Of course, the so-called turtle speed is also relative, after all, no matter how slow the horse pulls, it cannot be slower than the turtle, and the speed of the turtle is not necessarily very slow. (To read the latest chapter of this book, please visit the Wèn Aishang Novel Network biquge.info) When Chen Kai and they were extremely vigilant, the carriage slowly drove slowly in the Isthmus of Mozaffi, and the sound of the carriage crushing on the ground was extremely clear in the isthmus.
The bells on the carriage were constantly tinkling under the blowing of the mountain wind, and the sound of the horses' hooves was extremely quiet. In this case, all the mercenaries did not speak, because any high-minded talk would seem contrived.
The reputation of the Mozarfi Isthmus in the Rohan Empire is no better than that of the Zafaro Forest, so it is definitely problematic to talk about pretending to be calm here except for the brain-dead. On the contrary, extraordinary caution was the only thought of all merchants when they crossed the isthmus, and Chen Kai and the others did the same. However, when the carriage reached the middle of the isthmus, the expected attack did not appear, which made many of the mercenaries even more nervous.
Because the middle of the entire Mozarfi Isthmus is the most dangerous part of the entire Great Mozafi Pass, which is the place where Chen Kai and his family just passed, the road here is the narrowest, and at the same time, there are the most cracks in the ground around. These crevices, which are said to be able to connect to the underworld, often lead to the emergence of some underground dwellers, from shadow scorpions to dark elves and other magical beasts or intelligent beings. In such an environment, there is no such thing as safety at all, and there will be terrible smoke blowing from the cracks in the ground. Some of the cracks also have skull marks marked with wooden plaques with a symbol representing poison painted on them, apparently a crack that spews poisonous gas.
Such a crack in the ground was on the edge of a major road, and the price to pay for discovering it in the first place was extremely heavy. A whole caravan of nearly 200 people was poisoned by the poisonous gas spewed from the cracks in the ground, although the cracks were blocked later, but because the accumulated pressure will become greater and greater day by day, the final outcome will be even more miserable. When the fissures were swept away by the accumulation of poisonous gas, half of the roads of the Great Isthmus of Mozarfi were covered with poisonous fog. It took nearly two weeks for the Rohan Empire to clear the gathering poisonous fog, and the damage caused was far greater than if the cracks in the ground were not blocked.
Chen Kai: Their luck is very good. By the time we passed through this, the crack had already erupted. This is definitely good news for Chen Kai and them, and it can only reduce their nervousness a little. But everyone knew that when they walked into this isthmus, the wheels of fate began to turn at high speed. Now everyone is silently praying, praying that they will not be crushed by the wheels of fate.
The carriage was still moving forward, and instead of letting go as the carriage was about to leave this dangerous area, everyone began to become more nervous. The most dangerous time is never when the danger has just arrived, but when the so-called danger has just passed. Perhaps when you thought it was dangerous and let your guard down in the past, the Grim Reaper began to swing his scythe and fell towards her head.
"Nima's! It's so blatant!" Fei Yun looked at the robbers standing in the middle of the road not far away. In fact, at this moment, they remembered the robber who had robbed them for the first time in the Zafaro forest. It's just that these people in front of them are more powerful than the robbers, at least there were not a few robbers in the original gang who were heavily armoured, and there were not a few strong people at the level of big knights. The most important thing is that the two leaders are wearing a piece of silver heavy armor, and at the same time, the professional logo on their chests shows the identity of the other party's high-ranking knight, that is, a tenth-order powerhouse. As the two reserve holy domains, coming to bully Chen Kai, these caravans with the highest rank of a ninth-order warrior, Chen Kai felt very depressed and unhappy in his heart.
"It's more than blatant. It's just bullying! Two tenth-order great knights, why don't those guys just send two holy realms over!" Xu Fei swallowed his saliva, although the tenth-order great knight was nothing to the powerhouses of the Holy Domain, but for players like them, it was an unattainable existence. Because no matter how they say it, they are only sixty-one, and the tenth-order great knight is a hundred-level being.
"It's not that I don't want to, but I can't! If two Sanctuaries were to be sent over, the fool would know what Archduke Miranda and Marquis Zafaro wanted to do, and it would be dangerous to mobilize more than tenth-order powerhouses within the empire. Without the permission of the Emperor or the Temple, the Holy Rank powerhouses were not allowed to leave their places and wander around. This is true even if it is a sanctuary that is loyal to a certain lord, because a sanctuary powerhouse is fully capable of infiltrating various lords' mansions to assassinate lords. This is a very scary thing! Therefore, without the permission of His Majesty the Emperor or the Divine Temple, no Sacred Realm powerhouse can leave the place where they are supposed to stay, and they must register after entering the city!" Hammerta's words made everyone understand that it was not that the two great nobles did not want to send out the Sanctuary, but that the powerhouses of the Sanctuary were very restricted in their actions within the Rohan Empire. According to Hammer Tower, if this kind of private affairs, especially robbery, is discovered, there may not be anything below the Holy Rank, but above the Holy Rank, it will be a taboo for all the great nobles.
