Noble Emblem

Chapter 447: Advance or retreat

In fact, the method is very simple, just hide for a while. There are forests on both sides of the road. As long as you hide in and use magic to change the terrain, it will be difficult to find. Beta intends to hide here for four or five days, and at the same time let Jeanne reconnaissance in the air. If there is any ambush in front, you can see the clues in four or five days.

In this way, Beta and others hid in the mountain forest by the roadside, Shirley changed the map nearby, and formed a small basin-like environment at the foot of the mountain, and moved some big trees to cover the small basin. In fact, even from the air, you cannot see the following situation.

The envoys did not have any opinions on this, and they were very clear about how dangerous this mission was. Since the head of the delegation made the decision based on safety as the first element, they naturally have no reason to object.

What's more, they carried a lot of weight, and there was no problem in delaying a few days.

During the first two days, the road ahead was quiet. Occasionally, smuggling caravans passed by, and nothing was found. On the third day ... the atmosphere in the ambassador was a bit boring, and many people wondered if the head of the beta was too sensitive.

But Beta suppressed their opinions, because Jeanne had found occasional shadows in the forest two kilometers ahead.

"They're about to lose their breath." Beta retreated from the connection, and said to Fasiu, "You take the cavalry regiment up 500 meters, set up an ambush in the forest, bring more weight, once you find them When attacking us, you stand directly behind the charge. "

The body was very excited, nodded, and left with his subordinates.

Beta told Bart: "Protect Fashuu ... so he won't be killed by shooting arrows or ranged magic."

Bart shrugged. Although he did not have a good opinion of the aristocracy, Faxiu's journey seemed polite and not aggressive, so he thought it was acceptable to protect Faxiu.

When Faxiu, Bart, and the cavalry left, Beta said to his feet, "Sophia, go ahead and reconnaissance, pay attention to the movement of the enemy, you don't need to take the initiative to scout them, as long as you are stuck in the field of view about one kilometer ahead. Yes, come back and report to me as soon as you find the enemy. "

A dark shadow broke directly from his feet and plunged into the depths of the forest.

"Jessica, walk around the camp and tell me if something goes wrong."

When the little maid Jessica heard the order, she was so excited, she nodded, and ran out. She is of werewolf descent and has a great sense of smell. If an enemy approaches the camp, she will be spotted immediately.

After giving the order, Beta began to rest with her eyes closed. Now that the enemy is coming out, and his arrangement has been issued, the next step is to wait for the enemy to hit the door.

The next day, the sky was just slightly bright, and a black gallop came silently against the ground. Before they approached, Beta and Shirley, who were closing their eyes and resting, opened their eyes at the same time.

Black Shadow came near and turned back into Sophia's appearance. Even wearing leather armor and a tube top, she couldn't hide her sharp breasts.

"The enemy is here." Sophia gasped slightly. "There are about a hundred people. From the costume, it should be a mercenary."

Beta nodded to show that she understood, and Sophia turned into a shadow and re-entered the shadow under his feet.

Then Beta made a gesture to the envoy, Shirley withdrew the surrounding terrain magic, and the diplomatic etiquette got into the carriage. After a while, there were only a dozen carriages, and some heavy convoys reappeared on the road.

The atmosphere inside the team was extremely dull and nobody spoke. Everyone knows that now they are bait, waiting for the fish in front to bite the hook.

If they have some self-protection ability, they will not be so afraid, but they are just ordinary people. The name of the etiquette officer will go out and scare ordinary civilians. It is okay for nobles, professionals, and mercenaries. No deterrent.

The team slowly moved forward, and Rama's horse sprayed white mist, and there was a thin layer of snow on the road, which did not affect the movement of the team.

In a dull atmosphere, the team walked for about half an hour, then kept riding on the front beta, suddenly raised their hands to signal the team to stop moving.

The road ahead is empty, but anyone who has a little experience going out feels abnormal. Because even in this cold weather, there will still be living creatures in the woods, and occasionally there will be wolf howls and bird calls.

But here, there was no sound at all, as if there was no living thing.

The convoy stopped, and Beta made a gesture of backing. According to the recent arrangements, the etiquette officers immediately acted panic-like and tried to turn back the carriage.

When they saw the prey, they ran away. The hunters hiding in the woods couldn't help it anymore. They held their weapons and rushed out.

Betazema stepped back slowly, his gaze looking at the enemies rushing out of the woods. They found that their ingredients were very mixed. Some people wore good leather armor and held steel weapons. Others were undressed and rushed out with a wooden stick.

Obviously, this is a temporary team.

Beta slammed her finger, and Shirley summoned an earthen wall at once ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The earthen wall hurriedly summoned, the length was just enough to seal the entire road, but the height was only about two meters and the thickness About thirty centimeters.

"They have magicians."

"The soil wall isn't thick enough to break it," shouted a man who was apparently a leader.

Beta cast her gaze over and found a bearded strong man giving orders. He smashed a short section of the earth wall with a sledgehammer and appeared exactly at the entrance of the hole, so it was very conspicuous.

The earth wall quickly became fragmented under brute force, and the ceremonial officers of the diplomatic corps accelerated their retreat. Even if they were acting, they were really afraid of such a scene.

But one of the carriages did not back away. It was the carriage where Perisnan and the girl Susan were. They were very confident in Beta.

Next, the earth wall officially announced its collapse. The mercenaries of the temporary guest robbers roared excitedly and planned to pounce on them to grab the loot, while Shirley gained the most attention.

Almost all robbers put their eyes on her. After all, such a beauty, whether it is snatching it as a wife or selling it, is an excellent thing.

But just as they were preparing to act, a horseshoe sound came from behind them. In just a few seconds, the horseshoe sound became louder and louder. The mercenaries looked back, all of them were flying away. .

They wanted to evacuate, but Shirley waved again, and two long earthen walls were vertical, sealing the two sides of the road, respectively. The two earthen walls were still not tall and not too thick, but they had to pass over, It takes time to break it.

The cavalry was getting closer and the ground was shaking.

Now there are only two options for this group of robbers, either to retreat and charge the cavalry hard, or to go forward, break through the carriage of the envoy in front, and then escape.
