Guard officer Andre staggered over. His left arm was broken at the elbow and was simply wrapped with gauze. This was the price for blocking Charlie's knife.
"More than 7,000 of our troops died in the battle. There are still more than 300 soldiers in the royal capital. There are only 13 officers in the correctional facility. I am the only one left as your bodyguard."
Andri paused after saying this, took a deep breath, and then reported with an expressionless face: "We killed more than 3,000 enemies and captured more than 2,000 people. We have used up all the magic crystal shells. The magic crystal shells in Hongyan Town have been used up."
There are even fewer crystal cannonballs than us, and they are all gone."
"Execute all prisoners." A hoarse voice came from Charlie's vocal cords, with a hint of determination.
"What?" Andri, who thought he had no feeling at all, suddenly opened his eyes wide. He couldn't believe his ears, which seemed to have heard an illusion.
"Kill the prisoners, all of them." Charlie slowly turned around and looked at Andri with his head slightly lowered.
Andri could see no trace of the old vitality in his eyes, only a dead silence.
"As ordered." Andri finally bent down slowly. "Your Majesty."
Soon, a burst of screams sounded, and then it became quiet...
North of the royal capital, there is a small desert village, Scorpion Village.
In a simple shop, there is a three-legged table, the other leg is made of stones, and an old bench can barely hold a seat.
In the innermost part, there is a stove made of sand, which is covered by a shed woven with withered yellow branches, barely keeping out the wind and rain.
In this small shop with very few travelers, there was a young man wearing fine scale armor sitting there. He had black hair and black eyes, and he placed the phoenix-winged duck on the table casually on his right side.
It was Qin Feng who came here to play, and he was the only one sitting here at this time.
"guest…"
"Your scorpion..."
A yellow sand-colored wooden plate was placed in front of the young man, with a scorpion that was completely transparent and had only a bright outline on it.
This is the famous "shadowless scorpion" here. It doesn't even have a shadow when illuminated by the sun. It is a special kind of small scorpion.
But it contains extremely poisonous substances in its body. As long as its scorpion tail is lightly pricked, an adult will be killed immediately, and the poison it possesses can easily kill ten people.
However, its meat is also famous for its delicious taste, and many people come here to find them, capture and breed them.
But due to their special nature, many people have failed, and some have lost their lives.
Now only local people can accurately find them, catch them, and make them into delicacies.
"Thank you."
Qin Feng took out a gold coin and put it on the table. This was the price of the "Shadowless Scorpion". Because of their various characteristics, especially their deliciousness, their price has always been high.
"You're welcome, guest."
"I found this one today. I wonder if the customer will need it tomorrow?"
The proprietress of the small shop smiled and looked at him a little shyly, with six white teeth slightly exposed from her lips.
Qin Feng turned his head and looked at the landlady's face, which was slightly darkened by the sun but full of youthful vitality. Instead, he had a sense of exotic beauty.
"It's not needed for the time being. I will go somewhere else tomorrow." Qin Feng said with a smile.
The landlady suddenly felt a little disappointed, but she still tried her best to smile and said: "Well, then you can eat slowly."
Qin Feng didn't think that the other party was attracted to him, it was just the natural shy expression of local women when meeting outsiders.
There were also some disappointed expressions after no business... Qin Feng returned his attention to the palm-sized "Shadowless Scorpion" in the center of the plate.
He picked up its scorpion tail with his right hand, raised it to the sky above his mouth, and then gently let go, and the entire "Shadowless Scorpion" immediately fell into Qin Feng's mouth.
Chew it hard, it's numb, spicy, sour, like fish that melts in your mouth, full of texture, and all the flavors are just right.
"This gold coin is really worth the money..."
Qin Feng closed his eyes, reminiscing with satisfaction, and a spicy and sour taste lingered in his nose for a long time.
At this time, a local dark-faced young man ran from a distance and ran into the shop very quickly. He was stunned when he saw a customer, but he was stunned for only a second and then ran towards the proprietress.
"Emma."
"A big shot is coming over later. Is there any food to entertain him?"
"I heard that you caught a 'Shadowless Scorpion' this morning. You must take it out!"
"My future bright destiny depends on you."
The local young man looked at the somewhat bewildered landlady with eager eyes.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" The young man immediately noticed her embarrassment and asked quickly.
She smiled reluctantly and put a gold coin in his hand.
"I'm sorry, Banner."
"Just replaced it with this."
The young man Banner stared blankly at the gold coins in his hand, curled his lips unhappily and said, "If this were in a big city, it would be at least 3 gold coins."
"That's okay, Emma."
"Then make the sand cakes that you are good at. The person coming later is really a big shot. He can do magic. You must make it well."
"besides…"
Banner came close to Emma's ear, covered it with his hand, and said in a low voice: "I think that man has finished eating. Let him go quickly. We can't leave the big shot without a place to sit. Do you understand?"
Emma looked embarrassed and shook her chin up and down slightly, "Okay... okay..."
