The mountain road ahead passes through a small open area between two passes. There are rocks on both sides, and there are thirty people lurking in the dense forest!
There were twenty-four men with crossbows in their hands. The bowstring had not yet been opened, but the arrow had been put up. The black shaft and tail feathers of the arrow were not noticeable in the shadow of the trees. There was a faint blue luster on the arrows, which seemed to have been fed with poison. This is a strong crossbow forbidden by the people. The sound of the bow string is very small and the size of the crossbow is not large, but it can shoot far and accurately!
The black crossbow body is engraved with the pattern of Shenshu array, and the strong crossbow string needs powerful warriors to open it. Twenty four crossbow men were lying in ambush on both sides of the mountain road, with twelve people on each side. Looking from the dense forest on the side of medanzo and Amun, there is an ambush on the opposite side of the road, holding a staff to take charge of the whole situation. The faint breath is actually a great magician!
Among the crossbow men, there is also a sword warrior lurking there silently. The invisible sense of strength is actually a great warrior. There are also three magistrates among the assassins, two on this side of the road and one on the opposite side.
Medanzo took a cold breath and said, "the pure magic crossbow has ambushed two complete teams. There is a great magician under command, and there are two great warriors to cooperate with! What kind of battle is this? Even if I find them, I can't subdue all these assassins quietly. "
Amun nodded: "their ambush position is very good. On both sides of the road, they can monitor each other's situation. There is a great magician on the center of the alert, two great warriors protect and coordinate, and three deities arrange array detection. Even if I do it, I can't solve it all at once without a sound. Someone must be able to detect the movement and give an alarm. "
"Are these people here to assassinate Aristotle?" he frowned? Isn't it a little exaggerated? "
Amun also frowned and said: "there is no need for such a big battle to assassinate a person. When you hit a person, you can get out of the mess. The more assassins, the better. What do they want to do
Medanzo whispered: "killing people must be to kill people! Not only do they want to kill Mr. Aristotle, but they will not leave a single living member of the entire convoy, so that the mission will disappear completely
Amun nodded his head and said, "I heard that Mr. Aristotle's guard is also two small teams with 24 knights. The guard chief should be a great warrior. If the purpose of the assassins is not just to kill a special envoy, but to make the mission disappear and never return to the kingdom of Macedonian, then the lineup is understandable
Medanzo asked again, "it is the strength of at least one state that can send out such an assassin team. Who will it be?"
"Look at those Samurai costumes," Amun warned
Medanzo was slightly stunned: "it's the costume of kibada people! But I don't think these people are like kibata warriors. The skin on the face of a real kibata warrior can't be as thin as that, and there can't be traces of wearing several rings on their fingers. It's clear that they are deliberately dressed up as kibadas. "
Amun: Well, you have good eyesight. Who do you think they will be, Boz? "
Medanzo said in a puzzled way: "their appearance is clearly to kill people and kill their mouths. At the same time, they are prepared in case. If anyone in the mission can escape and run back to report the news, they will put the blame on the kibadans. But there is no need for the Persians to do so. It is meaningless to kill an embassy. If the city-state of Yalun is sincere in alliance with Macedonian, the loss of the mission will arouse even greater hostility towards the Persians. "
"Who do you think is most likely to do this?" Amun asked meaningfully? Is the intelligence so accurate and the ambush so skillful? Think of the most unlikely place
Medanzo took another breath: "can it be a Yalun?"
Amun sighed with regret: "after signing the covenant, he turned around and regretted it. However, it is not easy to tear up the covenant openly and get revenge from Macedonian. What should we do? It seems that the only feasible way is to let this treaty never be sent to Macedonian, and the mission will disappear from the world, but no one can tell who did it. "
Madanzo: can the yalens be so insidious
Amun: is that right? When we take these assassins for interrogation, everything will be clear
Medanzo quietly pulled out the key to fate: "do it now?"
Amun shook his head and said, "don't worry. You are also a general on the battlefield. I ask you, under what circumstances can we subdue them all without a sound? Now this kind of mutual alert formation is not easy to start with. Although they can not be our opponents, if the timing is not right, this place will be a mess. They haven't assassinated yet. If they do it now, we will attack. "
Medanzo thought for a moment and said, "no matter what the situation is, you should choose the best time for yourself. Then the best chance is that Aristotle's team goes into the ambush, and when they do, we'll do it at the same time
Amun nodded his head and said, "it's settled. I'll be in charge of 15 people over there, including the great magician. You'll have 15 here. Don't let them have a chance to fight back once they shoot. Otherwise, the arrows in those warriors' hands are very troublesome, and they may get hurt by mistake. As for the safety of Mr. Aristotle, I am responsible for it. "……
Aristotle's motorcade entered the mountain. There were three carriages in total. The important materials carried by the mission were put on the vehicles, along with the servants of the special envoy. There were two teams of twenty-four Knights escorting him. Eisen, the captain of the guard, was a great warrior. He should have been in the first car, but when he got into the mountain, he rode next to the second one, in which Aristotle was sitting.
