Chapter 18 The First Drop of Blood

Although there are trains in this world, they are only the most primitive coal-fired steam trains.

Inside the locomotive, workers continuously add coal to the boiler to generate steam to drive the train.

After the train started, a large amount of black smoke gushed out from the chimney on the locomotive, like a black flag.

Al was on the second-to-last train, and the people here were generally well-to-do people.

Because of the black smoke from the chimney of the locomotive, the environment and air in the compartments closer to the locomotive are worse.

Therefore, the farther back the carriage is, the better the environment and air will be, and the corresponding train ticket price will naturally be more expensive.

Especially the last carriage, it can be said to be extremely luxurious, comparable to some small luxury restaurants.

Originally, according to Al's idea, he just found a car near the front and sat down.

However, Aunt Mei and old Howard felt that he was going to take the exam, and if he got messy, it would inevitably have no impact.

So the two of them filled Al with a lot of money, and bought Al a seat in the penultimate train car to go to Yuanshan City.

Sitting by the window, Al looked at the scenery slowly passing by in the distance, and was still thinking about the knowledge in his mind.

Al is still very confident about being admitted to Solangoya University.

After all, with the ability of [Concentration], Al's mastery and memory of knowledge far exceeds that of ordinary people.

As the latest technological product in this world, for ordinary people, the speed of the train is already amazing.

But for Al who came here from another world, this speed is far from enough.

So when Al reviewed the knowledge in his mind for the third time, he finally felt bored.

After thinking about it, he simply took out the food that Aunt Mei had prepared for him, and ate it in small bites to pass the time.

However, while Al was eating, he suddenly saw the hillside where the train passed by in the distance.

There were five people riding horses and quickly approaching the train.

Seeing the cold light on their hands, it was obvious that they were holding weapons.

With this appearance, it is obviously impossible to take a ride in the wind.

The actions of those five people did not cover up at all, so it didn't take long for them to be discovered in Ayer, and almost everyone found out.

Immediately afterwards, on the train, police whistles sounded one after another.

Six guards armed with batons rushed to the last and second-to-last car.

Most of the carriages in front are miserable civilians and traveling businessmen, and it is impossible to have any money at all.

Therefore, anyone who robs a train basically chooses the penultimate and penultimate carriages as targets.

Al frowned slightly as he looked at the slightly trembling hands of the six guards holding batons.

With this kind of quality, if they are really caught on the train by those who lick their blood, Al doesn't think they can really protect themselves.

In the blink of an eye, those five people rode their horses and got infinitely close to the train.

Al looked at the ferocious expressions in those people's eyes, reached out and grabbed the iron sword wrapped in cloth, and made preparations for the unexpected.

Sure enough, as Al expected, after the five men rode close to the train, they all jumped onto the train with their weapons in their hands.

Except for one horse bandit who looked a little bloated, the rest jumped onto the train without any damage.

As for the bloated horse bandit, he was hit in the head by a guard wielding a baton.

But he seemed to be okay, he just shook his head, then punched the guard with a grinning grin.

Seeing that bloated horse bandit can knock people out with one punch.

Al initially judged that the opponent's strength was probably infinitely close to that of a lowly knight.

Moreover, the breathing rate of the other party is also different from that of ordinary people. Obviously, they also practice knight breathing.

It's just that Al got it from Lancer's "Dawn Breathing Method".

The breathing method practiced by these horse bandits is a bit out of date.

Al rolled his eyes a few times, and looked at the five horse bandits who were entangled with the six guards.

When he found out that the strongest among the five horse bandits was just a low-level knight, he relaxed a little.

Not to mention witchcraft, just the strength of a middle-level knight is enough for Al to protect himself in front of these five horse bandits.

So Al looked at the five horse bandits calmly, and knocked down the six guards with only minor injuries.

Then he laughed and rushed into the penultimate train compartment, and immediately the inside jumped up.

After staying in Linshan Town for several years, Al can be said to have a deep understanding of the rich people in this world.

It's not that there are no good people among the rich, but it would be nice to have one relatively good person out of ten rich people.

Capital is bloody, which is just right for the rich in this world.

Therefore, although Al was capable of stopping the five horse bandits, he did not make a move.

It's just that, sometimes, it's not that Al can't make a move if he can't think of it.

Worldly affairs often force a person to make a decision, rather than letting people choose calmly.

Four of the five horse bandits rushed out of the last carriage with a large bag of money.

