The wolves were approaching, and the oppressive aura was even stronger because of Roddy's sudden appearance. It made Buffon and Henry's faces more and more unsightly.
In such a critical situation, Buffon couldn't figure out the question that Roddy had just raised. He saw that Roddy didn't notice the crisis at all. He was surprised, but he kindly reminded, "Your Excellency, you should be careful behind you. This wolf pack … I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with."
That being said, in Buffon's opinion, the three people were probably not even enough to fill the gap between the teeth of a wolf …
When he looked over, the encirclement of the wolves had further shrunk. Apparently, they were ready to attack.
Fatty Henry, whose face was full of sweat, stared at Roddy. His brain was better than the simple-minded Buffon, but at this moment, he couldn't see any other emotions from the face of this strange guy … From the beginning to the end, the other party didn't care about the voice behind him at all. There wasn't even a slight change in his expression!
There were only two possibilities to be able to do this: This guy was either deaf or crazy.
But Roddy, who was holding a short bow, was definitely not deaf, so Henry could only temporarily identify him as a madman who didn't care about his life.
"You can't beat this pack of wolves."
Rody's tone was affirmative and there was no doubt about it. Buffon and Henry didn't expect this guy to be so straightforward. Although they knew that what he said was the truth, they didn't want to admit defeat at this time. Buffon frowned and said, "Whether we are dead or alive, we will talk about it after we fight. However, I think Your Excellency shouldn't be interested in accompanying us to die, right?"
"Of course, I won't die. I just want to make a deal." Roddy raised the short bow in his hand slightly.
"Deal?"
Buffon and Henry were completely stunned. For a moment, they couldn't react to Roddy's intention. Because of their momentary loss of vigilance, the wolves instantly seized this gap and immediately launched an attack!
"Damn it!"
Buffon cursed in a low voice, but he could only watch the first wolf pounce straight at him. The other party was extremely fast. Just the most direct jump and pounce made Buffon feel that he couldn't deal with it for a while … Want to block it head-on? His thin and weak body couldn't block it at all. He wanted to hide, but Harry was behind him. He couldn't hide at all!
The wolf pounced on them from the side. It was obvious that it had made Buffon, who was the thinnest and weakest, its priority target. It even completely ignored Roddy – in its eyes, the humans in front of it were not a threat at all!
However, when the wild wolf stretched its body in the air and prepared to bite Buffon's head, a cold light suddenly blossomed in its field of vision.
Buffon raised his sword, but the blood splashed on his face the next moment.
Crack!
When the sound of a skull shattering rose, Roddy had already moved to the side. With just one slash, he cut off half of the wild wolf's head!
What happened next completely stunned the two mercenaries who were prepared to fight to the death.
When the wolves besieged, they were as fierce as a tide. The two wolves that followed behind rushed to attack Roddy. Their method was still to pounce, but after they jumped up, they found that the human in front of them had instantly crossed two meters and easily escaped their attack. The wild wolves that had lost their target landed on the ground, but their bodies suddenly shook before they could adjust themselves.
Puff puff —
Arrows shot out from the wolf's eyes, and the two wolf corpses fell to the ground silently.
In less than five seconds, the three wolves were killed without a sound. When the strong smell of blood came, Buffon and Harry had already lost their ability … But this seemed to be just the beginning.
Roddy, who was holding the short bow, repeated the shooting action with a blank expression. The arrows poured out crazily, and a large number of the moving wolves immediately fell to the ground. Two of the wolves seemed to realize something. They turned around and wanted to escape, but after the buzzing sound of the bowstring, whether it was attacking or escaping, all the wild wolves fell to the ground and died!
Those that were facing Roddy were all killed by arrows in the head; the two wolves that were running away with their backs facing Roddy were also shot in the back and died without a sound …
It was hard for people who didn't have hunting experience to imagine the shock brought by this scene. The fast firing speed wasn't something to be amazed about. Buffon and Henry were very clear about one thing. Even if Wild Wolf stood still as a target, they wouldn't be able to kill it with one shot when its back was facing them!
When hunting in the forest, the archer usually only had one chance to shoot. Unless this shot hit a vital point like the heart, it would be difficult for the prey to die in a short time. Most of the results would be the death of the prey due to excessive blood loss after being shot by the arrow … In order to chase the prey, it usually took a few minutes to a few hours.
But when everything happened in front of them, Buffon and Harry were the most horrifying people: The two wolves with their backs facing Roddy were both shot in the spine and the heart at the same time!
The arrow was shot diagonally into the wild wolf's body from the back. Such an angle was simply incredible! Because normal people would only aim at the wolf's buttocks, they couldn't rely on the angle when the arrow fell to cause a fatal injury.
