Chapter 8: Successfully Rescuing the Hostages

At noon, the sun was shining. Just like the longing of the big-eared monsters.

Under the strong sunlight, it seems that the entire mountain ground is glowing with a golden smell. When the big-eared monsters saw that yesterday's wrongdoers were coming towards their cottage, they all cheered as if they were celebrating a big festival.

The leader stood in front, his legs crossed in a majestic manner, his hands crossed over his waist. Although he hadn't slept at all all night, his energy was now overflowing from his eyes, glowing yellow.

He has always been excited about his feats. All the income of their group in the past ten years has accumulated about a dozen gold coins, but just a short time yesterday, he has obtained a thousand times the wealth with his sharp diplomatic skills. His achievements are enough to put any great man in history to shame.

Last night he had been thinking about the wealth he was about to hold. How much is 10,000 gold coins? One gold coin equals one hundred silver coins, one hundred silver coins equals one hundred copper coins, and one gold coin is... 10,000 copper coins. But how much is 10,000 .... A handful of copper coins is about thirty more, and 10,000 is... More than 300 handfuls! More than 300 handfuls.... It's enough to cover this cottage, but you have to add more than 9,999 more than 30 handfuls.... That's a sea of money. Even if you roll on it with your eyes closed, you won't worry about falling off, and you can eat beef every day when you get there.... It would be nice to have some beer.....

But I don't seem to see any caravan of horses carrying money like the ocean. There was something strange about the chief. "Where's the money?" As soon as the two men approached, he immediately walked up and asked eagerly.

"It's too much for us to take. This answer immediately conformed to the imagination of the mountain of money in the chief's mind, and he was immediately convinced. The human who had been here yesterday was looking left and right. "What about people?"

"It's still there, it's not hurt, don't worry. "The chief is in a hurry. "Then you should take some first. If you can't take the rest, we can move it. ”

"People are still locked up in the same place?" the man seemed to be very concerned about this. The leader nodded anxiously.

"That would be great. The man seemed to be surprised by the surprise, and turned around and walked straight in the direction of the cave with the other person.

"Wait, you're going to take us to get the money first. The leader shouted. But instead of waiting, these two people quickened their pace. It wasn't until they were approaching the entrance of the cave that the leader realized something was wrong and shouted, "Get them." ”

The big-eared monsters around them rushed towards the two of them. But as soon as they got closer, a huge explosion blew up three or four big-eared monsters, and the others were also shocked into a large area. All the big-eared monsters were frightened by this blow and immediately stopped.

"Just a magician. Brothers, don't be afraid, everyone. "The leader is experienced in combat, and knows that the mage of melee combat is only the object of the sword, so he drew the short knife at his waist and brandished it and rushed forward.

He rushed straight at the man who had just cast a spell with a palm still outstretched. This is the one who readily promised a huge ransom yesterday, and now his behavior has made it clear that the promise that has excited him all night is nothing more than a hoax. Disappointment, the leader's already high pride fell into the abyss, and in his rage, he decided to kill the guy first.

The leader rushed closer, let out a roar, and stabbed the man with a single sword. But he immediately felt his hand tighten, and his body suddenly flew up, and before he could react, he slammed into the mountain wall, and his body almost fell apart.

There are only two people on the other side. The big-eared monsters were not afraid, and rushed forward with their weapons drawn, others ran back to their dwellings to get their weapons, and some rushed up with their bare hands.

The unsuspecting Asa of the big-eared monsters expected it, and he knew that as long as he held the entrance to the cave, he would be fine, and the gap between the combat power of the big-eared monsters and the combat power of the two of them was not beyond his expectations, but he didn't expect his reaction.

This is a real life-and-death game, and he does not have the slightest softness. After just a few cuts, his body was already soaked with the blood of the big-eared monsters. Killing in a battle formation is completely different from fighting. Flying weapons slash in all directions, and enemies keep approaching you, and you don't have time to think about your movements and moves, and you can almost only dodge with your battle instinct and slash at every body that comes close to you.

The feeling of the blade tearing the muscles apart and the bones splitting from the hand immediately merged with the bright red red seen by the eyes, the smell of blood in the nose, the shouts in the ears, and then condensed into a primitive and extravagant beast nature in the mind, rejecting all reason. Then there was a feeling of excitement rising from within the body. He was completely immersed in this killing madness, and instead of going to the cave as planned, he slashed at the big-eared monsters in the opposite direction.

