Chapter Seventy-Two: An Untimely Task

For it was now completely dark, and only a full moon appeared from time to time through the clouds, and when the moon emerged from the clouds, the faint moonlight dispelled a little darkness.

Through the moonlight, Gervais saw a convoy in front of the avenue slowly approaching, the number of people could not be determined at present, but at least more than twenty people, of course, the convoy in front of him would not be only more than twenty people, Gervais only counted the least number of people by the more than twenty torches that flickered brightly.

As the convoy continued to move forward, it was slowly approaching the ambush site of Gervais and others, which allowed Gervais to finally see the specific appearance of the convoy.

When Gervais observed the convoy on the avenue slightly, he couldn't help but gasp, and his originally excited mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

Through careful discernment, Gervais found that the number of people in the convoy was more than 60 people, more than 20 more than the number reported by Audri and them in the afternoon.

This is not what makes Gervais desperate, what makes Gervais desperate the most is that the other party actually has two title knights, one of the title knights who takes the lead is extremely domineering at a glance, and the other knight is not weaker than Gervais, which means that he has at least bronze low-level strength.

If the other party is just a larger number of ordinary soldiers, Gervais is not afraid, he and Nashen are both title knights, and it is trivial to fight ten at a time, but the other party also has two title knights, and one of them is very likely to be stronger than Nashen by a realm, which makes Gervais hesitate, because even if he rushes out, there is no chance of winning at all.

Even if you rush out and give it a try, these ordinary soldiers you bring will definitely suffer heavy casualties, in the face of the high-level bronze horseman, even if you and Nashen are defeated, you can escape with the help of night if you are careful, but the soldiers under him don't even have a chance to escape, and Gervais will not do such a brainless act anyway.

At this time, Nashen also saw the overall strength of the opposing team, and couldn't help but raise his hand and gently pull Gervais's cuffs.

Of course, Nashen understood that the situation in front of him was no longer possible, and he was worried that Gervais would not be able to see the situation clearly for the first time in this kind of battle, and would impulsively choose to continue the attack, burying all the soldiers present.

You must know that these soldiers account for most of Gandalf's strength, and all of them are veterans who have fought for many years, if these soldiers are lost, Gandalf will need at least three or four years to train again, veterans not only have to train, but also through the continuous fighting on the battlefield to eliminate, in order to form a certain combat effectiveness.

On the other hand, the equipment of these soldiers, each of whom was equipped with leather armor and swords, and twenty longbows, added up to a lot of wealth.

Gervais felt Nashen tugging at his clothes, so he turned his head to look at Nashen, only to see Nashen looking at him anxiously at the moment, giving himself a look.

Seeing Gervais look over, Nashen pointed to the convoy in the avenue, and then slowly shook his head.

The meaning is very clear, the other party's strength is too strong, and it is not something they can eat, so let Gervais not do it.

Although Gervais was very unhappy in his heart, he still had reason, and he was not carried away by interests, and seeing that Nashen's face was full of anxiety, he nodded to him silently, indicating that he understood and would not be reckless.

He was slightly relieved to see Gervais nodding his head, and then continued to observe the convoy through the gaps in the bushes.

The convoy slowly moved forward from the gaze of Gervais and others, the two title knights of the convoy were attached to the armor, riding a high horse and walking in front, the horse's hooves should be wrapped with strips of cloth, so the sound of the horse's hooves was not loud, as the two title knights rode slowly by, the guards behind escorted five carriages full of goods also drove over, the carriage was already covered with sackcloth, Gervais and the others could not see what was loaded on the carriage, The goods on the carriage were not light only judging by the creaking of the carriage and the deep rut marks on the ground.

Gervais clenched his teeth and clenched his fists, his eyes were about to erupt with fire, this was too embarrassing, the things on the carriage originally belonged to him, but he was snatched away by Viscount Lanny, and he was still full of pride, ready to be a big thief, snatch back what belongs to him, and teach Viscount Lanny a lesson by the way.

But because of his weakness, he could only watch the convoy pass in front of him.

"Grass!" Gervais roared inwardly.

Bite~

Additional Rewards: Because the host's mood swings are detected, the system will release additional rewards, and the energy point rewards will be doubled after completing the task.

……

“……”

Do you think I'm not angry enough and want me to be angry?

Hearing the sound of the system in his head, Gervais's whole body trembled, and he almost couldn't help but scold, obviously he was already very aggrieved, this bird system still came to insert a kick, 5 energy points, and doubled, that is 10 energy points! At 10 points, you can exchange for a kiwi fruit, and you can find ten elf worm amber!

"My kiwifruit, my elven worm!" Gervais wanted to cry without tears, but whenever there was a slight chance of winning, he would not hesitate to rush forward, for the rich reward of this cheating system.

He had longed for a lot of power points at once countless times, but he knew that it was just a pipe dream, and what he didn't expect was that this coveted opportunity appeared at this moment, making him salivate.

But he can't complete this task today, whether it is the number of people or the value of force, the other party is a grade higher than him, Gervais is a sane person, and he doesn't think that he can be like the protagonist in the novel in his previous life, every time he has the help of God, God blocks and kills God.

Although the reward made Gervais greedy, but the soldiers behind him were also living lives, they also had wives and children, and they also had parents, and Gervais did not dare to let them die in this situation, so he tried to see if there was a miracle.

At this moment, Gna Shen behind Gervais was horrified, just now Gervais nodded to him, he thought that Gervais had completely dispelled the idea of action, which made him finally feel at ease, but not long after, he found that Gervais was trembling all over, as if he was on the verge of a rampage, which made Gnasm's heart instantly rise to his throat.

It's not that Na Shen is timid and afraid of death, even if he rushes out now and can't reach the other party, Na Shen still has the strength to escape, and he still has the confidence to escape with Gervais.

Nashen was worried that these soldiers they had brought tonight would be killed if they rushed forward at this moment, and Nashen was sure that all of them would die here.

Nashen nervously raised his hand again and tugged at the corner of Gervais's clothes, this time because he was too nervous, and the pull was much larger than before.

Gervais felt Nashen's pull again, knowing that Nashen had discovered his abnormality, so he suppressed all the thoughts in his heart, and then turned back to Nashen and nodded, reassuring the other party.

Gervais decided that he would still not act this time, even if he couldn't get the energy point, he would admit it, he had only traveled to this world for less than two months, and the cognition he had established decades in his previous life made him unable to disdain the life and death of more than forty people.

As if the heavens were going to play a joke on Gervais, when he had put all his thoughts down, only the last carriage was still in front of them, and there was a sudden change in front of them.

In the silent night sky, there was the sound of whizzing arrows, and the arrows from nowhere covered the convoy like raindrops, and in just a few moments, more than a dozen guards in front of the convoy were already shot to the ground.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

"Thief, look for death!"

"Kill ......"
