Chapter 11: Flame Strike

"Who are you?"

Hu Tian held the bronze sword in his backhand, and the triangular prismatic arrow in the other hand, staring at him vigilantly.

"You're a Templar?" The man looked at Hu Tian and did not answer him, but asked instead, his voice full of doubt and disdain. It doesn't seem to be at all surprised by his presence.

"You don't have to be afraid, I'm not a shadow eagle, let alone a knight hunter, I won't hurt you."

Afraid?

Hu Tian was stunned for a moment, this word had never existed in his dictionary.

The man was hidden in a wide cloak, he couldn't see his face clearly, and his voice seemed to be deliberately muffled, which sounded strange.

He had been hiding in the canopy from the beginning, and it was impossible for Old Man Barry to be unaware of such a small place.

They most likely know each other.

"My name is Hall Slick, I'm going to Feynman City, I was injured on the way, and it was Uncle Barry who rescued me."

The man stood four or five steps away from Hu Tian, kept his distance from him, and briefly introduced himself.

"What are you going to do with the Shadow Hawk?"

"Use them."

Hu Tian pointed to the straw man disguised in clothes on the ground, as well as two jars of fragrant pine cone wine.

"If you want to help, spill the wine on the wagon, all."

"Straw man and wine?" Hall Slick looked at Hu Tian incredulously.

"What, is there a problem?"

"I have to remind you that the strength of this Shadow Eagle Bandit Group is definitely not to be underestimated!"

Hall Slick's tone was accentuated, but he could hear that he was still able to suppress his voice, which made his voice sound like a pig, very awkward.

"They have cannons and hunting carts, light cavalry who are good at archery, and beasts who are good at taming beasts! Their mounts...... All of them are the fiercest wild wolves of the Falcon Plateau! And, have you forgotten why Shadow Hawk is so scary? ”

Hu Tianzheng used rope and materials taken from the carriage to make a simple crossbow, and stopped for his questioning, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Why?"

"Because they know how to form formations! The Shadow Eagles are all battle-trained warriors, because they are the Templars who once betrayed the Sun Temple because they were bewitched by Noah's Holy See, and acted as spies for the war of aggression launched by the Noah's Holy See! Counting up, it has been a full hundred years since Shadow Eagle was expelled from the Sun Temple by the Harilo Empire! ”

I see!

Hu Tian chuckled in his heart, he didn't expect to run into the black and black of the knight's den today.

"The weakest of this bandit group in Pit Viper Canyon is also an ordinary warrior at the fifth level of battle qi, and the leader is an elite warrior who has reached the level of more than ten layers of battle qi."

"You must know that the strength of a single fist can reach five hundred catties in the five layers of battle qi, and the strength of one thousand two hundred catties can be played in the tenth layer of battle qi! Not only that, after ten layers, the battle qi can be condensed and formed, and the increase in fist power can reach more than ten times! A twenty-tier elite-level battle knight is enough to completely suppress ten ten-tier knights single-handedly! ”

"It's a pity that among the active knights of the entire Sun Temple, there is only one Golden Paladin, Lord Iru, who has broken through the elite realm of the thirtieth layer of battle qi and become a higher-level expert-level battle knight. As for the others, most of them hovered below the elite realm. ”

Hall Slick stopped and lifted one arm into the air, looking in great pain, and the arm was shaking.

"I was injured by them, and if Uncle Barry hadn't rescued me, I'm afraid I would never have seen such a beautiful sunset again......"

He lowered one hand, and the combination of black tanned leather gloves and ordinary coarse cloth cloak looked very unusual.

"Huh?"

Hu Tian's eyes narrowed, and he saw a circle of gem-encrusted bracelets exposed under the gloves.

A man who wears a gemstone bracelet?

Hall Slick didn't notice Hu Tian's abnormality, and seemed to be immersed in memories.

"As a Templar, you shouldn't forget the shame of the battle against bandits in Viper Canyon, right? A full twelve heavily armed bronze knights, under the sneak attack of the shadow eagle...... Annihilated! ”

"Damn!"

He gritted his teeth and cursed, and it seemed that the impact of this incident on him was huge.

"You're done?"

