readx;? Allen's words did make Bloom hesitate, Alan was standing by Bloom's side during the battle just now, and he really didn't hear him chanting magic spells, and the most important thing is that Allen didn't behave like a great magician all the way, if he was a great magician, he would have to hide in his own caravan and pass through the border. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info but Bloom didn't see the magic array Bloom that Eren said either, but he saw a few magic crystals.

"Captain, although the horse bandits have withdrawn for the time being, their purpose has obviously not been achieved, so I don't think they will give up on this, and there will definitely be actions in the future, so should we discuss the next move. ”

Seeing the hesitation of Captain Bloom, Allen immediately changed the topic, and it was really inappropriate to continue the topic just now, otherwise it would only make his own lies full of loopholes even more ridiculous.

"Okay, but thank you Mr. Levens for your help. ”

Captain Bloom is not a verbose person either, and since Alan firmly denies it, he doesn't want to dwell on it anymore.

"We're just helping each other, and we're magicians useless without you charging ahead. ”

Alan said this obviously to express his gratitude, but he didn't expect Bloom to just smile bitterly and sigh: "We were born to fight hard, and it is natural to rush to the front." ”

Similar words, Alan seemed to have heard it in Captain Havech's mouth before, but Captain Havech didn't explain why, and Bloom also said this with an expression of wanting to say something, maybe fatalism is very popular among mercenaries, but before Alan asked, a mercenary over there had already run over to report the situation.

"Report to the captain, four of our brothers were seriously injured, not life-threatening, twelve were slightly injured, the others were unharmed, and Master Frank was healing them. Three of the horse bandits were killed, fifteen were seriously wounded, and all the others fled. Victor, the owner of the caravan, ran away with a few of his men and the bandits, and the rest of the men were there, apparently unaware of the collusion between the boss and the bandits. ”

The mercenary briefly reported the results of the battle and the current situation, and when he heard that his brother had not been sacrificed, Bloom's expression was much more relaxed.

"Arrange the guard, the others hurry up and rest, and set out at dawn tomorrow, the wounded of the horse bandits are there, and I will go to meet them. ”

Captain Bloom breathed a sigh of relief after his debriefing, but the outcome of the battle was no longer important, what mattered was what happened next.

"I also went over to ask them something. ”

Alan saw that Bloom wanted to meet the wounded soldiers of the horse bandits, and he happened to ask the horse bandits if they knew the five murderers, so he also offered to go with them.

Led by the reporting mercenaries, Alan and Bloom came to the location of the wounded horse bandits, and before they could see them, Alan already smelled a smell of blood.

"Are you afraid?"

Alan turned around and asked Steven about the three, Steven and Stanny both shook their heads, and the little girl Miranda, although her face was a little pale, finally shook her head to show that she was not afraid.

The first thing that caught the eyes of several people was three corpses lying on the ground, all of them were sword wounds, and blood flowed all over the ground, and most of the blood they smelled came from this. When the little girl Miranda saw this scene, she only felt nauseous, and quickly covered her mouth and forcibly suppressed the feeling of vomiting.

Next to the three corpses, more than a dozen people lying or sitting were all wounded by the horse bandits, most of them were wounded in the legs, so they could not escape, so they could only wait here to be dealt with by the mercenaries.

"Why did you attack us in disguise, and what was your purpose?"

Captain Bloom didn't have time to talk nonsense about the wounded soldiers, so he cut straight to the point, but all he answered was silence.

"How dare you do it, but I will spare your life as long as you answer my question, or you will be like the three of them and will throw your corpse into the wilderness and feed the wild dogs." ”

Captain Bloom sneered, then turned his head and gestured to one of his men, who immediately drew his broadsword from his side, walked over to a wounded bandit, and then placed his greatsword on his neck, the weight of which caused the sharp blade to cut through the skin of his neck at once, and blood slid down the blade. Cold sweat immediately flowed down the bandit's forehead, and he didn't know whether it was scared or hurt.

"There's no need for this, it's not a secret, if there's any problem, just ask. I promise to tell you the truth what I know. ”

A horse bandit with a sword wound in the thigh suddenly spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke in a thick local Shig accent, he may be a small leader, and when the life of his companion is threatened, he can only take the initiative to stand up.

"Very good! The first question is, who are you, and what is the purpose of robbing us in such a painstaking position?"

Captain Bloom turned his gaze to the current affairs of the horse bandit and continued to ask.

"We're General Bols's men, and the caravan has our things, and we're here to bring them back. ”

Although the Bols rebels had been reduced to bandits, their men still used to use the old name of Bols as a general.

"There are many of you, why don't you just do it, but take the approach of approaching in disguise? And where is the Higg army that chased you before?"

The bandits' words basically confirmed Captain Bloom's guess, so Captain Bloom began to ask a second question.

"Higg's army has been wiped out, we disguise that we don't want to reveal our identity, and by the way, we blame you for the crime of annihilating the cavalry, and let Hig's army chase and kill you, so we can retreat calmly. Tonight, we deliberately created the illusion of a horse bandit attack, originally to scare you away, so we took the goods without moving a knife or a shot, but we didn't expect your identity to be recognized in advance, so we had to do it, but I didn't expect to underestimate your strength. ”

The bandit's next answer was also reasonable, and he said it almost without thinking, which shows that he was not lying.

"What is the relationship between the caravan owner Victor and you?"

Bloom asked a third question.

"Partnership, his identity has always been a businessman, but more than once he brought goods to us from the north. ”

Alan listened beside him, and said in his heart: It seems that the caravan owner Victor should be a member of the Yus Empire, and he was ordered to support the horse bandits against Higg and the Holy See, so the bar owner Uma is afraid and can't get out of the relationship, and the reason why they are interested in themselves is that they have already recognized their identity, and it seems that if they move in the territory of Yus in the future, they must be extra careful, and there are eyes and ears of the empire everywhere.
