Chapter 218 The Call of the Heart
The Monroe family was in a small mountain in the Sunshine Valley, and caves were excavated in the mountainside of that mountain. The caves intersected with each other, and many amazing defensive measures were arranged inside.
Han Shuo came from the air and stopped on a towering ancient tree more than ten meters away, looking towards the source of the noisy sound.
I saw billowing smoke billowing from the caves where the Monroe family stationed troops, and some cave entrances were blazing with flames. It seemed that the insides should be on fire.
In those caves, many stone chambers were excavated. The stone chambers are like rooms with all kinds of living facilities inside. Many stone chambers are even more luxuriously decorated than some shops in the Sunshine Valley. They only need a fire dragon to get in and burn quickly. Fires are very normal.
At the exit of the hill, a group of fast-moving people covered their heads and covered their faces. Some fire magicians inside chanted fire magic from time to time, and sprayed tongues of fire towards the entrance of the cave.
This group of people moved quickly and cooperated very tacitly. The fire magician set the fire, and the wind magician used the wind to promote the spread of the fire. A few archers held bows and arrows and forced the Monroe family members who poked their heads out of the cave to go in.
The whole hill occupies a very large area. After excavating the empty mountainside, many large and small caves and stone chambers were added. This group of troublemakers only targeted a corner of the mountain to destroy. Once people from other places came to help, they immediately retreated stealthily and hid in the surrounding bushes for cover. They are obviously very familiar with the surrounding terrain, and they are very good at this kind of activity of changing places after a battle. Once someone finds a trace, immediately retreat while fighting and quickly move away, then make a big circle, and come back from another place to destroy for a while.
If it is in a normal state. This group of troublemakers with only a few dozen people, when the first wave of attack was found to have not retreated, it is very likely that they will fall into an eternal death situation.
However, the situation of the Monroe family is also very chaotic. This group of troublemakers running around is not the main force this time at all. A group of robbers with four to five hundred people in chaotic clothes is the focus of the Monroe family's care. These robbers don't know what the purpose is. They just gathered around the Monroe family and attacked any members of the Monroe family who came out of the cave. The two sides were in a battle.
Standing in the distance and watching for a while, Han Shuo watched Trunks and his gang, taking advantage of the scuffle between the two sides, to make trouble everywhere. I couldn't help but laugh, but I didn't expect Trunks to have such a talent. This mission aimed at the Monroe family was originally intended to arouse the suspicion of the Monroe family towards other forces, but Han Shuo was a little surprised that it turned out to be like this.
More men and horses, wearing shining armor and holding sharp weapons, returned from a very distant road. Han Shuo could tell clearly from the clothes that this group of people belonged to the Monroe family, and there were about five or six hundred people. Each one is extraordinary,
It should be the elite troops of the Monroe family.
The direction the group returned was exactly where Trunks and his group were staying. Seeing Trunks and his party, Han Shuo didn't notice the possible crisis, and planned to make trouble again. Finally, he stopped staying in place and flew towards them.
The sky has turned white. Dots of stars do not know when to hide in the depths of the sky. Looks like it will be dawn soon. Just when Trunks was about to take advantage of the chaos to attack the ground for the last time, a black shadow landed in front of him with a "whoosh".
Startled Trunks. When he found out that it was actually Han Shuo, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why are you here?"
"I passed by here on the way, and I just saw the elite of the Monroe family return, so I planned to come in from here, shall we leave quickly?" Han Shuo smiled slightly, and told Trunks about the current situation without talking nonsense. for a moment.
Upon hearing that the elite of the Monroe family had returned, Trunks let out a low growl, and made a gesture towards the mercenaries in the distance.
These guys covered their heads and covered their faces. When they saw Trunks' gesture, they immediately understood. They didn't gather together and leave. Disappeared without a trace.
"Let's go!" Trunks was not idle, turned his head and smiled at Han Shuo, and burrowed into the dense bushes.
The towering ancient trees were covered with thick snow, which blocked the light above. It was difficult to walk through the dense bushes, but Trunks' figure was not hindered. He led Han Shuo through many winding paths, and within half an hour The time left the Monroe family's mountain and appeared on the road to Shining Sun Valley.
"They used to be old mercenaries of the Rainbow Scythe Mercenary Group. When the old head was still there, everything around Sunshine Valley was under our control. We were so familiar with the surrounding terrain that we could even close our eyes. So you don't have to worry about the safety of their departure." Trunks explained to Han Shuo as soon as he left the mountain of the Monroe family.
