Start with the Soul Forge

Chapter 32 32. Laugh? Laughing also counts as time!

As the highest person in charge of the team, Su Zhilan walked directly to the front of the team.

Several trees fell in front of the convoy, and it was obvious that the broken ends of the trees were cut by humans.

The message tree is a time-honored method of delivering messages.

The fallen tree not only blocked the intersection, preventing the convoy from moving forward, but also attracted the bandits from the Partridge Village.

There were a dozen horse bandits in front, and more than twenty bandits armed with sticks and dung forks appeared behind, surrounding the convoy from the front and back.

The people in the convoy were either standing together with wooden sticks in their hands, standing on guard or guarding. Meanwhile, the three school students disguised as the car attendants huddled beside the vehicles in fear, as if they did not know how to fight.

In fact, machetes had already been prepared under these vehicles, and every two or three students were locking onto the same target.

Once the battle begins, the locked target will be eliminated first in the shortest possible time.

Every student in the elite class who has undergone paramilitary training is a good family member from the six counties and a source of excellent soldiers in this era.

When the bandits in front saw people coming out of the convoy, one of the leaders couldn't help but laugh out loud, "I was wondering who was so bold, it turns out you are from Renxin Hall. The boss just made the announcement yesterday, and you guys are transporting for the second time. Don't you take the Partridge Village seriously?"

As he spoke, the leader finally saw Su Zhilan's appearance clearly and couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, you are such a pretty girl. If it were any other time, I would definitely kidnap you and bring you to the village to be my concubine."

The one who spoke was the second in command of the Partridge Village. It seemed that he had anticipated the strength of the Renxin Hall's convoy, and he directly brought out half of the Partridge Village's manpower.

Looking at the second in command riding a horse and walking forward, Su Zhilan was shocked and pursed her lips tightly.

Because she saw that the second in command was wearing a suit of lacquered leather armor.

Not only the second in command, but all the other bandits were wearing lacquered leather armor.

The situation is out of control!

If what we had to face before was just a group of horse bandits, then the difficulty of this mission has now increased to an unacceptable level.

Because this group of horse bandits were wearing armor, the combat effectiveness with armor and without armor are two different concepts.

At the same time, Su Zhilan also realized that this group of horse bandits were definitely murderous and would not let anyone go.

Hoarding armor privately is tantamount to treason, and judging from the fact that all the horse bandits in front of them are wearing armor, there are at least close to thirty sets of armor in Partridge Village.

Once the news that Partridge Village secretly stored so many armors leaked out, the entire province would definitely mobilize troops to raze Partridge Village to the ground, and all the people related to Partridge Village would be implicated along with their entire clans.

"We're going to fight to the death." Su Zhilan lowered her voice so that only Mo Hao beside her could hear it clearly. "I can deal with two armored horse bandits, or pin down four armored horse bandits. If you have any ideas, you'd better tell me as soon as possible."

"If there isn't one, let everyone run away. Whoever can escape is a success."

A horse-riding and armored bandit is more or less like a tank in the era of cold weapons.

Especially when the numbers increase, a dozen armored horse bandits can even cut and devour hundreds of infantrymen at will.

As for those above that, there are only cavalrymen with heavy armor on both horses and men. Even in a unified empire, they are the most precious type of troops. Ordinary small countries do not even have the ability to form a team of ten.

Facing a dozen armored horse bandits in a relatively open area, even if the number of people in the convoy far exceeds that of the enemy, there is not much chance of winning.

Su Zhilan even gave up on the guys at Renxin Hall and let the students from the three schools run as far as possible. The students whose qi and blood were stronger than ordinary people had a chance to escape if they went into the mountains and forests.

but……

“No plan necessary.”

Mo Hao rejected Su Zhilan's approach, put one hand on her shoulder, slowly pulled her back, and faced the horse bandits from Partridge Village alone.

At the same time, he took out the weapons from the box on his back and assembled the Mo Dao. While assembling the Mo Dao, he moved forward and left the defense line surrounded by the convoy's vehicles. "Your people stole my tiger heart. Does anyone want to compensate me now? Pay the compensation within thirty breaths, and you can live."

compensation?

Ask the bandits for compensation?

As soon as these words were spoken, the bandits burst into laughter. It was already good enough to be able to survive after dealing with bandits, and they still wanted compensation?
This was undoubtedly a joke, and Mo Hao's second half of the sentence made the joke even more ridiculous.

"Hahahahahahahahaha, Second in Command, he's asking us for compensation."

"Is this person demented?"

The bandits were all laughing, except for the second in command, who looked at Mo Hao with a serious look in his eyes, "I heard that the man-eating giant insect in Nanshan was killed by someone. Was it you?"

The Partridge Village knew about the man-eating tiger on the South Mountain. Because of the existence of the giant beast, the Partridge Village even took the initiative to avoid the South Mountain area.

Without any thought of answering, Mo Hao's voice was calm but extremely penetrating, ringing in everyone's ears, "Laughing? Laughing also counts."

This answer, which was not an answer, immediately angered the second in command. How could he tolerate Mo Hao's attitude of treating him as nothing, as he was the horse bandit who had the final say in Partridge Village and whose status was second only to the first in command?

The horse neighed and raised its hooves to sprint forward. The second in command raised the knife in his hand and chopped directly at Mo Hao's head.

He had also heard about the story of Mo Hao killing a man-eating monster, but both he and the boss agreed that it was just a rumor spread by the government to gild its own reputation.

Kill a big tiger with bare hands?

Or is it the white-browed tiger with hanging eyes in Nanshan that is almost a monster?
If there really was a hero with the courage of a tiger, why would he stay in the county and be a captain?
So this must be false, and it will only be false.

At this moment, even the second in command didn't know whether he was angry at Mo Hao's attitude, or was afraid that the other party really had the power of being as brave as a tiger. As a horse bandit, the best way to face fear is to kill people.

He wanted to kill Mo Hao.

Facing the galloping horses and the second in command with murderous intent in his eyes, Mo Hao simply raised the Mo Dao in his hand.

His eyes were calm, as if without any emotion at all.

Then...

"kill!"

With a loud shout, the sound was like thunder exploding, the cold light of the Mo Dao flashed past, and Mo Hao's blood and energy burst out instantly, bringing unparalleled power.

In an instant, the Mo Dao and the horse bandits collided, and then a large amount of blood exploded.

The horse's head, the second in command's upper body, and the lacquered leather armor he was wearing were all separated from his body by this knife.

With one blow, both the man and the horse were killed!
Half of the horse's corpse and the lower body of the second in command slowly fell to the ground, splashing a large amount of dust.

The second in command's upper body was full of disbelief, confusion, surprise, and even a little daze.

But soon, the boundless pain completely occupied his brain, making him unable to think of anything else.

The truth or falsity of the rumor about fighting a giant tiger with bare hands has nothing to do with this dying man with only half of his body left.

Mo Hao, whose left hand had completely turned into a ghost hand, held a knife in his right hand and pointed it at the dozen or so horse bandits in front of him. His eyes, which should have been calm, seemed to be broken by something and gradually turned blood red.

He's craving more killing!
"Next, it's your turn!"
