Volume 1 The Chaotic Order Chapter 37 The Prisoners of the Barracks (I)
None of the four people in the carriage answered, and Carrie was a little scared when she saw the other party's shiny green armor.
"Do I really need to ask again?" the man was not wearing a helmet, and his tough features kept reminding everyone that he was a warrior.
Avi ran Carrie's hair through the hair, "We are a family, this is my brother," he pointed to Fan, who was about to draw the iron gun, "This is my sister, he is the coachman we hire." Avi knew in his heart that Fan was impulsive and reckless, Carrie was frightened, and the coachman was not trustworthy, so he had to rise to the occasion and learn to tell the simplest lie himself.
"Hey, our prince is asking where you're going!" a cavalryman in the back roared loudly, like a fierce watchdog.
"Oh, we have come from the Oguna Empire to visit relatives in the Republic of Marver. Avi handed the map in the carriage to the other party, and pointed to the City of Honor, and then to the place of the Empire.
The young man in the green armor was Jack, the younger brother of the King of the Kingdom of Kosai, who was preparing to lead his troops to attack the Republic of Marvil, and he was particularly fond of patrolling at night, and he could already hear the sound of the carriage from a long distance.
Jack looked at the map.
At this moment, as if something terrible had suddenly occurred to the coachman, he swallowed his saliva fiercely, and suddenly pulled out a dagger from his waist and stabbed it directly into Jack's neck.
The moment Jack threw down the map, the coachman's dagger had already stabbed him in the throat, but the green armor on his body suddenly flashed, as if the three of them had seen it in the small hole in the carriage. But at this time, the green-armored man in the eyes of everyone had turned into a green-skinned demon, like a monster with wings, standing in front of him.
Although the coachman had been frightened by the sight in front of him, the sharp dagger in his hand still stuck into the other party, but the evil ghost in front of him was like a tangible mist, causing the coachman to stab in the air. In the next second, the coachman's neck was already held by the evil spirit, and his throat was instantly twisted like a tree branch.
The coachman did not close his eyes until he died, and his body collapsed there after his death. At this time, the big-nosed fan had already held the iron gun behind his back, but his hand couldn't help but tremble, and his whole arm couldn't exert his strength. Carrie, who was held in Avi's arms, cried again, her tears flowed along the tear stains just now to Avi's hands, like a frightened little white rabbit, without the slightest composure in front of the spar tomb.
Only Avi could see everything clearly, and it was probably the enchanted ring on his finger that played a role. Although he also saw a green-skinned monster in his eyes, he also saw the person standing behind the green-skinned monster, who was the warrior wearing green armor just now. That person was an entity, and that entity just stepped back for a moment to dodge the dagger that stabbed forward, and then let the green-skinned monster that he had conjured up reach out to grab people. All this strange power may have something to do with that green armor, could it be that armor is also a weapon of life?
The green-skinned monster soon disappeared without a trace, and Jack turned to the cavalry behind him and said, "Escort these three children back to me, and lock them up first," he picked up the coachman's body and threw it on the ground, "This man wants to kill me when he sees me, he must have a ghost in his heart, maybe he is a fugitive wanted by our country," Jack looked around at the night and said, "He will go here to the Republic of Marvil, he is very familiar with the terrain of our country, maybe there is some secret that cannot be heard."
Jack looked at the three people in the carriage again. In fact, he was only twenty years old, but compared to Fan, who was also twenty years old, Jack was much taller and stronger, and his body was already scarred by battle, so when his eyes saw the big nose Fan, the other party only felt an impenetrable wall of pressure pressing on him.
"I... We really... Just civilians. Carrie had calmed down from her fear, and although she was still sobbing a little when she said this, and although she was still holding Avi, she had already reacted. This man seems to be a soldier with status and honor, and he will not easily attack a civilian little girl. That's what Carrie thought in her heart.
And Avi immediately chimed in: "Yes, my lord, we are really civilians, this coachman was hired by us on the border of the Oguna Empire, and we didn't know that he would take us here and offend the general!" he said as he pointed to the sealed window inside the carriage, "We are also worried that he will be sold to human traffickers! My sister is only fifteen years old, how can she be a bad person." Carrie in Avi's arms had short hair and big eyes, and her little red nose added a little pity to her face.
