This miracle is not only that the road is very flat, but also that it has a certain ability to protect pedestrians. The strength of anyone who robs on this road will be severely weakened, and if someone is killed on this road, then the murderer will be "punished by God."
But this group of people acted without hesitation and attacked with weapons in hand.
"Damn, these lunatics! Brothers, go ahead! With the blessing of the Road God, we are invincible!"
"kill!!!"
The guards picked up the long swords at their waists and slashed at the attackers. There were wisps of transparent waves mixed on the blades. The cat hidden in the cargo clearly felt that the aura of the guards had become different at this moment.
Ding! ! !
A guard stared blankly at the severed long sword in his hand and the blade with wisps of black mist wrapped around his neck. This group of people showed no signs of being weakened. Instead, each of them was extremely powerful. Almost no one could be a match for this group of men in black.
The battle ended quickly. The men in black used the long blades in their hands to kill the guards like cutting vegetables, and cut off their heads. They used their blood to water the long blades in their hands. Originally, the black mist on the long blades had been consumed in the previous battle, but after absorbing the blood on the long blades, the black mist gradually recovered and became thicker.
(Fuck, what a bunch of perverts!)
After circling the carriage, the cat timidly shrank back into the cargo. It was not that it did not want to run, but it was really afraid that the group of men in black outside would get angry and want to kill any living thing they saw. If it ran out at this time, wouldn't it be courting death?
The cat licked its paws nervously. Its only hope now was to sneak away quietly while the bandits were stealing the goods.
However, after waiting for a long time, they found that the robbers did not touch the goods, but gradually walked towards the carriage.
(Oh, it's that girl!)
It suddenly remembered that there was a stunningly beautiful white-haired woman in the car, but in this situation, it was afraid that no one could save her.
The cat is now very anxious, but helpless. There is no way. It is just a cat now and can't even protect itself, so how can it think of saving people?
The group of black-clad men outside gradually surrounded the carriage. One of them suddenly stretched out a long blade and cut off half of the top of the carriage. Then the door of the carriage burst open. A white-haired girl in the carriage holding a mithril sword swung a big fireball at the black-clad men outside the door.
Because it happened so suddenly, the men in black didn't have time to disperse in time. Two or three of them were hit by the fireball and their bodies were ignited by faint blue flames.
Seeing this, the person who was hit by the fireball swung his sword and fiercely cut off the burning part of his body. The wound did not bleed but was charred black. The cut part was burned into ashes before it hit the ground.
"Strengthen, accelerate, coordinate, and be sensitive"
The white-haired girl took advantage of the chaos and gave herself several strengthening skills. At the same time, her long sword was covered with blue flames. She jumped out of the carriage and killed two people in a flash. She came to the front of the carriage and cut off the props that controlled the horse's freedom with a sword. She turned over, rode on the horse's back, squeezed the horse's belly, and rode away.
The group of men in black were dumbfounded, they had never expected that there was such a strong girl hiding in the car, and the escape plan just now was so smooth as if it had been rehearsed thousands of times. The roadblocks they had set up so far could only target large carriages, but a single horse could easily pass through if someone deliberately controlled it, and they neglected this point, resulting in a living person slipping out of their encirclement.
"What are you guys still standing there for?! Chase after them!"
The leading man in black patted the two men who could ride horses beside him and pointed at the two remaining horses in front of the carriage.
"Yes!"
The two men quickly took the horses off the carriage and chased in the direction the girl fled.
"Hurry up and clean up here! Check the cargo to see if there is any food. If not, drag it to the side and burn it together with these corpses."
"Yes!!"
Seeing them coming to move the goods, the cat quietly showed its head. After they put away the long blades, there was obviously more human aura. Before, with the long blades in their hands, they were silent and looked like killing weapons. Facing this group of people who had become more human, the cat suddenly felt that his chances of survival had become greater.
"You two take this big box down and see what's inside."
"Yes!"
The cat felt the big box beside it being slowly moved away, revealing a path beside it. In the sunset glow, it could vaguely see that it was an empty wilderness.
But after confirming that no one was guarding the opening, the cat suddenly jumped out and ran madly towards the wilderness.
"what!!"
