Sin City

Chapter 4

It was then that Yin vaguely remembered that Gordon had bought all the wine beer last night. Suddenly he laughed out loud and let Gordon enjoy the pleasure of working, then left just like that. As the caravan left, Elaine suddenly turned around and saw a tall, large figure near the stables that was still waving at her.

The caravan set off towards the northeast, walked out of Viscount Ansik's territory, passed through the Earl of Bernan's territory, and entered the Earl of Tudome's territory. Half a month had passed, the journey was very quiet, and still had never met the group of robbers that Yin had been waiting for, but met twice with Gordon. Gordon chases the caravan along the way, telling the adventure story to Yin and Elaine, a tract of drinking guards, then works at the inn to pay off the debt for the second time. Every time the Yin and Caravan treaties, Gordon had to work hard for three or five days, this area was very quiet and safe, so there was almost no place for adventurers to make money, he said, Yin doesn't seem to know how little Gordon's money is at all, so always drink up and down and be as content as possible and make Gordon pay.

“This is a punishment, who told him to keep bothering you!” Yin said to Elaine with a smile, Elaine just shook her head and said nothing.

The caravan goes so far, filling the water in every accommodation. However, the car's cargo never increases or decreases, it is still a special product of the Evernight Forest, every few days, the Gordon will definitely appear, it is still a special product of the Evernight Forest, when they heard the sound of horse footsteps and booming laughter, the guards must have known that it was Gordon who had suckled in after paying off the debt, if this continued, if this continued, sometimes when Gordon comes in late for a day, the guards will feel something is lacking.

Two months later, Gordon had already bought out the caravan group six times, everyone knew that in addition to the six days of the deal, Gordon was definitely working to make money, or maybe her six days of work as well, even the guards who originally hated her couldn't bear it, but Yin smiled every time, then handed over her bill to Gordon.

For two whole months, the conversation between Elaine and Gordon was no more than twenty sentences long, but the burning fervor in her eyes made Elaine gradually feel unbearable.

The journey feels peaceful but it is not.

Here was the territory of Earl Gower, which belonged to the territory of the Holy Alliance Empire, among the human forces in the entire Norland continent, the Holy Alliance Empire was also a gigantic existence, compared to the traditional empire, as well, The Sacred Alliance was more like a union consisting of a group of nobles large and small, and the emperors were only the largest and most powerful. In front of the caravan, there were only three thousand kilometers left to reach the capital of the Sacred Alliance, the legendary city on the mainland, Faust City.

The caravan slowly entered the small town of Neuford in Earl Gower's territory, this was the campground for the scheduled route. However, upon entering Neuford, by chance encountering dozens of knights and a mage who rushed out of the city, the entrance and exit of the city was a passing trade route, so it was very dangerous to drive on a horse, the sky blue robes of the knights were embroidered with the Earl Gower emblem, which was very striking from a distance, he said, the pedestrians on the automated trading path gave way to the Knights, and the knights were also very skilled in horse riding, as it could avoid from bumping into people without reducing the speed.

While passing through the caravan, the mage horse suddenly screamed and turned to look towards Yin and Elaine, this was a middle-aged, extremely thin, with bluish black skin, which was probably due to the accumulation of poison caused by spending so many years in the magic laboratory, his pupils were turbid, but his gloomy eyes made the person staring at him feel goosebumps for no reason, he said, the magician robe was extremely beautiful, filled with intricate patterns, but it was not a decoration, but a magic pattern made with compaction magic, she said, such a magic robe was a fixture that only level 9 or so magicians could possess.

The cavalry team quickly left the road, but the witch's gloomy eyes seemed to be etched in everyone's hearts, making everyone in the caravan feel depressed. The caravan stopped in front of the hotel as scheduled, the guards went down one by one and prepared to enter the hotel, but Elaine suddenly said, "We're leaving, right now!"

Yin sighed and said, "But Gordon will catch up here today."

"Go now!" Elane repeated again, this time Yin no longer spoke, but quietly rose, because Elaine rarely spoke, and at most only repeated once.

Now that the sky was near dusk, the nearest city was still tens of kilometers away, so it could only camp in the wild if it left Neuford. However, Yin did not mind, did not even ask her the reason anymore and directly gestured to the guards, they all rode, and the caravan was directed back. As soon as they got out of Neuford, the caravan began to grow, then they left some slow carts by the roadside, even so, after only covering less than 20 kilometers, after which they had only traveled less than 20 kilometers, the sound of the horse's legs rang out from behind.

Elaine pointed towards the mound beside the road and said in a deep voice, “Reverse and form a defense!” The guards immediately left the wagon, ran their horses up the mound, then went down and took out their weapons, each guard holding tightly to the long sword, and, but more than half of the guards took out long bows as their main weapon, to an ordinary mercenary group, this was definitely not a reasonable ratio.

At the end of the road, the sound of horse footsteps like thunder rolling rapidly drew closer, the horses covered in armor rushed out from the smoke. The knight on horseback wore heavy armor and carried a two-meter-long large iron sword. Armored knight Earl Gower! With fifty fully armed knights, Earl Gower turned out to send the majority of their elite troops!

