Chapter 87 Sneak Attack
When Calcifer called out someone, Romo had already held the sword in his hand.
Seeing the sword coming, Luo Mo drew out the Blood Fang Dagger with his backhand and aimed at the flying arrow to slash it.
The arrow that was originally speeding froze for a moment, and then fell to the ground.
However, before he could catch his breath, there were several more sounds piercing the air.
This time, arrows shot towards Luo Mo from three directions, and the speed was faster than the arrow just now.
'Is this, ambushed?
The effect of the potion was not over yet. He raised the blood fang and blocked it a few times. The long arrows he shot suddenly fell to the ground again .
Immediately afterwards, he clasped the Soul-Splitting Sword with his left hand and silently recited the incantation:
[Void Guard]
Suddenly, several tentacles from the Shadow Void appeared out of thin air around Lomo and were firmly planted on the ground.
At this moment, Luo Mo seemed to have opened his eyes and immediately felt the enemies around him.
There are people ambushing in front, on the left and on the right, a total of fourteen people.
"Huh? Void Guard?"
A voice sounded in the dense forest ahead, chuckling: "As expected of Lord Sardin, he has such a deep grasp of shadow magic. He is indeed an all-rounder. Brothers, come out. Well, there is no point in hiding anymore."
There was only a sound of 'hu la la', and more than a dozen people came out from the left and front, blocking the white deer's path.
These dozen people were all wearing leather armor and cloaks, and had a variety of weapons in their hands.
Luo Mo did a rough count and found that there were five or six people holding magic weapons.
A man took a step forward and asked in a deep voice: "Lord Sardin. The red man in the Volo Valley reserve camp, the Ice Knight, the alchemy genius who is chasing Olipold, the gnoll slayer, and the youngest in the valley. Law Knight, is that you?"
Luo Mo looked at the man in front of him, wearing a black animal costume made of crow feathers, with a black cloak on his head, only a pair of eyes exposed.
Judging from the oppressive power he exudes, he should be the leader of the people here.
Romo didn't expect that he had so many names in the Volo Valley. He smiled slightly and said, "It's me. Who are you? Are you here to seek revenge?" "No injustice, no enmity." The leader shook his head
. He shook his head and said, "We are entrusted to ask you something."
"What is it?" Luo Mo asked in a deep voice.
"When you were searching Baron Lando's manor, did you pick up a transaction list from the North?" the leader said softly.
When Luo Mo heard this question, his heart suddenly trembled.
That list records the transactions of food, iron and cloth with a mysterious force in the north.
Among them, the sky-high price of grain transactions shows that the transaction is extremely unusual. Romo had suspected that they were trading with the fel orcs.
Now seeing these people mobilize forces like this, Luo Mo's guess is even more confirmed.
"No." Luo Mo simply shook his head.
The leader chuckled and said, "Lord Sardin, why bother pretending to be stupid? You are indeed a smart man, but don't treat others as fools." "
No means no," Lomo said again.
The leader stared at Luo Mo for a long time and said: "It doesn't matter whether you have it or not. Today we showed up rudely. We have two purposes. The first purpose is to test your strength. The second one The purpose is to invite you to participate in this business."
"What business?" Luo Mo asked.
"Business in the North! You know it." The leader smiled and said: "Your manor has been booming in the past two years. According to our observation, most of the fields have been opened up to grow food in recent days. Since you are so keen on growing food, it is just right. Cooperate with us and we can sell your food at sky-high prices."
"Who are you referring to?" Luo Mo asked.
"Inquiring too much will not do you any good." The leader kept smiling and said: "No matter what, you will cooperate with us." "Why? Are you so sure that I will
cooperate with you?" "
Because we caught you The handle."
The leader shrugged and smiled, pointing at Calcif sitting on the white deer with the staff in his hand.
