Chapter Twenty-Seven: Finding the Holy King's Emblem

After an afternoon, the trio finally arrived at the vicinity of Ellerdeg after a quick ride in the jungle, but as the terrain gradually became potholed and they had to climb the mountain, they had to tie their horses to the end of the jungle and continue on foot to their destination.

Soon after, they came to a high plateau, and in the valley there was a sound of horses' hooves, it was a unique group of chainmail cavalry, without the insignia of the regular army of the kingdom, uniformly equipped with black chain mail, iron helmets, fast horses, and light but lethal weapons, like scouts of some force.

With the first impression of these scouts, the Ten Guards asked the executors for news: "Rolf, do you know which country these guys are soldiers?"

"They are not regular armies, the Holy Cult has known all aspects of the Calradia kingdom for hundreds of years, the cavalry of Ryrdian is a heavy knight, and the Kugit is a steppe hussar, although the Kingdom of Vegia has chainmail cavalry, it is impossible to venture to the hinterland of Ryrdian. Rolf analyzed it and was sure that the scouts were not the kingdom's army.

At this moment, a huge procession of gray-robed walkers appeared on the other side of the valley, it was none other than the disgusting dark believers, and one of the pilgrims ran to the cavalry and said something to one of the cavalry leaders, and the cavalry leader ordered everyone to move forward and quickly disappear at the end of the valley......

"The Eagle Dogs of the Drua Order! Looks like these guys are going for the Holy King's relics, we need to stop them as soon as possible!" Rolf was furious, and with one foot smashed the foundation on the edge of the cliff, and the three of them slid straight down......

In less than ten minutes, the trio arrived at the center of the village of Al Deig, which had lost its breath of life, and as the buildings of the village were set on fire, the villagers were killed, and the bodies of several villagers hung from the branches of a tree not far away, and the blood and ashes were everywhere in their eyes.

On this day, Trevo was already resentful, and when he went to a nearby well to get water to put out the fire, he found that the well was already full of dead bodies. In a fit of rage, he smashed the well with a single whip.

"Their deeds are even more disgusting than those of fanatical believers!

In order to prevent him from doing something stupid, the Ten Guards calmed the enraged Trevor, and said weakly: "The other side is a heavily armed cavalry team, and there are only three of us ......"

Rolf also decided to focus on the task, took out a map of the nearby area, pointed to a coordinate on the back mountain, and said: "Ji Shibei is right, we still need to find the Saint King's Hero Badge first, look at the current situation, they are also here to search, we must get it before them......"

"Are you sure this is a treasure cave?" Trevor also delved into the map, but thought it was more likely that it was a warehouse.

"So what...... We don't have a clue now, we can only take it one step at a time!"

At Rolf's insistence, the three of them climbed the mountain behind Elledeig, located in the westernmost rocky part of Bajicht, enough to overlook Elledeig, and even the height of the village of Yerege in the distance, and searched for a while on the scenic high slopes, and finally came to the storage point shown on the map, but the road was much longer than the map indicated......

As they expected, the Drua scouts had arrived before them, but they had not only recently arrived, but the cavalry leader had ordered the door of the cave to be pried open and his cavalry to enter the narrow passage of the cave.

Due to the negligence of the other party, the three of them crawled forward to a position where they could hear what was being said on the other side, only to hear one of the dark pilgrims say: "This cave is a salt mine, there is nothing but salt and pickled fish, what the Order is looking for cannot be miscellaneous items littered everywhere, right?"

The leader of the black cavalry picked up the gun in his hand and struck it on the man's head, and said angrily: "That's a holy thing, you dare to call it 'something'? I and other dark hunters directly under the Drua Order would not dare to be so presumptuous!"

"What you're teaching ...... What you're teaching is ...... We'll continue to look for ...... in the mines" The fanatical believers nodded their heads towards the Dark Hunters, which also shows that there is a strong sense of class within the Drua Order.

"Then keep looking! Don't talk nonsense here! We'll go back to the village and wait for your news, and if dusk doesn't bear fruit, then leave your head. "These formidable dark hunters were particularly threatening for a while before leaving, and then mounted their horses and descended the relatively gentle mountain path, leaving the pilgrims to continue their search.

After what he had just seen, Rolf whispered to the other two: "If it weren't for this, then there would be no other caves in Al Deig, the badge is a holy relic, it must be hidden in an unexpected place, it must be in the village, kill these guys and go to the village to find it......"

Ten Guards and Trevor agreed, and when the cavalry disappeared from view, the three of them rose and rushed directly to the Dark Pilgrims, only to be stopped by Trevor before a massacre, explaining, "We need some camouflage and no blood......"

Rolf patted Jubei on the shoulder, hung the greatsword back on the buckle on his back, and motioned for Trevor to perform alone.

When the believers noticed Trevor coming towards them, they had not yet thought of fighting, but Trevor did not care if his opponent was ready, and whipped every pilgrim in an instant, and the enemies who were hit by the powerful whip fell unconscious.

"It's so powerful, I actually relied on the toughness of the leather whip to directly break their internal organs!" After sighing with emotion, the ten guards took off the pilgrim's pilgrim clothes and put on a hood, and when Rolf and Trevor were also disguised, the three of them walked down the mountain together.

Back in the village, the group of Dark Hunters rested against the ruins wall, armed with weapons in hand. It can be seen that they are very well trained and seem to be very vigilant......

Rolf motioned for his partner to stop, and walked over to the Dark Hunters, reaching for the hilt of the sword under the cloak.

"Gentlemen, I ......"

"Have you found anything?" one of the hunters interrupted unceremoniously, brandishing his sword haughtily and pointing at Rolf.

"Our people are still searching in the mountains, and they just think that the treasure may be somewhere in the village, so come back and inform ......"

Another hunter walked over, snatched the sword from the previous one's hand, and said, "You have some truth in what you say, so where do you think the badge might be hidden?"

He fully confirmed his suspicions, and the other party was indeed coming for the hero badge, so he planned to use these enemies to find the badge together.

"The treasure must be hidden in a secret room or something, but there is no dark room found in the village, only underground. ”

"Where's the entrance to the underground, and if you can't find it, I'll let you walk around without food!" scolded the hunter angrily.
