Chapter 116 Late Night Encounter



Time passed by minute by minute, and soon it was midnight. No matter which world it was, the damn weather would never go as one wished. It seemed as if winter was really coming. The temperature on the Cohen Prairie was getting colder and colder. The cold wind kept blowing on Livia who was sleeping, causing his body to instinctively mobilize a little strength to resist the coldness that wanted to penetrate into his body.

Although the temperature was getting colder, fortunately, no monsters or wild beasts passed by and noticed Livia in the first half of the night, allowing him to have a good rest.

But good luck doesn’t always last. In the second half of the night…

Hearing some strange sounds suddenly appearing among the sounds of insects and wind blowing through the grass around him, Livia opened his eyes alertly, quickly grasped the silver sword, turned over and half-knelt to scan the surroundings.

This series of actions was very quick and made almost no sound. The brown horse behind him was still sleeping and did not wake up by noticing his movements. It only moved its body slightly because the weight on its back suddenly disappeared.

Glancing around, Livia quickly looked towards the place where the strange sound came from.

Some dark figures suddenly appeared on the grassland far below the grass slope, but the distance was still quite far, and with Livia's night vision he could only vaguely make out figures that seemed to be human.

Livia opened her eyes wide and observed carefully before she confirmed that the dark figures were indeed humans.

There were six in total, “Human?

There are still humans in this place at this time?"

Looking at the figures in the distance who seemed to be passing by here, Livia narrowed her eyes slightly and thought with some confusion.

Caravan?

It is impossible for the caravan to travel at this time. They know the dangers of traveling at night better than I do. Moreover, this place is far away from the road, so it is impossible for the caravan to come here.

Adventurer?

Bounty hunter?

Looking at the approaching dark figures, Livia kept guessing that based on the fact that the dark figures were getting closer and closer, it seemed that this group of people were about to pass by here.

Thinking of this, Livia frowned deeply. Now he had no time to leave quietly. If he wanted to leave, he had to wake up the horse, and the group of people would definitely notice the noise. If he just waited here, the group of people would normally discover him.

Livia was caught in a dilemma for a moment, but no matter which choice she made, she would be discovered in the end. It was just a matter of waiting to be discovered or leaving and being discovered. After thinking for a while, Livia suddenly slapped the back of his head with a strange expression.

"Why do I have to stay undetected?"

He actually got stuck in a rut and kept worrying about the issue of being discovered, but he didn't do anything, so why should he suddenly hide from a group of passers-by, even if their identities were uncertain?

With an awkward smile and after thinking it through, Livia no longer hid timidly. She hung the silver sword and iron sword around her waist and stood up. At the same time, she used a little force to wake up the brown horse.

Watching the brown horse wake up and stand up, Livia bent down and reached out to pick up the backpack from the grass beside him and hung it a little behind the saddle. Although this set of horse harness did not have a horse bag, Delon thoughtfully added a place to hang the backpack, which showed Delon's meticulousness and thoughtfulness.

And Livia did use it at this time. Although it might make the horse feel a little more uncomfortable than the horse bag, the current situation is better than Livia continuing to carry it on her back, which would affect her movements.

Without knowing what those approaching people were doing, one had to be prepared for all kinds of emergencies. Livia placed her hand on the hilt of the iron sword and looked solemnly at the approaching figures.

At this time, those people who were not far away seemed to have discovered Livia. Although they looked a little panicked, they still pulled out the weapons at their waists or on the sides of their horses in an orderly manner and looked over here.

Looking at the actions of these people, Livia had some guesses in her mind.

Adventurer or bounty hunter, or...

robber?

That's right, under the current situation in the world, there are still people like robbers, even though there are many monsters outside. This is what Livia learned from Will. After all, they stayed in the tavern for a whole day, and it was impossible that they just chatted for a few minutes at night.

Anyway, the people represented by the above three identities are basically not good people. Even adventurers or bounty hunters will rely on force to kill innocent civilians and rob others.

Thinking of this, Livia looked at the people who were driving their horses closer with some vigilance.

However, judging from the actions of these people just now and the aura they exuded, they should all be ordinary humans, and there are no extraordinary people.

That's right. After all, this world is not one of those strange worlds where everyone is extraordinary. Extraordinary people are still a minority in this world. Among the nearly four thousand people in the entire Kovagr, there are only seven truly extraordinary people in the Shadow Panther Knights and forty-five weak extraordinary people (those extraordinary people who cannot fully master extraordinary powers are called weak extraordinary people. Moore, who has awakened the power of wizards for more than ten years but can only barely control extraordinary powers, is also a weak extraordinary person).

Of course, since it is unclear how many Shadow Guards there are and whether there are other extraordinary people in Kovag, Rivia is not included in the count, but it is estimated that there are no more than a hundred people.

This scale was only achieved after hundreds of years of operation by the Kolar family, the lord family of Kovag. One can imagine how rare it is to have a "wild" extraordinary person like Will.

Those followers of the cult...

Needless to say.

"Who are you?"

Just as Livia was thinking about this, those people whose identities were unknown had approached. One of them rode his horse forward and asked Livia.

Hearing the question, Livia put away the messy thoughts in her mind, looked at the other party, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and revealed a gentle smile, "Who are you?"

He asked back in a gentle tone.

While asking the other party back, he carefully looked at the six people opposite him. The man who asked him the question was a bald man, and he looked to be middle-aged. There was a long scar on his left face from below the corner of the eye to the chin. The calluses on the inside of his hand holding the reins showed that he often used weapons. There was also a strong smell of blood on his body.

The five people behind him, except for the bald man who looked like the deputy of the leader and had a gloomy face and a strong smell of blood, the other four people looked ferocious, but in fact they were just like that. They were probably the same as the people Livia killed in the Mamba Snake Tavern in Kwag before, one by one. The smell of blood on their bodies was similar to that of those villagers who turned into cultists.

"..." "I asked first...

You, answer me first."

There was no scene like in movies, TV shows or novels where the younger brother interrupts and taunts others. The five people behind him just looked at him expressionlessly with their weapons in hand. The bald, scarred man who was in the lead was silent for a moment, then spoke in a low voice.

Livia still did not answer the other party directly. When he smelled the bloody smell on the six people opposite him, he knew that the six people in front of him were not good people, which was almost the same as his previous guess.

"Before asking others, shouldn't you first report your identity?"

He still asked back in a gentle tone.

However, this time, after hearing his words, the bald, scarred man's face darkened, and the five people behind him also looked unfriendly.
