Chapter 5: Victory in the First Battle

After a few more robbers fell, the rest of the robbers gradually recovered from their stupor moments.

Today is a hard stubble, if you want to eat it, I'm afraid it's a bit laborious.

Accustomed to a life of licking blood from the knife's edge, the robbers have their own way of dealing with the crisis.

The remaining robbers no longer rushed upwards as thoughtlessly as they did at the beginning, and began to cooperate with each other with a little tacit understanding.

In the beginning, they wanted to use the usual siege slam fight. Ordinary caravans would be frightened and panicked after being raided, and then swarms of robbers would swarm and hack to death, but this strategy would obviously not work today against these two young men who looked immature but had good combat effectiveness.

I saw that the robbers divided into two groups, one of them killed Ike not far away, and the other part surrounded Lance.

Looking at the five robbers who surrounded him, a sneer appeared on the corner of Lance's mouth.

With the previous combat experience, Lance didn't pay attention to these rabbles in front of him at all, but this does not mean that Lance will underestimate the enemy.

Seeing the robbers getting closer and closer, Lance stepped back and quickly flashed out of the bandits' encirclement, fighting them as he moved.

This is what he does best, using nimble footwork and strange and effective attacks to defuse the bandits' siege.

Lance and Ike can have such strength in the battle, it is entirely due to Candita and Bernie's correct and effective teaching to them, in the process of teaching, they also simulated various emergencies for Lance and Ike to make the two young men suffer, and sometimes they also pulled some villagers with good relationships, and surrounded Lance and Ike for a while.

Candita and Bernie are powerful mercenaries whose strength has broken through to the Great Martial Arts, and they have survived countless trials of life and death to survive until now, and their experienced combat skills have greatly benefited Lance and Ike, who have studied with them.

The battle continued, and at this moment the Lancety sword rushed towards the left of the five robbers.

After the long sword in Lance's right hand blocked the leftmost robber with the sword, his body did not stop, and he flexibly and quickly approached the robber closest to him, and his body came behind the robber in a flash, and the short sword in his left hand quickly swiped lightly on the back of the robber's defenseless neck, bringing a burst of blood at the same time, and quickly dodged the slash of another robber, and flew up to knock the attacking robber to the ground.

A gust of wind came from behind him, and Lance hurriedly turned around and raised his sword to block, this knife, slashing firmly on Lance's sword, splashing a little spark.

The robber's sneak attack shook Lance back a few steps, and coincidentally tripped over the robber who had just kicked him down with his front foot, and at this critical moment, Lance had to roll sideways in embarrassment, narrowly avoiding the robber's swift slash again.

Lance dodged, but the poor robber who tripped Lance was not so lucky, so he was stabbed in the waist by the robber who attacked Lance, and blood and internal organs flowed all over the ground in an instant.

The frightened bandit, whose face had been twisted and deformed by the pain, blurted out a painful wail as he looked at his lower body that was gradually cracking.

"Boss !!!"

Yes, the man who attacked Reims was the leader of the bandits.

His strength was the strongest among the bandits, but through these two attacks on Lance, he was very frightened.

The initial first knife shook his mouth painfully, and a trace of blood had even oozed out of the tiger's mouth, which showed that in terms of strength, this kid who was attacked by him was indeed not worse than him, or much higher than him.

Don't forget, that was just the result of this kid's hasty defense after discovering the sneak attack.

And this kid was only forced to retreat a few steps after resisting his full blow, although he was tripped again, but he could quickly dodge when he fell to the ground, this reaction speed made him, a rough bandit leader, have some retreat in his heart.

"This fast, simple and deadly move, the decisive killing has no feeling of dragging mud and water, and the long sword in the opponent's hand that can cut his big knife out of two gaps...... I'm afraid I'm going to kick it to the iron plate this time!"

The more the bandit leader thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he even felt a little frightened.

I'm afraid it's really going to be planted, and a sense of powerlessness swells up in the heart of the bandit leader.

As the leader of a bandit gang, the bandit leader quickly made the decision to retreat after this series of thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Withdraw!"

The bandit leader roared after forcing Lance back, and then, without heeding the safety of his accomplices, fled alone into the nearby forest.

The remaining robbers, after hearing the shouts of their boss, also turned around and fled in the direction of the dense forest, and in the process of escaping, two more robbers were slashed by the sword of Lance and Ike, who acted quickly.

It wasn't until all the robbers had disappeared into the jungle that the groom and the beggar Bafort, who had been hiding near the carriage, were completely relieved and began to cheer and rejoice.

The whole battle didn't last long, and a few horsemen who escaped death only felt how wise Master Blank was, and it was simply too cost-effective to hire two young warriors with such a powerful martial arts for only two silver coins.

At this time, Blank also stepped out of the carriage, with an exaggerated smile on his face, his expression was as treacherous as he was, and the whole person looked like a rich man who had made a lot of money.

Although it was late at night, after a battle, everyone had no intention of continuing to sleep.

By the light of the fire, a brave groom was ready to "clean up" the battlefield to see if he could get something useful, such as money......

Lance and Ike, who had just escaped from the battle, were still in a particularly excited state.

It was the first real battle they ever had in their lives.

This battle was not much danger for the two of them at all, although Lance acted a little embarrassed after being tripped over, but it was nothing at all, and the big-hearted Lance didn't mind the embarrassing fall at all.

Such an easy victory gave Lance and Ike an unprecedented confidence in their future adventures.

After the excitement, as the two of them turned their eyes to each other's bloodied bodies, and then to the robbers who were dead or still wailing, their stomachs churned, and Lance and Ike rushed to the nearby dense forest almost simultaneously, hunched over and began to vomit violently.

This embarrassed appearance is completely different from the chic and murderous appearance just now.

Killing people is actually not an easy task.

Even though Lance and Ike had already realized that they were murderous, they were still just two fledgling teenagers after all.

Faced with this kind of bloody scene after a battle for the first time, it is understandable that it is difficult to adapt for a while.

Thankfully, however, the dense forest at night kept their embarrassed appearance in a tight way, which was able to preserve their heroic image in the eyes of everyone.
