The last robber simply couldn't believe his eyes. He couldn't believe that these eight people could knock down all of his ten men, and these ten men didn't even have a single injury on their bodies. Their attacks were very fast and deadly, so strong that it was easy to tell that they were all experienced warriors.
This time, the robber is really in trouble.
"Please, please don't kill me. I was forced to do this robbery. If it weren't for this, who would be willing to do this robbery? Those lords asked us to pay enough taxes, but we really can't pay so much taxes. You have to know that those lords only know how to fight all day long and don't care about the lives of us civilians at all. We were really forced to do these things. Robbery was not our original intention." The robber knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging Walsh to spare his life.
Death is so terrifying. Wals swung the sword in his hand, which meant that he could leave as a bandit. After seeing Wals's knowledge, the bandit immediately understood what Wals meant. Even if he didn't understand, he had to pretend that he wanted to leave. All this was for the sake of survival.
Wals looked at him. There was a scar on his face, and he didn't know why it was left there. But the scarred robber disappeared in the blink of an eye. Wals didn't want to take his life. Everything that had just happened had shown that he must let the robber go.
The eight people reorganized and set out again. Originally, these eight people were riding war horses, and those bandits were all infantry. Wals could have left directly, but Wals did not mind helping the lord of the Rhodok Kingdom deal with the bandits in the territory.
The eight people continued to move towards their destination. According to what Lorimer said, they were getting closer and closer to their destination. After passing through a plain in the Rhodok Kingdom, they entered the mountainous area of the Rhodok Kingdom. The entire Rhodok Kingdom was in the mountains, which gave them a natural barrier. Except for the city of Viruga, which was built on the plain, most of the towns were in the mountains. If they wanted to attack these towns, they had to cross the castles built on the mountains. Those castles built on the mountains were easy to defend and difficult to attack. It would be difficult to capture this castle without a strong force.
Even if we rely on powerful military forces to capture this castle, we will still suffer considerable losses.
Just as it was getting dark, Wals had already arrived at his destination at full speed. Wals decided to rest in the nearby mountains for a night to regain his energy before continuing to look for his sword. The sword was under the cliff.
At the same time, the robbers let go by Wals caused him a lot of trouble. The powerful one had really bad luck. He wanted to rob Wals by relying on the advantage in numbers, but he didn't expect to be killed by Wals' eight men. This time, the robber suddenly encountered the Rhodok light cavalry who were patrolling the territory.
"Sir, I am innocent." The robber had really bad luck. This time, the mounted officer pointed his spear at the robber's throat. If his spear was moved forward a little more, it could easily pierce the robber's throat. The robber was in imminent danger, and he squeezed out these words from his throat.
"Innocent? You actually say you are innocent? But how do you explain the blood on your body? Would a person be covered in blood for no reason and run around the world? I think you must be a robber or a murderer. Now go back and accept my interrogation." At least the officer's eyesight was pretty good, because it was dark and his companions were holding torches. Under the light of the torches, the mounted officer could see the blood on the robber's body. It is impossible for an ordinary person to be covered in blood. Even if his body was covered in blood, why would he run around in this wilderness?
"Sir, it's not like that. It's not what you imagined. I encountered a group of robbers. There were really eight people who came out to help me drive away those robbers. The blood on my body was the blood of those robbers." The robber said half-truthfully. The eight people were real, and the robbers were real, but he forgot to count himself in.
"So how many robbers are there in total?"
Being a robber, he stated the reason tremblingly, but when he got nervous, he blurted out a number that surprised everyone present.
"More than 0."
After hearing this, the cavalry officer immediately became furious. This was obviously a deception. Eight people actually defeated more than 0 people. Could they be fully armed Swadian knights?
"Are you kidding us? Eight people can defeat more than 100 bandits. Are they all chivalrous knights?" Obviously, the mounted officer did not believe what this person said. The bandit also knew that there were many unbelievable things in his words. After all, who would believe that eight people could defeat more than 100 people? If it was the famous Kadoc, it was possible, but judging from the current situation, Kadoc would not be here.
