Chapter 25 (1/2)
Although in SIVI's opinion, those soldiers with the same equipment as the elite goblin are nothing, but for the villagers with more inferior equipment, it is not the same.
Even if they are just soldiers, they can be regarded as soldiers who have been on the battlefield, and their psychological quality and fighting methods are not comparable to those of villagers.
Even if the number of soldiers is much larger than the number of ruffians, if there is a real fight, I am afraid that these farmers will be defeated.
Moreover, the soldiers and ruffians claim to be tax officials, and their purpose seems to be just to ask for money. The civilians may have the courage to fight against the mountain bandits, but when it comes to the Lord and other public authorities, their courage is much weaker. If they really want to, the villagers will not really fight for each other's death, but let the other side plunder them with the idea of destroying money and eliminating disasters. After all, they are poor There is nothing to plunder, and the biggest loss should be those who are relatively rich.
It seems that those soldiers are really going to fight hard, and the villagers' will is obviously shaken. Even a few timid villagers have already shrunk back, but they have not got any clues. SIVI is worried whether to show up or not and start to drive away the soldiers. However, the development of the event is beyond his expectation.
”Stop it!” The familiar golden ponytail was inserted between the two groups.
The expression on Eliza's face was very tense. If you look carefully, you will find that the girl's legs are shaking slightly.
But even so, she firmly stopped in front of those soldiers: ”even the tax official can't casually plunder the villagers' living money!”
With the appearance of Eliza, Sylvia found something wrong.
When the soldiers who had been impatient saw Eliza, their faces showed the expression of finding the target.
Because of the previous conversation, seavy subconsciously thought they wanted to use Eliza as a slave, but he soon found out that there was something wrong with it.
There are two kinds of popular slaves in the world, young and strong laborers and beautiful female slaves.
Eliza is certainly not the former. As a slave, she is too young. If only one or two of them show this expression, it can be regarded as a special hobby of Lori Kong. However, it is a bit coincident that all five of them are Lori Kong.
”Is Eliza the real target?” Sylvie narrowed his eyes.
However, it's strange to say that Eliza's clever personality is destined to prevent her from getting into trouble. Moreover, she has been learning magic with SIVI all the time, and she can't go anywhere else. So what's the other party looking for?
The trouble is the motive.
At this time, the soldiers below had already shown disgusting smile, ignored those villagers who were still on the side, and surrounded Eliza half.
”Little one, it seems that no one has taught you that you should respect us masters!” The big soldier grinned fiercely, showing his yellow teeth. He leaned on his spear and made an aggressive noise on the stone floor.
Eliza bit her teeth as if to suppress her fear and pulled out the magic dagger across her waist.
As soon as the exquisite dagger came out of the scabbard, it immediately caused a burst of wonder among the crowd. It seems that Eliza had not let other villagers know that Sylvia had given her such a precious dagger. But those five soldiers ruffians seemed to have known it for a long time, but turned their greedy eyes to the dagger.
