For six or seven years, the Steeltooth and Hammer bandits had been entrenched on the Ironhoof Plains, threatening the main routes of transport to Tórshavn and several nearby cities, as well as the long borders.

The bandit bandit most often did raiding passing caravans, as well as some of the more affluent villages in the region.

But unlike other bandits, Steeltooth Hammer does not accept ransom, and anyone they kidnap will be silent. Excluding the possibility of being forced to join the bandit group, the only end is to be killed.

Such a bandit group will naturally arouse the hostility and hatred of many merchants, and the nearby garrison regiment has also been sent out to encircle and suppress several times under the impetus of the merchants, but the frequency of the steel tooth hammer going out to loot is not high, and they are inextricably linked with some high-status figures, and there are not many people who report for them. In addition, the ransom was not accepted, which meant that there was no way to use spies and undercover agents to find out where the den of this bandit group was, so several encirclements and suppressions ended in failure, and no one had helped them for several years.

In the game, the Steel Tooth Hammer Bandit Group is also a hostile NPC that is not easy to deal with, and the two bandit leaders - Steel Tooth Scott and Iron Hammer Cyril are both monsters at the elite boss level, with the strength of the lower section of the Black Bronze Medal, that is, the first order that has stepped into the door of the rank, which is equivalent to the caster of the first ring.

At that time, the general level of the players who did this task of destroying the bandit group was only level 6 or 7, although the initial template was an elite warrior, but the other party came with two strong men with black medals at once, although the actual combat power was only equivalent to two level 7 players, but with two enemies and one, plus the help of a group of low-level NPCs, it was impossible to succeed unless the player with a certain level of skill was possible.

Ordinary players who failed the mission one after another complained that the task was too difficult, but before they could complain, a technical player had already found a simple and feasible way, and posted the detailed strategy on the forum, rescuing a large number of handicap parties.

Erwin plans to rescue the spy leader Mr. Hall from the Steeltooth Hammer Bandits this time, because he didn't accept the task of destroying the bandits, so he doesn't need to face the two Black Medal bandit leaders alone.

However, even with the addition of Susan and Illya, the three of them are no match for the entire bandit group, so Erwin decided to use the strategy on the forum to deal with the bandits.

After listening to Erwin's explanation of the situation of the Steeltooth Hammer Bandits, as well as his own plans, Susan and Illya suddenly realized why he had left Tórshavn for Lorenzo with the caravan.

"Then Mr. Goblin probably wanted to investigate the location of the bandit group's den, so they will retaliate, right?" Susan brushed the fire in front of her with a twig, turned to Elwin, and said that she seemed to have been influenced by Elia, and that her name for Hall, the spy leader, had changed to the goblin of the night.

"Maybe, but since the bandits kidnapped Mr. Hall and didn't kill him on the spot, they probably planned to get some information about the night owl from him."

Erwin shook his head, he actually had a big doubt.

It stands to reason that an official spy organization like the Night Stalkers in North Sunderland would not investigate a local bandit group like the Steel Tooth Hammer for no reason, unless there is a need or a commission from the City Defense Corps.

However, in recent years, the city defense corps has lost interest in the thankless task of clearing the steel tooth hammer, first, the border adjacent to the Black Eagle Grassland is becoming more and more unstable, and there is a possibility of a large-scale war at any time, and most of the main forces of the country have been sent there. Second, the military clashes with Lorenço became more frequent and intense, with the other side often sending small troops into North Sunderland to raid border villages, and then slandering North Sunderland's army for doing the same thing as them.

If it weren't for the Titan Holy See's efforts to suppress and pacify, the two countries of North Sunderland and Lorenzo would have already broken out into a full-scale war.

However, there are also different voices in the palace of North Sunderland, in addition to the main battle faction, after all, this country also has a threat from the Black Hawk Grassland, once a war breaks out with either side, the other side will definitely not be in peace, and miss this opportunity to put North Sunderland in a two-headed predicament.

Of course, the pastures of the black barbarians on the Black Eagle Grassland are also being invaded by other nomads, and there are frequent battles. And the borders adjacent to Lorenzo and other countries are not very quiet, and the hegemony struggle on the territorial waters of Poseidon is gradually emerging, and now every country in this big 6 seems to be facing all kinds of anxious things from the outside.

As if this peace were just a hypocritical curtain on the stage, once opened, a stage play called War and Death would descend on Elend's world.

Of course, this was too far away for Erwin, who was only thinking about why the Steeltooth Hammer Bandits had taken out the Night Stalker's stronghold and kidnapped a spy leader.

