Chapter 68
Although Lu Chen's carriage looks not very good, it took him half a day to renovate and arrange it in the carriage according to his requirements, so it is the largest and most comfortable. Naturally, it has become a place where several familiar beauties often visit. Even when they sleep at night, they don't even dislike him, a little boy, who is "crowding" by the side. Of course, if they could remove the thick wooden board in the middle, Lu Chen would still like them to be so "nostalgic" in this small space, but unfortunately, he now has no chance to sleep with Sharon.
As soon as he ran into the car, Lu Chen ignored everyone's surprise gaze and directly looked for Verona and bit her ear.
At first, the beauty was going to slap him away because the heat sprayed on her ear really embarrassed her, and the sisters were staring at her ambiguously, but her face changed immediately, but she giggled again after a while. Then the beauties saw her poking Lu Chen's head and scolded, "I really can't tell, you guy is really bad enough, no wonder we can let our little Luosha follow you so much. Don't worry, as long as your guess is right, there must be a good feeling for Mar's bastard. Haha..."
Seeing Verona finishing her mindlessly, she jumped out of the carriage agilely, and everyone turned their heads to Lu Chen, who fell down with one finger.
"Well~ Don't look at me like this. You have two choices. One is to not get off the bus no matter what, and the other is to take off your clothes obediently. No, it's leather armor, put on ordinary plainclothes, don't ask why, you will know later. By the way, also, if someone comes later, be polite, pretend to be weak, and don't scare everyone away before you start playing." Rubbing the poked forehead, Lu Chen said resentfully, and glanced at these female creatures who looked like fairies and hearts like tigers. The plan in his head depends on the acting skills of these ferocious beauties.
Although I don’t know what Lu Chen is going to do, the fearless beauties are still very obedient when they hear the fun, because there are a large group of men following them, and they are also bored who can’t do whatever they want. Of course, Lu Chen was thrown out after he finished speaking. Although they are very fierce, they still don’t have the courage to change clothes in front of the boys.
Then, under Lu Chen's deliberate arrangement, he chose a relatively empty place that was easy to see the "real" situation for lunch. The beauties also came out to cook in ordinary clothes, and the food was also a vegetarian banquet selected by Lu Chen. It looked like some poor people who couldn't afford to eat meat.
Although you can find many suspicious points after careful look, such as those tableware, all of which were silver utensils specially purchased by Lu Chen, let alone the thieves peeping from a distance, even Malcolm, who was less than ten meters apart, did not notice that all the men's eyes were attracted by the charming beauties.
To be honest, there are not many thieves who dare to rob a team like them. Malcolm's three hundred people are too neat and uniform. As long as a little experience thieves can see that they are from the army, so they have to put some effort into teaching Malcolm a lesson. Therefore, Lu Chen asked everyone to pretend to be ordinary people to increase the amount of bait, and at the same time, they could also let the entire red thorns stay out of the battle. After all, the purpose of the thieves is nothing more than robbing money, grain, and beauty. Verona, who pretend to be ordinary people, will not kill them. As long as the time is properly mastered, it is possible to let Malcolm's people bear all attacks.
After the artificial beauties happily finished their lunch break, Lu Chen saw a few of the peepers who followed the side left, and the rest simply ate some dry food and continued to follow the team with a look of despicable look on his face. So far, he knew that his plan had been half successful, and he was also fantasizing in his head: It would be better if the thieves were not in front of him.
At the same time, in a dark woods that are more distant, two mysterious men wrapped in black cloaks were also observing all this. One looked extremely strong, while the other was abnormally thin, as if he was a corpse living in a black cloth.
"Haha, Lord City, the materials this time are not ordinary." Old and hoarse voice sounded, making people know that it was the thin man talking at first.
"As long as the master is satisfied, I wouldn't dare to trouble you, Master. The Red Thorn Flower Mercenary Group is not famous because they are all beauties, with twelve six stars and twenty-eight five stars. Except for the fewer people, they definitely have the combat power of a four-star mercenary group. You didn't ask me if you were alone in dealing with them, right?"
Lord Litt responded without any concealment. If Malcolm was here, he would definitely be shocked by his father's personal actions, especially when he even called the people around him "master".
"No need to remind me, I have heard about them. But you are sure that as long as your son and their employer are fine? I think that those 300 people are also good materials, and once they start, they will never have a chance to regret it." The old voice was filled with indescribable excitement, but there was a hint of disdain that was difficult to distinguish.
