Chapter Fifty-Nine: Giles's Reflections

Then, the hustle and bustle of the forest fell silent.

All that remained were the rummaging of corpses, the occasional whisper of curses, the muffled neighing of wounded and fallen horses, and the crackling of branches and the crackling of some of the ignited plants.

......

"Click!"

Chen Shaman twisted the neck bone of the last soldier who was left to clean the battlefield with his bare hands.

Just now.

Several of them saw the killing under their noses with their own eyes.

Even Chen Xuyuan felt that it was indeed too tragic, because most of the last surviving people in the Giles caravan were cavalrymen who charged in rows, using long spears and short spears, directly into the range of the "wall of fire", and finally howled in madness and despair - roasted alive into charcoal.

This is not a tragic scene that can be imagined on the earth by those otaku and so-called military enthusiasts, sitting at home and talking about it, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a purgatory-like scene.

Fortunately, Chen Xuyuan's autopsy has also been done a lot, and he is really used to it.

Then.

Without saying a word, he sneaked down the hillside with a few apprentices and Vasily, endured the stench of human flesh roasting until it was twelve ripe, and quickly killed the few soldiers who remained by means of a sneak attack.

The few cavalrymen who stayed behind were still cutting off the heads of their squad as their team's battle merits, while waiting for the fire to be extinguished, preparing to carefully loot the loot on the corpses, after all, a lot of valuable gold and other things would not be destroyed by the flames in a short time.

But they had no idea that someone would happen to be passing by and suddenly attack the soldiers of the army.

Shaman Chen and Vasily were also looking down to check whether there were any live mouths one by one after killing their chosen opponents.

It's just that Siggley really checked to see if anyone from the caravan survived, and Eddie ......

"These caravans are all poor ghosts, and they are all copper plates, not even a few silver coins. However, the cavalry also brought a lot of looted gold and silver jewelry, which is really a gold belt for murder and arson! Teacher, we have a lot of money again~!"

With that, he happily continued to loot the spoils.

Suddenly.

An arm covered in black charcoal, which could no longer be seen as flesh-colored, stretched out from under the cascading corpse - directly clutched Eddie, who was happily rummaging through the corpse.

It almost startled him.

Just when he was about to instinctively break free from the dead man's carbon hand.

"Please~Please!Help~Help me~One by one~......" The owner of the "carbon hand" made a faint sound.

So, he was pulled out from under the dead body by Eddie and others.

Then.

This dying survivor, with no hair and a dark face, is no longer recognizable, this is the one - Giles, the caravan leader who has just made a fortune from selling the country.

Shaman Chen squatted in front of him and used his true power to input into the other party's body, and found that the other party had extensive burns all over his body, and he had multiple knives in his body, which could not be saved by ordinary healing spells.

It's just that this true power also made Giles breathe a sigh of relief again, and he was able to explain the last few words.

His eyes widened as if he had returned to the light, and he looked at Shaman Chen for a few seconds.

Because the caravan leader had already recognized him.

Giles looked at Chen Xuyuan hopefully, and said to him intermittently: "Put ~ this space bag... Take the ...... to the outer city of Sarn 998 East Street, looking for ~ Catalina. Tell her ~ I... Love her!...... She knows. What's inside makes her ...... Half of it will be given to you. Thank you~Thank you... You..."

Let's talk about it.

Giles let out a long exhale, supporting his last breath.

He thought in his mind: Farewell to my love! Catalina! I will not sacrifice my life to buy peace and prosperity. It wasn't until this moment that I realized how absurd and terrible the world would be if it were full of people like me, who lived only for profit.

......

"This guy is really cunning! He didn't even say the spell he started, and he had to let us go to the woman! Obviously he didn't trust us, and he didn't know if the pay was enough for us to run errands. Eddie grumbled on the way.

"He just knows that forcibly opening it is very likely to damage the structure of the space bag and let the contents fall into an unknown space, so he will trust the things to us. People are afraid that people like you who are too greedy for money will turn around and swallow things by themselves!" Higrid rolled her eyes back.

Add choked for a moment, and could only glare back at Higrid in anger.

Chen Xuyuan and the four of them had already left the Kaom Kingdom at this time.

After walking for hundreds of miles, the small road turned into a large road, and finally onto the spacious "national highway".

Even during the war, commerce was still thriving, so they soon met more and more other caravans along the way.

Chen Xuyuan and others pretended to be small businessmen and walked with other businessmen.

There were no surprises, but they followed all sorts of caravans, large and small, all the way to the outside of the border fortress of the Azmeri Kingdom.

Just wait for the next day to pass through the checkpoint and pay the tax, and then you can enter this small kingdom.

Because their destination, the city of Saen, is located on the northeastern border of the kingdom of Azmari, and it is safer to travel on the roads within this kingdom than along the turbulent border between the two countries.

In case there is a lot of danger in the rebellion, even the road rage tax collector who collects tolls indiscriminately will not want to die as long as the money is charged.

So.

They can only make a fire here today and eat dry food.

......

A young marquis in bright gold armor was leading his soldiers of the Oriath Kingdom to evacuate quickly and furiously away from the frontline that had been turned into a meat grinder.

Look at the fire and smoke in front of the battlefield in the distance.

He took a sip and scolded secretly: Fuck, it was supposed to be agreed that the two countries would divide the gem mine together. If it weren't for the sissies and old ** in the Kaom Kingdom, who were stabbed in the chrysanthemum, how would we need to fight the Azmerians alone here.

Eventually, though, it was my turn to trim my troops.

There was a faint smile on his face, but a few guards next to him had already understood—they suddenly reminded: "Lord Marquis, ahead is the border between the Kaom Kingdom and the Azmeri Kingdom. Which country are we going to pretend to be soldiers of this country and go to fight the Grass Valley?"

The Marquis of Jinjia and a few guards rode their horses on the hill, and the view here was excellent, enough to look out dozens of kilometers away.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, there are stars everywhere, and that's because many towns have been lit with fires.

The Marquis of Golden Armor took a closer look with a telescope.

Hey!
