Chapter 44 Ambush
After receiving a signal from Anthony to indicate safety, Owen led the team and rushed over cautiously.

Seeing the thieves and bandits scattered all over the place, everyone was stunned.

It took only a few minutes before and after, and the bearded coachman took out half of the steamed bun and ate half of it. He had already sent a signal to say that everything was settled.

Mr. Anthony, who is the most popular in Edinburgh, is really not ordinary.

The elite soldiers of the Hilton family looked at the young man with a trace of respect and awe.

The world of the strong has always been so simple. If you want to gain the affirmation of others, you must have the corresponding strength.

It's just that Mr. Anthony has settled everything by himself, so why do we need his subordinates?

These strong men in the eyes of ordinary people were puzzled and slightly disappointed.

……

Gray Wolf Village is named after its owner, Gray Wolf.

Gray Wolf is the nickname of Mitchell, the owner of the Gray Wolf Village. He is as vicious as a wolf, and with gray hair, people on the road gave him this nickname.

A few years ago, Mitchell, who had just entered the silver realm, had a confrontation with Andres, who broke in with a caravan.That time, Mitchell lost without any surprise and was seriously injured because of it.

Although because of his summons, the nearby bandits have raised their vigilance and changed the head-on fighting style.In the end, all the goods of Andres' entire caravan were robbed, and he was injured in many places, so he could only escape with a few masters.This can be regarded as indirect revenge for World War I.

However, for the Hilton family, Mitchell hated it.

If he was allowed to run out of this remote mountain wilderness and go to Edinburgh to seek revenge, he would never dare.Mitchell knew that he was not Andres' opponent at the time, and he might not be able to beat the old man now.Besides, the Grand Duke of Edinburgh, Mattesias, was a soldier. Under the rule of iron fist, all the gangs in Edinburgh who had a little climate in Edinburgh were wiped out. What kind of onion is Mitchell, who dares to run wild in the city?
Besides, he was an imposing silver-level professional strongman, who was reduced to become the king of the mountain in this unshitty mountainous area. It was because he offended a big man that he had to run away to avoid disaster.No need, he really didn't want to take the risk of going to those bustling cities.

Just when he thought he would have no chance to return Andres and the shame and pain that the Hilton family gave him back, the police in Edinburgh sent a warning.

Hilton, here we go again!
Good to come!
I was worried that I couldn't find you bad luck, but you came to my door automatically.This time, on my territory, I must give you a gift you will never forget.

So, Mitchell sent out all the young men in the village, and set up an ambush and a trap at a dangerous location in front of the village.

He is very clear that if the opponent dares to come, he will definitely bring a strong person.However, those slow-moving carriages, as well as the goods on the carriages, are the opponent's Achilles' heel.As long as the carriage is nailed there, those strong men can only defend passively, unable to exert half of their strength.

Last time, Andres was defeated like this.If I also adopt this strategy at that time, the trend of winning and losing may be reversed.

But it doesn't matter, I missed the last time, isn't this opportunity presented again.

Mitchell clenched his fists and clenched his teeth, with a ferocious smile on his face.

Just as Mitchell was still thinking about whether there were loopholes in the response, suddenly there was a loud bang in the sky outside, and a group of gorgeous sparks exploded, and the light of the fireworks covered a small piece of sky nearby.

"Alarm? It's the direction of the trap ahead." Mitchell wondered, "Could it be that the Hilton family arrived early?"

"Come on, come with me and have a look." Mitchell yelled, and rushed to the place where the alarm was issued with his confidants.

You will never do it head-on, but at least you have to go to the front to see what's going on before you make a decision.

On the other side, at a hidden place by the side of the mountain road, Owen asked Anthony suspiciously: "Anthony, since we have already sneaked in, why don't we just rush up and kill them all while they are unprepared?"

Anthony quietly looked at the "Grey Wolf Village" where people's heads were surging like a boiling hornet's nest, and said without looking back: "It is already the limit to be able to enter here. It is almost impossible to sneak into the village. If you don't enter the village , can you find where Gray Wolf is? If you let him escape, this mission will be more than half a failure."

Owen was silent.

Everyone understood that the reason why these bandits were difficult to deal with was not because of their strength.Even if they had twice as many professionals and twice as many silver-ranked fighters, they would still be weak against the coalition forces formed by the nobles of Edinburgh.

But in this mountainous area with complex terrain, these bandits scurry around like mice.The opponents are strong, and they will run away immediately; but as soon as you show a hole, they will rush like sharks smelling blood and tear you to pieces.

This is the main reason why business is difficult to open up.

Otherwise, it would not be a trivial matter to escort a caravan through this path as long as enough strong men were gathered together.But with such an expensive escort force, is there still a profit to be made from this trip?
Before taking over the task, Anthony thought about these things clearly.Driving away the gray wolf was definitely not the result he wanted.

After 1 minute, the humble gate of Huilang Village opened.Surrounded by a group of capable men—at least stronger than the group that was knocked down by Anthony in pieces—the gray-haired, tall and thin gray wolf rushed out and rushed towards the "construction site" ahead.

As soon as I walked to the corner of a col, there was a sudden sound of "swish" breaking through the sky on the hillside above my head.

"Ah~" The powerful arrows shot from top to bottom, and the gangsters around Gray Wolf fell down in an instant.

Swinging the sword aside a strong arrow, he was both shocked and angry.Those little bastards, knowing that Hilton's people were coming, were so lax, and let the enemy touch the base camp.

At the same time, he secretly thought of retreating.This time the opponent's approach was too fierce, it seemed that they didn't intend to pass the business at all, but came here specifically to wipe out the bandit gangs such as themselves.

After the first round of salvo, Gray Wolf Mitchell had time to look up.

On the opposite side stood on a rock not far away, about four to fifty people.All of them are tall and strong, capable of bending bows and setting arrows, obviously they are all good players.The leader was a young man wearing a magic robe and holding a staff.

Mitchell yelled: "They are not as many as us, everyone rush up and kill them!"

After the baptism by the rain of arrows, there were still about sixty bandit members.Seeing that the distance between the two sides is not far, the rock is only 3 meters high.As long as they rushed through this distance, long-range attack units like archers would never be their opponents.

Taking advantage of the gap between the arrows on the opposite side, the bandits all screamed and rushed forward in a chaotic manner.

Mitchell, who smelled the danger early, yelled, but the figure was slowly retreating.

The young man waved his staff forward, and a cloud of darkness fell on the bandit.Those bandits only felt as if a stone was pressed on their shoulders, and part of their strength seemed to be taken out of thin air.

"Crowd curse!?" The corners of Mitchell's eyes twitched slightly.

The boy's staff swung out again, and a milky white soft light shrouded the archer behind him.

"Group blessing!?" Mitchell no longer hesitated, turned and left.
