39 – Killing the Bandits

Dressed in red clothing, a huge machete in hand, and exuding a valiant air, the bald man bellowed ferociously and charged at Yang Feng’s caravan.

When the bald man moved, under the command of their leaders, bandits from different forces urged their mounts and charged at Yang Feng.

“Kill him! Whoever brings me his head will be rewarded with 3,000 gold coins!”

“Kill him! Whoever kills him and brings me his head will be rewarded with 1,000 gold coins!”

“…”

The bandits leaders roared and offered extremely high rewards, stimulating the dregs and scum under their command, making them holler in excitement.

1 gold coin could be exchanged for 2,000 copper coins, 1,000 gold coins could be exchanged for 2 million copper coins. Many lesser aristocratic families didn’t have a liquid capital of 1,000 gold coins. 1,000 gold coins was enough for the bandits to retire and live in prosperity for the rest of their lives.

When Gars and the rest of the aristocratic youngsters saw the tide of bandits rush toward them, they shivered, a look of horror in their eyes.

Within the Turandot Subcontinent, aristocrats were basically descendants of Warlocks, and martial prowess were encouraged. Many aristocratic families had Knight rank inheritance methods. Gars and the rest of the aristocratic youngsters had received martial arts training, and many of them were at the junior Warrior rank. However, when they saw the tide of bandits, they still felt overwhelmed and horrified.

Yang Feng spoke frigidly: “Kill them, take no captives!”

Expressionless, 1,000 bladed robots orderly marched to intercept the bandits.

The wide expanse of bandits and the 1,000 bladed robots very quickly collided.

The next moment, countless limbs flew about as a large number of bandits and their mounts were sliced in twine by the alloy blades of the bladed robots.

———————————————

The bandits that had already unleashed their assault were to late to dodge, so they still charged dauntingly towards those bladed robots, then those bladed robots expressionlessly cut them in two halves, it was like delivering pigs for slaughter.

When the bandits in the rear saw the hell-like scene, they at once became scared silly, and one after another urged their mounts and scattered.

The thousand mechanical bladed robots at once exerted their power and raised their engines’ power output to the highest level, they began to charge at those bandits with a speed that exceeded that of the bandits’ mounts’ – cutting those mounted bandits one after another into two.

Gars praised sincerely: “Those mechanical golems are so ferocious!! Steel City’s mechanical golem legion, the name is really well-deserved!!”

The more that 10,000 bandits were being chased by merely 1,000 mechanical bladed robots, that was simply inconceivable. Even for a Knight rank expert, it would be difficult to overtake a bandit riding a mount. But those mechanical bladed robots could easily chase up to those bandits and then cut them into two, such fighting strength was simply terrifying.

Countless mournful wails reverberated within the Hunting Fang Wilderness, hundreds of bandits were cut into two every second. Blood dyed this patch of wilderness red.

“Save me!! Save me!!” The bald bandit leader, with a cultivation of an Earth Knight, in succession killed quite a few of his subordinates as he urged his mount in order to flee from the encirclement of the mechanical bladed robots. Suddenly he saw 128 mechanical bladed robots surround him and he was at once terror-stricken as he shouted loudly.

That 128 mechanical bladed robots’, with cold and indifferent gazes, at once pounced at that bald bandit.

12 mechanical bladed robots jumped up high towards the bald bandit.

“Bring it on!” That bald bandit gave a furious roar, he instantly stimulated the full potential of his body – the Zhanmadao in his hand hacked continuously 30 times as he crazily chopped at the bladed robots one after another.

In a split second, 8 mechanical bladed robots were then cut into more than a dozen parts.

At the same time, more than a dozen alloy blades sealed all of the maneuvering space of the bald bandit, then instantly chopped at him, cutting him into countless pieces.

Budd looked at this scene from the distance, his scalp felt somewhat numb, he rejoiced within: “The butcher of hundred men Mark also died! Those mechanical golems are so strong!”

The butcher of hundred men Mark was one of the most formidable bandits as well as one of the few Earth Knights within the Hunting Fang Wilderness, his fighting strength was only second to Gria’s. His most famous battle was when he himself killed more than a 100 enemies, that was how he received the fierce title: butcher of hundred men. Now even one of the strongest bandit leaders was actually killed and split into parts by more than a dozen mechanical bladed robots. By that point, Budd had a new understanding about how formidable the mechanical legion was.

In fact, the greater the mechanical legion was in numbers, the stronger its fighting strength was. One against one, a mechanical bladed robot against a Knight rank expert, the odds in a battle between the two parties would be 50-50. But a 100 mechanical bladed robots against a 100 Knight rank warriors, the 100 mechanical bladed robots would crush the 100 Knight rank warriors. That was because the mechanical bladed robots were well coordinated, they were valiant and unafraid of death, their bodies defensive strength was formidable, their vital points were few and small, and they would fight until the bitter end. Knight rank human warriors didn’t had such qualities.

As large numbers of bandits lost their courage as they were being killed by those mechanical bladed robots, they urged their mounts to escape this hell-like battle field without any hesitation.

The rest of the bandits found themselves being duped, one after another came to a standstill as they hesitated.

Suddenly, the space 200m behind Yang Feng warped slightly and the man dressed in a black robe appeared within a patch of underbrush. The man dressed in a black robe pointed at Yang Feng and soon after a level-1 fireball shot directly at Yang Feng.

The level-1 spell Fireball might was also extremely terrifying, even if it was a Sky Knight rank expert, if the level-1 fireball hit him, the only outcome would be death.

As long as a mortal such as Yang Feng enters in contact with the fireball, he’ll be instantly burned to death.

In this critical moment, two level-5 shielded robots standing beside Yang Feng raised their shields within their hands, light flashed slightly above the shields and two transparent protective covers suddenly appeared in front of Yang Feng.

Boom!!

The level-1 fireball exploded instantly, the explosion set off traces of ripples on the two transparent protective covers.

Gars looked at the man dressed in a black robe, he became somewhat appalled and then shout loudly: “Stealth! Fireball! It’s a Warlock! An official Warlock!!”

The rest of the aristocratic youngsters also revealed traces of appall within their eyes.

An official level-1 Warlock, anywhere within the Turandot Subcontinent, as long as it was not within Warlock College Antalya, could proclaim himself Lord of a territory. A level-1 Warlock could casually kill a mortal such as Gars. If not for the two level-5 shielded robots guards, the level-1 fireball would have already blown Yang Feng into tatters.
