On the third night, as soon as the caravan stopped to set up camp, Qian Weining sent out his guards to patrol the area around the camp.
The guards were all wearing brown leather armor. The armor was made of several layers of cowhide glued together. It was enough to block normal swords and knives. At least, it would be difficult for normal people to deal a fatal blow to them while they were wearing leather armor.
Qian Weining returned after he was sent away by Ren Xiaosu.
He said to Mego seriously, "Sir Mego, I must be honest. I'm in danger. But at the same time, I understand that even though the enemy you're facing is different from mine, we're in the same situation. So, no matter who the enemy is, please don't hold back. That way, we can reach Ghent safely. Is that okay? "
These words made Mego worried. He knew very well that Qian Weining must be facing an extremely powerful enemy before he would discuss things with him in such a serious manner.
He thought for a long time, then looked at Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu smiled and said to Qian Weining, "Don't worry, I'm here."
Qian Weining was stunned when he heard this, and Mego became even more worried.
At some point, Mego even suspected that these words were Ren Xiaosu's catchphrase. No matter what you asked the young man, he would always reply with these words.
The camp was no longer as cheerful as it was on the first day. Even the journey during the day was a little dull.
The young people who had just left Yorkshire to chase their dreams in the big cities understood the cruelty of the world the moment they stepped out of their homes.
No one would forget how they had buried their companions on the first night.
After the wall was built, Ren Xiaosu leaned against the carriage and asked, "How's the purchasing power of the wizard kingdom's currency? How many things can gold coins buy?"
Mego shook his head. "Gold coins are not usually used in daily life. Silver and copper coins are more common in the market. Under normal circumstances, one copper coin is equivalent to 2.5 pounds of rice, one silver coin is equivalent to 100 copper coins, and one gold coin is equivalent to 20 silver coins. Of course, the exchange rate of gold coins for silver coins fluctuates. Basically, it fluctuates between twenty-one and nineteen silver coins. Some people specialize in hoarding gold coins or silver coins to earn the price difference. "
Ren Xiaosu nodded. "That's a very easy business. All you need to do is pay attention to the price of gold and silver. Is there no one who cares about them?"
"Why should I care?" Meg said casually. "Every currency has a transaction fee. You might make a profit, but the Wizard Bank will never lose money."
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu's body suddenly froze. Megor asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"The enemy is here," Ren Xiaosu said.
Meg was a little puzzled. "How did you know? Why didn't I sense it?"
"Intuition," Ren Xiaosu said with a smile.
Megor looked at Ren Xiaosu, but he realized that Ren Xiaosu's gaze was observing Qian Weining and the others. He did not know what Ren Xiaosu was thinking.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu's so-called intuition finally shocked Megor. On the way to avoid being killed, Ren Xiaosu had used his strong intuition to help him avoid the Fire Pillar Spell.
On the first night when the merchant group was attacked by the bandits, Ren Xiaosu had helped him avoid dozens of arrows. At that moment, Megor even felt that as long as Ren Xiaosu was by his side, no arrows would be able to hit him.
Gradually, this strange feeling became that as long as Ren Xiaosu was still protecting him, he would definitely not die.
Megor did not know why he had this feeling. Could it be that he really believed in Ren Xiaosu's bragging?
In the past, Megor did not think too much about it. Just as Ren Xiaosu had said, even if he became a warlock, he would still be a rookie warlock who had never killed anyone before.
But now, when Megor saw how calm Ren Xiaosu was, he suddenly wondered, 'Why is he so calm?
Did he brag so much that even Ren Xiaosu believed him? Or does he have the fearless strength to begin with?! '
"Then should I help Qian Weining and the others?" Megor suddenly asked.
"Forget it. Arrows have no eyes, so it'll be fine." After Ren Xiaosu said that, he called the two Sheepmen who were next to the campfire back and hid behind the carriage together.
At this moment, there were hundreds of bandits on the mountain road outside the camp quickly approaching the camp. They did not notice that there was a black shadow watching them coldly from the top of the mountain.
Ren Xiaosu did not control Old Xu to attack directly because he wanted to wait for the bandits to shoot at Qian Weining and the others!
He hoped that Qian Weining would become a godly archer in everyone's eyes and use battle after battle to prove that title. Then, all the enemies' attention would be focused on Qian Weining, and they would ignore him and even Megor.
It was still the bandits who came, but when the other party realized that the bandits could not complete the mission, it would be the regular army who came.
When the time came, the number of regular soldiers who pretended to be bandits would all depend on the other party's mood.
At this moment, the group of bandits on the mountain had already arrived around the camp. They silently measured the distance of their arrows, and then dozens of them drew their bows at the same time.
At the same time, there was also a group of dozens of bandits moving toward the caravan's camp under the cover of bows and arrows.
When the group of bandits slowly approached the wall of the carriage, Qian Weining suddenly became alert. Before he could get up, an arrow landed in the middle of the camp, followed by dozens of arrows.
Qian Weining's expression froze. He immediately got up and shot toward the direction of the arrows through the gap in the carriage.
The moment the arrow left his hand, the screams of the bandits rang out from the grass on the opposite slope. Qian Weining was stunned. He clearly did not aim properly, but he still managed to hit someone?
Qian Weining nocked his bow and fired another arrow. Another scream came from the opposite side.
To be honest, Qian Weining had never experienced such a carefree battle before. It was as if as long as he drew his bow, one of the enemies would definitely die.
This was no longer a battle of physics, but a battle of metaphysics!
Qian Weining fired arrow after arrow in his hand, and screams rang out from the opposite side of the mountain. Even Qian Weining himself felt that he might have been possessed by a god. He was practically the reincarnation of a god of war!
When the two guards next to him saw that their vice president was so amazing, they even gave up the chance to shoot their own arrows and ran over to Qian Weining's side to help him pass the arrows. It was as if they were shooting assistants who specialized in loading ammunition chains next to heavy machine guns …
In an instant, an arrow suddenly shot through the gap between the carriages, brushing past Qian Weining's scalp.
In his shock, Qian Weining subconsciously leaned back to dodge the arrow, and the nocked arrow in his hand also lost its aim.
He saw the arrow fly into the sky, and Qian Weining secretly lamented.
But before he could finish lamenting, there was another scream from the other side of the mountain. Qian Weining was stunned …
