Chapter 254: The Scepter of the Earth - The Road to the Imperial Capital Has Not Been Smooth (2)

Sorry it's late again.,This chapter should be yesterday's hehe.,Today's will be the night again-

At the beginning of the month, I asked for a recommendation.

On the northern trade route of Katias, three carriages were moving rapidly towards the north, huge wheels crushing the ground and raising dust. The biquge.info speed of these carriages is so fast, almost constantly pumping the horses to consume the horses' bodies.

The driver of the carriage tried to control the progress of the horse, and carefully observed the state of the horse so that he could replace the horse pulling the cart when the horse was tired. As for the owners of these carriages, it was naturally Chen Kai and his party, but at this moment, Chen Kai's face did not have the beginning of calmness, but there was a panicked expression. Of course, it can't be called panic, and it should be described as nervous.

In fact, after seeing the dead bodies lying in the grass in a mess, even if Chen Kai's spirit was strong, he would have a fear from the bottom of his heart. The number of corpses is not much, only a few hundred, I don't know how much less than the corpses Chen Kai saw on the battlefield, but if these dead corpses are people that Chen Kai saw not long ago, then it is enough to make Chen Kai feel a palpitation.

Those were all like Chen Kai and the others who left Cartier in a carriage, and they also overtook Chen Kai's carriage on the way. These traveling merchants formed a caravan and drove quickly past Chen Kai and them, bringing up a large amount of smoke and dust, which made Chen Kai and the others who were sitting in the carriage cough, but now they were all lying in the grass in the field. The whole body was stripped clean like a baby, and at the same time, these corpses were missing arms and legs, and many of them even lost their heads.

Of course, these were not enough to make Chen Kai nervous, there was only one thing that made him nervous, he saw a businessman passing by them not long ago, that is, an hour ago. Although the other party drove in the carriage and let Chen Kai not look very carefully, his peculiar hairstyle impressed Chen Kai deeply. The hair like a male ** crown stands straight on the other party's head, which looks so strange. But when Chen Kai saw him in the pile of corpses, the merchant was left with only his head, and his body no longer knew that he had been thrown there.

The moment Chen Kai saw the merchant, he knew that this trade route was no longer safe, and it could be said to be very dangerous. It can rob a caravan in an hour, and kill all of them, and at the same time wash the road very clean, which doesn't look like an ordinary horse thief. Even if the number of people in that caravan was less than 10 people and there were only two carriages, you must know that there were two magic masters sitting on the carriage, and they were both adventurers above the 8th order.

Now, the two mages who had been sitting in the carriage to greet Chen Kai and them were also dead in the wilderness, and they were still dead, and there was not even a fig leaf left. There is hardly a piece of good meat on the whole body, except for the head, which is intact.

So after seeing those two mages, Chen Kai didn't even think about it, and directly pulled Fei Yun, who wanted to make some dead money, and fled, and when he returned to the side of the carriage, he instantly set up the repaired carriage and drove everyone else into the carriage and fled quickly. Along the way, he kept urging the others, so that they didn't have to tolerate the body of the war horse, as long as the war horse was short of breath, they would change horses. From Katias to Zeduo Yedi, this nearly thirty-kilometer journey, Chen Kai and the others only took less than two hours, but they changed their horses six times.

"The boss should be safe now, right?" Fei Yun climbed down from the roof of the carriage with a pale face and asked Chen Kai, he had been squatting on the roof of the carriage all the way, his eyes kept looking at the surrounding environment, and he was almost thrown out by the speeding carriage several times. If he hadn't pulled the guardrail on the side of the carriage, it is estimated that Fei Yun would have fallen and could only lie in the carriage by now.

"I don't know, but I always feel that someone is following us" Chen Kai's eyes looked around vigilantly, although he was a little tired from driving for a long time like Su Xinghe at the moment, but he still tried his best to keep himself vigilant.

In fact, Chen Kai's vigilance was not unfounded, and nearly five kilometers away from them, a large group of horse thieves were panting and urging the war horses to rush over. Originally, they had the idea of an ambush, wanting to wait for Chen Kai and them to stop the carriage and rest before rushing out. But after they gave up the time when the carriage broke down, they found that they couldn't find a chance to ambush, and Chen Kai and the others were mad and urged the horses to gallop almost without stopping.

