Chapter 230: The White Butcher (Medium)

For Hannibal, being commissioned to come to Hugodi this time was as easy as camping in the wild, because he wouldn't be foolish enough to attack an overly powerful drow elf force. But even if it's not a powerful Drow Balladeer, the equipment left over after being killed is still a very good thing for the average player.

For example, the scimitars used by drow warriors, even the worst quality scimitars, i.e. those with no magic attached to the whiteboard, are sharper and stronger than the weapons most players hold at this stage. As a result, the players who followed Hannibal's ass were more than happy to spend money on the equipment, and Hannibal, the deputy head of the Central Knights, was happy to dispose of these things that were of little value to him.

With the exception of a few loot that he fancied, most of it was sold by him for a very good price for the players who followed his ass. This very reasonable price means that in the eyes of Hannibal, he did not lose money, and in the eyes of the players, he made a little money.

But there are some risks associated with doing business with this boss, as he only collects gold and will make players start paying while they are still picking items. He won't tell you the price of everything, you either choose to buy it or get out. The most important thing is that if you have just purchased the goods, and after paying the money, you find that the knight in front of you quickly rides the war horse and runs away, then you need to be careful. Because maybe in the next moment, hundreds of drow elf hexapods will rush towards your position, and if you don't have time to escape, the end will be very tragic.

Don't think that such a thing is impossible, because the money-hungry Hannibal will never fight the drow troops for the sake of the player. In fact, even if the number of drow elves chasing after him is only a few hundred, he will simply leave the player behind and turn around and run away. After the players have been killed, he will turn around and return to kill the drow again, and then sell the drow drops to the next group of players, along with the dead drow loot.

Hannibal had been in Hugodi for less than a week, and the players who had followed him behind the ass to buy loot had been following him for less than three days. However, in the past three days, the number of players killed by the Drow elves because they did not escape in time exceeded 1,000. Several times the players who followed him stood next to the corpses of their own kind and traded with Hannibal. It's definitely a pretty crazy and terrifying trading process for players.

But people die for money, and birds die for food. Players who bought loot from Hannibal and resold it could make at least 15 to 25 percent of the difference. This is already a lot of profit for many players, which is why even if you know that following Hannibal's ass will be dangerous, he may even be used as a shield to throw to the drow elves. But driven by profits, players still ran over.

If nothing else, perhaps Hannibal will take his Central Order to live very comfortably in Hugodi, and may even strangle most of the drow elves. But how can the so-called standing by the river not get your shoes wet, even Hannibal, a strong man, sometimes capsized in the gutter. And this flip also folded nearly 2,000 players who followed behind his ass into it.

For Chen Kai, he didn't pay much attention to what happened to Hugodi, because he had not been paid protection money by Hannibal so far. Of course, it could also be that he had already paid this so-called protection fee, or that the Central Knights led by Hannibal had not yet run the entire Hugodi to collect the money.

However, Chen Kai's lack of attention does not mean that he will not get news related to Hannibal and others, as the most powerful knight order led by Hugodi, even if the Central Knights led by Hannibal only have 500 people, it will be the object of everyone's attention. It's just that the player can at most get the information of Hannibal and the others after the battle, and it is difficult to get the information about where they will appear to sweep the drow elves that day. Because most of the Drow Elves operate at night, and the Hugodi Wilds at night are very dangerous for players, players may still dare to wander outside before the Drow Elves appear in large numbers, but now they choose to return to the city every evening.

As a result, the leveling speed of players in the entire Hugodi Territory is very slow. Because they spend a lot less time out leveling than players elsewhere, and they don't dare to go too far from the city because the night is too dangerous. So some players who want to level up do everything possible to follow the ass of Hannibal's Central Knights. Their idea was very simple: to use the fighting power of these extremely powerful knights of the Central Order to survive the extremely dangerous night of the Hugodi wilderness. With this in mind, when Hannibal's Central Knights were stationed in the town of Monto, located northwest of Chen Kai's territory, during the day, more than 2,000 players quietly followed these knights when they were marching.

Hannibal didn't pay much attention to the players who followed his ass, he treated them as if they were players who were following his ass and were about to buy loot. Only this time there were a little more players following, and there was a group of players following them, which made Hannibal follow two or three waves of players. If it was when the drow elves had not appeared on a large scale, let alone two or three waves of players following, even if there were more players, it would be nothing, but now the wilderness of Hugodi's night does not belong to humans, when nearly three thousand players followed Hannibal in the same direction. Hannibal, who had been at the front, was not detected by the drow scouts, because they knew how to hide their whereabouts, but the players behind them revealed their tracks.

