"Are you sure it's that person?"
One of the mercenaries said after leading the horse away from the tavern.
"You can't be wrong, he must be the person who the Mesfei family put a reward on last time."
The other mercenary nodded affirmatively.
After the destruction of the Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group, the Mesfe family once issued a reward for Gray, but anyone who provided information could receive a huge reward.
Although a long time has passed since the incident, there are still some mercenaries who have not forgotten this bounty. The amount of the bounty is really too large for them to forget.
"There is a store owned by the Mesfei family in Cold Wind City not far from here. Let's go and set off quickly."
Thinking of the huge reward, both of them felt hot in their hearts. Although the night was windy and snowy, they didn't feel cold at all at this time.
Holding a lantern in one hand and riding a horse in the other, they headed towards the Cold Wind City against the wind and snow blowing like a knife.
The next day, Master Gray and his servant set out.
Because the route was the same, Gray and the others would meet the four masters and servants from time to time.
There was not much enthusiasm between the two parties. When they met by chance, they just nodded slightly.
A few days later, it was approaching noon.
The wind and snow were still falling, and Gray was just about to stop and eat some dry food before continuing on the road.
suddenly.
hold head high-
The neighing of horses sounded, and three strong horses galloped towards them.
The limbs are slender and strong, and the body is taller than ordinary horses. Even on the snow, it can still walk as fast as flying.
The color of the fur is, one is black, one is brown, and one is yellow.
The colors vary, but without exception, the hair is extremely soft and smooth, as if it has been cared for.
These were three horses that were no worse than the redbloods that Gray had already given to Sarah.
Three horses were running towards us. The servant Dolly who drove the carriage didn't take it too seriously, but soon he noticed something unusual.
When the three horses were about to approach the carriage, they actually spread out and surrounded the carriage.
Creak —
The servant who was driving the carriage was startled, stopped the carriage quickly, and shouted in panic into the carriage.
"Master Gray, there is..."
Whoosh!
In fact, before the driver's servant could call out, Gray had already reacted, opened the door of the carriage, and appeared outside the carriage.
Appearing outside the carriage, the first thing Gray saw was a man sitting on a black horse.
This is a man who should be over 50 years old, with light brown hair and a lot of wrinkles on his face.
Seeing Gray's gaze, he also looked at Gray and snorted coldly.
"Gray Fergus, how dare you appear in Oka Territory!"
Back then, after the giant evil mercenary group was destroyed and two more fierce-blooded warriors were lost, he, as the head of the Mesfe family, personally took action and tracked them all the way, finally entering the Sidney Territory.
At that time, Gray already had some reputation in Sidney Territory, and he soon found out Gray's identity.
Knowing that Gray is a descendant of the Viscount family of Sidney Territory, if he continues to pursue him in Sidney Territory, he may attract the behemoth of the Sidney Family, and he will have to give up in the end.
However, it is obviously impossible for the Mesfei family to give up like this. After all, the Mesfei family has lost three fierce-blooded warriors in Gray's hands. This hatred is not ordinary.
If we can't take action in Sidney Territory, we can't take action outside Sidney Territory
After all, the other party is only a son of the Viscount family, and the Sidney family pays limited attention to him. If he is killed outside the Sidney territory, the Sidney family will definitely not stand up for him.
The Sidney family is not a nanny. There is no way that if a child of a small feudal noble died outside the territory, the small feudal noble would go out to avenge the small feudal noble as soon as he complained.
And this is likely to involve other nobles of the Marquis family. Even the Sidney family must consider whether it is worth it.
Therefore, the Mesfe family has been paying attention to Gray's movements, and the initial reward for Gray has not been cancelled. The purpose is to wait for this opportunity.
To this end, the Mesfe family's connections in the mercenary circle were used to pass the bounty to mercenaries in other territories.
Unexpectedly, the other party not only left the Sidney Territory this time, but also directly entered the Oka Territory. In his opinion, he was simply not ordinary bold.
Whoosh!
Gray didn't say anything, and dodged out of the carriage, as if he was running away in panic.
"Don't let him escape!"
The head of the Mesfe family snorted coldly and quickly jumped off his horse.
Boom, boom, boom!
Every time he stepped down, the force was heavy, the snow splashed, and snow pits appeared on the ground. He looked clumsy, but he was actually very fast, and he quickly intercepted Gray in front of him.
The other two people behind also jumped off their horses and fell behind Gray. They were in front of and behind the Mesfe family leader, blocking Gray in the middle.
"Humph, you still want to escape now, don't you think it's too late?"
Blocking Gray's path, the head of the Mesfe family looked at Gray with disdain.
