Straight Knife

Chapter 36 Departure

When Ruohan said this, everyone understood and began to think about deeper issues.

From the perspective of the boss alone, this possibility still exists.But why does the Lauder family care so much about the artifact and the person who discovered it?

The only possibility is that they are the owners of the artifact.The artifact has been in the hands of the wolf army for a long time, and it has been wandering outside for an even longer time. There must be some unknown secrets.

No one wants the secret of the only sharp weapon in their hands to be known by others, and the owner of the artifact does not know how long the artifact has been in the hands of the wolf army, let alone who held the artifact before. The only task in the mission is to retrieve the artifact, not to find the former owner. If you want to know, you have to get it from the wolf army.

The members of the wolf army are all young, and they may not be able to find anything from the artifact, but the Lauder family is concerned about who has handled and studied the artifact during the more than 100 years of wandering outside.

It is estimated that the road will not be smooth and smooth. The members of the Lauder family will definitely try their best to find out what secrets the wolf army knows and whether it will pose a threat to themselves. If possible, it is normal to kill the danger in the infancy of.

This explains why the members of the Lauder family hired two teams to transport them with such high skill.People from this family, plus a mid-level mercenary team, plus the bandits who accidentally met and wanted to rob goods, it is still possible to wipe out a first-level adventure team.

As for why this time was chosen, it is probably because the Lauder family still wants to give face to the Chim and Norton families in the empire, and they dare not involve Aisha and Chuck, so they chose this place where neither of them can go. critical moments.In this way, even if something happens to the wolf army, the two young nobles can be preserved, and it will not cause any irritation to the officials of the Tianlong Empire.

Therefore, everyone must be extremely careful in this task and not be careless.After all, this is the first official task of the wolf army in the adventurer's guild, and the signboard of the wolf army cannot be smashed.

After reminding everyone and asking them to pack their bags, Wang Feng went to Qim's to ask about the fire-type forbidden curse mage and said goodbye.

Hearing that Wang Feng was leaving, Qim also felt a little bit reluctant.I didn't get along with this young man for a long time, but I hit it off very well.However, even the court mages of the empire cannot prevent others from carrying out normal adventure activities, so he enthusiastically told Wang Feng about the fire mages, and wrote a letter to the master himself, asking Wang Feng to take it with him. .With his name, that mage should also give him some face.

Saying goodbye to Qim, and also saying goodbye to Aisha Chuck one by one. Although the two wanted to go, the current situation forced them to stay.

Back at the garrison, the wolf army and the new elf archers were all well-trained, and the things for departure had been packed, and they were waiting to set off early tomorrow morning.Linda and Ruohan respectively led two different teams and explained some issues that need attention.

Seeing Wang Feng looking over, both of them were silent and nodded heavily. It seemed that they had discussed all the considerations in the meeting with the team members.Reminding everyone to pay attention to safety, everyone agreed with a bang.

Back in his room, he meditated quietly all night.

Early in the morning, Wang Feng led the team to the gate of the inner city to wait for Duo Pu.

After going out, I found that the military habits of my team members were too heavy.The early dragoons were alright, they had been with Wang Feng for so long, and they were also used to this seemingly lazy but effective defensive formation he invented, a few of them casually stood aside, seemingly vulnerable, but In fact, it takes into account all directions.

The archers selected by Norton were meticulous. They were arranged in neat formations, with uniform equipment and consistent movements, making them look extraordinary.Wang Feng couldn't help frowning, and called Linda over to give some instructions, and Linda went to communicate with those elves.

People who come out of the army are a little bit good, obey orders, Linda went over to give a few orders, and the twenty elves immediately disrupted the formation and became sparse.Even the expression on his face and the way he looks at people are much gentler.However, when his eyes drifted to Wang Feng's side, he was obviously puzzled and disdainful.

The other wolf soldiers around laughed secretly when they saw the eyes of the elves. After all, they had only spent a short time with the boss, and they didn't know how powerful the boss was, so they even doubted the boss's decision.

Dopp's people are not slow in their movements, and they can be seen to be experienced. The arrangement and packaging of the goods are very appropriate, and they are just right for the vehicles to be transported, and there will be no shaking or falling.At the same time, the package is very tight, even if it is outside the package, you cannot detect what is inside by touching it with your hands.

Strictly speaking, the owner of the cargo cannot conceal the cargo from the person in charge of protection.This is a prerequisite for the Adventurer's Guild to accept the quest.But people with a discerning eye don't need to think about it now, these goods that no outsiders have seen are definitely very different from the goods entrusted by this mission.