When these horse thieves were about to catch up, Chen Kai and the others had already rushed out of the carriage for no less than five miles, and at the same time, they kept changing horses along the way, so that the distance was getting farther and farther, and now it has opened nearly ten miles, that is, five kilometers. You must know that war horses are not cars after all, they will be tired and die, generally speaking, ordinary war horses can run about ten kilometers in a row if they run at low speed, and at most five kilometers if they run at high speed. Although the war horses of those horse thieves are excellent, they are not as valuable as Chen Kai, even if they don't use these Andean war horses, there are nearly ten other types of high-grade war horses Chen Kai alone, all of which were captured from the battle of Ankaharun.

Therefore, even if they kept changing horses all the way, Chen Kai and they were still able to maintain high speed and lead, and they didn't know where to go after those horse thieves. At the same time, this is also the reason why Fei Yun almost didn't find the danger along the way, those horse thieves didn't know where they were thrown to, how could they see people.

"Be careful, God know if those guys are coming for us?" Su Xinghe was lying on the chair of the carriage and panting, his state at the moment was not much better than that of the horses pulling the cart.

"I don't think your sentence can be basically removed, it seems that the enemies we have encountered so far are all aimed at us, no, they are aimed at Brother Shui, God knows what we are responsible for transporting, I have not found even a trace of clues about the Earth Scepter until now, even if there is no record of this thing in the Earth Temple" After Zhao Tiezhu finished speaking, he poured a mouthful of water into his mouth, and the cold water quickly dispelled the heat in his chest and calmed his mood.

"yes, sir, what the hell is that earth scepter? How could such a big battle come out" Fei Yun also felt very strange, his question was actually a common problem in everyone's minds, of course, except for the three newcomers, they looked confused and didn't know what else was said. However, they were looking forward to seeing the appearance of the Great Earth Scepter, after all, according to others, the reason for the Qiē was because Chen Kai was in charge of transporting something.

But apparently none of these expectations had any effect, and in fact, Chen Kai couldn't figure out what the Earth Scepter was. While most of his robbers knew what it was, none of them told him what the Great Earth Scepter could be used for. Therefore, Chen Kai himself was also very confused, he accepted a hot potato, but until now he didn't know whether this potato was konjac or sweet potato.

Therefore, he could only shake his head helplessly and did not give any answers to other people's questions. Just as Chen Kai was about to sit down and take a break, he suddenly saw several short figures in his field of vision, and then dozens of such figures instantly rushed out of the grass. At this moment, Chen Kai remembered that the most dangerous thing in the Zeduo wilderness was not those robbers and horse thieves, but the terrifying goblins that were everywhere and in large numbers.

These swamp monsters of the third rank or so have an extremely strange way of living after arriving in the Sawa Wilderness, their heads are covered with green blades of grass, and their green skin is almost invisible in the wilderness. At the same time, the sheer number of them makes everyone who encounters them frightened, and even if the regular army encounters them, they can only retreat.

No one knows exactly how many goblins there are in the Zedo wilds, just as no one knows how many grasses there are in the Zedo fields. Therefore, in the wilderness of Tongguò Zedo, all merchants, even large legions, will be extremely careful not to make a loud noise, so as not to alarm the goblins hiding in the grass, that is, the swamp monsters. No, it's supposed to be called a Grass Monster now, because there are no swamps in the Sawa Wilds, only large meadows.

Chen Kai didn't pay attention to the shaking of the surrounding grass when they stopped the carriage, because the shaking of the grass in the windy situation is a normal thing. It wasn't until the goblins burst out of the grass and rushed towards their carriage that the group suddenly remembered the terrifying goblin sea in the Zedo Wilds.

