Chapter 0294 - Wandering Around
After taking a sip of the canned physical strength potion, Lorraine had the vigorous momentum of a dragon roaring in his head, and his thin body burst out with a cry - it was so unpalatable, and after drinking it, it was so powerful, who refined this potion?
Seth himself was drinking it for the first time, and he was also stimulated by the pungent taste of the potion, forgetting his superiority and humility. He put away the jar and put it in his backpack, waved his hand and shouted, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go." When you see the master, you ask him to go. ”
The carriage left ahead of schedule, leaving more than thirty people on foot. The group took their backpacks and left the warehouse in several groups. Seth left last, looked back at the ungotten goods in the warehouse, gritted his teeth and threw a torch in.
Once on the road, the trekking team dispersed, led by the captain of each team. They will be scattered within a 10-kilometre radius, communicating with each other through the Light to ensure that they do not get lost. As soon as they left the town, the fire from the warehouse burst into the sky.
Lorraine's team consisted of only five or six people, and her heart trembled as she looked back from outside the town. She knew that there was still a lot of food in the warehouse that she couldn't take away, and she thought that someone would stay to guard it, but she didn't expect it to be burned.
How can it be wasted like this?
Thinking about the time when he was desperate because of hunger, Lorraine was puzzled by the act of burning food. The captain who can lead the way is from Harmony Village, and he has reached the point of unconditional blind obedience to the orders conveyed in the 'Holy Light', and only shouts 'go'.
The residents of the town were even more surprised when they watched Lorraine and the others leave, and then saw the warehouse on fire. When someone watched the fire and found that there was still food in the warehouse, they immediately shouted and shouted that almost the whole town put out the fire and rescued it.
At this time, Zhou Qingfeng appeared on a nearby mountain. He looked at the flying flames from afar, burned the grain and grass, and left with a blank face.
The only panicked was the Powell brothers, who were staring at the warehouse, and saw Lorraine and the others leave on foot. They were still wondering if they should divide people to follow. But when the fire was ignited, they also rushed to the fire like the residents of the town, staring at the fire.
originally thought that it would take at least half a month for the people and goods gathered in the warehouse to be transported away one by one, but he didn't expect Zhou Qingfeng to be so decisive, and he would rather suffer huge losses than simply leave without any involvement.
The warehouse was pre-arranged with flammable materials, and the flames could not be contained. When the fire subsided, Powell Jr. rushed out of the city with dozens of people and quickly chased after the burning warehouse.
At the head of the team was Louie. Fils. When this prospective city lord learned that all of Zhou Qingfeng's men had left, he also knew that he could no longer hesitate, and immediately chased after him with the newly formed 'Banshee' Knights.
Before you get close to the town, you can see the warehouse in the distance. When the horse came closer, the heat wave forced the people to retreat.
Louis. Fils glared at Powell Jr. Powell Jr. was in a hurry, and he only went back and forth for two hours, which was already a god's speed. I never expected that with such a small time difference, this warehouse was actually set on fire.
Powell Jr.'s brother squeezed out of the crowd, stumbled forward to report the situation, roughly explained the people in the warehouse and left quickly, and finally set fire to the warehouse.
"Victor. Hugo must have sensed something, and his men were in a hurry. There was at least a hundred gold worth of grain in the storehouse, which they had lit before leaving. ”
One hundred gold coins turned to ashes, which is tantamount to a super loser for the poor Northland. The members of the Knights who arrived were extremely dumbfounded, and Louis. Fils was also furious—the ease with which the enemy came and went was a great humiliation to him.
"Where did the other party's men go?"
"To the north, the last of them left on foot, without even a wagon."
"How long have you been gone?"
"Two quarters of an hour at most."
"Chase!"
Louis. Phils gritted his teeth and jumped out a word, and Powell, who failed to make a meritorious service, rushed out first with a spur on his horse. Dozens of people of the knights followed one by one, and there was a posture of not giving up until the goal was reached.
Louis. Fils also understands that he has miscalculated. He couldn't figure out Victor. Where is Hugo, so he tolerates Seth and others to move around.
But now that Seth and the others have run away, then catch Victor again. Hugo's probability is equal to zero. This cunning made people maddened, and Louis and the others secretly swore that if they caught Zhou Qingfeng's men, they would all be hacked to death to vent their hatred.
There is no reason why a fast horse can catch up with a pedestrian on foot. But after chasing north for half an hour, I didn't even see a ghost. There was only a cold wind on the road, and nothing could be seen.
But the target can't disappear for no reason.
"Victor. Where did Hugo's men go? "Louis. Fils didn't have to think much about it, and he knew that his opponent must have deviated from the northbound avenue not long after leaving the town, and instead proceeded by the side road.
But the reason why the path is a path is that it must be difficult to walk. In an era where even maps were rudimentary and abstract, you had to have a local guide to lead the way.
The road is lined with undulating terrain with plenty of shelter near and far. Louis. Fils looked around, unable to guess where his opponent would be hiding? It's a problem to find.
Powell Jr. also woke up quickly, and rode a horse with a dozen people to scatter around. He ran for about an hour, looking at the commanding heights within five kilometers of him, but he found nothing.
"No way, those guys can't go far." Louis. Fils listened to his report with a gloomy face, and a bunch of thoughts popped up in his head, but none of them could explain the current situation.
Powell Jr. even chased a few kilometers along the main road, intending to catch up with the carriage that left first. But the carriages were also gone, which was too unconscionable.
The Banshee Order has only been formed for a short time, and today is their first collective action. But this first time it was not good to go out, and a bunch of unarmed untouchables were caught in the air.
After two or three hours of waste, the wizards of the Banshee Castle followed in a carriage. The old bank who led the team in the regiment thought that he was just here to play soy sauce, and he definitely didn't need a legendary master like him to deal with a bunch of miscellaneous soldiers.
However, when the wizard got out of the car one by one, the scene was very embarrassing. Instead of catching their target, the fast-advancing 'Banshee' Knights wasted a lot of time in a chaotic search.
Where this will be is unknown.
"Don't worry, I'll look for it." Understanding the situation, Old Banker reassured everyone with a few words. He is known as the strongest wizard in the Northlands, and the specialty of the prophecy department is to reveal the truth, only wielding his staff lightly, and casting a ninth-level spell - 'Retrospective Vision'.
This is the Great Killer of the Prophecy System, where wizards can single-handedly reveal what has happened in the past. As for how long this 'past' was, it depends on the wizard's ability.
Only a few hours before Seth and the others escaped, the gray-haired Bank easily caught them in the long river of time. A projection-like image lit up in mid-air, showing everyone how the opponent had escaped.
In Seth's evacuation procession, the carriage that had been advancing early took the main road to the north, but soon broke away from the main road and headed for the side road. As for Lorraine and other people who drank the potion of stamina, they left the town on foot, but they did not go north at all......
Powell Jr. was so angry that he scolded after figuring it out: "Victor. Hugo was really too cunning. His men were like foxes. ”
Louis. Fils was puzzled, and said coldly: "These people are walking around like ants. Aren't they afraid of getting lost in the wilderness? ”