Hu Tian tried the crossbow he had just made in his hand, and said lightly, "Since you hate them so much, then I'll leave it to you here!" ”

"So you're a coward!" Hall Slick said disdainfully.

"You can do it, you can do it."

Hu Tian didn't raise his head, he concentrated on adjusting the bowstring of the crossbow, copied the grass and wine, and got into the canopy of the carriage with a hairy cat, and soon, the fragrance of pine cone wine permeated around the carriage.

He did these things calmly, without the slightest hint of nervousness, as if the Shadow Eagle's attack had nothing to do with him at all.

This made Hall Slick a little anxious.

Could it be that this empty carriage and a few straw men can withstand the attacks of the robbers?

"That's good, but I warn you that the Templars never use any indiscriminate means, even if the enemy is the notorious Shadow Eagle Bandit!"

Lao Tzu is not a bullshit knight!

Hu Tian snorted coldly in his heart, and his gaze swept towards the dark and deep canyon.

At this moment, a few slight air crackling sounds suddenly exploded in my ears.

"Whoosh!"

Dozens of long arrows rained down from the sky, turning a hedgehog in the middle of the empty road.

A terrible wolf howl pierced the sky, and a dozen black shadows on the slope of the canyon rushed down with loud shouts waving long knives, spears, and mallets in their hands.

Underneath them, a wild wolf with a cyan mane of more than two meters opened its bloody mouth, and its outturned fangs could almost bite off half of a person.

"Oh no, it's the Shadow Eagle Cavalry robbers!"

Hall Slick suddenly lifted the hem of his fat cloak, and flicked a long multi-segmented whip with a triangular pike dart in his hand, flicking it back to fend off the attack of the long arrow.

Hu Tian slashed the flying long arrow with a sword, drilled behind the ledge next to him one step ahead of him, set up a crossbow, and aimed at the direction of the carriage.

The robbers riding Wolfs' wolves wore leather armor and masks, and no one knew what they really looked like. The long knife in his hand was as cold as ice, and he shouted and surrounded the carriage in the middle.

"W-ha!"

The robbers slapped the wolf's buttocks with the back of their knives and kept circling on the ground, the tips of their knives cutting furrows through the ground, as if to warn and challenge those who were hiding in the shadows.

"Brothers, stay when you see the goods, and do it when you see people! Dare to snatch the goods in the hands of the Shadow Eagle, this is a provocation to our Shadow Eagle Knight! Pit Viper Canyon never leaves a mouth alive! ”

"Grab that old man, a box of tobacco leaves, ten gold coins, and a maid of Noah!"

Hearing the call of the gold coin and the woman, the twelve robbers with long knives and mallets in their hands rushed up like fire in their eyes.

"Rush!!"

I don't know who suddenly shouted, and the twelve violent wolves suddenly roared and swept past the place where the carriage was.

The spear pierced the canopy of the carriage, and the aroma of pine cone wine irritated the nerves of these robbers even more.

This formation was enough to tear apart any obstacle that stood in their way.

Not to mention a frontal fight, even a sneak attack may be difficult to succeed.

"There are too many of them, we can't resist if this continues!" Hall Slick reminded in a low voice.

Looking back, there was no trace of Hu Tian, and he couldn't help but sneer disdainfully.

"Hmph, when did the Templars become so timid."

At this moment, behind a dense bush in front of him, a long arrow with a flaming light suddenly shot out, and with a "bang" sound, it hit the roof of the carriage canopy.

"Boom ......"

Huge flames burst out, lighting up half of the sky.

"When did this man go hiding? How like a ghost! ”

Hall Slick looked at the bushes in surprise, a cold-blooded face flashed under the reflection of the firelight, and the sturdy figure quickly rolled over and jumped onto the ledge, disappearing again into the darkness.

"Hu Tian ......"

Hall Slick muttered the name, and the cloak and hat on his head inadvertently slipped down, revealing a delicate and fair face, and dark blue eyes subconsciously followed his figure.

The blazing light of the fire carved a trace of astonishment into each of the robbers' faces, and then the burning carriage suddenly exploded.

Flying flames ignited the nearest two people. The wild wolf under the crotch was frightened, and rushed out five or six meters, directly flying the person on his back.

"Ah...... Save...... Help me! ”
