Chapter 10 Boundaries

"Those people have been here before."

Standing on the spot, feeling the information from the chip in his mind, Adil flashed this thought in his mind.

Standing in the original subterranean, he frowned consciously, instinctively feeling that something was wrong.

"Sir, what's the matter?" Behind Adier, a few followers followed, looking at Adier standing on the spot frowning, a little puzzled.

"It's okay." Hearing the shouting behind him, Adil shook his head: "Let's go."

He took people to the place where the horse was tied before, got on the horse first, and left in a certain direction under the guidance of the guide, ready to explore the next location.

In this way, Adil carefully probed this area for several days, but no abnormality was found in the rest of the place except for the beginning.

After another period of time, it seems that because no "abnormalities" were found in this area, Adil was sent to the border to join the other knight apprentices.

･･･

Several months passed in the blink of an eye.

In a jungle in the wild, several people are carefully exploring inside.

They were dressed in different clothes, and there was a bloody smell mixed with sweat and blood. They all looked like desperados, but the expressions on their faces were very nervous, and even a little scared.

They walked carefully and quickly here, trying to run forward, as if they were avoiding something.

Whoosh!

The sound of an arrow piercing the air sounded, causing a subconscious fear in the eyes of these people.

The sharp arrow with powerful power quickly and accurately hit the throat of one of them, nailing it directly to a big tree behind him, and the crimson blood flowed directly out.

"Run!" Fearful shouts sounded, as if they saw something terrifying, their faces showed an expression of incomparable fear for a moment, and then they all fled, using their fastest speed to get away from here.

In an instant, several arrows flew from afar, hitting several people's chests with great precision and speed.

Ahead, a young man appeared under a big tree, holding a two-meter-long horn bow in his hand.

He looks very handsome, but at the age of thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a black leather armor, he walked quickly from the front like a graceful and polite aristocratic boy.

But looking at this young man, the people around him seemed to have seen a devil, and there was incomparable despair in their eyes, and even their bodies trembled.

"Can't run! He's only one person! Let's go together!"

Looking at the figure of Adil in front of him, among these people, a man who looked like a leader gritted his teeth and shouted loudly to the people around him.

The next moment, an arrow came swiftly and pierced through his chest, making him speechless.

"Damn!"

Looking at this scene, some people gritted their teeth and hid behind the surrounding trees, preparing to gather to fight against Adil.

These people are real desperadoes, and they naturally know what to do at this time. At this time, blood rushed to their chests, and they all picked up their weapons and prepared to rush towards Adil.

Of course, there are also those who still ignore it and rush to the outside.

But these people also died the fastest. In order to prevent these people from escaping, Adil directly picked up the bow in his hand, and the sharp arrows charged towards those people with strong force, shooting several people who tried to escape to the ground.

At this time, those people in front of him also gathered, holding weapons in their hands, and roaring towards Adil.

The bow in his hand was put down directly, and Adil's right hand pulled up the cross sword at his waist in an instant, and slashed forward fiercely.

A human head fell from the sky in an instant, leaving a headless corpse on the spot, dumping it towards the ground beside it.

A battle is over quickly.

With Adiel's physical fitness nearly three times higher than that of ordinary people, these people couldn't see his movements at all, and he easily solved it.

Pulling his sword from a corpse, the expression on Adil's face did not change at all, and then quickly walked to the front.

Some of the people who had been hit by the arrows were not dead yet. At this time, they were lying on the ground, their bodies twitching instinctively. The most tragic among them was the original man, who was directly nailed to a big tree with an arrow.

Adil stepped forward and ended the lives of these people with one sword and one sword, and then looked in a few directions in the distance.

In the previous chaos, a few people still took the opportunity to run out without being left behind by Adil.

At Adair's speed, it was easy to catch up.

However, he finally gave up the idea and stayed in place quietly, waiting for the people behind him to come and deal with it.

He stood there for a while, and there was a sound of footsteps beside him.

"Lord Adil!" There was a call from behind, a middle-aged man in leather armor came with a group of guards, and he was shocked when he saw the corpses all over the ground.

"Clean up the corpses here." Adil said calmly without saying much.

Following the order, the surrounding group of guards began to clean up the corpses.