At this point, the robber did not hide anything. He added fuel to the fire and continued to speak to the mounted officer, "It is like this, sir. We met eight people. They really were eight people. Judging from their skills, they could compete with the Swadian knights. More than 10 of us were traveling together. We originally wanted to go somewhere else to beg for a living. They were fully armed and were masters of swordsmanship. We ordinary people were no match for them at all. That's why I was the only one who ran back. I hope you will chase them quickly and punish these villains." The robber complained first.
"Really? If it's really as you said, I will indeed send a team of troops to encircle and suppress them. Let's put it this way, you lead the way. We have only one person, and I will continue to investigate and lead the way to find the whereabouts of those eight people. I will report this information to our headquarters, and then I will send some troops to wipe them out. But if you dare to deceive us, I promise that you will die a very painful death."
There is no shortage of bandits on the continent of Calradia. The reason for their emergence is the war. Perhaps there are many other reasons, but the war did produce a large number of bandits. Those bandits were originally homeless and became bandits because of the pressure of life.
In the Rhodok Kingdom, the Rhodok Kingdom has sent troops to attack the Swadia Kingdom, which has increased the taxes on the people in the Rhodok Kingdom. This has led to many people not being able to live a rich life. Many people are starving, some people are broken up, and in the midst of displacement, some people have become powerful. Therefore, the number of bandits in the Rhodok Kingdom has increased recently.
The people of Walls had just fallen asleep when they heard a burst of noise nearby.
Wals, who was highly alert, woke up immediately. In front of him appeared a row of bandits with simple weapons.
Wals could tell at a glance that this group of bandits was not the same as the ragtag bandits he had encountered before. They had a neat formation and their equipment was much better than the previous group of bandits. They were undoubtedly the bandits active in the Rhodok Kingdom, and they were a group of bandits who had robbed many times. These bandits had combat experience, so some regular troops were unable to capture them.
Wals took a rough look and found that there were more than 0 bandits appearing in front of him this time. Although the number of bandits was exactly the same as the bandits he had met before, their momentum was completely different from the previous bandits.
