Clang! Clang!
Blood splattered everywhere, and the sound of metal clashing continued. Su Lun rushed into the group of desert bandits like a hot knife through butter. One enemy after another was beheaded. Su Lun quickly brandished his Storm War Halberd like a reaper. Every move he made would take the life of an enemy. None of the dead bodies were intact.
Wherever he passed, there were broken limbs everywhere on the ground. This bloody and cruel scene made even the desert bandits, who killed without blinking, feel scared. Some of them even turned their horses and fled when they saw Su Lun rushing up like a killing god. But how could Suhlen let go of these bandits who robbed him? He waved the Storm War Halberd and three crescent-shaped light blades flashing with thunder flew out in an instant.
Half Moon Slash x3!
The speed of the light blade was very fast, and a hundred meters was covered in the blink of an eye. The light blade drew a straight line in the sand and instantly hit the desert bandit who was running away. The bandit was cut in half along with his horse before he could react.
The remaining two light blades directly swept through the gathered desert bandits. Wherever the two light blades passed, all the desert bandits in front of them were all cut in half. In the blink of an eye, the light blades swept through the desert bandits like plowing through a hole in a courtyard.
Seeing the tragic death of their companions, the rest of the desert bandits could no longer bear the pressure. They screamed and fled in all directions. But it was too late. The Pegasus was like a bolt of lightning, leaving a phantom on the sand dunes. It caught up with the desert bandits in a breath and was easily harvested by Su Lun.
More than 50 bandits were finally killed by Suhlen. Only two bandits who Suhlen deliberately left behind for interrogation survived.
Swoosh! The Storm War Halberd pierced the two bandits' thighs into the sand between them. The two bandits who had already become frightened could not help but tremble. A fishy smell wafted over.
"Do you want to live?" Suhlen looked at the two bandits and revealed his white teeth. But in the eyes of the two bandits, this was simply the smile of the devil.
"Yes!" The two bandits nodded repeatedly.
"Then tell me the location of your desert bandits' lair and where the treasures that you have plundered are! I, Johnson, will spare your pathetic lives! "
"Don't even think about lying to me. I'll make you guys talk separately. If I get a different answer, then I'll let him have a taste of what it's like to live a life worse than death!" Suhlen smiled at the two desert bandits and pretended to say casually, "I wonder how this desert weather would be for drying dried meat. Which one of you is willing to give it a try?"
"Sir, sir, I'll tell you, I'll tell you! I know where Varfa hid the treasure, please let me go …"
"Sir, don't listen to me. I'm Vaer Fa's confidant. I know all of Vaer Fa's treasures. Please believe me …"
In order to survive, the two desert bandits scrambled to tell Suhlen the location of their nest and their treasures. Suhlen smiled as he lifted one of the desert bandits and asked him to tell him everything he knew. Then, he used the same method to make the other desert bandit tell him everything he knew.
After confirming that there were no mistakes, Suhlen brought the two desert bandits back. At this time, the three high-grade professionals had already ordered the workers to clean up the battlefield. All the war horses and weapons had been collected. Other than the dead and injured horses, there were still 32 horses that were intact.
After the battle just now, whether it was those craftsmen or the other three senior professions, they all looked at Su Lun with awe in their eyes. Even the loud-mouthed Valadin became more careful when he spoke.
"I've found the location of the bandits' nest. It's not far from here. I'm going to make a trip there," Suhlen said to the three of them. The others naturally had no objections to this.
Then Su Lun asked the two desert bandits to take the crowd to the nest of the desert bandits, which was about 30 kilometers away in a straight line. It was a very small oasis. Although it was called an oasis, it was actually a gathering place. There were only a few houses made of khaki-colored rocks in the yellow sand.
After entering the room, Suhlen was surprised to find that the space inside was very large. It looked like an ancient ruin, but the ruin was severely damaged. Only the underground hall in front of him was left. The temperature of the underground hall was comfortable. There was also a well and an underground river flowing through the well, so there was no shortage of water.
This place could be said to be very hidden. As long as the hole was blocked, no one would be able to find it. As long as there was enough food, the desert bandits could live here for a few months.
Seeing that there was a water source here, the whole team became excited. They had been walking in the desert for two days. When they saw a large amount of water, they immediately ran over to drink and refilled their water bags.
After arriving at the nest of the desert bandits, Suhlen asked the two desert bandits to dig out the treasures they had hidden here. Soon, a pile of gold, silver, and jewelry was piled up in front of them. After looking at it, although there was a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry in front of them, Suhlen estimated that it was worth at most five to six thousand Kinnar. He did not believe that these notorious desert bandits only had so much treasure.
