Chapter 146 Robber Night Raid

After a sumptuous dinner, all the elf children who had run away had gone to bed. The adult elves gathered together to talk about things that Donald couldn't understand in ancient elves.

As for Donald, he was working with his teacher to distinguish the types of materials separated from the ruins of the Book of Truth. With Messel, the alchemist, there is a living encyclopedia, and basically there is nothing he cannot recognize about these materials.

Their inheritance is more complete than most mages, especially the ancient archangelists of the School of Change are best at alchemy. Unlike modern alchemy, they only refine some magical objects or potions, the research directions of ancient alchemists can even be broad in terms of irrelevant huge directions such as mechanical civilization and species origin. It is said that almost half of the contributions to the successful construction of the Sky City are change and enchant these two magic factions related to the alchemy civilization.

After an hour, he analyzed more than a dozen materials, and their genera and uses were recorded in notes by Donald.

Taking notes is a good habit that Donald has maintained from high school to college in his previous life, and now it has naturally continued to this world. If the notes Donald has recorded since he learned magic and has been sorted into a book, it is enough to allow a mage apprentice to learn from the black iron level to the high bronze level, which is probably very helpful to some silver powerful people.

After all, Donald learned from his knowledgeable teacher far beyond the level that ordinary mages can master. The complete inheritance of an ancient magic school is not comparable to the current messy mage faction inheritance.

In addition to teaching from Messel, Donald also learned a lot from the collection of books copied by the Mage Club and the wizard Tari of the Kingdom Mage Association, and had a lot of communication with senior wizards such as Edwina and Chris.

It can be said that in addition to the short promotion time and the foundation is not solid, Donald has enough conditions and knowledge to make ordinary silver mages feel inferior.

The moon has already crossed the branches, and it is almost late at night after ten o'clock.

Most of the people in Donald's camp were already asleep, and only a few summoned creatures were still loyally protecting the safety of their masters outside the camp.

Just when everything was silent and quiet, a scream of screaming and killing suddenly came from the south direction. The noisy sound immediately woke up many sensitive elves. Donald, who was meditating in shallow layers, also stopped practicing and walked out of his tent.

After coming out, I found that teachers Messel and Kelthas had both stood in front of the camp and looked south.

Donald came to the two of them and looked at the place where the incident happened.

I saw that the direction of the camp was about two or three miles away from me and others was in chaos. There were many figures flashing outside in the fire, and they were attacking the camp.

"Are they attacked by robbers?"

"It should be!"

Messel replied: "When I passed by their camp, I saw the caravan inside carrying generous goods, and there were a few small nobles like squires in the team. I guess they had a lot of wealth, and they were the prey that robbers like to rob!"

Through the familiarity and understanding of this year of rebirth, Donald knew the robbers in this world.

There is a difference between the thief professions among the thief group and the professions.

Thieves are generally agile. Like assassins, most of them work in the army, mercenary groups or nobles, doing some pioneering path exploration work. It can be said that their profession itself is closer to scouts rather than literal meaning.

However, with such ability, most thieves can't help but do things like thieves, so people often regard thieves and robbers as one group. And there are indeed many thieves who join organizations like thieves and enjoy robberies and burn them. Just as assassins are not equal to killers, but many will join those assassin organizations.

Seeing Donald move a little, Messel asked, "What, do you want to help?"

"Yes! I think the caravan should be planning to go on a long distance. Maybe it will arrive at Dalaran. If the caravans traveling to and from North County are always robbed, it will also affect the economy of my territory. Even if there is no such reason, since I have encountered it, I may have to take care of this nostalgic business. After all, there are still many innocent civilians and fuzi in the camp!"

Messel nodded and said, "Go! Only by acting according to your own heart can you go further on the path of a mage. I think you already understand this!" "Thank you, teacher!" Donald bowed to the old mage, and then flew away from the camp with Kelthas. As for the camp, his teacher was in charge. Elder Ilya, who had recovered from the injury, is also a natural druid with silver strength. If there are eyeless robbers attacking this place, it would be a dead end!

Before coming to the camp, neither of them used any powerful spells, but instead released spell-like abilities like magic flames at will.

The sources of the demon flames inherited by the two are different. One is the destructive power unique to the blood elves, but here it has been changed to a warlock talent inheritance similar to the bloodline of the fire elemental creatures by the Book of Truth: the other is the demon flame power from the fire-burning demon, which absorbs and transforms into its own talented spells through the powerful talent ability of the demon hunter. Both do not require any spell gestures. As long as the mind moves at will and has sufficient magic power, you can free this flame attack that is equivalent to the power of a second-level single spell.

