king of the castle

Chapter 311

Just out of town, there was still a clear path through the woods. 【】Although this road cannot be driven by cars, it is not too difficult to walk.With the skills of Roger and Bonnie, walking on this road is naturally effortless.In fact, both of them were in the mood for an outing, and they followed Hardy while admiring the surrounding scenery.

"This is really similar to the Green Sea Forest." Bonnie said to Roger as she walked, "But the Green Sea Forest is not so humid, and the weather is always sunny there."

Hearing what the female knight said, Roger knew that she was missing her hometown, and she couldn't help but said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me. If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have come to this strange place."

"Don't say that." Bonnie smiled and said, "As long as you are here, I am willing to go anywhere."

Speaking of this, the two looked at each other and smiled, both felt from the bottom of their hearts that no matter how difficult the future is, as long as the other party is by their side, any difficulty can be overcome.

Of course, Hardy couldn't understand what Roger and Bonnie were talking about. He thought they were discussing the road conditions, and said loudly in front of him: "You two, we are going to go through the jungle soon, and the road ahead will be difficult. !"

Of course, Roger and Bonnie didn't care about whether the road was good or not. With their strength, it would not be difficult to open another road through the woods.

As Hardy said, as the few people gradually went deeper into the woods, the road became more and more difficult to walk.As a guide, Hardy took the lead, opening the way with a bush machete.Although there is indeed a small path under everyone's feet, it is almost completely blocked by dense plants. If they don't use machetes to open the way, the speed of progress will definitely be greatly reduced.

"Follow this path for twelve miles, then cross a river, and you will arrive at the Temple of La Loge." Hardy panted and said to Roger behind him as he drove the road: "This road is difficult. I don’t even want to take guests this way, if it weren’t for you…”

"The remuneration is an extra five hundred dollars." Roger knew what Hardy meant by saying this, and he cut off before he finished speaking: "I just want to get to the Temple of Lalog as soon as possible, and money is definitely not a problem!"

Roger's words made Hardy look happy, and he became more motivated, and the speed of opening the road was faster than before.Looking at the back of Hardy's hard work, not only did Roger not have any satisfied expression on his face, but a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

Although the guide had behaved so far, Roger always felt a little uneasy whenever he visited him.With the rapid increase in strength, Roger's sense of danger has become more acute.When he was still in the city, he didn't sense any danger from Hardy, but since entering the jungle, this feeling has gradually become stronger.

Roger wasn't terribly worried about Hardy, though.He was looking for a guide in order to get to his destination as quickly as possible, and if the guide turned into trouble, Roger didn't mind getting rid of him.Roger would not have the slightest psychological barrier to kill a bunch of strangers who were hostile to him in this virgin forest in a foreign country.

It was not easy to advance twelve miles in the jungle. By the time Roger heard the sound of gurgling water coming from ahead, it was already evening, and even the sky gradually began to darken.

Hardy, who was walking in the front, was already out of breath. After all, he was just an ordinary person. After walking so much in the jungle, he was almost exhausted.Had it not been for the belief in making big money to support Hardy, he would have been unable to walk as early as halfway.

Unlike Hardy, who was as tired as a dog, Roger and Bonnie still looked calm and composed, let alone showing fatigue, not even a drop of sweat on their foreheads.The two still followed Hardy unhurriedly as they had just started their journey, with a calm demeanor as if they were walking in their own yard.

These two guys... are really weird.Seeing Roger and Bonnie's performance in his eyes, Hardy was also a little uneasy, and felt that it seemed unwise to attack such two people.But when he remembered the weapon in his accomplice's hand, he immediately relaxed, and walked towards the river ahead with the last bit of strength.

"It won't be long before we cross the river to reach the Temple of Lalog." Hardy said to the two behind him as he walked, "Let's hurry up and rest when we arrive at the temple."

As soon as Roger heard what Hardy said, he knew he was talking nonsense.Night comes very quickly in the tropics, and it is quite light now, but it will not be long before it is completely dark.This wild jungle is not like a big city. When it gets dark, the surroundings are completely dark and there is no light at all.At that time, it would be too late to find a place to camp, and Hardy said that he had no intention of doing that at all.

As a knight, Bonnie also has a wealth of experience in survival in the wild, so she immediately noticed something wrong with Hardy.She exchanged glances with Roger calmly, reminding each other to be prepared for danger.

Hardy didn't know that his behavior had aroused the other party's vigilance, and he kept leading the two towards the river.As the sound of the water flow became louder and louder, the dense jungle in front of them quickly became thinner, and finally the surrounding environment suddenly became clear, and a large river with a not-so-smooth flow appeared in front of them.

