Broad World

Chapter 411: Unlucky group of 3

Just when Henry and Viconia were indulging in indulgence, the hapless Byrne and two elite assassins finally walked out of the land of death full of monsters. This article is from  . . In the past few days, they have basically lived a life of drinking blood. If it were not for the strong will to survive, they would have died on the road long ago.

Now these three people are unkempt, almost like beggars on the side of the road. Not only do their leather armor and gowns are ragged, but even the boots under their feet are leaking toes. These people first met a few hungry trolls along the way, were chased for a day and night, and then ran into wolves. They did not lose their lives. It can be said that it is a miracle to get out alive.

An assassin observed the surroundings, then licked his chapped lips and whispered, "Damn, I finally escaped alive. My throat is about to smoke. It would be great if I had saliva."

"Don't worry, it will be there soon. Don't you see a faint light in the distance? I bet there must be a village there. We can not only eat and drink, but also ask for directions. "Another assassin comforted.

We must know that the land of death is a desert area, and there is no water at all. The reason why they can survive depends on drinking the blood of their prey. But everyone knows that blood doesn't taste very good first, and drinking too much will cause various adverse reactions. If it is not forced to do so, no one wants to touch it.

Looking at the expensive dresses that had been torn into one by one, Byrne couldn't help showing a wry smile on his face. He simply cleaned up the heads that were similar to the Bird's Nest and said to the two companions: "I think you'd better pray now. Once we are too far away from the city of El Toril, the mission may be overwhelmed."

"Don't worry, there is a reason for this failure. You know that there are not many people in this world who can fight against an adult dragon. At least we can't. The leader is reasonable. There will be no punishment."

"That's right. Then just find a place to take a break, and send the news as soon as possible. Anyway, so many days have passed, I'm afraid the whole plan has long been ruined."

The words of the two assassins relieved Byrne's hanging heart. What he fears most is that if the mission fails, he will be angered. When the time comes, his relatives will not be rescued but they will get in. But now is not the time to take it lightly. No one pays attention to the direction due to the rush to escape. God knows where it is. If one accidentally ran into the enemy-occupied area, it would be troublesome.

The three people, full of desire for food and clean water, accelerated their feet, and after a while they came to a small village that couldn't be smaller. More than a dozen houses are located sparsely on both sides of farmland. Not even the most basic fence. Several cattle used to plow the fields leisurely stay in the barn eating grass, and occasionally make a moo-moo.

"Great! I knew there must be a village here. Quickly, take out all the valuable things on you. You must know that these farmers don't welcome beggars. If they don't have money, they won't get anything." An assassin urged. Looking at other people, at the same time I was rummaging through them for something valuable.

Within a few minutes, he collected five or six gold coins, a dozen silver coins, and a sapphire brooch contributed by Byrne. These are almost all their belongings except weapons and armors. It is definitely not a problem to temporarily solve the problem of eating and lodging, but I am afraid that it is not enough to buy a horse to report the letter. Although gem brooches are very valuable. But in such a poor country, one-sixth of the original value will be sold for joy.

The hungry Byrne could no longer think about it so much. He immediately patted the door and shouted: "Hey! Is there anyone? We are passing travelers. I want to stay here for the night."

Soon there was a man's voice in the house, only to hear his mouth yelling: "Come on! Come on! Don't knock! Damn! This makes people not sleep!"

A few minutes later, a peasant wearing a coat with an oil lamp in one hand and a stick in the other opened the gate. He stared at a few people very vigilantly and asked, "Why are you so embarrassed? Did you encounter robbers? No, there was a large army passing by here some time ago, and the robbers had already run away."

"We did encounter robbers, but not here, but the place of death. Don't worry, we still have some money left, enough to pay for the house and meals. In addition, where exactly is this place? What's going on again?" Byrne frowned and asked.

He keenly noticed the large army mentioned by the farmer. It is necessary to know that in the Baldur's Gate area, there is currently the ability to mobilize troops on a large scale, except for Corey, I am afraid that there is only the Iron Throne. But Corey obviously couldn't cross the Chong Sa River easily, otherwise he wouldn't have to spend such a great deal of time to make any plan to entice the enemy to attack, just hit it directly. Obviously, all that is left is the Legion that the Iron Throne has just formed in the north.

Maybe it was because the three of them looked so miserable, maybe because the money handed over worked, the farmer finally put down his guard and waved his hand.

