Roy's body flashed and he walked silently through the jungle. After a few ups and downs, he climbed up a hillside, hid behind a big tree, and looked around.
I saw a group of people fighting fiercely in the forest clearing below the hillside.
On one side were forty or fifty bandits, wearing all kinds of armor, waving their sabers, shouting and riding their horses to kill.
Among these bandits were seven or eight mercenaries formed back to back and six dwarves protected by them.
The two parties were obviously chasing each other all the way from the official road. Looking from Roy's direction, one could see two overturned freight carriages, scattered packages of goods, and vehicles rushing down the roadbed from the turn of the official road in front.
rut marks.
After watching for a while, Roy frowned.
There are many bandits in the Redemption Continent, and they are running rampant without stopping for three hundred years. Not to mention in remote provinces like Lulian, even in the imperial capital, they can't stop them all and kill them all.
To a certain extent, the rules and laws of the human world only exist in cities and areas that lords and armies can control. And on the edge of cities, in the deep mountains and old forests where monsters are rampant, in the barren and cold wilderness,
Mountains, but they are all ruled by bandits.
It can even be said that the territory occupied by these bandits is far wider than that of the imperial royal family and lords.
They have no land to grow food, and their survival relies on robbery. They have one person and two horses, killing people and stealing goods, and they come and go like the wind. If human cities and lord castles are compared to islands in the vast ocean, then. These bandits are surrounded by
Sharks cruising around the island.
All of this is determined by the harsh living environment of the Redemption Land. This is why in previous wars, even if Fei Lie's army came to the city, ordinary people could not escape.
Some port cities in southern Lullian are okay. Because the land is relatively fertile, the distance between cities is not far, so the refugees still have a chance of survival when fleeing their homes. But if they are placed in the north of Munich, there will be no bandits.
The vast Gobi desert is just looking for death.
Roy was not surprised to see a group of bandits robbing travelers on the road.
What surprised him was that he found that although these bandits were wearing various leather armors and holding different weapons, they looked like a gang of gangsters who committed murder and smuggling goods. However, if he looked closely, he could see that these people were tough and capable.
The attack cover turned out to be quite methodical.
There are rules for bandits to plunder, but this is definitely not the case.
Roy has so much experience in this area. Even if the other party can cover it up, he can still detect the difference between them and ordinary bandits through their advance, retreat, movement and cooperation.
This kind of rules is the rules for killing people on the battlefield!
These so-called bandits turned out to be a well-trained army!
Who are they? Why are they disguised as bandits?
With confusion in his heart, Roy focused his attention on the mercenaries and dwarves trapped in the center.
When Roy arrived, the battle had obviously been going on for some time. There were already many corpses lying on the ground. Most of them were mercenaries, coachmen and men who were killed during the resistance, as well as a dwarf.
, also fell in a pool of blood.
It is not difficult to see that among the attacked team, the dwarves are the employers, and these mercenaries are the guards they hired.
The situation looked very bad to them.
Although these mercenaries fought bravely under the leadership of a strong mercenary captain, the gap between strength and number was too great, and they seemed to be on the verge of collapse at this moment. If it weren't for the six dwarves who were also very strong, each carrying a
If you use a big ax or hammer to help defend, I'm afraid they would have collapsed long ago.
Roy was already curious when he saw those alien mercenaries in the mountains. But now he was even more surprised to see dwarves hiring human mercenaries to transport goods.
You know, based on his understanding of the dwarves, these grumpy guys are unwilling to leave their dungeon.
In normal transactions, human caravans arrive in the underground city regularly and exchange corresponding supplies for steel products or ores produced by the dwarves. In so many years, Roy has never seen the dwarves transport supplies themselves.
Unexpectedly, this time I actually saw a dwarf caravan hiring human mercenaries.
Just as soon as I changed my mind, the fighting on the field had reached a fever pitch. Under the attack of dozens of bandits, the formation of the mercenaries and dwarves was compressed again, and it had reached the point where they were huddled back to back. Many mercenaries on the periphery were
He was scarred, panting, and could only fight.
Seeing that the formation of the mercenaries was about to collapse, at this moment, the strong mercenary in the lead suddenly roared: "Fight them!"
Following this roar, the mercenaries and dwarves trapped in the center turned around at the same time, as if they had received some kind of hidden instruction, and formed a fusiform assault formation, concentrating their forces to launch a breakout. And the direction they chose to break through,
It's this side of Roy.