At this time, Qin Feng's ears moved slightly and his eyes glanced at the young man.
Forget it, I won’t argue with you common people... Qin Feng stood up before the other party spoke first.
"It tastes very good, so I'll leave first."
Banner trotted over quickly, bent down, and looked at him with a smile on his face, "Please walk...walk slowly..."
When Qin Feng took two steps away from the table, Banner skillfully put away the wooden plate and wiped the table and chairs with a rag.
At this time, a group of people walked to the entrance of the small shop, where two sand mounds stood.
Qin Feng glanced at them and saw a total of eight people. Seven of them had scimitars on their waists and turbans on their heads. One of them, in addition to wearing a white robe and a turban, also held a half-meter-long yellow staff in his hand.
The mages of the Huangsha Sect? It seems that they have penetrated deep into their realm... Qin Feng thought.
When he came to the desert north of the city, Qin Feng had another purpose, which was to find out the address of the Huangsha Sect.
Since discovering the mages of the Huangsha Sect in the western border of Payas, Qin Feng asked spy Zhang Ming to pay more attention to their situation.
It is now generally understood that the base camp of the Huangsha Sect is in the desert. This is a well-known fact.
They are in opposition to the Quanshui Goddess Sect. I heard that the former Protectorate Sect of the Paya Kingdom was originally the Huangsha Sect, but later the people in power did not like it and supported the Quanshui Goddess Sect. The Huangsha Sect was suppressed, so that
Now it's in ruins.
Now they can only live in the vast desert in the north of the royal capital.
Recently, they had cooperated with Viscount Winster and often went to the Western Territory to plunder resources. However, seeing Viscount Winster's constant defeats, they decisively abandoned him and returned to the desert, waiting for the next opportunity to appear on the stage.
Qin Feng kept walking, staggering away from the Huangsha Sect group, and walked towards the outside of the village.
"According to the accounts of the two Huangsha Sects, you need to walk 50 miles north from here before you can see a dilapidated building complex, which is the headquarters of the Huangsha Sect." Qin Feng held his chin and recalled as he walked.
With.
"It's really far away. It will take a lot of energy to destroy them..." Qin Feng looked at the endless sand dunes in the distance. "No matter how much the cost is, we still have to destroy them. They are like terrorists. It's simply
everywhere."
"The mages of the Yellow Sand Sect have terrain bonuses in the desert, and their strength has improved a lot. If you send a large army there, they will run away, but if you send a small team there, they may be destroyed."
"Since I'm here, let's get rid of them by the way." Qin Feng's eyes flashed with light.
"Save...life, save...life..."
A shrill shout came from behind. Qin Feng's ears moved slightly and he instantly recognized the voice of the proprietress.
Something happened?... Qin Feng turned around and ran back immediately, leaving a series of phantoms behind him.
He arrived at the door of the shop without slowing down, and while he was still moving at high speed, he took in all the scenes at a glance.
Emma was pressed on the table by four people. The mage of the Huangsha Sect stood at the table and was about to untie her clothes. Banner was kneeling beside him, with two scimitars on his neck, and there were squirms on his face and eyes.
Xue looked at the scene in front of her with regret.
There was another person standing behind Banner, holding a wooden plate in his left hand and picking up the round sand cake inside with his right hand and about to put it into his mouth.
The next second, the Qi family sword at Qin Feng's waist was unsheathed, moved to the side of the eight people like lightning, and then slashed across their necks one after another.
When Qin Feng stopped moving, he suddenly appeared next to the small table.
With a sound of "Qiang...", the Qi family sword was sheathed.
All eight members of the Huangsha Sect fell down, and a large amount of blood flowed from their necks.
The two escaped the disaster and immediately hugged each other, enjoying the hard-won happiness.
Qin Feng turned around and left without making a sound. When they were looking for their benefactor, Qin Feng had already disappeared.
Originally, he didn't touch them in order not to scare the snake, but...hehe... Qin Feng shook his head and thought of a famous saying, if you don't seek death, you won't die...
The guards ran over not far away. Qin Feng took the reins, mounted the horse, and ordered: "50 miles, one day, arrive tonight and destroy them."
"yes."
The group of people ran quickly, facing the wind and sand, and after a day's march, around 7 o'clock in the evening, they happened to see a damaged building complex with countless tents dotted inside.
This is the headquarters of the Huangsha Sect.
"Come in..."
Qin Feng took out his long bow, attached four enchanted arrows, and shot them into the four larger tents.
Amidst the four balls of fire, a large number of believers with burning bodies rushed out. They screamed miserably and were reduced to ashes in less than two seconds.
The generals and guards immediately rushed into the damaged buildings. If they encountered believers from afar, they would kill them with bows and arrows, and if they came close, they would swipe their bodies with the Qi family knife.
Once the mages of the Yellow Sand Sect appear, Qin Feng will shoot enchanted arrows at them. One shot will destroy their sand shield, and the remaining flames and fragments will kill them instantly.