"This is the river." Hardy stood on the beach by the river, looked around and said absent-mindedly: "There should be a boat near here, and we will be able to cross the river soon..."

As if to prove Hardy's words, a loud motor sound rang out not far away.A flat-bottomed boat came slowly from the bend of the river, and in the boat stood two men with their clothes uncovered.As if it had been agreed in advance, the flat-bottomed boat slowly approached Roger, and Hardy lost no time in calling out to the two people on board.

The two sides communicated in local dialect for a while, and the flat-bottomed boat slowly approached the river bank.Although Hardy had an impatient expression on his face, he still didn't forget to turn his head and say to Roger: "These two are fishermen nearby, I ask them to help send us across the river, but you have to give them a tip of fifty dollars. "

The fisherman's boat...the boat doesn't even have a fishing rod, are you kidding me?Roger didn't believe Hardy's nonsense at all, but on the surface he responded nonchalantly: "Okay, no problem!"

While the two were talking, the punt had already approached the river bank.Perhaps thinking that he was close enough to Roger, a man on the boat suddenly fished out a K47 from the bottom of the boat and pointed it at Roger.

At the same moment, Hardy had retreated to the bank of the river.Maybe he felt that he had controlled the situation. This guy changed his warm and honest attitude before, and sneered at Roger sneeringly: "I advise you to cooperate obediently, otherwise...we don't mind killing both of you!"

Although Roger had already noticed that something was wrong with Hardy, he didn't expect his accomplice to have such a big killer as k47.This powerful weapon is the standard equipment of terrorists and gangsters. It turns out that Hardy and his accomplices are not just ordinary robbers, they should be a group of professional robbers.

Thinking of this, Roger couldn't help laughing, sighing secretly that his luck was really bad.It was a bit of a coincidence that the randomly chosen guide turned out to be a professional robber.

What Roger didn't know was that it was precisely because he was very generous in his shots from the beginning that Hardy took these two "archaeologists" as targets.Spending lavishly like a rich person, only a man and a woman, and going to the most remote Lalog Temple, the combination of these three points is enough to make any robber heartbroken.

"I advise you not to move around, we are just asking for money." Facing Roger with a wry smile, Hardy said triumphantly: "Now your lives are in our hands, don't force us to kill people!"

Ever since the two men on board knew what Bonnie looked like, their eyes had never left her.Hearing that Hardy was still talking to Roger, one of them shouted impatiently: "What are you talking about with them, tie them up first and ask them to contact them to pay the ransom!"

"That's right, what are you talking about with them!" The guy with the k47 said to Bonnie lustfully, "I like that girl, let me enjoy it first..."

This guy's words stopped here, a sharp arrow flew from nowhere, and accurately penetrated his throat.The man's eyes widened in disbelief, the gun in his hand fell to the ground slumped, and then he turned half a circle and fell down, falling into the river with a "plop".

"What's going on?!" The man who drove the boat didn't see his accomplice's arrow, only that he threw down his weapon and fell into the river.The guy went forward to pick up the gun while yelling loudly, but just as he took a step, he was shot into a hedgehog by the oncoming arrows, and followed the footsteps of his companions.

Hardy, who was on the shore, knew exactly what had happened to his two companions. He walked back in fear, and was horrified to find a whole row of strangely dressed men standing behind him.These people wore the armor of ancient soldiers, and their weapons were either longbows or crossbow arrows, and they were staring at themselves.

At this moment Hardy was really scared out of his wits, he couldn't figure out when so many people appeared.Have they been following behind?Why didn't I find anything wrong along the way?

But at this time, Hardy didn't have time to think about so many issues. Seeing that the other party killed his two accomplices without hesitation, he knew very well that if he didn't work hard, he would end up in the same end.Speaking of which, Hardy is also a veteran robber, and he made the most likely decision to survive in an instant: kidnap the woman who seems to have no resistance, and use her as a hostage to threaten the other party to let him leave.

Hardy, on the brink of life and death, bursts out to his full potential, pounces on his prey with the agility of a jaguar.The machete he used to open the way became a terrible weapon at this time, turning into a cold light and going straight to Bonnie's shoulder.

Of course, Hardy didn't want to kill Bonnie, he just wanted to frighten her.However, at the same time as he rushed towards Bonnie, he found a sneering smile on this beautiful woman's face.

"What's going on?" As soon as this thought flashed through Hardy's mind, he suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and then he didn't know anything, and fell into the marginal darkness.
