005 Greed
In this way, the transaction between the two parties ended on bad terms.
A few miles away from the canyon, the old man of the fox tribe ordered everyone to stop.
"Father, do you have any instructions for calling me here?" A masked fox tribe member came over.
"Carter, return to the business area immediately and summon all the guards!" the old man from the Fox tribe said with a cold face, a trace of excitement floating between his white eyebrows.
"Father, what are you doing?" The masked fox tribe members were a little confused. There were hundreds of guards. Why did they gather people in the middle of the night?
Could it be?
The masked fox tribe member suddenly understood something. He glanced at his father and understood even more.
Sure enough, the old man of the Fox tribe sneered and said, "Have you forgotten? A member of the Chamber of Commerce disappeared half a month ago. The association sent people to investigate, but there is no news about him in several nearby business districts."
"That missing elf businessman? But what does this have to do with that group of people?" The masked fox tribesman was puzzled.
The Chamber of Commerce did indeed miss a businessman half a month ago. It was normal for a businessman to disappear, but the only difference was that one of the elves in the caravan turned out to be an elven noble son.
This disappearance is not a small matter. Even most of the merchants in the commercial area were alarmed. It can be said that everyone knows about it.
"Guess what I saw just now? The logo of the Chamber of Commerce, the logo of our Chamber of Commerce, what does this mean?" The old man of the Fox tribe said leisurely, narrowing his fox eyes.
"Were the elf merchants robbed by that group of people?"
"Father wants to catch these bandits and then go to the elf noble in the business district to collect the reward?"
"Stupid!" Upon hearing this, the old man of the Fox clan suddenly turned cold and scolded.
"Receive a reward? What reward? Remember, the elf noble is definitely not simple, and the dead elf businessman may not be very important."
"When the situation is ambiguous, don't provoke those we can't afford to provoke."
"As for this group of thieves, I just took a fancy to that batch of goods, which are worth a lot of money."
"The stupid quilboar actually wants fifty gold coins? Hahahaha, I don't know what to say, the inferior quilboar actually knows how to bargain."
"It's just that his pig brain will never figure it out. From the moment I saw that batch of goods, I had no intention of paying a penny."
"Go back immediately and summon the guards. There are only about thirty people in this group of bandits. To be on the safe side, seventy or eighty guards are enough for you." The old man of the Fox clan said with a slight smile.
If he gets this batch of goods, he will get at least hundreds of gold coins out of thin air, and hundreds of gold coins are not a small amount for him.
"Yes, father, I'll go right away!"
"Well, remember to be quick and don't let others find any clues."
"yes!"
…
In the valley, Kadan was sitting around the fire. Suddenly a dwarf ran over and said: "Chief, our people have lost track!"
"Lost?" Cardin frowned and glanced at the dwarf.
"Yes, at a fork in the road, our people lost their traces!" The dwarf lowered his head and said with some guilt.
The people he followed were all dwarves arranged by him, but unexpectedly, he was abandoned by others after only a few miles.
"Forget it, if you lose it, just lose it!" Kadan said calmly. He must have been discovered by the other party and was deliberately thrown away.
"Go down and let the brothers rest!"
"yes!"
"Wait, let Warwick lead the people he leads, get close to us, but keep a distance."
"yes!"
After the dwarf left, Kadan's fat and majestic body suddenly climbed up the rock wall of the canyon like a monkey.
Time passed slowly, and several hours passed. On the top of a small mountain range on the west side of the canyon, Cardin was sitting cross-legged, with a light golden element covering his whole body.
The golden element here is fighting spirit, which is also the source of Kadan’s power.
Kadan originally just wanted to test whether there was moonlight essence, but he didn't expect that the moonlight really made the fighting energy in his body flow faster and become more solid.
Um?
Cardin suddenly looked to his right. Far, far away, at least three miles away, there were people rushing toward him, and there were quite a few of them, nearly a hundred.
Level 5 warriors can still see three or four miles away!
Is it really this old fox?
Cardin observed for a few times, and then jumped down from the top of the mountain.
In the middle of the night, two miles away from the canyon, hundreds of people were slowly coming. The leader was the old man of the Fox tribe. At this moment, he was high-spirited, as if he had a chance to win.
"Carter, Naqin, you two each lead 20 people to surround us from the left and right sides. There is only one way out of this canyon. You must kill them all and not let any of them escape."
"Yes!" The masked fox tribe came out together with a tall bald man who was also masked.
After receiving the order from the old man of the Fox clan, the two men immediately removed 20 people from the nearly 100-strong team and surrounded them from both sides.
When we were dozens of meters outside the canyon,
"Sir, the people are already in place!" A guard came to the fox clan old man to report.
"Fire the arrow!!" said the old man of the Fox clan, squinting his eyes and waving his hand fiercely.
Whoosh!!!
Whoosh!!!
...~
Sharp arrows pierced the air and shot into the canyon, wave after wave. After about five or six waves, the old man of the Fox tribe frowned and told everyone to stop.
Weird!
It's so weird. After shooting so many arrows, there is something inside
There was no sound at all. Could it be that they were all pierced to death by sharp arrows?
But no screams were heard!
The old man from the Fox tribe suddenly felt his heart skip a beat, always feeling that something bad was about to happen.
He quickly called a guard beside him and said: "Take a few people into the canyon. Slow down. If you find anything, don't act rashly."
"Yes, sir!"
The five guards slowly walked into the canyon with low visibility, and the old man of the fox tribe led a large group of guards to follow slowly.
"Dad, why do I feel that they are not here? Are we going the wrong way?" The masked fox tribe member asked as he looked around.
The old man of the Fox tribe didn't say anything because he also felt something was wrong.
"Master!!! The goods are inside!" Suddenly a cry came from deep inside.
The elders of the Fox clan quickly followed up, and sure enough, before they reached twenty meters, they saw five guards opening a box next to a Kodo beast.
"Sir, it's cargo!" said a guard.
"Light the torch!"
The older man from the Fox clan felt a chill down his back as he watched. It didn't matter that the bandits didn't notice them approaching, but there were hundreds of people walking around and there was such a big movement, so how could it be possible that they hadn't been noticed yet.
In an instant, more than a dozen torches were lit, illuminating a dozen meters around the crowd in red.
goods!
All the goods, more than a dozen kodos were crowded together, but there was not a single bandit.
No, a trap?
The old man of the Fox tribe was suddenly frightened and shouted sternly: "Back off, get out quickly!"
All the guards didn't know what was going on. The old man of the Fox tribe snatched the torch from the guards around him and ran towards the exit of the canyon.
But before he had taken a few steps, he heard screams one after another coming from the entrance of the canyon.
"Quick! Get out quickly... there are enemies!" The old man of the Fox clan knew that he might have fallen into a trap, but he had nearly a hundred guards. Was he afraid of a mere twenty or thirty bandits?
So even though he knew something was wrong, he was just surprised now rather than panicked.
