At the same time, the Red Dragon Knights were stationed outside the forest.
After several rounds of shift changes, the team leader finally couldn't hold himself back any longer.
Because now it's the turn of those five knights to be on duty again.
But until now, he hasn't seen a single figure coming out of the forest. In addition, there have been strange noises in the forest in the past two days, and even the howls of the beasts can often be heard, which makes him feel a little uneasy in his heart.
"You guys, stay here and I'll report."
He arranged for a few knights to guard the sentry while he quickly walked into the branch leader's house.
The lights in the room are bright. It is the latest lighting device developed by the Magic Association. It requires a lot of magic crystals. Considering the cost, ordinary families will still choose oil lamps or candles.
But now, what was originally the hut of the resident knight leader has been transformed into a small three-story building.
The things inside were extremely luxurious. The captain reported to the knight guarding the door and then stood at the door waiting for the report.
Soon he heard a woman's gasping and a man's wanton laughter coming from the third floor.
The team leader felt itchy. The leader of the branch, Setas, was not a nobleman, but because he was a fifth-level warrior, he played a great role in following the old Lord Ross in the battle against the red dragon, so he got this reward now. kind of status.
It can be said that almost anything he wants, someone will bring it to him, whether it is fine wine, property or women.
This kind of life is more comfortable than that of some small local lords.
The captain also wanted to go to the tavern to find a woman to cuddle up with and have fun, but he then thought that he might go to the forest to look for the missing knights tonight. When the time comes, he would go to the orc village and let him Those female beast tribes serve themselves well.
Thinking of this, a certain part of him even started to get a little excited.
At this moment, the movement on the third floor stopped.
Then there was a bang, and the team leader saw that the window on the third floor was violently smashed by something, and then the thing fell heavily to the ground.
The captain was startled, but the guard knight said something strange.
"This is the fourth time this month. The leader's temper is getting really bad."
After listening to the guard knight's words, the captain looked down and found that the person who fell down was actually a naked woman, and he knew this woman as a prostitute in the town, and he had taken care of her business.
well.
The team leader sighed in his heart. Although he was also lustful and would kill the female beasts as soon as he was done with them, he was still very good to humans. And this leader of Setas can be said to have a perverse and violent personality. If things don't go their way, they will risk their lives to vent their anger.
I heard that last time a woman accidentally bit the group leader while doing that, she was pinned down on the bed by Setas and punched half of her head to pieces.
"Damn it! Do you have to disturb me at this time!?"
Soon, an angry roar came from the stairs.
The squad leader and the guard immediately stood up straight, and sure enough, Setas came down with his upper body bare and holding up his pants.
He became even more furious after seeing the squad leader.
"What the hell is wrong with you? Tell me now!"
"Regiment, leader! The five knights who were supposed to take turns disappeared completely after entering the forest the day before yesterday."
"The day before yesterday?!"
Setas is tall and his bare upper body is covered with scars. You can tell at a glance that he is a man who has experienced hundreds of battles.
His thick arms hurriedly raised and pinched the squad leader's neck.
"What the hell are you saying that the person disappeared the day before yesterday, and you're just reporting it now!?"
"Trouble, Captain, please spare your life! I, I thought they were going to the forest to have fun! So, so! Ahem, Captain, please spare your life!!"
"Looking for fun?! You went to that orc village again?! I said you guys are so fucking disgusting, how can you even fuck those beasts!?"
Setas threw the squad leader to the ground, right next to the prostitute's body. The squad leader and Qiqiao's bleeding, dead bodies met each other's eyes, and he quickly got up in fright.
"Regiment, leader, should we send some people to look for him now?"
Setas took a piece of clothing from the guard and said to the team leader.
"Nonsense! The Lord is going to inspect the camp the day after tomorrow. Five people are missing. How do you want me to explain it to him?! Hurry up and call everyone!"
Although the Red Dragon Knights are no longer as brave as they once were, after all, no powerful enemy dares to fight humans anymore.
Even the heads of the dragons that once looked at the sky were hung in the middle of the city as exhibits by humans.
But the overall quality of the Red Dragon Knights was still good. Ten minutes later, all the knights in the garrison gathered in the square.
Setas, who had already put on armor, walked to the front of the knights, carrying a huge battle ax behind him.
It is said that it was the weapon that Setas used to use when he was still a bandit. Because it was appreciated by the old Lord Ross, this battle ax has been kept until now. Otherwise, it is generally difficult to see axes in the knights. of this type of weapon.
"Listen to me! We will conduct a surprise inspection of the orc villages in the forest tonight! Whether we find our missing brothers or not, we will give these orcs a hard beating. I heard that they have been a little restless recently. Then let’s bring down fire on them! Do you understand?!”
"clear!"
All the knights shouted in unison.
There are more than 500 knights in the entire station, and they are well-equipped. Plus 30 mages accompanying the team, this is the standard configuration of a knighthood in the Kingdom of Taris.
Knights directly affiliated with the princess, such as the Fast Knights, are not qualified to equip magicians, which is enough to show that the strength of the Red Dragon Knights is strong enough.
"But don't kill all the damn people. In two days the lord will come to inspect the station and the forest. I don't want to see the lord angry. Do you hear me?!"
"clear!!"
Although Setas said so, he actually knew it very well.
Little Lord Ross is more cruel than his father. Even if all the orcs in the forest die, he probably won't say anything, but his group of men seem to like to have fun in the orc village.
There is no need to spend money, and he can express his desires at will, which allows him to directly pocket all the comfort money distributed by the lord to the knights every month.
So he didn't want the village to be destroyed.
"Set off!"
Setas took the lead on a mountain horse wearing iron armor. He ordered two hundred knights and thirty magicians to stay at the station, and the remaining more than three hundred knights and twenty magicians followed him in a mighty manner. We entered the forest together.
The moment they were about to gather and step into the forest, the scouts arranged by He Wen at the entrance of the village quickly spread the news back to the village.
At this time, the orcs had just finished their meal and were dancing and singing around the bonfire, as if they were celebrating a festival.
After learning that the human knights had entered the forest, most of the orcs began to subconsciously become afraid.
"It still came faster than I expected. There must be something unexpected."
He Wen thought for a while and looked at the iron ore piled in a corner of the village. It was too late to refine weapons now.
"How many people are coming?"
He Wen asked.
Said a female orc with a bandage on her head and sharp eyes.
"Three hundred heavily armored knights and twenty magicians, led by Setas, the leader of the forest branch of the Red Dragon Knights."
As soon as they heard the name Thetas, the orcs were filled with hatred.
In that battle that year, this knight killed countless of their brothers. Among them, Howl's ears almost stood up, and her eyes flashed with angry flames.
He Wen had doubts, but soon Elder Huck quietly told He Wen.
"Although it was Lord Rose Jr. who killed Hal's father back then, it was Captain Setas who destroyed her father's swords."
Eve pondered for a moment and said to He Wen.
"Setas is not a knight of the same lineage. I heard that he was once a bandit. He is very powerful. He is a fifth-level warrior like me. He should not be underestimated."
He Wen nodded and then made a decision.
"Hide all these iron ores first, hurry up, our purpose tonight is not to start a full-scale war with them."
The orcs followed He Wenyan's advice and immediately stood up from the ground and began to move the iron ore. Then He Wen looked at Eve and said.
"Eve, have you ever fished?"
The girl raised her head in confusion and looked at He Wen.
"Of course, but why do you say this now?"
"If you want to catch big fish, you must have good bait. I don't like this Setas. I want to catch a bigger fish. Are you willing to be my bait?"
