The sun rises over the hill and wakes up the sleeping mountain village. The peasant women began to prepare breakfast, and wisps of cooking smoke rose into the sky from the chimneys. The industrious mountain people follow the ancient tradition of sunrise and sunrise, which has not changed for thousands of years.

A scream broke the quiet and peaceful atmosphere, and the ragged and fierce-looking men poured out of the forest, laughing at the sight of the panicked woman.

After a night of fierce fighting and fleeing, the robbers were exhausted one by one, and the village was a much-needed resting place for them to be slaughtered. There was food, there were women, and there were sturdy houses and warm beds, which were enough. As for money, it is secondary, the key is to recharge your energy and escape from the pursuit of those knights.

The leaders of the bandits had all died at the hands of the sharpshooter last night, so the team was scattered in disarray, but there was no need to plan ahead against ordinary villages, and it was enough to scare and scare these fools with the weapons in their hands. Most of the robbers had this in mind, with a lewd smile on their faces, and walked towards the village women with knives in their hands.

There were also a few experienced old thieves who quietly slowed down and gradually fell behind the team. They heard the woman's screams, but they didn't see the panicked look on the woman's face. After encountering the robbers, the women did not panic, but immediately threw down the buckets and wooden plates in their hands and hurried back to their huts.

At the sound of a low trumpet, the men of the village got up from their kangs, picked up their pitchforks, knives, axes, bows and arrows, and hurried out of the door to gather at the entrance of the village, blocking the road into the village.

The robbers were not unaware of the resistance of the villagers, but the force of the villagers seemed to them as ridiculous as a child's trick. Although they are no match for the Knights of Isttalen, it is more than enough to clean up this gang of mud legs. The village they encountered today seemed to be a little different, but it was more likely to arouse their pleasure in torture.

The characteristics of robbers have always been to bully the weak and fear the hard, and only when they slaughter ordinary people will they burst out with strong combat effectiveness. They howled like hyenas and swung their knives at the villagers who did not know whether they were alive or dead.

Seeing the smoke in the sky in front of him dyed black, Palanti subconsciously tightened his horse's belly to speed up, but El grabbed the reins and couldn't move forward.

"I remember telling you before I set out that if you don't follow orders, don't blame me for turning my face. El said with a cold face.

"Sir, the bandits are already attacking the village!" shouted the Lori Knight eagerly.

"My eyes are better than yours!" Elle glared at her angrily, "The Siciali thieves are not familiar with this area, and they can only find the exact location of the village through the smoke of the morning cooking, and we have saved a lot of time by rushing over directly." What's the use of you rushing over alone?"

"Sir, I think it would be at least a little longer to let Palanti go first, or there won't be many people left in the village when we get there. Timmy, the new vice-captain, leaned over and said.

El rolled her eyes and let go of her hand that was holding the reins, and Palanti sprang out with a thud, her own weight was relatively light, and her mount naturally ran faster than the others, and in a few breaths she was gone.

"Do you think I should still order everyone to speed up?" El asked, looking back at Timmy.

"No, no. Timmy shook his head with a dry smile.

"Don't worry, those robbers won't get any good. El patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "I came from this kind of mountain village, how big a village can be, but only a few dozen households." If you look closely at the smoke in the sky, don't you think it's too much?"

"Uh...... Smoke?" Timmy looked up and looked closely, but he didn't know why. He grew up in the city, so naturally he did not know about the living customs of the mountain people.

"If I'm not mistaken, there was at least one unit no less than ours in the village last night, perhaps the hunters' brigade that Palanti was talking about, and it seems that they are moving faster than we thought. El said confidently: "Let the brothers spread out and outflank them, and maybe they can pick up the leftovers from other people's food." ”

El's guess was right, and by the time the knights arrived outside the village, the battle was already over, and they didn't even leave any oil and water.

As the robbers swarmed up, a whistling sound suddenly sounded in mid-air, and hundreds of sharp arrows were thrown out of the village, turning the robbers who rushed in front into hedgehogs in an instant. On the roof wall at the entrance of the village, a whole line of archers wearing cloaks and holding bows and arrows suddenly appeared, aiming at the robbers and starting to shoot freely.

It was originally a massacre without suspense, but in an instant, the offensive and defensive momentum reversed, and the hunter became the prey. By the end of the rain of arrows, all the robbers who had rushed outside the village had fallen to the ground. The rest of the robbers who hid behind and watched the limelight out of caution only reacted at this time, and they couldn't help but feel like they were in a rage, and they turned around and ran away.

This time, however, they were no longer there, and there was no room to escape, so El led Istalen's knights to slowly press up from behind, tighten their pockets, and catch all the fish that slipped through the net.

The notorious Siciali Thieves should not have been wiped out so easily, but they made the wrong choice at the wrong time and in the wrong place. Eastalen's war with the Earthwalker Legion had just ended, and the army was still in a state of warm-up, maintaining the highest morale and vigilance, and there was no chance to take advantage of it. With the home field advantage, they dare to go to war even with the landwalkers, let alone a few thieves.

Count Snecker originally had the idea of two tigers competing to reap the benefits, so it was naturally impossible to provide more support. And after losing the leader Leon and the magician Ciro one after another, the undisciplined bandits immediately became a mess. After a night of chasing and killing, it is still as tenacious as a cockroach, which is already impressive.

When El arrived at the village, he saw Palanti standing in front of a middle-aged man with a longbow on his back, bowing his head and being reprimanded. The ground was littered with the corpses of robbers, and cloaked archers were methodically cleaning the battlefield and returning arrows. Judging by the situation on the ground, it was a completely one-sided massacre. Ordinary archers pose little threat to the strong, but their gathered strength is impossible to be underestimated.

"That's Ahmed, the current leader of the Hunter Brigade, known as the "Ranger of the Two Blades", a master of the silver edge, and the godfather of Palanti. Timmy knew that El didn't know this man, so he immediately leaned over and introduced him.

"No wonder no one dares to discipline this bear child. Ellen snorted and said in his heart.

The archers' ears and eyes are very sensitive, and Ahmed here also noticed El's arrival, and subconsciously looked at this strange officer. When he saw the velociraptor leather armor El was wearing and the dragon tooth bow he was carrying behind him, the pupils in his eyes couldn't help but constrict.

"Good morning, Captain El, I've heard Palanti tell you about the events of last night, this kid has caused you a lot of trouble. Ahmed spoke first.

"Lord Ahmed, I didn't expect you to have arrived in this village, and I would like to thank you for helping us clean up the remnants of these thieves, otherwise we would have wasted a lot of effort. El jumped off his horse, raised his hand and gave a respectful military salute. Although in terms of military rank, he is now equivalent to the level of squadron leader like Ahmed, but the hunter brigade under the command of the other party is a special formation of **, which belongs to the elite troops of Eastalen. In terms of status, Ahmed is actually a figure at the level of the three-headed dog.

El didn't know anything about it, but luckily he had a warm-hearted Timmy by his side to keep him on the look. For helpful advice, El has always been good as it is.

"Don't call me sir, Pros has always been cautious, he must have taken a fancy to your ability to appoint you as temporary commander, so our army will also be under your leadership for the time being. Ahmed said with a smile.

"Cautious personality, fart!" Er couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, and countless alpacas rushed past in his heart: "Is it good that Lao Tzu was pulled strong!"
