For them, I believe in superior firepower

Chapter 24
Garen fell down, and the courage of the thieves around him was finally completely shattered.

Garen was their leader. He had led them to be robbers near Cedar Town three years ago, and they had almost never failed.

Among the thieves, he is a well-known existence, and he is also physically strong and resistant to fighting. The other thieves leaders can hardly beat him without sleeping!
Cutting with knives and swords, stabbing with spears, or even shooting with bows and arrows can only leave a little injury to Gallon.

But he... was shot dead by such a guy?

So what are they still doing here?
Waiting to die?
"The boss is dead, run!"

"Run!"

The thieves shouted and were about to flee in other directions.

"Whoever takes another step, I don't mind rewarding him with a bullet." Xia En's flat voice sounded behind these people.

Like a foretaste of death.

In an instant, the whole world seemed to be paused.

All the bandits next to Xia En stopped, and even some who had just stepped out of their legs could only maintain a difficult movement, staggering there.

There are only snowflakes left, still falling down one after another, so beautiful.

But little by little accumulated on the thieves, like the last straw that overwhelmed people.

"I don't want any captives, I don't want anything, I don't want anything, run!" Berryman's voice rang out in the cedar forest, "He can't see clearly, he can't hit us!"

"Hey...how come no one listens to me when I talk?" Xia En sighed, and casually fired a shot into the cedar forest.

Berryman, who was still yelling just now, let out a strange "uh", as if he had been strangled by the neck, a dead chicken, and there was no more sound.

"I repeat, if anyone dares to run now, I don't mind sending him to meet your leader, do you understand?" Xia En raised his voice to the cedar forest and the thieves in front of him. road.

There was a moment of silence in the cedar forest.

After a while, about four or five thieves walked out of the dense forest with their hands raised high and their bodies trembling.

"Okay, listen to me, meet on both sides, stand in a row, and stay still." While keeping his guns on these people, Sean moved slowly, and came to the side of the pit that Meric fell into.

"How is it, Meric?" He didn't turn his head, but just asked.

"It's okay, but I just had to work hard to protect the horse." Meric replied, holding Xia En's outstretched hand, and finally climbed into the trap.

"Bang!" Another shot rang out.

"What are you doing? I said, line up obediently and don't move around." Xia En asked in surprise, "You...do you think I'm joking?"

The robbers not far away stood in place, their bodies shaking like chaff, and they didn't even dare to turn their heads to look at their companions lying on the ground.

"Everything is settled, let's clean up the battlefield." Turning to look at Meric next to him, Xia En smiled.

"Okay." Meric took a deep look at Xia En, who had killed eight thieves, and nodded vigorously.

……

"Xia En, your trophy. Also, this should be their prisoner, who was knocked unconscious." A moment later, Merici walked out of the cedar forest with two muskets on his shoulders, but he paused for a while. ,"What are you doing?"

"Merich, look at this...what is it?" Sean squatted in front of the thief leader's body, pointing to the other's chest.

Meric walked up to him, and saw that Garen's clothes had been torn open, and there was a fragment-like thing inlaid on his chest.

"I just searched and found it." Xia En added.

Meric looked at the fragments, pondered for a moment before opening his mouth again, "It feels... like map fragments? Lines and patterns, they all seem to be only found on maps."

"Really." Xia En looked at it for a moment, and finally nodded.

Lines look like contour lines, and patterns look like unique markers for places.

Is it really a map?

But the fragment of the map embedded in the chest... is so mysterious, it must not be a member of some secret organization, right?
Xia En thought so, and casually told Meric about his conjecture.

"I don't know...but when we get to Cedar Town, maybe we can get some news." Meric shook his head.

"That's right." Sean replied, put the steam rifle into the storage bag, and hung the musket on his shoulder.

"Xia En, this musket is as powerful as yours?" Li Wei who crawled out of the pit happened to see his movements, and couldn't hide his surprise.

"That's why you have to hang this gun." Xia En glanced at Li Wei angrily, "With such an conspicuous thing, you are waiting to enter Cedar Town and cause trouble?"

Li Wei suddenly woke up.

As for Meric, he squatted down, raised the knife in his hand, and cut off Garen's head. Then he gathered a lot of snow from the surrounding area, wrapped the boss's head, and stuffed it into the storage together. bag.

"If Cedar Town is still offering rewards for bandits, we can exchange this thing for the trust and help of the townspeople." He explained plainly.

"Well, I have to bring the captives..." Xia En returned to the side of the snow pit, glanced at Li Wei's white horse, sighed and shook his head, "Li Wei's white horse is no longer good, we are two riders now, we have to slow down .”

"Merich, you take the prisoners with you, and Li Wei and I will ride together...everything is about safety."

"Okay." Meric responded immediately.

The three immediately set off and headed towards Cedar Town.

……

When the scene in the town was in sight, the sky was completely dark.

However, Cedar Town, which is rich in wood resources, obviously has no shortage of lighting, especially at the entrance of the town, where more than a dozen torches are lit, and the flames are blazing.

"Stop coming, get off your horse and accept the inspection! Otherwise, you will be shot!" As soon as they approached the town, the three of Xia En, who were carrying a bunch of prisoners of war, were surrounded by guards.

It's normal.

"Ask your captain of the guard to hand over... These are the thieves around Cedar Town, and a prisoner who came out of their hands." Meric moved simply, and took out Garen's head from the storage bag , "There is also this head, please check it with your guard captain."

Surrounded by several soldiers all the time, the captain of the guard with a cold expression obviously frowned. As he stepped forward, he signaled to the guard, "Check those people!"

"Yes, Captain!" The guards led away, and the captain went straight to Meric and took Garen's head.

"Captain, these guys seem to be from Garen!" After a while, the guards who were inspecting the prisoners shouted loudly.

"Guaron's people? How is that possible?!" The captain of the guard frowned, "That guy is more cunning than a mouse, and his subordinates are also gangsters... Goo!"

He looked at the head that had been slapped away by the ice and snow in front of him, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and couldn't take his eyes off it.

There was no other reason, because the one in front of him was Garen's head.