Said to be cleaning, in fact, mainly to collect loot. The clothes and leather armor on these corpses, the weapons they held, and the money they looted along the way were all a fortune, which was carefully collected by this group of people and gathered to one side.

For this process, Adil just glanced at it and didn't pay much attention.

By convention, most of these spoils belonged to Adil, but Adil was alone, and it was useless to ask for those blood-stained thin leather armors and simple weapons, so he only took away the gold coins and other easy-to-carry ones. What was sold, the rest was given to these guards.

The surrounding guards also knew this, so at this time they were very diligent in collecting them, peeling off the leather armor and clothing on some corpses from time to time, and did not dislike the blood stains on them.

After the loot was collected, there were only one corpse left on the spot.

These do not need to be cleaned up. After a few days, there will naturally be beasts who will find them here along the smell of blood and digest these corpses.

After a while, Adil and the others returned to the resting place, where several other knight apprentices were sitting there, seemingly discussing something.

"Adier, have you caught up with those robbers before?" A familiar voice sounded in Adier's ear, making him stunned for a moment.

That was Dill, who was wearing a leather armor and holding a giant sword in his hand. Looking at Adil's figure, he said with concern.

Looking at him, Adil had a smile on his face, looked at him and said, "Dil, are you here too?"

Dill nodded and said helplessly: "No way. Recently, more and more robbers have appeared on the border of this area, and the battle situation on the front line has become more and more tense, so we have to send all of us here."

"That's true." Adil remembered the situation around this time, and nodded in agreement, and then asked with some doubts: "Is this area always so chaotic before?"

"That's not true." Dill said casually.

"This neighborhood is the boundary between our kingdom of Arriere and the Kingdom of Pod. It was originally a chaotic place. There are some savage tribes, and a large number of criminals and robbers who have escaped to this neighborhood over the years. It is a place that is difficult to manage. But in the past, although the place was chaotic, it was still relatively stable. There were nobles led by Count Boria armed. Although these people were all outlaws, they did not dare to mess around."

"But recently, you also know that the battle on the front line is stuck in a stalemate, and the nobles can't take any hands. These people start to be restless, and they all want to go south to loot."

Dill sighed, and then explained slowly to Adil beside him.

"Understandable." Seeing him like this, Adil showed a gentle smile on his face, sat directly beside him, then pulled out his cross sword and wiped off the blood stains on it with a clean cloth.

After a while, a guard suddenly walked to Adil's side and asked him in a respectful tone: "Lord Adil, someone is looking for you outside."

Adil turned his head, looked into the distance, and then said, "Let him come directly."

The guard behind him nodded respectfully and walked quickly to the side. After a while, a middle-aged hunter walked to Adil's side.

The hunter was wearing a thick animal skin robe, holding a large cloth bag in his hand, with a humble smile on his face, standing quietly in front of Adil.

In front of Adil, he opened the big cloth bag in his hand, which contained some green snakes.

This is a green-eyed snake, and it looks like there are more than a dozen in the bag. To avoid snake venom, the heads of these green-eyed snakes have been cut off and placed separately in another small bag.

Looking at these green-eyed snakes, Adiel's brows were slightly wrinkled.

These green-eyed snakes have not been washed, and there is a strange stench inside. Moreover, among the dried green snake blood, there were also some dried red blood, which was quickly discovered by Adil.

This is terrible, it means that someone was bitten when catching these snakes, and the blood splattered on the snakes. With the venom of the green-eyed snake, ordinary people will die if they are bitten, and there is no luck at all.

And the lack of a labor force is almost a devastating blow to the families behind these people.

Thinking of this, Adil sighed a little.

In this situation, he can't change anything, and he doesn't want to change anything.

No matter what it was for in the first place, since these people chose to take risks, they should be prepared to face this possibility, and whatever the final result is, it is their own choice.

He took off a money bag that had been prepared and threw it directly to the hunter on the opposite side. Then, without saying much, he directly signaled the other party to leave.

The middle-aged hunter still had that humble expression on his face, secretly estimated the weight in his hand, and immediately felt a joy in his heart, and quickly left respectfully.

After waiting for him to leave, it took a while before Adiel started to stand up, picked up the cloth bag full of green snakes, and walked to the side.

He took the snake stones from the snake meat, and then had the snake meat be washed and put aside for disposal.