Roy hadn't paid much attention to the melee just now. But at this moment, when these mercenaries faced him, he was shocked to find that the strong mercenary captain who rushed at the front was actually the one who faced the Black Skeleton Bandits.
Alder, the captain of the Fierce Light Squadron who fought alongside him.
By his side were his wife Shara, as well as members of the Fierce Light Team such as Trek and Thomas whose lives he had saved.
Why are they?
Before Roy could come to his senses, the situation on the field was already in chaos.
The breakout of Alder and others caught the bandits by surprise.
These bandits didn't expect that the mercenary captain's roar was a signal to break out. They didn't expect that the already cooked duck would want to fly away!
Although their number was two or three times that of their opponents, they had been encircled before and their personnel were relatively scattered. And Alder and others' breakthrough was concentrated in one direction. Therefore, in terms of local strength, the two sides suddenly had a reverse.
.
And more importantly, because the mercenaries were the main force in the previous battles, the six dwarves were protected and took very few shots. Therefore, the bandits focused their attention on Alder and others.
On his body, he did not take any major precautions against the few dwarves.
But at this moment, when Alder gave the signal, the mercenaries of the Lieguang Squad did not rush to the front.
They divided into two rows, and used moves that were almost fatal, to push back the bandits on both sides, forming a passage. But the six dwarves let out a violent roar at the same time, and ran out of the passage with their short legs, like
Like six crazy rhinoceroses, they crashed into the group of bandits who were intercepting them.
When the screams rang out, Roy on the hillside couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
No one knows the fighting style of the dwarf race and their terrifying impact better than Roy.
This group of bad-tempered dwarves are born with supernatural powers. Although they are short in stature, they are strong and strong. In addition, they spend all their time forging iron and mining, and their strength is so strong that only a few orcs can compare with it.
In addition, they are born with a pair of short legs and an extremely stable chassis. When charging, they are more advantageous than those taller races.
A dwarf warrior wearing heavy armor launches a charge. The impact can even compete head-on with a war horse inspired by fighting spirit. Moreover, the weapons in their hands are either battle axes or war hammers. They specialize in the lower three routes and dance wildly along the way, regardless of whether it is the horse's legs.
Even human legs will break if touched.
During the war between humans and demons, the dwarves killed countless demon cavalry with this move.
They are small in nature, and when they rush into the enemy's formation, they like to roll on the ground and cut the legs of horses. They are like rows of iron balls rolling on the ground, which is difficult to deal with and gives the demon cavalry a big headache. In the later stage, the demon cavalry
As soon as he saw groups of dwarf warriors, he simply responded with mounted archery instead of charging with them.
From this, you can imagine what it would be like to be knocked into the crowd by six dwarves who had been preparing for a long time.
On the hillside, Roy only saw six short and sturdy figures rushing into the group of bandits, hitting and slashing them, killing them until they were on their backs. Every time the battle ax was swung in his hand, there would be a splash of blood, and every time the war hammer dropped,
, all screams of broken bones and broken muscles.
In an instant, five robbers fell in a pool of blood. Each one of them was smashed into a human shape.
But just when Roy saw that the dwarf was about to break through the encirclement, suddenly, four lightning-like figures rushed over from the flanks.
Glory Knight!
Looking at the eight battle rings whirling around the four bandits, Roy's pupils suddenly shrank.
"Want to run? Go back!"
Boom! There was a loud noise. A dwarf who had just broken out of the encirclement was stabbed by a spear from a knight of glory. Although he blocked the tip of the spear with the blade of his battle ax and was not injured, his whole body was still under the terrifying impact.
He staggered back seven or eight steps and fell into a tight siege again.
Next to this dwarf, several other dwarf companions were also faced with the obstruction of three other Glory Knights who were flying towards them.
Looking at the rushing Glory Knights, their ferocious faces, and the circling battle rings, Alder and the others all had expressions of despair on their faces.
Relying on the impact of these dwarf employers to break through was a tactic set by Alder, and it was also their last chance to survive. But he never dreamed that just when he was about to succeed, four enemies appeared from the opponent.
This glorious knight is like an iron gate, blocking his way out!
If the momentum of this breakout is blocked, then the next second, the swarming bandits will drag them into a heavy siege again.
At that time, they had absolutely no strength to launch a second breakout.
However, what Alder did not expect was that this scene would also fall into the eyes of a black-haired boy he once knew on the hillside.
Help!
At this time, Roy had no hesitation. He immediately dodged and appeared from behind the big tree. When the long sword was taken off from his back, it had turned into a long bow.
