Chapter 2: Robbers

"Your Excellency, please help us." The peasant's voice was crying, and he pleaded with Sir Dias.

"Joey, what's going on?" Sir Dias knew the farmer, and Farmer Joey was an old villager in Blackthorn.

"My lord, a gang of robbers has stormed our farmhouse to rob us of our food, and they are killing people!" Joey's tears could not help but slide down, and just now, my wife died at the hands of those robbers.

"What!" Sir Dias slapped the table and stood up, his voice raising a few decibels.

"Father, allow me to kill those damned robbers!" Pine took the initiative to say that although he had always thought of Blackthorn Village as a poor and barren village, he had to admit that his family still had to live on it.

Dias was very satisfied with his eldest son's initiative to ask for help, and was about to agree, but Carl suddenly asked, "How many people are there on the other side?" ”

Sir Dias paused for a moment, a little surprised by his second son's calmness, but he also reacted immediately and looked at Joey.

"There were a dozen of them, all with pitchforks!" Joey replied.

Sir Dias frowned, the seven robbers with weapons were also not a small threat.

"So, Pyne, go and put on your armor, take your shield, and take the horses out of the stable, and then we'll go over there and stop them." Sir Dias said in a deep voice.

"Good father! I'm going to send those damn guys to hell! Pyne's face was overjoyed, he had already wanted to fight.

"Thank you, my lord, for being our protector." Joey looked happy and thanked him.

"Protecting the lives of the subjects in one's own territory is the unshirkable responsibility of an aristocratic lord!" Sir Dias waved his hand.

"Karl, we still have five spears in our arsenal, you go and take them out to arm some peasants, bring one yourself, and bring them over immediately." With that, Sir Dias turned his head and walked straight out of the dining room, now there was not so much time to waste.

"Hahahaha, brother, you can do some miscellaneous work." Pine laughed, as if in his opinion the logistics of distributing weapons were inferior.

"Okay." Karl shrugged his shoulders and led Joey in the direction of the arsenal.

"Stay safe!" Mrs. Aisha couldn't help but shout as she looked at the three men who had left the house.

"Don't worry, Mother, those guys won't be my opponents!" Pyne's voice was disdainful, and he must already have a picture of him killing all sides in his head.

……

"Phew, this place is really poor." The man with the long scar on his face spat and looked disgusted, but his hand was not ambiguous, and he stabbed a peasant woman to death at once.

"Boss, I said a long time ago that there is really no oil and water in this place, and this robbery is not as good as the caravan we robbed before." The robbers beside him also shook their heads.

"Fool, do you really think we have what it takes to rob caravans? If it weren't for the fact that the caravan we met was beaten by another group of people and didn't survive, would it be our turn to pick up the bargain? Scarface scolded with a smile.

Just half a month ago, they met a lonely caravan, the caravan was pitiful, there were two or three guards, and all of them were wounded, only to know afterwards that it was just a bloody battle, although it was won, but it was also a heavy loss.

Pick up the leaks, but this harvest is really a lot, just that car of things so that they don't need to come out to grab it for half a month.

"Help, Lord, why do you punish us like this?"

"It's all demons, they're all demons!"

Everywhere there were screams, cries for help, and the peasants shed tears as they watched the flames of their farmhouses.

"Boss, this village seems to have a lord...... "One of the robbers hesitated for a moment and said.

"Hal, you coward, what are you afraid of, let's grab a ticket and leave, it's okay, even if their lord comes, what power can such a small village have, it's not for us to ravage." Others scoffed.

"I just...... I was just! Hal blushed and tried to explain something.

"Okay, what Hal said is not unreasonable, you guys are a little sloppy, we'll retreat as soon as it's almost over." Scarface interrupted his men.

Scarface is still very prestigious, and as soon as his words come out, others immediately dare not refute.

"Driving...... Lil ......"

"Brutes, you're looking for death!" Pyne's roar startles Scarface.

"It's the lords, them! Lords, they're here to save us! Seeing the comer, the farmers shouted in surprise.

"Knight?" Looking at Pyne and Ser Dias on horseback, Scarface hesitated.

"I am the ruler of the Village of Black Thorns, knight Dias, and now I command you to surrender at once!" Sir Dias said coldly.

Although there are only two of them, they are quite bluffing, especially Sir Dias's chain mail, which gives people a feeling of invulnerability.

Although the Dias family is poor, they have a set of chain mail, after all, they are a knight family.

Of course, Pyne is not so well equipped, and he only has a set of leather armor on his body.