"Escape, I didn't escape!"
Gray shook his head and chuckled.
He had never planned to escape from the beginning, and the reason why he made the gesture of escape was just to get away from the carriage.
It was freezing cold, and he didn't want the carriage to be affected during the battle and end up in a situation where he had to walk in the snow.
"Master Gray."
When the servant driving the carriage saw Gray being blocked by three men, he couldn't help but screamed anxiously.
"It's okay, please drive the carriage farther away, otherwise it will be affected by our battle."
"But."
"Don't worry, it's okay."
Gray shook his head slightly and signaled the other party to quickly drive the carriage away.
The servant driving the carriage looked hesitant, but in the end he obeyed Gray's order and drove the carriage away.
His name is Dolly, and he is a carriage servant specially selected from among the elite soldiers by Earl Fergus after he knew that Gray was going to the mercenary city.
Although he has not practiced blood magic, he has the strength of a low-level blood warrior through polishing his body.
There is no problem in dealing with ordinary troubles, but this kind of scene is obviously not something he can participate in.
Seeing the servant driving the carriage leaving, the three Mesfield family members did not stop them. Their goal was not the servant driving the carriage, but Gray.
In their eyes, the servant who drives the carriage is like a little ant that can be strangled at any time and is completely irrelevant.
A few hundred meters away from the confrontation between Gray and the Mesfe family, a carriage stopped there, and four people got out of it. They were the four masters and servants that Gray had often encountered in recent days.
"Second brother, are you sure he can handle it?"
Seeing the movement of the Mesfe family leader stepping out, Samantha looked at Elijah suspiciously.
"Well, I didn't expect him to be so capable of causing trouble."
Elijah said helplessly.
"Among the people I provoked, there was actually a Berserker!"
"Master, do you want me to rescue him?"
Will, the old man with the knife, asked.
Even when he saw that the opponent had a mad blood warrior and two ferocious blood warriors, the old man was still extremely confident.
"Need not."
Elijah shook his head and looked quietly at the tense atmosphere in the distance.
"Although the impression is not bad, if we are not relatives, there is no reason for us to help him!"
After confirming that the driver Dolly had retreated more than 100 meters away, Gray looked at the head of the Mesfe family.
"Speaking of the grievances between me and your Mesfe family, it's all your Mesfe family's fault."
"The Giant Crocodile Mercenary Group, relying on its strength, robbed the mercenaries who came out of the Blue Sea Forest, and actually grabbed my head, so I destroyed it."
"The other two fierce blood warriors didn't even say anything about killing me as soon as they appeared, so I killed them too. In the whole process, it was your Mesfe family who made the first move, and I was forced to fight back."
"Is this interesting?"
The head of the Mesfe family shook his head in disdain.
No matter what the reason was, it was a fact that the Mesfield family lost three vicious warriors because of Gray Fergus.
At this point, it doesn't matter what the reason is. The hatred has been forged and can only be eliminated at the cost of the other party's life.
"It's really boring."
Gray nodded lightly, confirming what the Mesfei family said. His current situation with the Mesfei family reminded him of the situation between the Sidney family and the Warren family.
It is not known why the two families had a grudge, but in the past few hundred years, both families have suffered many casualties because of each other. What kind of hatred is no longer important, what is important is the hatred and its inability to be resolved. .
Uh-huh!
At the same time, three members of the Mesfe family moved. At the same time, the three of them approached Gray from the front and back.
The fastest one was the head of the Mesfe family. He had already approached Gray in two steps, holding a battle ax and striking at Gray.
I saw cyan light wrapping around his axe, giving people an extremely sharp feeling.
As his ax struck, the surrounding wind and snow seemed to be suddenly split in half, and there was a moment of stasis.
Uh-huh!
A sword with flashing lightning appeared, and the blazing blue-white thunder and lightning kept making crackling sounds. The surrounding wind and snow disappeared before they even got close.
Boom!
The violent sound of weapons clashing sounded.
The wind howled.
The surrounding wind and snow were suddenly blown away, and a snow-free zone with a diameter of more than ten meters appeared.
The snow under their feet was splashing all around.
Evenly matched!
Neither of them could take advantage.
The pupils of the Mesfe family's eyes shrank slightly, and there was a hint of surprise on his face. This was a very surprising result. The other party was actually able to block his attack.
Swish, swish!
A long sword entwined with thunder and a long sword entwined with flames, with the power of thunder, quickly attacked Gray from behind.
The ones who took action were the two fierce blood warriors of the Mesfe family behind Gray.
Seeing Gray blocking the attack of the family leader, they were shocked, but the weapons in their hands struck Gray from behind without any hesitation.