Wals' subordinates were a group of excellent generals who had experienced many battles. At this moment, they felt something was wrong while they were sleeping, and soon they woke up from their sleep. Although they only slept half way, they were still full of energy. Wals came to find the sword this time, and the supplies he brought were all top-quality materials, whether it was food or sleeping bags, each item was enough to cost a lot of money.
"Mr. Wals, it seems that the Rhodok Kingdom is really not at peace. The recent war has exacerbated the collapse of the kingdom. With so many bandits gathered together, their public security must be terrible." Bestul was the first to stand up and whispered in Wals' ear. This sentence reminded Wals that it seemed that the Rhodok Kingdom would not launch a second raid on the Nord Kingdom in a short time. After all, there were already thieves rampant in their own country, so what kind of troops could they put out to fight against the Nord Kingdom?
“闲话少说吧，为了让我们这一晚上睡得安宁，把那些来犯的强盗全部都干掉吧。”沃尔斯轻描淡写的说道，就算那一伙山贼比之前的强盗实力有所提高，但是强盗毕竟是强盗，无法和正规军相提并论，沃尔斯当初战斗力也是无与伦比的，至少正规军他都不放在眼里，这些强盗又能够掀起什么风浪？
话不多说，沃尔斯拔出自己手中的长剑，一个闪身就出现了债领头的那一名伤者的面前，那一名山贼根本就没有想到过他的速度居然如此之快，此时此刻他就知道自己遇到了一个强大的对手，但是在下一秒他却没有任何时间来思考了，只见沃尔斯的长剑已经刺向了他，那一名山贼却根本无法反击。
寒芒一闪，在月光的照耀之下，一颗头颅高高抛起，鲜血四溅，其它的山贼露出了惊骇之声，不过他们在惊讶的时候沃尔斯的七个手下也已经逼近了他们，他们虽然没有沃尔斯那样快的速度，但是可想而知他们依然有着强劲的实力，艾雷恩手中的那一把双手大剑用力一挥，一阵狂风猛然扫过，在夜晚，这一阵阵狂风吹得人冷飕飕的，下一刻两名强盗便倒地身亡。
杰克手中拿着一把战斧，此时他已经能够和正规的诺德皇家侍卫平起平坐了，甚至他还比普通的诺德皇家侍卫要强过一筹。他手中的那一把斧头仿佛能够毁灭天地一般，一名强盗从头到脚被它劈成了两半，脑浆鲜血四溅而非，在他身边的强盗全部露出大男子设。杰克乘胜追击，再一次拦腰斩断的一名强盗的身体。
贝斯图尔弯弓搭箭，他那手中的长弓发出了一道利箭，瞬间就刺进了一名强大的眼睛当中，准确无误的洞穿了这一名强大的脑袋，芜湖医生，那一面那一名山贼倒地而亡。
马蒂尔德左手拿盾右手拿剑，诺德箭的威力依然不容小觑，刀光剑影之间，已经有三名山贼死在了他的剑下。
法提斯，尼扎，一个人拿着长剑，另一个人拿着弯刀，他们虽然都没有骑马，威力却比斯瓦迪亚骑士的冲锋还要狠辣，刷刷几声，地上便又多出了几名尸体。
八个人如同秋风扫落叶一般，那些强盗毫无还手之力，转眼之间，那些山贼便死得一干二净，这一次沃尔斯并没有手下留情，所有的强盗全部都被他送进了地狱。这也算是帮助了罗多克王国一个大忙，轻而易举便剿灭了一支强盗部队。
“好了，活已经干完了，现在我们接着睡觉吧。就算那些尸体会引来山间的野狼，我觉得他们也不会靠近我们的。”沃尔斯对着自己的同伴说道，话一说完，他们便继续进入了梦乡，丝毫没有畏惧那脚边的尸体，仿佛在死人堆里面睡觉并没有打扰他们半点雅兴。
这一切都被那一名罗多克骑马军官给看在眼里，他们一行1个人，包括那一名强盗，这1个人看的目瞪口呆，那八个人如同割麦子一般消灭了0多名山贼，这样的战斗力实在让人叹服，而且更绝的是他们八个人居然没有一个人受伤。这战斗力简直就堪比大陆上面的那个卡多克。
他们这一群人并没有见识过卡多克的威力，不然的话绝对就不会在心里想这些东西了。
不过眼前的一切正好说明了那一名强盗所说的全部都是真的。
“大人，你看我说的都是真的吗，那八个人真的非常厉害。”之前被沃尔斯所放走的那一笔强大对着骑马军官说道，他哆哆嗦嗦指了指那些正在睡觉的八个人。
骑马军官还没有说话，他的一名同伴却突然凑在了他的耳朵对他说道：“队长，我可以看得出来，那一八个人当中的一个人我非常眼熟，正是苏诺的领主沃尔斯。”
这简直就像一道惊雷在平地里炸了起来，骑马军官简直就不敢相信自己的耳朵。
“你确定你所看见的是真的，沃尔斯可是苏诺的领主，他怎么可能就这样轻易的跑到了这里，这里可是罗多克王国的地盘，罗多克王国现在和诺德王国开战，苏诺在最近不久之前就打败了亚罗格尔克国王所率领的大军，这可是和罗多克王国结下了深仇大恨，如果葛瑞福斯国王听说沃尔斯只带了七个人就到了我们国家的领地内部，葛瑞福斯国王一定会集结出来一支千人大军，肯定要把沃尔斯给拉过去折磨致死。”骑马军官不可置信的对自己的手下说道，这一个消息实在是太过于劲爆了，任谁都不会相信的。
