There were two people at the front of the team, both on black horses. Rex's swordsmen had been released for many years to train outside. Many of them had other identities. These two swordsmen, on the other hand, were famous mercenaries in the Guild of Professionals. They were wearing mercenary badges when they came out this time.
Because they weren't fighting, the long weapons of the two senior swordsmen were in the carriage instead of hanging next to the saddle. They only had longswords on their waists. Qin Yin's eight-sided sword was between a heavy sword and a light sword. It was also very powerful on a horse. It was a multi-purpose weapon.
The man who was yelling for help was in his thirties. He wore a pink robe, and his skin was so white that it seemed that he hadn't seen the sun for decades. He had a pair of narrow eyes and delicate features, but his beard was unkempt, and the color of his clothes was rather odd.
The swordsman at the front drew his longsword and shouted, "Go back!"
"Hero, help! I've run into a gang of bandits!"
The two swordsmen looked at each other and laughed at the same time. One of them said, "There's a gang of bandits in the Bordeaux area. Not many people know about it. You're the second-in-command of the gang. Have you been robbed by a new gang of bandits? That would be embarrassing. "
Exposed, the man merely chuckled and said, "So, you're an acquaintance. Have we met before?"
"No, I've killed a few of your subordinates. It's not surprising that I've gotten something out of them." The two swordsmen pointed their longswords at the leader of the gang of bandits.
"Don't be so nervous. I'm just itching to borrow some money. If you bring a gold coin with you, I'll let you pass. Is that okay? "
The two swordsmen had been out for years and were familiar with the rules of bandits. The words of the leader of bandits couldn't be trusted at all. Even if he was concerned about the strength of their team, he wouldn't just ask for a gold coin.
"Give him a gold coin. If he still doesn't get out of the way, kill him immediately." It was Nania who spoke, but she was also repeating Rex's words. In the magic chariot, the senses of the Sorcerers were extremely sharp. There were at least dozens of people behind the leader of bandits. Judging from their breathing, they were all very strong.
Rex didn't know if these people had met them at the last minute or if they had been eyeing his team for a long time. Therefore, she threatened him. If he continued to pester her, there would be a huge problem.
A swordsman took out a gold coin and threw it at the bandit leader. He shouted, "Scram. If we see your face again, we will immediately attack."
The bandit leader was completely oblivious to the humiliation in front of him. He reached out and caught the gold coin that flew over, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Thanks. There won't be any more of our people ahead. If you encounter any harassment, feel free to kill them."
After the bandit leader finished speaking, his body flashed and he disappeared into the forest on the side of the road.
"This person's pace is so fast!" Through the crystal inlaid on the car, Nania saw the scene of the bandit leader's departure and cried out in surprise.
"He's an assassin, but he can't beat Zola." Rex had also seen the Bandit's terrifying skills. That kind of movement speed and silent footsteps … If they were in a busy city, it would really be easy to be ambushed by him. However, Rex had always been escorted when he went out, so she wasn't afraid of this kind of person.
Moreover, there was an even stronger assassin by Rex's side. Rex was no stranger to the various means of an assassin, so she didn't feel any pressure. She even instantly judged that the leader of the bandits was no match for Zola.
The two swordsmen leading the way were replaced. These two came to the side of Rex's carriage, and Rex asked, "What's up with that bandit?"
"Your Highness, we're not sure either. The Bordeaux region has always been peaceful, and there's only one bandit group. Most of the time, they're active at the border of Tanggulas. They don't do big business, and they have many powerhouses. The bounty is also low, so no one has come to eliminate them. "
"Don't do big business?" Rex immediately heard the problem.
There were bandit groups that specialized in small business, but the leader of this bandit group was very skilled. If he entered the army, he would at least be able to become a senior captain. A senior captain was already the highest position among the low-ranking officers. People without background, military merits, or qualifications could become a senior captain, and they had to be very skilled.
A bandit group like this could do big business. Ordinary mercenaries couldn't resist them at all. Unless it was a large-scale mercenary group, they wouldn't be swept away by such bandits. But this bandit group never did big business.
"Why? Is there a problem? "Salin didn't know much about bandits. He saw Rex frown, so he asked casually.
"This bandit group has someone supporting them from behind. I just don't know if it's the people of Tanggulas or the people of Cloud Flow. Maybe they're collecting money from both sides. "
Rex said it so bluntly that Salin could understand. Rex was worried about the person behind these bandits.
"Your Highness, why don't … we chase after them and kill them all?" the two swordsmen outside the carriage suggested. There were 24 people in Rex's team, and none of them were weak. Although there were many bandits, the swordsmen were confident that they could kill them all.
They only needed to change to skeleton warhorses. Skeleton warhorses didn't fear terrain, and were most suitable for climbing hills and crossing rivers. When the swordsmen rode on skeleton warhorses, it was as if magicians had cast spells on them for a long time.
