The journey to the capital this time will take at least a month. The slowest team is horse-drawn carriages, and no one walks on legs at all. The Lion Mercenary Group is really luxurious. There are 500 people on the road in total, and the princess is close
There are 300 guard knights, and the remaining 200 are members of the mercenary group. For this commissioned task, the Lion Mercenary Group really spent a lot of money and bought a large number of carriages for the people to ride on. The reward is also considerable.
This is a transaction of 20,000 gold coins, which is enough to pay their mercenary group for two years.
They walked for more than ten days without incident, and the team would only stop when it was time to eat and sleep. Colen and the ordinary mercenaries were crowded into a large carriage. This kind of carriage was usually loaded with cargo, but it only had a shed.
These days, Kelen finally had time to study what abilities his body had. The results he discovered shocked him. All living things could be corroded and devoured, regardless of animals or plants. But he only had a superficial understanding of other aspects.
Applications have not yet been developed.
It was another sunny day, and the team continued to move towards the destination. Column had not seen the naughty and cute little princess these days, so he took it for granted that she thought his status was too low. He was bored and drove along.
He looked out of the carriage window and tested his eyesight. While he was looking, he vaguely saw many people hiding in the bushes in the distance, all with sharp weapons in their hands. "No, there are so many of us.
Everyone will be robbed. Are you ambushing others?" Kelen thought for a while and finally kept a low profile. After all, this was not a distance that normal people could see.
When the team came to the edge of the forest, Coren subconsciously closed his eyes and waited for something to happen. Sure enough, shouts of death came from all directions. Then the team captains called their men to set up their formations, and there was chaos outside.
A pot of porridge. By the time Colen got out of the carriage, the enemy and we had already begun to confront each other.
This group of bandits blocking the road seemed to number at least 1,000 people. The leader was an unusually burly, bald man. Next to him was a much smaller man who had his face covered at all.
The strong man shouted in this direction, his voice like a broken gong: "Robbery, those who want to survive throw their weapons on the ground. Anyone who resists will be killed!"
Since there was no numerical advantage, the morale of the mercenary group declined. However, Colen breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: "It seems they are not looking for me."
At this time, the masked man whispered something to the tough man. Then the tough guy added: "The woman must stay! The man can throw down his weapon and leave at will!"
At this time, Karl was already riding a horse and standing with Kuboom, and asked Kuboom: "How is it? Are you confident in dealing with these people?"
Kuboom touched his beard, and then said: "It should be no problem to rush out, but don't plan to kill 1,000 people with 500 people."
"In that case, execute the plan I told you." Karl remained expressionless.
"But you will be in danger, so let's cut off the rear." Kuboom was quite responsible.
"I'm worried after you break up." Karl threw a heavy bomb at that time, causing Kuboom's face to turn red and white.
"Okay. Since you are so insistent..." Kuboom was completely convinced, and he was not sure that he could withstand 1,000 people.
"Go, take the princess away. Protect her no matter what the cost. By the way, let that Colum go with the princess. He is still young and it is not worth dying here." Karl has not forgotten that Colum is also in the team.
.
"As you wish, Your Highness," Kuboom replied with respect.
At this time, Coren was also crowded in the crowd behind, listening carefully. Although the sound of their conversation was not loud, it was all heard in his ears. He also knew that Karl was about to break the back to resist 1,000 people. The impression value greatly increased.
Kuboom passed on the order and waited for the prince's order. Shana was sitting in the carriage looking out to watch the excitement, and found that Colon was being led towards her. "Hi, Colon. You too
It's really not fun to come to play with me if you don't tell me." Shana didn't have the consciousness of being a princess at all, which made the guards beside the carriage lower their heads.
"Haha, I'm here right now. I kept the princess waiting for a long time." Coren actually had the same virtue as her.
"Come, come to my carriage, I still have many questions to ask you." Shana started winking again.