The so-called not afraid of god-like opponents, but afraid of pig-like teammates, for Hannibal, the players who follow behind the ass are definitely not even teammates. If there were such members of the Central Order, it is estimated that the number would have been canceled in the fierce battle. In fact, Hannibal's Central Knights were not discovered by the Drow Elves, but the players who followed his ass revealed their approximate location, and the result of this exposure was that a siege network against Hannibal's Central Knights slowly formed at midnight.

For Hannibal, this night exuded a bloody atmosphere that made him feel comfortable inside, he had just killed a team of nearly 100 drow elves, and he was stained with black-red blood, but for these blood stains, Hannibal not only did not feel disgusted, on the contrary, he was very happy, which is probably the biggest difference between him and ordinary people as a white butcher. Already enjoying killing, he has a very strong hunger and thirst for killing his enemies. This hunger and thirst made him constantly stronger at the same time. It also gradually made him distorted. People who can't control their spiritual desires can't reach the pinnacle of power after all. Perhaps it was precisely because he could not control his desire to kill that Hannibal could only linger at the door of the Titled Sanctuary and could not step in.

The players who were also following Hannibal also quickly rushed up and began to help the knights of the Central Knights clean up the battlefield, and all the gold coins were collected and handed over to Hannibal's lieutenant at the first time, and then the weapons were sorted and placed. In the light of the torches, everything was pulled down in a short time. Then stacked in a fixed place, the treasurer of the Order would collect the high-grade loot in a short time and put it into the huge space equipment he carried.

After the treasurer has picked the item, the players will be able to pay for it at the price Hannibal has offered. But at this moment, Hannibal suddenly felt that something was wrong, and the flickering light of the fire made his perception a little strange. At the same time, he felt that the value of the things on the ground was a little wrong. Hannibal? Born into a merchant family, Alzingus was born with a sickly obsession with gold, which at some point suppressed his thirst for blood. If Hannibal's morbid desire to kill was acquired, then his lust for gold coins was an innate feeling imprinted in his bones.

This natural feeling gave Hannibal a terrible instinct about the value of an item, he could know the approximate value of an item with a glance, and this talent was also very useful for managing finances. Because Hannibal's memory is very good, he can clearly remember the numbers and contents in and out of the accounts, and it is precisely because of his terrifying merchant talent and dedication to gold coins that he basically has no financial officer who feels corrupt after serving as the deputy head of the Central Knights, and once he is caught, no one can stand it.

So when Hannibal's eyes swept over the things that had been sorted out, he felt that the value of the items carried by the drow elves who had been killed was very wrong. In normal times, he would definitely feel that it didn't matter if these things were of low value. It wasn't anything powerful that he had killed, anyway, but now, when he sensed danger in his mind, he felt a loud bang in his mind when he looked at the weapons and equipment on the ground that had obviously shrunk in value, as well as the tables of those drow elves and six-legged battle lizards.

"Damn! Everybody gets on the horse. We are in ambush!! Hannibal, who climbed onto his horse in an instant, roared loudly at his men, and it was the first time that the surrounding players who were about to pay for equipment heard Hannibal raise such an alarm. In many previous trades, even if Hannibal spotted an enemy, he would not alert the player, instead using the player who bought the item as a shield. But this time, Hannibal suddenly shouted loudly, and when he heard his shout, the knights who had been sitting on the ground and resting climbed on the horses twice as fast as before, and the fat treasurer didn't even want to separate the player's body with his hands apart, and rushed to the horse with Hannibal in a frenzied escape.

The knights of the entire Central Order knew that there were five things they had to keep in mind in the Order, the first of which was not to drink in front of the commander, if you did, you would be whipped. The second thing is that you can't take out the gold coin in front of the deputy head of the white butcher, because the next moment the gold coin may not be yours, and the third thing is that you can't go to the toilet with the black butcher Gillam or you will die of inferiority. The fourth thing is that you must not charge with the deputy head of the Black Butcher, Girlam, you will die a miserable death. As for the fifth thing, that is, when the White Butcher screams and is in ambush, you must not hesitate to run away immediately with the deputy commander, and throw away everything you can, because when the White Butcher shouts like this, the danger is usually only one step away from you. Unless you don't even want your own life anymore, in which case you can stay where you are and die.

