Volume 2: The Mercenary's Revenge Chapter 75: The Empire (5) The Terror of the Thorny Forest

Because the Imperial Capital Arena is located in the suburbs, it is surrounded by dense forests, which are basically the kind of places that are inaccessible, and because of the large waves of angry poor people chasing and beating fiercely, a large part of the nobles have fled into the dense forests in a panic. In this thorny forest where you can't see your fingers, these nobles who don't touch the spring water with their fingers on weekdays have completely become a flock of frightened lambs, screaming and scurrying............

The thorn forest, as the name suggests, is a place full of thorns, these luxuriously dressed upper-class people must have been frightened and tortured when they strayed into this place, those seemingly gorgeous clothes could not withstand the scratching of thorns at all, and they were torn into rags in a few clicks, and the various insects that lived in the forest seemed to smell the fragrance of their prey at this moment, and they all broke through the ground one by one, and flocked to this group of strangers who had broken in by mistake by night.

The garrison of the royal city only received the news at midnight, because the arena and the royal city were far away, so the security services for the arena were all newly trained recruits, and none of the guards were involved in the security, and they were still on duty according to the rotation. If it weren't for the captain of the garrison who changed shifts at midnight and found that the number of people was wrong, it is estimated that this group of garrisons would not have arrived at the arena so quickly.

The leader is the commander of the garrison of Wangcheng on duty tonight, a middle-aged man who has been in the army for more than ten years, because the garrison of Wangcheng does not participate in any foreign wars, so he has been running back and forth between the two points and lines of the city gate ---and his home for the past ten years. The city gate guard was depressed and depressed, and the years of duty had made him extremely depressed and anxious, and now suddenly the news of a major riot came from the arena, which made him excited, and he left only a few guards to guard the city gate, and the remaining hundreds were taken to the arena.

"Report, marks were found in the dense forest, suspected human footprints. A garrison reported.

Hasr was overjoyed to hear this, no matter who was hiding in the dense forest, he could make a great contribution, and finally saw the light of day when he was transferred out of the damned city gate.

"Send someone in and search!"

"Captain, this thorn forest looks very dangerous, why don't you wait until dawn to enter it!"

Hasir was furious when he heard this, and when the Tianming Imperial City patrol came, he not only did not take any credit but also did not estimate that he would be held jointly and severally responsible.

"When the morning dawns, you, I'll wait to lose my head!" said John, and with nearly a hundred people, he stepped into the thorn forest.

The originally dark dense forest suddenly brightened up a lot under the reflection of the firelight, and those bushes of thorns densely blocked the eyes of the garrison, and there were hundreds of tiny barbs growing on each thin branch, which contained highly poisonous poison at a glance, and if a person was accidentally stabbed, it was estimated that he would fall to the ground and die in a short time.

"Captain, look!" The garrison on the side spotted a clump of thorns that had been overpowered, and the signs of overpowering should have been forcibly stepped on by the crowd.

"Everyone infiltrated in two teams, one team with knives and axes to open the way, and the second team with fire sticks to illuminate. Hasr arranged it in an orderly manner, and in his opinion, as long as he found someone hiding in the dense forest, he could use it to ask His Majesty for credit, no matter what his identity was.

A large area of thorn forest was cut down, but what appeared in front of them was another large thorn forest, and this layer after layer of dense thorn forest was a miserable toss for this group of garrisons, and Hasr had to change the formation, and the fire stick hand and the sword and axe hand changed positions

Continued to move forward, but the results don't seem to be particularly good.

Countless flies and insects flew out of the forest under the reflection of the firelight, gathered densely, the black stuff hanging in the air made the garrison frightened, the buzzing sound tormented these warriors who went deep into the thorn forest all the time, and the snakes and insects hidden in the jungle also seemed to have found new prey, and gathered over.

"Captain, beware!" a guard behind him struck a flying poisonous insect with a torch, and the scattered poisonous juice spilled on the ground, and there were bursts of white smoke.

"Be careful, the flying insects here are all poisonous!" Hasr didn't mean to give up, after all, his future glory and wealth were pointed to this time.

"Ah!!h

The old and tall bag with swollen feet looked very terrifying, especially the faint green in the bag was even more chilling, a green snake slipped into the thorns, leaving only the slumped warrior to the ground to howl, the heart-rending sound made the entire garrison fearful.

"Captain, you can't go any further, the brothers really can't bear it!" Looking at the painful howl of his brothers, the deputy captain of the garrison said distressedly.

