As soon as he heard that Scarlett had been stuck outside the blockade for five days, Hatton broke into a sweat.
He knew the temperament and style of His Royal Highness the Princess.
At the moment, Hatton quickly recounted how he hurriedly ran up the city wall after hearing the screams that night, how he saw the terrifying tide of beasts he had never seen before, and how he finally discovered that these monsters were all followers of Leo...
The whole process is told one by one.
Scarlett and Ralph were stunned.
"That guy...when did he have so many warcraft pets again? It makes people think that there is a beast tide!"
"This is unbelievable!"
Scarlett and Ralph can be said to have witnessed the birth of the Knights of the Southern Cross.
When they were in the Devil's Abyss, none of these mercenaries knew each other, and they were even competitors with each other. Later, they fell into the Devil's trap and were rescued by Leo, and then everyone gathered together and fought side by side.
And later, in the recruitment war in Munich, hundreds of Adolf's Celestial Knights finally appeared in their costumes, and the identity of Leo's lone wolf magic pattern master was exposed, and this knightly order was born.
But from beginning to end, this knighthood has nothing to do with World of Warcraft. Normally, everyone in the knighthood has never seen even a single hair of Warcraft.
But now...
"What happened next? What happened to these bandits?" Scarlett asked.
"This is the result of the training of the Knights of the Southern Cross," Hatton said with a wry smile. "At the beginning, they were planning to stay here for half a month to train their knights in actual combat against bandits."
Ralph nodded.
For a knighthood, actual combat training is undoubtedly the fastest and most efficient way.
The discipline that mercenaries lack, their understanding of completely different fighting methods and norms, as well as their familiarity and execution of formations, combat coordination, etc., can all be quickly improved through actual combat training.
This will be far more memorable than being locked up in a military camp and trained with yelling and punishment.
As for Lulian, who is currently calm, these bandit groups in the northern Gobi are just natural sparring partners. Their strength is not too bad, and they are not too strong. In addition, they are all full of evil, which has always been a challenge for Lulian.
It is a chronic disease, so there is no burden to deal with it.
What's more important...these bandits have been plundering for many years and have accumulated an incredible amount of wealth. Killing one of them means a windfall.
Targeting these bandits is like killing several birds with one stone.
Hatton continued: "However, Count Leo seemed to think that half a month was too long, so he summoned these monsters... My Lord, the Holy Emperor, I have never seen such obedient monsters. They are simply all
He is a natural fighting pet."
When Hatton said this, his expression became excited.
"My lord, Lord Ralph, if you had been standing on the city wall at that time, you would have been as unbelievable as me. They trained outside the city for two days. Two days, just two days, I saw that weapon with my own eyes.
The team has changed and become scary..."
"No, no, they are scary to begin with, but when those monsters blend into their midst... I'm sorry, I can't describe it. Anyway, if it were me, I wouldn't be their enemy even to the death."
"At the beginning, each knight was only equipped with one magical beast, and the most were sixth-level magical beasts. There were also many seventh- and eighth-level magical beasts. But later, more magical beasts were integrated into it."
"Especially those hundreds of Glory Knights, each of them brought five or six Warcraft, as well as their elves and magicians, all of whom owned Warcraft. They even formed an armored terrain dragon knight battalion, and gave it to the dwarves The heavily armored warrior is equipped with a snow demon elephant as a mount..."
"I am also a knight, but if I lead the army against them, I can't even think of a way for my horse to overcome fear and approach them, let alone charge. I estimate that as soon as they move, my position will be destroyed. It will collapse, and ordinary war horses simply cannot bear such an aura."
"In the early morning of the fourth day, they set off. They were divided into more than a dozen groups and entered the Gobi."
"Because I needed to assist with logistics and escorting prisoners, I sent my guard captain there, and he witnessed everything with his own eyes. Do you want to ask him to come? Well, I said the same thing anyway..."
"To put it simply, it was a massacre. The desert may be mysterious and dangerous to ordinary people, but for them with the help of elf hunters and those magical beasts, it is like their own back garden. They can easily Then we found the robbers."
