Chapter 10: Breakout
Li Yu wanted to find out the ins and outs of the matter, but the villagers on the other side didn't want to give him this opportunity.
They brandished the ridiculous-looking weapons in their hands, and soon surrounded the longhouse where Shuangxiu and the others were, and then attacked the gate without heeding Tom's pleas for negotiations.
But as the old farmer was pushed out of the house, the crowd finally stopped.
The few people who rushed to the front, you look at me and I look at you, they all look at a loss, it is estimated that they are the people who arranged all this, and they didn't expect such a thing to happen, so they didn't explain in advance.
And Li Yu was finally able to speak at this time, and asked, "You people, who is the leader?" ”
No one answered, but many of the villagers' eyes were focused on the old farmer who had been held hostage by Tom, whose mouth was blocked with strips of cloth by the Black Dog Guard's guards.
This was to prevent him from talking nonsense and being found out that he was mentally deranged.
"Oh, but what about him?" Li Yuyou asked.
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Don't talk to him, Priest Gilles has said that these heretics are monsters, and they can deceive people through words!" Before you know it, you've got your mind under control, and we're going to get rid of them quickly! ”
"But Uncle Tim is still in their hands." Someone hesitated.
"Uncle Tim has said that he and Aunt Emma are ready to die for the goddess." Another said, "All we have to do is avenge them and Liz and Claire and kill all these heretics!" ”
"With all due respect, you may have overestimated and underestimated our combat power a little." Tom interjected, "If you really want to do it, you can probably only pray that you can run faster than your companions!" ”
"We are not afraid of you! Damn heretics!
! A boy who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old waved a wooden stick, and his whole face turned red from being too excited.
Tom didn't bother to talk any more, he handed the hostage to his colleague beside him, and the next moment he suddenly ran out without warning, and ran in front of the young man in only a few steps.
Then he reached out and snatched the stick from the other man's hand, and with a slight stroke, he broke it off, threw it on the ground, and sneered, "Are you going to kill me with this thing?" ”
At this time, the surrounding villagers reacted, and someone raised the scythe in his hand and slashed at Tom, Tom did not dodge, just let the scythe fall on his chest, and after a crisp sound, there was not even a scratch left on his dwarf armor.
"See, no matter who asked you to attack us, he didn't have any good intentions, and made it clear that he wanted you to die." Tom said as he dodged the attacks of several villagers around him, and retreated to his original position safely.
He even had time to straighten his shoulder armor.
And his action not only did not calm down the villagers in front of him, but instead aroused their anger, and it looked like they were going to rush over desperately at any time.
Li Yu frowned, he didn't expect this group of villagers to be so oily and salty, it was clear that they were going to kill them all, and they didn't listen to them at all, just like those who were brainwashed by pyramid schemes.
And if nothing else, the man who instilled these hateful thoughts in them was the priest of Gilles.
The Silvermoon Church finally couldn't hold it anymore.
Li Yu looked around in the crowd, but did not find the figure of the priest of Gilles, so he turned to Tom and said, "Prepare to break through, the other party hopes that we can kill tonight, we can't step into the trap they laid, can we not kill or try not to kill to avoid further deterioration of the situation, can we do it?" ”
The captain of the guard, whose hair had become thicker, nodded, "If you just break through, you don't need to use your sword to deal with these rabble, but I just asked the people who stayed outside, according to their description, there should be a few very powerful archers hidden in the woods, and we have lost our horses and wounded with us, if they do something to us, it will not be too easy to leave." ”
"What if we don't walk the way we came." At this time, the lingua franca teacher proposed, "We can not go back to the green field first, go to the territory of the Pobo family, and ask them to send someone to protect us and escort us back." ”
"It's useless, at our current pace, go in the other direction, those archers can easily catch up with us, and the terrain there is even less familiar to us, maybe there will be a conflict with the soldiers of the Pobo family, these nobles in the west are all in the belief in Picia."
Tom seemed to think of something when he said this, and then looked at Anton with a suspicious expression, "You are also from the Silver Moon Church, are you also involved in this incident?" Tricked us into coming here. ”
The lingua franca teacher was taken aback and quickly defended, "Like you, I don't know anything about what is happening in this village. After a pause, he added, "Listen to the villagers, it was your people who did the bad things here first. Of course, those villagers shouldn't have shouted and killed as soon as they came up. ”
The last half of the sentence was added by Anton when he saw that Tom's face was not quite right.
Li Yu said, "There is nothing wrong with Anton, with his position and importance in the Silver Moon Church, the church will not let him participate in such a thing. ”
“…………”
The lingua franca teacher didn't know what to say for a while.
But no one paid any attention to him anymore, Li Yu said, "Wait a little longer, and we'll leave when it's darker." ”
The group continued to confront the villagers for a while, during which the villagers launched two waves of attacks, but they were all beaten back by Tom and others, and by the way, they also grabbed some less lethal weapons such as sticks.
Tom handed out all the weapons, and he copied a chair in his hand.
Seeing that it was almost dark, everyone began to break through according to the plan.
Tom took the lead and the other two Black Dog Guard's guards took the lead, while the other guards surrounded Li Yu, Anton, and the companion with the wounded leg in the middle and began to move towards the outside of the village.
The villagers all looked fierce, but in the eyes of Tom and other professional soldiers, their combat effectiveness was not much stronger than that of the young man with a wooden stick before.
Moreover, the Black Dog Guards were well-equipped, and the dwarven armor and freshly baked dragon scale shields protected them tightly, and the rudimentary weapons in the hands of those peasants could not hurt them at all.
It wasn't until they were almost at the entrance of the village that the archers who had shot their horses not long ago reappeared.
An arrow with a black iron arrow swooped in front of Tom's eyes, but Tom was caught in the air with his shield.