Hearing Hannibal's voice, the players froze for a full dozen seconds before they began to mount their horses and prepare to escape. However, when they saw the loot on the ground, some of them hesitated for a moment and then dismounted to pick up the things on the ground. When one person starts picking up things, the others naturally dismount and start picking things up. In this way, they lost the best opportunity to flee for their lives, and in this delay of a minute or two. Hannibal had already fled nearly a kilometer with the knights of the Central Order. However, they were still a long way from escaping the Drow Elves' encirclement. Of course, players who are further behind Hannibal and others are even more unlucky. They don't even know they're in danger.

Players who knew the danger but were still grabbing the loot on the ground were ready to ride away after finally distributing the loot, but unfortunately they had just climbed onto the horses and had not yet sat down and could no longer swing their whips. Scarlet blood stains slowly appeared on these people's necks, and their heads fell from the top of their necks as the blood stains gradually expanded.

The Drow Elven Shadow Slayer, who had never clashed with Hannibal's Central Knights, reappeared in front of the player, but the cost of their appearance was the instant death of nearly a hundred players. And they didn't even see what the people who killed them looked like.

The dead players had no way to raise an alarm to the players behind them, and when Hannibal beat the drow elves to the ground, many players forgot that the wilderness of Hugodi's night was no longer human. They don't have home field advantage in this territory, and they can even be said to be at a disadvantage. It was the only thing that came to mind when the nearly two thousand or so players who followed behind were surrounded by the thousands of Blackhorned Minotaurs and Drow Elves that appeared in front of them.

As for why they didn't see Hannibal's Central Knights, the reason is simple: Hannibal, who fled frantically with his own men, is unable to protect himself at the moment. The pockets laid by the drow elves were not to catch the stupid players who were following Hannibal, their biggest target was Hannibal's more than 500 knights of the Central Order. For the Drow Elves, they don't need to wipe out Hannibal and the others, as long as they kill Hannibal and eighty percent of the knights, then this knight order from the imperial capital will no longer pose any threat to these Drows.

However, Hannibal's sense of danger was greater than these drows could have imagined, and he was about to break out of the encirclement with his troops before it was fully formed. Once Hannibal and the knights were allowed to escape, it would be impossible to block the knights in the wilderness of Hugodi again.

As a result, the slow-moving encirclement had to be divided, with the powerful Drow cavalry and the Blackhorned Minotaurs running after Hannibal's Knights, while the rest ran to eliminate the players who were left behind. The former dealt with perverts like Hannibal. The latter deals with small fish and shrimp. But even if it was a force dealing with small fish and shrimp, when thousands of black-horned minotaurs and Drow appeared in front of him. These players, who originally wanted to take advantage, were instantly dumbfounded. The players who led the team were instantly Spartan, but their sluggish expressions didn't last long, as the red-eyed Blackhorned Minotaurs and Drow quickly brandished their weapons and slashed, and an almost one-sided battle broke out before the players were fully prepared.

The raid and the complete disparity of strength made the players in a state of torture, and the shield guardian player who stood in the way of the front was trampled into a pulp by the blackhorned minotaur with the hooves of the black-horned minotaur in the blink of an eye. The caster player didn't even raise their staff, and their bodies were pierced by the drow elven hunter's shortbow. The short bows of these new classes are extremely fast, and although the shooting distance is very short, only a dozen meters, no player can escape their shooting at this distance. Because they specialize in pinching soft persimmons, that is, they are looking for cloth professional players to start.

The darkness of the night makes it easy for drow archers with dark vision to shoot at casters with torches or illumination crystals on their staffs, and they will not be able to escape death once they have extinguished their torches. In the dark wilderness, no human can be the opponent of these underground creatures, and players who do not have dark vision can play five achievements in combat strength when their vision is blocked.

Meanwhile, in another place, Hannibal's frantic escape with the knights of the Central Order was eventually stopped by the Drow Elves. Looking at the less than three hundred black-horned minotaurs standing in his way, and the nearly five hundred drow elves riding six-legged battle lizards, Hannibal knew that they would have to kill them if they wanted to escape. However, the aura emanating from the other party's body was not inferior to those knights behind Hannibal, and Hannibal also felt that there were at least two Cunzi forces on the other side that were not lost to him, and there were at least ten powerhouses of the lower holy ranks.