After a pass, the two mountains in front of us are towering and a pass. Here is a small open area with deep mountains and luxuriant forests on both sides. All of a sudden, Eisen heard Aristotle's voice: "the terrain here is dangerous, it's a good place to ambush. The cavalry can't see what's going on in the dense forest, and they can't rush in on their horses. The assassins can shoot cold arrows while ambushing in the forest. Tell everyone to be alert and take up all shields. "
At Eisen's command, the accompanying Knight put on his helmet and took up his shield. The cavalry equipped with shields to ward off the stray arrows and protect the vital points during the charge. However, they did not hold the heavy shield in their hands when they marched, but only took them off when they were hanging on the horse's buttocks. It's the same with heavy helmets. It's uncomfortable to wear. It's usually hung on the horse's shoulder when marching.
The guards were on guard. Eisen was puzzled and asked, "my Lord, do you think someone will dare to assassinate? Now that we have made a covenant with the yalens, it's no use making trouble again? "
Aristotle replied unhurriedly: "it's no fault to be cautious. Although I called on the Yalun people's Congress to pass the resolution of alliance, it's also because many people can't answer in public about my accusation that they colluded with the Persians, so they have to make such a decision. I can see that those who are really in power in the city of Yaron are not willing to give in to Macedonian people. As soon as I leave, some people will turn back on me. And I've heard that the messengers of the Persians arrived in Jaron after I left, which may put new pressure on the yalans to change their minds. "
Eisen was surprised and said, "does yalen want to tear up the covenant? It's too fast
Aristotle sighed: "they don't need to tear up the covenant, they just need to pretend that it has never been signed, and that the whereabouts of our mission are unknown It's just the worst guess. It's very unlikely to happen, but we can't take it lightly. "
Before the words fell, there were birds in the woods on the left side. Suddenly, the killing intention was filled. Twelve black crossbows shot out with the sharp wind. Fortunately, the knights were on guard with shields. The catapults were so powerful that they even cracked the shields, and some of them fell off their horses. There are also cavalry longitudinal horse Dodge, people hide in the past, but the horse is thrown down by the arrow, the escort team is in a mess instantly.
The attack didn't just happen on the left side of the team. The chaos was just a cover up. Twelve feather arrows were also shot from the forest on the right side. They seemed to be wrapped in translucent light and shadow. They arrived in a blink of an eye. It was clear that there was a great magician who cooperated with the attack. The twelve arrows were all aimed at the carriage in the middle of the team, with Ethan beside the carriage and Aristotle in the carriage as targets.
The great warrior Eisen was also a little unprepared. After a big drink, he drew out his sword and waved it out. He could only parry four feather arrows that attacked him, and one arrow shot at his horse. In addition, it was too late to stop the seven arrows in the car. Just then, a light blue protective cover appeared out of thin air to protect the carriage and Ethan outside.
When the crossbow shot into the blue light, it made a crackle sound like breaking the ice. The magic shield was broken, but the arrow was slow. Eisen's sword shot down all the twelve arrows with a gust of wind.
"Thank you very much for your help. It turns out that you are so skillful in divinity." Then he yelled to the guards: "dismount and form a formation. It's important to protect adults."
In this dense mountain forest, there was no advantage in riding, so the guards dismounted one after another, raised their shields and surrounded Aristotle's carriage, holding weapons as if they were facing a great enemy. Judging from the round of crossbow arrow just now, the assassins we met were not ordinary. The next step must be a thunderbolt. No one knows how many enemies are lurking around.
However, strange things happened again. The assassins only shot the first round of crossbow, and then they were silent and missed the best chance to attack. It seemed that they were waiting for Aristotle's guards to dismount and set up a defensive formation, and they never took any more shots.
For example, crossbow arrows can be launched quickly and continuously. When the cavalry formation is in disorder, the continuous cold arrows are more threatening and can definitely cause great casualties. What's more, if there is a great magician to cover and cooperate, how can there be no movement?
"What's going on?" Eisen said to himself nervously, holding his sword
In the dense forest, a man flew out from afar. The guards were preparing to fight back. However, they saw that the man fell to the ground with open teeth and claws, and then did not move. It was seen that his posture was knocked out and thrown out. Then someone was thrown out of the dense forest on the other side, one by one, and thrown into the road in order. When the last one was thrown out, he still had a staff in his hand.