"The lady next to you is a demonized woman, right? If I report this matter to the city hall and the kingdom, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand the wrath of the kingdom council." "Speaking of which, Lord Sardin, you You are so courageous that you dare to keep a demonized woman by your side. Tsk tsk. He is indeed a young lord with strong blood. He will not care about anything for the sake of a beautiful woman." Luo Mo immediately narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "
You Why do you think she is a demonized woman?"
"If it weren't for the interaction between this lady and the white deer, I really wouldn't be sure." The leader smiled and said, "Except for demonized people, no one can compete with demonized beasts. Communicate."
Luo Mo felt a chill in his heart when he heard this. He knew so little about demonized women that he didn't even know there was such a thing.
Now that he was exposed, Luo Mo stopped quibbling and asked in a deep voice: "So, you are actually monitoring me in some special way. After discovering that the woman next to me is a demonized woman, you can't wait to threaten me?"
The leader did not answer, but had a knowing smile on his face. The people behind also laughed along with the leader.
These people looked at Lomo and the deer behind him with greedy expressions on their faces.
Luo Mo immediately understood that although these people were sent by a certain force to monitor him.
This kind of surveillance should happen after you leave the oak forest. Because during the battle, Luo Mo had applied developing eye drops and carefully explored the surrounding environment.
However, after they caught their handle and saw their gains, they were not willing to just monitor.
There are more than twenty living demonized beasts, and the corpses of more than a dozen demonized beasts are worth no less than thousands of gold coins.
This is a big fortune.
The employer would never give that much money. So they immediately decided to intercept Hu here and seize the demonized beast first.
Anyway, I have figured out what I can do, and I can report it to my employer.
Sure enough, the leader coughed lightly and said in a deep voice: "Now hand over all these demonized beasts to us. After returning to the manor, you can obediently participate in the northern trade. This is your only choice." "Otherwise
. If so, will someone go to the city hall to report me?"
"Yes." The leader nodded and said, "To be honest, you are indeed very strong. It would take a lot of trouble to kill you. But after reporting you, the kingdom It's extremely easy to deal with you."
Luo Mo didn't answer. Once he accepted the threats from these people, wouldn't he have to be controlled for life?
Therefore, we must not let them go back.
Luo Mo secretly felt lucky in his heart. If these demonized beasts had not tempted them, maybe they would have reported this discovery to their employers behind them.
Speaking of which, their greed gave them the opportunity to make up for their mistakes.
Just kill them all here.
The leader noticed something was wrong with Luo Mo's eyes, curled his lips disdainfully, and chuckled: "I advise you not to think about killing us to silence us, just look at the number of our magicians. Don't make stupid decisions." The leader had already thought about it
. After estimating the combat strength of both sides, he himself is a trainee druid with rich combat experience. He also has three apprentice magic knights, two apprentice mages, and two apprentice magic knights.
On the other hand, Lord Saldin has only one demonized woman by his side. The demonized beasts with him were called tree deer. As far as he knew, they only had some protection and recovery magic, and did not have any offensive combat power.
No matter how powerful Sardin himself is, he is only a first-level magic knight.
With so many people on his side, can this Saldin eat them all?
It’s simply a fool’s errand!
Although the leader followed Romo outside the oak forest, it is still unknown how he killed so many demonized beasts.
But thinking about it, it was nothing more than two groups of demonized beasts fighting each other, with Luo Mo and the demonized woman benefiting from the sidelines.
All in all, the leader did not think that the first-level magic knight would have such strong combat power and be able to kill so many demonized beasts with one person.
Because he often deals with first-level magic knights, he is well aware of the abilities of magic knights.
Taking ten thousand steps back, even if Saldin really has the strength to fight, with so many people on his side, all he has to do is escape separately.
Even if Saldin wins, he will never be able to catch them all in one fell swoop!
So seeing that Saldin seemed to have the idea of killing people to silence him, the leader was not worried at all.
He secretly thought that having such childish and reckless thoughts showed that this lord was not mature enough.
Young people are still young people after all.
