Chapter 421: The Meaning of the Viper (I)
The cold wind is coming.
The knight in bright red armor looked up, pulled back his mask and looked ahead, where the shadow of the Reed Fort was clearly visible in the vast snowfield. Seeing the target in front of him, the red knight in front of him couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick his lips. A bloodthirsty rush of excitement welled up in his heart, making him feel like he was about to tremble with excitement. And at this moment, a voice sounded from his side.
"I really didn't expect that a group of mobs would actually work our chasseur team to go out in person."
Hearing this, the Scarlet Knight snorted, and then he turned his head to look at the archer who was walking leisurely beside him on horseback, with a large bow diagonally behind him. This man he knew, the other party was a retainer of Dogante, and one of the few people who could walk fat and rarely trusted. Although this guy usually looks like a fool, he knows very well how powerful the poisonous snake in front of him is, and it can even be said that he can be regarded as one of the strongest people in the entire Khalkaland region, and this time Dogante even sent him, obviously intending to completely eradicate those thugs.
Mob.
Thinking of those guys, the Scarlet Knight snorted coldly, it was not that he had never seen a mob, but it was the first time that he was bold enough to this extent, it seemed that he was indeed too relaxed for those homeless people before, which made them a lot more presumptuous. This time he had decided to peel off the skins of the thugs at the head of the city, and hang them outside, so that the stupid and lowly people could see what happened to them -- maybe he should broadcast in the square how he had torn off the skins of those guys?
The Scarlet Knight couldn't help but get excited at the thought of that wonderful scene, as the captain of the Chasseur team. He was used to killing -- no, I should say he was addicted to it. Torture the weak who are powerless to resist. For him has become a pleasure, in fact. It is rumored in the countryside that the scarlet knight's armor never changes color, as it is completely stained with blood.
"It's a thug, but it's not a mere thing, and Sir Setas must not agree with you."
"Setas is nothing but waste."
The other party obviously didn't think much of the Scarlet Knight's words, but the Scarlet Knight didn't care, this poisonous snake was a character with eyes above the top, and he didn't even look down on his own employer, let alone those thugs. Of course, Sir Setas was a real disgrace. As a nobleman, he would be killed by a group of rebellious mobs, which can be said to be the most shameful way to die.
"But these mobs do have some skills, and I don't know where they have the audacity to openly oppose the nobles......... Forget it, these are just small things, as long as we defeat these guys, then we can know who is behind them to agitate and instruct. ”
Saying this, the viper's eyes narrowed slightly.
"I don't believe the ordinary mob would have the audacity to go against us. There must be ghosts behind this, and we must not let go of those who dare to make waves behind us at this time. ”
"What's next?"
"According to the original plan, you go to take charge of the surrounding villages, since those guys dare to steal the supplies that originally belonged to the Soros family. Then they are also seen as rebellious. Kill them all, not a single one will be left, we will use blood and fire. Let those untouchables know how ignorant their resistance is! By the way, bring those filthy mercenaries. I don't think these money-conscious guys are any more reliable and optimistic about them. ”
"Yes. My lord. ”
Hearing the viper's command, the Scarlet Knight immediately bowed his head respectfully, and then he turned around, raised his right hand high, and made a gesture. Seeing his gesture, soon the herald sounded a horn, and then a group of cavalry and dozens of mercenaries walked out, and looking at the soldiers behind him, the scarlet knight showed a cruel smile on his face, and then he pulled down his mask and turned forward.
"Alright, bastard, it's time for us to go, target, Purple Flower Town!!"
The pitch-black crowd brought a shocking crack in the snowfield, like a poisonous snake, galloping away into the distance.
"They're leaving!!"
Standing on the city wall, watching everything that was happening in the snow field in the distance, Oldman only felt the blood in his body start to surge up, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. And at this moment, around him, many people also saw the actions of the chasseur team, and their faces changed. Of course they knew what those people were going to do, the notoriety of the Chasseurs was well-known throughout Khalkhaland, and no one would think that they went to Purple Flower Town just to have tea and chat with each other.
"Oldman, let's go save them!"
"Boss, hurry up and give an order, Purple Flower Town can't stop these guys!!"
