Chapter 143 Caravan

The wind picked up.

Dobby raised his head and glanced at the heavy dark clouds not far away. The howling wind blew past his ears, carrying a bit of water vapor. Looking from a distance, it gave people a feeling that a storm was coming. Let this

The middle-aged swordsman couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He stretched out his hand, grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, and looked behind him. He saw that the convoy was still moving forward slowly and unswervingly, without stopping at all.

Meaning. Seeing this, Dobby frowned, and then he waved his hand. Soon, a soldier trotted from the side and came to his side.

"Sir, what are your orders?"

"A heavy rain is coming. Let's ask the eldest lady if we can find a place to take shelter."

"OK."

Hearing Dobby's words, the soldier nodded, and then immediately ran towards the black carriage behind him. Seeing this scene, Dobby sighed, and then shook his head helplessly.

After Zhan and Patilina joined, Delly also changed her mind. Originally, her plan was to take the soldiers to the place where the caravan was attacked to conduct an on-site investigation to see the situation. But after Zhan

After joining Patilina, he changed his plan and specifically contacted the chamber of commerce related to the Parwood family to transport goods and disguised himself as a caravan and headed towards Ernst City. Obviously, this was intended to be a caravan.

Use it as bait to lure the group of ogres to the bait.

I have to admit that Delly's idea is still feasible to a certain extent, because the continuous attacks of the ogres in recent days have caused the caravans to no longer take this road for the time being, but would rather choose to take a long way or even the sea route. Except

Except for those traveling merchants who dared to take risks, this golden trade route has now become much deserted. In this case, a large caravan can easily be targeted by those savage ogres.

But Dobby is not optimistic about this. As a warrior with the level of a master swordsman, he knows much about the terror and ferocity of those beasts. He knows better than anyone what kind of moral character these noble private soldiers have. If the armed forces are suppressed,

It's okay to rebel, but it's hard to say when it comes to fighting those ferocious beasts. In this case, Miss Delly dared to make such a big bet, which is really uneasy.

Fortunately, the presence of Zhan and Patilina made Dobby feel more at ease. It must be because of this that Miss Delly decided to use herself as bait to lure those ogres.

It’s just that... thinking of this, Dobby looked back and glanced at the girls who were following the carriage and wrapped in cloaks. They joined the caravan the next day, according to Zhan En

He said that these girls were his subordinates and elite warriors. However, Dobby couldn't see how powerful they were, because these girls were wearing war robes and cloaks all over their bodies, covering themselves tightly, even their weapons.

They are invisible. So Dobby has no way to judge their strength, but from the experience of a swordsman who has experienced many battles, even if these girls have some strength, I am afraid they are not much higher. And there are only more than seventy of them in total.

What role can it play? If you don't fight and run away screaming in fear, it is considered a blessing from the gods.

Thinking of this, Dobby couldn't help but shook his head. He didn't know why, but he always felt something was wrong. This was not a good sign.

At this moment, Delly in the carriage was equally uneasy.

After all, this decoy plan was initiated by her. If it failed, it would be very troublesome. The weakness of the aristocratic family is that there will be more voices of opposition. Although her father is the patriarch of the Parwood family, he often has to watch

Others act according to their wishes. Like the previous request made by Zhan En, if she and Mr. Dobby had not ensured that the other party did have legendary level strength, and that Starfall Fang did not have any actual benefits, I am afraid that the Parwood family would not have been able to do so.

Agree to this request. After that, when it came to the harassment of the ogres, many people were quite ridiculed at Delly's views. Even this time she came out with a hundred elite private soldiers, which can be regarded as

It was a desperate gamble.

Thinking of this, Delly couldn't help but sigh. She looked at Ligeia sitting next to her. Sometimes she actually envied Ligeia. Although her life was a little harder, at least she didn't have to spend the whole day like herself.

Dealing with the hypocrisy of the nobles, I was exhausted.

But what surprised Delly the most was the carriage in front of her.

Zhan likes to enjoy and hates hardship. Therefore, he will never deliberately ask for trouble if he can do things that are comfortable and convenient. Therefore, after deciding to go with Delly to deal with those ogres, he took his carriage.

Not only that, he also invited Ligeia and two maids to join him, even if it was a long trip to relax. As for Zhan En’s invitation, Ligeia also happily accepted it. If only Zhan En

If so, she might still hesitate, but after the Parwood family came forward, she would naturally have no worries.

As a result, the carriage currently contains Zhan, Ligeia and two maids, plus Delly and Patilina, a total of six people. An ordinary carriage would not be able to seat so many people.

human.

But Zhan's carriage is nothing extraordinary. Although it looks about the same size as an ordinary carriage from the outside, once you get on the carriage, you will find that it is as spacious as a Rolls-Royce car. As a mid-level mage, Delly naturally sees

It turned out that this was the effect of a space spell. This alone was enough to shock her. Applying a constant space spell on a carriage could no longer be described as rich and powerful. It was simply unbelievable.

You must know that space magic is not so easy to use in the Klein Continent. Even those magicians with wealth and power usually only cast this kind of spell in their own mage towers. The difficulty of space magic is not only the need

A lot of rare magic materials are needed to maintain it, and there are very few people who know space magic on the mainland. Therefore, in Delly's view, Zhan actually added space magic to a carriage, which is simply the same as a carriage on earth.

