Chapter 53: The Second Wave of Attacks

After receiving Anthony's reply, Pheren decided to go on the road immediately, waiting for rescue is not Feren's habit, besides, elementary school students have learned that starting from both ends at the same time can shorten the time, maybe you can meet the people who come to meet you halfway.

Originally, I wanted Fei Lun to hire a team of mercenaries to escort him, but after hearing Fei Lun say that there was someone to answer, Lawrence no longer insisted, compared to mercenaries, it is safer to be soldiers, as long as you speed up, you will definitely be able to meet the people who come to meet you in a short time, and you don't have to worry about the killer or anything when the time comes.

In order to meet the people who received him as soon as possible, Faeron decided to hit the road as soon as possible, and speed up the advance, and after purchasing supplies, the convoy quickly left the city and accelerated its pace towards the imperial capital.

After leaving the city, the killer did not reappear, and Lawrence felt a little more lucky, maybe the buyer had stopped trading, maybe the road would be much quieter in the future.

Fei Lun is not so optimistic, the first wave of killers is too weak, it is completely based on assassination, and the head-to-head confrontation has no effect at all, if he is the buyer, he is absolutely unwilling, and he will definitely shoot again, and the second attack is definitely not as simple as the first one.

After the pressure, Fei Lun is not so easy to watch the scenery or read a book leisurely, he is always tense and can attack the enemy in the first time.

During the first day, the road was safe, there was no wind and grass, and in the evening, Lawrence arranged double posts and rotational rest, so that the vigilance must be raised to the highest level.

The night was peaceful, and the first day was spent peacefully.

The next day.

The day is still calm as usual, perhaps because there are fewer places to ambush on the side of the road, there are more pedestrians coming and going, it is already close to the next city, I believe that the killer also feels that the possibility of failure here is relatively large, and the night in the hotel is spent overnight, the surrounding is popular, and the atmosphere of the convoy is also a little relaxed.

Day 3.

Lawrence told Faeron that it would take a day or two to reach the next town after a long no-man's land, and explained that the convoy was in good spirits, but everyone's mood was no longer so dark, because they were one step closer to the person who answered, and believed that it would not be long before they could meet.

The day passed peacefully, and there was still no abnormality in the open at night, which made Lawrence feel more relaxed, and he thought that it was more likely that the killer would stop the mission.

However, Feron still believed that the attack was not over yet, and that the longer the calm became, the more dangerous it became, and the scorpion killer must be preparing for the next fatal blow.

Day 4.

"Young Master Faeron, I'm afraid the scorpion killer won't come again, it's been so long, and we'll have to go to the imperial capital if we go any further. ”

Lawrence was in a good mood, not only had the injured players recovered, but also more than half of the trip, because the pace of acceleration for several days in a row had been too much earlier than expected.

"Are you so sure? It's better to be careful, doesn't Captain Lawrence know that the night before dawn is the darkest, or better be careful, with Captain Lawrence's experience, I believe you won't understand. ”

Pheren frowned, if Lawrence let his guard down, it would be dangerous.

"Huh?" Lawrence was stunned by Faeron's words, and immediately understood, his originally bronzed face instantly deepened a little color, as a mercenary, he was actually reminded by his employer that he was still an old mercenary, and he actually made this kind of mistake, "I know, Young Master Feren, I was really confused by these killers, fortunately, with Young Master Feren's reminder, I will rule the team members to be more vigilant." ”

Seeing Lawrence re-raise his vigilance, and Pheren didn't say anything more, he always had a premonition that an attack was coming.

In the evening, the convoy rushed to the next town, because of Pheron's reminder, in the inn, Lawrence still arranged for the team to stand guard at night, and there could be no sloppiness.

Day 5.

The convoy is still hurrying on the road early in the morning, striving to reach the imperial capital as soon as possible, as long as it arrives in the imperial capital, even if the number one killer organization in the mainland wants to make trouble, it must be weighed.

"Let's speed up, let's take a break after this forest. ”

Lawrence traveled back and forth in front of the team, constantly patrolling the team and filling in the holes.

The dense forest around makes Fei Lun very depressed, this kind of completely undeveloped forest, stuffed into hundreds of thousands of people do not need to hide and is not easy to find, this is the best place for soldiers to set up ambushes.

This forest passage is not too long, just passing through the periphery of the forest, the density of the woods is not too large, the sunlight spills in through the gaps in the branches and leaves to illuminate the passage, unlike some forest paths, which are impermeable to the wind, and the sunlight is blocked, it is simply gloomy and dim, and it is the best place to shoot horror movies.

