"Someone can't have encountered another bandit, right?" thought to Jaraint.

"I'll go over and see, bandits have nothing to fear for us. Joshua ran like a valley crying for help.

"Wait Joshua, be careful when you're out and about!" shouted Geraint.

"You can't escape, come back with us. It is said that if you take the three Kidd siblings to prison, you will get a big bounty. Suddenly, a man's voice was heard in the same place.

"Hmph, if you have the ability, you can arrest me!" a girl's voice reached Joshua's ears.

"Little girl, I advise you to be honest, don't mess with me, uncle. If it weren't for the terrain, we wouldn't have been able to ride a horse, and you'd have fallen into our hands. ”

Joshua came to the scene of the incident. He was surprised to find that it was Barbara Kidd, the youngest of the three Kidd siblings who had just left Flamechase City, who had just made that cry for help. A red ponytail, along with the hiking glasses and the rocket ejector on his backpack, was all too familiar to him. And the gang that had been chasing Barbara, Joshua also felt déjà vu. A red turban, a halberd on his hand. "They're the mountain hunters who helped us fight the volcanic monsters last time. Joshua thought to himself.

"Hold on to me," the mountain hunter's halberd swept towards the girl, and the rocks on both sides of the trail showed signs of being struck, "we mountain hunters never fail to catch their prey. ”

"Hmph! When my brothers were in the mountains, I didn't see you being able to help them. The rocketejector on Barbara's back emitted blue flames, and she used the jet to help her dodge the mountain hunters. Barbara's body rises and falls with the help of a jet, nimbly dodging the various attacks of the mountain hunters. When she was in the air, she didn't forget to take some tools such as wrenches out of her bag and throw them to fight back.

"Ah...... Damn!" A mountain hunter was unfortunately hit by a wrench, and blood flowed from his forehead, "You're dead, **!"

There were three mountain hunters in charge of capturing Barbara, and the three of them formed a triangle in the canyon to lay siege to Barbara. Although Barbara used the jets to nimbly dodge their attacks, she was unable to escape their encirclement due to the limited power of the jets, which allowed her to fly at slow low altitudes.

Then she had an idea: "You fools, you haven't caught me yet, Miss Ben will stand on this rock and let you catch me, see if you can catch me." "Barbara flew onto a steep rock. This rock is very peculiar, the area above is much larger than the bottom, like a pillar erected on the mountain path.

"Hmph, do you think we can't do anything about you if you hide on it? Hmph, this altitude is already the limit of your flying machine. You've cocooned yourself and trapped yourself in it. A mountain hunter laughed.

"Oh, really?" Barbara pulled out a tube of explosives from her backpack and lit the fuse with the flames on the ejector.

"This kind of explosives can't hurt us. The Mountain Hunter laughed, "With the fighting spirit of our junior Bronze Horseman level, it is enough to offset the power of the explosives explosion." ”

"I didn't say the explosives were used on you. Barbara smiled and threw the explosives on the ground. I saw that the tube of explosives landed impartially at the bottom of the rock. There was a loud "bang", and the bottom of the rock was blown to pieces. The rock under Barbara's feet fell in an instant, and gravel continued to fall from the rock wall above.

"Flash everyone!" the mountain hunters fled in all directions, and the collapsed rocks split the mountain road into two sections. Barbara escaped from the mountain hunters with the help of a flying machine: "You fools, you want to catch Miss Ben ten years early!"

Barbara gave a look of contempt and soared off the other side of the mountain road.

"Hum-huh!**, you're rejoicing too soon. Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in front of Barbara. Joshua noticed that the outfit was not much different from the mountain hunters, except for a golden coat of arms on his shoulder. "He's the boss of the last gang of mountain hunters?" Joshua seemed to know the man.

"Ahh

"Hmph, just grab it!" the leader of the mountain hunters shook Barbara hard. Barbara slammed to the ground. Due to the fact that her back hit the ground first, the jet on her backpack was shattered and lost power.

"We've been looking for you for a long time, and although we haven't found your two brothers yet, it's good to catch you back first and get your reward. The Hunter Commander smiled sinisterly.

"You ...... Where do you want to send me?" Barbara shouted nervously as she sat on the ground and stepped back.

"There are a lot of rich businessmen in this area who have paid us to clean you up. Some of the mountain people even raised money to ask us to exterminate you bandits. The leader of the mountain hunters laughed, "You **, you're still young." I don't think they'll do anything to you. If you're lucky, maybe a nobleman will accept you as a personal maid, and if you're unlucky, you can at least be a maid or something!"

"Get out of here! I'm not going!" shouted Barbara.

"As for your two brothers, I guess there's only one way to get to the guillotine!" Suddenly, the leader of the mountain hunters approached Barbara with a fierce look.

"Don't come, don't come!" Barbara kept moving backwards, but was still grabbed by the leader of the mountain hunters.

"Ah, damn thing, dare bite me!" Barbara snapped down on the leader's hand.

The leader of the mountain hunters shook Barbara off and shouted angrily, "Give me death!" and a sharp halberd slashed at Barbara's head.

"Boring!" a crisp metal crash echoed through the valley. Barbara noticed a back similar to her own size standing in front of her. In this moment of great danger, Joshua stepped forward with a sword in hand. Due to the need to go to the Temple of Flames, Frem forged a new sword for him. The sword is forged from one of the hardest rock ores in the Fire Kingdom, combined with Frem's superb fire magic. Even against the sharp halberd of the mountain hunter leader, he will not be left behind.

"Where did you come from, are you an accomplice of the bandits?" Seeing the diminutive boy in front of him, the hunter leader showed a look of contempt, "I advise you not to hinder our mountain hunter group here, otherwise you will look good!"

"Hmph, so many of you bully a girl, I, Uncle Joshua, must teach you a good lesson!"

"Hahahaha! I heard you right?" the leader of the hunters laughed, "you little devil? do you know who is standing in front of you? I am the leader of the famous mountain hunters of this generation, Sir Idri. ”

"I've seen you before, when you helped us deal with volcanic monsters in the Scorching Rift. But now we're about to become rivals. ”

"You're from the Aika family, it's ridiculous that you would help this bandit!" the hunter leader laughed, "If you don't let me clean up with you." ”

"Oh, try it!" Joshua said with a smile.

"Stupid, don't worry about my business, this guy is very powerful, you are not his opponent. Barbara slowly got to her feet.

"Let's turn our enemies into friends for the time being!" Joshua tightened his grip on his sword.

"Haha, little imp, I'll take you out in one move!" the leader of the hunters laughed, brandishing his halberd and charging at Joshua. Joshua could clearly feel the fierce fighting spirit of the mountain hunter.

The halberd swept in front of him, Joshua did not dodge, but gathered the fighting qi on the sword body, the holy light flickered around him, and it was another fierce collision, and both of them took a few steps back.

"Hehe, Idri, you've completed your move, and you don't seem to have won!" another voice came.

"Well, you're Lord Frem?" the leader of the hunters seemed to recognize the comer.

"Although this girl is from the Kidd family, I let her go in the first place, and we in the Aika family hope that you will not embarrass her again!" Frem laughed, and added a special accent to the word "Aika".