"That's Merlin, the high priest of Aaron! Lord Aristotle, it's all right that you guess. The yalens really want to assassinate us Who? Who is the expert to helpAristotle had already lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage and bowed in front of him and said, "I don't know which God has blessed my unfortunate world?"
At this time, a man said with a smile: "two old friends passed by and happened to see an assassin lurking on the side of the road. You are fortunate in your misfortune that you have not hurt anyone. "
With the words, Amun came out of the dense forest on the right side, and madanzo also came out from the left side and followed him. Ethan was stunned. He didn't know the two men. Aristotle's look was also very surprised, but he was stunned and immediately recovered to nature. He separated the guards and went to salute and said, "it's you
When Amun was only 14 years old, Aristotle met him in Duke town. Later, Amun became a general of eju to guard the red point defense line, and Aristotle was also in the army. Now the sage has silver temples, and Amun is still in his early twenties. Compared with the appearance of the old medanzo, Aristotle can recognize it at a glance.
Aristotle knew very well that there was a god standing in front of him, and he was the main god that the Egyptians believed in today. However, he did not know what to call him at this time and here.
Amun stepped forward to hold Aristotle's arm and said, "Sir, you don't have to salute me. It has always been my wish to have a chance to repay you. You are also one of the most respected elders in my life." At the same time, he said in his soul, "you don't have to think I'm a God. I'm the retired general of eju, a child of Duke town. My name is Amun."
Aristotle understood what he meant without any warning from amondo. Then Eisen came up and asked, "Lord Aristotle, do you know these two heroes?"
Aristotle turned to explain: "his name is Amun. He was a friend I made when I was traveling in Tianshu, and I watched him grow up As for the hero's name is medanzo, who was once a general who was good at fighting. They came to see me on the hitton Peninsula, but they happened to meet me
Amun? This young man seems to have the same name as the God of eju! Medanzo's name, Macedonian warrior Eisen, has never heard of it.
Eisen also came forward to salute and thank him, and he was shocked. Every great achievers in the world are proud, because they have the magic that ordinary people can't imagine. But in front of Amun and medanzo, Eisen can't be proud. These two people have solved so many powerful assassins in silence. The means are amazing!
Before Amun and Aristotle did not give orders, Essen stood by honestly, and the other guards naturally did not dare to speak in disorder.
Amun asked Aristotle sincerely: "we have known each other for a long time. When I was 14 years old, you saved me. At that time, I was a child who didn't understand anything. After I made great achievements, I met you. However, I didn't know that your divinity was so brilliant until you put your hand on it. You didn't even take the staff just now. How did you do it? "
Aristotle held out a hand and opened his finger. There was a blue water heart in the palm. He said with a smile to Amun: "although I didn't take the staff, I held the stone in my hand, and used it as an intermediary to display the magic art of water element Remember? It is the gift you gave me in the promontory city. "
Before the assassins started, Amun did not stir them up. When the crossbow was fired, Amun used a very clever air disturbance technique to slow down the speed and strength of the crossbow in the air. Otherwise, those magic arrows would not cause casualties.
When Aristotle's chariot was heavily attacked, Amun was ready to stop the arrows, but Aristotle in the car had offered a blue magic shield to help the warrior Eisen block the arrows. This was beyond Amun's expectation. He didn't know until this moment that Aristotle was also a master of divinity. Judging from the way he held the stone, he had achieved at least level 8.
Looking at the blue water, Amun said in his heart, "if someone told me that you are also a great magician, and I did not know you, I would not be surprised at all. But we have known you for many years, and we have never realized that you can divine. Your achievements can even escape my eyes. This is a situation I have never met before, and I want to ask the mystery of it. "
As the Lord of heaven and one of the most successful gods in this land, Amun asked a mortal for advice. It's not humility, it's really asking for advice. He's in a situation he's never seen before. No great magician in the world can escape Amun's eyes. Even if he can't judge how powerful his power is and how skillful his means are, he can at least find traces in his breath.
But he never realized that Aristotle could divine, let alone that he was such a brilliant master. The assassin in front of him has become a trivial matter. Amun must understand this unexpected discovery.
Aristotle frowned slightly, but still smiling, he replied, "you never realize that I am a great achiever for two reasons. One is that you respect me, and you don't wantonly spy on me with detection divinity; the other reason is that I forget myselfMedanzo interposed curiously: "what, you forgot yourself? What does that mean? "
Aristotle explained: "although I have that magic power, it is not what I want. I only regard myself as a person who spreads thinking, and I never use divinity to prove anything. I will not use it when I don't need to use it, and I don't regard myself as a magician at all. It's a real forgetting that you don't even think about it. "
