Chapter 396 397. My Relationship with Liu Erlong Is Not What You Think
(one more)
"elder brother."
The door of the luxurious carriage opened, revealing Xiao Wu's little brain.
However, when she saw the ambiguous situation in the carriage where Yang Ming and Vice President Liu Erlong were close to each other, Xiao Wu's small mouth showed an O-shape, and then she was about to close the carriage door with lightning speed.
"excuse me."
A look of embarrassment flashed across Yang Ming and Liu Erlong's faces, and they almost said in unison:
"Xiao Wu, it's not what you think."
Xiao Wu looked at Yang Ming on the left, and Liu Erlong on the right, her big eyes were filled with question marks, then she suddenly realized, and said:
"I understand."
What do you know?
Yang Ming felt that the matter was a bit serious. If Xiao Wu misunderstood the relationship between him and Liu Erlong, it would be too bad if it got out. He immediately coughed and said:
"Xiao Wu, don't worry about it, I'm just discussing the Royal Knights outside with the vice president."
While talking, Yang Ming frantically gave Liu Erlong a look.
Liu Erlong understood, and said solemnly:
"Speaking of which, the 500 Royal Knights outside are indeed the trump card of the Heaven Dou Empire. Although everyone is a nobleman, comparable to the emperor's relatives, they are still well-organized, well-disciplined, and have no arrogance at all. This is really rare, if not for their escorts, we would not have come all the way, all the cities greeted us with the highest standards, and we didn't encounter any troubles."
In the Heaven Dou Empire, knights are the lowest nobles, but they are also members of the nobles.
It was fine if Yang Ming and Liu Erlong didn't explain, but Xiao Wu's expression became more playful as soon as he explained, and he looked at the two with deep meaning.
Even a person with a thick skin like a steel plate can't bear Xiao Wu's gaze, not to mention that Yang Ming and Liu Erlong are not that kind of thick-skinned people, so they immediately smiled shyly and felt a little restless.
Just when Yang Ming was about to continue explaining forcibly, suddenly, a cold breath came from not far away.
Most of their team walks are official roads. Official roads can allow four carriages to run side by side at the same time. They are the necessary places for traffic between cities. Unless there are some places where they can take shortcuts, the team will choose to go. Some back roads.
But at this moment, when the convoy took a shortcut, they were between two low hills. It is said that crossing from here can save dozens of miles of travel, and although the mountain path is narrow, it can be regarded as The top is flat, and the carriage can pass without any problem.
Originally, according to the leader of the team, this road has never had any accidents, and it can reach the destination in advance, which is an excellent route.
But, it just happened to be such a coincidence that the accident happened here.
No, sometimes, unexpected accidents may not be accidents, but a kind of necessity!
The cold air came from the mountains on both sides of the path, and it was not only Yang Ming and the three in the carriage who felt this, but don't underestimate the Royal Knights who guarded them, even if they didn't mention that they belonged to the Heaven Dou Empire. The trump card army, just because they can become nobles, it means that they have at least the strength of soul masters above level 30.
The captain of the Royal Knights held a sword in his hand, the long sword was unsheathed, with a cold light shining, the tip of the sword was facing the sky obliquely, and his eyes were staring at the direction of the cold breath. For some reason, he was inexplicable. Feeling a sense of uneasiness.
The higher the soul master's level, the more diversified the application of soul power. This captain of the Royal Knights obviously tends to use the soul power in the perception side, so he has such a feeling.
The captain had always trusted his own perception, and it was precisely because of this that he felt more and more uneasy.
They have 500 royal knights here, and there are also teachers and students of the participating colleges. Their strength is not bad at all. Who is it that can make him feel this uneasiness?
The captain shook his head, and put aside the uneasiness in his heart, remembering that before leaving this time, Emperor Xue Ye solemnly entrusted the escort task to himself, and must protect the safety of these teachers and students, the captain With a fight in his heart, his face regained his composure, and he let out a mighty roar from his chest:
"All teammates listen to the order and be alert!"
The Royal Knights is indeed the trump card of the Heaven Dou Empire, and they are indeed well-trained. Following the command of the captain, all the members of the Royal Knights who were guarding the soul masters all clenched their knight spears, their eyes wide open. There was a murderous air in it.
On the contrary, those college teachers and students who went to Wuhun City to prepare for the competition had no sense of crisis at all, and they looked relaxed throughout the whole process, as if they were on vacation. Some people and their partners pointed at the royal knights around them, as if It's ridiculous for them to make such a fuss.
As with the students, so with the teachers.
Although it is said that the teachers and students of the academy who can go to the finals are very strong individually, and some of them are even stronger than the Royal Knights individually, but after all, they are teachers and students in the ivory tower. They have not experienced the experience of iron and blood. It is difficult to have such iron discipline.
Of course, it is also part of the reason why these senior soul master academy teachers and students despise those royal knights because of their promising future.
Of course, they do have this proud capital. After all, leaving aside those students, the teachers who accompanied the students are many soul kings, soul emperors, and soul saints. Not even one, but relying on this strength alone is enough to face a large army of more than 10,000 people.
Various reasons led to the formation of a situation where the entire team was tight on the outside and loose on the inside.
However, something slapped his face soon happened.
Accompanied by the sound of a desolate horn, in the next instant, countless falling rocks rolled down from the hills on both sides like raindrops. These falling rocks not only appeared very abruptly, but also very neatly. It was obvious that they were premeditated and organized. Roll down below.
Seeing the direction of these falling rocks, the captain of the Royal Knights suddenly changed his face and said:
"No, don't let these falling rocks fall, otherwise, our way forward and retreat will be blocked by these falling rocks!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
You know, the trail they are on now has hills on both sides, only the road in the middle, once the front and rear rows are blocked, they can only climb towards the two sides and cross over.
But if you think about it with your toes, since the group of unknown enemies dared to do this, they must have already laid a net on the hills on both sides. Once the convoy intends to break out from the two sides, it must have fallen into the enemy's trap!
