Chapter 19: The Carriage That Was Stolen

Just as Roland was thinking, the battlefield changed again, and those shadow ghosts saw that the fifteen silver-armored knights who looked like steel pots had been standing still, so they howled angrily, picked up the short blades in their hands, and frantically pounced on the battlefield.

"Damn, those guys are here again!"

A hint of heaviness flashed across Captain Carter's face, and he whispered to the group of mercenaries.

No matter what, he had to leave here with these guys, after all, it was for that promise, and Miss Erin must not be harmed.

However, at this time, an anomaly on the battlefield caught his attention,

I saw that those silver armored knights who had been motionless since they first appeared actually moved, and with a bang, they neatly held their shields in front of them, and then they collectively made a charging posture.

"Charge!"

Suddenly, a dull command came from one of the Silver Armored Knights in his armor.

In an instant, all the Silver Armored Knights held their shields and kicked their feet into the dirt, charging towards the shadow ghosts that pounced in the distance, but it was unbelievable that these Silver Armored Knights exuded the momentum of thousands of horses.

"Damn, how did they rush up, how could fifteen people stop so many monsters!"

Although the momentum on their bodies was very terrifying, Captain Carter still didn't think they could stop so many shadow ghosts, but as a result, they slapped Captain Carter in the face.

I saw that after those silver-armored knights rushed into a bunch of shadow ghosts, they used the armor on their bodies to bear the slash of the blade, and then waved the knight's long sword in their hands, and even picked up the huge shield and smashed it at the shadow ghosts, and every part of their body could be used as a weapon to attack the enemy.

"Oh my God...... Are they still human? ”

Suddenly, all the mercenaries looked at these silver-armored knights in amazement, forgetting that they were in danger in the Forest of Shadows.

In their eyes, these guys are simply a bunch of monsters that are more monsters than monsters. Fifteen knights have withstood the attack of more than thirty shadow ghosts, and they are still in the upper hand, what could be crazier than this!

However, at the same time, Roland called up the information of [Armored Guard] and [Shadow Clone], and looked at those empty card slots, and his heart couldn't help but be full of anticipation.

Owning this card is equivalent to directly owning fifteen powerful bodyguards, and you will never have to worry about melee safety in the future.

【Armored Guards】

Notes: "They don't need to sleep or eat, so hiring them as guards is a very ...... It's a very good choice! - From the miserly goblin merchant Cabridge

At this time, Roland couldn't help but feel a little pity when he saw this, if it weren't for the restriction of the armored guards, he would have been able to pull up a loyal army in some time with this card.

And he found that even if the armored guards killed monsters, he could still gain experience, but it was only a third less than killing by himself, so the idea of upgrading his experience came to his mind.

Suddenly, just as Roland was thinking, two black shadows suddenly flashed in front of him, and when he looked up, he saw that two shadow ghosts had come to him at some point, grinning fiercely, wielding short blades and slashing at his head.

If it is cut, even if Roland is as strong as a warrior, he will say goodbye to this world!

But perhaps because of luck, the two stupid shadow ghosts actually targeted the two shadow clones beside Roland, and with a pop, the short blades instantly pierced the heads of the two shadow clones.

However, to the puzzlement of the two shadow ghosts, there was not a trace of blood flowing from the blades, which made them look at the two "dead" humans in front of them in a state of thought.

"Damn, you can't be careless in the state of battle!"

Suddenly, Roland scolded secretly, and hurriedly fired two fireball spells at the two monsters in front of him, if he didn't hit such a close distance, then Roland would still be dead.

When he gained the experience of the two monsters, he immediately felt that his back had been soaked with cold sweat, if it wasn't for these two doppelgangers just now, he would have died a long time ago, and it was really dangerous.

At this time, the battle outside was over, and those shadow ghosts seemed to have a boss with some intelligence, seeing that the assassination of Roland could not be successful, and they could not defeat the steel cans in front of them, they immediately retreated with all the shadow ghosts, and after a while, these short guys disappeared into the dim jungle.

