Hearing the unkind voice of the comer, Laien's expression froze, and he turned around.

It was discovered that at some point, a young man dressed in a gorgeous noble costume and a squat old man had already stood not far from the five mercenaries.

Moreover, around the necks of the five mercenaries who had just escaped from death, there were several sharp ice blades floating with cold air from different angles, making the five of them dare not move, and froze in place.

There is no doubt that as long as the caster's thoughts move, the five mercenaries who are at a loss will immediately splatter blood on the spot.

Seeing this scene, Laien frowned and looked back at the caster, the young man dressed in a gorgeous noble costume.

In stark contrast to the gorgeous clothes on his body, he saw a playful smile on the gray-white face of the other party. Between his brows, he revealed seven points of condescending and three points of viciousness.

"Cliff, what do you want to do?"

Looking at the top of the staff in the hands of the noble man in Chinese clothing, the blue magic circle that was constantly spinning, Laien asked in a deep voice.

This noble man named Cleaver was the youngest son of the lord of the nearby largest city, Limestone City.

As a typical aristocratic playboy, he relied on the power and money of the city lord's father, and usually ran rampant in the limestone city.

Even his strength as a Tier 3 powerhouse was promoted by his father's huge resources.

And his father of the city lord, as a representative figure of the newly promoted nobles, was no less than the city lord Marquis Rad, the city lord of Tiege Castle next door, in the cruel methods of governing fiefs and looting the people's fat.

"What? Naturally, it is to avenge my cute pet."

Cleaver looked at the motionless Rock Horn Wolf King, his eyes gloomy.

Immediately afterwards, I saw the colorful staff in his hand swiping in the air.

As the cold air rose, the sharp ice blades that were suspended around the necks of the five mercenaries moved forward a bit, directly pressing against the skin of the five men's necks.

"ah!"

Feeling the bone-chilling chill from the sharp ice blade tip, Bonnie, who was caught off guard, couldn't help but exclaimed, forcing her trembling body from fear to stabilize again.

This kind of death method that could be penetrated by a sharp ice blade at any time in her throat obviously made her fear to the extreme.

However, Bonnie's star eyes still shone with light.

She didn't give up hope, after all, not far away, there was Lord Knight who had just rescued her! Lord Knight will definitely come to save her!

On the other side, he saw that there were bloodstains oozing out of Bonnie's fair neck, which was pressed against the ice blade. Lai'en clenched the metal bow tightly, and tried a little harder.

Then he opened his mouth and said: "Cliff, so, you raised this three-level rock horn wolf king?"

"Idiot, have you finally reacted?"

With a disdainful smile, Cleaver's gray face suddenly showed a strong anger, and he said angrily: "Speaking of which, you are just a watchdog raised by my lord, and you are also qualified to call my lord directly. name?"

After a pause, Clifford's voice rose a little again, and roared: "My lord, Master Clifford!"

Hearing the sound, although Lai En had no expression on his face, he clenched his hand on the metal bow body tightly. After the grip became pale, he finally released it weakly. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, Master Cleaver."

At this moment, Laien clearly understood.

Just as the other party said, in the end, he is just a small independent knight leader who has no backer and relies on the other party's family fief... Even if this fief once belonged to his own family.

Behind the other party is the second prince, a powerful contender for the throne, surrounded by cities of the same power.

As a result, as a fallen nobleman, who was almost forced to disband the Knights, there was obviously no comparison between himself and the opponent who was in the limelight.

As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, even if it is only for the sake of other people in the knights, so as not to be maliciously hurt by the other party, except for obedience, as the leader of the knights, he has no choice.

"Hahaha, it really is an obedient pug!"

On the other side, an insolent and smug smile began to appear recklessly on Cleaver's face, filling the entire forest.

Looking at Cleaver staring at Laien with contempt, while the latter chose to remain silent, Bonnie on the side was stunned, her eyes gradually darkening.

She felt that something in her heart was collapsing rapidly.

It seems that those brave knights who are not afraid of power and finally save the weak, really only exist in the hymns and fairy tales of bards...

"Okay, now it's time to settle the account between us."

I saw Cleaver spat disdainfully, and then said: "I originally let my cute pet go out to hunt and kill a few mercenaries for fun, but now it is dead, how should this account be calculated? "

"Hunting mercenaries?!"

