Chapter 114 The Night Carriage

Chris and the others all looked forward to Roger's lead, and since he was gone, the others could only follow no matter how unwilling they were. 【】The men followed behind as if they were escorting prisoners, until Roger was far away from the town, and their triumphant laughter could still be heard.

Since he decided not to cause trouble, Roger naturally wouldn't take it to heart.Whether it is the world of Turonzo or the earth, there are such arrogant guys everywhere, as long as they are not too excessive, there is no need to care about it.If you go to war every time you meet such a guy, you will have a lot of trouble.

Chris, on the other hand, was very aggrieved by this, muttering along the way that if Master Roger hadn't been kind, he must teach these guys a lesson.After all, he is a knight, and his status is much higher than that of ordinary people.Normally, from commoners to knights, they all have to salute respectfully. If a knight nods his head and salutes back, it will be regarded as a big face for the other party.When did Chris suffer such humiliation, it is normal to be a little emotional now.

Everyone walked along the forest path leading to the main road for a while, and found a suitable place to set up camp before the sky completely darkened.Everyone planned to spend the night in the woods, and wait until dawn before continuing their journey.

Although it was relatively safe in the hinterland of the kingdom, Phil still arranged for his men to take turns to watch the night.But everyone felt that tonight would be a peaceful night, and that the vigil would be nothing more than routine.However, to everyone's surprise, in the middle of the night, a group of mysterious guys appeared near the camp, breaking the tranquility of the night.

The party happened to be talking about Phil's vigil when they showed up near camp.With a calm personality, he didn't alarm the other party, but quickly woke up the others.

Anyone who is suddenly awakened from sleep can't be in a good temper, and Roger is certainly no exception.Of course, he would not blame Phil, who was loyal to his duty, for this, so he naturally spread the fire on the team of mysterious characters.

"Sneaking on the road in the middle of the night, you must not be a good person!" Roger ordered to the others in a low voice: "What the hell are these guys doing, if they are really not doing good things, teach them a lesson!"

As soon as Roger and the others came to the side of the main road, they saw a group of people driving two carriages slowly walking along the forest path.

Even when walking at night in the woods, none of the group carried a torch to light it, which made Roger sure that they must be doing nothing good.Both carriages were covered with tarpaulins, and there was no evidence of any cargo.However, the carriage was very difficult to drive, and the weight of the goods must be heavy.

Tonight happened to be the full moon night of the blue moon, and the light blue moonlight sprinkled on the earth, leaving patches of mottled shadows in the woods.As these people got closer and closer, Roger could not help but be surprised that he could see their faces with the help of moonlight.These guys are none other than the guards who drove them out of Twilight Town during the day.

These guys carefully guarded the carriage and moved forward, as if it was loaded with important cargo.At this moment, a carriage ran over a small pothole in the road, the body suddenly tilted, and the goods in it turned out from under the tarpaulin and fell heavily to the ground.

Roger's eyes were sharp, and the goods that fell out immediately were the iron cage that he had seen at the young woman's house during the day, and there was also a child in the iron cage.But even such a heavy impact did not wake up the child in the iron cage. The child's small body curled up and remained motionless, apparently being restrained by them in some way and losing consciousness.

This accident startled the men, one of them stopped the carriage immediately, and several others rushed over to lift the cage, and the whole team immediately fell into chaos.

"I told you to be careful!" This situation made the leading man very dissatisfied, and lowered his voice to reprimand the others: "If the goods are lost, who will pay for them? What a bunch of trash!"

"Goods!" Hearing these two words, Roger immediately thought that these guys might be trafficking children.He estimated that the two carriages could hold a dozen iron cages in total, and now the carriages are full, which means that these guys have trafficked the same number of children just this time.

Judging from the sneaky appearance of these guys, most of these children were obtained by them through improper means.Roger couldn't help clenching his fists at the thought of the immense grief that so many children and parents had to endure the loss of a loved one.

Chris and Phil also guessed what these people were doing.This behavior was extremely hateful to the two knights, so they all looked at Roger expectantly, hoping that he would give orders to stop these people's evil deeds.

Roger hated the act of abducting children. Since other people had the same idea, he would not hesitate at all, and immediately gave an order in a low voice: "Touch and grab those guys quietly, try not to disturb them, so that those children will not be hurt. !"

Chris and the others nodded to express their understanding, and then dispersed towards the carriage.Not to be outdone, Roger took out the sword from the secondary space, and approached each other quietly with the others.

The men were trying to get the heavy iron cage onto the carriage, but they didn't realize that anyone was approaching quietly.Several men worked together to load the iron cage onto the carriage, and when they breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to take a break, Roger and others had already arrived.

Chris rushed into the enemy's room first, and the sword spine hit one person's back heavily, knocking the person down immediately and unable to get up.Others followed suit, attacking each other violently.

Roger rushed to the carriage, and the sword in his hand pierced a man's ear like lightning.The man didn't have time to dodge at all, the spine of the sword had already slammed into his head.The guy suddenly slammed into the side of the carriage next to him, and passed out on the ground without even groaning.

This was Roger's first strike after reaching the advanced strength of the black iron. He didn't expect that just a random blow would be so powerful, so even he was stunned after defeating the opponent.However, Roger also has a wealth of combat experience now, so he immediately suppressed this surprise, and rushed to the next enemy with his sword.

These guys were all showing off in Twilight Town before, but in fact they just relied on their status as guards.The real strength is not much stronger than ordinary people, how could it be the opponent of the battle-tested Roger and others?Coupled with the sudden incident, many people were caught off guard and did not react at all, and were knocked to the ground by Roger and others.Roger explained that he wanted to catch alive before he started, so these men were only slightly injured, and their lives were not in danger.

But these people are not all so useless, the guy in the lead has some skills.After being attacked, he was the first to react, and immediately pulled down the tarpaulin on the carriage, pointed a rapier at a child in an iron cage and shouted loudly: "Stop it all, or I will kill this little thing!"
