Chapter 19: Kill!
The people in the distance were the same soldiers who had escaped from the enemy! They also saw Jason and the others from a distance, there were only five or six people, and there were horses by their side!
If they can get back soon, they might even be able to get reinforcements, or have the adults negotiate with the Iron Fang to rescue Lord Hodge!
But what nobleman would dare to risk being hostile to the entire aristocratic class by admitting that he had sent troops to plunder another nobleman's territory for no reason? If this matter was exposed, he might be sent directly to the aristocratic court, and even the people behind him would not be able to protect him!
If these soldiers return to their lord for help, they will most likely be killed! He will even send assassins to assassinate the Hodge Knight in order to kill him! The same knight who was captured by Lancelot!
Knowing this, the Hodge Knight let them flee back to their homeland, instead of seeking the help of their own lord!
Alexis, who was protected by Jason, was a little confused at first, watching everyone pull out their weapons in a daze, and then seeing the enemy running in the distance, she was instantly excited!
"Let Alexis join the fight!" she begged excitedly, tugging at Jason's clothes!
Is this really a girl? Why are you so interested in fighting and killing? The corners of Jason's mouth twitched.
"Hold your own weapon and protect yourself in the back!" Jason ordered, although Alexis is very powerful, Jason doesn't want to risk it!
Alexis pulled out his two-handed sword and puffed out his little face again, but it was sweet in his heart, it felt good to have family!
It's not that he doesn't want to get on his horse and run away, but he's not sure if the other party has an archer!
It's a pity that the security guards around him didn't carry bows and arrows, otherwise they would have broken in half before the person on the other side came!
The four vigilantes leaned forward and shielded themselves in front of them, revealing their eyes and staring at the enemy with a fierce gaze!
"There are only six of them! There are two children among them, and their identities may not be easy! Grab those two children and exchange them for Lord Hodge!" When the enemy got closer, he found that the other party's number was too small, and the equipment was not as good as those who attacked him!
And there are two children, looking at the posture of the four of them, the status of these two children may not be low! So they have another plan in their hearts! Catch them and exchange one of them for Lord Hodge, and the other as a hostage to protect themselves from the Iron Fang!
They were running very fast! Seeing that the two sides were about to make contact! Gary and the others widened their eyes, clenched their shields and leaned forward, their hands holding their swords were blue and their knuckles turned white!
"Kill!" the enemy roared, whether he survived and rescued Lord Hodge depends on the battle in front of him!
They did not despise Gary and the others because they were poorly equipped, but tried their best to kill them with one blow!
"Bang!" The shields on both sides collided together with a loud sound! Gary couldn't stand still because one leg was lame, and he fell to the ground! But as he fell, the sword in his hand cut through the gap between the enemy's shield and the ground, slashing one of his feet!
Gary, who was drenched in cold sweat, didn't have time to congratulate himself on escaping, and immediately secretly screamed that it was not good! Although he evaded the pursuit of others, he also exposed Jason and Alexis to the enemy!
I saw a strong man close to two meters standing in front of Jason, who was less than one meter seven, and the long sword in his hand stabbed him in the shoulder condescendingly, it didn't look like it hurt his life, he just wanted him to lose his resistance!
And Jason had already prepared for protection, the round steel shield in his hand blocked his upper body, his eyes were fixed on the long sword that stabbed at him, his brain was running rapidly, Lancelot's long-term devil training flashed quickly in Jason's mind! But he couldn't remember what he had trained at that time!
And in the eyes of outsiders, Jason is already scared stupid, and he doesn't even dare to move! Alexis wants to protect him, but is stopped by Jason, how can he accept an eleven-year-old girl risking her life to protect herself?
"Ah!!" Finally, Jason's mind went blank and he yelled! The round shield in his hand instinctively flicked to the left, blocking the big man's long sword, and the one-handed sword in his right hand was sent into his neck!
The big man's eyes widened, his sword fell to the ground, his hands covered his blood-spurting neck, his face full of disbelief!
Jason also fell to the ground as if he had collapsed, and Alexis behind him instantly jumped in front of him, raising the long sword in his hand, waiting for everyone as viciously as a little tiger!
"Die!" Lancelot finally arrived! He looked at Jason's body and roared angrily, and Arondette seemed to sense his anger as well, and let out a sword roar!
In an instant, the remaining six enemies were all shrouded in endless black sword rays, and they lost their lives!
"Please forgive me!" Seeing the enemy's ambush, Gary immediately limped to Jason to confess, after all, he was not well protected! Lancelot also knelt on one knee, encircled and suppressed, so that Jason was attacked, he could not escape the blame!
"Not guilty!" Jason didn't blame him, it wasn't his fault! After all, he had also eliminated an enemy, which made everyone's pressure less!
"Lancelot, get up, too! Deduct your three months' salary!" In front of so many people, Jason couldn't help but take a stand, so he gave a punishment that was not light or heavy in the eyes of everyone!
It seems that he is generous and fair, but they don't know that Lancelot has no salary at all!
"Thank you, sir!"
Lancelot wouldn't be stupid enough to expose Jason's words, so he answered so silently! Gary was grateful! With the other lords, his mistake just now was enough for him to go to the gallows!
"How's the situation over there?" Jason asked, sitting on the ground, the line between life and death just now really made him feel a little prostration!
Alexis sat next to him and helped him wipe the blood from his face, looking aggrieved, thinking that if Jason hadn't dragged her behind him, he wouldn't be in danger just now!
"It's under control, but there are some problems that you need to solve!" said Lancelot.
"Oh?" Jason gave him a puzzled look, he just wanted to end this side of the matter and see his side quest rewards now!
That's right, after he killed that big man, the system prompted him that he had completed the task!
"These people don't look like ordinary robbers, and there are more than a hundred of them!" said Lancelot, solemnly!
"Really?" Jason frowned, now in trouble!
"Tell me about it!"
"The enemy is more than a hundred men, well-trained and well-armed, and can be compared to the regular army of the nobility!" said Lancelot, pausing.
"There is also a knight powerhouse who is about to break through the Great Knight!"
"What?!" Jason was shocked! Send a strong knight to raid his territory? What kind of nobleman has such courage!
Moreover, the information obtained by the town government shows that there are only a few dozen rogues wreaking havoc in the Iron Fang Territory! How can it become more than a hundred, and it is still the strength of the regular army! This has to make Jason suspect that something is wrong with the town government!
"What are we going to do?" asked Lancelot.
"Take the people from the village and return to Irontooth Town!" Jason gave an order in an instant, since there may be ghosts in the town, then he can't let it go, the longer he and Lancelot come out, the more likely it is that something will happen!
"After returning to Iron Tooth Town, first send the clerk and a team of soldiers to the wasteland area to census the population and plan the residential area!"
"Was the knight captured alive?"
"Of course, sir!"
"Take me to the captive!"
"Let's see if we can pry some information out of his mouth!" Since he can run rampant around the Iron Tooth Collar without being known to Jason, and knows that the target of his trip is the Falconders, and wants to get rid of them in advance, then he must have a connection with the inner demons in the town!
Jason took a deep breath, what an eventful time!