Hearing the sound, the middle-aged mercenary captain was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "So you are the publisher of the entrusted task?!"

"Nonsense, picking up a few pebbles and wanting to exchange for a lot of commissions, how can there be such a beautiful thing in this world?"

Like looking at an insignificant ant, he glanced at the middle-aged mercenary captain, and Cleaver sneered: "Being my pet's toy was tortured and killed, this is the price of your stupidity!"

"No wonder there are strange cover-ups, all this is actually man-made..."

I saw Bonnie biting her red lips tightly, plucking up the courage to ask: "Is the life of a human better than a monster?"

"It turns out that there is a pretty good girl here."

Looking up and down at Bonnie's delicate body, Cleaver licked his chapped lips as if he had discovered a new world and said, "Maybe I can make you die a little later."

Looking at Bonnie's blood-stained white face, Cleaver grinned coldly and said, "As for your question, I can answer you clearly, I am a nobleman and a member of the upper class, and you small town mercenaries, In the eyes of Uncle Ben, they are simply inferior to pigs and dogs."

"you……"

Bonnie was at a loss for words, but didn't know how to refute.

And the other party's vicious eyes full of wretchedness made her hair stand on end, and she was too scared to speak.

"Master Cleaver, these mercenaries are also residents of Limestone City. They are part of your father's rule. As the ruler of this land, you should be the shelter of the residents. Why do you want to kill innocent people?"

On the other side, Lai En held the heavy bow tightly, his face full of indifference.

"My lord, I don't need you, a waste sect whose ancestors can't even keep their own fiefs."

Looking at Laien disdainfully, Cleaver said contemptuously, "As a bereaved dog, don't bark incompetently here."

"In those days, if it wasn't for your family, in the name of marriage, to subtly control the power, and finally support the successor of your family, how could Limestone City easily fall into your hands..."

I saw Laien with a dignified expression, gnashing his teeth.

"The simple truth of winning the king and defeating the bandit, I don't need to teach you again, right? If you want to blame, you should blame your stupid ancestor."

With a cold smile, an uncontrollable murderous aura appeared on Cleaver's gray face, and he said: "Since the brave Lord Knight is so willing to protect the weak, then Lord Ben will give you a chance."

After Cleaver finished speaking, he nodded to the husky old man beside him who had been smiling all the time.

"Hey, young master, the other little cuties are already hungry."

The husky old man understood, and the gloomy expression on the dry old face became a little richer.

I saw that he took out a silver metal bell from his arms and shook it gently.

In the next second, the silver bell that should have appeared did not sound, but a high-pitched and sharp wolf howl came from both the east and west directions at the same time.

rumbling...

Accompanied by the tremors caused by the running of the giant body, in a short while, the two rock horn wolf kings exuding a powerful momentum appeared in the east and west directions.

"This old man turned out to be a beast trainer? No wonder the third-order beast is so tame."

Seeing this scene, Laien secretly exclaimed in his heart.

At the same time, an ominous chill rose from the bottom of his heart in an instant.

Laen just thought of this.

On the opposite side, I just heard Cleaver continue to say leisurely: "Okay, brave knight, it's time to make your choice."

"These two rock horn wolf kings will pounce on you and the other five mercenaries at the same time, and although you can hit a hundred shots, with your strength, you can only stop one at most."

"All in all, you, or the five mercenaries, will always be a meal for the Rock Horn Wolf King."

Looking at the amazed Laien playfully, Clifford said with a savage face: "Then let me take a good look at it. You, who have always taken protecting the weak as your duty, will make a choice."

"Lord Laien, don't worry about us, just kill the rock horn wolf king that rushed towards you! Even if you sacrifice yourself, this brutal guy will not let us go!"

Not far away, the middle-aged mercenary captain twisted his body and tried to move but failed, so he had to shout loudly.

"Untouchable, has my lord allowed you to speak?"

The condescending roar sounded, and Cleaver's gray face suddenly gloomy.

I saw that he waved his staff without hesitation, and the ice blades surrounding the mercenary captain all stabbed into the limbs of the middle-aged mercenary captain, causing the latter to lose his balance and instantly fell to the ground.

