At this time, Kate asked from the side: "Mr. Patterson, I have a question. According to what we know, there is also a mercenary group in Pawnee City. Why not go to Pawnee City to find it again? Instead, go to New West.
Ting Gang?”
Patterson sighed and said: "The sword mercenary group led by Erte is the best mercenary group in Poni City. Even they can't deal with those man-eating lions. We need to find stronger mercenaries."
Group, the closest place is the New Westin Port.”
Steven asked: "Mr. Patterson, why did you ask me and Kate to come here?"
Patterson looked at Steven, then turned to look at Kate, and then said, "I just heard Mr. Huening say that you are warriors?"
He then pointed to the straight knife in the scabbard behind Steven's back and said: "You carry weapons with you, and they are long swords. Mr. Xiuning said that you also have hunting bows on your horses, so I can
Do you think you are not only travelers but also warriors?"
"You can think so, Mr. Patterson, do you want us to get involved in this matter?" Patterson sighed and said: "Yes, gentlemen! You also understand the situation, and we are now
There is a lack of people with force, so I have ordered the personnel stationed in all construction sections to be withdrawn to the base. However, in addition to the company's construction workers, there are also some immigrant farms in this area. As long as the man-eating lions are not cleared away, there will always be a threat to this area.
A threat to everyone in the area!"
"So what do you want us to do?" Kate asked.
"I definitely can't risk your lives to fight those lions! Two gentlemen, so I just need you to find the camp where the mercenary group and the lions encountered and see if there are any survivors! They were killed while camping at night.
Those mercenaries who were attacked by lions and sentry were unknowingly killed first! Then those beasts started a massacre in the camp! According to the workers, the mercenaries resisted the lions desperately, allowing them to carry the seriously injured Ai
Captain Walter escaped first, so to be precise, those mercenaries who resisted the lion still have hope of survival, although this hope is slim! But I can't just wait and do nothing!"
Steven and Kate looked at each other, and Steven said: "We will leave later! Mr. Patterson! Before we leave, we would like to talk to Mr. Elter, if it is convenient for him."
Patterson raised his eyebrows after hearing this, then smiled and said: "Thank you very much! Gentlemen! I will take you to the infirmary right now! He should be fine now! In addition, the company will hire the Elt Mercenary Group as per
The same fee will be used as your commission for this operation, please follow me!"
Patterson took the two of them downstairs to the infirmary at the end of the corridor. He knocked lightly on the door a few times. The person who opened the door was Dr. Mullen. He nodded to Patterson and then let the few people out.
Got in.
Captain Elt was lying on the bed against the wall of the infirmary. The cloth strips on his chest and arms had been replaced with white bandages. He was looking at the sky with his eyes open, his eyes completely unfocused.
Patterson led the two of them to the bed. Elt turned his head when he heard the sound, looked at Patterson and said with difficulty: "I lost my friends! Mr. Patterson, what should I do?"
!What do I say to their families?”
Patterson leaned over and said, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Elt! Your buddies held off those beasts! The workers survived. They are truly brave people!"
When Elt heard this, his expression improved a little, and he said again: "I should stay! Why do they want to bring me back?! Please let me move as soon as possible? I have to go back to find them.
!”
Patterson replied: "You can't move yet, Erte! You are seriously injured, but I have brought people who can help us get back to your partner! This is Mr. Lancelot, this
This is Mr. Hopson, they are both warriors! The two gentlemen have agreed to go to the place where the mercenary group and the lion met to find news about the members!"
When Elt heard this, hope ignited in his eyes. He excitedly wanted to sit up, but as soon as he lifted his body, several people quickly held him down. He coughed hard and gasped: "Thank you two.
Noble sir! We cannot repay this kindness! Mr. Lancelot and Mr. Hopson, please allow me to express the highest respect on behalf of the Sword Mercenary Group! I will use half of the hiring fee of our group as your reward.
A little reward for action!”
Steven said: "Mr. Patterson has already negotiated the remuneration with us, so we will not charge any fees from the mercenary group! Mr. Elt, we came here to find out what happened when you encountered the lion that night.
"
Patterson nodded and said: "Elter, you don't have to worry about the remuneration. The company has reached a contract with the two gentlemen! They are about to set off. Now you can tell the story of the lion encounter in as much detail as possible.
They tell it and these contents will serve as the basis for their action."
After hearing this, Elt nodded and did not continue to say thanks. Instead, he described to the two of them the situation of being attacked by a lion while camping at night.
The mercenary group has a set of standard operations when camping in the wild. First, they need to survey the terrain of the camp and try to avoid possible dangerous situations. Then they level the ground, build defensive fences and alarm traps, and arrange for at least two people to do so.
The mercenaries were on duty at night in shifts, and the mercenaries wore combat uniforms while sleeping and kept their weapons beside them, so that they could jump up and fight at any time if there was an alarm.
But the two members of their sentry group were still attacked!
Although the man-eating lion attacked the mercenaries on guard and killed them, it still triggered the alarm trap, which gave everyone in the camp a little time. Captain Erte took the lead in fighting a lion. According to Erte
He has no problem in dealing with ordinary prairie lions when he is fully armed. The long sword of the mercenary group is tough and sharp. The steel shield on his arm and the leather armor on his body can resist the lion's claws. Although Elt is not an elemental
A capable person, but as the leader of a mercenary group, his combat effectiveness is undoubtedly the highest.
However, Elt's arm was soon torn off during the battle with the man-eating lion, and the leather armor and muscles on his chest were torn apart by the lion's claws. At the critical moment, the members of the rushing group resisted desperately.
The lion that almost killed him carried him to the carriage and let the workers take him to escape first, while the rest of the mercenaries stayed to fend off the lions.
According to Elt's description, a total of three male lions attacked their camp. Those male lions were not like ordinary prairie male lions. Their necks were bare and they did not have hyenas, but their size was larger than that of the prairie males.
Lions are twice as big. Their limbs stand on the ground and their heads have reached the level of human shoulders. They are extremely strong, they can pounce extremely fast, and they have flexibility that is disproportionate to their body size. The most frightening thing is that they will
Launch some kind of invisible long-range attack!
The mercenary on duty at night was killed by this kind of long-range attack!
