By the time Leo regained consciousness, it was already dark and he had moved to a naturally occurring cavern, where the Valkyrie was dutifully protecting herself even after losing consciousness.

The bright campfire crackled, and from time to time there was a burst of roast aroma, which made Leo swallow unconsciously. However, the sequelae caused by the exhaustion of mental energy still did not subside, the head was throbbing, and the eyelids were extremely heavy, as if they were about to close again at any time.

Sensing his movement, Dot, who had first met the young man, immediately shouted recklessly: "Oh, come on, Mr. Minethil is awake!"

Suddenly, there was a loud sound, echoing through the not very wide cavern, and the dust was falling in a puff of dust. And everyone else was scared of a wit, even Leo was tingling in his eardrums, and subconsciously frowned.

Morris reacted the fastest, first stopping the others from coming to disturb Leo, and then flashed away.

A heavy slap on Dort's head, Maurice scolded: "What are you shouting, shouting! How many times have you told me, be steady! I don't have to eat dinner for a while!"

"Boss......" Dot suddenly looked aggrieved, "didn't you let me watch Mr. Minethiel here...... When I saw my husband wake up, I was thrilled......"

Morris interrupted angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, why don't you hurry up and get some water!"

"Oh, oh!" said Dot, who did not dare to say anything more, hurried to fetch water.

Morris glared at him, then crouched down and whispered, "Mr. Minethiel, how are you feeling?"

Leo smiled and replied, "It's nothing, the coma caused by the exhaustion of mental power, just rest for a while." ”

"Whew! I see! Then I'm relieved. Morris let out a sigh of relief and said in shock: "I thought you had been injured in the battle, but you couldn't check it outward, it really scared me to death." Hehehe. It's good that you're okay, it's okay. ”

Leo motioned for him to sit up and asked, "How long have I been unconscious, and where am I?"

"You've been in a coma for five hours. "We are now in a very secluded cave, where I have camped on the first few trips, and there are no wild beasts or monsters around, and it is very safe. ”

Leo nodded, and asked about his more concerns, "What happened to the bandit leader, and did the caravan members suffer any casualties?"

At the mention of this, a strange expression suddenly appeared on Morris's face. There is admiration, sadness, and a little happiness.

At this time, Dott came back with clean water.

Morris helped Leo take a few sips of water, then pointed in a direction not far away, and said: "This time it was really thanks to you, that guy was directly blown up by your magic and lost his combat effectiveness, and was chased by us and hacked to death." Otherwise, there will definitely be a lot of people to die before that guy can be killed. ”

Leo looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, he saw a corpse. A large area of the body was charred black, and the knife wounds were all over the place. However, his face is still very clear, and he is a very strong horse bandit leader.

Seeing such a scene, Leo was also slightly surprised. The "Flame Funeral" cast by himself is very powerful, and he was a common horse bandit before. It was directly blasted to pieces by this magic. But the leader of the horse bandits resisted a "Flame Funeral", and he was also extremely effective "Flame Funeral" with three additional bonuses, which was even more powerful than high-level magic. But not only was he not blown to pieces, but he didn't even die directly, which shows how strong the body of a high-level warrior should be, and it seems that the decision he made at that time was the right one.

In exchange for a few lives in a coma for a few hours, if this kind of thing happened a hundred times, he would not hesitate to do it a hundred times, after all, life is priceless.

Soon Leo discovers that the horse bandit with a goatee and controlled by his own magic has also been caught, and he is shivering in the corner with a strong rope tied to his body.

Morris sighed, and continued, "But in the previous battle, one person was killed, two were seriously wounded, and two were lightly wounded, but fortunately, all lives were saved. ”

Instead of continuing on to this sentimental topic, Leo instead asked, "So when are we going to go back on our road?"

"Do you have any ideas?" said Morris, who had been completely impressed by Leo's formidable strength and clever planning in the previous battle.

If there is no Leo, his side may be able to hold the camp and repel the enemy, but the casualties are absolutely very heavy, and he will even lose the ability to continue trading, which will cause the caravan to collapse and completely die.

With this thought, he became more and more grateful to Leo, but this kind of thing was not enough to say, and he had not yet thought about how to repay this extremely precious kindness. What's more, they also gave their son valuable learning materials.

Of course, Leo couldn't have known this, and after a little muttering, he asked, "Are there any other powerful horse bandits nearby?"

"No, apart from the wolf's paw, there are few horse bandits willing to entrench here. Hehe, now that the wolf's claws have been completely destroyed by us, and their heads have been obtained, when we go back, our caravan's reputation will definitely be even greater! And many of them are documented wanted criminals, and they will definitely be able to get a large bounty. I will use all this money to compensate my dead and injured brothers, at least so that their families will not have to worry about living for the rest of their lives. Of course, most of the money and the loot obtained in the battle should be obtained by you, and I will never forget this, and I will take this part from my personal property. ”

There is no doubt that he has a businessman's side of chasing profits, as well as a bold and righteous side.

"There's no rush in this matter, let's discuss it slowly later. Leo smiled and continued, "My idea is that the wounded will rest here for two days, and then we will divide our strongest forces and go to find the bandits' den." ”

"The ...... of the Horse Bandits "Maurice didn't expect Leo to have such an idea, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Leo affirmed: "Yes, the nest of the horse bandits, they will definitely do their best to make this vote, and there will definitely not be too much force in the nest, and the grass must be eradicated." And I heard you say that they have been entrenched here for a long time, and they may have a lot of savings. ”

"Not a lot. In the last year alone, several quite large caravans have been looted by them!, but we ......" Morris said with bright eyes, and suddenly reacted, laughing, "I wonder why you deliberately kept a living, this is really ...... Is...... Haha, even if these miscellaneous people come back to life, they probably can't imagine that their nest will be robbed one day!"