可是他的手下却执意于他的看法。
“队长，你过来看一看，就明白了，虽然说你没有去参加苏诺的攻城战，但是我却去了，而且我还登上了城墙，这可真是一场惊心动魄的战斗，我这时也不会忘记我沃尔斯的那一张脸的，那么多名大将全部都死在了沃尔斯的箭下，我绝对不会忘记我沃尔斯的，请你相信我。”
这一名士兵重复了很多遍，为了就是要告诉他的队长沃尔斯来到了这，此时此刻，骑马军官也知道事情并非像往常所想象的那样，如果说只是普通的侠客的话，那些普通的游侠还是可以对付对付的，可是出现在自己眼前的并不是普通的游侠，而是来自苏诺的领主，那一个在苏诺攻城战当中，狠狠的打击了葛瑞福斯国王的沃尔斯。
骑马军官决定不先打草惊蛇，而是先退回去，通知他的领主，这里是温科德堡的领地。骑马军战战兢兢的率领着他的手下不动声色的离开了。
对于罗多克王国的骑马军官，沃尔斯并没有丝毫的察觉，这主要是因为他已经杀掉了两拨强盗，她不敢再相信自己的运气居然会这么差，还能够再遇到一伙人。可是事实就是这样，罗多克王国的骑马军官已经把沃尔斯到来的消息给带了回去。
在温科德堡，塔尔巴伯爵是这里的主人，在斯瓦迪亚王国灭亡之后，格瑞福斯国王将温科德堡给予了塔尔巴伯爵。
骑马军官马不停蹄的带着一帮人回到了温科德堡，就是为了向塔尔巴伯爵报告这一消息。
“是真的像你所说的那样吗？沃尔斯居然只带着七个随从就敢进入罗多克王国的领地，难道上一次的战争已经让他变胆子变得这么大了吗？上一次他有着数百人作为他的士兵，这一次他只有八个人，我可以把温科德堡的全部士兵征集过来，这00多名士兵足够让他死无葬身之地。”塔尔巴伯爵半信半疑的说道。
骑马军官看见塔尔巴伯爵居然还不相信，连忙把自己的那一个同伴给拉了出来。
“卡尔巴伯爵，正如你所见，这一名战士就是当初跟随着葛瑞福斯国王一起进攻苏诺城的勇士，现在这名勇士说他确确实实是看见了沃尔斯，此事千真万确。”
塔尔巴伯爵又对骑马军官的同伴审问了一番，这一次塔尔巴伯爵不管这一件事情到底是真的还是假的。他都决定要派遣人手去看一看。
毕竟这件事事关重大，如果说在外面的人真的是沃尔斯的话，自己就立了大功一件，想一想自己只要征调了00多名市民把沃尔斯给团团围住，就算我特神勇无敌，只有八个人又怎么对抗00多个人呢？当初格瑞福斯国王带领000大军，沃尔斯有着00多名士兵，虽然说也是敌我力量悬殊，但是依靠着诺得援军以及他自身的谋略，才挽救了苏落，可是现在沃尔斯只有八个人，这样的比例实在太过于悬殊了。
0多倍的差距，不是普普通通的谋略就可以填补的，塔尔巴伯爵决定亲自带人去看一看。
“他们现在在干些什么？”塔尔巴伯爵决定先按兵不动，他要征掉自己的士兵，尽可能的把沃尔斯给抓住，他爸伯爵是一个小心谨慎的人，此时此刻，他要不下一个大大的圈套，死死地将沃尔斯给围住。
“现在看起来他们正在温科德堡南边的山脉之上睡觉，应该是要等到天亮的时候再出发行动。”骑马军官如实向塔尔巴伯爵报告道。
塔尔巴伯爵已经心中有了打算，他现在要征掉城堡里面的大部分士兵，细细算起来，塔尔巴伯爵大概可以调集一百多名士兵，这一个城堡也要留下一部分的守军，不然的话成了一座空城，很容易被其他的敌兵给趁虚而入。塔尔巴伯爵也不会因为沃尔斯而丢了自己的老本，况且沃尔斯只有八个人而已，自己又何必带那么多兵力呢？
Count Talba had already made plans and would never make this matter public. If the other party was really Wals, he would lead more than a hundred soldiers to capture Wals and report to King Griffith, which would be a great achievement. If the other party just looked a little like Wals, then he would return empty-handed. If the news got out, he would only be laughed at by others. Besides, Count Talba suddenly had a vague feeling of fear.
He was afraid that his more than one hundred soldiers would not be able to capture the eight people of Wals. This was the key point. If more than one hundred people could not even capture eight people, then his position as lord would really be abolished by King Graves.
The plan must be careful.
He told the Count that he was going to set a big trap and wait until dawn to close it, so that he could be sure that it would be foolproof. Count Talba did not want to be laughed at by others.
Wals had no idea about Count Talba's action. He was now fast asleep. Time passed quickly, the moon slowly disappeared in the sky, and the rising sun appeared above the mountains.