Jack waved his hand and said, "Whether you are civilians or not, you will live in our barracks tonight until tomorrow," he closed his eyes and thought for a moment, "you should be released tomorrow evening, and we will let you go at the City of Honor." ”
Jack counted the time. He was about to lead the nearly 100,000 Kosai soldiers through the ruined city to attack the Republic of Marvil. With the help of traitors within the Marvel Republic, the castle that will be encountered first will surrender directly to meet the kingdom's army. Before everyone in the City of Honor had finished their lunch, they would see 100,000 soldiers of the Winter Kingdom descending on the city and seizing the capital of the Republic in one fell swoop.
After hearing that the other party had no intention of taking his own life, Fan and Carrie exchanged glances. There were both green-skinned monsters and several heavily armed light cavalry in front of them, and they would definitely kill themselves if they wanted to resist head-on, so the big-nosed fan also let go of the hand holding the iron spear and obediently surrendered.
The three men were tied to the horses of the hussars, and after about half an hour they were taken to the barracks stationed behind the hills.
"You'll be in your hands with these three men," said one of the light cavalrymen to the fat man in charge of the barracks prison, "That guy's knight's sword looks pretty good, I'll take it!" he reached out to pull the quenched knight's sword from Avi's waist.
"If you dare to touch my things, I'll crush your spirit. ”
The hussar looked at Avi and blinked. Did I have auditory hallucinations? He patted his ear and turned to look around, and there was no one else. He asked the prison man, "Were you just intimidating me?"
The fat man had just taken Fan's chain gun, and he was studying what the iron gun was different about. "Who intimidated you? I want this gun, you want that knight's sword," the fat man hid the iron spear behind him and glanced at Carrie and Avi, "What?!, are you interested in this little girl and boy?"
"you, do you think I'm a savage? I'll ask you if you just spoke to me!" the hussar had heard that sentence just now, as if a man was talking close to his ear. However, he looked at the three young boys and girls in front of him who were tied hand and foot, and he didn't feel anything wrong.
Avi also thought it was very strange, if this light cavalry wanted to take away his sword, he would be fine, anyway, everyone was caught, and it was a blessing not to hurt the body.
The hussar still decided to take the quenched knight's sword, and he reached for Avi's waist, and as soon as he touched the knight's sword, suddenly he saw a picture in his mind.
A man without a face held a very small crystal, and the man who didn't even have a mouth suddenly made a sound: "It's really a weak spirit, just crush it." ”
These were the words that the hussar heard when he was awake in his last life of mind. And the last image he saw in his mind was that the faceless man gently closed his palm and shattered the little crystal.
The fat man had been fiddling with the iron gun in his hand with his head down, and at this time Fan kicked him.
"Hey, look at your soldiers, like an idiot. ”
The fat man followed his gaze, and the light cavalry stood in front of Avi, but at this time his eyes were dilated, a large drop of saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth, and some "whimpering" sounds like animal calls came out of his mouth.
"Are you stupid?" the fat man nudged the hussars, but the other party did not react, like an idiot with a fever burning his brain.
The fat man hurriedly put down the iron gun and ran to the outside of the prison in the barracks, shouting as he ran: "There is a ghost! There is an evil guy here!" The fat man's heart was so panicked that he couldn't do it, because he already knew the legend of the ruined city nearby, so he didn't care about the three prisoners who were captured, and only ran to the crowded place by himself.
Avi had no idea what was going on with the guy standing in front of him, "Hey, did you cast some spell on him, and how did he become an idiot?" asked Bignose Fan, and Carrie just thought it was funny, she bit her lower lip with her teeth and kicked the hussar with her foot, but the other party didn't react at all. Avi didn't understand either, because although the quenched knight sword on his waist was finely crafted and the blade was sharp, it was just an ordinary weapon, how could this person become a mentally retarded person when he touched it.
"I don't know, is there really a ghost here?, could he be hooked by a ghost?!" Avi had been wearing the enchanted ring, so although his heart was as calm as water, he still imagined something terrifying.
"Scare me again!" Carrie had already wiped the tears off her face, but the ugliness she made in front of Fan and Avi this time was estimated to be impossible to "wipe off" for a while.
"Don't think about it, let's find a way to escape from here quickly!" Fan just now kept rubbing the hemp rope that tied his wrist, trying to break free, "Although they said they wouldn't kill us now, but I found that there are too many troops here since I entered the barracks, and I guess we have to go to war," he used his bound feet to clinch the iron spear that the fat man threw next to him, "Even if we don't get killed, we will die in the chaos, and no one will save us." ”
Avi felt the same way when he heard this, after all, he had tried the feeling of being embraced by death in prison, so he also joined the team of grinding ropes.
