"Captain! We found a slave-catching group ahead! There are about a hundred people, and there are several large cages covered with black cloth in the group! Looking at the direction, they should be coming from the Giant Wood Empire!" A follower reported

;

When he heard it was a slave-catching group, Sith's handsome face instantly turned livid!

"Your mercenary group obeys the order! Kill all these despicable slave traders for me!!" Sith was furious without thinking!

"Captain! It will be dark in half an hour. I suggest adopting an ambush strategy!" Luo Xiu grabbed Sith and suggested in a low voice;

"I also agree with Brother Luo Xiu's opinion, use ambush traps to reduce the loss of the team in battle!" Rondo also dissuaded;

Seeing that the two most trusted think tanks suggested at the same time, Sith lowered his hand to give orders;

"-Phew! Okay, then let them live a little longer! But we must ensure the safety of rescuing the victims;" Taking a deep breath, Sith calmed himself down, knowing that he was a little impulsive just now;

"--yes!"

Rondo and Luo Xiu accepted the call and made a plan. Rondo laid a trap on the slave-catching team's only way, and then the team hid and ambush, just waiting for the best time to take action;

The sun is setting in the west, the sky is slowly getting dark, and the dilapidated paths are quiet;

This road was originally a trade road, but because the road was long and difficult to travel, the two countries worked together to open another trade road for trade between the two countries; this small road became idle;

But secretly, there were still many people walking this path. Most of these people were black traders and slave-catching groups. The Ziyou mercenary group also happened to pass by here. Unexpectedly, they happened to bump into this slave-catching group;

The sky became darker, the Sith's sharp eyes stared at the path, and there was a faint sound of wheels rolling in the distance. The slave-catching group was chatting and laughing, and shouting at the same time as the carriage moved forward, and the long team came slowly;

As the slave-catching group approached, the cries coming from the cages could be faintly heard. Luo Xiu found that the eyes of the Sith were blood red with anger, and the anger seemed to be turning into substance!

"Captain, you can order the attack..." Luo Xiu reminded the stunned Sith;

Upon hearing Luo Xiu's reminder, Sith pulled out his rapier and shouted an order;

"Brothers! Come on! Kill all the slave-catching gang!!"

Following Sith's order, Luo Xiu pressed the dragon sword in his hand and rushed into the team in front of him like a swift leopard. However, he was not the fastest. When Luo Xiu rushed out, Sith had already begun to kill the enemy, swinging his rapier horizontally.

, lightly chop off the enemy's head;

"——Stop! Who are you!!? Stop! We are willing to pay for travel!..." The leader of the slave-catching group shouted, hoping that the other party would stop;

"--kill!"

--puff!

The Sith glanced at the leader with disgust, swung his sword decisively, and ended his sinful life;

With Sith taking the lead, other members of the group followed suit and took ruthless actions without giving the other party a chance to beg for mercy. Luo Xiu worked even harder. Although he didn’t know why Sith hated the slave-catching group so much, as a friend, Luo Xiu firmly supported him;

The weak slave-catching group can only deal with the unarmed old, weak, women and children. Facing the fierce free mercenary group is like a jackal meeting a lion. You can only score points by being slaughtered!

There was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, and the Ziyou mercenary group made a surprise attack. In less than a quarter of an hour, all the members of the slave-catching group were killed!

"Open the cage! Release all the arrested people!" Sith had calmed down and ordered;

After receiving the instructions, three or five people worked together to tear off the black cloth covering the cage. Without using a key, they directly cut off the big lock on the cage with a knife;

Dang! Dang! Dang!…

Those arrested were all children, both boys and girls, elves and semi-elves;

--boom!

"Damn it! These slave-catching groups! Why can't we let the Elf go!" Sith punched the cage hard to vent his anger;

Most of the elves have handsome looks, elegant temperament and pointed ears, which make those greedy and luxurious nobles covet! In order to cater to the preferences of these people, the slave catching group did not hesitate to take risks and secretly captured elves, just to get rid of those greedy nobles.

The nobles received huge profits!

Although the Giant Wood Empire severely punished the slave-catching group, desperadoes still appeared one after another!

Sith gathered the rescued children together. Although these children were saved, they were still in panic. Sith comforted them with words and gave them a lot of food and drink to fill their stomachs;

At night, the team found a place by the stream, set up tents, lit a bonfire to cook, and prepared to stay here for one night. The Sith took special care of these semi-elves and elven children, not only preparing food for them with their own hands, but also preparing food for these children.