It’s incredible that an SUV is equipped with a space shuttle engine.

Not only that, Delly also had considerable doubts about Zhan En's identity. According to the intelligence, Zhan En is a down-and-out nobleman - but an ordinary down-and-out noble can get a carriage etched with space magic? Delly is very aware of the current situation.

No magic group on the mainland is famous for manufacturing this kind of carriage. This means that the magic carriage in Zhan's hands is definitely not a commodity commonly circulated in the market. In this way, there are only two possibilities. One is that this carriage is very powerful.

It may be a magical treasure passed down from a certain family, or another possibility is that it was created privately by a magician who was proficient in space magic. No matter which one it is, it is definitely not owned by an ordinary down-and-out noble.

Because of this, Delly also felt a little vague about Zhan's origin. She suspected that Zhan En might be the heir to a powerful and reclusive force. Because Delly had seen similar stories in books.

Records, and Zhan En’s actions are also consistent with this guess. After all, ordinary down-and-out nobles may be able to rely on their own talents to cultivate to a certain level, but they are also unlikely to have such powerful subordinates and treasures——Look at Cotton, isn’t it?

Best example.

If Zhan knew what Delly was thinking, he would probably sneer at it. Indeed, space magic may be rare in the main plane, but you must know that almost all the magic in Klein Continent was spread here from the demon world at the beginning of creation.

For the high-level demons, space spells are just as innate skills as eating and drinking. Even Zhan En can open a dimensional hole or something. The value of a mere carriage with space spells in the demon world is nothing more than this.

At this moment, Zhan En is telling Patilina, Ligeia and others the story of the Children of Thunder who once lived on the Eagle Plateau. It is a story from the beginning of the First Era, but Zhan En's narration still makes everyone happy.

It feels like I have returned to that crazy era when the gods descended and demons danced wildly, and the legends of heroes in that mythical era were able to move mountains and rivers and fill the seas with their own power.

Even Delly listened with interest. As a mage, the thirst for knowledge is innate. Although what Zhan told was from the age of mythology, Delly knew very well that what he said was not just a story.

Simple.

"Dong dong dong."

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting Zhan's narration. This made everyone stunned, and even Delly could not help but frown. They had just listened to Zhan's story about Ofgar, the Son of Thunder.

The story of how to defeat the Queen of Storms and take back the daughter of the stars, Kelly, was about to reach the finale, but such a move came, which really made people feel a little unhappy. And then, the voice of private soldiers came from outside.

.

"Miss, um... we have something to report to you."

"What's up?"

Looking at Zhan who was smiling and saying nothing, Delly gritted her teeth and asked.

"It's like this. Master Dobby said that a storm is coming soon. Should we find a place to rest for a while?"

"Um?"

Hearing this, Delly came back to her senses. She raised the curtains and looked into the distance. Soon, Delly also saw the gloomy, rolling dark clouds. Threads of thunder struck from them, and the howling wind blew.

Pass.

It was obvious that heavy rain was coming.

"Okay, find a safe place and let's wait until the rain stops before leaving."

With Delly's order, the caravan immediately got busy. The coachmen first drove the carriage into the nearby woods, and then formed a circle around the carriage with Zhan's carriage as the center, forming a natural barrier. Then the soldiers

They began to hurriedly put a rainproof cloth on it. Not long after, they saw heavy rain pouring down with the roar of violent thunder. It was blown by the strong wind and hit the caravan.

It's raining heavily.

In the blink of an eye, the outside was already blurry, and raindrops kept hitting the glass of the car window. Looking around, you could only see the world shrouded in heavy rain. Fortunately, the demon's carriage was not that kind of junk.

, so Zhan En and others are also sitting firmly in it, with no intention of moving.

"Cover the rainproof sheet for me and pay attention to your surroundings!!"

Dobby touched the raindrops on his face and shouted loudly to order the soldiers to get ready. In fact, strictly speaking, there is really very little that people can do in front of the power of nature, even those soldiers

, apart from protecting the goods from getting wet, it has no other function. As for hiding in the carriage to avoid the rain, only a few noble ladies are qualified to enjoy it.

After the initial heavy rain passed, the rain gradually eased a lot. It was only after confirming that the horses were not lost and the cargo was not wet. Dobby took a deep breath. He wiped the raindrops on his face and turned his head to look at the carriage.

Go. I saw that the luxurious and comfortable-looking carriage was still standing peacefully, and even the two horses did not waver at all, as if the thunder just now was nothing to them.

Not only that, Dobby also saw that the girls in cloaks did not seek shelter from the rain as embarrassed as his men. On the contrary, they were surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside the carriage. From a distance, they looked like...

It's like a statue.

I never expected that these little girls have such strong willpower.

Seeing this scene, Dobby shook his head. From this point of view, his group of private soldiers are really not as good as the other party, and he doesn't know where the boy named Zhan got these girls...

…………

And just as this thought came to Dobby's mind, suddenly, a low, almost inaudible roar entered his ears amid the rain.