In order to make the mercenary captain more painful, this ruthless male aristocrat did not choose to pierce his neck directly, but commanded the sharp ice blade to rub the mercenary captain's flesh and blood back and forth, causing him to faint from the pain. past.

"Okay, brave knight, it's time to make your choice."

Still looking at Laien with a dignified expression, Cleaver nodded again to the dry old man beside him.

"Hey, it's time for dinner, little cuties."

The withered old man first gave a stern smile, and then he shook the silver bell in his hand that only demon beasts could hear.

On the other side, the two rock horn wolf kings who received the signal, naturally, without the slightest hesitation, immediately opened their **** mouths and kicked their back feet on the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust at the same time.

Just like the deadly sickles wielded by the two gods of death, they rushed towards Laien and several other mercenaries respectively.

At the same time, in the hands of the withered old man, a shining giant shield appeared out of thin air, blocking him and Cleaver.

As a three-level animal trainer, he naturally knows how to protect himself and his master, lest the opponent jump over the wall and shoot cold arrows.

Not far away, violent wild aura and manic energy fluctuations collided in the air, making the whole scene suddenly become extremely tense.

It's a life or death decision.

Or, as the mercenary captain said, this is simply a mortal situation.

"How should I do?"

Lai En was already distraught.

He never thought that the other party would attack him directly at this moment!

However, this is to be expected.

After all, the youngest son of the city lord has secretly coveted the position of the leader of the Knights of the Broken Blade for a long time.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the other party is obviously premeditated.

"Even so, I still have to insist on being myself and protecting the weak. This is a belief that I don't read, even if it is the last time in my life."

Realizing this, Laien's somewhat hesitant eyes became firm again.

Seeing that he didn't hesitate, he immediately opened his bow and arrow, pointing directly at the rock horn wolf king who was rushing towards the mercenaries.

And behind him, another huge rock horn wolf king, with his sharp fangs already exposed, flung his bright red wolf tongue, and ran wildly with murderous aura.

As a knight of the bow, leaving his vulnerable back to his opponent is something that Leen has never done before, and now, he has no choice.

"Gathering energy to snipe!"

The next second, a magic arrow exuding strong energy fluctuations suddenly shot out from the heavy metal bow in Coni En's hand.

While stirring up a gust of wind, he galloped straight towards the Rock Horn Wolf King, who was heading straight for the innocent mercenaries.

"Ow... woo!"

Without any suspense, the bow knight's arrow with all his strength successfully hit the head of the rock horn wolf king.

This time, the huge impact brought by the arrow body shot directly into the back of the head from the eye socket of the Rock Horn Wolf King.

As a result, this vicious beast, which had no idea how much human blood was stained with it, was thrown out and killed on the spot Seeing this scene, Lai En still maintained the posture of holding a bow, With a calm face, behind him, the fangs of another Rock Horn Wolf King are already close to Chi Chi!

However, at this moment, the mutation happened again.

The fourth Rock Horn Wolf King suddenly rushed out from the other side at high speed, attacking the mercenaries again!

At this time, Lai En, who was about to be swallowed by the giant wolf behind him, was obviously too late to shoot the arrow with all his strength that needed to be charged.

But Bonnie and the other sober mercenaries, who were just a little less nervous, turned ashen faces once again.

"Idiot, no matter what you choose, you can't avoid the fate of death, hahaha!"

Unbridled laughter erupted.

Not far away, the smiles on the gloomy faces of Cleaver and the shriveled old man grew stronger.

Just as the middle-aged mercenary captain said.

From the very beginning, they had no intention of letting anyone present leave this forest alive.

"The fairy tales are all deceitful... How could there be a hero who saves the weak? It's us who have implicated this heroic knight..."

At this moment, Bonnie closed her star eyes and loosened the staff that she was holding tightly in her hand, apparently giving up hope completely.

Laien also had an unusually calm expression on his face.

At this moment, another young man with a gentle smile and a tall figure suddenly appeared in his heart.

"If that lord was in charge of this place, there wouldn't be such a thing, right? I really want to see that lord again."

Just when Laien closed his eyes and gave up everything completely.

A dandan voice suddenly entered the ears of everyone present: "Make a choice? I'm sorry, only children make choices, I want them all."