"No need. Let Grizzly Bear go to the front. If anything happens, he'll handle it."
"Him?" Although the two swordsmen were surprised, they still carried out Rex's orders to the letter.
Grizzly Bear was more than two meters tall, and he was riding on a rare magical beast. This magical beast had a big bump on its back like a camel, but its hooves were even bigger. There were horns on its head, and its canine teeth protruded out of its mouth. It looked like it had a bad temper.
Grizzly Bear was the chef that Rex had asked for from the west town of Holy Rock City. He was very talented in martial arts. Rex brought him back and got someone to teach him swordsmanship. In a few years, he was actually about to become a Sword Saint.
Grizzly Bear was good-natured and had a pure personality. The people of Gushui Commandery liked him, but Rex was afraid that he would be tricked, so he kept him in the commandery's residence. This time, he brought him out to give Grizzly Bear some combat experience.
One of the swordsmen went to find Grizzly Bear and told him about Rex's request in detail. Grizzly Bear patted his chest and said, "Don't worry. If I meet that sissy again, I'll kill him with my hammer."
Hearing Grizzly Bear's reply, the swordsmen shuddered. He had sparred with Grizzly Bear before. With just a touch of that pair of huge hammers, the weapons would either break or fly out. The sword energy that he had painstakingly cultivated was useless in front of Grizzly Bear.
Once such a straightforward person set his mind on something, it would be hard to change him. Therefore, even if the bandit group had any plans, the only way to deal with Grizzly Bear was to defeat him first. Only then would they be able to execute any plans.
Grizzly Bear rode his magical beast and swayed to the front of the group. Jorah took the opportunity to lift his warhorse and follow.
Grizzly Bear was very good at martial arts, but he could only speak Qin Yin and the common language. This was the Titan Duchy, so most people spoke Titan and Cloud Flow. Occasionally, he would speak Scotia, but Qin Yin was very rare. The common language was only spoken during transactions. Jorah was familiar with many languages. He followed Grizzly Bear because he was afraid that he would encounter something he didn't understand.
"This Jorah, where did you find him?" Rex suddenly asked.
"I picked him up on the road. Why?" Salin hadn't introduced Jorah to Rex in detail. With suspicion in his eyes, Rex said, "His eyes can change color. Did you notice?"
"So what?"
"That's a characteristic of the Cloud Flow Royal Family. Don't you know?"
"Hmm?" Salin's ears pricked up. Of course he didn't know this characteristic. Otherwise, he would have asked Jorah. Jorah must be hiding something from him.
"The Qin Yin Royal Family cultivates secret skills. Their eyes have two colors. One is gold, the other is blue. It all depends on the attribute of the secret skill. The Cloud Flow Royal Family also has secret skills. Their secret skills can change the color of their eyes. The higher the level of the secret skill, the more colors they can change. At most, they can change seven colors. I saw at least five colors in Jorah's eyes. "
The so-called secret skills referred to unique training methods that were different from magic and sword aura. These skills were passed down among the ancient families and would never be passed down to outsiders. Moreover, only the direct descendants would receive the true inheritance.
There were very few direct descendants of the Glücos Royal Family. Only the disciples of Rex and Sephiroth had received the teachings. Rex had been cold since she was young because she cultivated secret skills. It wasn't until she had some achievements in secret skills that she started to feel like an ordinary person.
"Master, I think this Jorah might have really gotten Princess Cloud Flow pregnant!" Neris was suddenly interested.
Hearing Neris's words, Rex immediately asked. Only then did he know how Jorah knew Salin.
"That's understandable. A princess who can receive the inheritance of secret skills must be a very important person in Cloud Flow. Jorah might not be being hunted because he did that. It might be because the princess revealed the cultivation method of the secret skill to him. Salin, what do you think? "
Salin closed his eyes. After a while, he said, "It's okay. I believe him."
Jorah followed beside Grizzly Bear and suddenly relaxed. Just now, a sharp aura had locked onto him, ready to attack at any time. But he couldn't find the source of this aura!
This person who had locked onto him was actually close to the level of a Golden Sword Sage!
Jorah's hair stood on end. He almost pulled out his sword. He didn't know who was going to attack him. But this aura suddenly disappeared and was hard to find. Jorah turned back to look. Salin's carriage was following behind him unhurriedly. There was no movement at all.
This made him feel much more at ease. Following Salin might really be the best choice. He had never been a big shot. If he wanted to live a better life, he still had to make some sacrifices.
"Hmm, since you trust him, I'll let him go." Rex smiled lightly and stopped talking about Jorah.
"Princess, don't let him go. Jorah is a very lecherous person. He even peeped at me bathing," Neris instigated from the side.
