Volume 3 Chapter 125 Flame Magic Arrow
Xu Yi jumped up and rushed out of the tent.
There were the sounds of horse hooves coming from the wild in the northwest which reverberated through the camp, waking up everyone who had already fallen asleep.
The guards that were in charge of the night shift showed the efficiency of their daily training. They immediately reacted and put on their equipment, gathering to form defenses around the camp.
There was Hart’s shouts from the camp. He ran over and saluted Xu Yi before saying in a deep voice, "Sir chairman, there’s an enemy trying to sneak attack us."
Seeing the calm look on Hart’s face, Xu Yi said with a nod, "You can take care of the defenses, I won’t meddle with it. If you need me to do something, you can tell me."
Hart looked at Xu Yi in surprise, but then he remembered that sir chairman was actually a High Grade Magician.
For guards, if they could have a High Grade Magician, it would greatly increase their battle strength.
But because of Xu Yi’s identity as the chairman, Hart had always neglected having Xu Yi fight, making him forget Xu Yi’s identity as a magician.
After hesitating a bit, Hart said with a serious look, "Since it’s like this, sir chairman, I hope that you can join in at any moment."
Watching Hart leave after he was finished, Xu Yi slightly knit his brows.
Hart didn’t reject having him participate, which meant that the situation wasn’t good.
"Chairman, are there enemies ambushing us?" Camby’s voice came from behind Xu Yi, "Who dares to attack our Frestech Chamber of Commerce? Are they courting death?"
Xu Yi turned back and found that Camby and the dwarves didn’t look worried at all, rather they looked quite excited. He couldn’t help smiling at this.
These dwarves, they really were worthy of being called the "battle race" by the other races of the Sines Continent.
But these dwarves were the magic mechanical engineers of the magic machine development center, so they could be considered treasures of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. Even if Xu Yi believed that they were very strong, he didn’t dare make them take the risk of entering the battlefield.
After thinking for a bit, Xu Yi stopped the eager Camby and the others. He made them stay in the camp with the other staff who couldn’t fight before he walked out of the camp.
Although they were rushed when pitching the camp, Hart and the other guards had used the surrounding Magic Cars to make a small barricade. Currently they were gathered behind this crude fortification and focusing on the direction of the horse hooves.
"What is the situation?" Xu Yi came over and focused on where the sound came from, but it was all dark and he couldn’t see a thing.
"The situation isn’t too good." Compared to earlier, Hart’s current expression was even more serious, "The three guards I sent in that direction haven’t come back yet, I can only assume that the situation is worse. Based on the horse hooves, there are at least two hundred riders attacking us."
"Two hundred riders?" Xu Yi deeply knit his brows, "With so many mounts, they definitely aren’t normal bandits.
Hart nodded. He looked at Xu Yi and hesitated to speak.
Xu Yi patted his shoulder, "We’ll talk later. First let’s deal with this, otherwise it might become a problem whether we’ll survive this or not."
"Yes."
Hart gave a heavy nod. He looked at the trees near the camp and shouted, "Isos, what is the situation?"
With the rustle of leaves, an elven guard jumped down and nodded at Xu Yi, but his expression was also serious.
"They’re within four hundred meters."
"Very good, they are in our firing range. There’s no need to greet them, everyone prepare your bows!"
Hart gave an order and the guards all touched their Magic Repeating Crossbows.
"Release!"
Hart’s right hand heavily fell and the sounds of arrows flying through the air sounded by Xu Yi’s ear.