Another mercenary group also arrived.Although this mercenary group is not a particularly high-level mercenary group in Tiancheng, it is currently a high-level mercenary group with more than 25 people at level 50.Most of the members are warriors, but there are two magicians.The name of the mercenary group is "Hot Blood".

For the wolf army, the passionate people obviously didn't pay attention.The hot-blooded regiment leader, a tall and strong human warrior, didn't care about Wang Feng and the others next to him. He directly greeted Duo Pu and began to assign people.

Judging from the appearance of these people, if they didn't hide it too well, they didn't have any particularly intimate relationship with Duo Pu and the others, but it was more like the relationship between a real caravan and a mercenary group.Wang Feng didn't speak, but his heart was active. It seems that further observation is needed to determine whether Dopp is playing tricks this time, but be careful, there is still a way to go, we will wait and see.

The hot-blooded man bossing around made the new elf archers in the wolf army resentful, but the other team members who had been with Wang Feng for a while didn't react at all, and they all sat there leisurely.Ruohan even laughed and said, "That's great, someone is willing to work hard on his own, saving us a lot of work." Several members of the wolf army around nodded their heads.

Dopp watched from the sidelines, secretly delighted.Originally, the wolf army suddenly had a group of elf archers, which caught him off guard and did not know the details.But now it seems that they are not very harmonious with the members of the wolf army who already have information, at least they are inconsistent in their actions.It shows that there are still uncoordinated factors within the wolf army, which will affect the overall strength of the wolf army, and it will be relatively easy to control if something happens. .

Immediately quietly ordered the staff to check the details of these archers, and at the same time called Wang Feng and the passionate head together to introduce each other.

The hot-blooded team leader's name is Otto, a [-]th-level warrior, nearly middle-aged, but still powerful.

Facing Wang Feng, with disdain on his face, he said loudly: "We are fully capable of this task with enthusiasm, so you don't need to worry about it. Don't think that you can get back the magic weapon, and you think it's great. In this business , or rely on strength to speak, not luck."

Turning his head to look at Duo Pu, he felt that he should give him some face, and looked at the young appearance of the wolf army around him. He couldn't bear it, and he himself was young, so he continued: "We are responsible for exploring the road. Eliminate the thieves, you are responsible for protecting the owner and the goods, you are inexperienced, stay in the team, don't run out, it may be safer. Remember, follow my command on the road, don't act indiscriminately, and you can survive if you encounter problems. Longer ones." Looking around again, he turned around and left to arrange his own personnel.

It seems that this person is not too bad.However, Wang Feng can understand that ordinary mercenary regiments must have gone through countless hardships to receive missions in Tiancheng, while the Wolf Army obtained the privilege of this Adventurer's Guild simply by recovering the artifact. It's too big. It is estimated that all the mercenary groups in Tiancheng have opinions on this.

For this mission, there must be one person as the general commander. Although Wang Feng has commanded the team to charge and kill the enemy more often, it is the first time to protect the caravan. It seems that Ott has done it many times and has rich experience. Let him follow his arrangements. alright.You can also learn from the side how to deal with such teams and tasks in the future.Since he jumped out by himself, Wang Feng didn't object, just follow his orders.And his arrangement is largely to take care of the wolf army.

I explained a few words to my team members, and did not disappoint Ott's kindness. I arranged for my archers to stand guard outside the cargo and cargo owners. There were warriors outside. After setting the basic formation, I waited for Ott to command and set off.

The hot-blooded people arranged at the front and back, and sent a few people to go to the front station to set off first, and then came to Dorpo to arrange their caravan.

The people Dopp sent to investigate the archers also came back and brought back some information.

This time, Duo Pu's task is very difficult, not only to bring back some important things, but also to bring back the members of the wolf army. If necessary, he must be prepared to solve it by force, so he brought a few good hands.

The wolf army's information must be checked thoroughly, so that we can deal with it with confidence.Although there is no requirement from above to deal with the wolf army, it is good to make some preparations and plan ahead.

Because of the relationship between Aisha and Chuck, even if they want to do it, they have to be outside the territory of the empire, so as not to anger the Tianlong Empire.It's really troublesome, are these first-level adventurers worthy of the family to do this?

But he did all his calculations, and still missed the special relationship between the wolf army and the imperial army, and he didn't even know that these elves were the elite archers of the special army of the empire.Of course, such secret affairs are not necessarily known to even slightly lower-level direct military personnel, let alone just a big family in business.

