Catching a fish means having money, and having money means eating, drinking, girlfriends, and gambling. Is there anything more exciting than these?
"Where is it? Take me there!" The bandit leader gave an order: "Grab your weapons, and you guys come with us!"
A group of mountain bandits rushed out together, following the scouts, and soon arrived at the top of the hill. At this time, the convoy had passed by, so they followed it for a distance in the direction of the Tariu Mountains. After a while, they saw the slowly moving convoy, and there was indeed a carriage with a sign with special meaning hanging on it.
"After waiting for so long, we can finally have some fun." The bandit leader held up a machete and said ferociously, "Robert did a good job. If we sell it for a good price this time, we must give him a share. If he didn't have him as an insider in Black Tower City, our income would probably be reduced by half."
Robert is a relatively successful businessman with a wide network of contacts and channels. Many people come to him to buy goods, so naturally he comes into contact with all kinds of people. So sometimes the fish will naturally fall into his fishing net, and they, a group of robbers in the wilderness, are the ones who collect the net.
"Boss, shall we go up now?" The minions next to him couldn't wait any longer.
"What's the hurry?" The bandit leader glanced at his subordinate coldly: "Do you know the identity of the people in this car? What if we stir up a hornet's nest? Robert is only responsible for providing us with targets. It is up to us to judge whether we can catch them. What about these drivers? Robert helps us find the target, and we kill his driver. Do you think it's appropriate?"
The subordinate shrank his head.
In principle, it was not appropriate, but they were already in this business, so what principles did they need? However, they didn't dare to say this.
"Boss, when do we start?"
"Let's follow them and see what's going on." The bandit leader took out a map and compared it with the convoy. "They should be taking a shortcut to Baona Town, right? They have to go through a small forest in the middle. They really don't know how to live or die. They are so brave. There must be professionals in the team."
The Black Hawk Bandits are not afraid of ordinary professionals.
No matter how powerful they were, they were once an elf slave-hunting team, and each of those elves was a warrior or wizard above level three. Without some means and strength, they would not have been able to make a living in this business.
So the slave-hunting team followed the caravan quietly and soon arrived near the woods.
Further ahead is the Tariwu Mountains.
If you go east through this woodland, you can see the city walls of the town of Bona. If you take the King's Road, you will have to go around it.
The drivers speculated that the three young ladies came from the town of Bona, and the person who was going to pick them up must be in the woods, otherwise it would be impossible for the three girls to push so much milk through the woods.
"Miss, we're here now. Do you need our help in unloading?"
"No need." Sophia took Irene and Shana out of the car: "Just leave it here, you guys go back."
The drivers were naturally happy about the convenience. They took the lasso off the carriage, then climbed on their horses, said hello politely, and rode back to report.
In the jungle not far away, a group of Black Hawk bandit gang members were hiding in the grass, each holding a branch. They looked at the stopped convoy and the driver who had left with a confused look on their faces.
"Why did you stop here!?"
"That's right, shouldn't they be sent to Bona Town..."
The bandit leader couldn't figure it out either. He thought he should be more cautious and test the situation. But when Sophia, Irene and Shana took off their veils, these cautious thoughts immediately disappeared from his mind.
The main reason is that these three girls are so beautiful. There are few who can compare with them in looks in the entire Black Tower City. Not to mention that they can be sold for a high price, even if they are kept by your side, wouldn’t it be pleasing to the eyes to look at them every day?
"Brothers, move on! Hurry!" The bandit leader growled, "Watch out for your knives. Don't scratch the faces of these beauties. Otherwise, you'll pay with your lives!"
Following the bandit leader's order.
A group of minions also filed out from their hiding places.
A large group of people rushed towards the convoy from all directions.
"Huh?" Irene had sharp ears and saw the bandits rushing towards her at a glance. She raised her staff almost reflexively and threw a fireball, but it was dodged by the bandits who were experienced in combat. The fireball hit the tree trunk and exploded with a roar.
The roar also woke up Shana and Sophia, who were slower to react.
"There are robbers!" Sophia turned pale.
I subconsciously shrank back and felt my legs go limp.
This group of robbers appeared out of nowhere like ghosts.
So they were completely unprepared.
"Three beauties, don't even think about escaping once you're caught by our Black Hawk Slave Catching Team!" The bandits surrounded the three women, and the bandit leader walked out of the crowd with a smug look on his face.