However, when the fifth horse bandit rushed out, he not only brought a large bag of property, but also hugged a woman.

The woman kept struggling, and Al could tell that she was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she looked pretty good.

I'm afraid there are not a few men who usually pursue her.

However, today it is precisely because of her appearance that the horse bandits forcibly kidnapped her.

Seeing this scene, Al frowned slightly and narrowed his eyes slightly.

If he could sit idly by robbing the finances, then robbing the girl was beyond Al's tolerance.

Reaching out to grab the iron sword wrapped in cloth, Al was about to stand up, but another person rushed forward first.

"You horse bandits, it's okay to rob property, why do you want to rob people!"

The person who rushed forward one step ahead of Al was the youngest of the six previous guards.

At this time, he displayed a much stronger aura than before, but he had already reached the level of a low-level knight.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Al knew that he had misread just now, and he didn't even see that the young guard was hiding his strength.

It's just that, among the five horse bandits, two of them have indeed reached the level of low knights.

As for the other three, although they haven't reached the level of low knights, the difference is not too much.

One against five, and there are two of them who are equal to him, or even stronger by three points.

The result is, of course, self-evident.

The young guards attacked suddenly, and they also caught the loophole in the actions of the kidnapper and horse bandit.

So three times, five times and two times, he knocked down the horse bandit with the baton in his hand.

Then he directly rescued the sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, and pulled her back quickly.

It's a pity that the young guard just now didn't have a sword in his hand, otherwise, there would be one less horse bandit.

This point, the leader among the five horse bandits obviously also thought of it.

Therefore, his face was extremely gloomy, and he signaled the brothers beside him to go forward and test the young guard's strength.

Being tempted by his boss, among the five horse bandits, the middle-aged man with long face and beard came up first.

Waving a saber in his hand, the long-faced horse bandit walked towards the young guard step by step.

At this moment, the young guard pushed the girl behind him back, and signaled the surrounding passengers to leave as soon as possible.

He held his baton tightly with one hand, and looked warily at the long-faced horse bandit who was getting closer.

When the two got close to a certain distance, they rushed towards each other almost at the same time.

The saber and baton collided with each other, making a dull sound.

A baton covered with wood and iron is extremely powerful when facing hooligans.

But facing the saber of the long-faced horse bandit, it is powerless.

After several blows in front of him, the baton in the young guard's hand finally couldn't withstand the slashing of the saber and broke.

This opened the door to the young guard who was already at a slight disadvantage, and was about to be slashed on the chest with a saber.

At this moment, Al moved instantly, holding the iron sword wrapped in cloth with one hand and blocking the young guard's chest.

And then successfully helped the young guard block the knife of the long-faced horse bandit!

With a bang, the iron sword in Al's hand didn't move, and the saber that was chopped on the iron sword bounced back.

As for the young guard whose chest was blocked by the iron sword, he took three steps back due to the shock force.

The five horse bandits looked at Al in amazement, not understanding why there were so many masters on the train this time.

The leader of the horse bandit had a cold light in his eyes, and after thinking about it, he prepared to let his four brothers leave with him.

After all, the money has already been obtained, and other things can't be obtained.

However, just when the boss wanted to ask the brothers to retreat.

The horse bandit who had been stunned by the young guards came back to life earlier.

He recalled for a moment the fact that he was knocked out by the young guard, and immediately blushed and stood up roaring.

Pulling out the saber at his waist, the horse bandit blushed and rushed towards Al and the young guard angrily.

The incident happened suddenly, and the boss of the horse bandit couldn't stop it.

Seeing Al's eyes flicker with cold light, the iron sword in his hand turned into a cold light and slashed at the angry horse bandit.

The boss of the horse bandit thought in his heart that it was not good, and immediately shouted: "I ask this brother to be merciful!"

However, it was too late for the boss of the horse bandit.

What's more, Al didn't mean to show mercy at all.

I saw that a cold light flashed across the iron sword in Al's hand, and directly passed the throat of the angry horse bandit.

A line of blood bloomed from the throat of the angry horse bandit, and then a blood arrow shot out from the throat.

quick! allow! ruthless!

With the assistance of the [Focus] ability, the originally ordinary combat skills attached to the breathing method became extremely sharp.

All the moves are aimed at the vital points, which can be called a killing technique.

All of a sudden, everyone in the penultimate carriage held their breath, as if they couldn't believe what they saw!
