Chapter 92 The Horse Thief
When Li Huailin and Jared got out of the car, the horse thief had already run very close, only about 300 meters away from the convoy. The guards of the convoy also began to gather in front of the horse thieves. Since they were born as sergeants, the guards were very familiar with cavalry formations and quickly prepared.
The distance of 300 meters is only 20 seconds for a team of horse thieves. Soon the horse thief rushed to the front of the convoy, but instead of rushing to attack, he stopped in front. Li Huailin observed for a while, and there were about 70 or 80 horse thieves rushing over, each with a horse.
The team divided left and right, and three horse thieves who seemed to be the leader came to the front from the team. These three horse thieves are very young. The one in the lead looks to be only twenty-five or six years old, and looks pretty good, with short golden hair, the whole person looks energetic and energetic. And unlike other horse thieves, this guy is wearing chain armor, which looks more like a warrior. Li Huailin took a look at the guy's name, Gilbert.
On the left behind him is a male NPC younger than him, estimated to be about the same age as Li Huailin, but he is relatively ordinary, at least not so handsome compared to the leader Gilbert. He has short black hair, which is more common in mainland China, and is wearing a leather armor. The NPC's name is Ma Wen.
And the person behind Gilbert's right side made Li Huailin pay attention, not for other reasons, but because this guy is too conspicuous. Tall and muscular, Li Huailin was worried about the horse even when he was sitting on the horse, but that was not the point. The point was that this guy actually had two horns on his head.
"Beast race?" Of course Li Huailin thought of the six major races in the game settings.
On the bright side, the human race, needless to say. Elf, the main features are super beautiful (female) or handsome (male) face and pointed ears. Dwarves, bright square cups, main features: short. On the dark side, there is almost no difference between demons and humans, except for the strange red color of the eyes. Orc, the male side will automatically help you increase your height and become very strong, but there will be more horns on the head, wolf ears and the like. The female figure doesn't change, but the head will become cute things like rabbit ears and cat ears. Undead: A race as tragic as the dwarves, only those who have no pursuit of appearance will choose it.
And this horse thief looked like an NPC of the orc clan. Judging from the two horns, it should be an orc of the tauren clan. Although it is a very normal setting in this game, Li Huailin was quite curious when he saw a race other than humans for the first time. The orc NPC's name is Gulem Thunderhorn, and the name is strange enough.
"Who is the person in charge of the caravan in front, come out." The horse thief Gilbert, the leader, stood at the front and shouted at Li Huailin and others.
"I am." Jared stood at the front without hesitation, and said to Gilbert, "What's the matter?"
"I'm Gilbert, the leader of Nasser's bandit group. Now it's a robbery. Hand over all the goods. I can guarantee your safety. Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless." Gilbert shouted confidently, Following his shout, the seventy or so horse thieves behind him raised their weapons at the same time, and then shouted in unison, threatening each other with their voices.
"Bold horse thief, do you know whose goods this is, this is the goods of the Marquis of Filmut! Don't you dare to hit the head of the Marquis, aren't you afraid of death!" Jared shouted loudly .
"Marquis Filmut? Who is it?" Gilbert on the opposite side obviously didn't know the name,
Then Marvin next to him moved forward a little, and then whispered a few words in Gilbert's ear, probably introducing the matter of the Marquis of Firmut.
After a while, Gilbert nodded: "Marquis Firm? It sounds so bluffing, but what's the matter? This is the province of Udesa, not the City of God's Rescue. Here, I, Gilbert Te is the one who decides! I will warn you again, leave your things, and you can leave, otherwise we will be impolite, I will count to ten, and you want to answer clearly!"
"Damn it, I met a fool." Jared didn't expect that the other party would not even give the Marquis of Firmett any face. If the Marquis of Firmett really knew about this, according to his personality, he would definitely be punished. About the extermination of the genocide, but how to notify the Marquis of Firmut now.
"Ten, nine..." Gilbert over there had already started counting.
"Listen up, everyone!" Jared said standing in the crowd. "Everyone knows who these goods belong to. Think about Lord Marquis's temper. If you fight now, you can go back to receive the reward if you win, and die in battle." Now, your wives and children will not be implicated either. If you take the initiative to hand over things, not only you will be executed after returning, but your wives and children will also be degraded into slaves, everyone think about the consequences!"
Everyone's expressions changed. Thinking about what was really going on, the Marquis of Firmut could indeed do such a thing. Several members of the chamber of commerce who wanted to hand over their things immediately gave up this idea and began to think about how to deal with it. The guards were originally sergeants, and they only waited for orders from their superiors. Now that Jared said they would fight back, they were immediately ready to fight.
"Warrior, can you fight with us? If you win, I will definitely reward you with a lot of money when I go back." Jared turned his head and said to Li Huailin again.
System prompt: Captain Jared issued an A-level mission to defend the caravan. Whether to accept.
"No!" Li Huailin refused without even thinking about it. This Chamber of Commerce is a very rich organization at first glance. If you reward yourself with ten gold or something, if you are deducted by the system, your deposit will be cleared directly, and it is still A-level Tasks, experience will not be less, who will do such a boring task.
"Warrior, even your own life is in danger now, why don't we fight the horse thief together." Seeing Li Huailin's refusal, Jared wanted to persuade him again. Although he didn't know Li Huailin's strength, there were many people. This combat power is real.
"No time, you guys go call yourself." Li Huailin resolutely resisted this kind of cheating mission. Recently, he has been cheated too much by NPCs, so he must slow down.
"This... oh..." Jared sighed, but he didn't know Li Huailin very well, so he couldn't force it, so he turned around and shouted to the members of the chamber of commerce and the guard soldiers below, "We have no way out, we can only fight to the death." Fight! Pick up your weapons and fight! Only by fighting can you go back alive!"
"Fight!" All the people shouted together, even the members of the chamber of commerce who had no combat ability also shouted together, just to strengthen their courage.
"It seems that there is no need to count." Of course, Gilbert here also found the opposite choice, and there is no need to count at all. He waved his hand and said to the horse thieves behind him, "Brothers, the negotiation broke down. Ready to fight!"
"Ouhou!!" The horse thieves behind shouted together.
"Kill!" Gilbert pulled out the two-handed sword behind him, stepped on his horse, and rushed directly to the first one. Following his roar, Marvin and Gulem behind him also immediately drew out their weapons, followed Behind Gilbert. And behind them were about seventy horse thieves. Although they shouted in disorder, the sprinting team was surprisingly neat, as if they had received some training.
There are more than 70 people on the opposite side, and there are only twenty guards and a dozen ordinary caravan members on the opposite side. Merchants with little combat effectiveness can be said to be at an absolute disadvantage. From the very beginning, the guards had no intention of getting on their horses and charging each other. Instead, they directly used the carriages and horses as obstacles to form a defensive posture.
Facing the defensive formation, Gilbert, who was at the front, had no intention of turning around at all, and rushed directly to the place with the most people. The guard looked at Gilbert who was rushing over, and at the same time he raised his gun, preparing to let Gilbert hit the spear and stab himself to death.
Unexpectedly, Gilbert pulled the rein in his hand and stepped on the spurs with both feet. After the horse under his feet neighed, he jumped up directly. When several guards were stunned, Gilbert swung the big sword in his hand and stabbed the nearest soldier in the face.
With a sound of flesh piercing, the soldier fell to the ground in an instant, while Gilbert ran into the guards with his horse and man, directly opening a bloody path.
"Kill me!" Gilbert jumped off his horse, which could no longer stand up, and shouted while holding up his bloody sword.