It's normal to forget about the relationship with the military, but what's more terrible is that the Lauder family doesn't know the details of Harlem and others.The people sent to investigate only found out from the information of the Adventurers Guild that they were all first-level adventurers, which was directly reflected on the above, and did not conduct in-depth investigations at all. Therefore, in the information of the Lauder family, Harlem and others Just a level [-] samurai adventurer.

All the goods are pulled by load-bearing beasts that are much slower than horses. This kind of monster has an amazing load-bearing capacity and a good temper. After domestication, it can take on the task of transporting goods. Don't be afraid. Apart from walking slowly, there are no other shortcomings.

The people of the wolf army were distributed around the cargo, which contained ten large bags, so everyone was also spread out.Wang Feng and Ruohan Linda walked in the front.

After the departure, everyone was very relaxed. After all, this place is still within the scope of Tiancheng. Apart from the army, there is no bandit group or organization that dares to rob goods here.

I didn't walk much distance in a day, mainly because the beast of burden walked too slowly.Without a magician, you can't practice on the road, which is very boring. Fortunately, there are many places for passionate people to go, and it's not very interesting to talk about what you've seen and heard while walking.

I just took a break on the road at noon, and I didn't camp until evening.

After setting up the camp, Wang Feng arranged for the old members of the wolf army to serve as guards, and called out the newly arrived elf archers, followed by Bai Xue, Linda and Ruohan.

Some distance away from the camp, there is a small forest next to it.After listening carefully to the surroundings, there was no movement. Linda and Ruohan were asked to watch from a distance, and after arranging everything, he began to speak to the elf archers.

These archers are all outstanding officers in the army. With many years of military career, they have been promoted to their current positions. They are suddenly asked to come from the army to this little-known mercenary group. They are not very acceptable.

Although they came here with the purpose of learning, seeing the age and lazy style of everyone in the wolf army, these archers were a little bit disapproving.Looking at the appearance of those young men today, it seems that they still want to teach their team of fast-trained elves a lesson.If you don't want to learn something from here, you won't be polite to them.

Wang Feng didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "I know you don't take the order in the morning seriously, but you have carried out the order very seriously, which is very good, as expected of being well-trained."

Hearing this, all the elves felt that it was very useful, and they worked hard to raise their chests and look even more extraordinary.

"However, all of you don't understand that order, and I know it too. I believe you can all guess why we use such a loose formation to give everyone a sloppy appearance. In order not to expose us easily The real strength of our team." Wang Feng continued.

"I told everyone when we set off that this mission may be very dangerous, so it is very necessary to retain appropriate strength. However, the real reason for adopting that formation is not because we want to preserve strength. It’s about increasing our chances of survival.” As soon as these words came out, all the elves showed puzzled expressions, but they still didn’t say a word after years of training. .

Wang Feng smiled and said, "I know you don't believe me, but we can try it out."

The method of the experiment is very simple, that is, the elves are walking through the woods, and Baixue is attacking in the woods. The elves can use any method, whether it is to maintain the formation or break through individually, as long as they can safely pass through this small forest. .

The forest is not big, but it is not small, and it takes tea time for normal traffic, enough for Baixue to harass in it.

The elves were very excited, but also a little angry.Twenty elf archers, a team composed of the most elite archers in the empire, can pass through this forest in the shortest time under any circumstances.What Wang Feng did was obviously extremely contemptuous of them.They also pent up their energy and geared up, preparing to give Wang Feng and the entire wolf army a blow in this test.

Linda's side is, Ruohan's side is the end point, as long as they can reach Ruohan's place without any damage, it means that the formation of the elves is correct, if not, then the future training must be completely obeyed.

Ruohan in the distance heard the content of the test, secretly stuck out his tongue, jokingly, passed through the woods unscathed under Bai Xue's attack, and he may not be able to do it after being mad.You have to maintain the formation, what kind of formation is useful for Baixue, the archers are having fun.But since they dare to doubt the boss's decision, they should be taught a lesson.

After all, these elves are his own clan, and they are also his current subordinates, so Linda is still very enthusiastic to remind everyone to be careful.For this beautiful family member, the elf archers still recognized it, and they all nodded to express their understanding.

The speed of the elves is still impressive. Although they didn't practice lightness kung fu specially like Linda's, they were still much faster than ordinary people. In the blink of an eye, twenty elves disappeared into the woods.Bai Xue also quietly blended into the woods.

Wang Feng gestured to Linda from a distance, telling her to be careful, and walked slowly to Ruohan's place.The elves haven't come out yet.

This is normal, if these elves come out, it is not normal.Although Wang Feng paced very slowly, it took at least several times the normal walking time to reach Ruohan, but none of the elves saw it.

