Chapter 21: The Parasite

"Boom", the heavy sound of horses' hooves, echoed over the wasteland, five pitch-black Wind Splitting Beasts, forming the shape of arrows, charged forward, the knights on horseback leaned down and clenched their spears, the top of the dark spears was sharp and sharp, and shimmered in the sunlight with a dark red shimmer.

Although in a charging pose, the knights were not too fast, as they needed to estimate the speed of the carriage behind them. The two fortress-like carriages followed behind the arrows one after the other, not only the horses pulling the carts had been trained for a long time, and they would not be afraid of the Wind Splitter Beast beside them, but the coachmen who drove were also experienced in battle, although they were ordinary people, but they had been following the knights to escort the mission all year round, and they had long been accustomed to facing all kinds of crises, even if they knew that the situation was not quite right, they were also fearless, and followed the knights all the way as if nothing happened.

As for Dark, the mercenary baron riding the Nightmare Beast is now fully in shape, like a black shadow, observing the road ahead at the front of the team one moment, and at the back of the team the next, guarding against possible attacks from the rear of the convoy. Nightmare Beast and Darkk are like natural best matches, and the two sides work together to get the most out of Dark's mobility as a knight.

Along the way, I still didn't encounter too many demonic beasts, until I saw the camp of the parasites from afar, and there were no demonic beasts to cause trouble. This completely violates the laws of the wilderness, even if the demonic beasts on the ground are smart enough to be shocked and avoided by the combat power of the knights, it is very abnormal that there are no large flying demonic beasts hovering in the sky. An empty wilderness like this close to the plains is the best hunting ground for flying monsters, especially in late autumn, which is the best season for hunting, and as a result, I didn't even see a flying monster, thinking with my toes, I knew that there was something wrong with it.

However, the leaders of the mercenaries and the client have stopped thinking about the problem of Warcraft now, the reason is very simple, there can only be one reason why Warcraft does not appear, that is, there is something that they are afraid of appearing nearby, or it is a powerful high-level Warcraft, or a large number of intelligent creatures with terrifying strength, or a natural phenomenon full of danger, no matter what it is, it can cause a crushing threat to their lives, which is enough to deter them and make them dare not approach nearby. Thinking about it, I haven't encountered any decent demonic beast communities from the Temple of the Gods, and the range of this 'nearby' is really a bit outrageous.

Now that you know the reason, of course, you can put aside the problem of Warcraft, Shuer and Dake have rich experience in leading the team, of course, you can see that the strange phenomenon that everyone is about to face is likely to be the root cause of the threat that Warcraft does not dare to approach, the origin of the solution, the problem of Warcraft is naturally solved, and if the origin cannot be solved, it is meaningless to entangle the problem of Warcraft.

What's more, now that the parasite's camp is close at hand, dealing with them is the most important thing now.

"Shure, change hands. Already visible of swaying figures running around the camp, Duck suddenly accelerated and rushed to the back carriage, "Liar, clichΓ©, this is your domain." ”

"In the name of the Lord, I would be a little happier if you said that you would negotiate and gather information. In the carriage, Shuer's voice floated out slowly, "Since you need the help of my employer, isn't it ...... in terms of honorarium?"

"Don't think I don't know, you will definitely pit us a lot in the end of this mission, although it is definitely a win-win result in the end, but our side will definitely grit our teeth with hatred, I can pretend not to see your malicious intentions, so ......"

"Deal. He admitted, he actually admitted it shamelessly, "But I have a request, I want command, not the command of your mercenary group, but yours." ”

"Uh......" Duck hesitated, of course he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask what the difference was between the two, the difference was too big, asking like this was insulting the IQs of both sides, he was just weighing the pros and cons, "I also have a request, my subordinates are not cannon fodder, no one is anyone, if you want to be cannon fodder, I'll come." ”

This time it was Shuer's turn to hesitate and be silent for a while before he whispered, "Okay, I'll treat them as partners." ”

"You promise?"

"In the name of the Lord. The standard priest replied, and one could imagine the holiness of Shur's face.

"No, I want you to be my sister. ”

"Do you want to duel? I've been beating you for a long time. ”

"Come on, I don't mind at all. Duck looked down and sniffed the metal rose in his hand.

"xxx", a few syllables that he didn't understand at all, it was obviously the language of Shure's homeland, and it was anything but pleasant, though, in the end he gave in, because he saw Lisa's smile, "Well, in Lisa's name, I promise." ”

"Alright, Dark Knight, Duck Sadhu, at your disposal. "Touching his chest with one hand and bowing on horseback," he said, "It's an honor to be able to fight side by side again." ”

"With the dark moon above, everything is a test for the Lord. ”

Although the deal was established, Shuer did not get out of the carriage, and Dack did not urge again, the two knew each other quite well, since the responsibility was handed over to Xiuer, then Shuer would take care of his own proportions, what to do, he knew better than anyone else, and it would be good for him to control all the scales.