Seeing this scene, many people hurriedly spoke, their faces pale and nervous. It's no wonder, after all, many of the people gathered here have family and friends in Purple Flower Town, and now, when they think of their families in danger, these people obviously can't stand idly by.
Others have a different opinion.
"Don't be kidding, it's a plain outside, do you think we can run as fast as cavalry? You must know that there are only twenty horses in the whole Reed Fort, and you are not cavalry, and you have not even learned to fight on horseback. If you go out like this, you'll definitely be killed by those guys. Shut up and stay here for me, and I'm not allowed to go out and die!" ”
Most of the people who said these words were veterans, who obviously knew more about what military life was like than ordinary civilians, so they hurriedly spoke at this moment. And hearing their shouting, the other people who were still shouting before were silent at this time, they are not fools, and naturally know how difficult it is. But even so, there was still an unwilling expression on their faces.
Seeing the expressions of his companions, Oldman's brow furrowed even tighter, and he thought for a moment, and finally opened his mouth to say something. And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"It's not surprising that you can't have the best of both worlds in this world."
As he spoke, Jenn walked over. He was now wearing a leather armor with a pitch-black cloak on the outside, and behind him, a bronze bow hung there.
"But there are some things that need to be done by others........."
"James, you ........."
Looking at Jenn, Oldman's eyes widened in surprise, and he opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say anything. Jenn smiled a little, and then he reached out and patted Oldman on the shoulder.
"Alright, Oldman, leave it to me. Those guys are nothing great, I promise we can handle them, reality matters, and we can't give up on ideals. Don't forget, what are we standing here for, and why we are raising the banner of rebellion against the nobles. ”
As he spoke, Jenn turned his head to look at the people around him, and then he raised his right hand in the air.
"I now need ten brave companions who can ride horses, who are not afraid of life and death, who wants to join, step forward!!"
"Count me in!!"
"Count me in too!!"
Hearing Jenn's words, the crowd quickly boiled, and then one after another, people came out of it, most of them young people, with high-spirited expressions on their faces. With a short sword or a longbow in his hand and leather armor, although cavalry was a rather difficult class to train in the army, among the civilians, the hunters were no strangers to horseback, so soon five or six hunters came out and stood in front of Jenn.
And then came out a few veterans.
"Don't think that only you young people have courage, although we are old, we are no worse than you!"
"Everybody..............."
Looking at the crowd in front of him, Oldman stood there dumbfounded, he wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't say anything. Looking at Oldman's expression, Jenn smiled slightly.
"Rest assured, Oldman, I promise there won't be any problems."
The gates opened.
The crowd on war horses rushed out, and under the leadership of Jenn, they galloped in the direction of Purple Flower Town. Oldman, on the other hand, stood above the gate, watching their backs as they departed, and then, with a vigorous wink, turned his head to look behind him.
"Close the gates! Be prepared, no matter what, we absolutely have to protect our homeland -- !! ”
Seeing this scene, Tilis, who was hidden in the shadows, tilted her head curiously, and then she closed her eyes.
Master, your acting skills are really superb.........
That's, how to say that I'm also the level of an Oscar actor.
Hearing Tillis's emotion through telepathic transmission, Jenn smiled, he grasped the reins, and rode on the galloping warhorse, the snow kept flying backwards under the effect of the horse's hooves, making them look as if they were flying across the water, with white trails.
Although they set out much slower than the rest of the hunters, they took advantage of the geographical advantage -- they were much faster than the hunters, so that it was only a matter of moments, and soon everyone, including Jenn, saw the figure in front of them on their left. There, the bright red, ugly flag of the Chasseurs was clearly visible.
"My lord, those mobs are coming!!"
"I really didn't expect them to be so bold."
The Scarlet Knight turned his head to look at the crowd in the distance, and there was a palpable cruelty and pleasure in his eyes. It's not that he didn't think that these people would very likely come out to die, but he didn't expect that they would really make such a choice -- sacrificing their own safety for the sake of a group of untouchables? These guys are really stupid, it seems that the Viper-sama's judgment is still very accurate.
Thinking of this, the Scarlet Knight sneered.
"Prepare to attack, I'm going to let these mobs know we're awesome!!" (To be continued......)
