Chapter 437: Night Raid (Part 1)

Views:

Yesterday's tragedies were many. wWW!QuanBen-XiaoShuo!COm I locked myself outside the door, the weather was very hot... I guess I stayed here for a long time. If you can't go home and have to find a place to stay, don't mention updating. You don't have much money with you. Later, I saw a sign saying unlock. I asked, but the man said he wouldn't open it. I thought I was going to be homeless, so I deleted it. . Finally, I found another one and happily agreed. And it’s only fifty dollars. Not to mention fifty, I have to give you two hundred. When I got home, I sat on the stairs tiredly. I originally wanted to see how to unlock the door. As soon as I was distracted, the lock was opened with a click. It's terrible. The locks we usually trust cannot survive in the hands of professionals.

Rex's expression slowly relaxed. She looked at Salin and said, "Nelise was bullied. Are you not angry?"

Saleen was a little helpless because of Nelisse's identity. He couldn't tell Rex yet that it had nothing to do with trust. Nailisi actually relies on her life. Once her identity is revealed, I am afraid that all the magicians on the continent will become interested in her.

"Rex, don't listen to Nelise. Zola doesn't have the courage." Sikka suddenly spoke.

Nelisse glared at Sikka fiercely. But there was no further action. Rex was surprised. I was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the people around Salin were a little strange, and I couldn't see through it.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and Salin had no choice but to focus on the surrounding environment and stopped chatting with Rex. This is an ancient road, built using the Yunliu method. Although it is a dirt road in the mountains, after thousands of years, there is still no grass growing on the dirt road. There are tall trees growing on both sides of the road. This environment is suitable for thieves to rob.

The northern part of the Titan Principality has fewer rivers. Very hilly. The cities in this area are very sparsely spaced, and there are small fortresses everywhere in the countryside, with many low-level nobles.

Most of the hundreds of wineries in Bordeaux are owned by these nobles. These small nobles were very wealthy and could afford private soldiers. Logically speaking, there was little room for thieves to survive.

Titan's treatment of thieves is much crueler than Qin Yin's. Basically, once the thieves are convicted, they will be fed to the monsters. That band of thieves. I'm afraid there is some collusion with the local minor nobles.

He and his group did not attract anyone's attention when they passed through Phoenix. They changed horses in Garulan, so no one should know Rex's identity. As long as it's not a conspiracy against Rex, it won't be too troublesome. Perhaps it was the dirty behavior of these little nobles who wanted to rob the merchants.

The sky gradually darkened, and the swordsman accompanying him outside the car asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, are you on your way, or are you resting?"

"Is there a place to rest?"

"Five miles to the south, there is a small castle. The owner is a baron."

"Is this a nearby place to stay?" Salin asked.

"Titan does not allow farmers to receive merchants. This is the right of the nobles. Of course, this is also part of the nobles' income source." Rex explained to Saleen.

"Let's hurry up," Salin suggested.

"It's less than a day to get to the princess castle. Even if you put on a skeleton horse, it will still take half a day. Why?"

"That group of thieves wants us to go to the castle. The nobles here are in collusion with them."

"One. No matter how big the baron's castle is, there will only be no more than a hundred people. We can definitely solve it." Rex looked at Salin, expecting his answer.

"Maybe the baron was pushed out to die, and he didn't even know it himself. If such a thing really happened, the Princess Castle would send troops to surround us. At that time, the only way for us to get out of trouble is to reveal your identity."

"Salin, you are already a qualified partner." Rex laughed. What Salin thought of, she also thought of. That group of thieves showed up just to scare their own people. By appearing in this position sooner or later, they are taking advantage of human psychology. It will definitely be safe if you go to the castle to stay overnight.

That's not the worst thing. The worst thing is that the castle itself is a trap and you can't touch it. Once they touched the baron in the castle, Rex and others were framed as thieves, and they were thieves who killed nobles. When the time comes, local thieves will naturally come to testify, and Rex will have a hard time telling the truth.

It doesn't matter if this chain of tricks breaks down, but if you get in head first, it will be difficult to escape.

"Everyone, please work harder and let's get on our way." Rex said to the outside of the car. She comes to Titan. It was to find the third temple ruins. Not here to cause trouble. Otherwise, with the strength of her team, as long as she doesn't attack the city, she can still get away. Titan's gates are all on the line of the Princess Castle to guard against the Tangulas Empire.

The east side does not directly border Qinyin. Rex can escape at any time without being surrounded by the army.

"Let me tell everyone that if anything happens during the day, we will kill them all." After Rex finished speaking, he began to meditate.

Meditating in the magic chariot feels good, like returning to the magic tower. Although the effects are much different, one thing is the same. That is, the magician can wake up from meditation at any time. Join the fight.

At an altitude of a thousand meters, a flying puppet followed Sara's magic chariot over a red mountain ridge. In the distant wilderness, a group of thieves gathered around a gray-robed mage.

This mage is in his sixties and has two magic marks on his gray magic robe. The thief leader in pink robe asked: "Master Mage, they didn't go to the baron's castle?"