However, it is precisely this kind of magic flame that is not powerful in the eyes of the mages, but is better than convenience, which makes the people present feel frightened and awe.

Whether it is the robbers or the victims in the camp, they are just ordinary people.

Kelthus's magic flame is red in appearance, burning pure fire elements and magic. Donald's magic flame is deep red, full of destruction, as if the flames stole from the abyss.

The two people surrounded by flames descended from the sky like demons, waved their hands to release countless flames, killing the robbers who attacked late at night, and soon ran away in all directions. Only a few robbers burned by the flames were still lying on the ground and rolling and wailing.

Seeing the two benefactors who fell from the sky and saved their lives, the people in the camp were so scared that they dared not come forward. In the end, the caravan leader came forward and thanked the two benefactors for their help on behalf of everyone.

Donald and the others who restrained their flames did not accept their money, and left here and flew back to the camp without saying anything. The people who left these lives after the disaster looked at the two figures in awe and flew away.

After a fight, the other robbers seemed to have seen the fate of their kind, and were also frightened and dared not take any action.

In short, there was nothing wrong at night. After experiencing the incident last night, the camp took a break and had a simple breakfast before dawn in the morning and set off.

When Donald got up, he happened to see the team passing by not far from their camp, and he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

These people were scared by the robbers, so they wanted to rush into the town as soon as possible. Don’t you know that the possibility of encountering robbers again after experiencing yesterday’s attack is extremely small?

Even the thief group will probably communicate with each other and have their own ways to detect the news.

After knowing that the Wild Horse has two powerful mages, I guess no one will commit crimes in the next few days!

After a simple washing and after a hearty breakfast, Donald ordered the team to set off again.

The Shepherd Town is almost here, which means that it is only a few days before they return to Dalaran.

As fast as three days, as slow as five days, you can return to the territory at the speed of the team, and then Donald can take out the gains of this trip to the ancient arcane ruins and build his territory more powerful.

Donald, in a happy mood, led the carriage team on the road, but he had not moved forward for long before he encountered trouble ahead.

Seeing that he left the Wild Horse Yuan, there was only half an hour left before the Shanjin Town, many people gathered on the road ahead, and the crowd and carriages formed a blockage.

In fact, in addition to this main road, there are also many small roads around that can reach the Shamjin Town, but it is not a troublesome for other pedestrians. For Donald, a team of all carriages and caravans carrying goods, they have to walk on this road.

So Donald ordered Kelthas to go up and see what was going on.

After a while, Kelthas came back from the front and reported to his master.

It turned out that the nearby noble lord ordered the setting up of the road ahead and charged passers-by taxes to passers-by.

Donald couldn't help but feel a little surprised. Generally, there are few local lords in Celtic who charge taxes such as passing taxes. There are only a few inconspicuous small cities in the entire kingdom that charge money for entry fees at the city gate to earn some money, but it's just one or two bronze slots.

After all, this world is not like the previous life, with expressways, national highways, provincial highways and other roads. Toll checkpoints can be set up. Unless necessary, or only one road is surrounded by forests and other environments, people can choose other directions to detour.

Therefore, setting up such roadblocks for charging tolls is to force outsiders to stay away from their territory and cut off contact with the outside world. How can the territory develop? Normal life may be more difficult. At that time, the lord will starve to death or escape, and will not be able to pay the taxes of the kingdom. He will be the end of the day.

It was difficult for Donald to understand why the noble lord in the territory ahead had such stupid ideas. However, he had no idea about the territory ahead. He went to and from the town of Shemjin on the first two times, and he rushed directly over here. He only knew that there was a fast knight territory in front, and he heard that it was still relatively wealthy.

So he walked forward with Kelthas, preparing to inquire about people who were familiar with the situation around him.

Before the level, I saw a wooden fence set up on the road ahead as a roadblock, and several arrogant noble followers dressed in arguing with several people.

Two of them looked like the leader of the caravan, and two were probably their guards. The other two caught Donald's attention.

One of the young men wearing swordsman uniforms and long swords, said angrily: "It's so hateful. The toll costs three silver months. We are just ordinary pedestrians, not caravans and nobles. How can we get so much money for you!"

As he said that, the young swordsman was about to go forward and "reason" with the noble servants and another young man who looked like a scholar next to him quickly grabbed his companions and persuaded him.

The young swordsman shouted: "Augusta, don't stop me, I must teach them a lesson. These local nobles are so annoying! They don't look like nobles at all, but they are as greedy as the robbers on the wild horse field!"

Augusta? Isn’t that cousin of Catherine the Queen mentioned?
