Chapter 293 Night Attack

In the battle of the Portal Bandits that ended not long ago, Viscount Vitorino of the Pointed City did not attend the scene, but sent his honorary knight Hamet Lev to lead the team.

Ronin only knew that this person was a bronze knight, and he had no special impression of him. He couldn't even remember his appearance.

"This time, Wushan Territory defeated the Portal Bandits. It is said that Lord Hamet killed everyone in the battle, and even the second leader of the other side almost died under his sword!"

The man named Philip's eyes were full of yearning.

Most knights hope that they can wear armor and hold a long sword to kill everyone on the battlefield, but this is just a dream. In reality, not everyone chooses to go to the battlefield.

Because they know that they may die before the enemy arrives on the battlefield.

"Lord Hamet has followed the Viscount for many years. This time, he finally promoted from an honorary knight to a baron with his outstanding military exploits. Stranglethorn Vale is his territory."

Hearing the admiration in Philip's tone, Ronin smiled.

If he remembered correctly, Hamet didn't even meet the second leader, Holden, in the battle of the Stone City to annihilate the army of the bandits, right?

I just don't know whether these words are boasting by outsiders or from the other party.

Philip glanced at the carriage where Les was, and couldn't help saying: "I see that you seem to be familiar with Baron Hamet. Now his only son and lover are in the team. Do you want to meet them?"

Ronin frowned.

The only son and lover, these two people put together, it seems to be a drama of illegitimate children becoming legal?

The law of this world has clear provisions that illegitimate children have no inheritance rights.

Could it be that Hamet dared to challenge the law just after becoming a baron?

Ronin shook his head. He was not interested in such things. "It is not a good habit to leak the identity information of the employer to outsiders."

After saying this, he walked into the tent.

Philip scratched his head, and didn't get any useful information.

But it was not without gain. He knew that the baron's identity was not ordinary from the fact that Ronin had no awe of him.

As for revealing the employer's identity, they were just asked by Knight Willy to send Les and Pik to Stranglethorn Vale, which was not an employment relationship.

As night fell, the camp was lively for a while.

However, as everyone finished their meal, they all went back to the carriage to sleep, and only some people stayed outside to keep watch.

In the tent, Ronin sat cross-legged on the bed.

On the small table in front of him, a piece of Warcraft leather was neatly placed. At this moment, he was concentrating on drawing the spell scroll of the third-level magic wind of exploration.

Now Elron focuses on the production of magic potions, and the output of spell scrolls is much less than before.

In order to generate income, Ronin had to take over part of it.

Speaking of which, he is now a wizard, and it stands to reason that he can try to make a sixth-level spell scroll.

It's a pity that the production cost of a level 6 spell scroll is about 500 gold coins, and the gold coins in Ronin's pocket are only enough for him to fail dozens of times.

It's better to consider the level 3 or 4 spell scrolls, which can make a lot of money with a higher success rate.

Drawing spell patterns on Warcraft leather not only tests the magician's concentration, but also involves the magician's communication with the elements of heaven and earth when drawing.

This unique sense of immersion makes the magician very sensitive to the outside world.

"Rustle~"

In the middle of the night, Ronin's senses suddenly added a lot of footsteps in addition to the sound of wind blowing leaves and the breathing of the caravan members around him.

Hmm?

He thought about it, and heard a hiss, and the magic leather was hit by the distracted magic power, and a piece was burned like it was burned by fire.

Dozens of gold coins were wasted.

Tonight, his success rate in making spell scrolls was 100%. He thought he would be done after making this, but he didn't expect to fail once, which made him very unhappy.

But thinking of the continuous footsteps outside, Ronin released the wind of detection.

The early detection wind had a detection range of at most two or three hundred meters. The magician could amplify the power of basic magic. Now Ronin could use it to sense the situation within a range of nearly a thousand meters.

I saw a group of people slowly approaching the camp four or five hundred meters away.

"Robbers?"

After traveling for so long, it was the first time he encountered robbers on the road.

"Tom, David."

Two figures immediately appeared outside the tent, "My lord!"

"Go and inform that White and Philip, let them be alert, there is a group of people approaching four or five hundred meters southwest."

The two were shocked and immediately drew their swords and picked up their shields. David stood outside the tent on guard, and Tom ran over to inform others.

"Get up!"

He patted Philip and White on the face.

The two had been running caravans for many years and slept very lightly. This pat made them startled and woke up immediately.

"You?"

"What's the matter with you not sleeping at this late hour?"

They were a little unhappy to be disturbed, but they didn't show it. They knew the person in front of them was the young man's follower.

"My master asked me to tell you that there are enemies approaching four or five hundred meters to the southwest. I advise you to be on guard immediately."

Enemy?

The two looked at the people on guard outside who were not asleep, and looked at the tent again. They immediately felt that Tom was making fun of them.

"Brother, don't tell me that your master can know what is happening four or five hundred meters away in the tent?"

"Yeah, it's pitch dark, where is anyone?" Although White was more cautious, he looked carefully in the distance and found no movement.

Obviously, neither of them took it seriously.

But at this moment, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Sharp arrows shot through the air and directly killed the two night watchmen standing on the outside.

Everyone was shocked, and Fili and White also changed their expressions, and immediately shouted loudly: "Bandit... enemy attack! enemy attack!"

Suddenly, the camp was in chaos.

At this time, amid rapid and dense footsteps, dozens of figures rushed over quickly and surrounded the entire camp.

It is no longer possible to escape at this time.

"Quick, focus!"

Fili and White shouted, and the chaotic camp gradually regained some order.

People stood together, either with swords drawn or spears on guard.

But in this team of more than 20 people, there are only ten capable people, and they are no match for the opponent at first glance.

"Haha, I didn't expect you guys to be able to calm down."

Just hearing laughter, a tall man wearing light armor strode forward.

"He's from the Wolf Slayer Mercenary Group."

Feili's sharp eyes recognized the person's identity at a glance, and his face darkened.

"Captain Bauer, when did the Wolf Slayer Mercenary Group start robbing?"

"robbery?"

The leader of the mercenary group, Bauer, smiled disdainfully: "The mercenary group doesn't do such things."

"Then why did you kill our people?"

White warned in a low voice: "Aren't you afraid of offending Knight Willy?"

Mercenary groups are equivalent to "civilian forces". Some mercenary groups are strong and can even serve as mercenaries. However, under normal circumstances, they have a cooperative relationship with the nobles and rarely provoke the nobles.

Knight Willy is an honorary knight loyal to the Dennis family. He is also the lowest noble. The mercenary group usually gives him some face.

"Sorry, everyone here has to die today."

Bauer said coldly: "If you want to blame it, blame it on your team for taking in people who shouldn't be taken in."

White and Feili were shocked.

Uh-huh!

Everyone turned to look at Luo Ning. Some people had doubts in their eyes, but some had hatred in their eyes.

Just taking in three people to stay overnight actually brought disaster to the entire convoy?

"Watch what I do?"

Luo Ning felt baffled. Even if someone wanted to assassinate him, they would not arrange such a mercenary group that was not worthy of the publicity. (End of chapter)
