627. The Slave Catchers
As the gates of the slave camp opened again, Imola entered the camp with several thousand men, attracting many slaves to watch.
Even in this world, tall demon enthusiasts are not uncommon, and Imola's height of almost 5 meters is too shocking.
Faced with a pair of curious eyes, the half-cow did not have any nervousness or excitement, for her, such scenes have always been played out over the years. What she cares more about now is the layout of the tents in the camp, which is so neat, and the managers here have obviously put a lot of thought into it.
Imola and Rebetta, who were more than 20 apprentices, were invited directly to the center's camp to meet with the remaining Yuling, Enkris Galloping Knight, and Banni, the half-deer man.
"Imola! Rebeta! As soon as he saw the two orcs, Banni ran out of the tent and hugged them, "It's so good, your majesty bless, you're all right!" ”
"Banni?" It was also quite surprising to see Imola of her acquaintance, who had been her staunchest supporter in the Frostwolf Forest, but after her camp was defeated by Rand, most of them were scattered on the run.
"Imola, I heard that you have been fighting with several slave hunters recently, and not only did you not lose anything, but you also defeated those slave owners?"
After the reunion of old friends, Banni quickly cared about his friends.
"Those slave catchers?" The half-bull man touched his head and said embarrassedly, "Actually, I'm just stopping them from capturing the demon slaves, and once they find out that they won't be able to deal with me for a while, they will turn around and run away." They all have mounts, and I can't keep up with them. ”
"Demon Bearer Slave?"
The half-cow man's words made Yu Ling suddenly vigilant: "Shouldn't their slave hunting team capture the slaves of the Demonless?" ”
"Hehe, for them, the demonless are no different from livestock, so why bother a slave hunting team composed of dozens of professionals?" Imola said with a smile, "What the slave hunting team really captures is the demon supporter slaves, especially the White Tree family. ”
Yuling and Banni looked at each other, and they couldn't judge Imola's statement, because in the slave market in White Tree City, only exiled demon supporters from all over the world were sold, and they had never heard of demon supporter slaves captured by local slave hunting teams.
Seeing that the few people in front of him fell silent, the half-bull man spoke: "I see that there are a lot of people here, there must be tens of thousands, right?" Where are you going to send this group? How to supply food? How is it shipped? ”
"Of course," Yu Ling nodded, "We're from the Galloping Horse Plains, and all the people in the camp are going to be sent to Yeqi City!" As for the food, we're still figuring it out. ”
After listening to Yuling's words, it was Imola and Rebeta's turn to be silent, in the past six months, they had experienced too many migrations, and even wanted to send tens of thousands of people to the city hundreds of kilometers away, what kind of project was needed.
After thinking for a while, Imola said with some hesitation: "Then I'm afraid you still need to send thousands more demon supporters to escort them all the way, and you have to avoid the slave owners of White Tree City, they are the real robbers!" ”
……
In the forest, hundreds of Terran demon lovers rode tall horses and advanced eastward.
Although the forest is not suitable for cavalry to pass through, there is a magus in the team who has magically marked the path on the ground.
"Krens, are you sure you're going in the right direction? How do I feel like we're approaching the Wyvern's slave camp? The Magister asked the great knight beside him.
"Mentor Zato Blue Lion, our direction is fine, yesterday I got a tip from a small slave owner, and this group of blind bandits is ready to approach that camp and use the Wyvern House as a cover to deal with us." The Grand Knight patted his chest and reassured.
"Little slave owners? Can you talk to this gang? The Magus asked with a smile.
"Not really, the iguana family brought a group of slaves to this camp this morning, and when the escort team returned, they spotted the bandits, so they told me their whereabouts."
"Hehe, I advise you not to easily believe the nonsense of these little nobles, they will do anything in order to move to you!" Zato knew a lot about the intrigues between the aristocracy.
"It's just a small family, don't worry too much. Before I came, the Wyvern had already greeted them, and all the slaves in that camp had been sold to the Galloping Horse, and if the camp was attacked by bandits, we wouldn't complain. ”
Knight Krens proposed: "If you want me to say, that gang is so rampant that it will definitely attack, I'm afraid that even if we can arrive in time, we will at most help the Benma family save half of the slaves!" If you don't know it, the demon bearers can't keep it! ”
"Makes sense!" The Blue Lion Magister was very satisfied with the statement of the big knight of the White Tree Family beside him, they came out to earn money this time, instead of fighting the half-orc gang thanklessly, it was better to grab a slave camp with a big stuffing, "But you can control the fire, the people of the Benma family have spent money, don't damage your reputation at that time." ”
"Don't worry, now that the price of slaves has risen, we will set aside enough slaves for the Benma family according to the market price, and they will definitely not find fault!"
The coalition of slave owners made their way to the edge of the forest, and found that there were obvious signs of encampment in the forest near the slave camp.
With a burst of light in the Magister's hand, he immediately came to the conclusion: "This is the trace of that bandit, they moved from here about an hour ago, and the direction is the camp of the Blue Dragon Family!" ”
"It seems that we have no problem reporting the form," said the Grand Knight smugly, looking at the brightly lit camp outside the forest, "It is obvious that the bandits have attacked that camp, and we should search the camp first!" ”
"Yes, if they don't agree, it means that there is collusion with the gang!" The Magister understood what the knight meant, and echoed.
About 50 knights with more than apprentices, more than 20 assassins, mercenaries, and more than 30 demon supporters rushed out of the forest, quickly charging in the direction of the camp, preparing to break through the wooden wall before the camp's defense forces could find out, causing the slaves inside to panic.
Just as the cavalry were approaching a hillside, a warning echoed in the sky: "Listen, that cavalry! This is the Knights of the Galloping Horse, and those who dare to go forward will be punished as robbers! ”
"It seems that the Galloping Horse family is on guard?" Zato Blue Lion frowned, "Surely they've already defeated the orc bandits?" ”
"Whatever, when you come to our White Tree City, you have to follow my rules!" Krens said disdainfully, then yelled in front of him, "Where are the Galloping Knights?" This is White Tree City, fuck off! ”