You must know that the night owl is the largest spy organization in North Sunderland, and the energy it has is definitely not something that a small bandit group can resist, once the night owl is now the stronghold of Tórshavn is actually wiped out by a local bandit group, their anger can be imagined, and the steel tooth hammer can definitely not withstand such anger.

Neither of the two thieves was an idiot and would not fail to understand the consequences - there must have been a reason for them to do so, or there must have been enough profit to drive them.

Moreover, in the game, the Steel Tooth Hammer was able to survive until a year later before being pushed down by the players, apparently the Night Stalker did not attack the Steel Tooth Hammer during this time.

Erwin didn't think it was because of the influence of his own butterfly, and the reason why the night stalker didn't make a move was definitely not because he hadn't taken out his current stronghold yet, or because he didn't have time to make a move. He suddenly thought that if according to the real history, Victor Shun Lì fled from Dagger City, then could it be because of the content of the information he handed over that led the night owls not to deal with the steel-toothed hammer that dared to provoke them?

You must know that this information is something that Victor does not want to hand over to the top of the Wolf Legion, and the secret recorded on it must be very important.

Of course, Erwin couldn't think of anything about the connection between the two for a while, he had a big head now, so he could only forget about these problems first, get Mr. Hall out, and complete the mission.

Erwin glanced up at Illya, who was eating, and couldn't help but exhale, if it was replaced by another more reliable spy, he would definitely know a lot of things, and he didn't know where Hall, the spy leader, went to find such an unreliable temporary worker.

…………

Early the next morning, the caravan went out after sorting out the trivial matters again, and Erwin's three-man group also fully waved the spirit of the tail of the car, and followed the caravan step by step.

Time passed in the middle of a boring and tedious journey, and sometimes the girl named Elena would run to the back and say a few words during the break. However, in addition to Erwin, the other two girls didn't seem to be very friendly to Elena's cousin, and they looked like they ignored it - probably because Elena was too enthusiastic about Irwin's cousin, which made him a little unbearable.

Even Adair made a point of running to the back once, speaking politely, but the meaning of his words was obvious—don't make a move on my daughter.

It didn't take long for even the entire caravan to know that the daughter of the leader of the Fire Lion Mercenary Regiment had taken a fancy to the little white-faced adventurer who followed behind.

This made Erwin both complacent and headache for a long time.

Of course, the journey was not destined to be peaceful, and the accident occurred on the third day after the caravan left Tórshavn.

"Head, there's movement ahead!" Two mercenaries who had been exploring the path in front ran back, and Adair immediately ordered the entire caravan to stop and wait.

After a while, another mercenary returned, bringing not so good news: "There is a group of people in front who are being attacked by bandits, probably a small nobleman with his family and guards. Both sides were outnumbered, but the robbers had the upper hand. ”

Adair groaned and immediately decided to take a detour. He didn't want to cause trouble, and saving the nobles was only a word or two of gratitude at most, and if he offended the bandit group because of this, he was very likely to be targeted by them.

However, this was denied by Hubert, the master of the caravan, who came to Adair in a lavishly decorated carriage and looked out the window and said, "Go and save the nobleman." ”

"Mr. Hubert, we can't get into trouble, the other party is a nobleman, and if you are caught by robbers, you just need to pay the ransom. We're a foreign caravan, and it's too much trouble to be targeted by bandits. Adair hurriedly admonished.

"You mean, you can't deal with a few bandits?" Hubert stared condescendingly at Adair from inside the carriage, "I don't care how much it costs, but I have to make sure that every penny of my money is well spent." Now it seems like I've wasted more than a dozen golds. ”

"Nope! Sir, we are not weak, and the power of the Fire Lion is evident in the Guild of the Freed. Adair gritted his teeth, knowing he couldn't back down.

"That's good, save them, five Jinsid." Hubert lowered the curtain on the window, as if he didn't want to talk nonsense to Adair.

Donasius on the side of the carriage hurriedly pulled Adair aside, he knew the temper and character of his employer, and he liked to make friends with people with status, and the status of a small nobleman was not much lower than that of a big businessman.

"Don't be stunned Adele, I'll remember the five Jincid for you, go quickly." Donnasius urged, and then added, "It's okay to save people, but it's best to ensure the safety of the caravan, understand?" ”

"The premise of the caravan's safety is not to take the initiative to cause trouble."

The phrase only lingered in Adair's mind for a moment before disappearing, and he sighed, then nodded.
