Riding on horseback, Zhao Yanxun led a group of palace guards and went straight to the east.
Those thieves killed Qin Hao's troops and left seven or eight corpses behind, which is enough to show that their strength is average, at least from Zhao Yanxun's level.
This time, the thirty or so palace guards he led were all upgraded to first-class soldiers, and they all wore iron armor, making it easy to kill the bandits.
What's more, there is Zhao Yanxun himself, a figure who can be called the God of War.
Zhao Yanxun had no worries about the success or failure of the annihilation of the gangsters. He just wanted to crush these ants as soon as possible to make himself feel better.
Although Zhao Yanxun has system perception, this thing is too physically demanding, which is equivalent to him attacking with all his strength.
According to his current physical strength, Zhao Yanxun can activate his perception for twenty-five minutes continuously.
But this is only theoretical. Zhao Yanxun must have a hand at all times, so his spare physical strength has never been less than ten minutes.
In other words, every fifteen minutes Zhao Yanxun walked forward, he had to stop and rest for half an hour. After his physical strength was fully restored, he would continue moving forward.
It was only seven or eight miles from where Qin Hao and others were stationed to the foot of Wutai Mountain. Even though perception would slow down the journey, Zhao Yanxun arrived at the foot of the mountain in less than an hour.
The smell is still there, but this is not the point. The point is that Zhao Yanxun senses that the density of zombies in the mountains ahead is not small.
This made him wonder, if those thieves lived in the mountains, how did they survive?
At this time, Lin Dagui said from the side: "Your Majesty, there is a rotten smell coming out of the mountain. There must be many monsters in it!"
Zhao Yanxun said calmly: "What? Are you afraid?"
"My lord, you are looking down on me. No matter how bad the monsters are, they are just minced meat under my sword. How can I be afraid of them!" Lin Dagui said bluntly, he really didn't take zombies seriously.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "You should be afraid or you should be afraid, don't be careless... If something happens to someone else, it will be my king's face that will be lost!"
Lin Dagui quickly said yes. Even though he was a very talented person and bold, and his subordinates were highly skilled in martial arts, he was still wary at this moment.
Then he yelled behind him: "Did you hear that? Everyone, please be energetic!"
All the guards nodded. Although they had extremely high force values and even though they had the strongest protective measures, they were still like babies at this moment, carefully following Zhao Yanxun into the forest.
After entering the mountain, the road inside was particularly difficult, and most of the time they took the wrong path.
Ouch...
Listening to the howling in the distance, Zhao Yanxun said slowly: "There are monsters coming from the north. Please try to reduce the noise as much as possible to avoid attracting more monsters!"
"Yes!" Lin Dagui nodded.
Then Zhao Yanxun didn't care about the zombies and focused on searching for traces.
That's right, in addition to smell, he can also track the thief's whereabouts based on traces.
The activities of zombies are irregular and very different from the walking tracks of humans. With Zhao Yanxun's strong perception, it is still easy to separate them.
They wanted to continue walking north, but unfortunately they only went a few dozen feet before they encountered zombies.
If they are in an open area, they can go around on horseback to save time.
But that's not possible in the mountains. There is only one road, and they must rush away from the zombies.
Zombies were attacking in front of them. With Lin Dagui's wave of his hand, the guards on horseback rushed forward with their swords raised, directly hitting the zombies head-on.
There were only ten guards dispatched, and the place was too small for so many people to squeeze in, but more than twenty zombies gathered there.
"Lin Dagui, I count to ten. If they fail to kill these monsters, it means you are not leading the team well!"
The sudden test caught Lin Dagui a little off guard, but he didn't worry too much.
"Your Majesty, don't worry about me leading the troops!"
At this time, Zhao Yanxun didn't talk nonsense with him, but directly remembered the number.
"one……"
"two……"
"three……"
The guards were killing them, and no matter how ferocious the zombies were in time, it was hard for the guards to do anything.
Lin Dagui is not worried that his men will be injured. He is only worried that they will run out of time. As long as there is such a possibility, he will worry.
Clenching his fists and looking at the zombies rushing towards each other crazily, Lin Dagui mentally cheered for his men.
"seven……"
"eight……"
There are still the last six, you bastards should hurry up... Lin Dagui was already scolding him in his heart.
"Nine……"
"ten!"
After the last count, two more zombies appeared on the scene and pounced on the guards unusually. Lin Dagui failed to complete the test.
At this moment, Lin Dagui could only lower his head and say: "Your Majesty, I am willing to be punished!"
In fact, even Zhao Yanxun found it harsh to only give him ten seconds to kill, so he did not intend to punish him too harshly.
"After returning to the city, except for the time on duty, the rest will be used for training, which will last ten days!"
"As you command!"
By this time, the guards had killed all the zombies.
At this moment, Zhao Yanxun did not detect a living zombie within fifty meters, so they could continue moving forward.
Everyone continued to walk forward. Lin Dagui wanted to scold his men, but after all, the place was not right.
So at this moment, he could only hope to find the thief soon and do a better job by himself, so that he could save face in front of Zhao Yanxun.
He, Lin Dagui, is the commander-in-chief of the left guard in front of the palace, and the soldiers he leads must be the strongest.
Putting aside Lin Dagui's thoughts, Zhao Yanxun was looking for traces and continued walking to the north, where the mountain roads were even more winding and rugged.
It is almost winter now, and the cold wind in the mountains is blowing the yellow leaves covering the ground, creating a gloomy atmosphere.
The horse's hooves trampled on the dead leaves, making a "papa" sound in the mountain forest. This is an inevitable situation.
In time, Zhao Yanxun tried his best to reduce the noise, but several waves of zombies were still attracted, which slowed down their movement.
Of course, they always kill all the attacking zombies with zero casualties.
From the time they entered the mountain to now, they have walked continuously for more than ten miles.
Once we reached the ridge, just when Zhao Yanxun thought the road was still long, a village appeared on the top of the mountain ahead.
This is a true village, surrounded by tight and solid walls, which can firmly guard against dangers outside.
Is this a den of thieves?
In order to prevent something from happening, Zhao Yanxun turned on the system perception, checked it carefully, and finally determined that this was a den of thieves.
Who would have thought that there is such a village hidden in this vast mountain.
Giving up riding, Zhao Yanxun led the team to a high place where they could observe the situation in the village.
The distance was only a few dozen feet, and even Lin Dagui could clearly see that tables and banquets were being set up in the village, and it looked like a "banquet" was going to be held.
"These bastards robbed something yesterday. Could it be that they are holding a celebration banquet today?" Lin Dagui cursed fiercely.
Zhao Yanxun's expression was gloomy, and he only heard him say calmly: "Bring people around and use this king's sound of arrows as a signal. Don't let anyone go!"
"As you command!"
After receiving the order, leaving only two guards behind, Lin Dagui took the others and quietly went to the village.
There are many trees around, so they can easily hide their whereabouts. The only difficulty is the zombies near the village.
