Mercenaries and Adventurers

Chapter 343, Surrounding the lumberyard battle

Sensing that Kiel was a little confused, the baron heir explained in a low voice: "You are from the north, right? I don't know what it is like over there, but in our southern province, if you want to intervene in various government affairs locally, you must be Relatives of lords everywhere, do you understand?”

He added: "Not even close friends or comrades-in-arms, they must be related by blood or spouse. Otherwise, a lord will delegate the territorial power he obtained from the local noble assembly to a 'stranger' Woolen cloth?"

Only then did Keir realize what the so-called real 'benefits' of the other party were. By marrying the eldest daughter of the local baron's sister, she would officially become a member of the local Sass family, and thus gain the possibility of involving in power.

It sounds a bit false, but Keir knows that it only sounds like this, after all, this is how society works. After obtaining the so-called relative status of a Sass family, he becomes one of the other party's own, and the power structure of Yemei Town and the surrounding villages will be opened to him.

The benefits can be understood by thinking about it with your heels. There must be many and all aspects.

But Kiel is a foreigner, and he does not consider long-term settlement and development in the local area. He is really not interested in these benefits.

From this, he waved his hand: "Ah haha, after all, I am here to help fight the war. I will leave after the fight. It is unlikely that I will join your family."

"Really, that's really a pity." Bell responded softly with an incomprehensible expression.

He turned to ask: "So, excluding marrying my cousin, you choose the shop or the money stored in the provincial capital? Which one do you want?"

"Ah? Don't you give them all to me?"

The surprise in Kil's words was not fake, which made Bell roll his eyes: "You have a really big appetite. Have mercy on me. I don't have much property. Of course, if you are willing to let me draft a If you give me an IOU, I can use my family's income in the next two years to subsidize you. But now I can't give you any real benefits."

When Keir saw that the other party had even proposed paying an IOU for free prostitution, he quickly said: "Then I need a deposit in the provincial capital. I will have to meet Baron Kendall and the others there later, so it will be more convenient. After all, even if you gave the shops in Yemei Town to me, I won’t be able to take care of them after I leave the southern province. I’ll have to sell them for money, so it’s better to just take a sum of money.”

After listening to Kiel's last muttering, the heir to the baron immediately condensed his words: "Then it's settled, I'll give you a large deposit in the provincial capital's treasury in exchange for your all-out battle. Remember, Knight Kiel , since I paid for you to take action, please fight with all your strength."

Patting the iron armor on his chest, Kil said with certainty: "Don't worry, no matter how many parasitic monsters are ambushed in the lumberyard today, I will deal with them for you. But similarly, you cannot rely on me alone to fight, you and your men The soldiers and the invited priests also have to fight together."

"You don't need to tell me, I will lead people to destroy the monsters."

-

After the discussion, the lumberyard in the west of Yemei Town happened to be right in front of us. The hot spring sun was in the sky, and the entire lumberyard was just like what Keir said, it was eerily quiet.

On the corpses beside the dirt road where the convoy was driving, those red-eyed crows that pecked at the broken human corpses were not afraid of people and vehicles at all. Even if the distance between the wheels was less than two meters, these cunning and noisy birds of large size still stayed on the corpses to feast on them. .

At most, he could raise his head, yell twice at the provocation of the convoy, and stare at the group of humans.

They don't fly, they don't run, they don't fear, and they even communicate with each other. They keep making noisy and unpleasant calls, seeming to welcome humans like Keir and others to kill more parasitic monsters and provide the crows with more food.

In comparison, there were many parasitic monsters that had been killed in the log pile of the lumberyard, but it was extremely quiet there, and not a single unnecessary sound was heard.

There is no chirping of insects or birds.

Of course, this was the direct view of Kiel and the Baron heir after they knew in advance that there were parasitic monsters lurking here. Others in the convoy did not feel this way. They even felt that the attack on the parasitic monsters in the morning made them scared and they did not dare to return. Provoke the convoy.

That's what most people think.

"Stop the convoy!"

Bell now became the one giving orders to the entire convoy. With his order, the entire convoy stopped quickly and did not continue to approach the lumberyard. When the carriages stopped, some of Kiel's lumberjacks immediately wanted to jump out of the car to work. When Kiel saw it, he immediately stopped them: "Everyone get back in the car! Go back!"

The lumberjacks looked at each other, not knowing what Knight Kiel meant, but they didn't want to listen. You pulled me and climbed back into the carriage.

The elite soldiers of the Sass family asked their master, but Bell waved his hand to stop their questioning.

The two looked at each other and Bell said, "Do you have a suggestion?"

