148 Extermination
The midnight in the mountains was cold, the fog made the air even more humid and cold, at the intersection of night and dawn, the cold armor greedily sucked the temperature in the soldiers' bodies, for the invaders marching in the mountains, a certain amount of exercise allowed the heat emitted by their bodies to resist the cold, so they did not feel too uncomfortable, but the bandits guarding the mountain bandits' lair were not.
They guarded in the icy night wind, their hearts chilled by the armor soaked in the morning dew, and they yawned, and before they even fully opened their eyes, they had already entered a nightmare.
A dense barrage of crossbow bolts rained down on all the posts, and in the thick fog, the guards had only time to utter a brief scream before they collapsed under the railings of the towers.
The mage opened his eyelids, and the thick fog formed by the arcane slowly dispersed, enveloping the militia standing at the mouth of the lair.
He waved his hand at his men, Ansel nodded, and the brigade of militia rushed into the mountain bandits' lair under the cover of night and fog.
The pace gradually accelerated, the palms of Lumi Jones's hands were dripping with sweat, and the nerves that had been suppressed for a long time began to become hyperactive under the stimulation of adrenaline, and he followed several soldiers into a barracks, and several of them felt something strange, only to wake up, and before they even put on their helmets, they were stunned to see so many strangers rushing in with so many heavily armed strange soldiers.
But soon Lumi Jones reacted: a veteran first shot through the throat of an enemy, and the hoarse scream seemed to instantly detonate the blood in everyone's hearts, Lumi Jones' eyes were bloodshot, and an impulse made him roar loudly, and stepped on an enemy who had not yet risen from the ground, and with a wave of his hand, a stream of blood splashed on his armor.
More screams rang out, and the entire nest awoke from its slumber.
"Successful raid. Looking at the mountain bandits' lair that was in chaos under the attack of the militia group, Jia Ruina's eyes gradually brightened beside the mage.
The bandits scattered and fled under the attack of the militia group like alarmed animals, but the few Mulans who reacted had already organized themselves and blocked the attack of the militia group with a strict formation and skilled martial arts.
As soon as Penny touched the ring on his hand, the giant cyborg rushed into the warband with a piercing roar, and the militiamen consciously moved out of the way, and the iron guy slammed straight into the array of the Mulans, sending out a whirlwind of flesh and blood.
Seeing this giant of steel, the mountain bandits' den is even more chaotic!
"Monsters!" the bandits fled in terror, and the griffons in the stables behind the lair flew into action.
"We've been attacked!" said Diban, dressed in a half-length sacrificial robe and carrying a huge mace, panting and pushing open the door of Sbamke's room, only to see that his companion had already risen.
"Don't worry, my magic is ready. Spamke said calmly, as soon as he opened the door and saw that the huge body was rampage killing Mulan's temple guards, his face sank, and he immediately raised the staff in his hand, and a ray of light hit the center of the steel monster accurately, and the giant god soldier seemed to be frozen for a moment, and after a squeaky sound, he fell stiffly to the ground, splashing a large cloud of dust.
The two warring sides were stunned, and their eyes focused on the priest behind the Mulans.
When the soldiers of Mullan saw the steel monster fall to the ground, their spirits suddenly felt a surge of lifting, and their formation became tight again, firmly blocking Helen's militia from the outside.
The light of magic flashed on the surface of their armor, but it was their priests who had begun to pray for the power of the gods.
"Despicable Serles, your tricks are useless. Spamk shouted loudly, his voice full of pride: "Look, your toys are broken." ”
The people of Mullan let out a cry as they looked at the huge iron man who had fallen to the ground.
Garina frowned, her hand pressed the teleportation gem in her pocket.
She saw that under the resistance of the Mullans, the attacks of the militia were constantly frustrated, and more and more bandits came behind the Mullans, increasing the strength of the counterattack, and some of the cunning ones had already mounted griffons and tried to attack from above.
Even the attacking militia had lost their vigor a little, and their fighting spirit gradually waned.
The situation seems to be somewhat unfavorable.
"Toys?" Penny laughed and nodded at Jhanwath, who bowed his head slightly, pulled out a gem, and with a shocking roar, an even greater steel giant appeared on the battlefield.
The hustle and bustle came to an abrupt halt for a while, and the Mullans and the bandits looked at the newly emerged steel giant in amazement, and for a moment they could only hear the howling of the mountain wind.
"It's still a toy!" Sbamuck sneered, and a ray of light flew out from the tip of the staff, and Deban and the Mullans breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that it was such a ray of light that had knocked the opposing iron giant down.
The new one, however, is only slightly larger.