He had been hit several times by the big-eared monsters on his body and back, and if it weren't for this robe, he would have been hurt a lot. But Asa still didn't care in the slightest, the clarity of meditation actually came out of his body in this situation, which made this extravagant desire even worse, and he was already completely intoxicated with the excitement of the beastly stirring in his body.

Suddenly, there was a touch behind him that was completely different from the savage impact of the weapon, and it was calm and warm. "Let's go to the entrance of the cave. A shout rang out behind him, and he realized his situation from the chaos. Rodhart had already rushed to the entrance of the cave, but seeing him recoil into the group of big-eared monsters, he rushed in with him.

Asa froze, raised his hand and threw another fireball. After a loud bang, several big-eared monsters were blown out, blowing a hole in the encirclement, and the two of them rushed out of the gap and ran to the entrance of the cave where Chrisse was being held, with their backs to the mountain wall.

Chrissy had already heard the commotion outside and ran to the wooden fence to look, and when she saw the two of them running to the entrance of the cave covered in blood, she shrank back in fright.

Asa didn't have time to pay attention to her, and looked at the big-eared monster that was slowly surrounding. The big-eared monsters had already fallen more than thirty times, and now they were also very scruptuous, and they only dared to slowly form a circle more than ten steps ago.

"What should I do?" Rodhart gasped a little, he had been injured in several places, and it was really a very risky move for him to rush into the encirclement just now.

Asa licked the corners of her mouth. He had planned to have Rodhart guard the entrance to the cave, firstly, to prevent the big-eared monsters from taking Chrissy hostage, and secondly, to not be afraid of siege at the entrance of the cave. Then he relied on the robe on his body to rush into the middle of the big-eared monsters to slash and put a few spells, so that it was enough to completely defeat the fighting spirit of the big-eared monsters, and then it would be easy to solve. But now Rodhart's injury is not light, and he has to find a new way.

But what can I do? Asa's mind was spinning rapidly, but he couldn't think of anything that would work. On the contrary, a few big-eared monsters had already taken their bows and crossbows from their grass huts, and it seemed that they were going to target them from a distance.

Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and a team of people appeared at the door of the cottage.

The group of centaurs rushed directly towards the big-eared monsters. The horses were full of cavalrymen armed with spears and machetes, and they began to rush here from a distance, and the big-eared monsters that bore the brunt of it were immediately cut down and rushed to the ground, and the other big-eared monsters began to scatter and flee when they saw this formation. Asa saw that the leader was Lord Porugan, who had no weapons or armor, and was even more short on a tall horse, but he commanded the cavalry to rush left and right, and he was still very disciplined.

Lord Porugan only commanded the cavalry to kill and disperse the big-eared monsters, and did not chase them. Then he rode up to Asa and said, "Your Excellency, you ought to inform me." It's too risky for two people to come in like this. ”

"It seems like a bit of an adventure. Asa nodded in acknowledgement.

"Thankfully, I heard yesterday that you were looking for a helper by almost smashing all the taverns in town, and I thought you would probably do it. Today, I brought the whole city's escort team to wait not far away, sent someone to watch over here, and as soon as I saw you coming up, I brought people to rush over. Sure enough, everything was exactly what I expected. Is Miss Duchess alright?" said Lord Porugan, shaking his head triumphantly.

Asa turned and slashed the lock on the wooden fence, and Chrissy ran out of it. Seeing that the situation around her was completely controlled, she suddenly looked left and right, and suddenly saw the leader of the big-eared monster lying there, rushed over and kicked and stepped on, kicking and shouting: "You dare to arrest me? You have been locked up for so long, do you know who I am?"

It's just a child's farce, and no one cares.

Suddenly, the leader of the big-eared monster jumped to his feet, grabbed Chriss, and held a knife to her neck. This time to everyone's surprise, Asa and Rodhart were far apart, and it was completely too late to step forward.

"Don't move me!" roared the leader. Hearing this shout, the big-eared monsters who had already fled in all directions saw that the leader seemed to have the upper hand again, and slowly ran back a few more darers.

And all the humans here only look at each other, and don't know what to do.