As he expected, there was indeed a professional among the three women, but unfortunately she was a rookie and not worth worrying about. The remaining two were harmless and their legs were shaking with fear, so they could be easily taken advantage of.
There was no one around to meet the three girls. I guess they haven't arrived yet or they missed each other.
The bandit leader just felt that his luck today was very good.
In the past, the young ladies who were kidnapped usually had guards around them, and they had to take great pains to kill their guards. But today, these three didn’t have any guards at all.
The three girls stepped back.
The criminals approached step by step with grim smiles on their faces.
"Thank God, thank God. I thought I had no money to make recently. I haven't had fish to eat for a long time. I didn't expect to get three high-quality fish right away."
The bandit leader sighed, "Don't worry. To thank you for bringing a good life to our Black Hawk Slave Catchers, we will try our best to sell you to big cities... I heard that the nobles have more tricks~"
The surrounding bandits laughed wildly upon hearing this.
They have already got these three girls in their sights.
"..." Shana bit her red lips lightly, silently looking at the bandits around her without saying a word, but carefully took out a whistle and held it to her lips.
Chapter 224: What if it's not human?
The bandit leader noticed the whistle at Shana's lips and his face changed. He knew that the girl wanted to call for help, but he quickly calmed down. By the time the reinforcements arrived, the three girls had already been kidnapped by them.
"Little sister, I'm warning you. Blowing a whistle in the wilderness may not attract humans. It could be a group of demons or monsters!" Seeing that Shana was young, he threatened her deliberately, "Follow us, at least you can stay alive. If you follow a good master, you can eat and drink well, and you may even thank us... But if you are discovered by the demons, you will suffer the consequences, don't I need to remind you? There are many cases in this border area, you have seen them all!"
If someone else were here, they might really be intimidated by the bandit leader, but not Shana. The jungle is not a dangerous place for her. On the contrary, it is safer than human society. This encounter with the slave-hunting team has further deepened her thinking.
She whistled as hard as she could.
"Beep——"
The melodious and sharp whistle echoed in the jungle and traveled far away.
The kidnappers' faces turned pale, and the leader shouted angrily, "What are you still standing there for? Go up and pin them down!"
"Come behind me!"
Irene took two steps forward, waved her staff, and chanted a spell silently.
Shana and Sophia quickly shrank behind Irene.
Now only Irene is able to fight, so they must delay time and wait for rescue.
call--
The scorching temperature surrounded the three people, and in an instant a wall of fire rose in front of them. The entire wall of fire was arc-shaped. Seeing this, the bandits immediately went around from behind to encircle them, but Irene continued to release the wall of fire to form a circle to surround them. In this way, the bandits could only circle around the wall of fire, and for a moment they didn't know how to deal with it.
"Can you cast a fire wall instantly?"
The bandit leader had never expected that the rookie magician in his eyes could perform such a trick, but what about the instant fire wall spell? He took out a scroll from his space ring and tore it open. A light blue magic circle formed in front of him, and then a violent stream of water rushed out of the magic circle in a whirl.
Water and fire melt together and turn into steam which disperses.
The three girls in the fire wall were soaked like drowned rats.
Fortunately, I was wearing thicker clothes.
"Tsk tsk, I thought I would never need this three-ring water burst scroll in my lifetime, but I didn't expect that I would use it on the blade today."
The bandit leader was proud of his own wisdom and bravery.
This scroll was bought at a low price. After all, it is also a three-ring magic. The power of the water burst is not satisfactory, and it is even jokingly called a bathing spell. However, there is a certain restraint effect between the magic elements. Even if it is just a "bathing spell", it can be extremely effective if used in the right place.
The wall of fire was put out and the kidnappers surrounded it with a grin.
Irene gritted her teeth and was about to use magic again, but just as she raised her staff, two fearless kidnappers rushed forward and snatched it away.
Although she can still cast magic without the staff, her speed will be slower.
And the main problem is that they now have no space to cast magic.
Any spell action can be easily interrupted by these approaching kidnappers.
"The goods Robert provided this time are really good. Two young ladies from wealthy families and a magician. Wow, this magician can cast spells silently and instantly, so his talent must be good. I estimate that he can sell it for tens of thousands of gold coins?" The bandit leader looked at Irene as if he had seen a cash cow, his eyes shining.
