The remaining half poured onto the carriages of several carriages, piercing through the wooden outer walls without any resistance. Screams, screams and wails were heard everywhere. "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The leader was shot through the neck by an arrow, his spine and bones were instantly shattered, and he died on the spot. The deputy captain sitting behind him was terrified and roared in panic: "Guards! Where are the guards?! Come out! Protect the two of you!!!" "Hiss!!!!" However, the horse's crazy neighing after being injured drowned out his shouts. All the horses in the caravan were wounded by the initial hail of arrows, but whether this was intentional on the part of the attackers was unknown, as their injuries, though severe, hardly hindered their ability to run. The frightened horses immediately began to run wildly and uncontrollably, and the dull sound of their hooves trampling the grass broke out without any rules! And their reins are still connected to the carriage...
"Wow--" The carriages were overturned one after another by the huge force of the mad horses, and were still being dragged on the ground. The surviving guards with swords were all trapped in the carriages before they could get off the carriages and be on guard. When the entire convoy was in chaos, more than a dozen figures suddenly emerged from the darkness where the arrows were shot earlier. They were all wrapped in dark brown night clothes, with only their noses and eyes exposed. Each of them was holding a sword or axe that was shining coldly in their hands, and it was obvious that they had no good intentions. They ran silently towards the chaotic convoy. When they were still more than ten meters away from the convoy, they suddenly turned their hands to grind out a few coal-like stones from their lower backs and threw them out together! "Boom! Boom! Boom!..." These "coal balls" which are half the size of a fist exploded violently once they were separated from other objects, sweeping out scorching flames and fierce heat, while splashing a large amount of molten iron-like liquid substance. As soon as the wooden carriage came into contact with the "molten iron" that was emitting a glowing orange-yellow light, it caught fire on the spot. Suddenly, the convoy turned into a sea of fire. "Silence!" Suddenly, a slightly panicked but clear voice came from the blazing flames. The next second, the emerald green light spread rapidly in a circular shape on the grass in the wasteland with a certain carriage as the center, and in less than half a second it encompassed the entire staggering convoy. Then, a vibrant, pure and refined emerald green light bloomed from the circle, and the convoy was instantly immersed in a uniform and soft green. This green light seemed to possess some mysterious power that could calm disasters and soothe living beings. Under its cover, the scorching flames were extinguished in an instant, and the injured and frightened horses seemed to be comforted. Their movements became noticeably calmer, and they soon stood still and no longer ran wildly. This whole process only took a few seconds, and the green light and the emerald round surface quickly faded and disappeared, but the scene stabilized. "Get out of the car! Get out of the car quickly!! Protect the congressman and the young lady!!!" After all, the guards were professionally trained soldiers. After the initial confusion, they quickly regained their composure and used their fists and feet to hit the carriage hard several times. It didn't take long before the carriage was broken from the inside. "Kill! Show these arrogant people how powerful we are!"
Five or six lightly armed sword-wielding guards swarmed out from the hole in the carriage, took up their positions, and fearlessly fought against the attackers who outnumbered them by twice their number. "Ahem... Someone actually attacked?! What's going on... Assassination? Kidnapping? Robbery?" The carriage that had burst with green light suddenly opened up like a blooming petal, and Bernice crawled out from it with a dazed expression, looking around with a slightly bewildered look. She had just got on the car when there was a huge and extremely chaotic noise outside. Before she could react, the car collapsed, causing her to see stars. Fortunately, this impact was completely harmless to the "Bud" vampire. After she came to her senses, she immediately cast a spell from the "Earth" realm - "Silent Forest" to quell the chaos raging in the convoy. However, until now, she was still a little confused and couldn't quite understand what had happened. Could it be that some bandits on the road mistook their caravan for an ordinary merchant caravan? That's not right. With such a large "Guige" bloodline logo printed on the carriage, even if the robbers couldn't recognize that this was a caravan of blood clan members, they would at least be aware that their group was not ordinary, right? How dare they attack? ! Bernice was a little confused, but she also smelled a hint of conspiracy and deliberateness. This group of people... Turning her neck, she cast her gaze towards the dozen or so attackers who were being slaughtered by the guards. It was obvious that although this group of criminals had a large number of people, they were all ordinary people. How could they possibly be a match for the vampire guards? Half of them were hacked to death in one encounter, and the rest had lost all will to fight. They either dropped their weapons and ran away, or knelt down and begged for mercy and were captured on the spot. The battle lasted less than ten seconds before it turned into a one-sided chase - the guards chasing the gangsters and the escapees. "This group of people... can't possibly be coming towards us, right?" Bernice looked at these attackers in confusion. They appeared with such a fierce momentum but were now crushed by the guards and killed without leaving a single piece of armor. Her heart was full of doubts. Chapter 492: Who is the person who ordered it? Because I wasted a lot of time on the high-speed rail to go to school, and the subway was packed like a can of sardines, the update was a little late, but it finally caught up with midnight... The Dragon Boat Festival is over, everyone remember to study hard when school starts~~ ==================== "Damn it! I'm so pissed off! Just a bunch of rabble killed two of our brothers!" A guard's features were twisted with anger. He cursed as he handcuffed a prisoner's hands behind his back and tied his arms roughly, completely ignoring the prisoner's heart-wrenching screams. Other guards were also surrounding and tying up and insulting the surrendered criminals. Only a little over a minute had passed since the battle broke out, but more than a dozen attackers had been wiped out. Most of them were killed on the spot, and the remaining five or six who surrendered in time were beaten and kicked by the angry guards. They were all bruised and looked miserable. "Tell me! Who ordered you here? Do you know who we are?!" The deputy captain who took over the job of the fallen leader slapped one of the prisoners' heads to the side and roared angrily: "How dare you, a bunch of you, rob a convoy of the 'Gui Ge' bloodline?" "Ahem... I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything! Please spare my life!"
