Chapter 21: Ambush
The group of people walked on the continent, accompanied by Achile.
The royal capital of Lion City is a large city that can be counted in the entire continent, and this time Leo intends to open a sales channel in the royal capital to gain a firm foothold, so that his refined salt can have a stable market.
Along the way, there were ten cartloads of goods, lined up in a long line, and the more than forty caravan guards in the caravan plus the existence of more than forty fourth-order soldiers and above in Leo, the terrifying escort force, just the number of people, had already made ordinary robbers and bandits desperate.
But?
At this time, Leo and Rebeera looked at each other, and Captain Kari had secretly grasped the handle of the knife, and his eyes were like knives scanning all directions.
"Could it be that there are really robbers who are planning to do something to us?" Rebella brushed the fine blonde bangs in front of her forehead with her left hand, and the cross gauntlet sword was already faintly showing a few traces of white.
"Achile, are you sure those so-called robbers are what you said?" Leo also frowned slightly, his instincts made him feel that there seemed to be something hidden around him, and he had been following them for a long time.
However, the footsteps of the other party are very scattered, obviously the discipline is very poor, and it should be the first-class bandit bandits, but there seems to be a large area of rustling sounds, which is even more fragmented and chaotic, which makes people feel very surprised.
"Lord Baron, it is impossible for ordinary robbers to do anything to our large team, they simply don't have that kind of strength," Achile said respectfully, of course, he also spoke again with a little uncertainty, "but there is a good chance that those robbers will join forces to rob them."
But with our strength, even if they join forces, they should not be our opponents at all, even if they are several times our number, there will be no hope. ”
Ordinary robbers and bandits, but the strength of the second and third orders, and the equipment are also quite poor, how dare you?
What about even a very small number of fourth-order strength bandits?
The same fourth-order Lion Realm infantry that is almost at the bottom of the countries can also fight a dozen or so, their line, such a terrifying force, the number is terrifying, and the quality is amazing, who dares to fight the edge?
"That's why it's strange," said Leo, frowning, "I feel that they are faintly eager to try, Uncle Vent, how do you feel?"
The slender figure beside him was dressed very plainly, but it was worth mentioning that he was not wearing battle armor, which was particularly eye-catching in this group of marching troops, this was going to the Lion City, not a war like fighting the knights of Hull.
As the royal capital of the Lion Realm, the Lion City can be said to be very deep, and it is not an exaggeration for masters to walk everywhere, so it is better to let Uncle Venter follow in that realm.
"I felt as if it wasn't just the bandits, there were some very strange sensations, it was weird. Uncle Venter frowned and swept slightly into the distance.
Hearing this, Leo also frowned slightly, looking a little puzzled, "What do you mean?"
"I've never felt before, it's weird, I can't put it into words," Uncle Venter continued, "but it shouldn't be a big problem, I didn't feel too terrible qi." ”
"Formation," Leo said to Captain Kari.
"Formation!" Captain Kari immediately shouted when he heard this, and in an instant, the whole team gathered, the carts were driven together, the Lion Realm infantry formed a half-ring, facing the dense forest in front of them, while the caravan guards on one side were on the flanks, ready to storm at any time.
"All the guerrillas shoot arrows in that direction. Leo pointed into the distance, and suddenly, more than a dozen off-string arrows flew away in the direction that Leo was pointing.
The next moment, screams floated out of the woods, and most of the terrible arrows did not miss.
"It's been discovered, rush!" A big man with a beard on his face in the dense forest also changed suddenly, their long-range firepower is very poor, it is nothing more than smashing people with some stones, for soldiers in armor, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Suddenly, many stones smashed out in a parabola, but ...... It's too far away to hit it at all.
The scattered bandits shouted and rushed out in crimson and green costumes.
But this amount is ......
For a while, Leo only felt that there was a dense crowd in the distance, and as far as the eye could see, this number was only arranged to be as many as two or three hundred people?
"Arrows!" Captain Kari shouted, but it was obviously difficult for the guerrillas with only a dozen people to cover so many targets, and all of a sudden, the arrows flew in a row, and the sharp arrows tore through the thin armor of many robbers without any suspense, but all the robbers who were hit by the arrows fell to the ground on the spot.
With their cultivation, they can't resist such sharp arrows at all, although the guerrillas of the Lion Realm, and even the series of civilian long-range attack positions in the Lion Realm, have always been nicknamed "slingshotmen" on the mainland.
However, that was relative to the regular armies of various countries, and to deal with these bandits, those who were not very skilled in shooting were enough to easily tear through their thin layer of protection, but Er'er's cultivation was even more powerless to resist the incredible strength of the arrows.
All of a sudden, many bandits fell one after another, but the scarcity of numbers still did not have much to dampen the morale of the bandits.
Fortunately, the bandits' charge was not fast, and at this speed, the guerrillas were able to shoot two waves.
"No, it feels like there's someone in that direction. At this time, Uncle Vent's face changed slightly, "This aura is getting weirder and weirder, how can you give me a ......?"
"What's that?" Rebella exclaimed slightly, looking surprised.
"It's weird," Leo also frowned, looking at the black shadow rushing in the distance, looking closely, but there are many extremely fast humanoid species, the green skin is very disgusting, and the pointed ears are even more weird.
Slightly behind is a stout copper-yellow body, which looks quite exposed, with strong muscles and strides running.
This is?
For a moment, not to mention Leo, even Uncle Venter was a little stunned and frowned, "Why do you seem to have seen the information somewhere?" ”
Eyes of Insight Open......
Goblins
Level 12 (Mid-3rd Order)
Power 5
Agility 14
Intelligence 3
Charm 0.
Goblins?
Leo was taken aback, how did all these mythical creatures appear?
"It's goblins and ogres!" Uncle Venter had already spoken, "Pander has never heard of any traces of these things in history, why are they here?" ”
"Anyway, it's coming for us, let's talk about it after the fight first. Captain Kari shouted, and the long knife was eager to try, looking at the goblins and ogres who were still far away, and they wanted to rush straight over.
"The infantry in the front row prepare their spears, and the guerrillas don't care about the ogre," Leo said, his voice echoed through the area with the blessing of his fighting spirit, and at this time, he still took over the command of the battle.
Suddenly, the Lion Realm infantry at the front drew their spears one by one, flickering with a cold light to face the many bandits and goblins, and as for the Lion Realm infantry behind, they were even more vigilant.
Closer, closer, looking at the robbers who rushed closer, the numerous Lion Realm infantry, the corners of their mouths also raised a few smiles, how can a few bandits be their opponents.
"All caravan guards attack, don't fall in love, only deal with goblins, don't pay attention to ogres!" Leo's order sounded again, and more than thirty caravan guards charged, and the iron hooves of the horses galloped, and the terrifying momentum continued to rush towards the goblins.
"Ah......h
"Suck and suck ......" Many goblins screamed one after another, their speed was extremely fast, but there were many of them, and they collided with the menacing caravan guards, under the iron hooves of the horses, ruthlessly trampling on the fragile goblins, and the caravan guard's long-handled machete stabbed out, and it was easy to penetrate the goblin's body.
All of a sudden, the green blood swept through, and the huge goblin troops were actually routed one after another, and of course, there were also goblins who roared angrily, knocking off the caravan guards one by two.
After all, the caravan guards are not serious cavalry, and the armor will be extremely weak, and at this time, there were casualties.