Just when there was still a short way to pass through the forest, a row of crossbow arrows was suddenly shot out of the forest, and the mercenary who hit the head was not prepared, and was immediately shot off the horse, screaming and roaring, and the mercenary behind immediately used the usual life-saving stunt after hearing the scream, or jumping, rolling or rolling, in short, the first time to get out of the horse's back, hiding behind the horse.

However, there was only one round of long-range attacks, and after killing the three mercenaries who were the first to go, more than thirty men in black with masks came out of the forest, and at first glance they were in the same group as the men in black that night, and this time, they were no longer holding daggers, but longsword scimitars.

"Everyone be careful, this killer is not simple. ”

After Lawrence yelled, he rushed forward with his big sword, he had the highest force value in the team, and he had to stop more firepower so that the losses of the team members would be minimized.

The mercenaries also saw that the killers this time were different from the last time those killers who could only tiptoe and sneak attack, and hurriedly organized a battle formation around Faerun's carriage, the mercenaries' individual strength was not high, but they could double the force value with their cooperation.

Lawrence brandished his big sword at the front, and the remaining mercenaries fought with the killers in twos and threes, but this time there were too many killers, and the mercenaries fell behind as soon as they came into contact, and they were completely suppressed, and it was only a matter of time before they were killed, and Faeron's coachman and servants were hiding together and trembling, and the killers didn't care about them at all, and when they finished dealing with the mercenaries, they were cleaning up these guys who didn't have the ability to resist.

Feron was no longer in the carriage for protection, and he was the most powerful attacker.

As soon as Fei Lun, who had already decided to make a move, opened the carriage door and stood on the pedals about to release his magic, he felt a cold wind coming, and hurriedly lowered his head, and a sharp sword grazed over his head.

Damn, when did a killer have touched the carriage and stayed there quietly, just waiting for Feren to come out and sneak attack him, it seems that this time he was targeted.

Fei Lun didn't care whether his movements were elegant or not, jumped out of the carriage and rolled on the spot to avoid the killer's follow-up attack, and after standing up, he quickly released a wind blade while the killer didn't follow.

The killer was still on the way to Faeron when he was blown to pieces by a large wind blade, and his body shook and fell to the ground.

Without waiting for Fei Lun to carefully feel the feeling of killing people at close range, he felt a pain in his right arm, and the crossbow arrow was stuck in his arm, Fei Lun hurriedly released a wind shield for himself, which could prevent long-distance attacks, and then hurriedly retreated to the side of the carriage.

With his back against the carriage and the protection of the wind shield in front of him, Fei Lun was finally able to free his hands to attack, because the mercenaries and killers were entangled, and the more powerful magic could not be used, and Fei Lun could only use the wind blade and water arrows to shoot, fortunately, Anthony asked Fei Lun to practice accuracy, otherwise Fei Lun would be completely useless today.

With the support of magic, the killers' attacks are no longer so smooth, they not only have to fight with mercenaries, but also have to guard against magic that flies from time to time, count them lucky, Fei Lun has a better heart, they don't use powerful magic, they can also use weapons to block, if Fei Lun doesn't care about the life and death of the mercenaries, and directly increases the firepower, they will definitely not be able to support for a minute.

The killers paused, so that the mercenaries were also a little calm, no longer scrambling, and they could support not defeat, but if they wanted to win, they were still a little behind.

Lawrence single-handedly stopped the three killers, and although the big sword wielding made the three killers have no time to estimate the others, it also made Lawrence unable to take time to help the team.

The two sides are in such a strange stalemate, Lawrence is anxious, if the stalemate continues, it must be his own side that loses, these killers have more experience in killing people than their own team members, and they also know how to win better, and although they have the help of Fei Lun's magic, there is no danger for a short time, and if they continue, when the physical strength of the team members declines, even if Fei Lun can continue to release magic, it is useless.

"Qiang," just as Lawrence stepped up his attack and wanted to defeat the three killers to help the team, the three killers made a move at the same time to block Lawrence's greatsword.

A killer armed with two knives, under the cover of the three killers, burst into Lawrence's arms, and stabbed Lawrence in the chest like horns.

Lawrence's eyes widened, he didn't expect that there was actually a killer peeking at the side, the killer's attack was not surprised by Lawrence, he puffed up the little fighting energy in his body, shook off the weapon that clamped the big sword, and quickly retreated, but unfortunately he was still left a hole in his chest by the double knife.

Blood spurted out instantly, Lawrence took a few steps back, used the big sword as a crutch, supported his body, and quickly took out the magic potion that Fei Lun gave him in his waist pocket with one hand and poured it into his mouth, because of the effect of the magic potion, the wound on his chest began to slow down the bleeding, but the wound was too big, almost across the entire chest, and the effect of the magic potion was dispersed a lot, and it would not be able to heal for a while.