The snakes and insects are haunted like ghosts, preying on the turtles in the urn in this natural hunting ground. The bald birds hovering in mid-air are another group of predators, after seeing the wounded who fell to the ground, they immediately swooped down from mid-air in groups, and the sharp claws often hit the wounded with a single impact, which also caused the blood to flow from the garrisons who fell to the ground, if it were not for the remaining team members to protect them, I was afraid that in a few minutes those injured garrisons would become white bones.

"Withdraw, call for help from the patrols, or we'll die here!"

Hasr looked at the over-frightened warriors under him, and his original fanatical heart gradually cooled down at this moment, forget it! It seems that God will not help me, "Withdraw!" Hasr said weakly.

In fact, as long as the garrison passes through the thorn forest in front of them, they will find a large number of evasive nobles, although they are already covered in bruises and dying, but it is better than returning empty-handed now, so sometimes the success or failure of a thing is really predestined, if God does not help you, even if success is in front of you, you will give up.

Yi Tian's crystal tears continued to open, and those annoying bald birds, snakes and insects had been circling around him, harassing them. Yi Tian knew that once his protective shield disappeared, they would definitely rush up and eat themselves, which was terrifying to think about. In fact, since he found out that the garrison had entered this thorn forest, he had been silently praying that they would exit as soon as possible, after all, he didn't want to be discovered by the garrison, which would make everything troublesome. Yi Tian also thought about going around from another exit, but in this thorn forest full of dangers, the best way is to return the same way, so Yi Tian was very happy when he saw the group of garrisons retreating, and since the garrison retreated, the original fire reflecting the dense forest disappeared, which also made some of the flies return to their nests, which also indirectly made Yi Tian feel a little easier

After all, the buzzing sound lingers in your ears all the time, and it will make people crazy.

Hasr counted the number of people after exiting the Thorn Forest, and the results surprised him, a total of 120 soldiers were brought in, and now less than 100 have been withdrawn, and nearly 30 of them have been injured to varying degrees, which is a bit unbearable for Hasir.

"You take a few people to the patrol at the north gate to report the situation first, the wounded soldiers are gathered here, and the rest of the soldiers are deployed in the outer circle with me in case of emergency. ”

"Yes!" the deputy team galloped away in the direction of the imperial capital with a few soldiers.

Early in the morning, the people in the imperial capital city got up one after another and began to prepare for the new day's food and clothing. The sun had not yet fully risen, but the morning glow had already illuminated the whole city of Remet, the roosters and dogs were gradually ringing out, the smoke was gradually rising, there were already sporadic figures walking around on the central avenue, the cries of selling were gradually sounding in turn, and the tempting smell of breakfast made the stomachs of those who got up early growl.

Winter has come to an end, the morning sun slowly rises from afar, the bright red and golden morning glow gilded the Imperial Capital Arena with a layer of bright yellow, and the swaying thorn forest seems to be decorated with golden yellow at this moment, which is very dazzling in this beautiful morning light.

A soldier in full light armor was counting the number of wounded, the names of the wounded rescued from the thorn forest last night were densely written on the notebook, and in a large square in front of him, a group of ragged rich merchants and nobles were lying sideways one after another, from their hideous expressions and constant moaning screams, it was enough to see that they had not been comfortable last night.

"Report, at this time the inventory of the roster. ”

As the temporary chief of patrol, this is the first major event since Sick took office, he has not closed his eyes since midnight yesterday, the huge pressure has made him have to work overnight, originally as the temporary patrol chief he has no chance to turn positive, but the current incident of the poor riot has given him an excellent opportunity, he intends to seize this opportunity to make himself to the next level. The former patrol chief Klinciman was different from him, his position as deputy patrol commander was fought with blood and tears with a knife and a gun, and the aristocratic boy relied on his father's relationship to parachute the patrol team and snatched the position that should have belonged to him, which also made Sick always hold a grudge against Klinciman, and as soon as he heard that Seaman was seriously injured and bedridden, Sick felt a burst of joy in his heart.

"You take care of the scene here, and I'll report to the Emperor. ”

Although Sass the Great lives in the underground palace all the year round, any wind and grass in the imperial capital can not escape his eyes.

"Tell me, what was the riot like last night?"

"The Emperor has now ascertained that last night's riot was caused by the malicious blockage of the entrance and exit by some nobles who arrived late, so that a large number of poor people returning home could not pass in time, and they began to riot under the pressure of insults and garrisons. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, those poor people have been exploited by the nobles on weekdays, and it is understandable that they can't restrain their emotions under high pressure, I suggest ............"

"Your Majesty, this trend must not be fostered! Once this riot is reduced to a small matter, the poor people will be even more unscrupulous in the future, and it will be more difficult to control it at that time. ”