Because of this, even though Archduke Miranda and Marquis Zafaro have the ability to deal with all the nobles, they still dare not touch the bottom line in the hearts of all the nobles. That is, they would never send out the powerhouses of the Holy Realm to carry out this kind of assassination or robbery, because the destructive power of the Saint Rank and above was too terrifying. Once the attack is done, it is very difficult for the target to survive, or the whole family will die. Even sometimes the whole family will die and the light will be more strict. Because some aristocratic families themselves are guarded by the powerhouses of the Holy Domain, if the two Holy Domains fight to the death, then at least half of the city can be destroyed. Especially when it comes to one's own family. Even if it is a continuation of one's own descendants, even an ordinary holy domain may burst out with the combat power of a title-level powerhouse. In this kind of battle, there are countless cases of burning lives and even souls to fight, and even the imperial capital of Hansting directly destroyed one-third of the city because of the life-and-death struggle between the two holy domains.
Therefore, no matter in which country, any Sacred Realm above the Sacred Realm must be allowed to enter the city, and if the Sacred Domain powerhouses from other places attack the Sacred Domains subordinate to the city in this city, then all the powerhouses in the same city must defeat each other in a short time. Even revenge is not allowed, of course, for some powerful legends, such rules are as non-binding as a blank sheet of paper. Their strength allows them to act unscrupulously where there are no legends, and they can do anything as long as they don't provoke other legends, even some of the higher legends even have some small principalities in mind. To put it bluntly, as long as you have strength in the game, even the law can be trampled on. But if you don't have the strength, then even if you are a dragon, you have to do things according to the established rules.
Therefore, Chen Kai and the others only saw two tenth-order powerhouses now, not two holy domains. If there were really two holy realms, let alone Hammer Tower, no matter how terrifying Fei Yun's heavy crossbow was, no matter how powerful the spells released by Xu Fei's gun staff were, it would be useless.
"Hammer Tower, the Axe Mercenary, and this huge figure should be the Flame Two-Headed Lion Kaichen? Saint? Lapston? Lord Burkner, huh?" The high knight wearing the family emblem of Grand Duke Miranda on his body slowly urged the war horse out of the crowd, and he looked at Chen Kai and them with condescending eyes, as if he was superior. In fact, even if he was an ordinary bodyguard, as one of the personal guards of the Grand Duke Miranda, he could be arrogant in status compared to many low-ranking nobles. Even the baron seemed to him to be an ordinary man, for he had seen too many barons prostrate in front of the Archduke Miranda like dogs.
"The little lord dares to offend the Marquis of Zafaro! It seems that you have really lived enough! It turned out to be a traveler, no wonder he is so not afraid of death!!" The great knight subordinate to the Marquis of Zafaro raised his arrogant head and showed a disdainful look towards Chen Kai, but his eyes couldn't help but show a hint of greed as they swept over Chen Kai's armor. But after comparing the heights of the two sides, he found that even if he transformed Chen Kai's armor, he might not be able to wear it.
"What more nonsense! To put it bluntly, it's not that they don't plan to let us go. Could it be that you would be kind enough to let the mercenaries here go! Don't laugh, those blood-dripping bags behind your ass should be the heads of those mercenaries who left beforehand!" Xu Fei's words made the faces of several mercenaries who wanted to retreat change, and at the same time looked at the back seat of the big knight's war horse, where a large bag of blood-dripping objects was constantly exuding bloody gas.
"It turns out that you already know! Since they have embarked on this path, then we can't be blamed for being ruthless, anyone who offends the Marquis will die!" The big knight threw out the cloth bag containing the head with a flick of his hand, and the cloth bag rolled on the ground and spread out directly, revealing the head inside. These heads are all mercenaries who took Chen Kai's money and left, but they are all dead now, and they don't even know why they died.
When they saw the heads of those dead mercenaries, everyone, including Chen Kai, began to clench their fists. Anger builds up in the hearts of all. Although these mercenaries were a little afraid of death, they were killed for such a ridiculous and simple reason. What is called the person who offends the Marquis of Zafaro will die, these mercenaries just protected Chen Kai's caravan all the way, and there was no offense at all, but they were killed because they protected Chen Kai or simply because Chen Kai offended the Marquis of Zafaro. But in fact, Chen Kai did not offend the so-called Marquis of Zafaro, he was completely a poor man who was affected by the battle between the nobles and the faction of the noble senate of the Emperor of the Rohan Empire, he was a chicken who was used to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys. These mercenaries are also chickens that are used to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, but it is Chen Kai who is warned. The most important thing is that even if Chen Kai is now the monkey who was warned, because he still has to be used as a ** warning Count Zaf. Therefore, he still could not escape death.
"What nonsense! Just cut them down and go back to your life! We've been out for too long. I don't want to be punished by the Grand Duke!" The high knight who belonged to the Grand Duke of Miranda flicked the dust on his armor and said, in fact, he was also very disdainful of the great knight of the same rank beside him. Because the other party is too rude. In his opinion, such a person could only be used by the bandit leader of the Marquis of Zaffaro, the same crude and ugly.