However, this red light dissolved in the air under the resistance of a shield, and the expressions of the Mullans instantly stiffened, and in the few seconds they were in a daze, the giant god soldiers rushed into the ranks of the Mullans, quickly creating a sea of blood.
"How so!!" Spamuk shuddered in shock as he watched the giant slaughter his men.
It's not what he thought!
"Mulhollanders!" the mage floated above the Titan Soldier, and everyone on the ground heard his voice, "Please leave the land of Serre." ”
The faces of the people of Moulin were immediately dead.
A great shadow loomed over them.
...... The raid ended perfectly, and the victors cleaned up the battlefield and took into custody the more than 300 living bandits, most of whom were old and weak women and children, and were non-combatants in the bandits' dens, so that most of them could be spared death, but according to Serge's custom, they were to spend the rest of their lives in slave camps.
The leaders of the militia had three dishonest corpses in front of them, namely Zakasi, the leader of the Lion Owl Bandits, and two Mullan priests, no matter how famous they were during their lifetimes and how much trouble they caused to Searle, they were now Panny's trophies.
"Cut off their heads. Zhan Huashi nodded silently: "They can be your merits, the biggest bandit in this mountain area has been put an end by you, and the intervention of the Mullans has been crushed, this kind of merit is enough to get you promoted." ”
"Promotion?" Penny smiled and put the minion's severed head back into his pocket, "Teacher, I'm afraid Nansel won't be able to place me in a good position." ”
A strange look appeared on Zhan Huashi's face, as if he was amused by his disciple's arrogant tone, and at this time, the Searle knight Ansel, who had organized the cleaning of the battlefield, stepped forward:
"My lord, five of us have died, and seventeen of us have been seriously injured, so I am afraid that we will not be able to participate in the next operation. ”
"Oh......" the mage nodded, "save their bodies and go back to the town to bury them." The best care for a seriously wounded soldier. ”
"Yes. Ansel obeyed and walked down.
"Next action?" Garina and Hughes, who had witnessed the entire attack, noticed Searle's words, and their hearts moved.
"Sean, do you still have a move?" Hughes asked, frowning.
"Of course, let the soldiers go back and rest, and we're going to meet the pirates. Penny explained.
"What?" Hughes was dumbfounded: "Penny, are we going to take the initiative to attack those pirates?"
"Of course, there is still one day, according to the information sent to us by the captain of the Captain Dibino, their ships have all been concentrated on the island of Nimkul, and we will go back now, let the soldiers rest and get on board in the afternoon, and when we get there, it will probably be night. The mage smiled, "I'm sure our arrival will surprise them." ”
Hughes and Garina looked at each other a few times, not sure what to say.
They were all impressed by Penny's guts.
Jia Ruina's eyes were full of appreciation, and she secretly thought to herself that the eyes of the dead ghost were really not bad, and this young red-robed mage was indeed very good.
Smart, decisive, and heroic, if you were ten years younger, you might feel excited.
It's a pity that this is a red-robed mage.
Garina sighed secretly, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Lannie Lou on one side, her face was still hidden under the hood, silent, no one knew what she was thinking, just a pair of eyes, secretly staring at Penny's body, motionless.
Having simply taken care of the battlefield and leaving the mountain nest, Penny did not immediately announce his plan, because it was so announced to the militia that it was too crowded and easy to leak out.
When a group of people returned to the town, the town was suddenly in a state of boil.
The Lion Owl Bandits have been exterminated.
All the townspeople of Heren have mixed feelings, this group of thieves was destroyed under the attack of the red-robed mage, in a sense, the era of this mountainous area being controlled by the mountain bandits is about to be gone, and the red-robed mages have also shown their dominance, although the threat of the pirates has not been lifted, but the concept of more townspeople has begun to tilt.
Some of the townspeople's original thoughts of fleeing have also disappeared silently with the subtle change of concept.
More than 600 bandits were slaughtered cleanly, according to the returning militia, as well as the army and priests of the Mullans, which shocked the uninformed townspeople even more, such a group of bandits were killed, so the pirates probably had nothing to fear.
Of course, the discordant tone is not without it, for example, because of the transfer of a large number of troops, only more than thirty sergeants were left to guard, and more than thirty slaves in the slave camp escaped, such a thing made Penny helpless, because he could not prevent this kind of thing from happening at all, so he had to hastily dispose of a few slaves who had attempted to escape as a warning, and then started negotiations with a man on a ship.
"What?!" Sitting across from Penny was Morey, the first mate of the Gun Squid, a small boat moored off the coast west of Hillen, and every day at noon, the first mate would come in a speedboat to inform the pirates of their movements, acting as an intermediary between Hillen and the Gun Squid.
When he heard the mage's plan, he was inexplicably surprised: "You are going to attack Nimkur?"
