A strange world

Chapter 1281 Section 203. Slave Knight

The team members realized that there was something wrong with the villagers, and Skeeter went around behind him and exchanged glances with Captain Ryan.

"Speaking of which, some traces of fighting in the village looked more like people fighting each other. At first I thought it was a fight between the militia and the servants of the dragon, and no bodies were found."

"I don't know... whether the dragon ate... ate them."

"He is quibbling."

Annan pointed at the "villagers" and quickly stepped sideways to hide behind Captain Ryan.

In fact, Annan had never seen him, and the slave traders had no strength to resist. As soon as he bumped into Skeeter while retreating, he collapsed to the ground and said everything.

He said he was just a small follower of the slave knight. They looted the village and took away the villagers and the spoils. I came back to try my luck because I didn't catch anyone, and then I ran into a holy knight...

"Slave Knight?"

The slave trader said tremblingly that the slave knight was the self-proclaimed name of the leader of a group of thieves, and it was not the first time he did this...

After all, where are there so many refugees? It is faster to directly rob villages and towns than to catch homeless people everywhere.

"Where are they?"

"To the camp, over there!" The slave trader pointed to the north.

"How long have they been walking?"

"Not long, at most an hour!"

The slave trader said that they all acted before dawn, when people were the most sleepy, and they were still confused when they were awakened, and they couldn't resist if they were put around the neck...

The members of the dragon slayer team kept the same silence. They knew each other's thoughts, but no one spoke first.

Annan took the initiative to speak, and said something that was indeed completely opposite: "It should still be in time to rescue people now."

"...Go over and take a look first, those captured villagers must know where the evil dragon is." Captain Ryan made a decision.

The dragon slayer team has five masters, four battle-hardened mercenaries, and Olmedo also has a lot of cards. They can challenge most of the forces in the Broken Mountains.

This excuse is reasonable, and no one objects - after all, after staying in the Osculus Mercenary Group for so long, everyone's views are almost the same.

Give the crying slave trader a horse and let him lead the way. They followed for twenty miles.

The wizard who cast the prophecy had a premonition that they were very close to the target.

"Stop." Vice Captain Skeeter said.

As a result, the slave trader squeezed the horse's belly and tried to speed up to escape.

Before the warhorse could speed up, the rope that appeared out of thin air tied him tightly, and he lost his balance and fell off the horse.

The ranger rode over, circled around, and said helplessly to his companion who caught up with him: "He fell on his head and died."

"What a unlucky guy."

Deputy Captain Skeeter shook his head and said to Luo Fei beside Annan: "The body is for you."

"Ordinary people's bodies...seem to be used while they are fresh." Luo Fei put away the still warm body of the slave trader unhappily, returned to Annan, and looked at him with bright eyes: "Brother Olmedo, I want a bigger magic ring..."

"Sorry, I don't have the habit of giving things to people."

"Your words are so cold..."

Captain Ryan watched Annan and Luo Fei interact with a smile on his face. Suddenly, he saw the nameless man raised his bow and shot a black arrow silently. Two seconds later, a silhouette fell on the tree about a hundred meters away.

The sentinel appeared, and the camp of the slave owner knight should be ahead.

They left the road and walked slowly through the forest where the leaves had fallen.

The sentinels hiding around were cleared away by the two rangers before they could find them.

They soon approached an open space with several tents erected.

Annan saw the villagers... They were like slaves, tied up and locked in iron cages. There were bursts of noisy sounds coming from those tents.

Men's laughter, women's screams, children's cries...

No one could stay calm under such hellish sounds. When Annan was about to say something, the largest tent was opened and a big man wearing a horn helmet and bone spurs on his armor walked out.

He stared at the silent woods, revealing two rows of grim teeth: "Rats in the forest, dare to kill my sentinels, why don't you dare to show up?"

Everyone looked at Captain Ryan at the same time.

Captain Ryan was in a dilemma.

Their purpose of coming was to defeat the evil dragon, get the bounty and the dragon's treasure, but ignoring it was not in line with his philosophy and the doctrine of the Paladin...

At this time, Captain Ryan's cold whisper rang in his ears.

"Destroy them, and I'll pay the bounty."

Captain Ryan and Annan hit it off.

The slave knight narrowed his eyes and looked at Captain Ryan, who was walking out of the woods slowly, wearing silver plate armor and holding a war hammer.

"Who are you?"

Captain Ryan didn't say anything and rushed towards the slave knight.

"Looking for death!"

The slave knight grabbed the battle axe brought by the servant and rushed forward. The two warriors, who were nearly two meters tall and also wearing heavy armor, collided with each other like giant beasts.

The loud noise caused by the collision resounded over the woods, and the air waves blew away the gravel and dead branches on the ground.

In the dust, Captain Ryan sank slightly, holding up the war hammer, and was at a disadvantage in the first collision.

The slave knight looked at Captain Ryan in an almost condescending manner, with a grim smile on his lips: "If this is all you can do... then die!"

The slave knight swung the axe in his hand suddenly, and launched a violent attack with a whistling sound.

Captain Ryan's body trembled under the bombardment of the axe, but his eyes became more determined.

"In the name of the Holy Light!"

Captain Ryan suddenly roared, and a dazzling holy light suddenly appeared on his body.

The attack of the slave knight lost its strength the moment it touched the pure and blazing light. He widened his eyes in astonishment.

"Damn, why is there a paladin here!?"

After a brief panic, the slave knight not only did not weaken his offensive, but became more crazy, waving the axe at Captain Ryan desperately.

He had heard of the paranoid knight of the Paladin, and no one could escape unless he was killed!

With the power of the Holy Light, Captain Ryan was able to fight the slave knight on equal terms, but a massacre was going on around him.

The slave knight's subordinates usually bully ordinary people and militiamen, but when they encounter real warriors, they will collapse at the first touch.

In the center of the battlefield, the slave knight once again swung the giant axe and smashed it hard at Captain Ryan, roaring: "Your gods are gone, how long can you last?"

Before he finished speaking, a black arrow shot into the gap between the knees of the slave knight's armor at a tricky angle, causing him to groan.

The holy light on Captain Ryan gradually disappeared, and he said to the slave knight who found that his men were almost dead or wounded:

"But the Paladin will never lack companions."