"No,

"Are they so brave that they traveled all night?" the bandit leader said somewhat depressedly. For this operation, the thieves group used all their strength. If they failed, all the gold coins invested would be wasted.

"They are just too cowardly, Argus. What you did is too obvious." The mage said lightly and destroyed the magic circle on the ground. The flying puppets in the sky immediately turned around and flew back.

The thief leader's face turned red and he said, "I didn't expect them to be so smart." At this time, he also realized that what he did was a bit casual. Since the other party is carrying a heavy treasure, how could he let it slip

"It's okay, just send the double-sided cavalry. After the red clay ridge, there is a plain. They are in front of the cavalry, and no one can escape.

"Master Mage, are you going to use double-sided iron cavalry now?" The thieves leader was somewhat reluctant. The double-faced cavalry is the foundation of the thieves group. They relied on the double-faced cavalry to resolve several noble sieges.

of.

"These people are rushing to the Princess Castle without any effort. With their speed, they can arrive after dawn, and the horses are all gone."

"In this case, please ask the mage to give me the order." The thieves leader did not hesitate anymore. Once those people entered the area controlled by the princess castle, he would be unable to take action. Although the Princess Castle is no longer the Grand Duke's residence, there are still a thousand cavalry left, as well as elite infantry from two flag regiments. Three thousand soldiers are definitely not something that his group of thieves can offend.

No matter how big the background of the thieves group is, they can't attack the princess castle. Attacking the princess castle was not only tantamount to provoking the Grand Duke, but also insulting the royal family of the Yunliu Empire. Although they have colluded with Yunliu. But there are some things that cannot be touched.

I heard that another princess in Yunliu is going to marry Titan, and the fiefdom must be near the princess castle. This hornet's nest cannot be poked into, and whoever touches it will die.

The mage seemed to have seen through the thieves leader's thoughts. He said expressionlessly: "Argus, you have already invested a lot. If you don't take action, I will still get my share."

"I understand, please give the order."

"Yes." The gray-robed mage nodded and began to rearrange the magic circle. He wanted to pass the news to the double-faced cavalry ambushed on the road, and ordinary methods would not work. If someone were sent to deliver the message, they might not be able to catch up with the convoy.

After the magic chariot climbed over the red mountains. There was a plain ahead, and the convoy slowed down. No more gestures of being in a hurry.

"Rest where you are. Rex canceled the original order. Her swordsmen were not surprised. Such changes are common during the march. The coach will always revise the plan according to the actual situation.

The camp was quickly set up. Although it was only a camp for more than 20 people, there were eight tents. Walls were made of tree trunks on both sides, and all the tree trunks were cut with spikes to avoid being attacked by cavalry from both sides.

The real defense is the magic trap outside the camp. Magicians account for nearly half of Rex's group, with only two senior swordsmen and two black iron sword masters. It is too easy to set up these magic traps. The chain of traps protects the camp. Even if the opponent has a powerful mage, it is impossible to sneak into the camp without touching these traps.

Two fourth-level mages inserted several wooden sticks into the ground from a distance. The top of the wooden sticks was inlaid with a gem. This is the mage's magic eye of detection. Like the magic wand, it is a precious piece of equipment that requires extremely special wood and gems.

After the decoration was completed, Salin had no choice but to leave the magic chariot, which was full of women. If he stayed overnight. It would be inconvenient for him to stay. Although everyone has lived together in God's Punishment Hell for a long time, this is the continent of Myers. If Salin stays in the carriage, I don't know what will happen to the swordsmen around Rex.

.

Salin did not get on another magic chariot, but sat at the entrance of the camp, staring at the plains in the distance, and stood up.

Tonight will definitely not be too peaceful. Salin just doesn't understand what is wrong with his team and will be targeted.

There were only two trucks and the ruts were not deep. What did the thieves find

There is no problem with the carriage, but the problem is with the ten senior swordsmen. The armors of these swordsmen were too expensive, so everyone's armor was sent to the merchant house. They can sell tens of thousands of gold coins. Of course thieves will treat the carriage protected by such a swordsman as fat. Saleen used water-flame alchemy to create magic armor for Rex's swordsman, although he had tried his best to hide the elemental fluctuations emitted by the armor. But it can't be hidden from a mage who is too high level.

The thieves were not a sudden move. When Salin's convoy entered the Titan Principality, the news was sold. If Salin's team entered Titan and headed south, something would have happened long ago.

Because the northern part of Titan has always been peaceful and there are no big thieves groups, the journey can be safe. They were traveling so fast that the only thieves group in the northwest ambushed them several times but missed the opportunity. Because there is a magician accompanying him. The mage in the thieves group did not let the flying puppet get too close. Therefore, it is impossible to grasp their exact route of action.

After a few mistakes, the thieves immediately changed their strategy. He wanted to trick Salin and others into going to the baron's castle. Set an ambush.

Salin didn't understand this, but he knew. Once you reach the princess castle, you are safe. There is still less than three hundred miles to go, and even if they don't change into skeletons and beggars, the convoy can arrive in half a day.