Sensing a sudden movement here, the two men in black suddenly drew out their long blades and looked in the direction where the cat escaped.
(I’m going to die!!)
The instinct of a wild animal told him that he was being targeted by something extremely dangerous, but he couldn't stop. All the hair on his back stood up.
When the two men saw that it was a cat that ran away, they breathed a sigh of relief and put away their long blades.
"What's going on with you guys?"
The leader felt someone draw a weapon and hurried over to inquire.
"No, it's okay, boss. A cat just came out of the cargo box. Let it run away."
He looked at the truck and the direction the cat had just escaped in confusion. After the large boxes on the truck were moved away, some remains of dried fish were clearly seen. This cat had been kept in the truck before.
I thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out the reason for doing this, so I waved my hand.
"It's just a cat, what's the big fuss?"
He turned around and urged others to burn the body quickly.
At this time, the cat waited until the sense of crisis in itself completely subsided, then quietly hid in a taller haystack and watched every move of the group of people on the road.
Although the details were unclear, it was clear that they moved all the items together and then set them on fire.

happy New Year!
Chapter 8 Meow Meow Meow? ? (I)
There were flames shooting up into the sky on the side of the road, the shrine road was in a mess, with blood and broken weapons and armor scattered everywhere.
The cat lay quietly in a haystack in the wild, observing the situation outside. When it was sure that everyone had left, it quietly poked its head out of the haystack, looked around, and then quietly slipped back to the shrine.
It was already night, but after driving for half a day, the vehicle still did not see any human gatherings. Based on the information the cat had obtained in the trading house, it was speculated that the safe driving time during the day should be the distance from the town to the shrine, which means that this road is absolutely safe to a certain extent.
But no one knows how far it is from the next human gathering point.
Although I had seen fence-like buildings in the surrounding fields before, when I really went to take a closer look, I found that they were built a long time ago and had long been dilapidated.
The cat looked at the endless Shinto road in despair and lowered its head in frustration.
There is no choice but to walk slowly.
How far can a cat walk? It doesn't even know.
But I can be thankful that I am not a purebred pet cat like the ragdoll I saw in my previous life.
Otherwise, just based on the distance I estimated with my own eyes, I would probably walk to death.
A cat was strolling on the shrine path. It was already late in the evening, and warm yellow light was lit up on both sides of the road, probably acting as street lamps.
(What an amazing design, how did they do it? Magic?)
As a person reincarnated from the materialistic world, no, it's a cat.
The first time I saw magic was by the white-haired girl. Although I couldn’t see it very clearly because I was lying in the gap at that time, the scene of her making fireballs with bare hands was still quite shocking.
Although I have seen many magicians achieve similar effects in my previous life, I can guess that they must have used some props.
(There is no real magic on earth...)
The cat was walking on the road, looking at the magic lamp on the roadside and lost in thought. He had walked for some distance without realizing it. When he looked back, he could no longer see the flames rising into the sky behind him.
The cat's steps suddenly stopped for two reasons.
One is that it suddenly feels tired and needs to rest and eat.
The second thing is that it suddenly remembered, isn't this a highway? Can't I just squat beside the road and wait for the bus? !
Thinking of this, the cat sat down and almost collapsed on the side of the road.
From time to time, it looked at the end of the road on both sides, hoping that a carriage would take it for a ride.
It is obvious that it made a mistake at this point. First of all, this is a road, but if it is broken down, it belongs to the category of expressway.
Although the carriage was not particularly fast, the existence of magic in this world made some things unusual...
Have you ever seen people hailing a taxi on the highway?
Not to mention it's a cat now.
"Meow~~~"
After lying on the ground and waiting for a long time without seeing any carriage, the cat stretched itself and became a little impatient. Finally, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.
It stood up smartly and looked in the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from. Then several shadows passed by it.
"!!!!!!"
(What the hell was that just now?)
Even with a cat's powerful dynamic vision, it could only vaguely see two shadows. If it weren't for the oncoming wind pressure just now, it would have doubted whether it had seen it wrong.
Chapter 9 Meow meow meow? ? (Part ) (Additional update)
Itfil is a senior female police officer in the city of Swell. Her main tasks are to ensure the safety of pedestrians on the Shinto Road and to crack down on criminal gangs outside the city.
