The afterglow of the sun shrouded the land, and the orange-red halo stretched out all the shadows on the wasteland. The wide road resembles a dry ancient riverbed, sandwiched between a towering ridge.

Hu Tian chewed the tender core of the palm leaf and strode down the road.

Behind him, Xu Noyi's petite body was wrapped in silver-white armor, and she carried a giant sword almost bigger than her, swaying one step at a time.

"Hmph, why are you walking so fast, do you have long legs?"

Xu Nuoyi was huffing and rolled his eyes at Hu Tian's back.

Next to her, the elf Fifi had a huge knight's helmet on her little head, swaying from side to side and barely seeing the road, which looked particularly funny.

After walking for a whole day, the elf Fei Fei muttered a lot of words along the way, but unfortunately Hu Tian didn't understand a word.

The Gwill elves have their own language system, and until they learn their "dialect", it is estimated that they will not be able to learn the magic of using crystal nuclei to heal wounds.

Hu Tian sighed, slightly disappointed, and accelerated his pace of progress.

At this time-

"Hey...... Oba! Wait a minute, I'll ......."

Xu Nuoyi supported his body with a giant sword, and shouted at Hu Tian weakly, seeing that the other party had no intention of stopping at all, he simply sat on the ground.

"How long will it take, I'm dying of thirst, you sadist!"

Hu Tian stopped, glanced back at her, broke the tender palm core in his hand into two pieces, and divided her in half.

"According to the map markings, this is the last beast habitat, and we will have to walk through the canyon before the sun sets, and after half a day's walk, we will reach the nearest village."

After a pause, Hu Tian put away the tanned skin map in his hand, glanced at the sky that was gradually darkening, and felt that something was not quite right.

"yes, is there a village? We're finally going out! Xu Noyi wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, jumped up excitedly, and almost threw the greatsword out.

Great goals are just around the corner, and you can finally live in a cave without having to live like a wild man! Xu Noyi was in a good mood, and she and the elf Fei Fei looked at each other and smiled, she broke the tender core of the palm into two smaller pieces, and the two of them ate it separately, as if they had taken advantage of it, although the juice oozing from the tender core was not much, but it was enough to moisten the throat that was cracked and cracked.

While eating, he dragged the huge knight's broadsword forward with brisk steps. She didn't go far before she found that Hu Tian hadn't followed, but stood in place staring at the rolling red hillsides around her, stunned, with a dead face as if she was constipated.

"Hey, Oba! Why don't you leave? Xu Nuoyi tilted his head and looked at him strangely, "Now, little classmate, you can't give up halfway." Do you want to stay here and wait for the wind to eat and be eaten by wild beasts, or do you plan to stay in a cozy cabin tonight, eating hot pot and singing? Whatever you choose, I'm going to find an Azuma (aunt), preferably the kind that makes kimchi and rice cakes...... Isn't it, Feifei? ”

"Eun!"

The two of them winked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

But at this time-

A panicked sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from far and near, and at the same time several shouts came-

"Your Excellency...... Noble horseman, knight ...... Wait for us! ”

"Listen, Oba...... Someone! ”

Xu Nuoyi also heard the voice, and quickly got up from the ground, excitedly carrying the giant sword and looking in the direction of the sound.

A convoy of three carriages drove towards this side.

The tall horses in leather armor were exhausted, and except for the lead carriage, which had a canopy for people, the other two carriages were pulling goods.

The black tarpaulin covering the cargo shattered in half, and several broken bows and arrows were shot into the wheels, shaking slightly as the carriage jolted.

Before the convoy could stop, two people jumped out of the leading carriage.

A stout young man and a lean old man with a goatee, both of whom were wearing fat coarse cloth leggings, had gray faces, and their clothes had been cut several times. This dress is completely different from the previous White Iron Knight, but it has a bit of Arab blood.

The young man wore a white turban with blood stains on his head, apparently wounded.

"Honorable horseman and knight, help!"

The old man with the goatee ran towards Xu Noyi as if he had seen a savior, "Help, my lord!" ”

"Be careful, don't talk yet, listen to me!"

Hu Tian pulled out the bronze sword from his waist, quickly whispered a few words of warning to Xu Nuoyi, turned around and blocked in front of them, staring vigilantly at the two people who came running.

