Chapter 286
However, just as the 'Rune Tree' was about to grow, there was a sudden violent shaking from the outside world, and then the carriage suddenly listened.
Beichuan hurriedly gave up continuing to build runes and opened his eyes...
It was already completely dark, and the caravan was watching around vigilantly with torches.
And the Lancet, Gianna, and the gnomes in the carriage were all gone.
"What's wrong?"
Kitagawa grabbed the coachman sitting in front.
"My lord! We were attacked, and three of them died on the mercenary group's side..."
"Huh?"
Kitagawa frowned and jumped off with one hand on the handrail of the car.
"Be careful, adults!"
Seeing Beichuan jump out of the carriage, the coachman hurriedly shouted.
...
Kitagawa walked through the convoy parked on the road to the place where the torches were most dense...
Sure enough, the big guys are here.
On the ground were three corpses, and the scattered arrows stuck in the corpses all appeared to have been killed by arrows.
"Mr. Higgs! How did you get here? It's not safe here..."
Baldock saw Beichuan coming over and hurriedly said.
"I'm afraid it's even more unsafe if I stay there, let your people put out the torches!"
Beichuan said coldly.
Holding a torch on a night like this, are you really afraid that the other party won't find you? Besides, judging from the behavior of the other party, they seem to have some scruples...
"Hiss~"
Baldock suddenly remembered, and immediately asked his companions to extinguish the torches in their hands.
But he was stopped by the leader of the mercenaries, the Kujit:
"Listen to this little hairy boy? No kidding! It's so dark, how do we move forward when we put out the torches? It's better to rush over in one go! ”
The Kujiit people squinted at Beichuan, their eyes full of disdain!
Beichuan looked at this guy and smiled dumbly:
"Sir, there is an old saying in the old East that says, 'There are eggs under the nest?' If you have a problem with me personally, please don't show it at this time, because you could cost us all our lives..."
Nayan Duokepa's face changed, and he pointed to Beichuan and said loudly under the depression at the end:
"It's just a milky little hairy child, what do you know? Why are you pointing fingers at Lao Tzu? ”
Syllable!
A resounding slap was thrown in the face of the tall Kujitt, but it wasn't Kitagawa who did it...
"Dogba! I always thought you were a well-known man! But I didn't expect you to be such a narrow-minded person, what's the situation now..."
It's Baldock who does it, and Dokeba is his partner for many years! These Kujit had helped him out of danger countless times, but now he couldn't understand Dobak's thoughts.
"Baldock..."
The tall Kugit man was stunned for a moment.
"What are you doing? Don't let your people ...... yet."
However, before Baldock could finish his sentence, a sharp arrow pierced his throat in the darkness.
"Ho ho~"
Baldock clutched his neck in disbelief and slowly fell.
"Baldock!"
The Kugit man stared blankly at his former friend, the big businessman Baldock with his hands and eyes, who died so easily under a dark arrow.
"Extinguish the torches! Extinguish the torch! ”
Kitagawa ran through the crowd shouting...
"Dead~ Dead! I, I... Sinners of the tribe! ”
The burly Kugit man, a giant man of more than two meters, squeezed out tears at this time.
"What are you doing? Don't hurry up and get your people together! ”
But Kitagawa's words were like a stone sinking into the sea, and the Kugit just sat on the ground and stared blankly at Baldock's corpse.
Among the other mercenaries, the Kugit seem to be the majority, and they don't seem to be in a high mood.
The other party should not be strong, so he has some scruples, but after shooting the leader of the caravan, the manpower on this side is obviously in a certain degree of chaos, and at this time, the other party just doesn't come up to attack, then it is really a problem with the brain!
Beichuan sighed, and then suddenly said loudly:
"Come with me all who don't want to die! Mercenaries with shields are outside, others are inside, and enemies have bows and arrows! Block carefully! Pick up all the objects around you that you can use to attack! ”
Beichuan's words woke up a lot of mercenaries who were immersed in the death of the caravan leader and the mercenary captain's emotional out-of-control incident, originally at this time the mercenary captain should have stood up and controlled the overall situation, but looking at the appearance of Doukeba, it seems that he can't count on it...
It seems that this guy is the highest, and according to the custom of the jade soldiers, they should now be under the command of the guy who calls himself Higgs. So the mercenaries picked up their shields one after another, and they gathered more than a dozen good hands in a short time!
And apart from these guys, Beichuan's musketeers never messed around, and Lancet and Gianna were among them, and soon the two groups converged.
But Beichuan whispered something to Lancet, and he took the musketeers and Gianna and a group of charioteers and buddies in a week, and went in the other direction...
At the same time, a dense 'rustle' suddenly appeared in the surrounding grass, and it seemed that the enemy had sneaked up.
"Don't panic, don't panic! Lined up and ready to touch..."
Battles were much more brutal than ever, and people were more likely to collide with each other with their bodies after hand-to-hand combat.
Just listen to a few 'bang bang bang' sounds,
Immediately, a few people were knocked to the ground by the mercenaries...
Only then did Beichuan see the appearance of the person who came clearly, a few pieces of dirty cloth tied to the hand of the shame were long sickles with notches, and the whole person was also thin.
"Sir! It's a bandit! ”
There is a mercenary who is busy on the road to Beichuan.
(Bandits?) Is it really just a bandit? The arrow that pierced Baldock's throat just now was not something that ordinary people could shoot! )
Kitagawa pulled out the odd-shaped knife at his waist, and a puzzle flashed on his face.
A mercenary slapped a round shield in his hand, and knocked a thief to the ground, and the short sword in his right hand was about to stab it, but suddenly a feather arrow pierced his arm...
"Be careful! There are archers on the other side! ”
Kitagawa shouted and joined the battlefield, he didn't want to use the power of the runes yet...
The long knife slashed, and the defenseless bandit fell like mowing grass.
I really don't understand how these guys are so vulnerable, but they still have to rush forward desperately. It's just a desperate stance...
However, these outlaws are not without causing trouble to the mercenaries. There are already at least two or three mercenaries who were dragged by such a guy and then shot by feathered arrows in the dark.
"Shrink the defense! Don't attack..."
Seeing this, Beichuan hurriedly shouted.
Clang!
A knife slashed off an arrow that she wanted to face the door, and Beichuan saw it, the opponent's archery...
The accuracy is good, but it's a pity that the strength is too poor.
"Mr. Higgs! We've got the convoy around! The entrance is on the left..."
Lancet ran over and said.
Kitagawa nodded to him and began to beckon the mercenaries around him:
"Slowly retreat! Right! That's it, keep the formation! ”
...
When everyone completely withdrew into the temporary fortress besieging the carriage, everyone felt the pressure lightened, and the resistance suddenly became loud and vibrant.
Yes~!
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from not far away.
Kitagawa, who has excellent eyesight, clearly saw several bandits flying out in the air....