Although it is said that the power of Shinto can almost guarantee that travelers will not be attacked, this was a few years ago. Since when, some bandits have been able to ignore the power of Shinto and wantonly attack pedestrians on the road.
When the news spread, the whole empire was shocked. The miracle of God's coming was actually desecrated by robbers and endangered the safety of the people.
The king of the empire showed no tolerance for such things. He immediately organized people to investigate these things and specially organized a special cleanup team. The team was composed of elite warriors and mages. They followed the king's will to clean up the perpetrators of the robbery and killing incidents that occurred in various Shinto areas in the empire. At the same time, they assisted investigators in finding out why they were able to act recklessly on Shinto.
Just as Itfil received a report from his subordinates, pedestrians were killed on the shrine road within his area of responsibility, and only one girl escaped from the entire convoy.
When she saw the girl, she was immediately shocked by her aura, her slender white eyebrows, and her shining and fluttering silver hair. Even her body stained with blood could not conceal the girl's cold beauty. Instead, it added a touch of weirdness and solemnity, like a Valkyrie on the battlefield.
What is even more terrifying than the blood is the two heads in the girl's hands.
The girl threw the two heads in front of herself, and they rolled to her feet due to inertia.
"We encountered a group of bandits on the Shinto Road. All the people in my caravan were killed there. There were probably about a dozen of them. I didn't see them clearly. You guys go over and deal with them."
The girl stared at her and said this without a trace of fluctuation in her voice before turning around and leaving. At the gate of the police compound was lying a dead horse. According to the report of her subordinates, the horse seemed to be the girl's mount. Based on her experience, Itfil saw that the girl must have desperately used magic to drive the horse forward, and the horse could no longer withstand such high-intensity running. After stopping, it lost the support of magic and fell to the ground and died instantly.
"Cold and heartless..."
Itfil looked at the departing white figure and made his assessment of the man.
She then immediately ordered her subordinates to prepare their luggage and head to the crime scene.
But she also understood that if she rushed there at this distance, a horse would die. The thieves would probably have all escaped.
But this is within the scope of my responsibility after all. Even if I can't catch the person, it is still necessary to go and clean up the mess.
What's more, it's not my turn to deal with such incidents.
"You, report immediately that woodworms have appeared on the shrine road west of Swell City. Notify Woodpecker to come and clean it up."
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, a soldier quickly ran out of the compound, while the other team members had already prepared their travel props.
It looks like a saddle, but it is actually installed on the back of a bipedal running dragon. However, having this one prop is not enough. The Shinto has its own speed limit. When running on the road without relevant props, the carriage can only maintain its normal running speed at most.
However, if the traveler is equipped and wears a badge, he can increase his speed on the Shinto path according to the level of the badge.
Even though Itfil is a senior superintendent, her badge is still the same basic black iron color as her subordinates. However, even the most basic black iron color can increase the speed by nearly twice when combined with the saddle. In addition, they are riding bipedal running dragons. With the speed bonus of more than twice, the normal human eye cannot even catch the figure of the bipedal running dragon.
So they formed a wind-breaking formation and headed towards the direction of the incident.

After speeding all the way, Itfil and his crew finally arrived at the scene. As expected, when they arrived, all that was left were traces of burning on the roadside and bloodstains on the road surface.
"Come down and explore around to see if there are any other survivors around. Exploration team, go and look for any signs of the thieves' escape."
Itfil rolled off his mount and walked towards the burning site with two members of the autopsy team.
"Sir, the body has been burned almost completely, and it is almost impossible to distinguish its features. But the only thing that is certain is that the thieves this time should be the same group that appeared all over the country. The characteristic of their killing is exactly the same, which is to cut off the head."
Itfil looked at the bodies that were burned beyond recognition and felt a trace of disdain for the two autopsy officers.
Damn it, I can see it, and you tell me this? Then why did I bring you two out here?
"But it seems that there are not only bodies at the scene, but also no signs of the cargo being touched. Only the food accompanying the convoy is missing."
???
Itfil watched in shock as the two coroners turned over the pile of black charcoal that had been burned to nothing.
