"how so?"
When Alman saw that Ed not only did not fight with the robbers, but surrounded the caravan together, his face instantly fell.
"Ed, what do you mean?"
Facing Alman's questioning, Ed stepped forward and said, "Alman, I heard that you recently found a way to make a fortune. I want to have a piece of the pie, too!"
"So much bullshit!"
Gris, who was standing next to him, snorted coldly, rode his horse towards Alman, and slashed at him with his shining long sword.
Things have come to this point, Alman definitely cannot stay.
Not only Alman, but everyone in the caravan will die.
Just as Gris was about to rush to Alman.
Suddenly a fireball flew over.
In order to dodge, Gris jumped off his horse.
boom!
The horse was hit by the fireball and was covered in flames. It let out a series of screams and fell to the ground.
"careful!"
Ed saw a figure rushing down from a carriage and immediately ran to Gris to help him block the opponent's attack.
Bang!
After both sides blocked each other's weapons, they kicked each other at the same time and both retreated.
"18th level mage, 18th level warrior?"
After Gris got up from the ground, his face darkened as he looked at the two people who ran to Alman.
"Alman actually trained four third-level professionals!"
When Gris rushed up, he had already sent his third-level professionals to deal with the two adventurers mentioned by Ed.
But I didn't expect that there were two third-level ones hidden in the carriage.
In addition to the third level, there are eight second level professionals.
At this moment they were protecting Alman, pointing their weapons at the enemies around them.
“Keith, Masaka, it’s up to you!”
Seeing the professional standing in front of him, Alman breathed a sigh of relief.
These people can be said to be Alman’s last trump card.
He originally wanted to let the Grey Eagle Mercenaries show their worth in dealing with the robbers first, and if that didn't work, he could let Keith and Masaka take the field.
But I didn't expect that I would always be your partner.
It turns out that he was in cahoots with the robbers.
Keith is a thin wizard wearing a hooded robe.
Hearing what Alman said, he smiled bitterly and said, "Boss, the two people on the opposite side are higher level than us. There are hundreds of professionals around them. The two of us are no match for them!"
Even if the two tried their best, the best they could do was to delay the enemy.
The level gap is there.
"What should we do then?"
Alman, who had just gained a little confidence, suddenly felt his heart sink to the bottom.
“Boss, you saved our lives, and this is the time for us to return the favor.
Masaka and I will lead our men to hold back the other party later, and you can get in the lady's carriage and escape quickly.
We don’t want this batch of goods anymore, saving our lives is more important!”
As soon as Keith finished speaking, he saw Ed and Gris rushing up with their men.
He quickly waved his staff and released magic towards Ed.
Masaka, who had been silent all the time, now raised his sword and started fighting with Gris who rushed over.
The other guards protected Alman as he rushed towards a carriage.
However, all the other robbers rushed forward.
Alman was trapped five meters away from the carriage.
Although the second-level guards around him are also quite strong.
But facing enemies that are ten times their number, the disadvantage is certain.
As soon as the battle started, someone was shot dead by a hidden arrow.
Watching the guards fall to the ground one by one.
Alman was filled with fear.
When he saw a robber casting magic at him, Alman let out a desperate roar towards the carriage next to him: "Tina, run!"
In the carriage, a blue-haired girl saw this scene through the curtains and tears instantly burst out.
“Father~!”
boom!
The fireball exploded after hitting Alman.
The guards around Alman were all knocked over by the explosion.
Even a few of the robbers' compatriots were affected by their own second-level magic.
"Who the hell cast that magic? Didn't they see I was still in front of them?"
One of the robbers got up cursing.
Among the robbers in the back, a second-level wizard quickly hid the staff in his hand behind his back, glanced away, and pretended nothing had happened.
Although the magic accidentally hurt one of his own people, Alman, an ordinary person, had been killed.
Keith and Masaka, who were at a disadvantage in the distance, saw this scene with sad looks in their eyes.
But as the smoke cleared, the robbers around suddenly discovered that Alman, who was hit by the fireball, was standing there unharmed.
Alman kept his hands in front of his eyes, protected by a magic shield.
"I'm not dead?"
Alman blinked and looked at his hands with a puzzled look.
"Father!"
Tina, the blue-haired girl who was hiding in the carriage and saw this scene, burst into tears of joy when she saw that Alman was still alive.
Just as she was about to lift the curtain and call Alman to get in the car.
Suddenly there was a "bang" sound above the carriage.
It was as if something heavy had fallen on it.
Before Tina and the elf girl Phil could react, a mocking voice suddenly sounded from above the roof of the car.
"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on when a mercenary group turns around and kills their own employer?
It is immoral for you to do this.
Unlike me, adventurers in the Adventurer's Guild will not have this kind of situation."
Anno squatted on the roof of the carriage, looking at the stunned robbers below, and said with a smile: "As an adventurer, since I have accepted Mr. Alman's mission, I will never let my employer get hurt!"
"install?"
When Alman saw the person on the roof of the car, his expression lit up with joy.
He almost forgot.
The An Ke that he hired midway was not a mercenary, but an adventurer.
Its strength is still level three!
So, the magic shield on his body was cast by Anno's companion - Anno's weapons and equipment were obviously those of a warrior, and Alman thought it was the shield cast by Liz.
"Why is he here?"
Seeing Anno appear next to Alman, Gris, who was not far away, hurriedly looked towards where Anno was originally.
Before the battle began, Gris ordered his five third-level subordinates to lead an attack on Anno.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t watch it.
Upon seeing this, Gris' eyes widened in shock.
A few dozen meters away, dozens of people were lying quietly.
In such a short period of time, all of them, including the five third-level ones, turned into corpses!
Among his subordinates there is a level 18 knight.
Even for him, it was impossible to defeat a level 18 knight in just half a minute.
What's more, there are four other third-level and many second-level professionals to assist.
"That guy did this?"
Gris's face changed drastically, and he looked at Anno with shock in his eyes, "Level 4? No, the magic fluctuations on his body are obviously the same as mine, it's level 19!"
whoosh!
An arrow shot from Ed's hand towards Anno.
An Nuo's eyes narrowed, and he dodged the sword by slightly turning sideways.
"【Advanced Perception】Open!"
In a melee, Annuo still likes to use his perception skills.
"Liz, protect the people in the carriage."
"No problem, Master!"
Liz beside him responded and watched Anno jump from the roof of the car to next to Alman.
"【Charge Slash】【Jump Slash】!"
boom!
An Nuo jumped down from the carriage and slashed with his sword, causing the ground around his landing point to collapse.
The second-level professional attacked by Annuo was killed by a single sword strike.
An Nuo turned around and glanced at Alman behind him, and said lightly: "Mr. Alman, the actual situation of this escort mission is not just a bronze-level mission. The battle with the third-level professional needs to be raised to the silver level! As for the reward..."
"Increase! Increase!" Alman's face flushed with excitement, and he said quickly: "Increase to 100 gold!"
"Okay!"
An Nuo laughed and rushed into the crowd of robbers.
“【Thrust】!”
"【Cross Blade】!"
"【Moon Slash】!"
"【Lion Slash】!"
Wherever An Nuo passed, sword beams flew.
After the third-level [Lion Slash] was used, more than a dozen robbers who rushed towards Annuo fell to the ground at the same time.
This scene stunned the people around.
