Zhao Xu thought about it and moved honestly behind Maple Leaf. With Maple Leaf holding his shield in front, he could more or less gain more concealment.
Before he learned the magic of defense against arrows, he was still afraid of stray arrows on the battlefield.
"Tie Shi, what do you mean?" Roja had already noticed the person in charge of the troops ambushing here.
Tieshi wore a suit of heavy armor that was much more luxurious than them, and rode a fine war horse, looking down at them from a distance.
Zhao Xu secretly thought that they knew each other. No wonder the ambush was so unskilled. Even the rogues didn't plan to ambush them. It was equivalent to just planting a flag to tell them.
"Luo Ya, we have fought together, please put your things on the ground and walk away. I will treat you as if you have run away." The soldier named Tie Shi shouted down.
Although Zhao Xu felt that the warriors were noobs, it was true that only warriors who had experienced an iron-blooded career could serve as chief officers of the combat team, and only they could convince the public.
"Tie Shi, do you think it's possible? How about this, how about I give you some supplies and use them as tolls?" Luo Ya looked at the circle of hundreds of people slowly emerging around him, and already understood that this matter might be difficult to solve.
"Roya, if I don't want to go around in circles with you, think about why we came to this barren canyon to intercept you?"
Tie Shi said loudly, "Just in the morning, the Merchant Alliance has issued an order. The position of the ninth elder and the positions of Kasuo and Butan as city lords will be distributed according to the merits of the siege! Give up."
Hearing these words, the entire caravan knew that things were in trouble.
The two cities of Kasuo and Butan are located at the foot of the Tianduan Mountains. They were originally the key routes to Mystra, but the two cities have always been unable to occupy important positions in the entire Tianbei Merchant Alliance.
The distribution of some resources is also not tilted, which is also the trigger for the two cities to definitely separate.
I just didn't expect that the Tianbei Business Alliance would give up greater interests so quickly before it was even at a disadvantage.
If the Tianbei Merchant Alliance had been willing to give up an elder's position to the two cities from the beginning, I'm afraid the trouble would not have reached this level.
No wonder the caravan that chose such a deviated path was still blocked by someone who wanted to do so.
Feelings Now the entire Tianbei Merchant Alliance and the caravans that smuggle supplies to the two cities of Kasobutan have become the desserts for the big guys in the Merchant Alliance who want to rise to power.
The smuggling caravan of Luo Ya had not been managed within the merchant alliance by the leader of Broken Star in advance. Zhao Xu would not believe it even if he beat him to death.
It's just that many times, the interests of the business alliance are not completely consistent with the interests of some middle and high-level people in the business alliance. However, the Merchant Alliance's last-ditch move has overturned all the chessboards.
No matter how well Isi can manage, can she be better than letting the person in charge of the force take over
Not to mention that this time, three positions were given up, and there was no fear that two peaches would kill three people, which would be a hindrance.
Seeing that Luo Ya and Tie Shi were still bickering, Zhao Xu dismounted directly. He did not expect that he would have to get off the horse before he had been riding for a long time.
"Go back and kill the iron stone first." Zhao Xu warned several people.
Maple Leaf looked at the iron and stone armor and shook his head, "We can't penetrate this kind of iron can."
The defense power of the full-body armor is as high as level 8, and Zhao Xu's own mage armor spell is only level 4.
This kind of heavily armored knight wearing full body armor and riding a horse has always been a terrifying weapon in the cold weapon era. Without the intervention of special formations or powerful warriors or even mages, it is basically difficult for ordinary people to deal with it.
"Don't worry, I'm a spell caster and I can solve it." Zhao Xu arranged.
Arthur, who values personal bravery, would find it difficult to assume the position of commander even if he was superior to others and had low combat prowess.
When a battle occurs, these leaders are also the ones who receive the most attention. As long as they can be killed successfully, the psychological pressure on such a team of hundreds of people will be great.
Including them, once Roja dies and no one steps forward in time, the entire escort team of about fifty people will be defeated.
At this time, Roja had obviously broken up with Tieshi, and the other party roared on the spot and started to attack.
At the same time, lurking in the depths of the canyon, many warriors armed with simple weapons rushed up to kill them, with only a few holding crossbows for long-range shooting.
"Yuyou, protect yourself." Maple Leaf thrust a round shield into Yunyu's hand, and he himself held a tower shield in front of them.
At this time, the poet also hurriedly sang a war song to them, while the rogue Rainbow was wandering around with a dagger, guarding against anyone coming to attack.
At this moment, Youyou, as a kind-hearted priest, also raised his crossbow and started shooting at the enemies in the distance.
In the distance, the warrior Roja and several of his close followers charged towards Tie Shi's group.
It's just that despite the charge blessing, there is no good way for a few people to resist the iron stone armor and the shield.
Zhao Xu and others were in a weak position, and in the blink of an eye, four or five warriors wearing leather armor had rushed into the defensive circle, charging towards them with machetes in their hands.
The warrior Maple Leaf shouted and raised his shield to try to block the opponent.
Yoyo, who had shot monsters but not living people, gritted her teeth and pulled the trigger and shot at a few people.
It's just that she didn't have the blessing of divine magic, and her agility was not high enough. The arrow directly grazed the shoulders of those warriors, which made them focus on long-range attackers like Youyou, and directly changed their direction and rushed towards her.
Upon seeing this, the warrior Maple Leaf quickly abandoned his shield and drew his sword in an attempt to chase after the few people.
Zhao Xu already held a handful of colored powder in his hand. He shouted at Maple Leaf: "Get out of the way."
Then he raised the sand in his hand and chanted a spell to the charging men: "Seven Colorful Jet."
A stream of colorful light was seen shooting out, and a fan with a radius of five meters covered the few people rushing at the front.
Like ants sprayed by pesticides, the fastest jumping warriors were swept by the rainbow light, and fell to the ground, curled up, and fell into coma.
When the remaining warrior who was running slowly saw the miserable condition of his companion, his expression changed drastically. His steps suddenly became chaotic and he sat on the ground. However, he did not forget to shout: "Run quickly, there is a mage here!"
Then the whole person rolled and crawled back to the large army behind him.
Zhao Xu's teammates didn't expect him to have such power, and they all looked at him in surprise.
"Don't be in a daze, get rid of these people quickly." Zhao Xu shouted quickly.
The wanderers with mobile support on the side had already rushed over. When he heard Zhao Xu's words, he asked nervously, "How to solve it?"
As he spoke, he felt the dagger in his hand tremble a little.
"Knock them out." Zhao Xu looked at the somewhat silly Rainbow and said, "Then quickly tie them up."
His spells can only control these level 1 warriors for a few rounds, just like how Ghost used a colorful jet to knock down the Maple Leaf group that night.
Hearing that it was not a one-and-done solution, Caihong was relieved and quickly matched up with the poet who came over, while Zhao Xu continued to look at the front of the battlefield.
Zhao Xu was not surprised that none of these first-level warriors passed the "will immunity" of the spell, and they were all knocked down by a "colorful jet".
Level 1 warriors themselves do not have enhanced will immunity like their mages, not to mention those who do not have the talent to be warriors. Their own physical attributes are very average, which is equivalent to the kind of 8 talent points at the beginning. Don't even think about improving your will with high perception. Immunity.
Youyou and the others only fought too many monsters and did not realize the difference between ordinary civilians or warriors and standard adventurers like them.
Level 1 mage is weak, but that is only for the other ten core professions.