"You're right, she has a very good talent."
A deep and cold voice suddenly sounded behind the bandit leader:
"But have you ever thought that behind a talented wizard there might be a teacher who is quite accomplished in magic?"
"So what?" The bandit leader retorted subconsciously: "As long as we capture her and sell her to other cities, her teacher will never be able to find her. Even if he does, what's the use? The empire is ultimately ruled by noble lords, and mages are just pawns in their hands!"
"What if this wizard's teacher is not human?" the deep voice asked again.
“Not a human? What the hell are you letting loose…” The bandit leader was startled, then slashed behind him with his knife.
None of his men have the same voice as that gangster, so the person behind him is definitely an enemy.
The knife was so fast, accurate and ruthless, and caught the enemy off guard, that the bandit leader thought he could definitely kill the opponent.
However, there was a "clang" sound.
The sword blade seemed to have hit a lump of iron, and the bandit leader's wrist was painfully shaken by the recoil force.
"With this little strength, can't you slave-hunting team get enough food?"
Caesar held the bandit leader's machete in one hand and tightened his fingers.
The not-so-sophisticated machete made a crackling sound as it broke.
After devouring the three-headed demon, he clearly felt that his strength and defense were enhanced.
The hardness of his membrane is much higher than before, plus the bonus provided by the Boiling Blood Armor on his body, he can easily catch a blade with his bare hands and crush the weapon without hurting his palm at all. This is on the premise that he has not completely digested the boiling blood.
"Demon? You...you are a demon!"
At this time, the bandit leader had already seen the full appearance of the person behind him.
His tall body was almost as tall as the trees next to him, his scarlet armor could not cover his well-developed muscles, his pair of scarlet eyes stared calmly and coldly, the black axe in his hand was as big as a door panel, and the blade flashed with cold light.
The bandit leader swallowed hard and a whimper came from deep in his throat.
He can charge fearlessly into the face of tree elves, star-moon elves, and even the evil drow elves.
But when there was a demon standing in front of him, he just wanted to pee his pants.
The forest was not particularly cold at the moment, but he felt a chill in his body, a chill that froze his bladder.
He watched the demon in front of him loosen his grip, and the broken pieces of the machete fell to the ground.
The bandit leader trembled as he took out the dagger from his waist, but unfortunately the scabbard was empty. He then remembered that he had left in too much of a hurry and forgot to bring the poisoned throwing knife.
"Don't just stand there like idiots, hurry up!" the bandit leader called out to his subordinates around him.
The moment these bandits saw the demon, they were frightened and stunned until they heard their leader's shouts.
"There's only one of him, let's surround and kill him!" the bandit leader gave the order.
These desperate criminals finally mustered up the courage to rush forward.
The demon held the battle axe in his hand facing the group of humans who were charging at him, and the axe blade flashed with a bloodthirsty light.
He dodged a flying axe with a sway of his body, and appeared in front of a gangster the next second.
The pitch-black axe blade chopped off the torch in the bandit's hand and pierced into his neck in the direction where the flame went out.
The head and blood splattered at the same time. He grabbed the body with his backhand and threw it to the side, knocking the two gangsters flying backwards.
Seeing that the demon was unable to defeat him, the bandit leader ran away.
Just as they passed by Irene and the others, Irene, who had been lowering her head and hugging her shoulders, suddenly raised her hand and fired a fireball which hit the bandit leader on the back. He screamed and fell forward, his mouth full of mud, and he quickly got up from the ground and continued to flee.
In just two or three breaths, Caesar easily killed the bandits who surrounded him.
These bandits are quite skilled in dealing with the elves. They have all kinds of cheap stuff like sleeping pills, smoke bombs, and pepper on them. However, for Caesar, who is much taller and bigger than the elves, these props are nothing but toys.
The toxicity of the drug meant nothing to him.
As soon as it was sucked into the mouth, it was immediately devoured and divided by the gluttonous bloodline, without even the need for the mysterious bloodline to take effect.
Chapter 225: Massacre
"Mr. Caesar, that man is trying to run away!" Irene pointed in the direction the bandit leader left.
At this moment, the bandit leader had almost disappeared into the depths of the jungle, and only a dark shadow could be vaguely seen.
Caesar glanced at him but did not chase after him.
"He can't run away." He said with a fierce smile: "I'm not the only one coming to help you."
