Chapter 140: The Robbers
Chapter 140: The Robbers
As soon as the prairie wind stops, many robbers will roam the prairie. At this time, the caravan that remained in Finn started to move again, and it was also a good time for bandit activities, and the reason why it was necessary to hire guards was mainly to guard against these people.
The robber had an inverted triangular head, a high chin pout, and a bright scimitar, and cried out loudly. "Stop the car for me!"
"What's going on?" said Ered.
Morey grabbed his staff and looked at the roadblock in front of him, a hint of pity in his eyes. "It seems to be a robber. ”
Generally speaking, it is not necessary to use robbers on the prairie, and even if there are masters in the convoy, they will often choose to pay some tolls to deal with the past. After all, the robbers are barefoot guys who are not afraid to wear shoes, and the convoy will inevitably lose a lot if they really fight, which is also known to everyone.
But this time, they've found the wrong target!
These people are not good gentlemen to be blackmailed - Pluto didn't even listen to them!
Pluto's body seemed to be huge and sluggish, but only a bloodthirsty red light flashed in his eyes, and in the next second, he had already rushed through a distance of more than ten meters with a violent momentum, chopping the guy in half with an axe! The blood mixed with the brain was scattered, half of it was crushed to the ground by the strong wind brought by the axe, and the other part was splashed on the face of the person next to him.
The other robber was still stunned on his face, but when he saw Pluto's murderous smirk, he grabbed his head and pressed it hard into his chest!
A scream of fear suddenly rang out!
Even a few laborers of the expedition team shouted in fright when they saw this, and the robbers had no time to scream -- Pluto's attack was like triggering some mechanism, and several swordsmen rushed out in all directions like tigers entering the flock! The dozens of robbers were obviously overwhelmingly superior in numbers, but in front of these people, they were completely killed and cried and scattered.
Dare to rob on the prairie, of course, there are powerful guys among the robbers. However, the masters among them were all concentrated in front of them, and at this time they were killing Pluto alone.
A magic missile struck away a panicked bandit, and Morey looked at Pluto's fierce axe shadow with his peripheral vision, and the corners of his eyes jumped. The one who was slapped by Pluto just now was a powerful guy, and the fighting spirit that burst out in an instant was very abundant, and it was estimated that he was not weaker than the Hanyue veteran.
But in front of Pruto, he was no different from the others! Pluto didn't say a word, and when he caught up with him, he struck another blow - the ground was potholed, but after the giant axe was slapped down and raised, it was all leveled, and the robber just now had merged with the ground.
The ferocity and bloodthirstiness of the orcs are on full display! Although the masters are all concentrated on Pluto's side, it is he who clears the side first. Not caring about the blood on his body, a trace of disdain flashed in Pluto's scarlet eyes, and he slowly walked back boringly. "Hurry up for me, don't leave any of them!"
Morey's gaze was still on the pile of broken corpses in front of him.
When his own swordsmen heard his voice, one of them trembled in fright, and his fighting spirit became a little unstable. If it hadn't been adjusted in time, the boat would have almost capsized in the gutter just now.
Although Pluto is not an enemy, standing by his side also brings an unspeakable pressure.
Morey analyzed silently in the back, his eyes gradually becoming solemn. Pluto's fighting method is very simple, just slashing with strength, but he has extremely strong speed and explosive power, so strong that there is no way to resist at all, a sword slashes over, but he can use stronger force to press back, completely crushing.
Orcs have stronger physical talents than humans, and even if they rely only on physical strength, they can compete with the fighting spirit of high-level swordsmen, and Pluto is undoubtedly the best among them.
With five people on the opposite side, including at least third- or even fourth-order swordsmen, it only took Pluto two minutes to end the battle, and it still looked as if he hadn't moved yet. Bloodthirsty gaze swept over, and Morey avoided it with great interest. Concentrate on hiding behind Ered and watch him wield a scimitar and occasionally unleash a magic missile to help.
The swordsmen killed the robbers on their knees and begged for mercy, but they still refused to let go, not only looked like they were killed, but also looted the robbers' belongings, this kind of strange thing Morey didn't know how to evaluate. They may have all done this before, otherwise they wouldn't be so proficient in business.
Eride had a familiar expression, as if such things were not uncommon for him.
Dozens of robbers were quickly slaughtered, leaving only the last few to die and a few minutes later, only one one-eyed robber confronted Ered, his only eye red. While roaring, he slammed his sword out, completely ignoring his defenses, as if he was carried away and wanted to die with Ered.
The others didn't go to help, and they laughed and gathered around, completely watching the show. Erred didn't call for help, licked the corners of his mouth excitedly, and fought the robber with the scimitar in his hand.
Morey stuck his staff in his sleeve and leaned over to watch.