Hundreds of goblins swooped down on the carriage from almost all over the place at the same time, and the sheer number almost scared a few girls out of the carriage. But then they fell silent again, and instantly drew their weapons and prepared for battle, for they could see the identity of the incoming enemy. For them, goblins are now high-level targets, except for being a little dangerous when they are close to them, and they are moving experience bags at other times. Although every experience is pitiful, no matter how small the mosquito leg is, it is still a piece of meat

Therefore, those goblins were hit head-on by a large number of spells the moment they rushed out, and a few girls were not likely to feel sorry for Chen Kai's scroll, in their opinion, the scroll was used for use. Although this action is a bit of a loser, the effect is very good, at least the moment those goblins burst out of the grass, they were directly knocked down a dozen of them. However, instead of being happy after seeing the fallen goblin, Chen Kai became extremely depressed, because the goblin is a very grudge-holding monster, and this group of goblins is obviously not the entire race, but just a small army. That is, soon, more goblins will come out of the grass, and these goblins will treat Chen Kai and them as enemies of life and death.

But then again, even if Chen Kai and the others didn't kill some goblins, for these goblins who were named monsters, the moment they saw Chen Kai again, they would already regard them as enemies of life and death. Because in their eyes, tall war horses are the best food, and sturdy humans are the most delicious food.

So after seeing those girls instantly knock down more than a dozen goblins with scrolls, Chen Kai immediately whistled at Su Xinghe and Zhao Tiezhu, asking them to pull up the carriage and prepare to run away. It's just that this greeting was a little late, and at the moment when Chen Kai and the others urged the carriage, hundreds of goblins had already appeared in the grass, and they were chirping and screaming and rushing towards the carriage.

"Oh shit, how can there be so many goblins" Hulans's hand holding the weapon almost began to tremble, the first time he saw more than two hundred goblins, the countless green monsters flying out of the grass were simply terrifying.

"Don't scream to Lao Tzu to be quiet, it's better to use a crossbow machine to shoot arrows for Lao Tzu if you have time to roar like a girl" Zhao Tiezhu yelled at Hu Lansi, and then quickly drew his horsewhip and shook it, the carriage started at a very fast speed, and quickly prepared to escape from the goblin along the road.

It's just that Chen Kai's carriage can't catch up with the speed of those goblins, and at the moment when the leading Chen Kai's carriage just started, several goblins have already rushed to the side of the war horse, quickly pounced on the war horse, and bit its neck. After a terrible neigh, the carriage driven by Chen Kai made a huge impact, and then the reins used to hold the war horse were cut off by Chen Kai. The wounded horse rushed out with the goblins on its back, but was immediately drowned in countless goblins.

"Boss~ Are you okay" Fei Yun, who was standing on the roof of the carriage, asked Chen Kai with a blue face, he knew why Chen Kai did that, because the frightened war horses might drag their carriage directly into the goblin pile, and at that time, even if they wanted to cut the reins, it would be too late.

"It's okay, you keep shooting" Chen Kai quickly pulled out his weapon, at this time, the Giant Sword Glow Blade was far less useful than the Ripping Fang, the former's size was too large, and there was a lot of room for the dwarf goblin to dodge. Of course, if the number of goblins is dense enough to a certain extent, then the huge glow blade is an excellent weapon to open the way, and at that time, even a sweep can kill a lot of monsters.

The torn tooth in Chen Kai's hand quickly slashed into the neck of a goblin, instantly chopping off the opponent's green disgusting little head, and at the same time, the shield in his left hand slapped and directly knocked out the three or four goblins that pounced on him. In fact, Chen Kai has a better way to kill these green-skinned monsters whose level is no more than level 30, even if he uses Dou Qi Slash, he can kill at least three of them in an instant, but in order not to waste Dou Qi, Chen Kai still uses the most ordinary melee attack to deal with these guys. At least the same slash is faster than using Dou Qi, and of course the cost is lower.

However, in the face of a huge number of goblin groups, no matter how much Chen Kai saved his body, he would run out, and at the same time, there was no storage in the goblin group that could harm them. At least Chen Kai knew that there were no less than three types of goblins that could kill all of them unscathed, and at least five types of goblins could fight against Chen Kai without falling behind, and the most important thing was that even in the low-level goblins, if they pounced on Chen Kai together, Chen Kai would be defeated in a short period of time and then torn apart.