Han Shuo stood on the high ground just now, and has observed the actions of these people. They cooperate with each other tacitly, and their strength is not weak. Most of them have the strength of intermediate swordsmen and intermediate knights. There are swordsmen inside, and there are many people with extraordinary archery skills. It seems that they are really old mercenaries from the former Rainbow Scythe Mercenary Corps, as Trunks said.
With such a group of people present, coupled with Trunks' planning and organization, the path of the Soul Destroyer Mercenary Corps in the future should be much smoother.
"By the way, what's going on with you? Why did a group of robbers come to the Monroe family?" Recalling the situation just now, Han Shuo couldn't help asking.
Asked by Han Shuo, Trunks couldn't help laughing, and then explained: "When we went to the Monroe family, we happened to see this bandit group planning to rob a group of merchants. These businessmen pointed out the way, and they followed our guidance and hid in the Monroe family.
Finally, the people of the Monroe family were alarmed, and the robbers fought with the Monroe family, and we took advantage of the chaos to make trouble everywhere. Originally, we thought that this team of robbers would be defeated immediately, and we had already made plans to retreat, but tonight, the elite of the Monroe family were transferred away from the mountainside, and we didn't know what to do.
Seeing that there were no more elites of the Monroe family coming out to attack them, the robbers continued to attack arrogantly. We also stayed for a while, and you will see what happened later! "
"So that's the case. Are there many such bandit forces in the mountains around Sunshine Valley?" Han Shuo nodded and asked with a smile.
"Of course, it is precisely because the Sunshine Valley is the center of the three countries, many big businessmen want to do business in the Sunshine Valley, so there are also a lot of bandit forces around, and there are even two bandit groups with the same number. Thousands of people were spontaneously formed by some wanted criminals from three nearby countries.
The leaders of these two bandit groups are a man and a woman. The man's name is Gustav, nicknamed the butcher, and he is a notorious wanted criminal in the Cassie Empire. It was really bad luck when he met a group of robbers. All the normal goods were robbed of beauties, and when he was in a bad mood, he also killed all the rest, leaving no one alive.
Back then, Florida cooperated with Gustav and framed our old regiment leader, which unfortunately killed him. Even my little sister disappeared together. I will kill Gustav sooner or later!
There is also a woman named Janet, er, this woman should be regarded as a daughter of her father, her father is a robber grandpa, a robber grandpa and a robber, a famous robber family near the Sunshine Valley Mountain Range. She was trained to be a robber from birth. Although this woman is not a good person, she still has rules. Usually, if she is encountered by her bandit group, as long as the businessman does not resist, she will not be in danger of her life!
In addition to the two largest bandit groups controlled by these two people, there are more than a dozen large and small bandit forces in the surrounding Sunshine Valley Mountain Range, but the remaining ones are a little smaller, without the fame and strength of these two people. The power has grown. "Tranks slowly explained for Han Shuo.
Han Shuo listened for a while, then carefully asked about the power of the bandit group, then nodded, and said: "It seems that the bandits and mercenaries in Sunshine Valley should complement each other. It is indispensable!"
"What do you mean?" Trunks asked.
"Without robbers, merchants don't need protection, and mercenaries can't make money. Without mercenaries, merchants dare not come to do business, and robbers have nothing to rob, so both robbers and mercenaries exist Sunshine Valley is completely reasonable.
With the strength of the four forces of Lauretta in Sunshine Valley, they should have the strength to eliminate these bandits, but maybe they understood this truth, so they didn't do anything and let those bandits exist. Han Shuo explained with a slight smile.
When Han Shuo said this, Trunks smiled and said, "That's right, the old regiment leader understood this truth a long time ago. I didn't expect you to figure it out so quickly!"
Nodding his head, Han Shuo looked at the sky and said, "Let's go, it's getting late, let's go back to Sunshine Valley quickly, I'm going to see things too."
After the rainbow sickle mercenary group left, Han Shuo always felt a voice calling him from a distance. At first, Han Shuo thought that the little skull was in danger again, but after careful identification, he found something wrong.
It wasn't until later that Han Shuo realized it carefully that the sound came from the Gloomy Forest, which is not very far from the Gloomy Forest, and the death cemetery is in the Gloomy Forest.
When Han Shuo found out that the call seemed to come from the dark forest, he immediately understood that the earth armor corpse should have successfully broken through the ground, but he could not come to him with the help of induction due to the influence of the enchantment of the death cemetery. , so it is only a passive signal.