But now the obvious fact was … the other party not only hit the vital point, but also did it twice in a row!
Nine wolf corpses were scattered around. Roddy put down the short bow and turned his eyes back to Buffon and Harry. He asked again, "Repeat the question just now: Are you two … mercenaries from Gigg Town?"
In the face of this absolute suppression, Buffon and Harry immediately understood the current situation. Buffon still wanted to say something, but Harry answered first, "We have been in Gigg Town for ten years. If you need any help, just tell us!"
Harry's answer made Roddy a little surprised. It seemed that this fat man's brain was really not slow. He didn't talk nonsense and directly stated his intention, "I will hire you for three months."
This was not a negotiation, and Roddy didn't intend to negotiate because he stood in the position of absolute initiative.
Buffon wanted to say something again, but Fat Harry grabbed him and replied, "My name is Harry, and he is Buffon. We agree with your request. There is no problem!"
His decisiveness made Buffon a little confused, but the thin man didn't question the fat man's decision. He just nodded and agreed.
"Then it's settled." Roddy nodded and continued, "The employment period of three months, and the salary will be according to the standard of Gigg Town. I can find someone to treat your injury. If there is no problem, follow me now. "
He was about to turn around, but he seemed to remember something and added, "You can call me Roddy. I only have one request for you now: Keep quiet if you encounter anything you can't understand."
"Yes!"
Harry didn't say anything and reached out to let Buffon pull him up. He, who was just about to give up his life, seemed to have regained his vitality at this time. Buffon's reaction was a little slow, and it was obvious that he still had some doubts in his heart. But then he carried Fat Harry on his back and followed Roddy's footsteps without any hesitation. Obviously, he had 100% trust in Harry's decision.
Roddy glanced at the two mercenaries behind him and slightly narrowed his eyes … He never did meaningless things. This was his eternal principle of conduct.
Buffon walked step by step, wondering what Roddy's last sentence "keep quiet" meant. But when he raised his head and looked forward, he almost threw Fat Harry out directly …
Six Wood Elves with short bows appeared silently on both sides of Roddy. There was even an old elf standing next to Roddy, talking to Roddy while looking at them!
"This … this …"
Buffon stopped and was dumbfounded.
The "Wood Elves" had always been a legend to the mercenaries in Gigg Town. Although there were people who said that they had encountered them every year, it could be confirmed that this rare race had almost no interaction with humans.
But now, these Wood Elves seemed to be … following Roddy?!
"Shut up! Keep quiet! "
Fat Harry, who was lying on Buffon's back, patted him, but his mind was slightly confused. The appearance of the Wood Elves was difficult for him to accept, but it couldn't make him lose his ability to think. But when they came to Elsa's Village, he couldn't help but feel indescribable amazement …
I'm actually in the Wood Elves' village?
And those Wood Elves actually saluted to Roddy?
Who … is he? Why are they so respectful to Roddy?
The Wood Elves' attitude towards Roddy couldn't be faked, but when they turned to look at Fat Harry and Thin Harry, their expressions became more complicated.
The two didn't understand the reason at all. They just felt that the strong elves with short bows in their hands looked cold in the distance. This made Buffon feel as if he had entered a different world. There were several times when he was so shocked that he wanted to speak, but at the critical moment, Fatty covered his mouth.
"Don't make a fuss!"
Fat Harry looked calm, but in fact, how could he calm down? He glanced at all the Wood Elves nearby. He didn't feel happy when he came into contact with a secret, but he was inexplicably flustered. Generally speaking, seeing something that shouldn't be seen meant that he had boarded a "pirate ship" that he couldn't return from …
But what could he do? He helped me to save my life. So what if I boarded a pirate ship?
He quickly adjusted his mentality and found that Roddy stopped in front of a tree hole and was talking to someone inside.
"Buffon, you must shut up when it's time to shut up. If you can't even do this, don't call yourself a mercenary!"
But after saying this, he saw Buffon's sluggish face and swallowed his saliva.
"Gulp."
Damn it! Why didn't this guy give me face? Henry followed Buffon's gaze and immediately felt as if he was struck by lightning. The appearance of the Wood Elf Natha could only be described as "amazing". But seeing Roddy's cold face, Fat Harry didn't dare to have any other thoughts … He fiercely grabbed Buffon's neck and fiercely said through his teeth, "Don't f * cking look!"
Before he could say anything else, Fat Harry suddenly felt the world spinning, and then his whole body fell head first to the ground. He was in so much pain that he almost cried. He held his breath and cursed, "Buffon! What do you want to — "
Before he finished speaking, he raised his head and opened his mouth wide. He stared blankly at the figure that was climbing down from the tree hole in front of him …