Therefore, Chen Kai was very careful, his body barely left the carriage of the carriage, and at the same time, he did not leave Fei Yun, who was trying to wind the heavy crossbow. Chen Kai knew what Fei Yun wanted to do, he wanted to use the zero-hour crossbow string to launch a crossbow arrow box, as long as he used a crossbow arrow box, he could greatly alleviate the dilemma that Chen Kai and the others encountered, and open up a way for them to escape.

But this process is very troublesome, the crossbow string purchased at zero hour is not very good for firing crossbow arrow magazines, Fei Yun needs time to adjust, and time is what they lack the most. You must know that there are at least fifty goblins around Chen Kai now, and they are staring at Chen Kai, who has killed his own kind, and Fei Yun behind Chen Kai. Almost every moment and every second, a goblin tried to jump up from the ground, pounced on Chen Kai and dragged him down to kill him, but they all turned into puddles of broken corpses on the ground, adding 1 point and 2 points of experience to Chen Kai's experience slot.

As for Zhao Tiezhu and Xu Fei, now and running far away with the carriage, it is not that they want to leave Chen Kai and the three of them to escape alone, but that Chen Kai asks them to do so. Of course, when they ran away, they also took a large number of goblins, which reduced the pressure on Chen Kai, Fei Yun and Fei Yuan.

"Water... Brother Shui, will we hang here? Fei Yuan swallowed as he looked at the dense goblins around him, he grabbed the shield in one hand and a spell scroll in the other. As he spoke, the scroll in his hand instantly unfolded, unleashing a fireball spell on the goblins below. The fist-sized fireball quickly coalesced from the scroll and hit a goblin's head, and the open mouth was instantly blown to pieces, and it hung up in an instant without even having to deduct blood.

"Don't think too much about protecting Fei Yun, my luck has always been good, rest assured" Chen Kai smiled very confidently, and then turned around and slashed out a milky white fighting qi slash behind his back. This was the first time he had used Dou Qi to attack in a few minutes, and he had also used Dou Qi Slash to attack from a distance. Because he saw a big goblin trying to rush up from the other side of the carriage, and of course that goblin was now a tattered corpse flying upside down. The huge vindictive slash directly split its not-so-big head, and the fierce-looking big brother Blin didn't even leave a word and went directly to the Hades. Of course, Goblin can only roar, and it is impossible to speak.

"It seems that there is a big guy coming out, Fei Yuan, the fourth child be careful" Chen Kai was not very happy after killing a big brother with his fighting spirit, but became more careful, he inserted the tearing tooth in his hand into the scabbard on his waist, and then pulled out the giant sword on his back, and the huge blade quickly swept away, and instantly forced several goblins who came over to take several steps back, and collided with the goblins rushing up from behind.

"Fourth~ Are you ready, launch when you're ready, we need to hurry, otherwise we don't want to go out again" Chen Kai saw a silver-white figure in the goblin group at the moment of swinging the giant sword, and he knew that it was at least an elite-level silver goblin, and the level might exceed level 50.

"Immediately prepare the war horse, I will put on the reins after I finish driving, it is up to you whether the brothers can escape this time" Fei Yun pulled the heavy crossbow and pointed the crossbow machine towards those goblins, and then said to Fei Yuan, who nodded quickly and took out two pet badges from his body.

With the crisp sound of crossbow strings, nearly two hundred crossbow arrows were shot out of the huge crossbow box in an instant. Almost instantly, the goblins in front of Chen Kai and them were cleaned, and all the goblins had at least five crossbow arrows stuck in their bodies.

At the same time, Fei Yuan quickly pressed the pet badge towards the reins, and two high-level war horses instantly appeared there and were reined. Then Fei Yuan grabbed the reins and shook them hard, and he didn't even use the whip to directly urge the horses to let them run. At the moment when the war horse was running, Chen Kai saw a huge goblin sprang out of the goblin corpse pile on the ground, its body was twice as tall as the other goblins, and its body exuded a silvery-white luster. At the moment of escaping out of the pile of corpses, this goblin pounced directly towards the two war horses, trying to kill the war horses and leave Chen Kai and them behind.

Will Chen Kai let that goblin succeed? Obviously not, the moment the other party jumped out, he raised his fingers and chanted the magic spell. A milky white ball of light quickly converged at his fingertips, and swooped out towards the goblin.