After telling them stories, coaxing them to sleep, and covering them with quilts one by one, Sith felt at ease. He sat alone by the campfire, slowly flicking the burning firewood, his eyes a little confused;

In the evening, Luo Xiu urged his younger brother to complete his daily practice exercises and went to Rondo and said

"Brother Rondo, do you know why the leader is a little unusual today?"

Rondo shook his head, he didn't know the specific reason;

"I don't know. Let's ask Manduo and the dwarf brothers. They were the first to follow the leader and they should know more than me." Rondo suggested;

Tongtou and Tietou drink and fight every night, and today is no exception. However, since Manduo was promoted to great swordsman, the brothers changed their daily brother fights to fight Manduo together.

Anyone who knows how to practice naturally refuses to come, so the three of them have a scuffle every night;

When Luo Xiu and Rondo found the three of them, the three of them were fighting in full swing. Seeing Luo Xiu and Rondo coming together, the three of them stopped their weapons, and Luo Xiu told the problem to the three of them again;

After listening to Luo Xiu's question, the dwarf brother shook his big head and said roughly;

"This matter is rather complicated. The team leader has mentioned it once before, but we two brothers drank too much that day and didn't listen very well, so we let Manduo speak."

After shaking their heads for a long time, the two brothers kicked the ball to Qianduo again;

Man Duo had a cool look on his face and answered simply;

"If you want to know, come with me!" After saying that, Manduo took the lead and walked in front. Luo Xiu and others followed him, confused;

When Luo Xiu and the others were guessing what Manduo was going to say, everyone was soon shocked by the answer Manduo gave! Manduo came to Sith with a cool look on his face, sat down, and then

Pointing coolly at Luo Xiu and the others behind him, he said

"Captain, they want to know about your past." After saying this, Quanduo stopped making any sound;

"..."

Luo Xiu and the others only felt as if a group of crows were flying above their heads, shouting to them, "Fool! Fool!..."

"Hahaha, come and sit down. If you want to know, just tell me. I won't tell you." Sith greeted a few people;

"Ahem! Captain, we have no other intention, we just care about you..." Luo Xiu coughed twice to ease the embarrassment;

"It's okay, I know everyone has good intentions." Sith waved his hands and said, "You should have seen what happened today, my hatred for slave traders;"

Sith fiddled with it to make the fire burn brighter;

"Tietou! Give me some wine." After a sip of strong wine, Sith's face turned slightly red;

"This happened a long time ago. When I was young, I lived in a small village in the Giant Wood Empire. My father was from the Elf tribe and my mother was from the Human race. Because the lifespan of elves is relatively long, I have been living with my father since then.

Together..., we lived very happily there, but until one day, everything changed! A group of humans suddenly appeared in the village, those slave-catching groups! They went around the village to capture Elf children, my father

In order to protect me, he was killed by those humans!" Sith took a sip of wine and choked until his eyes turned red;

"Do you know what it's like to watch your loved ones being killed with your own eyes? I just felt madness and despair!... After I was caught, I thought about running away, but the cold iron chains and the strong enemies made it impossible for me to escape.

There is no way to escape, and all that is left is helplessness and despair! This is why I personally take care of those children. I want to use my own efforts to get them out of this mood and give them hope!"

"Like these children, I was also lucky. A few days after being caught by slave traders, I and other children were rescued by a mercenary group. They did not leave a name at the time. I only knew that there was a half-elf member among them.

, since then, I have determined to be a mercenary! I hope to find the benefactor who saves me one day..."

Sis drank up Tietou's wine and threw the empty bottle to Tietou. Tietou shook the empty bottle and cried without tears;

"That's all I have to say. Don't just listen to me. Take advantage of today's opportunity. Let's all tell our stories and share our experiences." Sith suggested;

"Okay! I agree! We have been in the same group for so long, and I still don't know how you lived before! Hahaha!" Rondo echoed loudly, and with his lead, the dwarf brothers also followed suit;

Everyone else agreed, but many of them still looked cool and didn't say anything. Others took it as his acquiescence. Luo Xiu couldn't object, so he could only follow along and participate. However, in order to retaliate against Rondo who was making noises, Luo Xiu said.

"Since Brother Rondo agrees with this proposal so much, why don't you tell us about your own experience first? We are very curious about the childhood of the mysterious animal trainer!"

Luo Xiu's eyes signaled the others to cooperate, and everyone naturally followed suit, shooting himself in the foot. Rondo could only bite the bullet and go into battle;
Chapter completed!