Kiel immediately said: "Let the vehicles that are incapable of fighting move back two hundred meters, and the vehicles carrying priests and soldiers form a separate convoy. In this way, how about going around the entire lumberyard and fighting while moving? You can use this convoy Command the battle, and I will draw out the ambushing monsters, use the mobility of our horses and vehicles, and lead these monsters that move on legs and feet to fight in circles?"

Bell thought for a while and made an opinion: "The convoy without combat capability is still too close. If you move back another two hundred meters, you can clearly see it from this distance. Even if you ride a war horse, you can rush over in time, and the monsters will run over and attack." , it will take a lot of time.”

"Okay, you leave the convoy, I'll go up and lure the monsters out of the ambush!"

After saying that, Kil made the blood-licking grass run, running straight towards the various piles of logs outside the lumberyard. Bell loudly ordered the team to divide into two teams as previously discussed.

In fact, there is no need for Kir to seduce monsters. Those parasitic monsters can understand human common language. When Bell shouted that the convoy was divided into two parts, these parasitic monsters who were ambushing knew that their ambush plan failed, although they did not know how. of.

In just an instant, there were roars one after another on the pile of logs that had been silent.

This is not the lingua franca of mankind, nor is it the roar of a beast that only contains emotions, but an unknown and strange language. Keir listened, and although he couldn't understand it, he could easily hear the quarrel in it.

"Ha! A bunch of idiots. Their ambush has been discovered long ago, and they're still hiding it now?"

Kil taunted loudly, and immediately summoned a counterattack from the monsters who were ridiculed in front of them - some small and large pieces of firewood were immediately thrown over from behind the pile of logs.

Since the parasitic monsters were quite strong, the size and speed of the thrown wooden blocks were not bad. Kil quickly pulled the reins to make the blood-licking grass move away. Being hit by these wooden blocks is not a big problem. I can't say that I was injured, but I am definitely in pain and discomfort.

When the monsters saw that they missed the human on horseback who was taunting them, they immediately roared and divided into two groups. One group with a small number of people rushed out of the pile of logs and separated to surround Kiel. The larger ones organized themselves into a team under the command of a parasitic monster holding a sword, and swarmed towards Bell's convoy.

"Be careful! They are coming!" Kil was chased by monsters and shouted to the baron heir.

Bell snorted coldly, responded to Keir, and then shouted: "Run, let the team run to the right! Everyone is ready to fight, and the drivers should follow the car in front."

Later, after the convoy gradually bypassed the oncoming monster team, he said to his trusted driver who was the lead vehicle: "Don't be nervous, find an easy route, let's circle around this lumberyard, and take a walk first Stupid monster with a head full of vines.”

The driver was nervous and sweating profusely, but he still drove the carriage carefully, avoiding seemingly inconspicuous pits and small mounds in the fields outside the logging camp. Under his leadership, the entire convoy gradually increased its speed and swung away. The parasitic monsters chasing behind the convoy.

"Priests! This is your chance to show off your skills! Please take action to deal with as many of these monsters as possible, no matter how you use them!"

Bell stood in the driver's seat, turned around and held the bumpy carriage carriage with one hand, and shouted to the priests of Yemei Town on the vehicle behind him.

The reactions from the four churches of different faiths were all different. The two from the Church of the Sun God were in a bit of a dilemma. Of course the church had prayer spells used in combat, and they both knew some, but they were not suitable for use near the lumberyard. Or used to deal with flesh demon parasitic monsters that obviously have plant characteristics.

The opponent is not immune to the strong light, but the high fever is also afraid of someone accidentally igniting the pile of logs not far away, especially now that it is being used on a bumpy carriage. The carriage carrying the two people was constantly moving, and the target monsters were also moving after the moving convoy. With each movement, it was hard to say whether the pile of logs would be ignited.

This put the two priests in a dilemma, so they had to hold priest's staffs each and pool their strength to get closer to the battle.

The four priests of the Church of Saturn shouted and ordered the carriage they were in to slow down first and fall to the end of the convoy. Then they accelerated one by one to catch up and scattered crop seeds with the power of the Saturn into the convoy. On the horses that pull the cart and on the driver.

"Seeds bring fullness, and fullness brings strength!"

The soldiers were also sprinkled with some crop seeds by the Saturnine priests who were riding in carriages. They immediately felt that their physical strength had been greatly improved, their morale was high, and they shouted provocatively at the monsters that were chasing after them.

The two priests of the God of Wealth smiled disdainfully and threw a few special coins full of divine power at the soldiers and the baron heir without running back and forth in the carriage they were riding in.