"You humans are using such a plot to frame us. The leader was furious, and the green skin on his face turned black and purple, making it even more ugly.

Chriss's neck was tied and she couldn't scream. Her already thin and delicate face was completely overshadowed by a look of horror, which, combined with the green, pimpled arm underneath, made her look like a canary waiting to be dissected.

"Who's going to cut off that fellow's head," the leader roared at Assa, his already ugly face suffocated with anger like a papaya that had been soaked in the gutter for a long time. "I return his head to the Duke, and tell these humans that we are not to be despised or deceived. Then tell him to give us 20,000 gold coins with his own hands, or give him his daughter's head. ”

A big-eared monster grunted, picked up a knife and walked over to Asa.

Seeing this, Rodhart had just taken a step forward, and the leader immediately shouted, "Don't move. The knife struck Chriss' neck, and the yellow, jagged knife sank into her flesh slightly. With a little more force, you can immediately puncture that layer of delicate white skin. Rodhart froze at once.

The big-eared monster walked up to Asa and raised the knife in his hand. Asa didn't react at all, he frowned all the time at the leader who had kidnapped Chris. His eyes did not reveal a chaotic look that was just as confused as everyone else, but a strange, singular taste.

Rodhart yelled, "Stop. ”。 His countenance was distorted. He had just taken half a step forward when he saw Asa, who had been motionless, suddenly reach out and press his hand on the face of the big-eared monster.

Rumble. A huge spark mixed with blood flowers exploded. The smell of blood in the air suddenly became stronger.

The knife fell to the ground, and the two severed hands of the big-eared monster were still on it, and the lower half of its body flew out, and its internal organs fell to the ground. The upper half of his body was splashed away by the explosion and the sky was full of flesh and blood. The big-eared monsters that were clinging to their companions' flesh let out a pig-like scream in unison, and all of them scattered in all directions. Everyone else present was completely stunned.

Asa stared at the leader without blinking his eyes, and slowly spat out word by word: "Now that our side has the advantage, it's not your turn to speak." ”

The flesh of the big-eared monster was only now slowly scattered from the air, and a lone eye landed at the leader's feet, with some meridians dragging on it. The leader looked at Assa's eyes that were fixed on his face, and then at the eyes at his feet, and his body began to tremble, and the knife in his hand shook, and Chrissy began to tremble.

Asa's voice was as cold as a bayonet sharpened from decades of ice. "I'll let you guess again. If you hurt the hostage on your hand, what will I do to you? ”

The leader's voice also began to tremble, and he just shouted vigorously: "Don't move, don't move..."

"I'll give you two paths. Asa still stared into the chief's eyes and said unhurriedly. "Take your pick. One, you can kill the people you have on your hands, and then we will catch you and cut off all the flesh from your body with one knife at a time. I'll take it personally, and I'll make sure you can get more than a hundred knives, and you can see with your own eyes how your own internal organs are pulled out before you die. Asa pointed his finger, and the leader looked at the entrails and blood on the ground.

"Two, let the people go, get out immediately, I'll give you a way to live. Asa's eyes were like two red-hot knives that pierced into the leader's eyes and into his heart, stirring them into a bloody blur of flesh and blood, and the sound of his teeth bursting from between his teeth crushed all the remaining fighting spirits. "The choice is yours. ”

The leader shuddered, dropped his knife and ran down the hill for his life.

Chrissy went limp, and when she saw the eyeball and entrails in the ground beside her, she jumped up in fright, ran to Rodhart, who was closest to him, and threw herself on his chest and cried.

Asa let out a long sigh of relief and shook his head. Lord Porugan on horseback also breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head, and said, "Mr. Envoy, you must be too risky. ”

"For I suppose the Duke will probably not be able to come up with twenty thousand gold coins, and I cannot let him see my head and then see his daughter's head. ”

The most important thing is that I don't want to be beheaded. Asa said to himself. He wasn't acting just now, and although he also thought that the leader of the big-eared monster wouldn't have the courage to kill Chriss, but if he didn't, he would never exchange his head for Chriss's head. What Sandru taught him, he remembers very well.

Lord Porugan thought about it carefully, nodded, rode over and patted Asa on the shoulder, wrinkled his garlic-like nose and said in a duck voice with admiration, "I didn't expect you to be good at handling things like this. ”