Coren got on the carriage and sat opposite Shana. He never imagined what the princess was up to. When Coren sat down, Shana took out a paper and pen, and then asked like a barrage: "Tell me your story."
Height, weight, hobbies, occupation, and level? Oh, and whether you are disabled..."
Kelen had a big head and asked stupidly: "Do you have to answer all of these?..."
After a while, Kelen's form was finished. Shana took the piece of paper and read it carefully while saying: "Kelen. Male. He is 14 years old. Height is 165cm and weight is 60kg. Hehe, he is taller than me.
I gained 15kg."
He looked at the depressed expression on the opposite side of Column and continued to read: "Profession, thief. Level, junior."
After reading this, he looked at Column again and asked: "How are you doing with your thieves skills?"
"Except for sneaking and sprinting, I basically don't know anything else." Coren replied smoothly.
"Can't you even steal or disarm traps?" Shana was simply looking at a monster.
"Since I basically didn't spend money before, I have never stolen anything. And if there is a trap, I will go around it instead of taking the risk to disarm it."
"No? Then how did you get promoted from a trainee thief to a junior thief? Don't tell me you paid for it." Shana stared at him maliciously.
"You look down on me so much. I was promoted based on my strength!" Colen was a little confused. Because the two skills of this thief were trained by Dals, and the skills have been trained to the level of a senior thief, but other skills
It's so miserable.
"Don't be angry, keep your manners in front of ladies." Shana smiled at him.
Then Shana read the entire paper ramblingly, with a lot of sarcasm and blow mixed in. Finally, she smiled at Column and said: "Actually, I heard Kuboom say that you are in the sharp blade mercenary group Dar
You grew up under the care of Dals, and you share the same love as father and son. However, Dals has disappeared recently, and his life and death are unknown."
"Yes, I just want to go to the capital to ask the principal Nicks you mentioned to see if he can help me."
"I haven't seen him for a long time. I have been in poor health. In order to go to the Elf Kingdom to treat me, even brother Karl took a leave of absence from school with me. Alas~" Shana sighed.
"Are you sick? Why can't I tell?" Kelen shot back slightly.
"Hmph! You haven't been caught by me for so many days. Isn't this proof?" Shana pouted her cute little mouth again.
When Coren thought about it, it was true that they were the only two peers in the entire team who had the same language. It was indeed suspicious that they hadn't bothered him for so many days.
"Then why haven't you recovered from your illness? Could it be that the Elf Kingdom's medical level can't cure you?" Colen asked.
"This time I went to the Elf Kingdom for consultation and came to the conclusion that 'it's not that it can't be cured, but that there's no cure'." Shana said frustratedly.
"What kind of disease do you have? How come there is no cure?"
While the two of them were still chatting, the war was about to break out. Karl led 200 guard knights to protect the sides and rear of the team. The remaining 100 followed the princess, and the remaining 200 mercenaries were concentrated in front of the team, 500 of them.
A diamond-shaped overall square array was formed, ready to break out of the encirclement at any time.
"It seems that you are going to destroy yourself?" The bald man raised the giant ax in his hand and shouted towards Karl with gritted teeth.
Karl waved his hand forward expressionlessly, and Kuboom shouted: "Kill out! Kill!"
Although the combat effectiveness of the mercenaries was uneven and the formations were uneven, the masters among them were really good. Under the leadership of several captains, they bravely charged into the oncoming enemy group.
When Coren heard the shouting of killing outside, he looked outside. Shana didn't take it seriously, as it seemed to be a common occurrence. Coren was surprised to see that Shana didn't have any nervous emotions. "Have you seen through life and death? Why don't you do anything?
Move?"
Shana smiled contemptuously: "Humph. I have encountered too many such things in my life. And I am so seriously ill, so maybe death is the solution."
Coren's surprise was written on his face. This naughty and cute girl actually saw through life and death. His impression of Shana was greatly increased. "How come there are so many people who want to harm you and His Highness Karl?" Coren had already told Shana.
Na becomes his friend.