"Looks like you won't cry until you see the coffin." The Storm War Halberd stabbed into the ground. The hard ground instantly cracked like a spider web. The two desert bandits were so frightened that they quickly knelt and kowtowed to beg for mercy.
"Sir, this is really all the treasure. We didn't hide a single Kinnar!"
"Sir, please spare us. We've already dug out all the treasures …"
"All the treasures?" Suhlen snorted coldly. He reached out and lifted one of the desert bandits up. "All the treasures? As far as I know, you've been here for at least ten years. Ten years, this is all you've taken? "
"Sir, sir, please spare us!"
"This is really all we have. The rest was given to the nobles in Halta. The goods we robbed were sold to them. The nobles took half of it, and the rest was used to buy food and weapons …"
Suhlen casually threw the bandit to the ground. He knew that these desert bandits were not lying. Caravans would not carry large amounts of gold, silver, and jewelry for trade. These desert bandits must have needed to sell the goods after robbing. Only the nobles in Halta had the ability to swallow the goods. The reason why these desert bandits had been active for so long without being killed was probably because of the nobles' connivance.
"Since you've found the treasures, you can go now!" Suhlen waved his hand and said.
The two desert bandits' eyes flashed with surprise. They then turned and ran out.
However, just as they ran less than ten meters, two arrows flew out in an instant and hit them in the middle of their backs.
"You …" One of the bandits' body instantly stiffened. He looked at Suhlen with eyes full of hatred, then his body went limp and fell to the ground.
"What are you looking at? It was Johnson who killed you. What does it have to do with me, Suhlen? " Suhlen casually put away the bow and arrow, then put the pile of gold, silver, and jewelry in front of him into his storage space.
Five or six thousand Kinnar was enough for him to pay the commission this time.
After a night's rest in the bandit's nest, the team set off for the desert ruins again the next morning. But this time, there were no more desert bandits. After two days, Suhlen and the others finally arrived at their destination. There was a landmark here, an obelisk.
The obelisk was about 30 meters tall, with a large number of patterns, pictures, and words carved on it. However, the obelisk in front of them was broken. The pictures and words on it had been eroded by the wind and sand.
"This is it!" Suhlen looked at the map and compared it with the surrounding environment. He said in a low voice, "Tell the workers to set up camp and get ready to work!"
Under Suhlen's orders, part of the workers set up camp, and the other part began to clean up the sand in the ruins.
The ruins had been buried for thousands of years. Suhlen did not know the door to the ruins, so he could only clean up the surroundings. The workers took out all kinds of attacks and began to clean up the sand. Because there were 50 camels and more than 30 horses, the cleaning work went smoothly.
"Be careful, pay attention to the reinforcement. I don't want to be buried in the ruins!" The two hundred workers began to get busy. It was not easy to find the entrance to the ruins. Fortunately, the leader of the craftsmen was very experienced in excavating these ancient ruins. He knew that there were a few locations in these ruins that had a high probability of being the entrance. The workers began to dig at these locations.
Excavating the ruins was not a simple job. Because this was a desert area, if they wanted to dig a passage, they had to clean up all the surrounding sand. Otherwise, the sand would continue to slide down and block the passage.
Suhlen supervised the workers for a while, then let the others supervise them. He rode his Pegasus and began to wander around the ruins to see if there were any abnormalities. He did not want to spend so much effort to dig out the ruins, only to be picked up by someone else.
The sky gradually darkened and the bonfire rose. The workers who had been digging for the whole day returned to the camp to rest and eat. Suhlen also rode his Pegasus back to the camp. There were no traces of other people around the ruins. It seemed that after he exterminated the desert bandits, those spies had left.
However, Suhlen was not careless. After dinner, the workers who had worked hard for the whole day returned to their tents to sleep. Suhlen and the other three professionals took turns to keep watch.
The temperature of the desert at night was very low, and from time to time, there would be gusts of wind blowing by. Lying by the bonfire, he looked up at the starry sky. The starry sky in the desert was very beautiful, there were no dark clouds in the night sky, and countless stars twinkled in the night sky. Suhlen knew that those stars were not just stars, other than some ordinary celestial bodies in the starry sky, some of the stars were actually projections of the Divine Kingdoms of the gods, so there was a legend in this world that when the stars in the starry sky fell, it represented the fall of a god.
