The Netherworld River is a boundary that divides the two continents, Youzhou and Netherworld. Although the Netherworld River is called a river, its area is larger than an ordinary lake. You can't even see the other side of the river at a glance.
Some people claim that the Netherworld River is bottomless, and there are huge and terrifying monsters below it. It has been a dangerous place since ancient times, and it is like a natural barrier that completely separates the two places.
On a plain less than five miles away from the Netherworld River, a killing war is going on here. A large-scale war involving thousands of people is almost equivalent to a family gang war or a large-scale armed struggle. And all this turned out to be
An encirclement and suppression operation by the robbers against the Red Boat adversary.
Phew! Phew!
After crushing the necks of several robbers with both hands, Shi Tao looked at the nearby battle with a gloomy face. The number of people on his side was less than a quarter of the opponent's. Although the number of masters was slightly higher, it was probably not possible to evacuate safely.
Such an easy thing.
"Damn it, who are these people? How come I have never heard of such a large-scale robber?"
He cursed in his heart, but the movements of his hands never stopped. Every move could kill a guard approaching him, but even so, the number of robbers was still like locusts, killing them inexhaustibly.
"Who are you? This time we are hired by the Song family of Cangshan Mansion in Huxia County, Mingzhou. How dare you even hijack the mission of the master of the palace!"
The leaders of the robbers are a few middle-aged men, and Shi Tao has just observed that these people are very strong, no less powerful than himself!
"Haha, since we have become a robber, why should we still be timid? We are only for money, and the rest does not matter who he is, the palace lord or princess. Besides, we will do this business very secretly. Do you still think you can do it?
Are you leaving here alive? Maybe it won't be long before you all go to the bottom of the Netherworld River to feed the fish and shrimps!" A leader of the robbers sneered, without taking the other person's background into consideration at all.
"Captain! Brothers, we can't hold on anymore, the other side has too many people!" A figure flashed in front of Shi Tao, shouting with a somewhat anxious expression.
"Hong Feng, you lead everyone to evacuate while fighting, and you must ensure the safety of this cargo!" Shi Tao is not afraid of danger and can be regarded as a competent leader.
"But captain, what should you do?" Hong Feng said solemnly, with a trace of anxiety on his face.
"We don't have time to worry about so much. Let me stop these people first. You must take the goods across the river. As long as they reach the other side of the river, they will not be able to get to the other side without a pass! Besides, I suspect that we have some people here.
The inner ghost..."
Shi Tao said the last sentence in a very small voice, but anyone could hear the anger in his voice.
"Captain, are you saying that there is a traitor in the team who betrayed us?" Hong Feng's face tightened and he asked in a pursuit voice.
"Don't worry about these things for now, let's evacuate here! Let's go!" Shi Tao waved his hand, and then turned his attention to the side to kill several robber leaders who were coming here.
"Okay! Captain, take care of yourself!"
After Hong Feng said these words, he suddenly took a step back and stabbed the knife in his hand directly into Shi Tao's back from the back, and the tip of the knife pierced out from the front.
puff!
Hong Feng pulled out the knife from the opponent's back and brought out a large amount of blood.
Shi Tao's whole body trembled, and he slowly turned around in an unbelievable way. He looked at the teammate behind him who was assassinating him, with an unbelievable expression on his face.
"The inner ghost...is...actually you!"
Hong Feng's face no longer had the previous expression of respect, and he wiped the blood on his blade very indifferently, showing no emotion at all for what he had done.
Shi Tao found it difficult to accept, "Why? Why did you betray me? You have been with me for nearly ten years...Have I ever treated you badly..."
"Enough! You are indeed kind to me! But so what, I have long had enough of this long and bumpy life. I want to be a master, and I want a lot of money! But you can give me these!
Captain, don’t blame me, people die for money and birds die for food, this time as long as I can help them do this, I can get everything I want!"
Hong Feng's eyes were red and he shouted excitedly, as if he had entered a crazy state.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know who the employer of this mission is? That is the master of Huxia County. Do you want to..."
"What about the master of the palace? As long as we do it without anyone noticing, how can the other party still find out about us! Captain, do you know who wants to rob the caravan this time?"
Hong Feng's voice suddenly became playful, as if he was about to tell some shocking secret. His lips moved slightly, and he just said something in a voice that only two people could hear. Shi Tao's face became completely horrified.
.
"You...what did you say? You said..." Shi Tao suspected that his ears had heard wrong, and asked with his mouth wide open in disbelief. Even the wounds on his body were not as shocked as the news.
Hong Feng seemed to be very satisfied with the other party's expression, and nodded with a smile, "That's right! This mission was planned by the master of Huxia County! In your opinion, it must be ridiculous to eat your own goods, right? But what's going on here?
How can we, the lowest level cannon fodder, figure out the shady story!"
Shi Tao's expression was indifferent, and scenes kept flashing through his mind. He suddenly found that he seemed to have fallen into a very huge net. All of this had been designed and calculated, and he was just the cannon fodder to be sacrificed.
"Hey, you figured it out! If that's the case, then go die!" The two robber leaders who rushed over also sneered, and the three of them attacked Shi Tao at the same time.
Different from the chaotic situation around him, in a certain corner of the battle circle, Lin Yu was holding a blood demon in his hand and staring at his old opponent opposite.
Bai Zhan was panting vigorously, the expression on his face was a little uncertain, his hands were trembling slightly, but his mind was already in turmoil.
"How is that possible? I haven't seen him for a long time, but this guy has grown up so fast!"
He lowered his head and glanced at the darkness on his palm. The heavy blow just now almost shattered his arm. The two of them were evenly matched.
Bai Zhan thought that he had not used all his strength the last time the two of them fought, but this time he was determined to kill. Unexpectedly, he and Lin Yu were evenly matched.
Lin Yu had no time to pay attention to what the other party was thinking. He swept his eyes across the battlefield in front of him. The battle had been very fierce up to this point. Almost all the people in the Red Boat Caravan were killed or injured. Although the other party's robbers also suffered casualties, they were better with more people.
"There is nothing we can do to save the day!" Lin Yu sighed softly. He did not expect that such a huge caravan would be swallowed up in just an instant.
"Xiaoyu!" shouted into the air, and then Xiaoyu's figure roared towards him. Lin Yu jumped up and landed directly on Xiaoyu.
Seeing that Lin Yu actually chose to flee, a trace of anger flashed across Bai Zhan's face, "Don't even think about escaping!" His body was ejected and then flew directly onto the back of a camel dragon, and the driver stepped forward to pursue Lin Yu.
The actions of the two people immediately attracted the attention of the people around them, and a large number of robbers began to move closer, forming a vague double-team on Lin Yu.