Ered's strength is indeed very strong, and that robber seems to have reached the peak of the third order, and it is estimated that he can be regarded as the number one person among the bandits. But Ered was stronger, even if he tried his best, the robber still fell behind, and forced back step by step.
A sword slashed Ered, and the one-eyed robber suddenly roared angrily, and his fighting spirit suddenly concentrated, and he stabbed at him with all his strength, as if he knew that he had no hope of escaping, and planned to use all his fighting energy to kill a back!
The difference in strength was too obvious, and this knife directly broke the bandit's long sword, and slashed heavily on his shoulder! Blood burst out, even if he had a fighting spirit to protect his body, he didn't split it in half, the one-eyed bandit still screamed and was cut away, and spit out a mouthful of blood in midair.
"Ered, it's over, we're on our way. Pluto said lightly.
"Good!" Ered nodded, striding with his scimitar.
"How dare you kill all my brothers!" the robber roared with a hint of madness in his eyes. "Big man, come with me to hell!"
He suddenly took out a white stone and threw it at Ered!
"Magic Trap!" Pluto roared in anger.
Morey's pupils shrank, and he subconsciously threw out a magic missile, knocking the stunned Errid out! Although the magic missile was powerful, it was only a skin wound to the rough-skinned Ered! The magic gem fell into the air, but it also angered the others present.
Everyone was furious - they thought this guy was just a turtle in an urn, but they almost got tricked, and even Pluto was a little embarrassed at this time!
Under the terrifying strength of Pluto's arm, a throwing axe made a sound of breaking the air, and it was thrown at the head of the one-eyed bandit, and he was about to separate his corpse!
Although the axe was fast and ruthless, the robber was so fierce that he forcibly blocked it with his arm! The axe changed direction slightly, cutting off his entire arm! Blood flowed! Although the one-eyed robber screamed in pain, he rushed two steps in ecstasy and fell headlong into the stone!
There was a flash of white light in the air, and a layer of sand and dust exploded!
When the sand calmed down, there was no one left!
"Damn, where's that bastard!" Ered rubbed his waist and got up angrily. "Did you let him run away!"
"Don't worry, we're all outside, there's no way anyone can escape!, I guess we've been blown to ashes by a magic trap!" Greek said with a laugh.
Morey frowned, walked to the place where the explosion had just occurred, pinched the soil and looked at it carefully.
"Gentlemen, let me say that he seems to have really run away. ”
"What! you think I'm going to let him go?" said Gorrik, stunned, and sneered at Morey.
Pluto walked over slowly. "Gorrik, shut up for me, we really don't know much about magic, so Mr. Boent, I don't know what you've found?"
"Wait a minute. Morey closed his eyes, carefully feeling the faint feeling of a trace of earth magic, Morey thought about it, pressed his hand to the ground, and tentatively felt the past with his mental power.
"Follow me. ”
Pluto and Grek looked at each other and strode after him, while the others stood still protecting the vehicles and laborers.
As he passed, Ered patted Morey on the shoulder and smiled bitterly. "I was careless just now, thank you!"
Morey waved his hand and continued to follow the trail of magic.
The place where the robbers ambushed the convoy was chosen on the edge of a hill, which was why it was quickly surrounded, and Pluto may have discovered it a long time ago, but ignored them.
Magic traps are not a rare thing, although Morey is not a magician, he also knows a thing or two, but it is the first time he has seen a trap like this, and he can't help but feel a little dignified. This walk actually crossed half the mountain and stopped on the other side of the mountain.
Seeing this, not to mention Glick, even Pluto's face couldn't help but change a little.
There were clear traces of stampede on the ground, but the most striking thing was that one of the grounds, which was as limp as a swamp, but there were more footprints out of thin air, as if someone had appeared here out of thin air.
"If you hit that magic trap, you're going to be pulled to this place. It seems that there should be a lot of people waiting here before, so there is no need to say much about the end. ”
Morey paused and hesitated. "They may want to"
"They want to arrest someone! Unfortunately, it's not so easy to get someone from me. Pluto smiled sinisterly, but quickly calmed down and smiled at Morey.
"I also want to thank you for saving Errid before, even I can't help him at that distance, it seems that Gorrik agreed to you to join, it was the right choice, we do need a magic advisor. ”
"Ered is also a friend of mine. Morey smiled.
After searching the spot for a while, but finding few useful traces, Pluto returned to the convoy with the two of them. At this time, the swordsmen seemed to be arguing about something, but when they saw Pluto return, they immediately fell silent.
"Not much of a problem,"
Pluto glanced at everyone and shouted with a wave of his hand. "Let's keep going!"
It had taken a long time to track the traces of magic, and it was almost evening, and the wheels of the horned oxcart were slowly turning again. Morey looked at Pluto's back, a glint in his eyes