"They are like a cat catching a mouse, using those bandits for training. They only invest one-tenth of the bandits' strength each time."
"Holy Emperor, my guard captain came back and told me that he originally hated those bandits and wished he could catch them all and burn them at the stake. But that day, he actually sympathized with those bandits..."
"In less than ten prayers, the five groups of bandits closest to Musha City were wiped out. Then they continued to march into the depths of the Gobi and wiped out a total of thirteen bandit groups. In the past two days, the bandits who were escorted from the depths of the Gobi were There were so many bandits that I had to ask the Grand Duke to execute some of the most heinous ones."
As he said that, Hatton looked at the direction of the prisoners with a frown, "But even so, this place is overcrowded. The Grand Duke has already sent troops over. I just hope they don't waste time on the way. Get these guys away quickly and send them to the mine." Go and give them a good whip..."
Scarlett and Ralph no longer listened to Hatton's complaints. They only stared at each other in shock.
After a moment, Scarlett suddenly turned around and walked towards the carriage.
"Go find a hotel. I want to take a bath," she ordered. "Ralph, saddle up the horse for me."
"Miss Ma, what are you..." Ralph asked.
"I can't follow behind like this," Scarlett turned her head and looked at Ralph, "Ralph, you know what I want to do, don't you? If I just follow and watch from a distance, I have no chance. ."
"Miss, you..." Ralph's forehead was sweating.
"Catch up and join the Knights of the Southern Cross." Scarlett bit her lip and said, "As long as I can tie him to the family, I am willing to pay any price!"
After taking a bath, changing her long skirt into a long coat, wearing a cloak and tight breeches, Scarlett galloped out of the city, surrounded by Ralph and twelve escorting knights.
Two days later, the group finally saw the team winding forward in the plain below on the top of a mountain deep in the Gobi.
The moment they saw this team, everyone fell into deathly silence.
Viewed from a height, the Gobi Desert is desolate and vast.
On the distant horizon, the sunset is like blood. The fiery red clouds blow in from the distance with the howling wind, one after another, constantly changing shapes and colors.
On the ground, the dust and sand were blown by the wind into shapes like waves. Occasionally, the wind would pick up the dust and violently roll the dust and sand into the sky, forming swimming pillars of sand.
The team was moving forward between the sand pillars.
Their formation was so neat that even the pace of the horses was the same. The wind tore their flags and raised their cloaks. The setting sun ignited their forest-like lances and reflected their armor red.
And beside them, there are countless various magical beasts.
Thousands of various magical beasts were moving across the land like dark clouds.
Following their footsteps, the earth trembled and dust flew. In the distance, wild beasts living in the Gobi were fleeing in all directions.
Until this moment, no one really understood the meaning of the word "terrible" mentioned repeatedly in Hatton's words.
"The holy land is above," one of the guard knights swallowed hard and said, "The lowest level ones are all three-eyed bears."
Everyone looked at the herd in silence. Among them, there were at least a thousand three-eyed bears, twisting their huge and fat bodies and moving forward slowly.
Everyone knows that an adult three-eyed bear weighs five tons. When a person stands up, it is nearly four meters high. The huge bear paw has unparalleled power. With just one palm, it can
Shoot down a big tree surrounded by two people.
If you are patting someone on the head, it is easier than patting a watermelon.
Their teeth and claws are also terrifying weapons. Armor made of fine iron is as fragile as a paper shell under their claws.
Normally, this violent fifth-level monster is very difficult to capture, and even more difficult to tame.
The price of a three-eyed bear cub in the market is tens of thousands of gold. It takes seven or eight years to tame it into adulthood and become a qualified war pet. The elimination rate is close to 100%.
ninety.
But now, there are thousands of them here.
What's even more frightening is that they are only the lowest level among these monsters.
"How did he do it?" murmured Ralph.
"Let's go," Scarlett turned the horse's head, "it's best to ask him this question in person!"
However, what Scarlett didn't expect was that when they finally circled down the hillside after a prayer and caught up with the team, only a few old knights greeted them.
"Sorry, Miss Scarlett, Leo has left."
"He has some things to deal with and needs to rush to the north first."