Just now when I was walking slowly, I heard the voices in the woods.Bai Xue still has a sense of proportion, she just "harassed" them very slightly, nothing major would happen.

After another long time, a few figures of elves appeared on the edge of the forest, but all of them were dressed in rags, as if they had rolled in the thorn bushes.Bai Xue also appeared suddenly, came to Wang Feng's side, and lay down quietly.

When all the elves came out, they didn't have the same gaze when they looked at Wang Feng.

Wang Feng looked at all the elves who had been robbed, and said: "In the army, or the enemy will not attack when they see such an imposing team, but in the case of a small number of troops, the methods to save their lives must be exhaustive. , Always be careful. Although our team is very loose, they are not doing nothing, and all actions have a purpose."

After the test just now, the elves seem to be enlightened when they are obedient.Now they also understand why the wolf army always has a few people to leave, and they have to talk backwards with their teammates before leaving. They themselves dismiss them. Now that they think about it, they should take the opportunity to observe and guard the rear .

Strike while the iron is hot, Wang Feng then ordered: "You follow the formation of other teammates today, pay more attention, and try again." Back to the woods.

Wang Feng took Ruohan to Linda's side.Waiting for the elves to appear again.

The time this time is much shorter than last time. Although the reappearing elves have more traces of being ravaged, the morale is still very high. Personnel defense.However, this kind of cooperation is obviously not proficient, and Bai Xue has been harassed all over the place.But it was much better than last time.

Everyone prepared their own bags, and asked the elves to change the clothes that were torn by Bai Xue, and just said to them: "Your cooperation is not very proficient, and you will communicate with other team members in the future. The power of cooperation is also limited. When a monster like Bai Xue gets close, you will have nothing to do. Well, today's training ends here, let's go back to the camp."

This time the elves agreed without hesitation.

Back at the camp, Wang Feng asked everyone to rest, and went to discuss the future with Ott by himself.

The elves looked very depressed when they passed by this time.Seeing their appearance, a member of the wolf army stationed said to one of the elves: "I was bullied by Bai Xue! I feel very shameless! It doesn't matter, there are so many people in the wolf army, except for the boss, who has never been bullied by Bai Xue, slow down Take it slow and get used to it.”

The elves were very strange, surrounded him and asked, "Have you also been taught by Bai Xue?"

"Hehe, we paid more attention to our formation and momentum than you did. As a result, after being harassed by the boss for a few days, everyone gradually got used to the current state. In fact, it is quite good now, and we cooperate with each other more Proficiency, a person only needs to pay attention to one direction, and he doesn’t have to worry about his surroundings, his comrades are in charge of other directions, and both attack and defense are more effective, compared to the time when he just focused on neatness and majesty, his combat effectiveness is much greater.” The member then enlightens.

"Also, if you want to pay attention to aura, who can compare to Ruohan? You have never seen Ruohan's aura in the beast town alone, so that the monsters on the periphery of the beast town dare not move. , three people walked through the group of monsters, as if walking in the back garden, that is the real momentum." The member said enviously.

Except for Linda and Ruohan, none of these team members had seen the time when Wang Feng showed his power, but they had all seen Ruohan's performance. Apart from being envious of Ruohan, they all admired the boss.Everyone knows that everyone in the wolf army can achieve their current achievements because they are inseparable from the boss.

Linda came over at this time and said to the elves: "Hurry up and rest, we will be on duty in the second half of the night, and we have to hurry tomorrow." Everyone agreed in unison.Linda went on to say: "Starting tomorrow, the archers will cooperate with everyone on the march to cooperate in defense, and they will practice some simple ways of exerting force and learn new archery techniques."

This is the ultimate purpose of the elves, and everyone cooperated very well and followed the instructions.

Wang Feng also discussed future matters with Ott.The big aspect has not changed, the wolf army is still responsible for protecting the owner and the goods, while the hot blood pays attention to the surrounding vigilance and meets the enemy.But at night the wolf army will take part in the rotation.

Duo Pu has no objection to this arrangement, so that he can better monitor the people of the wolf army, and can better observe them under his own eyelids. How much do you know about artifacts?

For the wolf army, this arrangement can have more time for their own training and running-in, so that the wolf army has a stronger combat effectiveness.Although the hot-blooded people are in charge of the periphery, the wolf army will also provide support when necessary.

Because the load beast moves slowly, this journey will take a lot of time.It also means that Dopp can have more time to observe and understand the wolf army, thieves on the road have more time to covet these items, and the wolf army has more time to improve their abilities.

It is estimated that this road will not be peaceful, but after all, the first day has been passed safely, and what should come will always come.