That's what I want to say to you! Disperse! guys chop them up!" Chen Kai's words seemed to be a signal of attack, in fact, the distance between the two sides was not far in the first place, because the peculiarity of the Isthmus of Mozarfi made it rare to have a straight way to survive. The length of a straight road will never exceed two hundred meters, and then there will definitely be a turn. Maybe the angle of the bend will be smaller, but it can block everyone's view. It can be said that Chen Kai and the others encountered these private troops subordinate to the Marquis of Zafaro and the Grand Duke of Miranda after they walked out of the corner, and then the straight-line distance between the two sides was less than a hundred meters.
In fact, if it weren't for saying a few words of nonsense, this late kill would definitely start with Chen Kai and them being sneak attacked, not with Chen Kai's voice and Fei Yun's heavy crossbow sneak attack. The High Knight Pei Lomon, who was subordinate to the Marquis of Zaffaro, would never have thought that Chen Kai, who was already considered the prey by himself, would take the lead in attacking, but still used a heavy crossbow to sneak attack this kind of attack. The use of crossbow machines among the nobility was despised. Although most nobles still use it, it is definitely spurned on the surface. This is like setting up a memorial arch when you are a watch, and the nobles who pay attention to face pay more attention to this kind of thing.
But who is Chen Kai? He's a traveler, and to put it bluntly, a player. If the player still values his face at the moment of life and death, then there is no need to mix, the most important thing is that face is worth a few dollars for Chen Kai, if he can't pass this time, he will lose at least three million, and it is still worth in the north of the Rohan Empire. If they sell these goods in Frederik, they will be able to earn at least 2 million, which is a total of five million, and if they enter Kazmodo, they will earn an additional million gold coins. When it comes to the imperial capital of Hansting, the price can at least add 1 million on the basis of five million.
Compared to such a huge income, and not counting the value of the goods in his backpack space and storage bag, how could Chen Kai lose all his money for a little face. Therefore, it is nothing to let Fei Yun use a crossbow machine to sneak attack, if conditions allow, he even hopes to let Xu Fei directly use his gun and staff to sweep all the enemies away with one blow.
Almost at the moment when Chen Kai's words fell, Fei Yun completed a series of actions from aiming to pulling the trigger and firing the crossbow arrow. The reason why they didn't aim in the first place was very simple, the closer they got to the Sanctuary, the stronger their intuition about danger became. The Sanctuary is powerful because they have thoroughly incorporated this intuition into the battle. But this does not mean that the Sanctuary is invincible, if the Sanctuary is invincible, then there will not be so many Saint-level powerhouses on the Redstone Fortress, even legendary demigods and even gods will not say that they are invincible, because the invincible in this world is only time.
Although Fei Yun's attack was a sneak attack, it did not mean that his attack would hurt Peromon. No matter how rough Pelomont is, he is an out-and-out tenth-order knight, just one step away from the Holy Domain, and although he did not find the heavy crossbow in advance under Fei Yun's various zinc tricks, he still relied on his agile skills to avoid the terrifying crossbow arrows.
The whizzing crossbow bolts almost grazed his cheek, leaving a long trail of blood on his face and piercing the open mouths of the two knights behind him. The pull of up to 500 kilograms combined with the armor-piercing crossbow arrows created such a terrible kill. Even the powerhouses of the Sanctuary did not dare to confront the armor-piercing crossbow arrows fired by such a heavy crossbow head-on without stimulating their fighting spirit.
"Bastard! Damn bastards! You fucking want to kill me, you want to kill me! I'll kill you!" Touching the blood on his cheek that had been grazed by the crossbow arrows, Pelomon cried out as if he had been castrated. Because at that moment, he almost felt that he was dead, the distance between the two sides was too close, and he was only less than fifty meters away from Fei Yun's crossbow machine. This distance only takes less than half a second for the crossbow arrows fired by the heavy crossbow, and it doesn't even take half a second to fly, if it weren't for Pelomon tilting his head, it is estimated that his face would be the same as the two knights behind him.
"Idiot!" This is the only opinion of everyone, including the High Grand Knight of the Grand Duke of Miranda beside Pelomon, the only opinion of the High Knight of Pelomont, for the High Knight Cervantileuf, who is subordinate to the Grand Duke of Miranda, and killing Chen Kai together with Peromon may be the stupidest and most humiliating thing he has done in his life. In fact, if it weren't for Pelomon insisting on giving Chen Kai and them a dismount, according to Cervantilef's idea, they could have launched a surprise attack before Chen Kai and them got out of the corner. Let Chen Kai, who had just walked out of the danger zone, receive a head-on blow. If you follow what he does. Then it should not be them who are in chaos now, and it should not be them who are the first to suffer.
"It's all to blame on this stupid pig. This idiot!" Cervantileuf continued to roar angrily in his heart, but his face still had to maintain the demeanor of the Miranda family, even if it was a dirty thing like robbery, in Cervantileuf's opinion, he had to let the robbed bastard see the aristocratic demeanor of the Miranda family before he died.
