Chapter 683: Settle People's Hearts
"Ah......h
The screams were chilling.
Of the 8 giant arrows fired, three of them hit the target, one was slightly bounced off by the protective arrow, and the remaining two directly pierced the mage's fragile body, bringing up a very inconspicuous blood flower in the air.
The mage in the air died in an instant, and fell straight down, and the hearts of the pirates here were completely cold.
"Damn, our thieves! Didn't you say to assassinate the other party's priest and crossbow? ”
In the ranks of pirates, there was a leader who roared hysterically, venting his despair and incomprehension.
It's just that no one explained to him at this time, and the steel torrent composed of the dwarven shield guards and the Dom knights was devouring the lives of the enemy every moment.
Those who were lucky enough to turn their horses' heads and retreat soon found that a cavalry much faster than them was chasing them from behind, and on the backs of the vicious wolves and velociraptors sat bloodied orc warriors.
How can there be orcs in this place!?
At this point, most of the people had already sensed that something was wrong, and without anyone saying anything, let alone giving orders, everyone began to throw down their weapons and run in all directions, with neat movements.
At this time, it was only 2 minutes before the two sides began to fight.
The pirates were in disarray, the ranks of Runetera were in order, and the Dom Knights and Dwarven Shieldguards had limited speed, so they repelled the charge and immediately retreated, scattering around the caravan to prevent others from being attacked.
In charge of the pursuit was a group of cavalry, Wu Xiaoxiao, Dai Guang, and Compass, leading the cavalry team to rush all the way, frantically harvesting experience.
And beside the four crossbows, Damian stood quietly with a sword in one hand, bright red blood dripping from the blade of the snowy sword, and behind the orc swordmaster, two corpses lay lifeless on the ground, looking at the clothes, they were with those pirates.
"Thank you, Lord Damian!" Several dwarven craftsmen walked over and thanked the orcs in unison.
"What's polite, if you want to thank us, your lord is unpredictable, let me stay in advance to protect you." Damian smiled heartily.
Everyone nodded their heads and showed adoration, fortunately the Great Lord had made arrangements in advance, otherwise, these two assassins would probably really cause a lot of trouble.
After Lu Kuan shot one in the woods, he still didn't show up, and it wasn't until more than ten minutes later that the pirates below were completely killed and the cavalry team returned in full glory, and Lu Kuan came out of the cat's bushes.
"I don't know if there are any other mages,"
Lu Kuan looked up at the clear sky and thought to himself: "There must be, no matter how stupid the other party is, he will not be so light on the enemy, so he probably won't dare to show up." ”
Whether there is anyone else hiding in the shadows, Lu Kuan doesn't know, but he knows that the other party must be scared this time.
The team of seventy or eighty men was almost completely annihilated, and the caravan did not lose even half of its manpower, and a pile of booty was captured, the most important of which were the horses left by the pirates.
In addition to the dead and escaped, the other party left a total of thirty-two war horses, taking the horse market in Torrent Harbor as an example, the value of these war horses is nearly 10,000 gold coins - this is still the price sold between NPCs, and if players want to buy it, the price will have to be doubled several times.
The soldiers were accustomed to fighting, and without orders, they had quickly packed up the battlefield and continued on their way, and the patrolling guards looked as usual, laughing at the stupid pirates just now, as if they had experienced something very common.
By the window of a certain carriage, several beautiful faces flashed, and through the curtains, they looked curiously at the warriors outside.
"Did you see, those were the pirates who captured us!"
"yes, just killed?"
"I usually see these people silent, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful......"
"This can be regarded as revenge for us......"
“……”
There was silence in the carriage for a moment, but it wasn't long before a crisp knock sounded outside, and the six girls in the carriage were all stunned, followed by a small figure entering.
"Ah, Sister Mungo!"
As soon as they saw the little halfling, the six girls immediately jumped up and smiled happily, obviously, a few people have gotten along well with Mongo these days.
"The pirates are all dead, and it's all right." Mongo stepped in and crossed his waist at the girls.
Hearing Mungo say it himself, the girls could no longer hold back their excitement and couldn't help cheering, and two of them wept with joy, crying pear blossoms and rain.
There was a hint of sympathy in Mungo's eyes, these six girls were all slaves bought by unscrupulous merchants from other countries, and later captured by pirates, there were originally a dozen of them, and now only the six in front of them remained.
On the Continent of the Gods, in most cases, slaves are ancillary products of war, such as the rune dwarves of the year, such as the six peerless beauties in front of them.
The girls have no family left, and what happens to them is different, but the outcome is the same - the family or clan is slaughtered, leaving only these beautiful girls, and then sold to merchants to squeeze the last bit of value out of them.
Thinking of this, Mungo coughed lightly and said, "I came to tell you that there is a town more than forty miles ahead, and there is a temple of Tyre, and if you want to leave, we will entrust the knights of the temple to send you to the nearest city." ”
Tyr is the god of justice in the game, and the Tyr knights are the most righteous group of NPCs in the game.
The temples of Tyr are all over the Continent of the Gods, and the girls are the safest choice at the moment.
After Meng Ge finished speaking, he cast inquiring glances at a few people, girls, you look at me, I look at you, and there was silence for a while.
"Where can we go back?" One of them, a slightly smaller wind elf, muttered in a low voice.
This is also the common voice of several girls, the family is gone, the tribe is destroyed, where can I go back?
Meng Ge seemed to have expected this situation for a long time, and said with a smile: "Of course, you can also choose to stay, or even go back to Rune City in the future, you can always find some livelihood, you can choose yourself~"
With that, Mongo waved at the girls and left the carriage, and the girls gathered together to discuss.
“…… Rune City, I know, it's an ancient city, but the lord seems to be a dwarf, how did he become a human ranger? ”
"I know this, I couldn't sleep last night, and when it was convenient to get out of the car, I heard two guards chatting, it seems that this guy got Runeterone City back, and these orcs and dwarves respect him very much."
"I can see that...... It shouldn't be bad, otherwise how could they save us and take care of us so well? ”
"Do we have any other choice?"
