Chapter 82: The Sentry Post

Suta has been lying here for almost a night, and a trace of morning light has slowly begun to appear in the sky, and he still hasn't thought of how to pass the checkpoint silently, and now if he doesn't hurry up, when the sky is completely bright, the fog will disperse, no matter how good his disguise is, there is also the possibility of being discovered, and then he can only retreat and wait for another opportunity.

However, although the sentry on the opposite sentry card has begun to slowly doze off, but the other sentry has not relaxed his vigilance at all, in fact, if it were not for a small mistake in the second half of the night, Suta would not necessarily find the existence of a dark sentry not far from him, but now it is because of the existence of this dark sentry that Suta can only stay motionless here.

When he learned that a huge change had occurred in Scanning, he ignored his unhealed body, and did not inform Heather and the others, so he rode a war horse and ran out of a manor house in the western province of Kensas from Mrs. Celli, and rushed straight in the direction of Ending City.

There are two main ways to get north from the west of Kensas to Scandhar, one of which is through the Golden Lion, the territory of Earl Harold, and after passing through the Golden Lion, it is slightly northwest and can be reached in less than a day on horseback.

The other is to go north to Curtain City through Yezi Town, but Yezi Town is much farther than Golden Lion City, mainly because of the detour, after going north from Yezi Town, it will take 2 and a half days to reach Ending City even if you ride a horse.

Although he Suta is not a particularly famous celebrity, the title of [Hunter] still has a certain reputation in Scandner Province, after all, as one of the 5 squadron leaders in Ending City, although his strength is not the strongest, he is definitely the most difficult!

Now Count Mexs and Count Harold are almost in a fight, and he, as the squadron leader of the security brigade, must be the same as Viscount House, firmly standing on the side of Count Mex, so if he appears in the Golden Lion City, it is estimated that it is very likely that he will not see the sunrise the next day, so Suta did not hesitate to walk towards the second road, Yezi Town.

But when Suta arrived at Yez Town, he was still a step late, and when he tried to pass through Yez Town, he found that he didn't know when Yez Town had been completely occupied by the bold Count Harold.

There were even checkpoints set up at intervals on the road south to the westward province of Kensas, and finally on this short road, a whole three checkpoints were arranged, and all those who wanted to pass through this road had to go through the checkpoints.

Sutar affirmed that when he left from here five days ago, he had not noticed any checkpoints on this side, and in just four or five days, the road in Yez had been blocked, and Harold's men had set up a simple watchtower on this road.

The checkpoints are not large, but the foundations are made of boulders brought from the quarries near Yezi Town, and then equipped with huge logs mined from the mountains, but after simply removing the branches, they are inserted directly into the soil, one next to the other as a city wall, and in the middle of the building is a wooden watchtower more than 20 feet high, on which archers are used to monitor the work 24 hours a day.

However, Harold's people estimated that in order to save time, neither the boulder nor the log did any processing, and the final construction of the outpost had a bit of a rough feeling of wilderness architecture in the far west of the continent.

After Suta's observation overnight, he found that although the outpost in front of him was simple to build, the actual defense was not weak at all, not only some simple but practical fortifications such as antlers and trenches were built around the outpost, but also the trench dug around the outpost was filled with various barbs.

In addition, each outpost has arranged a small team (10 people) stationed in the outpost, although the number is not large, but the members of the detachment have a reasonable professional match, and the ability to cooperate with each other is also very strong! It is impossible to have such a number of enemies, but if the enemy is only a scale of less than 100 people, as long as there is no knight-level powerhouse, they are sure to block it for a while, even if there are knight-level powerhouses, they have enough time to use the fireworks to warn Yezi Town.

"If you really have no choice, you can only break in. Suta thought so in his heart, first looking for an opportunity to kill the outpost, and then deal with the others, as for whether he would be discovered by the enemies in Yezi Town, it was no longer a matter of care.

As Sutar was thinking about how to quickly break through the checkpoint, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the south of the checkpoint, in the direction of the westbound province of Kensas.

The sound of "Kick Kick, Kick Kick!" was getting closer and closer, not only Suta, but also the loud sound of horses' hooves even the sentry on the checkpoint, who was about to fall asleep, woke up, and looked in the direction of the south, wanting to see who had woken him up so early in the morning, and if this person wanted to pass the checkpoint, he must be slaughtered once.

Soon the sentry saw the person who had woken him up, and the thin mist could not stop the momentum of the person who came, and he saw a knight dressed in solid armor like a legendary ancient giant, holding a huge two-handed battle axe in his right hand, and a heavy tower shield in his left hand, and then riding a war horse and charging wildly towards the position of the sentry post!

At this time, the sentry didn't know what was happening, so he shouted loudly by the throat: "Enemy attack!"

It's a pity that the knight on the opposite side only raised the tower shield in his left hand slightly, and the arrows shot by the sentry were blown out by the tower shield projectile, without causing any damage to the opponent.

The sentry did not hurt the knight in front of him until he shot the bow and arrows in the quiver, but let the knight on the opposite side easily run to the sentry card from a distance, but what made the sentry a little more reassuring was that there were a lot of messy antlers in front of the trench, but the antlers were half buried in the earth, so that ordinary war horses would never be able to jump over, so that even if the knight in front of him was strong, there was no way to break through to the sentry post!

The only thing that did not have antlers was the main gate where the sentry post hoisted the wooden bridge at the entrance and exit with a simple noose, and the knight in front of him was charging towards the main gate, but even if there were no antlers, although the circle of trenches around the wooden wall was not deep, the trenches were filled with all kinds of barbs, which were also impassable.
