Chapter 144: A Weak Gang of Thieves

This is a plain, and on the uninhabited plain, you can see a small grove of trees every now and then adding a little life to this desolate plain.

There is a winding "big road" on the plain, which is said to be a road, but in fact it is just because there are more people walking, and the weeds and clods on it are trampled more smoothly than other places.

At this time, a gang of thieves was straddle the "main road" blocking the way.

The strength of this group of thieves is not money, the number is only more than twenty people, the thieves are wearing colorful clothes, only a few are wearing full armor, and even the weapons in their hands are varied. The more common ones are iron swords with cheeks, iron knives, and even those with flat kitchen knives and sickles.

This kind of weak gang of thieves is actually not small, after all, most of the powerful will choose to live a relatively stable life, such as joining the city guard is a good choice.

With the Austin Empire's emphasis on the military, the treatment of the City Guard sergeants was increased every year, and this year the benefits of the City Guard were increased again, and even the lowest-ranking recruits received a "salary" of two gold coins per month.

That's gold! Two gold coins a month is already a very high income, and a city guard soldier can live a very good life for a family of four with this salary.

Therefore, most of the people who will be thieves are some people who are not strong but are lazy and want to make ill-gotten gains, and only a very small part of them are strong people with the ideal of "occupying the mountain and defending the king".

Looking at the weapons and equipment of these thieves, and then their mental outlook, plus those with high cultivation can easily judge the opponent's strength from the opponent's breathing, pace, stability in the center of the lower plate, and other aspects, so before the battle, everyone in the Austin squad already knew that this was just a small team of thieves who were not enough to pose a threat to them.

Such an unruly team of thieves can only attack some merchants who are lucky enough to venture through the wilderness without hiring guards, or attack some passers-by who walk alone. Like this kind of weak team of thieves, Tong Xi and the others have actually encountered several gangs along the way.

Of course, everyone in the Austin squad felt that there was no threat on the other side, and the other party must have thought the same.

After all, everyone in the Austin squad can comprehensively evaluate the strength from the opponent's equipment, mental state, etc. The other side will also evaluate their strength based on many aspects.

Although all the armor weapons on the Austin squad are "enchanted", magic equipment with special effects, these enchanted equipment has even exceeded the price of other equipment made of the same material several times, for those whose economic conditions are not too good, this is a "high-end product", and ordinary people can't afford to use enchanted equipment.

But whether these uninhabited thieves recognize this kind of "high-end goods" or not......

Although the Austin Squad was wearing full and visibly well-maintained weapons and armor, no matter how well equipped they were, they couldn't hide the fact that they were just a bunch of half-grown children.

Actually, yes, even Bowen, the eldest in the team, is only fifteen years old this year, and he has not yet reached the age of sixteen, and his face is still childish.

……

Such a group of half-grown children, no matter how talented they are, their strength is not much stronger, right?

No matter how good their talent is, it takes time to cultivate, so it's impossible for them to start cultivating in their mother's womb, right?

Look, there's a little girl with a little umbrella over there, wow! This little girl didn't seem to know her situation at this time, and she looked this way curiously!

Huh? Why did the little girl point at them, talking and laughing with the older girl next to her? You can't be laughing at the rags on the people in their bandits, right?

This girl obviously doesn't understand her situation, this is like a group of young ladies and young masters who go out to play adventure games!

Hum! Still laughing! Wait a minute, you're crying! ……

That's what most thieves think......

In fact, Tong Xi's appearance is too deceptive, and no one can imagine how strong this little girl who looks no more than seven or eight years old can be. Even if it is the Austin Demon Martial Arts Academy, where the genius elite gathers, a child of seven or eight years old is equivalent to a child in the first and second grades, and the strongest of those children is only a second-level cultivator.

No matter how strong the talent is, it also takes time to cultivate. If it was only about talent, Tong Xi would definitely not lose to that Prince of Tiger, but the other party was born so many years earlier than her, so Tong Xi's strength would never be able to catch up with the other party......

"Leave it to me this time, right?" Berwen laughed.

Along the way, Tong Xi has already taught some commonly used low-level wind magic to Bowen, although Bowen's magic power at this time is only equivalent to a first-level magician, but just using first-level magic has already had a lot of fighting methods.

Even the combat theory, Tong Xi also taught him all of it, and then it depends on Bowen's own cultivation, after the theory is learned, of course, the next step is to practice.

And these gang of thieves encountered in front of him are just the objects of training.

In fact, all the bands of thieves that I had encountered along the way before were all handed over to Berwen alone.

The opponent was too weak, and everyone in the Austin squad also showed ease.

Brooke, who was standing in front, didn't even draw his weapon, and clasped his hands on his chest as if he was watching the excitement.

The others were similar, all of them stopped and watched as Berwen stepped forward alone.

As for Tong Xi, in the "battle" situation of encountering thieves in this wild, it was easy enough to still casually hold a parasol for others to hold and watch the excitement......

"Boss! The kid who took the lead came over alone! Thief A, who was carrying a rusty iron bar, turned his head and shouted.

"Come and beg for mercy! I heard that these aristocratic masters and young masters are so rich that they are carrying all gold coins! This time, Lao Tzu can catch the fat sheep! The thief's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Actually, we're just here to make money, let them leave their money and leave, I'm really not interested in those sprouts." The head of the thieves who walked in the middle of the line said.

In fact, Wayne, Andrea, and Ciel in the team have all reached the age of development, and the best-developed Wayne has already "begun to take shape", but the childish faces make people feel that they are too young. Of course, there will be people who like this type of childish commission.

But apparently the head of the thieves is not a fan of this type of person......