"Come in and take a bath, eat and talk. This year is an eventful autumn. It is the Iron Throne and the Son of Baal. The Sahua murloc robbers in the sea have also come to join in. Now there is a coup d'etat. I can't get through."

"Coup? Isn't this the land of the Silver Shield Principality? Is anyone trying to subvert the regime?" Byrne asked without knowing it. He knew very well that it must be the Iron Throne's army attacking the city, but in order to obtain more information, he just pretended not to know.

The farmer sighed slightly after pouring a bowl of water for everyone.

"Hey... Originally, Duke Anta Silver Shield was still a good ruler, and the tax was not high. Everyone could barely make a living. But after a battle with the murlocs at the beach, it was over. The army The loss was heavy, and I was seriously injured. Many careerists were ready to move and took the opportunity to control many towns. Although they did not declare independence, they usurped all their rights. Later, the Iron Throne sent a **** envoy, three in series and two in series. Some of them got together and finally formed an army. They not only captured the town everywhere, but also contacted the monsters in the mountains and forests. Now these guys are besieging Soba, wanting to completely eradicate the Silver Shield family. "

As the saying goes, play a full set. Byrne continued to pretend to be ignorant and asked: "Oh? Are these guys not afraid to attract revenge from the South? You know, Duke Henry is a nasty character. It is said that tens of thousands of monsters were killed by him. meter."

The farmer burst out laughing when he heard this sentence. "Hahahaha! I'm afraid! Of course I'm afraid! Duke Henry killed more than 10,000 Shahua murloc robbers during the Battle of Baldur's Gate. Who is not afraid. But these guys silently blocked the news. Now even a bird flies to the other side of the river."

"Can you talk about the army that is besieging Soba?" An assassin interjected. He urgently needs to get some useful information so that he can explain it even if the mission fails.

"No problem, but you have to pay for it. I think that sapphire brooch is good, just enough for the value of this information." Said the farmer's eyes with a greedy look.

He had already noticed that these people were probably spies from the south. At this time, if they didn't take the opportunity to strike a stroke, they would be fools. After all, the current year is not good. If you don't want to get some extra money, maybe you will drink the northwest wind next year.

Don't think that the country folks in the backward areas are so simple, in fact, they don't have a lot of fun. The rulers of China used a few years ago to sum up a sentence: Poor mountains and rivers lead to troublesome people. This sentence is actually very reasonable. The more poor and isolated the place is, the harder it is to manage. They fight against the sky and the earth, doing everything they can to survive.

The assassin turned his head and stared at Byrne, who nodded helplessly. Although he knew that this was extortion, but now he can only bear it. No way, who made the other party pinch his own weakness. Of course, they can also use force to coerce, but at that time, what they said out of their mouths was really hard to say. Know that there is no spellcaster among them, and there is no way to tell the truth from the false.

The farmer got what he wanted and smiled in every pore on his body. He carefully put the sapphire brooch into his underwear pocket, cleared his throat and said:

"Most of them are improvised human mercenaries and adventurers. The number is about three thousand. As for the number of monsters, there are more than two thousand orc tribes, over three hundred jackals, six Seven giants, a dozen ogres and trolls, and finally more than a thousand hobgoblins. In order to be able to control the scene, the Iron Throne sent the elites at the bottom of the box, they were wrapped in iron bumps from head to toe , Only a pair of eyes were revealed. There are not many people, only about four hundred."

"Damn! There are so many of them." The assassin cursed in a low voice, his face was full of worries~www.ltnovel.com~ He knew very well that this information should be sent out immediately, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Byrne seriously considered it for a few minutes, and suddenly his head flashed and made a very bold suggestion.

"Maybe we can consider breaking into the enemy! Think about it, the people on the Iron Throne still don't know the news of the failure of Operation Southern, and I still hang on as a special envoy, so I can easily get in. As for the two of you, one Go back and report immediately, and the other one will stay and cover for me. This way we can not only get first-hand information, but also do some small actions inside."

An assassin widened his eyes and asked, "Are you sure? If you accidentally be discovered, those guys might make you worse off."

"I've decided! The success or failure of life and death is here! We are all heroes if we succeed, and failure is just a life. In addition, give me the poison of your suicide, just in case."

When Byrne said this, his eyes flashed fiercely and madly. He knew that he would not have made such a big sacrifice in vain. Robert had to save his relatives no matter whether he succeeded or failed, otherwise the hearts of the entire guild would disperse. After all, rewards and punishments are clearly the bottom line that every organization needs to abide by. Once the rewards and rewards are out of proportion, they will soon fall apart.
