Chapter 0294
After taking a sip of the canned stamina potion, Lorraine's mind was filled with the vigorous momentum of dragons roaring and tigers roaring, and his thin body burst out with a cry - it tastes so bad, and it is so powerful after drinking it. Who made this potion?
Seth himself drank it for the first time. He was also stimulated by the spicy taste of the potion and felt energetic, forgetting his superiority and inferiority. He put the jar away in his backpack, waved and shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, let's set off. When you see the owner, ask him
go."
The carriage left early, and more than thirty people were left on the road on foot. Everyone carried backpacks and divided into several teams to leave the warehouse. Seth finally left, looked back at the goods in the warehouse that could not be transported, gritted his teeth and threw a torch in
.
After the hiking team hit the road, they dispersed and were led by the captains of each team. They would disperse within a ten-kilometer radius and contact each other through the 'Holy Light' to ensure that they did not get lost. As soon as they walked out of the town, the flames of the warehouse rushed into the sky.
.
There were only five or six people in Lorraine's team. She looked back outside the town, and her heart was trembling. She knew that there was still a lot of food in the warehouse that could not be taken away, and she thought someone would stay to guard it, but she didn't expect it.
It's burned.
How can it be wasted like this?
Thinking that he had been desperate because of hunger, Lorraine was very puzzled by the behavior of burning food. But the captain who led the way came from Harmony Village, and he unconditionally followed the orders conveyed in the 'Holy Light', and only gave the order, 'Leave.
'.
The residents of the town were even more surprised when they watched Lorraine and others leave, and then saw the warehouse on fire. When someone looked at the fire scene and found that there was still food in the warehouse, they immediately shouted and shouted, and almost everyone in the town came to put out the fire and rescue the people.
At this time, Zhou Qingfeng appeared on the nearby hilltop. He looked at the flying flames and burning grain and grass from a distance, then turned his horse away with an expressionless expression.
The only panicked ones were the Powell brothers who were staring at the warehouse and saw Lorraine and others leaving on foot. They were still wondering if more people should follow them. But when the fire broke out, they rushed in like the residents of the town.
Watching the fire scene.
I originally thought that it would take at least half a month to transport the people and goods gathered in the warehouse, but I didn't expect that Zhou Qingfeng would be so decisive. He would rather suffer huge losses than simply leave without any involvement.
The warehouse was equipped with flammable materials in advance, and the flames were unstoppable. When the fire subsided, Little Powell rushed out of the city with dozens of people, and quickly chased the burning warehouse.
The leader of the team was Louis Fiers. When the quasi-city lord learned that all Zhou Qingfeng's men had left, he knew he could no longer hesitate and immediately chased them out with the newly formed 'Banshee' Knights.
Before we even got close to the town, we could see that the warehouse was already in flames from a distance. When the horses came closer, the heat wave forced the people to retreat.
Louis Fiers stared at Little Powell. Little Powell was in a hurry. He came and went in less than two hours, which was already very fast. He never expected that with such a small time difference, someone would actually set fire to the warehouse.
The brother left behind by Little Powell squeezed out from the crowd and stumbled forward to report the situation. He roughly explained that the people in the warehouse quickly left and finally set fire to the warehouse.
"Victor Hugo must have noticed something. His men left in a hurry. There was at least hundreds of gold coins worth of food in the warehouse, and they lit it on fire before they left."
One hundred gold coins were turned into ashes, which was nothing less than a super wasteful behavior for the extremely poor Northland. The members of the Knights who arrived were extremely stunned, and Louis Firth was also very angry - the enemy came and went as he pleased.
It was a great humiliation to him.
"Where did the opponent's troops go?"
"To the north, the last group of them didn't even have carriages and left on foot."
"How long will you be gone?"
"Two quarters of an hour at most."
"Chase!"
Louis Fiers gritted his teeth and uttered a word. Little Powell, who had failed to make any contribution, rushed out with a whip and spurred his horse. Dozens of knights followed up one by one, showing a strong attitude of not giving up until they achieved their goals.
.
Louis Fiers also understood that he had made a huge miscalculation. He could never figure out where exactly Victor Hugo was, so he allowed Seth and others to move around.
But now that Seth and others have run away, the possibility of catching Victor Hugo is zero. This cunningness makes people crazy, and Louis and others secretly vowed to catch all of Zhou Qingfeng's men.
Hack him to death to vent his hatred.
There is no reason why a fast horse can't catch up with a pedestrian on foot. But after chasing north for half an hour, not even a ghost was seen. There was only a cold wind on the road, and nothing could be seen.
But the target cannot disappear for no reason.
"Where did Victor Hugo's men go?" Louis Fels didn't need to think too much, and he understood that his opponent must have deviated from the northbound road and changed to a small road not long after leaving the town.
But the reason why a small road is a small road is that it must be difficult to walk. In this era when even maps are crude and abstract, if you want to walk on a small road, you must have a local guide to lead you.
There were undulating terrain on both sides of the road, and there were a lot of shelters near and far. Louis Fels looked around and couldn't guess where his opponent would be hiding? This would be troublesome to find.
Little Powell also woke up quickly. He rode a horse and led a dozen people to disperse in all directions. He ran for about an hour and looked at all the commanding heights within five kilometers of the surrounding area, but found nothing.
"It's impossible, those guys can't run very far." After listening to the report of his men with a sullen face, Louis Fiers had a bunch of thoughts popping up in his head, but none of them could explain the current situation.
Little Powell even chased for several kilometers along the main road, intending to catch up with the first carriage to leave. But those carriages also disappeared, which was too unreasonable.
The 'Banshee' Knights were established not long ago, and today was their first collective action. But this first time they went out, it was unfavorable, and they failed to catch a bunch of unarmed pariahs.
After wasting two or three hours like this, the wizard group from Banshee Castle followed up in a carriage. Old Bank, who led the group, thought that he was just here to make a splash, and there was no need to deal with a bunch of soldiers like him.
Legendary master.
However, when the wizard masters got out of the car one by one, the scene became very embarrassing. The rapidly advancing "Banshee" Knights did not catch the target, but wasted a lot of time in a confused and disorderly search.
Where the opponent will be is even more unknown.
"Don't worry, I'll look for it." After understanding the situation, Old Bank reassured everyone. He is known as the strongest wizard in the North. His specialty in the prophecy system is to reveal the truth. He only waved his staff lightly and cast nine-level spells——
'Retroactive vision'.
This is a big weapon in the prophecy system. The wizard can reveal what happened in the past by himself. As for how long ago this 'past' is, it depends on the wizard's ability.
Seth and others escaped only a few hours ago, and the gray-haired Bank easily caught their traces in the long river of time. A picture like a projection lit up in the air, showing everyone how his opponents escaped.
Among Seth's evacuation team, the carriage that set out early took the main road to the north, but soon left the main road and headed for the side road. As for Lorraine and other people who drank the stamina potion, they left the town on foot, but did not go north at all...
..
After Little Powell figured it out, he was so angry that he cursed: "Victor Hugo is really too cunning. All his men are like foxes."