"I don't know about this, but it's me they want to harm, and brother Karl was implicated just to protect me." Shana felt a little depressed.
"Ah! By the way, in this breakout, His Highness Karl will have to resist 1,000 people! This is too dangerous!" Colen thought of this incident.
"Haha, don't worry. Brother Karl is very powerful. There are few people in the country who can rival him. Even in our human kingdom, he is among the top 10."
"So powerful? Then isn't His Highness Karl a saint?"
"You are right, he is a saint. But he has never been to the temple to advance, and he said it was a false reputation..." Shana then mumbled and complained again.
"No wonder there is no saint-level figure in the mainland with his name." Now Colon finally figured out why Kuboom was so convinced of Karl. But in fact, this was not the reason at all.
At this time, the carriage the two of them were sitting in began to move forward, indicating that the mercenary group's breakthrough had already had an effect. It is undeniable that Kuboom's strength is also well-known. As a senior martial artist, he never uses weapons, because his body is
The best weapon.
Soon the mercenaries opened a breakthrough, and only a few dozen people were lost. Then all the knights of the guard rushed out, protecting the carriage and mixed with the mercenaries.
"Chase them, don't let them run away." The bald man's broken gong voice sounded again.
When the carriage broke out of the encirclement, the knights of the guard on both sides and behind slowed down and began to entangle with the enemy. Karl also took the lead and fought bravely to kill the enemy. It was not until Shana's convoy could no longer be seen with the naked eye that he gave up a little.
Had some snacks.
"Karl! Don't think you, a Broken Saint-level warrior, can withstand it for long!" Broken Luo's throat was still very penetrating, and even the deaf were disturbed by the noise.
The masked man said something to the bald head again, and then the bald head laughed happily. "Haha, great. This makes me feel relieved." Then he rode towards Karl on horseback.
"Come on, Karl. Let's compete." The bald man came to the opposite side of Karl.
"You should be Tiger? The federal arrest warrant has been hanging for 10 years, and you still dare to come back to cause trouble. You are so courageous." Karl looked at the bald head and said smoothly.
"You know who I am, how dare you come to cut off the queen? Is Tiger Tiger a vegetarian?" He bared his teeth as he spoke.
"That's a lot to talk about. Humph." Karl responded expressionlessly.
"Die! Damn you little white-faced boy!" Tiger was enraged and raised his ax to strike in the air. The two were less than 20 meters apart, and Tiger's fighting spirit blade was in front of Karl in an instant.
The princess motorcade on the other side was speeding, but little Shana inside was not in any nervous mood. "Hey, Coren. Do you have any lofty ambitions?" The princess, who had no airs at all, had already become friends with Coren.
My friend said that. In fact, both of them are microphones.
"Haha, lofty ambitions? Don't make fun of me. What ambitions can a humble commoner like me have?" Coren no longer regarded her as a princess, and threw aside all his respectful words.
"Then if you find your father, will you still become a mercenary?"
"I'm not a mercenary to begin with, I just grew up in a mercenary group."
"Oh. So you never went to school?"
"No. My knowledge is accumulated in daily life. Going to school is the right of the nobles." Coren and Shana looked at each other.
"Since you have no goals now, how about becoming my knight guard? I already have your resume information." He also took out the piece of paper filled with Column's information and waved it in front of him.
"Ah? Don't tell me that you had your mind set on me a long time ago..." A big drop of cold sweat flowed from Colon's head.
"No, it's nothing. Haha..." Shana's smile looked so fake no matter what.
"You have to give me a reason, otherwise the devil will agree." Coren squinted at Shana's face.
"Hey, this is a royal secret. If you find out, you will be beheaded." Shana said in a low voice.
"Then don't tell me. I don't want to be a knight anyway, especially yours."
"Haha, look how scared you are. If the knights of the Guards were as timid as you, then we would have been caught by those bandits long ago." Shana continued to laugh loudly without giving Column any face.
Even the knights outside could hear the princess' happy laughter...