The prisoner had half of his teeth knocked out, his mouth was full of blood, his cheeks were swollen, his speech was unclear, and he spat out blood foam with every word. Probably realizing that he had offended someone he shouldn't have offended, his swollen head was filled with fear and panic. He didn't try to show off for even a second and immediately gave in: "My lords...if you can spare my life, I will tell you everything..." "Snapped!" The deputy captain reached in and slapped the other half of the prisoner's face. The prisoner's head tilted to the other side. "Say!" "I said! I said..." The prisoner coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood and quickly agreed: "We, we are just a group of bandits who make a living by robbing passing caravans. Some time ago, we received news that someone hired us to attack a caravan with red roses printed on its carriages. The price offered was very high..." "Someone hired you?!" The deputy captain who was now the leader was stunned, and then realized that the matter was not simple, and his face turned cold: "Do you...know who we are?" "Well, if I tell you...can it buy you your life?" the prisoner asked cautiously. "Snapped!" The leader slapped him again: "Say!" "I'll tell you! I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything!" The prisoner nodded rapidly, his face so swollen that he couldn't even open his eyes: "No, I don't know, but our employer has promised that you are not nobles or members of the church, so...so you don't have to worry about offending someone you can't afford to offend..." As he spoke he glanced at the carriage that had been pulled to the ground by the mad horses, with blood-red roses blooming on it. He was just a bandit who could not read or write, and of course he knew nothing about heraldry. However, it is also clear that the nobles of the Cristo Dynasty would not use simple images of natural objects as their family emblems, and the holy emblem of the Harvest Church does not look like this, but a big tree growing on a stone mountain. So the red rose is probably the symbol of some chamber of commerce or merchant group. After robbing and killing people, they can just escape into the wilderness or deep mountains and everything will be fine. No one can trace them. I just didn't expect that this group of people are so powerful, and there are extraordinary people in charge... I really hit a wall, there's nothing to say, I just admit defeat. Hearing his reply, the leader narrowed his eyes, remained silent for a few seconds, and then said grimly: "Who hired you?" "Master, if I tell you, can I save your life?" "Snapped!"
"Say!" "I said, I said..." The prisoner now spoke as if he had a walnut in his mouth, and his tongue was unable to move: "He's a tall, thin man wearing a leather coat. He's very powerful, most likely a transcendent... Well, you know, in our line of work, we don't ask about anything other than the pay and the mission content. "We really don't know who that person is. If you don't believe me, you can ask the boss... Uh, it seems that the boss has been hacked to death by the master's men... Ah, he was executed. "That's it. I don't know anything more. You can ask other people. I really don't know!" The leader saw that he did not seem to be lying, so he did not continue to torture him. Instead, he turned around and left, preparing to interrogate other prisoners. Just as he walked to the next prisoner, before he could open his mouth, he heard the voice of Bernice, the daughter of the senator, suddenly from behind: "…Mother! Are you okay? Can you speak?" Hearing this slightly panicked voice, the team leader's heart suddenly tightened - could it be that Councillor Lilith was injured? ! This is a big deal! If anything happens to this big shot, I, as the person in charge, will definitely be convicted and thrown into jail! Thinking of this, he no longer cared about the interrogation and quickly turned around and ran towards the source of the voice: "Miss! What happened to the Congressman?!" The first thing Bernice thought of when she crawled out of the overturned carriage was her mother's safety. She immediately jumped out and rushed to the carriage where Lilith was. She used the "Earth" spell to open a big hole in the outer wall of the carriage. The scene that came into her eyes startled her. She saw that the carriage had overturned and the objects inside were also scattered all over the place. Her mother was just trapped underneath the single bed. Her slender eyebrows were tightly furrowed and she was trying to push the bed frame away from her body. Out of worry for her mother, she couldn't help but cry out. Hearing her daughter's worried cry, Lilith looked up at her and smiled reluctantly: "I'm fine... this level can't hurt me." Bernice also understood that as a "blood-out" vampire, Lilith would not be crushed by the bed frame, and it would only be a matter of time for her to break free by her own strength. But she still crawled in through the hole, hugged the single bed with both hands, and together they threw the bed frame weighing dozens of kilograms out of the cramped compartment. Although neither of them was injured, the violent impact and overturning made their clothes covered with dust, making them look a little disheveled. "Huh... I'm glad both of you are okay." Seeing that Lilith and Bernice were both safe and sound, the team leader couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then a very self-blaming and ashamed expression appeared on his face: "It's all my fault for being incompetent. I frightened you two. I deserve to die..." Before he finished his self-blaming words, Lilith seemed to have noticed something and her expression suddenly changed: "not good……" Without waiting for anyone to ask, she turned around and rushed to the carriage that originally belonged to her. "Mother, mother! What's wrong?"
Bernice rushed over, only to see her mother dive into the twisted and deformed carriage, rummaging through the drawers and cabinets, and soon carried out a large wooden box. This large wooden box looked like a coffin, with its surface covered with complex and mysterious runes. However, it was now obviously cracked due to the violent impact and pressure. Bernice was startled when she saw this, and immediately realized what her mother was doing. She immediately had a bad feeling in her heart: "Wait, that guy wouldn't..." Lilith's face turned pale, and she pried open the coffin lid with her bare hands without saying a word. "Click!"
