Chapter 290, Ambush
"Boss, there's a new directive from above. A man dressed in an ordinary farmer's cloth flashed into the woods on the side of the road and said to a pile of weeds.
"Boom. The weeds trembled, and several people with bundles of grass appeared!
One of the 'straw men' took the secret letter in the other party's hand and showed a happy expression on his face after reading it!"Great! The Legion Commander has a new order, asking us to rob and kill a batch of goods from the Iron and Blood Chamber of Commerce! And this batch of goods happens to pass through our area!"
Another 'straw man' asked puzzledly, "Boss, behind the Iron Blood Chamber of Commerce is the Salam family, why do we want to rob and kill their goods?" It is estimated that the strength of the other party's guards will definitely not be weak. ”
The man known as the leader said, "I don't care if the Salam family or the Atisha family is behind him, I just know that after we complete the mission, each of us will be rewarded with a complete set of intermediate enchanted equipment!"
"A complete set!" "Everyone!" The 'straw men' behind him were excited! Yes, come out and kill bandits and thieves by yourself, and go back at most with a primary enchanted weapon per person, and if you can complete the task, each person will have a complete set of intermediate enchanted equipment!
It is 700 miles away from the Imperial City of Emma.
The surrounding hills were full of low trees, and there was only one avenue that had been walked out by the caravan and made its way down the winding hills.
A caravan of more than 100 people waved a big 'iron blood' banner, and more than 20 dragon horses and beasts pulled heavy iron wooden boxes, and the rutted road was pressed out of a deep rut mark!
"Ahead is Huya Mountain, where there is a gang of robbers who have been entrenched all year round, but I have walked through here at least a dozen times, as long as I pay some gold coins, I can pass safely. The old coachman who was in charge of leading the way said confidently.
A middle-aged man in a black warrior suit had a big knife hanging from his waist, and said with a slightly dissatisfied face: "If it weren't for the fact that this batch of goods is more important, I would still be afraid of a group of robbers!
"Hehe, if those robbers knew that there was King Crewu here, where would they dare to block the way, they would have run away a long time ago. The silver-armored warrior next to him smiled.
"Hahaha, that's that, with Lord Crevul here, I'm afraid we won't need to do it all the way. Others chimed in.
Although the side children of the Salam family are not very valued in the family, among this group of ordinary chamber of commerce members, they can be regarded as the top of the sky! Everyone waited carefully along the way, for fear of offending each other.
"Oh no! no! There's a situation ahead!" shouted the pathfinder in front.
Clay grabbed the other party's collar and said, "What's wrong?!"
The spy coughed and said, "Ahead... There's a bunch of dead people up ahead!"
"Hmph! What is there to be afraid of the dead! I'll take a look. Clay pushed the spies away, pulled out his long knife, and stepped forward. I saw Huya Mountain in front of me, because the two mountains are relatively sharp, as if two tiger teeth are together, and there is a small path in the middle, which is called Huya Mountain by people! At this time, dozens of corpses are piled up in the middle of the road!
Clay looked around, but found nothing, and then came to the corpse, and the smell of blood was permeating, and in this hot day, it was faintly stinking, Clay blocked his nose with his sleeve, and shouted to the back, "Someone remove these corpses!" ”
The convoy came to a halt, and a dozen warriors came over, covering their noses with strips of cloth, and began to lift the corpses.
The old coachman who led the team looked a little ugly and said, "These are the robbers of Huya Mountain!" I think we should retreat first, and then continue to walk after finding out the situation ahead. ”
"Hmph, isn't it just the death of a group of robbers! What is there to worry about, we must hurry, otherwise we will miss the trading time, and no one will be able to bear this responsibility!" said Clay, glaring at the old coachman dissatisfiedly.
"Uh!!", "Ah!!h Suddenly, the warriors who moved the corpses covered their necks one by one, and all of them fell to the ground, and in less than half a minute, everyone foamed at the mouth and died in convulsions!
"It's... Let's hurry back!" said the old coachman, fearfully.
"Wait!" Clay looked vigilantly at the hill ahead of him where there might be an ambush, but did not notice a single person. "There is no ambush on the mountain at all, maybe those corpses were poisoned to death, they were just unlucky to come across poisonous blood, this poison is really powerful, and if you touch it, you will kill you! You guys, put on gloves and go up and remove all the corpses! I will open the way in front and continue to hurry!" Clay confidently analyzed.
The seven or eight people who were ordered were forced to put on gloves and go forward to move the corpses, but unfortunately the poison was hidden in the previous robbers, and it was transmitted through breathing, and the seven or eight people moved for a while, and all of them foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground.
"Damn! Fighting Skills! Thunderbolt Slash!" A thunderball martial spirit appeared above Clay's head, and the long knife thunderbolt flashed, turning into a white lightning ray, slashing and sweeping all the corpses on the road! "Everyone be vigilant and keep moving!" Clay shouted as he walked at the front.
Clay's lightning fighting skills were just in time to cleanse the air of toxins, and the convoy began to follow Clay and began to move on, entering the narrow path of the Huya Mountain Stream.
On both sides of the mountain, one by one, the 'straw men' waited for the captain's order, and when a burst of ape cries sounded, suddenly hundreds of straw men appeared on the mountain, and one by one they threw down the poisonous mist balls, and for a time the whole mountain stream was filled with poisonous fog!
"Shoot the arrows!" the squad leader ordered. All the straw men picked up their black war bows from the grass on the ground, and "whoosh!" Countless black arrow feathers flew down! With the strength of the warrior's arm, the arrow feathers shot out were like falling steel arrows! The warrior wearing leather armor was shot through directly! The dragon horse beast in the convoy was also shot into a hornet's nest!
"Where's the night mouse, there's a kind of fight!" Clay slashed with a long knife and slashed out an astonishing thunderbolt.
"Hurry back!" More than a dozen straw men were startled, and hurriedly jumped down the mountain more than ten meters high without hesitation! If they didn't jump, they would be struck by Lei Mang, and they would definitely not survive!
"Release the magic scroll!" The team leader knew that ordinary attacks such as arrow disease were ineffective against the Martial King, and even the opponent's body protection qi could not be broken! Although the team leader's magic scrolls were only low-level magic such as first-level fireball techniques and icicle techniques, they could also cause some trouble to the Martial King!
Fireballs and icicles hit him, and Clay, who wanted to continue slashing towards the mountain, had to swing his sword to block these magical attacks!
"Shoot the net!"
Ten straw men stood up, holding strange wooden cylinder devices in their hands, aiming at Clay, and in an instant, large nets with barbs flew out and shrouded Clay in all directions!
"Damn!ah!" Clay cursed and slashed a large net into pieces, but the remaining large nets shrouded him in it, and instantly rolled into a ball, so that Clay could not stand in the condensed Fighting Qi Void and fell!(More than 400 are recommended this week.) )
