Heroes of the Invincible Knight

"ah!"

"puff!"

"Clang!"

With the neck of the last member of the patrol team cut off by Hypatia, the road that was still killing people just now suddenly became quiet.

Only the strong smell of blood that began to spread in the air reminded everyone that a one-sided massacre just happened here.

The battle started suddenly and ended quickly. From Tal's attack, the entire battle process probably did not exceed 30 seconds. The difference in combat power was too great.

On the patrol side, even the leader is only at the level of an elite soldier. How can he be an opponent of the elite half-orcs selected by the orc kingdom with all the power of the country?

Even if this group of half-orcs is an officer who can lead at least 500 people in the army of orcs, they are all concentrated here to attack an ordinary patrol team of farmers and soldiers. Most of them didn't even have a trace of blood on them, which shows the huge gap.

"Brother Tal, what shall we do now?"

Hypatia, who had vented her violent emotions, finally came back to her senses at this moment. Although she was a little impulsive, she was not stupid. She knew that this shot by herself and others would not be conducive to the execution of the task at all.

"Heh, what else can we do? We can't explain to the Legion Commander when we go back now, let's continue the investigation, and we will be ready to be besieged by the human lord next."

"What are you afraid of? If they dare to come, I will kill them one by one."

"well"

Tal smiled wryly and shook his head. The matter has come to this point, and he has nothing to do. He agrees with Hypatia's reckless words, and there is really nothing to do next.

It is impossible for him to bring a really capable manpower, and he turned back within a day after he came out, saying that he couldn't make a job with the legion commander, and he himself was embarrassed to go back in this situation.

Simply their team is strong enough. In Tal's view, as long as they don't defend the human army head-on, their team only focuses on exploring the terrain and escaping. Even if humans want to encircle them, as long as they are careful, there will be no harm great danger,

After all, there are no dragon knights in the north, and there are no strong men of the earth rank, so they are invincible in small-scale battles.

"let's go!"

"where are we going?"

"Go to the nearest human town first, at least you have to disguise yourself, like a group of merchants, what do we look like, oh."

"Okay, let's go, and we'd better get some food when we go to human towns. I don't have the snow giants to send prey these days, and I eat the dry food I brought with me every day. I don't even have any oil or meat in my mouth. I'm going to be hungry Already!"

Tal and others quickly buried the bodies of Mokone and others and continued southward.

Although Mokone's patrol team has to attract attention sooner or later, but burying the corpses as a cover-up can delay a little time, so that their bodies will be discovered later, and Tal and others will have more room for.

…

night

Near Xiaoshi Village, a large group of people with torches were searching for something.

At least 50 cavalrymen and 300 peasants and soldiers gathered near Xiaoshi Village, which was already the largest mobile force that the surrounding villages and towns could draw.

"Captain, I've searched all around, but I didn't find the patrol team from Xiaoshi Village."

"Keep looking, if you want to see people, if you want to see dead bodies."

"Yes, my lord!"

It can be said that the patrol team in Xiaoshi Village disappeared without a sound. The patrol team that had changed shifts with them decisively reported the abnormality when they waited for half an hour and did not wait for the Mokone team. The officials also paid great attention to the anomalies in Xiaoshi Village, and deployed the greatest force within the scope of their own jurisdiction to search for the disappeared patrol team.

"Looks like something went wrong..."

The captain of the cavalry knew very well that a patrol team of peasants and soldiers patrolling this familiar territory would basically not be late or missed. Today's weather is also good, not extreme weather, let alone accident , Now from afternoon to night, a few hours have passed, and they have not been found. The possibility of being alive may not be great.

"My lord, my lord! There is a situation here!"

"Take me to have a look."

…

Just in a dwarf forest beside the road where Tal and others slaughtered the patrol team of Merkone, a group of peasants and soldiers finally found the blood in the forest. , and the patrolling area of ​​the Mokone patrol team was not that big, and the search area was limited at the beginning. After several rounds of investigation, someone finally found a dark red blood in the woods.

"The soil here has been newly moved."

"These plants are not right either!"

"Dig for me!"

Following the captain's order, the surrounding peasants and soldiers began to shovel the soil with their weapons. There were no suitable tools at this moment, and it was not the time to cherish their weapons.

"There are dead bodies here!"

"I also found a dead body here!"

The corpse was not buried deep, and soon the peasants and soldiers dug out the corpses of Mo Kangne ​​and others.

"It's from the Xiaoshi Village patrol team!"

"I know this person! He even greeted me two days ago!"

"This is Captain Merkone!"

There are basically a few acquaintances in each village in this small place, and there is no need to find someone to identify the corpse. The corpse has just been buried, and its appearance is still intact. The farmers and soldiers in charge of the excavation can recognize the corpse.

As the corpses were carried to the open space one by one, the cavalry captain who was riding on the horse had already dismounted to observe.

Almost all of them were killed by one blow. Is there any room for these peasants and soldiers to resist, including captain Mo Kangne?

The captain of the cavalry frowns more and more. He has rich combat experience and can get more information than others, and even now his heart is starting to feel a little nervous.

He can judge that even if he meets these people with his elite cavalry, he probably has no chance of surviving, it is completely crushing strength.

"A total of thirty-three corpses, exactly the number of people on the patrol team of Xiaoshi Village!"

None of them ran away, perhaps because the peasants and soldiers were brave enough, or more because they had no chance to escape at all.

"It's a big deal."

This is the inner thought of the cavalry captain.

"Be more vigilant!"

"Squad two and squad three go back separately and report to Ironwood City!"

The cavalry captain divided the reporting team into two teams, obviously afraid that they would not be able to send the situation to Ironwood City in time if they were intercepted.

"Others, gather together for the time being, continue to investigate, and order the surrounding towns to be more vigilant!"

"Yes, my lord!"
