Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 220 219. Lone Shadows - Seventeen Sons
"Woo much easier to deal with than imagined."

Lan En dropped the mace in his hand, moved his wrist and whispered.

He had thought it was at least a Gregor Clegane-level opponent.Although it is not difficult, at least you have to deal with a few tricks.

But the body of a top fighter is easy to deal with if it is only controlled by a child-like spirit.

Lan En suspected that if he threw a candy on the ground, he would kneel down and pick it up.

The large troops behind followed, and Kotaro moved aside the Taro soldiers who were drooling on the ground.

After crossing the bridge, there are two arrow towers built on both sides of the bridge.

If it wasn't for the archers among the bandits who were eager to plunder, but stuck to it, it would be really difficult for Lan En to bring people over directly.

But this also further proves the destructive power of traitors.

These two arrow towers did not play any role in the bandit's intrusion.

"Take someone to guard, I don't want us to be scanned again later."

Lan En grabbed a short arched light shoulder and let him go up the arrow tower.At this bridgehead, he left a reasonable number of people and arrangements according to the shooting angle and melee defense considerations.

If it was just an ordinary bandit, then it is estimated that hundreds of people are unlikely to rush over.

On the high ground of Hirata Manor, two ninjas in purple and black striped costumes are overlooking the growing fire of Hirata Manor.

A ninja in the same attire as them jumped up suddenly from below with the [light body technique], and half-kneeled behind them, obviously lower.

"My lord, the ashigaru and ronin of Hirataso Castle Town have organized a counterattack, and now they have cleared [-]% of the bandits entrenched there. Those troops are advancing towards the main house."

"Oh?" A solitary shadow crowd who was watching the fire turned around. "Didn't that owl promise us that the distribution of troops he arranged has no possibility of regrouping at all?"

"Hmph, it's just a country ninja. Right now, how well can you expect him to do things well?"

"That's true. But it doesn't matter." Gu Yingzhong, who was called 'Zhengjiu', shook his head. "Those mountain thieves are just garbage to be discarded, so we just wanted to be quick and didn't clean up the places that have already been breached."

"So, Masaru. If you want to destroy the Hirata Clan, you just need to kill the only remaining young master Hirata, and nothing else matters. The retainers who failed to protect the master and let him die at the hands of bandits, Wei Who in the name will trust them? Without our hands, they will die sooner or later."

"But didn't that owl say that young master Hirata must be captured alive?"

Zheng just asked the companion beside him, in exchange for an indifferent chuckle.

"He said? He took refuge in the inner government. How can we let the ninjas in the country negotiate with us? Well, I won't say much. These bandits die casually, but I like the man Zhongzang. Go and remind him to withdraw as soon as he is done."

Just nodded slightly.

"I remember, he called you 'Brother Zheng'? You really know me. Then I will bring people and make trouble for this group of warriors who have gathered again. Don't wait until you come back. Young Master Hirata hasn't found it, but Get caught up by them."

"Very well, let's get to work then."

As soon as the words fell to the ground, the figures of Gu Yingzhong rose up suddenly like a black eagle blending into the night, and then fell down.

Lan En was leading a group of people to continue towards the inner house, and they crossed another bridge on the way.

It has to make people feel the precipitous terrain of Weiming Country. Even though the manor has been built on a place as flat as possible, the split terrain and water flow still require various means to connect the terrain.

When Lan En led the team forward, he took the time to look down, and he found that there were actually that kind of big carp in the small tributary of Longquan River.

If he passes this pass tonight, he will definitely come back and look for these 'jewelry suppliers'.

The armor and weapons on a group of people and horses rattled and rattled as they ran.

The gate of the inner house was already in sight, and Lan En didn't hear any movement at the front, but there was a sudden terrified cry from the queue behind him.

"Dead! There are enemies!"

The yelling caused a small commotion, and the team's progress stopped.

Lan En frowned and walked back, seeing a limp body with limp feet.

On his unprotected neck, a sharp iron pick similar to the size of a sweater needle was piercing his neck, and blood flowed out from the wound.

Lan En had seen this kind of throwing object in "Gu Ying Zhong Ninjutsu Moves Book", and its name was 'Thousands'.The slender and sharp shape is not only difficult to be observed during the flight, but even the wind noise is almost inaudible.

In other words, it is the lonely shadow crowd!

"It's a ninja! A round formation! Those with wooden signs stand outside and raise their shields!"

Lan En calmly ordered, and everyone who had experienced his perfect command immediately followed suit subconsciously.

And just when the wooden board soldiers had just set up their formation, there were three consecutive 'dong dong dong'.

The three iron sticks were directly stuck to the wooden sign.Judging from the point of fall, if one step is late, at least three more people will fall.

Lan En's eyes narrowed slightly.

He hadn't heard or smelled it just now.Just looking at the opponent's silence and breath holding technique, the proficiency is not at the same level as the guy who was hunted down by wolves!
Suddenly, Lan En thought of the gossip revealed in "Gu Ying Zhong Ninja Skills Book".

"Gu Yingzhong is the most trusted ninja group in the Inner Palace. The leader Oribe Masatsuna has seventeen adopted sons, all of whom are outstanding in skills."

One of the Seventeen Sons?
"Little Taro."

"My lord, I'm listening!"

Standing in the middle of the circle, Lan En's height and soft silver hair made him stand out from the crowd.

He didn't try to dodge at all, and the other party didn't seem to want to attack him easily.

"A ninja alone can only delay time here. Maybe their plan is coming to an end, or he may have invested new troops behind us. But we can't just watch him complete his plan."

Those dimly lit cat eyes scanned the bamboo forest and the shadows among the houses under the dim moonlight and firelight.

"I will go out directly. It is impossible for him to ignore my influence. He will follow. And now you need to go back to the arrow tower just now to prepare for the enemies that may come from behind. Got it?"

Lan En stared seriously at the short man who had just lost his mother.

His shy and funny face suddenly changed, and his cheeks clenched and puffed up.

It seemed that he was already very excited to be entrusted with the task by Lan En.

"My lord, we will repel the enemy!"

"Then do it."

Lan En stroked back the scattered silver hair on his forehead, pushed aside the foot light in front of him who maintained a circular formation, and walked out.

Sure enough, the ninja didn't attack the ordinary soldiers again.

More than half of the combat power of this small corps was concentrated on Lan En alone. If such a huge variable was not to interfere with the mission, then the ninja had to stop the lonely demon hunter.

As for ordinary soldiers, they are not a problem at all in comparison.