People with strength all have a little temper, and the city lord didn't take that impatience seriously. He sighed and said, "Master, just let it go, don't provoke me. My subordinates are indeed pretty good, but they are some of the most difficult people to control. This uncertainty is better to get rid of before they cause damage."
The tone was a bit of a pity, but the words were resolute and decisive. The thin master glanced at the cruel city lord and said nothing more.
What he thought in his heart was very different from what the city lord said. Through the Elemental Eye, he could clearly see what the little girls did on purpose, which was obviously tempting those thieves. So he meant more that what Malcolm had to do would not go smoothly. However, since the other party had not heard it, it was even more important that the two of them had a relationship of interest; after all, they needed materials and the other party needed money, so what else did with him? And maybe they could use this to lead to the next transaction. You should know that the difficulty of practicing black magic under the sphere of influence of the Holy See was unimaginable, let alone the undead magic that required a large amount of "materials".
The Elemental Eye cannot be used at will for a long time. The master temporarily revoked the surveillance and sat down to meditate because he saw a large number of thieves gathering at an intersection that the target must pass. estimating the time, they may meet before the evening, which means that the mercenaries consume the most energy and need to prepare dinner.
——————————————————————————————————
No one knew that everyone was still being monitored by third parties. Lu Chen only thought that Malcolm planned to use thieves to perform a clichéd performance to save the beauty. In this way, the team advanced for about five hours.
Just as everyone was wondering about Lu Chen's purpose of asking everyone to do this, they received the order to eat in the carriage immediately. Only then did everyone realize that a battle might happen, and they guessed that Lu Chen's purpose was to confuse the enemy and make the opponent take it lightly. However, to everyone's surprise, they were still not allowed to wear leather armor, just rushing to the road.
Malcolm was also very confused. At about this time, the people in front should let the mercenaries rest with great distress, and even he knew that he had to stop here because the dense grove in front without monsters was the hunting ground for the thieves.
At this moment, his subordinates suddenly came to report that there were signs of inappropriateness before, and there might be thieves lying there.
He was startled first, and then Malcolm smiled on his face, recalling his father's words, "You just need to follow them and wait for the person I'm looking for to deal with them, and then you can take action." He was excited in his heart and immediately gave the order to slightly open the distance and hang it behind. When he thought about it, the opportunity for four days to wait for awkwardly for four days was finally here.
On the contrary, Lu Chen was depressed at this time, because he had been on the alert left eye and really saw what he was most reluctant to happen. The thieves actually appeared on the road ahead.
However, seeing that their arrangement seemed to be to cut off the team's laziness, a temporary idea came up. He was going to surprise the thieves and cooperate with them to pull the team that was originally concentrated into a long snake formation so that they could do it.
The road lies in the middle of the woods, with water and wild game. At first, it was an excellent camping site, which was convenient for travelers to rest and spend the night, but gradually it became a place where thieves were rampant. Except for the more powerful team, no one dared to spend the night here.
As soon as they entered the woods, the beasts pulling the cart seemed to feel the danger here, and they didn't need the command of the driver. The four hooves ran hard, and their speed was getting faster and faster, as if they were afraid that they would never be able to leave the forest again.
As he got closer to the ambush, Lu Chen's heart became calmer and calmer, because he saw that the thieves did not look at their seven carriages nervously, but kept looking at Malcolm following behind on the canopy, which showed that things were indeed as he guessed. However, he was a little confused: Since these thieves were not arranged by Mar, then does he really need to use the power of the red thorn flowers to protect them?
Seeing Lu Chen and his carriage getting wider and wider, Malcolm was a little uneasy, and something happened to others. But if these thieves who might have come to help them do too much, their tolerance will be in vain.
Thinking that the other party was a thief with extremely low credit, Malcolm, who was unstable, ordered to chase after him again, but he did not consider that the two opposite orders in a short period of time caused great inconvenience to his team.
First, Lu Chen's deliberate behavior, and then Malcolm was disorganized, and the compact squadron of 300 people was pulled into a straight line without any doubt.
At the same time, as guessed, when all the carriages on this line entered the forest, the thieves' attacks were launched.
First, the leaves on both sides of the road rustled, then the neighing of the beasts, and then the collapse of the trees. Then the team became chaotic, and the broken wood lying in the middle of the road immediately burned, and the raging fire completely blocked the carriage from the guards.
