Chapter 211 Eagle Eye Technique

The cloth merchant said, "The priest has only been in Xihuang Town for a short time, so he doesn't know the situation here yet. Xihuang Town's agriculture is underdeveloped, and we don't grow cotton and flax. We used to collect herbs and hunt, and then exchange the herbs and prey for cloth in Sunshine City."

"Last year, werewolves from Gilneas suddenly came to West Wasteland and brought their woven linen." The cloth merchant said, "The linen woven by the werewolves is well-made and cheap, so I stopped buying from Sunshine City. Instead, I bought from the werewolves and sold it in Sunshine City."

The cloth merchant grinned: "I made a lot of money from this."

Glass thought it was weird in his heart, but he was not very interested in such production-related matters. He was more concerned with power struggles, missionary work, territory, and the eradication of pagans.

After listening to it, I didn't take it to heart, but changed the subject.

"Are there any bandits on the road from Sunshine City to Xihuang Town?"

The cloth merchant nodded. "Yes, there are goblins that come out to rob people occasionally, and ogres appear occasionally. However, they are all stupid and their ambush is not professional. I have hired hunters to accompany us. They can be spotted from a distance. We can just make a detour or whip the carriage to rush past them."

At this point, a hunter following his convoy waved to Glass and said with a smile: "Father, I am the hunter."

Glass turned his head and looked at the hunters. He knew that hunters were a profession. They all had a skill called "Eagle Vision", which could extend the field of vision to a very far distance.

The powerful [Eagle Eye Technique] can see 5000 yards away, and the beginner's [Eagle Eye Technique] can also see 2000 yards away. It is really powerful.

Moreover, their farsightedness is different from that of ordinary people.

An average person can see a few thousand yards away from a high place, but things in the distance are extremely small and cannot be seen clearly.

Hunters can use the "Eagle Eye Technique" to bring things thousands of yards away closer to their eyes, just like an eagle can see a white hair on the ear of a little rabbit on the ground from thousands of meters in the sky.

A very cool skill.

Glass nodded to the hunter and said, "How many bandits have you seen on this road?"

Hunter: "That's a lot more. I've seen goblins dozens of times, ogres five or six times, as well as lizardmen and kobolds... After all, this is the border of the kingdom, not Middle-earth. There are a lot of bandits and bullies here. If I hadn't kept my eyes open and been careful and alert, I would have lost my life long ago."

Glass: "Are there any human bandits?"

"Yes!" The hunter said, "Humans are the most troublesome. When they hide, it is very difficult for me to find them even with the Eagle Eye Technique. They are very dangerous."

Glass: "Is the scale of human bandits large?"

This time the hunter shook his head. "Not big. They are just small gangs of bandits. You know, the scale of a bandit gang is not big. A few dozen people is fine. If there are hundreds of people, they will definitely attract the siege of the nobles."

This makes sense.

Glass turned to look at the transport team with a look of disdain: "The bandits you encountered are a small group, right?"

Transport team: "Yes, only about ten people."

Glass looked back at the nearly two hundred knights behind him. Wouldn't it be easy to deal with 20 bandits?
Just as I was about to laugh, the hunter suddenly said, "There are hunters among the bandits, and they also know the Eagle Eye Technique. One time, I used the Eagle Eye Technique to confront a hunter among the bandits. We were more than 4000 yards apart, and we stared at each other for a long time. Then I gestured to him and told him that I was protected by Adrian, the lord of Xihuang Town, and he let us go."

After hearing this, Glass's expression darkened a little, and he turned to look at his 200 subordinates again: "If the enemy has the [Eagle Eye Technique], then if my 200 men go together, the bandits will find them from a distance of several thousand yards and run away early." The clergy all have short legs, and once the enemy escapes, they will most likely not be able to catch up.

This is a bit embarrassing.

"Maybe I have too many people with me, and we need to find another way." Glass thought seriously for a while and decided to use a trap. "Only twenty or so Temple Knights are enough. We don't need so many people to deal with a group of a dozen bandits. Those of the transport team, push the carts, and put two soldiers on each cart, covered with oilcloth."

When the Knights Temple heard this, they thought it was credible.

The priest’s clever plan brings peace to the world!

At that moment, a group of people took action again. They first prepared ten large carts, and then squeezed two Temple Knights on each cart, and then covered it with oilcloth. Now, from the outside, it looked like they were transporting hundreds of kilograms of goods.

Since the main force didn't go, Glass himself didn't go either, and stayed in Xihuang Town waiting for news. He estimated that with 20 temple knights and dozens of soldiers in the transport team, they would have no problem dealing with a dozen bandits by outnumbering them.

The convoy left Xihuang Town and slowly moved along the official road towards Sunshine City.

Not far ahead of them was the cloth merchant's small carriage, with a hunter on horseback following beside him.

With them in the front, the transport team felt more at ease.

This wave of fishing enforcement must be given full marks.

As they walked, the hunter in front suddenly became alert: "Be careful, there may be an ambush in the woods 4500 yards ahead. I feel there is someone there."

His news immediately reached the transport team behind him.

The captain in charge of this operation immediately laughed and said, "Very good. We are not afraid of them coming, but we are afraid of them not coming. Comrades in the transport team, now we can avenge you."

The people in the transport team were also very happy.

The group passed by the cloth merchant's carriage and whispered to the cloth merchant and the hunter: "Don't come over. Just stand at a distance and watch how our Holy See of Light wipes out the evil party and helps you get a better business environment."

The cloth merchant and the hunter were extremely grateful: "Thank you, the Holy See. We will listen carefully to the voice of the God of Light in the future."

The transport team marched towards the woods in a swaggering manner.

The cloth merchant and the hunter stepped back a few steps, huddled together, and laughed: "They're going to die, hahahaha."

The cloth merchant said: "Those charlatans of the Church of Light pretend to be good people, but they are actually very bad. What did the candy caravan of the Lord do to offend anyone? They were smashed to pieces by the people of the Church of Light."

The hunter also whispered, "That's right! The werewolves are our friends, and they taught me how to make a sled. I heard from the Lord that these lunatics from the Church of Light have been planning to attack Gilneas. They want to deal with the other weak subhuman races first, and then gather a large army to flatten Gilneas. The werewolves didn't provoke them, but they want to destroy them. They are such villains."

Cloth Merchant: "I hope they die as soon as possible and leave Xihuang Town."
