The early morning sun dispelled the darkness in the forest, and also took away the worries that lingered in everyone's minds.

After the battle last night, everyone was busy clearing the battlefield, and at the same time, they had to be on guard for the enemy to return in a swirl of dust, so most of them did not continue to sleep.

At this moment, after the sun came out, everyone was finally relaxed, and some really tired and sleepy began to sleep.

Part of the mercenaries began to prepare breakfast, and the leader Saru was still arguing with the businessman Oliver about the casualty pension.

Actually, the two parties had already agreed on the standard of compensation before they set off. The reason for the quarrel now is entirely because of an unlucky person who was killed by his own man.

Oliver insisted that this guy is the responsibility of Firefox Mercenaries and that he should not pay the pension, so he quarreled with Saru.

Colin now a matter of no concern to oneself hangs high, squatting beside a fire, drinking the "water" in the kettle leisurely.

The rising sun was a bit dazzling, and Colin lowered the brim of his hat a bit, almost completely covering the upper half of his face.

After that, he took out the parchment and crossed out the sentence [Human blood can help advance] that he wrote yesterday.

Because he discovered that the blood secretly obtained from a thief’s corpse last night had no effect on his strength growth. It was just like deer blood. In addition to satisfying the appetite and replenishing energy, it was completely It doesn't have the effect of Knight Carter's blood.

Maybe the blood of an ordinary person has no effect, it must be the blood of a professional to help advance.

Furthermore, I am afraid it needs the blood of a higher-level professional to be effective.

Thinking of this, Colin unconsciously turned his gaze to the only Rank 2 warrior here, the head of Saru.

He then shook his head again.

Let’s not say if I can beat Saru.

Even if he can fight, he doesn't want to kill an innocent person in order to quickly advance.

Colin feels he still has some bottom line.

While thinking about it, Colin realized that the dispute between Oliver and Saru had finally ended.

The chubby businessman was walking towards Colin, his expression a little unhappy, as if he did not have the upper hand in the argument just now.

"That's a tough guy!" After approaching, Oliver glanced at Saru's silhouette and complained to Colin.

Colin looked at the businessman who was still proud of the ten thousand zhang yesterday and said that he wanted to sponsor his army, but now he has become a must-have because of a mercenary's pension, and suddenly he laughed a little.

"Forget it, just take comfort, after all, there is still a long section of the road to go from Falling Eagle City. At this time, it is not a wise choice to have a fight with Firefox Mercenaries."

"I know. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't give in to the Old Guy of Saru!" Oliver obviously understood this, but he was still unwilling and whispered a few words.

"Would you like to taste the jerky I brought, it is much better than bread." Then the fat businessman became generous again.

Colin smiled and accepted Oliver's kindness, and chatted with him casually.

After everyone finished their breakfast and rested for another two hours, the caravan put away the tent and prepared to set off again.

At this moment, Saru suddenly stopped everyone, and then he lay on the ground and pressed his right ear to the ground.

Seeing this, Colin frowned slightly.

His hearing during the day is far less than at night, and he has not heard any unusual movement at all at this time.

And Saru over there suddenly jumped up from the ground, hissed and roared: "Horse! Horseshoes! Quick! Everyone, immediately alert!"

Follow With Saru's roar, the entire camp suddenly became a mess.

Oliver's face turned pale instantly.

He knows the seriousness of the matter.

This is different from last night’s attack. The band of thieves can’t raise horses. If the people here are enemies and not friends, I’m afraid it will be very troublesome...

"Tatata..."

With the passage of time, Colin finally heard the rapid sound of horseshoes.

The ground began to vibrate slightly, which made the mercenaries in the line even more flustered, even the roar of the bearded Saru could no longer calm them down.

Colin squinted and saw a thin gray line suddenly appeared in the forest not far away, like a sharp arrow rushing towards the camp.

This is a team of cavalry!

The number of cavalry is not much, only about twenty.

But looking at their imposing manner, Colin has no doubt that as long as the opponent charges, the Defensive Array that Firefox Mercenaries tried to put together will immediately collapse.

This is the oppression force of the King of War in the Cold Weapon Age!

hong long long!

The earth is roaring.

The cavalry is approaching.

The mercenaries are shaking.

Oliver closed his eyes in pain.

Saru stands at the forefront of the defense line with a huge bust shield, like a rock.

Colin also ignored the dazzling sunlight, sighed helplessly, lifted the three-cornered hat, and drew the one-handed sword from his waist.

Just as everyone was preparing to fight to the death, the surging cavalry squad suddenly stopped about 30 meters away from the camp.

"Hoo--"

Amidst a series of horses chirping, twenty war horses stood in the air.

Good equestrianism!

Colin couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart.

At the same time, his tense mood slightly relaxed.

The opponent should not be an enemy anymore.

However, looking at their rushing posture without slowing down, and the dazzling emergency stop at the end, obviously, they want to give Firefox Mercenaries a blow.

So, the other party may not necessarily have much kindness.

Oliver, a shrewd businessman, obviously saw this, and he didn't take the initiative to step forward, but signaled Saru to negotiate.

Saru is helpless, after all, he is receiving a commission and is obligated to solve any troubles encountered by Oliver along the way.

So, he had to put down his half-length shield and big sword, and yelled out at the same time:

"The friend opposite! I am Saru, the head of Firefox Mercenaries, and I am escorting him. Some of the goods from the Tulip Chamber of Commerce went to Falling Eagle City. I don’t know if I can help you?"

The cavalry squad on the opposite side did not respond, as if suddenly became sculptures.

The forest was silent, the wind seemed to stop suddenly, and the air was so suffocating.

Saru suppressed the fear and anxiety in his heart, and brace oneself continued to move forward.

Taking a few steps closer, he finally saw the badge on the chest armor of the leading cavalryman, and he was surprised to suck in a breath of cold air: "Your Excellency is the Knight of the Saint Hild family?"

Saru's loud voice also spread to the rear, so a small depressive commotion broke out among the mercenaries.

But at the same time, everyone involuntarily hung their weapons to the ground, as if the name "Saint Hild" has terrifying magic power that people dare not fight against.

Yes.

In the north of the empire, the name Saint Hild is a symbol of absolute authority.

Even the Imperial Family does not have such a terrifying appeal and influence here.

"clang when."

The Knight headed by finally made a move. He lifted his helmet and mask, revealing a pair of indifferent eyes, facing Saru nodded, and acquiescing himself. identity of.

After that, he took out a roll of parchment from the cloth bag in front of the saddle and threw it at Saru’s feet. At the same time, he announced in an unquestionable tone:

"Son of Duke Saint Hild, By the order of Marquis Charles, you have been urgently called up."