Looking at the battle on Karl's side, it has fallen into a stalemate. Neither the enemy nor we seem to have the idea of defeating the other side, but are just delaying time. It is understandable that Karl is delaying time, but why is Tiger delaying time?
This was something Karl didn't expect, and he didn't have time to think about it. Because he had been entangled with Tiger for 20 minutes, the two of them fought from horse to horse, and there was no chance to think about other things.
Tiger was actually close to the saint level 10 years ago, when he was only in his 30s. Because he offended the royal family of the human kingdom at that time, he was wanted with a reward. In the end, he was forced to exile to a foreign area. However, the reason for offending the royal family has gradually
Forgotten by the world. Carl was only a 10-year-old child at the time and didn't know anything about it. He only knew that he was a wanted criminal.
"Come on, brat. You'd better give me a surprise! Don't act like a bitch!" Tiger kept yelling and cursing while fighting.
In sharp contrast to Tiger, Karl was unmoved at all and didn't even say a word. But finally Karl caught the opportunity and suddenly burst out with fighting energy. As a holy-level magic swordsman, his attack power was higher than that of all other systems.
Above the Saint level. Although pure fighting spirit has strong close control, it is difficult to hit the enemy. Although pure magic has super strong control ability, only relatively low-level spells can be cast instantly. Others either require guidance or need
Magic preparation time.
When Karl's fighting spirit broke out, the outer layer of his body was surrounded by visible golden fighting spirit. Tiger was startled by the sudden burst of fighting spirit and hurriedly hid aside.
Karl immediately blessed himself with two more magics, which surprised Tigel. He said another curse word: "Damn it. A holy-level wind magic swordsman?"
"What? Are you scared?" Karl finally opened his mouth to speak, which was not easy.
"I'm afraid of a big watermelon! Fight!" Tiger cursed angrily, and was tightly wrapped in red fighting spirit, which seemed to be real.
"?" Karl looked at his red personal fighting spirit and his brows gradually furrowed.
"Hmph. If I were so easy to deal with, I wouldn't have been able to escape 10 years ago." Tiger said mockingly to himself.
"It seems that you really are not in vain. I take back my previous contempt for you." Karl said expressionlessly.
"I have been despised for half my life, and I don't care if it's more or less." Tiger said indifferently.
"I just want to know why you came to kidnap Shana. This is not foreign territory." Karl took this opportunity to ask.
"You mean that princess? How could I know? I'm just here to trouble the damn royal family." Tiger seemed to really not know.
"Thank you, I understand. But not everyone in the royal family deserves to die." Karl actually thanked the guy opposite who insulted the royal family.
"So what if everyone deserves to die? I'm just here to cause trouble. Let's fight." Without waiting for a reply, he turned into a red light and rushed towards Karl.
While Karl was fighting with him again, something happened on Shana's side. A guard reported to the princess: "Report to Her Royal Highness. An unknown crowd appeared in the direction we were going, and the number was huge." By this time, the convoy had already arrived.
Stopped.
Shana turned to look at Column, and then said to the guard: "Who are they? How far away are they from us?"
"I can't see clearly who he is, but he is about two kilometers away from us. Your Royal Highness," the guard replied.
"Go down and tell Kuboom that we will take a detour." Shana gave the order to the guards.
"Wait, let me take a look first." Kelen didn't have many friends, and he didn't want anything to happen to Shana.
Coren jumped off the carriage and ran up to the tallest tree nearby, "Hey, you're pretty good at it." At this time, Shanna hadn't forgotten to tease his new friend.
Looking up, there were indeed many people in the distance. When Coren focused on his eyes, what he saw almost made him fall from the tree. "Oh my god. There are skeletons everywhere."
When she returned to the carriage and told what she saw, Shana's already fair little face lost the last of its color. She said with a guilty conscience: "Brother Karl will come over to save us?"
"I'm afraid it's too late..." Coren unintentionally hit Shana again.
