The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes

Vol 4 Chapter 719: Raiders in the dark

The early summer of 1924 in the divine calendar was a bit hotter than the same period in previous years. The clouds in the sky seemed to be playing hide-and-seek with everyone.

The cicada climbed out of the soil earlier and sang while drinking on the tree trunk. Its monotonous singing was disturbing.

There was no wind in the mountain, and some wilted leaves were hanging there motionless, looking like a photo.

The slimes that had lost weight by a circle smelled the blood. They came from all directions and threw their heads on the blood-splattered human corpse.

Not far away, the sweaty Alan sat under the shade of a tree to rest.

The streams in the mountains have bottomed out. If the snow last winter was heavier than usual, and there was no shortage of rain in spring, the streams in the mountains would have been completely cut off.

Alan under the tree looked slightly haggard, looking at the distant mountains and thinking about something.

When Allen recovered from his injury on the Dog's Head Mountain and returned to the Bischberg Kingdom by boat with Rogge, he found that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit wrong.

The people of the Adventurer's Guild still showed great welcome to him, but it was only superficial, and the worship of young heroes was no longer the same.

Allen found an adventurer who was rescued from the beasts of the year. The adventurer who lost a leg was very surprised when he found Allen waiting for him at home after returning home from get off work in the plastic slime bag factory. .

The one-legged adventurer invited Allen to a meaty dinner, and then cryptically told Allen to run.

Allen didn't take this warning to heart at first. When he killed the culprit of the beast tide in Onna City and made a public statement, he suddenly discovered that various sneak attacks and assassinations followed.

These attackers did not entangle with Aaron, and fled quickly after a miss.

Until today, Allen caught an assassin after setting an ambush with Rogue.

It's just that the assassin's confession made it difficult for Allen to accept.

Rogge flew over from the woods, holding a long cane in her hand, which was as thick as a ping-pong ball.

She handed the cane to Allen and said, "I only found this, so let's quench your thirst first."

"Thank you." After taking the cane, Allen took out the dagger around his waist and cut it off from the middle. With the help of Roger, he lifted the cane and drank the juice from the cut.

The sap of this rattan has a fragrance of plants and a slight bitter taste, which is a toxin that it evolved to prevent being eaten by insects.

This bit of toxicity is not worth mentioning to Allen. After replenishing the water, he felt a little more energetic.

Rogge threw the cane aside, then landed beside Allen, and said apologetically, "I really can't help you in this weather, I'll introduce Skadi to you after a while, she's the one from the ice. The weapon of the gun, she is the most comfortable in such weather."

Allen smiled and said, "it will be winter in a while, and it will be best to have you there."

Rogge glanced at the assassin's corpse covered with slimes not far away, and asked, "Did you find out who sent him?"

At this time, Allen's face turned cold and he said, "He said he is from Prato."

Roger asked, "Whose territory is that?"

Allen replied, "It's my sister Linda's territory."

"Huh?" Roger asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you have a good relationship with your sister, how could she..."

"Could someone be framing her?"

Alan didn't answer with a cold face.

Rogge said there: "You said your three brothers were competing with you for the throne, could it be them?"

Allen thought for a moment and said, "They must have sent someone, but there is no way they will frame Linda."

Rogge asked again, "Could it be the McGarden family?"

"It can only be him," Allen said.

It's just that before he could finish speaking, he immediately stretched out his hand to embrace Rogge who was beside him, and then jumped out.

Several bare tree trunks flew from the top of the mountain behind them, and the end of the trunk was still blowing with wind.

When the tree trunk was about to hit the ground, the magic circle above suddenly activated, and countless wind blades swept over the place where Allen and the others were just now.

The surrounding trees, soil and stones were chopped by the wind blades, and even the slimes that were eating were chopped into pieces.

When the dust settled, Alan jumped out of a dirt pit.

His body was covered with mud, and the clothes on his back were scratched, revealing a bruise on his back. The bruise disappeared quickly at the speed seen by the naked eye.

A burst of red starlight gathered around Aaron and formed Rogue.

Several arrows came from the bushes under the tree not far away. Allen swung his long sword and knocked one of them into the air. He found that it was an arrow with strong strength, and it was a crossbow arrow used to capture large monsters.

At this time, there were several tree trunks flying towards this side on another hill.

Several flaming arrows flew out from the nearby trees and hit the tree trunks flying from the sky, causing them to explode in the sky.

Those who shot the crossbow bolts immediately turned around and fled. Allen saw that one was chasing after him, and ended up crashing into an ambush circle.

Allen accidentally stepped on a trap, only to hear a screeching noise in the surrounding bushes. He didn't know how many javelins and stones cut out of wood were attacking him.

Allen saw Aaron's flaming sword in one hand and his own long sword in the other. The two swords were flying like the wings of a hummingbird, knocking down these rough things one by one.

All of a sudden, those attackers have escaped without a trace.

Soon after, Roger flew over, and she said, "Those at the top of the mountain have all escaped."

Allen said with a sullen face: "Those arrows are used by the army. This trap is in the style of a bandit. The ones that fly down from the sky can't tell where they come from."

Rogge thought for a moment and said, "It's very similar to the style of 'Wind Heart' Nield, but the two sisters, 'Wind Heart' and 'Water World', were broken more than 300 years ago. , I'm afraid it will never be recovered."

Then Rogge said solemnly: "It's not the way to go on like this~www.readwn.com~ You have to get rid of these troublesome enemies."

Allen looked north and said, "Let's go directly to Qiqiu City. I don't believe they dare to attack me in Qiqiu City."

Roger said, "Let's go then, I'll go wherever you go."

In the next few days, Allen got rid of the stalker in the old suspicious formation in the mountains, and then took a shortcut back to Qiqiucheng through the mountain trail.

The sky that had been exposed to the sun for many days finally started to rain. At noon on the day when Allen entered the city, there were lightning and thunder in the dark clouds in the sky. Soon after, raindrops the size of soybeans "crackled" to the ground.

The ubiquitous assassinations and attacks came to an abrupt end the moment Alan walked into the city of Seven Hills. The manipulators behind the scenes were not stupid. They played "someone pretending to be His Highness Aaron" and then threw him the cases where no culprits were caught. It's one thing to use this as an excuse to assassinate the prince, but it's another thing to go to the capital to assassinate the prince, that's a rebellion.

Alan, who entered the city, did not reveal his identity. He entered the city as an adventurer and walked straight towards the palace.

It's just that he wasn't far away when a carriage stopped beside him.

A flash of lightning flashed across, and Allen saw the coat of arms on the carriage with the light of lightning, but he had never seen this coat of arms. After thinking about it for a while, he could not think of anyone whose coat of arms was a sheep. of.