"Perhaps...... Should I go over and say hello? No, forget it, now is not the time to talk about that. ”

After thinking about it, Roland decided that he couldn't go over to say hello, after all, there were other things to do now.

Suddenly, he secretly gave the order to the fifteen armored guards to retreat, and drove the horses that sat down to leave the place.

"Could it be him...... It was definitely him, the priest's robe full of holy light. ”

But at this time, Captain Carter looked in the direction of the departure of the Silver Armored Knight, and immediately saw the obvious figure of Roland wearing a priest's robe, and Roland's appearance and the assistance of the Silver Armored Knight just now made him immediately connect the two.

"I want to call him Roland...... If I have the opportunity to meet in the future, I must thank him well, and I believe that the master thinks the same way. ”

However, Carter did not stop Roland's departure, since Roland chose to leave at this time, there must be a reason for him, and Carter was embarrassed to delay other people's affairs, so he could only look forward to the next meeting with Roland.

In fact, Captain Carter was not the only one who saw it, on the carriage depicting the sun merchants, a beautiful girl was secretly opening the window and staring at Roland's departing figure, her eyes were full of curiosity.

"Miss Irene, what are you looking at?"

"No, I'm just curious if that man is really an ordinary priest, just like the bard says hero, can bring light in the darkness and bring hope for survival."

The girl named Erin turned to one of the women in the carriage.

"Sokhovishka!"

At this moment, something unexpected happened, and I saw a few hoarse roars in the dim jungle, and it could be heard from the sound that this sound came from those shadow ghosts just now.

As soon as the words fell, there were a few whistling sounds in the air again, and two black shadows jumped down from the tall trees, and landed accurately on the carriage depicting the Sun Chamber of Commerce.

Suddenly, the two shadow ghosts who had seized control of the carriage immediately screamed, and rushed out of the encirclement of the mercenaries like crazy on their horses, and rushed towards the jungle.

It was so quick that after a while, Captain Carter and the other mercenaries reacted that they had been robbed by those monster robbers and had robbed a carriage.

"Damn, hurry up and chase after you, you must protect Miss Erin, at any cost!" Captain Carter, who came back to his senses, immediately yelled at the mercenaries beside him.

"Yes!"

All the mercenaries realized the severity of the situation, and in a panic, they dropped all their goods and chased after the crazy carriage.

If the people in that carriage died, it is estimated that their lives would be over.

……………………………………

However, Roland, who was about to leave at this time, also stopped, because he heard a noisy sound in his ears, could it be that those shadow ghosts had returned?

He quickly turned his head to look in that direction, only to see a carriage frantically crashing into the crowd around him, quickly scurrying into the jungle and disappearing, and he also noticed that the carriage depicted the logo of the Sun Chamber of Commerce.

Oops, it's the carriage and the girl is on it!

Immediately, Roland immediately clamped the horse's belly with his feet, drove the horse to chase in that direction, and in his heart gave an order to the fifteen armored guards to save the people in the carriage!

Anyway, these mercenaries also helped him, how could Roland sit idly by and ignore such a thing!

Those shadow ghosts looked very excited after grabbing the carriage, and they didn't care about the three forces chasing after them at all, and some of them even stood on the roof of the carriage and physically provoked Roland and the others.

Damn, how can that carriage be so fast!

At this time, Roland looked at the distance that couldn't be closed no matter what, and couldn't help but curse secretly.

Suddenly, Roland remembered that he had just found a shortcut as he passed here, and perhaps that path would allow him to reach the front of the carriage.

"By the way, hey, man, let's get around the other side!"

Upon hearing Roland's voice, the black horse under him immediately neighed in understanding, and quickened his pace to turn to the shortcut that Roland had said.

In an instant, the black horse carried Roland into the dense jungle, and the sharp branches and leaves continued to cut Roland's exposed skin, if it weren't for the special priest's robe on his body, it is estimated that the clothes on his body have now become beggar's clothes.

Time passed little by little, and Roland silently endured the pain in his body, but now he couldn't take care of so much, and there was only one way to save the carriage.

After about five minutes, suddenly the horse under him leaped out of the dense jungle and appeared on a forest path.