"Father, what do you have to do with him, these brutes should all be killed!" Pine exclaimed, as the crops were completely ruined and the villagers were lying in pools of blood as far as he could see.

Sir Dias's face was a little ugly, and his eldest son still lacked some strategy.

Sure enough, this angered the other party on the spot.

"Don't be afraid, little ones, even if they're knights? There were only two of them, and there were fifteen of us! Slaughter them, snatch the armor again, and we'll make a fortune!" Scarface shouted.

Suddenly, the robbers' faces showed greed, a set of chain mail is not cheap in this era, and it is definitely a big deal if you really get it.

Sir Dias sighed, he had wanted to wait for his second son to bring reinforcements, but now it seemed that he could not wait.

Sir Dias was not an indecisive man, and immediately took the opportunity, raised his rifle in his hand, and rushed towards the other party.

"Pine, charge with me, take out them, and protect our people!"

Seeing his father charge, Pine also grinned, clamped his legs, shouted, and rushed forward with his crotch.

With the knight's charge, the robbers suddenly panicked, in the final analysis, they are just outcasts who can't survive, if it is an ordinary person, they have already been frightened when they see the knight's charge, but because they have robbed it a few times, they have seen some "blood" on the tip of the knife, so they are a little bolder.

"Don't panic!"

Scarface looked at Pyne rushing towards him, licked his lips, and hunched over.

Seeing the opportunity, he shouted, the long sword in his hand was raised, and the sound of steel intersecting was crisp and loud.

Scarface only felt that his arm was full of paralysis, it was shocked by that kind of huge force, and if it was stronger, it was possible to break it.

But instead of pain on Scarface's face, he laughed out loud.

"Little guys, look at the knight lord is nothing more than that, hahahaha." He gave Pine a look of disdain.

Pyne was a little annoyed that instead of destroying the enemy, he had dodged a blow.

"I hope you'll be able to laugh even later." Pyne snorted coldly, and was about to charge again.

But this time it wasn't so easy, Scarface waved his hand, and five or six people immediately surrounded him, trying to trap him.

His current war horse has no vest, his flesh and blood are completely exposed, and it is difficult to get out of trouble, a knight can't charge to exert his strength, but if he is trapped, he will really become a living target.

However, Sir Dias's side was much smoother, after all, he was a knight who had been on the battlefield for a long time, and he was extremely skilled, and at this moment, he rode a spear and directly ended the life of a robber.

"Pine!"

Seeing that his eldest son was surrounded, Sir Dias was taken aback, and hurriedly rode his horse to the rescue.

"Stop him!" Scarface ordered, intending to deal with Pyne first, Sir Dias was wearing chain mail, and the war horse was also wearing some light armor, which was definitely not easy to mess with, and could be saved until the end.

"Don't underestimate me!" Pyne shouted, took the reins, and the whole horse stood up, stomped on his front foot, and kicked one of the robbers out on the spot.

At this time, several robbers were immediately suppressed, and they did not dare to get too close to Pine.

"Follow me!"

Scarface watched everyone unmoved, and gritted his teeth to take the lead in killing them.

At this point, he has no regrets, and these two knights must be left behind today, otherwise their lives will not be saved.

"Hugh hurt my big brother!"

Just when the situation was a little tight, Karl finally rushed over with four spear-wielding peasants.

In particular, Carl was taken aback when he saw Pyne being surrounded, and he didn't know where he got the courage, so he rushed towards Scarface, and in the other party's consternation, the spear was sent into the opponent's chest.

"Puff ......" blood gushed out and spilled onto Carl's face.

"Not good! The boss is dead, the boss is dead! As soon as Scarface died, all the robbers instantly lost their fighting spirit, and they all dropped their weapons and ran away.

At this time, Carl was in a trance, and he was a little confused when he saw Scarface, lying in a pool of blood.

He killed someone...... He actually killed people...... No matter how you say it, he is just a young man of the Celestial Empire in the 21st century, how can he be indifferent when someone really dies in front of him? For a moment, his heart was full of wavering.

He wanted to throw up, looking at the body of Scarface, his stomach acid kept regurgitating.

"No...... Not me...... How can I ......" His mouth kept saying meaningless words, as if instinctively wanted to refute something, although no one asked him questions at all.

"Suffer death!" Without surrounding, Pyne rushed out and was about to chase him out, and he was almost in a rage at this moment.

Under a single shot, a robber was picked out on the spot and died tragically on the spot.
