Chapter 328 Edward Scissorhands (3/5 Seeking the Moon)
Darkness shrouded a mountaintop in York Territory.
It was already late at night, but a group of people couldn't sleep.
It was a group of bandits with a maximum size of two hundred people.
Their boss was called Edward "Scissorhands" because one of his hands was severed from the wrist, and the executioner was said to be the Duke of York himself.
From then on, Edward's hands were replaced by a pair of sharp blades like scissors.
As for how he escaped, how he took over the hilltop and became a bandit, and why the Duke of York cut off his wrist, all this is another story condensed into one million words.
And now, Edward, who is frightened by the whole York Territory, has his new target - a group of people who are still strutting around in the middle of the night like a parade. They may have some physical and mental problems. They are freezing to death but don't wear clothes at night.
, goblins, and elves.
If so many people are caught and sold as hard work, then they are just like robbers!
"Chief! We have already conducted a reconnaissance. Although there are a lot of those guys, except for a knight wearing full armor, none of them has weapons on them!"
A subordinate who had not taken a shower for who knows how many days walked up to Edward and said excitedly to Edward:
"There are also hundreds of female elves and goblins among them. They are simply too good-looking to say the least. If you take them out, they will definitely sell for a lot of money!"
"I want to give everyone a refreshment before I sell it, and let them help everyone wash their clothes!"
Edward said to the robbers behind him. The robbers suddenly burst into cheers:
"That's great! Those girls have strong muscles, they can definitely clean the clothes!"
"Everything I have earned has been robbed from me. I want the most beautiful, strongest, and smelliest girls to help me wash my clothes. The clothes they wash so clean must be very clean!"
"Oh my god, why are you such a genius!"
The robbers all expressed their excitement, and Edward also had a happy smile on his face.
"Chief, look! They're coming out!"
The horse boy next to Edward excitedly pointed to the cave in the mountain not far ahead. People were constantly coming out of it, carrying some things.
Edward picked up the telescope in his hand and looked over.
"That's...that's a diamond mine?!"
Edward was astonished and stared at the things being carried in the hands of those people. The most conspicuous ones were the ores, not only the ores, but also the gold and silver that were later carried out.
"We are rich! We are rich! Chief! We are rich!"
Edward's horseboy shouted excitedly.
"Everyone is ready! Let's have a big fight!"
Edward waved his scissor hands and ordered to his men.
The robbers were extremely excited now. As soon as Edward gave the order to go down, they shouted and left.
Two hundred people against more than a thousand people seemed to be overestimating their capabilities, but those more than a thousand people did not have weapons and equipment, and according to Edward's experience, he did not even need to kill many of them. Just holding weapons, two hundred people
If you rush in front of them, they will kneel down and beg for mercy. Even if a fight breaks out, there will be no strong resistance. When more than a hundred good people are killed casually, these people will not resist when they see the dead people.
Willed.
When the time comes, let alone a thousand people, even ten thousand pigs will be captured obediently!
Even if something unexpected happens, don't be afraid. Edward is already sure that these people have no horses. Even if the situation is not right and everyone rides horses, can the two-legged ones still catch up with the four-legged ones?
The bandits roared and mounted their horses, and then rushed towards the more than a thousand people in the distance who were just like parading in the street at night...
——————
Lancelot stayed in the underground world for a while, and after checking that no one was nearby, he returned to the outside of the cave.
If Lancelot had some malicious speculations about Shylock and the Free City of Victoria before, then now, when Lancelot discovered that Shylock was actually on the front line against the evil forces, and the Free City of Victoria
It is completely different from other city-states or countries that are causing trouble.
His entire state of mind and consciousness have reached the same level as Shylock. For the love and peace of the world, this is what a knight should do!
Although the underground world is dangerous, after wandering around and finding nothing, Lancelot decided to return to the entrance of the cave because he knew that the York Territory was not peaceful. There was a group of powerful bandits wandering around York.
No one among the leaders knew where their base camp was, but the caravans passing by along the way were harassed terribly by them.
Lancelot also served as a guard knight and escorted some important missions through the York Territory. He knew how powerful those bandits and robbers were. Although he had never suffered a loss before, there were now more than a thousand human beings who did not have mission weapons and armor to defend themselves.
There are fairies and elves. Although there are some weapons and equipment in those supplies, many of the armors and equipment are on the small side. At least most humans can't wear them. At most, the fairies can wear them. As for the weapons,
Although you can make do with it, these are the property of the Free City of Victoria after all. Lancelot has just joined the Free City. Although Duchess Lilo has asked him to be responsible for supervision, he cannot decide to distribute weapons and equipment privately.
For these people.
After Lancelot passed through the portal connecting the two worlds and returned to the world on the ground, he immediately felt that the air was much fresher and his whole person became energetic.
Looking at the quiet darkness in the distance, Lancelot couldn't help but be a little optimistic. Although there was a little movement on the road, he must have provoked some ruthless character. Just as he was thinking this, he saw small pebbles trembling on the ground.
The rich experience made Lancelot's scalp numb all of a sudden.
He immediately lay down on the ground, then put his ear to the ground, and heard the rumbling sound coming from the ground, getting closer and closer.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! All pick up weapons! Get ready for battle!"
As a knight, escaping is never his first choice, not to mention there are so many supplies here. Unless these are all gone, where else can he escape?
In front of Lancelot, fighting is his first choice!
He shouted and ran, rushing directly into the underground world, and shouted to those who were still carrying:
"Take up arms! We are ready to fight!"
