Chapter 18: Bandits
No matter how fast the panda goes, it will not be possible to get from the town of Galil to the city of Tarakhan in one day.
At the beginning of the game, if you didn't use the teleportation array, it would take more than half an hour to walk just by walking. From Kalipura to Firuman village, it only takes a maximum of ten minutes.
Even taking into account the fact that walking in the forest is greatly hindered, the distance between the two sides is at least four or five days.
It was getting dark, but the panda didn't stop and continued to walk in the night.
In this world, it's dangerous to travel all night. Both in the game and in reality, the probability of beasts and monsters appearing at night is much higher than during the day.
And...... In addition to beasts and monsters, something else will appear.
For example, in a clearing on the side of the road in front of us, a group of people are lighting a bonfire to barbecue meat.
They wore thick clothes that were very different from ordinary civilians, and almost all of them were wrapped in nitro hides, which were not comfortable to wear, but were sturdy and could provide good defense. Two of them were stronger, wearing rudimentary leather armor, and were clearly the leaders.
The most distinctive feature of this group is that each of them carries a weapon with him, some with swords, some with spears and spears, and some with bows on their backs. Although they were resting, their weapons did not leave their bodies at all, and even if they were sitting on the ground, they kept them within reach of their hands, and it was obvious that they were ready to fight at any time.
Maybe it's fighting beasts, maybe it's fighting monsters, or maybe it's ...... It's fighting people.
The panda stopped and watched them.
He knows this group of people, or rather, he knows this kind of people.
In the game, this is called "Bandit Camp".
There are two types of bandit camps, one is temporary and the other is permanent. The latter tend to be dungeons, while the former are a group of monsters that spawn out temporarily. In terms of strength, of course, the latter is stronger, but this does not mean that the former is a harmless little sheep to humans and animals.
It is not uncommon for novices to encounter a bandit camp when they are on a night road, and then be slashed back to the city by a group of bandits. When Panda was playing games, he encountered this kind of thing more than once.
The bandit camp is disgusting and always refreshes on the side of the road. Their alert range is very large, and it is absolutely impossible to get around it from the road. And leave the main road at night...... No one can say which is more lethal than challenging the bandit camp.
So when everyone was a novice, there was often a bandit camp on the side of the road that could block the way of the entire village and even the town's players. Unless someone takes the lead and organizes a group of people to brush them, otherwise, everyone will honestly stay in the village to practice life skills and do patrol tasks.
Later, as the players became more and more powerful, the bandits in the novice area gradually became no longer a threat. But every time a new map is opened at a new level, this kind of roadside refreshed bandit camp will always cause players some trouble. So much so that many players complained on the forum: "How can a mere group of bandits be higher than those of us heroes who have traveled all over the world?
Thinking of this, the panda couldn't help but smile.
After laughing, he took a step and continued to walk forward.
After walking for a while, I gradually approached the bandit camp. The bandits stood up one after another, took their weapons in their hands, and led the leader to the road, blocking his way.
Seeing that one of the leaders wanted to say something, Panda spoke first and interrupted him.
"I'm in a hurry. "So don't talk nonsense, if you don't want to fight, get out of the way." ”
The bandits did not get out of the way.
The panda sneered, quickened his pace, and rushed straight towards them.
He was greeted by a tall bandit, armed with a large, chipped, rusty knife. If this knife were on Earth, I am afraid that it would be more terrifying than a sharp blade full of cold light.
If you are scratched by a rusty sharp object, you can easily get tetanus.
Of course, the panda didn't want to be stabbed, so before the big knife could be slashed, he had already moved sideways, both dodging the knife and closing the distance between them.
Then he stood up like a knife and slashed his palm into the bandit's right hand.
The hand knife is not sharp, but it is enough to defeat the enemy. The bandit's right hand was hit by this blow, and it hurt so much that he couldn't hold the weapon at all, and the broadsword fell to the ground.
Before the big knife landed, the panda had already rushed to the distance of him, grabbed his collar with his right hand, grabbed his belt with his left hand, and lifted him up and lifted him above his head.
"Do you want to fight?" Holding a large living man, the panda looked around and said to the bandits, who were visibly intimidated, "I don't want to kill more, but I don't mind killing either." ”
"Remind you of one thing, my style of doing things is - if you see blood, you have to kill it!"
As he spoke, Sen Ran's murderous aura spread, making the night that was already approaching late autumn even colder.
The bandits turned their gaze to the leader, and the two leaders looked at each other, one backward and the other forward. The one who retreated took the bow off his back.
The panda sighed, exerted his arms, and smashed the bandit he was holding as a stone at the enemy.
The bandits never expected that their accomplices would turn into throwing weapons, and they were a little flustered. Some people wanted to catch it, some people wanted to dodge, and the originally neat ring encirclement immediately became chaotic.
Moreover, when the two robbers threw down their weapons and tried to catch their accomplices, they found that the force of the throw was so great that they could not catch it at all. As a result, the three of them turned into rolling gourds together, fell to the ground and rolled into a piece.
By this time, the panda had already rushed into the bandits like a tiger descending from the mountain.
In the face of the bandits armed with sharp weapons, he had no fear, and he raised his fists and struck. The bandits' weapons are often dodged by him, but his fists are always on target.
His fists were so powerful that no matter whether the bandits were strong or thin, they would not even think of standing up again if they took a punch from him. He may not die on the spot, but if he wants to regain his combat effectiveness, he will not be able to do it in a short time.
However, even so, the panda was encircled. The so-called hero was defeated by both fists, and just a few seconds later, he was stabbed in the body.
Fortunately, he was wearing armor.
His armor was not the kind of heavy full-body armor that Changsun Wu looked like a tin can, but it was also not ordinary leather armor, it was an armor based on leather armor, with strong iron bars fixed to it with iron rings. Formally called slatted armor, this armor is heavy and strong, and its defense is very reliable.
According to the avid armor enthusiast Changsun Wu, the slatted armor is a kind of heavy armor with a long history, strong and reliable, which has been widely used as early as 2,000 years ago, and it was finally eliminated by chain mail that is not as strong as its own, and the key reason is that it is so heavy!
If this armor is only equipped with metal plates on the front and back of the body, it will have obvious holes in defense. And if these holes are also filled with armor pieces, the weight will become terrifying - Changsun Wu and their armor fighting club have tried to restore one, and the strongest guys in the entire club are exhausted and panting after wearing them, especially their shoulders hurt terribly.
But this kind of problem does not exist for the panda, his strength is strong enough, his physique is strong enough, and as a holy warrior, he also has the "heavy armor" skill, which can effectively reduce the burden of heavy armor on the body.
Therefore, walking and fighting in such heavy armor did not affect him at all.
This heavy armor can only bring despair to his enemies.
It's like the look on the face of the bandit who slashed at him with a knife and was bounced off by the armor.
