"Why aren't you panicking at all?" Mego asked Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu said, "Wait here for a while. I'll go back and bring the two Sheepmen to a safe place."
With that, Ren Xiaosu ran back against the rain of arrows. After a while, he returned with the two Sheepmen, followed by Mokes and the others.
Mokes was the Knight Captain that the Li Clan had arranged for Mego. There were 35 other Knights following him.
Logically speaking, they were quite strong, but now they were suppressed by the rain of arrows from the bandits to the point where they couldn't even lift their heads. Bows and arrows were prohibited weapons. Only the Chamber of Commerce was allowed to have 60 bows.
Mokes said to Ren Xiaosu and Mego, "Sir Mego, Sir Attendant, let's hide here. Don't try to be a hero! Especially Sir Mego. If anything happens to you, I won't be able to keep my job. "
Mego frowned. "That won't do. I'm a wizard. How can I hide from the bandits?"
Ren Xiaosu pulled Mego to the side and said in a low voice, "Don't you know what you're doing? Can you block these arrows? Just stay here and you'll be fine. "
Mokes and the others couldn't hear what Ren Xiaosu said, but they felt that the young man was acting weird when he talked to the wizard.
Mokes asked Li Chenggong, "Young Master, does Sir Attendant only talk to Sir Mego like this now, or is he always like this?!"
Li Chenggong hid in the corner and explained, "Don't make a fuss. He's always like this …"
At that moment, Mego didn't let go of his curiosity. He asked in a low voice, "Ren Xiaosu, aren't you afraid at all?"
"Afraid of what?" Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. "It's just a few bandits. I can't do anything now. If I had to, these bandits would all be lying on the ground in a minute."
Meg sighed. "You're the best at bragging I've ever seen. You're bragging so much that you believe it yourself."
Once Mei Ge and the rest gave Ren Xiaosu the impression that he liked to brag, they would think that everything Ren Xiaosu said was just bragging before they found solid evidence.
But for Ren Xiaosu, what kind of situations had he faced in the past? It was a hail of bullets. On the battlefield, there were also mortars, fuel-air bombs, RPGs, and most of the time, heavy machine guns.
Compared to those things, Ren Xiaosu felt that coming to the Sorcerer Nation was a little like a dimensional shock …
It was too easy. Even this battle mode could hardly interest him.
At that moment, the roars of the bandits could be heard outside the walls of the carriage. Arrows kept flying towards them. Ren Xiaosu suddenly said to Mego, "These bandits are most likely coming for you."
"Me?" Mego was in disbelief. "How is that possible?"
"Killing you in the town will provoke the entire Sorcerer Organization. But if they instigate the bandits to kill you, it'll be a piece of cake for any great Sorcerer to kill all the bandits." Ren Xiaosu said, "When that happens, everyone will just think that the world is too chaotic and no one will think too much about it. Think about it, this place is only half a day's journey from Yorkshire. Most bandits won't make a move so close to the town. "
Mego lowered his head and pondered.
Ren Xiaosu continued, "The Tudors are so powerful. It'll be a piece of cake for them to instigate and threaten the bandits to kill you. Look, they've been shooting arrows for a long time. They're just a bunch of bandits. Where would they get arrows from? What's more, they're high-quality arrows? If it's really as I guessed, you'll have to be more careful. Qian Weining also said that there are more than ten groups of bandits on the way north. I wouldn't be surprised if there were even elite troops disguised as bandits. "
"Then let's go back …" Mego looked at Ren Xiaosu eagerly.
Ren Xiaosu shook his head. "You're scared already? I'm here. What are you afraid of? "
"Now that you say that, I'm even more afraid!" Mego said seriously.
At this moment, the little witch, Anan, and the woman were quietly observing the movements outside through the window. Anan said, "Aunt, should I go and deal with those bandits?"
"What are you going to do?" The woman shook her head. "These people are all desperadoes. You might not be able to escape unscathed from the arrows. I think the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce is more shrewd and valiant. He should be able to handle this situation."
An 'an couldn't help but turn her gaze to Ren Xiaosu. Then she muttered, "He's clearly very skilled, but he's cowering here like a coward. He did look very brave when he was chasing after me that night."
While they were talking, a black shadow was quickly approaching the bandits in the wilderness.
As the black shadow ran, the soil on the ground was trampled and rolled up. It was a terrifying sight.
The bandits were completely unaware of the danger approaching them. As they dodged the arrows shot by the merchant caravan, they fired their bows to suppress them.
Each of the bandits was carrying three quivers of arrows on their backs, and the arrows were being thrown out as if they were free. As the merchant caravan had a poor field of vision, they were unable to hit their targets effectively. As a result, the merchant caravan's arrows dwindled, but only a few bandits died.
Soon, when the black shadow was about to approach the bandits, one of the bandits noticed it. "Who's there?"
The white mask looked like a ghost in the dark.
As soon as he said that, Old Xu, who was wearing a white mask, picked up two arrows that had missed from the ground and threw them out!
The arrow's momentum was like thunder, and it actually knocked a bandit off his horse!
Old Xu charged forward at an extremely fast speed, but it did not forget to pull out the arrows that were stuck in the ground. When it arrived in front of a bandit's horse, the bandit wanted to abandon his bow and use his saber, but Old Xu did not give him the chance.
In the blink of an eye, Old Xu jumped up and passed in front of the bandit. With a casual thrust, the arrow in its hand nailed into the bandit's head.
In just ten seconds, the entire bandit caravan had been scattered by "Old Xu."
The merchant caravan guards inside the "perimeter wall" were still nocking their bows. They could not see the situation outside at all, but they could not stop shooting. If they did not suppress the distance between the bandits and allowed them to charge into the perimeter wall, everyone would probably die.
Gradually, Vice President Qian Weining heard the wails of the bandits. The sounds were as shrill as one could imagine.
Qian Weining was a little puzzled. Were all the bandits hit by the arrows? But he clearly felt that they did not hit their targets.
Of course, it was dark, so he was not too sure himself.
When they heard the wails outside the perimeter wall gradually stop and there were no more arrows flying in from outside, the merchants and residents in the caravan were all energized. Ren Xiaosu took the lead in applauding. "President Qian, good archery!"
For a moment, there was thunderous applause from inside the perimeter wall. Only Qian Weining himself looked dumbfounded.