On the side of the heavily armed knights, there were hundreds of light cavalry, and in the middle was the magician that had been seen at dusk earlier, the magician was still wearing the same beautiful robe, but now having a magic wand with a length of three meters, the crystal encrusted at the top of the wand was glowing to meet the lines of the robe and flashing in the dim sky with that strange light.

Everyone on the mound was silent and ready for battle, now their only hope was that the aim of the group of people was not themselves, but that hope was very slim.

The sound of the footprints echoing again in Neuford City, Gordon riding a black warhorse hurriedly arrived at the city and stopped in front of the entrance of the city's largest hotel, but here he did not see the familiar caravan wagon, and the stables were also empty. In the past two months, Gordon had no idea how many times he had bathed horses, almost every guard mount was cleaned by him, so he knew all the horses of the caravan group, he said, but there was not a single horse he knew in the stable.

Gordon's thick brows furrowed for the first time, the black warhorse stood up, turned around several times, landed stably on the ground and rushed out of the city like wind and thunder, disappeared into the vast night.

At this moment, the hills had become killing fields, blood soaked the land of the hillside, the corpses of warhorses and humans piled on each other, the sound of footprints still thundering like thunder, and the heavily armed knights who went back and forth formed a formation on the hill, preparing for the second round of attack formation. They received an unexpected and stubborn resistance, even losing nine of their comrades, but the remaining forty-one armored knights were still a terrifying combat power, their first attack instantly pierced through the hilltop defenses, taking over a dozen caravan lives, but the bows and arrows of the guards turned out to be extremely powerful, and the, thus penetrating the armoured armor equipped with heavy knights, light cavalry who played the role of containment and protection, already 20 more shot down, the light fixtures they wore were almost impossible to stop the sharp arrows fired by the guards.

Yin gasped for breath, held the sword in both hands and pointed straight ahead, bowed slightly, and maintained an attacking posture at any time, but her eyes were fixed on the witch who was hundreds of meters away. The two-handed sword shone brightly, it turned out to be a high-quality magic sword, the Yin level was not very high, but the sword skill and its deadly attack power were terrifying, if it was hit by a direct attack, even a heavily armed knight would be split in half by his sword, Yin-was the cause of half of the losses of the armored Knight Earl Gower.

The battlefield was filled with flames, storms, lightning, and explosions, Elaine was fighting fiercely with the great magician on the opposite side, her level was only level 6, but her magic control was excellent, she said, so that he was able to withstand the opponent's magic attacks for a while, however, the large gap in the level could not be completely covered with skills alone, Elaine's face was paled and her forehead was covered with sweat.

This was a strange caravan, their average level was not high and lower than the elite strength of Earl Gower. However, the equipment and skills were much better, so they were able to survive until now under the attack of an extremely superior enemy.

Yin gathered strength, her eyes revealing an attacking intent on the great magician on the opposite side, but a distance of hundreds of meters, according to common sense, she could not threaten the witch at all, to rush before the magician there were still forty heavy riders on the road.

The magician suddenly shivered from feeling an inexplicable threat, he moved his eyes and caught a glimpse of the many enemies on the opposite side, he said, a delicate and beautiful short bow suddenly existed in Yin's hands, it was only as small as a child's toy, but it instead gave her a powerful death threat. The magician suddenly looked towards Yin and smiled, his smile was so gloomy that Yin chills involuntarily, even so, his hands are still steady, his movements skillful and precise. A delicate little arrow was attached to the short bow, then shot towards the witch's forehead like a bolt of lightning! This arrow was completely contrary to the general principle, completely invisible trajectory, as if directly appearing before the target, the magician's long-range protective shield was secretly destroyed.

One of the highest archer skills, Demon Destroyer!

The arrow left the bowstring, Yin involuntarily heaved a sigh of relief, but the scene in front made her suddenly widen both eyes until her entire body became stiff.

The magician still maintained a sinister smile, behind him, there was a cloud of smoke seemingly generated by the explosion of the spell that did not disappear. At this moment a gigantic sword was stretched out silently, without any action of slashing, it seemed to have been there from the very beginning. Yin's small arrow collided with the large sword and easily reflected as if it was really just a toy. After which, the smoke gradually thinned and disappeared, revealing a knight whose entire body was covered in heavy armor, but an unstoppable strong light burst out from the crack in the armor, revealing a warrior whose entire body was covered in heavy armor, the war horse he rode was also half as tall as an ordinary war horse.

"Construct Knight!" Yin shouted, showing real fear for the first time.

Construct Knights were the ultimate power used by humans in war, they themselves were high-level warriors wearing specially crafted magic armor. However, the characteristic of the Construct Knights was the texture structure of magic loaded by them along with the war horses! Only for those who have five or more magical texture structures can it be called a Construct Knight. On the battlefield, a Construct Knight could easily slaughter an entire squadron of heavy cavalry, and had the power to determine the direction of the battlefield. When the first organized Construct Knight army appeared hundreds of years ago, it instantly became the deepest nightmare for any other race on the continent. Since then, constructors that could carve magic texture structures had become the hottest people in the entire continent. However, the highly demanding talent requirements make the number of constructors always scarce.

The appearance of the Construct Knight made Yin confused as well. At this moment, a green leaf flew down from the sky and stuck to Yin's body, a magic power suddenly emerged from the leaf and wrapped around Yin.
