Chapter 261 Bandits 2
Chapter 261 Bandits 2
"Watch out! It's poisonous!"
Pink smoke, combined with tripwires in the mist, quickly bound the furry beast from top to bottom. The furry beast struggled desperately under the tripwires, but the tripwires, which had been refined, were not so easy to break free from.
The bandit responsible for pulling the tripwire gritted his teeth and struggled to hold on against the immense strength of the furry beast.
"Hold on, brothers! These caravans are loaded! After we finish this job, we'll be living the high life, getting married and living in luxury!" A burly man emerged from the dense forest, looked at the furry beast, and couldn't help but curse, "You rich bastard!"
"Alright, Second Boss!"
The bandit in charge of pulling the tripwire shouted in response and pulled the tripwire back sharply, creating a balance with the furry beast.
The caravan members aboard the furry beast were limp and weak in the pink smoke; the weaker they were, the more they were affected.
Only Buto and Cheng Jiu on the beast still maintained a certain level of combat power. The former was strong, while the latter was unaffected by the pink smoke.
"Dad, Dad, protect the furry beast!" Although he was dizzy and disoriented from the smoke, Blue's subconscious mind was still thinking about the furry beast.
Cheng Jiu took out antidote pills and fed one to each person.
Bhutto grumbled, "What time is it, and you're still thinking about the furry beast! Thanks, Little Nine!"
"You are welcome!"
Under Cheng Jiu's medicine, the group slowly regained their senses. Seeing this, Butuo was relieved. He looked at the bandits below, carried the giant hammer, and jumped down. Then, a loud shout was heard!
"That thief is asking for death!"
The giant blue hammer slammed down with unparalleled force.
"Second-in-command! Second-in-command!"
Amidst the cries of alarm from the henchmen, the second-in-command, who had been on guard, was sent flying by the giant hammer and lay on the ground, his fate unknown.
The henchmen, still holding onto the tripwires, instinctively let go when they met Bhutto's fierce, murderous gaze, scattering and fleeing. Bhutto gave chase, each blow taking several men with it.
The recovered team members quickly joined the battle, and under their swift and decisive attacks, almost no one was able to escape.
"Snapped!"
A powerful slap landed on his face, causing his skin to tremble violently from the force.
"puff!"
The fourth brother spat out three mixed-race teeth, and his face quickly swelled up. He didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction, only bowing his head and trembling like a sieve. He knew he had made a huge mistake.
"Useless! Why didn't you mention that you're a sixth-tier expert!"
The eldest brother stared coldly at the fourth brother, his gaze like that of a venomous snake flicking its tongue, as if the fourth brother had failed to satisfy him and would immediately have his neck bitten off by this venomous snake.
"Boss, I was wrong! That sixth-tier expert concealed his aura, and I didn't detect it!"
The fourth brother's voice was filled with fear as he sincerely bowed his head and apologized.
Actually, it was because Cheng Jiu acted too quickly that he couldn't sense it at all. Also, because he was bombed for no reason, he harbored resentment and came to find the boss without investigating carefully.
He didn't think Cheng Jiu's caravan could have any powerful experts, but who would have thought that a sixth-level expert would be mixed in with the caravan?
"Hmph! I hope it's true."
The leader glanced at the guy; although the other man had many ulterior motives, he figured the guy wouldn't dare to harbor any disloyalty towards him.
There are very few people in the team who are completely loyal to him. There is still a use for this guy, so let's spare his life for now.
Upon hearing this, the fourth brother breathed a sigh of relief; at least his life was saved.
"Boss, what should we do with that caravan?"
"You think you can leave peacefully after messing with my people?" The boss scoffed. "Do you think I'm a pushover?"
"Boss is brilliant! That caravan looks very wealthy. If we can intercept them all..." The fourth brother grinned slyly and winked, "Although I only had a brief encounter with them, the beasts on board were all of excellent quality!"
"I don't do human trafficking; it's morally reprehensible!" the eldest brother warned, glancing at the fourth brother.
"I know, boss! You wouldn't lose out if you took them all, would you?"
The fourth brother, having received the warning, flattered Zhengjing.
"Oh, then I'll go see just how good the quality is!"
The leader led the remaining brothers to completely wrap around the furry beast that Cheng Jiu was riding.
A giant hand swiftly slammed away from the blue giant hammer!
"What gang are you from?"
Looking at the blue giant hammer that had been blasted away, Buto looked at the guy at the front with some apprehension. He hadn't expected that such a master was hidden among these guys who only knew how to fight and steal things.
Although he was not afraid of the leader, the fact that the bandits surrounding them outnumbered them several times over was still quite intimidating.
"Which road?" The leader seemed to have heard something particularly funny, and he chewed on those words in a sarcastic tone.
The fourth son stepped forward, glaring at Bhutto, and said, "Listen up, our eldest son is... the King of Skumir!"
"Where is Mount Skumir?" Cheng Jiu asked Blue in a low voice. They hadn't encountered it along the way.
“I’d heard before that there was a band of bandits in the Skumir Mountains, southeast of the border, who were notorious for their tyranny. But we never passed through there and had never encountered them before. I never expected them to show up here!” Bru said in a low voice.
"Have you heard of it? If you have, then obediently tie your hands and hand over your valuables. Maybe our boss will take pity on you and spare your lives!"
His leader's eyes swept unabashedly over the person sitting on the furry beast, bypassing Cheng Jiu's undisguised gaze, and carefully examined Yan Ji, looking at the fourth brother with admiration: "Not bad quality!"
"Listen, besides that, we also need to keep her here as our eldest brother's wife!" The fourth brother, true to his lackey nature, pointed at Yan Ji and said.
"Bah! A bunch of thugs who rob and plunder, what face do you have! If you kneel down and beg for mercy, I might spare your lives!"
Before Bhutto could say two words, the blue hammer came crashing down.
"You hurt my men! And you think you can just leave like this? You dare to hurt people in front of me again! You've got guts!" The leader drew his broadsword, the golden blade clashing violently with the blue hammer.
The aftershocks blasted several deep craters into the surrounding forest.
No one dared to approach within the fighting range between the two!
"Go! Avenge the Second Boss! Let these guys know how powerful we are!" With a command from the Fourth Brother, the bandits launched an orderly attack on the furry beast. Judging from their methodical approach, they had clearly undergone some training.
As arranged beforehand, Cheng Jiu and the others quickly rode their furry beasts away from the battlefield.
Cheng Jiu, Bulu, and others stepped forward to fight off the bandits.
Although Cheng Jiu is currently only at the first-tier high-grade level, with her already extraordinary physical cultivation and footwork, she can easily defeat bandits at the second or third tier.
Not to mention that if she were to unleash her cultivation, her strength would definitely rise to another level, but Cheng Jiu did not want to expose her greatest secrets just by facing these bandits.
Although they couldn't use their cultivation, they still used talismans and heavenly thunderstones without missing a single one. The bandits they were fighting couldn't recognize what these things were at all, and just thought they were special methods of some race.
