A caravan set out from Fergus City. This was the caravan that the Fergus family transported medicinal materials to the Sidney family.
According to the pharmaceutical refining cooperation agreement between the Fergus family and the Sidney family last year, the Fergus family will provide medicinal materials to the Sidney family for a long time, and the Sidney family will provide pharmacists to refine these medicinal materials into finished medicines for export. , allowing both parties to earn profits from it.
This cooperation can bring tens of thousands of benefits to the Fergus family every year, even higher than the Fergus family's annual tax income.
Among this caravan, there is obviously a carriage that is more luxurious than other carriages. The person sitting in the carriage is Gray.
Viscount Fergus initially disagreed with Gray's proposal to "travel", but in the end Gray convinced him.
Although he was a little younger in age, he already had the strength of a fierce blood warrior, so there was no big problem in terms of safety. It was also an experience to travel out, so in the end Viscount Fergus agreed.
He is now taking the Fergus family's carriage to Sidney City, and then transfers to the caravan in Sidney City heading for the Marquis of Oka, and the Marquis of Oka is where the map is.
As the largest and most prosperous city in the territory of the Marquis of Sidney, Sidney City often has caravans coming from other marquis territories, and it is a huge transit station.
If you want to board a caravan that can go to other marquis territories, this place is the most suitable.
The next morning, the caravan had already sailed far away from the Viscounty of Fergus.
hold head high-
Suddenly, there was a rapid honking of horses, and Gray felt that the carriage he was riding in suddenly stopped suddenly, then turned quickly, and finally stopped hastily.
Outside the carriage, there were constant noises. Gray raised his eyebrows slightly and jumped out of the carriage.
Suddenly, all the carriages were driven together and formed a circle.
Outside the carriage, dozens of Fergus family guards drew their weapons and guarded the carriage.
In the distance, dozens of people surrounded the caravan with murderous intent.
These people were dressed differently and had different weapons. The only thing they had in common was that they all looked murderous and looked towards the caravan with fierce wolf-like eyes.
There is no doubt that this is a robber!
"Master Gray, it's too dangerous here. Please get into the carriage."
Seeing Gray getting off the carriage, a middle-aged man ran over and said anxiously.
The middle-aged man has slightly darker skin and a thin build. His clothes are much better than those of commoners, but much worse than those of nobles. This is the steward of the caravan from the Fergus family.
Thinking that Gray was worried because he met the robber, he quickly comforted him.
"Don't worry, Master Gray. With Lord Corgi here, these robbers will be driven back soon..."
Lord Corgi is one of the seven, no, now eight, lords of the Fergus family. He is one of the few people in the Fergus Viscount territory who has the strength of a high-ranking blood warrior.
As a cooperation that can bring tens of thousands of profits to the Fergus family every year, the Fergus family naturally values it extremely, so they sent Lord Corgi to escort it specially.
Gray waved his hand to interrupt the other person's words and asked.
"Did you encounter any robbers during your previous transportation?"
"No, not even once."
Although he didn't understand what Gray meant, the middle-aged manager quickly answered.
"Not once?"
Gray frowned slightly.
"Is it just a coincidence, or is it directed at me?"
This time, it was the first time he left the Viscount Fergus without the company of Viscount Fergus.
Knowing this situation, it is not impossible for some viscount families to think that it is an opportunity to assassinate him.
"Master Gray, you, you said these people might be... coming for you?"
Hearing Gray's words, the middle-aged manager was shocked and did not dare to say it confidently.
"Master Gray, could you... make a mistake?"
As the manager of a caravan in charge of the Fergus family, he also knew that his young master had been assassinated many times, but he never expected that he would encounter him when he was traveling with him.
"Whether it's a mistake or not, you'll know soon."
Gray looked at the robbers who were quickly approaching and said coldly.
With the strength of Lord Corgi, a high-ranking blood warrior, ordinary robbers can easily take care of them. If this is the case, it is naturally just a coincidence.
And if there is someone on the other side who can compete with Lord Corgi, and there is more than one, then it is worth pondering.
Looking at the approaching robbers, Lord Corgi scolded them coldly.
"This is the Fergus family's caravan, leave immediately!"
But after hearing his scolding, the group of people did not retreat and still quickly surrounded the caravan.
"kill!"
Lord Corgi's face turned cold. While giving orders to the caravan guards, he lightly touched the ground with his feet, and the people had already sprung out.
He came to the front and approached a man holding an axe, and slashed with his sword.
puff!
Before the man could even react, and before he could even raise his weapon, he was already slashed by Lord Corgi.
In addition, he didn't even have any armor or any other armor on his body. He didn't even grunt, and he was chopped into two pieces. The bright red blood spattered on the ground like a small fountain.
Peng!
Then Lord Corgi took a step to the right, came to another robber, and chopped him down with his sword.
puff!
This robber was better than the previous robber. He reacted and subconsciously raised his weapon, but as soon as he raised the weapon halfway, his head was chopped off by Lord Corgi with a knife.
Uh-huh!
Suddenly, Lord Corgi felt a strong wind coming towards him quickly from the side. His expression changed and he blocked it with his sword.
clang!
There was a harsh collision, and Lord Corgi stepped back again and again, his expression slightly changing.
"Superior Blood Warrior!"
At this moment, there was another strong wind sound coming from the other side of him. He reflexively moved sideways to avoid it, but in the end he was unable to avoid it in time.
Stab!
A shallow blood hole appeared on the side of his waist, and a faint trace of blood oozed out.
If it weren't for the protection of the battle uniform, it would no longer be as simple as a shallow wound.
"Two high-ranking blood warriors?!"
Lord Corgi's expression turned serious, and he looked warily at the man holding a battle ax and the man holding a sword who had just attacked him.
"Who are you?"
The possibility of two high-level blood warriors appearing among a group of robbers is not impossible, but it is extremely low.
The two men did not answer. One of them rushed towards Lord Corgi, while the other rushed towards the caravan.
"The two high-ranking blood warriors are really... really coming for Master Gray?!"
The middle-aged steward suddenly felt that his hands and feet were cold.
No matter how powerful Lord Corgi is, he is only a high-level blood warrior after all. Facing two beings of the same level, it is not an ordinary difficulty to win.
"Quick, quick, Master Gray, run away, that man is coming for you..."
He screamed, but found no one responded. He looked sideways, only to find that Gray was already gone.
"snort-"
Holding a battle ax whose head and handle were both made of metal, the man's eyes were cold and he rushed toward the caravan.
He was tall, holding a battle ax as big as a man's head, and when he ran, his footsteps made a heavy sound on the ground.
The expressions of the three Fergus family guards standing in front of him changed, but they still gritted their teeth and rushed towards the man.
clang-
Facing the weapons struck by two of the guards, he just swung the huge battle ax in his hand, and the huge battle ax hit the weapons of the two men like a heavy hammer.
The weapons of the two fell back and hit the two of them. The two of them flew out. After landing, they immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. Although they were not dead, they seemed to have been seriously injured.
Then his huge battle ax suddenly slashed downwards, apparently intending to split the third Fergus family guard in half from top to bottom.
"ah-"
The huge gap in strength meant that the Fergus family guard had no time to withdraw his weapon. He could only watch helplessly as the huge ax, bigger than his own head, quickly chopped down on him.
Uh-huh!
At this moment, a sword with a blue-white blade appeared, blocking the axe.
clang!
After a harsh metallic noise, a burly figure retreated sharply, but the master holding the blue-white sword did not retreat at all.