After a few more casual conversations, Leo ate some barbecue and drank another bottle of potion that would help restore his mental strength. Then he fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight shone into the cave, he had already woken up.

After feeling it for a while, everything was fine, and he said again in his consciousness: "Professor, check my current situation." ”

After a short scan, the professor responded, "Proptological strength is 1.63, agility is 1.77, and spirit is 1.71." Spiritual peak 3.21. Due to the recent period of mental exhaustion, the recovery rate is slowing down, please be careful to ensure as much rest as possible. Don't overdo things that drain your mind. ”

"It seems that there is nothing wrong with the body, and the mental power is still growing steadily, as long as you don't cast too much magic. Leo nodded in satisfaction. Walk out of the cave.

The terrain is relatively high, so you can see the surrounding situation unobstructed, and you can see the sun slowly rising over the horizon.

Yesterday after a heavy rain. The weather was very clear at this time, with only two or three white clouds dotted with it.

"It's a good day for a robbery. Leo smiled and stretched comfortably.

Although the Western Exile Land is barren, there are also some strange things produced, and those horse bandits must not understand the special features of special items, maybe there will be some unexpected gains, anyway, it is only a day, and it will not be delayed for too long.

............

Two hours later, led by Goatee's Beard, a team of ten horses arrived in a very secret valley.

If no one leads the way, it is almost impossible to find this place in the reckless stone forest.

Along the way, Goatee behaved unusually obediently, and as long as it was Leo's orders, he carried them all seriously.

This is all due to Leo's terrible act of killing four horse bandits in a row yesterday, which has completely scared Goatee's fear. And in the case of a broken heart, a very simple "charm human" can make him not have any hostility and suspicion for a long time, and even think that Leo is the person he can trust the most.

Sitting on his horse, Leo stopped three hundred meters away from the valley and once again added "Enchanting Humans", and then asked, "Bugam, how many people are there?"

This is the third time he has interrogated this question along the way, and the purpose is, of course, to prevent the other party from lying and thus causing trouble for himself.

Bratton, who had a goatee, was not impatient at all, and said respectfully: "Back to my lord, there are eight men in the valley, four of them have good combat effectiveness and are in charge of guarding, and the other four are craftsmen, who usually do some odd jobs as stonemasons and carpenters. There were also seven snatched women, who were responsible for cooking, cleaning, and sleeping with the brothers, and there were no children in the valley. “

Exactly the same as the previous two answers, Leo was sure that there was no problem with what he said

Morris on the side was already eager to try, and stepped forward and said, "How about it, can you start attacking?"

Leo carefully observed the environment in front of him, nodded and said, "It's okay, let's put the head of that horse bandit leader up." ”

"Hehe, I've been ready for a long time!" Morris turned around and beckoned, "Sixth, it's your turn!"

"It's coming!" a heavy voice sounded, and then a tall, strong, black bear-like man stepped out, controlling the poor horse under his crotch.

This man was one of the caravan veterans, and although he had no brains, he was quite strong, and he was the old brother that Morris relied on the most.

In the hands of the "black bear", there is also a three-meter-high bamboo pole, and the salted head of the horse bandit leader is inserted at the top, with round eyes and wide open mouth, which is very terrifying.

"Let's go, let's go. Leo gave the order, and the ten riders jointly instigated their horses and charged towards the entrance of the valley.

It seems that no one expected to attack here, and there were no sentry posts on the periphery of the valley, and it was not until a few hundred meters into the valley that the first person appeared.

It was a middle-aged man, wearing a strange black velvet shirt and a pair of red silk bloomers underneath, looking very strange. But he was covered in mud, and when he saw the clothes, he didn't know where they had come from, and he himself didn't know how precious they were.

At this time, the man was holding a hoe in his hand, waving it, trying to reclaim the soil suitable for cultivation on the gravel-covered ground, as if his original occupation was a farmer.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, he thought that the horse bandits had returned with their harvest as usual, and hurriedly followed the sound with joy. But when he found out that those people were very strange, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Then, his gaze fell on a long bamboo pole, which kept moving upwards and finally rested on the hideous head.

"Boss's head...... Well...... The man finally realized the danger, screamed, threw down his hoe and ran deeper into the valley.

Morris sneered, the bow and arrow in his hand locked onto the target, and was about to be launched. Although he is not a full-time shooter, he still has no problem shooting an ordinary person.

At this moment, a slightly pale, but unusually steady hand fell on the bow. Leo shook his head and said, "Don't kill him yet, let him pass the news back." ”

"Why? Aren't they guarded?" Morris was puzzled.

"No, on the contrary, it will make our actions smoother. Leo lowered his voice to explain, and seeing that the other party still didn't understand, he continued to ask: "Think about it, if you are killed, do you think it is more likely that your men will avenge you, or are there more possibilities of surrender?"

Morriston was speechless, although he didn't want to admit it, but he knew very well that if what Leo said happened, except for a few henchmen and hardcore brothers in the caravan, who would fight with their lives to avenge themselves, the rest of the people would really either surrender or scatter.

This is human nature, and it has nothing to do with good or evil.

............

Half an hour later, in front of a simple wooden hut deep in the valley.

As Leo had expected, the caravan met no resistance, and when the head of the bandit leader was seen, the men who remained in the valley had completely lost the faith to fight, and were as obedient as lambs, at the mercy of the caravan members. (To be continued......)