"Stop! Who are you? ”

"My name is Barry, and I am a merchant from the village of Hatura, and we are about to deliver a shipment to Feynman City, located in Mohatbi, the northwestern province of the Great Empire. But, but ......"

The goatee's dry eyes were full of anxiety and fear, and he paused, swallowed and continued.

"But...... But halfway through, we ran into the Shadow Hawks, and they snatched our goods! Pity my fine tobacco leaves, two carts of goods can be sold for fifty gold coins...... They—they want to kill me, but it's good that Atul and I are fast, otherwise I wouldn't have seen you, Lord Knight......"

Speaking of this, the old man patted his thigh in annoyance, and the old man looked very sad with tears.

"Your Excellency, you must save us, help us avenge us, and kill all the Shadow Eagle bandits!"

Shadow Hawk? Robbery?

Could it be a robber?

The other party obviously saw Xu Nuoyi's dress and regarded her as a knight, so he came to ask for help. In this way, the status of the knight should not be low.

Hu Tian frowned, quickly calculated in his mind, and glanced at the young man next to him, who had not spoken, but stared at Xu Nuoyi with strange eyes.

I don't know if the other party is a wolf or a sheep, and Hu Tian doesn't want to make extraneous branches.

"Who is Shadow Hawk? How many people are there? Where are they? And also...... Why should we help you? ”

"Venerable Knight, haven't you heard of the infamous Shadow Eagle Bandits?"

When the old man heard that Hu Tian would ask this question, he looked at him strangely, as if he was looking at a monster.

This is something that everyone in Mohate knows!

"Oh? Are you questioning the Knight? ”

Hu Tian's face turned cold, and he said lightly, and quietly glanced at Xu Nuoyi.

"Ahem......"

Xu Nuoyi instructed, hurriedly coughed, grabbed the hilt of the sword inserted in the ground and pulled it out, the sharp blade was shining with cold light, and the old man couldn't open his eyes.

"Great, big and angry!" The old man trembled with fright, and immediately apologized, "The Shadow Eagle is in the Pit Viper Canyon ten miles ahead, and there are more than a dozen people in total. In the past, when each runner team passed by, as long as they paid the full amount of money every month, they could pass safely. But...... I don't know why, since last month, Shadow Eagle has suddenly gone crazy, not only robbing passing merchants, but also killing people! ”

"We ...... We...... We are really desperate, please save us, help kill them, and help us run the caravan to take revenge! ”

Old man Barry was heartbroken when he talked about it, and he wanted to bite the robbers to death.

He wiped his tears, took out a small cloth bag from his coat, and respectfully handed it to Xu Noyi.

"Lord Knight, as long as you help us kill the hateful Shadow Eagle Bandits, I am willing to give fifty gold coins and this cart of tobacco leaves!"

"Oba ......"

Xu Nuoyi didn't dare to take it, and quietly pulled Hu Tian's arm, and the sad look of the old man in front of him began to feel sad inexplicably.

It's just that when she met Orbis in the morning, she didn't dare to speak because she was too impulsive and almost broke something.

At this time, the old man looked pitiful, and took out gold coins as a reward, and she really couldn't think of any reason to refuse.

Hehe, fifty gold coins and a cart of tobacco leaves, you want to exchange yourself for their lives?

Hu Tian had a sneer in his heart.

"No way!"

Hu Tian didn't hesitate, directly refused, turned back to Xu Nuoyi and said, "Let's go!" ”

After speaking, he pulled her and Fei Fei to turn around and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute! Knight-sama! ”

The old man Barry and the young man named Atul were all stunned on the spot, and the two looked at each other and hurriedly summoned.

"I'm sorry, we still have to travel, so we won't be far away!" Hu Tian directly issued an eviction order.

"A hundred gold coins, and tobacco leaves! One hundred gold coins! Adult ......"

Old man Barry endured the pain, took out another bag of gold coins, and obediently offered it.

Hu Tian slanted his eyes, "The great Mohatbi knight will not accept the taint of money!" Who do you think of us? ”

"Oba ......"

Xu Nuoyi glanced at Hu Tian strangely, is he going to change his mind?

The next second, her head buzzed, and her jaw almost fell to the ground.

I saw Hu Tian stretch out a finger and shake it calmly in front of the old man and the young man, "One thousand gold coins, in addition, I will requisition your carriage." ”