These special coins that emitted golden light flew over the heads of everyone in the convoy, and their divine power turned into light and covered them downwards. Immediately, everyone's courage and fighting will were strengthened, and some soldiers even temporarily mastered one or two fighting skills.

The heir to the Baron, who was a trainee knight, narrowed his eyes and felt that it was easier to mobilize and drive the life energy in his body.

This surprised him a little, and he frequently looked at the two priests of the God of Wealth.

Among all the priests, only the two church priests of the God of the Dead did not move. The two priests who had massacred everyone before were just standing in the empty compartment of the carriage, counting the number of parasitic monsters, and discussing in a low voice.

Seeing that these two people were inactive, Bell couldn't say anything. He just hoped that the Church of the God of the Dead, which usually rarely interfered in territorial affairs, could put more effort into it.

"Soldiers, prepare to fight! Be careful of monsters jumping onto the vehicle, and be careful of being pulled off by the monster! Also, protect the carriage and driver you are riding in!" Bell shouted loudly, because in just a moment, the entire convoy had already circled around. I ran around the entire lumberyard.

Although most of the parasitic monsters chased behind the convoy under the urging of a certain leading monster, there were still many parasitic monsters who were either smart or lazy and disobeyed orders. land.

No, the convoy that circled around happened to hit them head-on!

"ha!"

At the head of the convoy, the heir to the Baron, Bell Sasse, drew out his heavy axe, holding it with one hand in his right hand, and holding on to the back of the seat behind him with his left hand to keep his body steady. Facing some parasitic monsters who finally recovered from their surprise, he shouted to his trusted driver: "Left to the left——"

At the same time, he lowered his right hand and swept across, just as the entire carriage shifted to the left, he used a heavy ax to cut off the two parasitic monsters in the chest.

Cutting these monsters with a heavy ax is like cutting some vegetables. If you swing it, the monster will be broken into two pieces.

But there was another monster that was farthest away and jumped on the carriage.

This guy had a broken hand, and a large number of vines replaced the palm of the monster's parasitic human body. They sprouted from the broken forearm. As the carriages passed by, they grabbed the carriage and jumped up.

"Hahahaha, die, human!"

The guy laughed, not at all sad that his companion was cut off, and directly waved the vine right hand that replaced the palm, like a rolled whip, whipping the baron heir who was wrapped in knight armor in front of him.

But Bell just let go of the carriage with his left hand, stretched out his hand to grab, and took the initiative to grab the vine tentacles thrown by the opponent. He took the initiative to pull the monster before it could pull hard, and first took the monster who was still talking nonsense. Pulled over.

"Hahahaha, huh?"

The strength of this human being was far beyond its imagination, and its entire body was pulled over before its feet could stand firmly. What greeted it was the heavy steel ax slashing diagonally.

With a pop, the monster was divided into two parts diagonally upward from the abdomen.

Not caring about the core of the monster in detail, Bell flicked his hand and threw half of the parasitic monster's body with its right arm out of the carriage. He also swung the ax to fish out the other half and threw it out of the carriage.

Seeing all this, the driver who was driving the car was very excited and shouted: "Sir, you are so powerful! You defeated three of them in one go!"

Bell laughed and glanced at the fighting of other people on the carriage behind him. After realizing that there was no problem, he continued to deal with the parasitic monsters that were crisscrossing him.

On other carriages, the fighting was also going on sporadically.

The soldiers chanted slogans and lay on both sides of the carriage. They were not afraid at all when facing the parasitic monsters jumping up from outside the carriage. No matter how the monster jumped up, they would beat these disgusting guys down.

While fighting, he would also swing his sword to cut off the hands, feet, and necks of these monsters covered in human skin. Every time they deal with one, they will shout in unison, and it will be very lively for a while.

The elite soldiers who were brave and capable even allowed the monster to jump on the car. After sending one person to protect the driver, the others swarmed up and opened the way with their axes, chopping the parasitic monster that jumped on the car into a pulp.

The carriage carrying the priests of the Church of Saturn turned left and right, taking the initiative to fight against the scattered parasitic monsters. The four Saturnine priests held long metal staffs and shouted at the parasitic monster with the heavy staff heads.

If it hits the head, the head will be crushed by the speed of the carriage. If it hits the hands and feet, the hands and feet will be broken in the same way.

Then the carriage drove away, and they threw crop seeds at the parasitic monster that had lost its arms and legs. They shouted the name of the God of Agriculture, causing the thrown crop seeds to grow rapidly on the parasitic monster's body.

Submerge parasitic monsters that are unable to move within the confines of a small patch of rapidly growing crops.

The parasitic monster, which was not completely dead yet, screamed in anger.