So, even though the team had come to a halt at the edge of the camp, the travelers in the camp hurried to meet them, but Shul still didn't respond, and Darkk remained silent, and the six knights stood silently on the Wind Breaker and Nightmare Beast, looking down condescendingly at the panicked parasites below.

The parasites were nervous in their hearts, and the team in front of them was imposing, but the attitude of every black-armored knight was cold, and they had no willingness to communicate at all, which made them unable to say even if they had a million words in their hearts, so they could only stand far away from Ai Ai, and they didn't even dare to get close.

"In the holy name of the moon without light, the moon of darkness is with us. Observing the other party's attitude, Shul finally pushed open the door and walked out of the carriage slowly.

Hmm? Why did he change his clothes so quickly, wasn't he still in civilian clothes just now, why did he change into a holy robe? He rubbed in it, I'm afraid it wasn't to create a sense of oppression and mystery, just to change clothes. Fortunately, there is a mask to cover it, and the knights who know the inside story will not reveal the strangeness on their faces, which is gratifying.

As soon as he stepped out of the carriage, Shul immediately withdrew and stood on the left side of the carriage, respectfully extending his hand. A slender hand with black gloves stretched out from the carriage and placed it on Shure's arm, and Lisa, also dressed in a bishop's robe, walked out with noble and graceful steps.

"In the name of the Lord, with the mercy of the dark moon, I grant you peace of mind. Standing still on the ground, Lisa waved her little hand, and a faint light fell from the sky, sprinkled on each of the parasites who gathered around, and the frightened hearts of the parasites slowly calmed down, and their pale faces gradually revealed blood.

"Thank God for the gift. Many parasites knelt down directly, like drowning people who had grasped a life-saving straw, and stretched out their hands to the girl with a crying voice, "Please save us from the gods." ”

"Are there the wounded and the victims?" the girl's crisp voice seemed to come down from the sky.

The shadowchasers looked left and right, and one last shook their heads in unison.

So what about you, a group of ordinary people in the wilderness, not even injured, so that they were not attacked at all, and as for being frightened, tears are about to flow? Look at you, the great Lord Lisa faced danger when she was eight years old, and she is not as exaggerated as you.

In his heart, he frantically criticized the attitude of the parasites, but on the surface, Lisa still had a holy face: "The dark moon is above, this is the best news, may the Lord be with you and me." Since no one is hurt, then your Excellency, worldly affairs are left to you. ”

"As you wish, Archbishop, in the name of the moon, holy. ”

"In the name of the Lord, holy. ”

The brother and sister cooperated to make a sufficient gesture, so that these ordinary people who had been frightened for a day were full of reverence for the identities of the two, and Shuer walked in front of the crowd and looked at these panicked parasites.

Seventeen people, judging by the size of the camp, almost all of them are here, four bronze terraced ordinary mercenaries, looking at the equipment style, should be a fixed team, at least a few times have cooperated. Thirteen ordinary people, three women and ten men, the clothing and temperament are obvious, not a migrants who can't get along in a certain city, they should be going out to try their luck as a new traveling merchant, but if it is a traveling merchant, the size of the team is a little too big, wait, wait, look at what I found, definitely not a traveling merchant, at least not before.

"This lady, and this gentleman. His gaze swept over everyone's faces, and Shul had already made a judgment in his heart, and with a kind smile, Shull bowed slightly to a young woman in her twenties and a middle-aged man in his thirties beside her, "Excuse me, are the two of you the leaders of this team?"

"Huh? The two were stunned for a moment, and glanced at each other, the man subconsciously lowered his gaze, avoiding the woman's gaze, but it was the middle-aged man who answered, "We are just a team with the same goal and put together, and Miss Linda and I are temporarily responsible for the scheduling of the team." ”

And so it was.

It's really easy to guess, although a woman has an ordinary appearance and clothes that are no different from other people, but a person with knowledge in her stomach can't hide the bookish qi on her body, her speech and demeanor, or even just her standing posture, every detail will be exposed. As for men, although they are not as knowledgeable as women, they are obviously systematically educated, and they and women must know each other, and there is a certain gap in status.

After the team arrived, the two of them were also one of the few people who were not too afraid, at least they could hide their fear in their hearts, and things like reserve and city government were not just ordinary civilians.

The most important thing is that the two were not ostracized by others, which is very telling. In a team, if there is a special existence, it is easy to be subconsciously alienated and excluded by others after getting along, unless they are the leader, it is difficult to avoid.

Several details add up, and the status of the leaders of the two has been undoubtedly exposed.

"My lord willing, I have the privilege of meeting your leader. Shul drew a circle on his chest, full of sincere nonsense, "If you may, can you tell me what happened?"
