the last one first, Griffith, you go and take the middle one." Galadia took the longbow and held it in her hand, nodding firmly.

The traveler and the bishop also offered to help, and the five men carefully touched it.

The three thieves staggered along the road like this, and when the man in the middle passed in front of Xiao Yan's ambush, Galadia, who was hidden behind the trunk of the tree, stood up, drew the longbow with a bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at the last bandit.

But she was still too nervous, and the arrow didn't even show Yicheng's ability, and only hit the horse. The wounded horse rushed headlong with the bandit to the ditch by the side of the road, and rolled down.

Hearing this bow sound, Xiao Yan rushed out as if he had heard the whistle of the opening game, raised his shield and slammed into the horse thief in the middle. Wang Hu rushed forward to meet the horse thief who turned back in surprise.

Before Xiao Yan could rush to arrive, the bandit's bad horse was startled by the figure that came out, and he raised his front hooves high to lift off the unprepared horse thief and choke on the ground. Xiao Yan made up for an axe, and although the horse thief was fallen, he still had time to raise his shield to meet him. The axe sank with great force, leaving a deep gap in the shield.

Xiao Yan continued to slash, but this thief used a round shield to protect himself to death. Xiao Yan paused slightly, raised his sharp axe to avoid the round shield, and slashed down on the bandit's thigh without cover.

The bandit howled in pain, removed his shield and drew his knife to stab, but was chopped down by the condescending Xiao Yan with an axe, and half of his face was cut off from his right ear to his lips.

Looking at the bloodied corpse, Xiao Yan felt a wave of nausea in his heart, but he felt blood gushing up and down his body, and turned his head to look elsewhere. Galadia had missed an arrow before, and was just in time to help, when she was frightened by Xiao Yan's blood-red eyes.

Wang Hu was very unhappy, he fired several shots at the bandits, killing the horses but not the mountain thieves. This thief is also brave, and before being crushed to the ground by the war horse, he can throw a flying knife to concentrate on Wang Hu's right shoulder. The man fell to his knees in blood, and his gun fell to the side.

The traveler and the bishop were on the sidelines, outflanking them. But the bandit pulled out two more throwing knives and stabbed them in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan hurriedly stepped forward. The bandit watched as the reinforcements approached, flipping over and stabbing again. Xiao Yan saw that the thief raised his hand and immediately raised his shield Ichigo, and at the same time squatted down, the flying knife was originally running towards his lower abdomen, and it was extremely vicious, but it was blocked by the middle of the shield, making a "ding" sound.

The bandit missed a blow, so he hurriedly went to dig it again, but his body was pressed by the horse, and several flying knives on the other side of his waist couldn't be pulled out at once. Xiao Yan had already deceived himself, and the shield with his right hand was smashed, and the edge of the iron-clad shield was hard and sharp, only to hear the sound of "pop", and suddenly smashed all over the ground like smashing a watermelon. Galadia couldn't help but turn her head when she saw it in the back.

After killing the two bandits, the group went to check on the last bandit and found him struggling and crawling in the stream after breaking his leg on a rock. Xiao Yan came to his side and wanted to reach out and grab a live, but he didn't expect this thief to pull out his saber and strike a backhand, almost hurting him.

Xiao Yan was startled, kicked the thief in the nose and knocked him over, followed by a knife that pierced his heart, and the blood stained the stream red.

Xiao Yan found that there were dots flashing on the body of the slain bandit, and when he got closer, there was also a gray key between material and illusory floating on the corpse. He hurriedly picked up the key and found that he could get some extra loot.

"You've got equipment: normal leather armor. Grade: Gray (can be used but cannot be taken out of this world). Function: Ranged Defense +2 Melee Defense +1. Evaluation: Provides some ranged defense, weak defense against melee attacks. ”

Unlike the weapons rewarded by the newbie, this leather armor cannot be taken out of this world. The attributes are also sad, but better than nothing.

As the main force participating in the battle just now, Xiao Yan naturally equipped this leather armor. In addition to this, some local currency was obtained

"You have obtained an item: 5 credits (valuables). It can only be used in this world, and you can also exchange it for 5 universal points. ”

Bandits around the world seem to have a habit of keeping gold and silver in their own hands. The loose collective nature of the bandits itself felt that they had to leave a way out for themselves at all times, and that after one day they escaped from the bandits or were defeated by the official army, they could still have some money to live.

Wang Hu also got a leather armor and some coins, which they all put on immediately.

Xiao Yan examined the body of another bandit, found another piece of leather armor and asked the traveler and the bishop what they meant. The two of them didn't use it at all just now, and they both shook their heads and declined the kindness. Xiao Yan handed the leather armor to Galadia. Companions who dare to fight are invaluable in this dangerous world.

The girl's performance in the battle just now was not very good, and she herself was a little ashamed, so she whispered thanks when she took the leather armor.

Seeing that the enemy was eliminated, the other contractors hiding in the woods slowly walked out.

Xiao Yan pondered for a moment, raised his battle axe and cut off the head of the bandit, the splash of blood caused the girls to scream, and Galadia couldn't help frowning. Xiao Yan cut off the heads of three bandits in a row, found a pocket to fill it, and brought the horses of the two surviving bandits for the girls to sit on. Although only one of the inferior horses was slightly injured, it was possible for the packer to keep up with the team.

After killing the three scouts, the contractors realized that time was running out and hurried towards their destination.

The road is getting wider and easier to walk. At the end of this forest path, the group saw a vast and fertile field.
