"Mr. Gru is right. I really have no way out, so I'll leave it to you guys this time.”Bill wiped the sweat off his forehead and said awkwardly.
"It's nothing. Taking money and helping others eliminate disasters is my duty!”Roger smiled, excitement flashing in his eyes.
"I wonder if Sir Paul has any good strategy to repel the enemy?”Bill's small eyes were filled with hope.
"Without these goods, we can choose to break out of the encirclement. After all, it's relatively easy to escape in the open wilderness! However, with the convoy dragging us down, even if we break out of the encirclement, we won't be able to escape the pursuit! Then our only choice is to defeat or even kill the enemy's leader, Gargamel! This was the only way to completely resolve the current crisis.”Rogge's small eyes flickered with excitement, and his high-spirited tone sounded like he was pointing out the country.
"This is the only way. President Bill, arrange for your guards to guard the goods on the carriage and delay the enemy. My men will be in charge of the beheading operation.”Roger said to Bill decisively.
"Then I'll leave it to you!" Bill hurriedly nodded and quickly returned to the merchant group to arrange for guards.
"If the battle starts later, Little Chris 'illusion will be responsible for creating panic. Galent will use the curry powder to spread the chaos and try to make the enemies around the Gargamel lose their fighting strength. Bartier will be responsible for clearing the path and clearing the obstacles between us and the Gargamel! Once we get close to the target, Rogge will use plant magic to restrict the Gargamel's mobility. Bartier and I will complete the final attack!”Roger briefly laid out the battle plan.
"The Gargamel is a Dark Mage, and Dark Magic is generally more evil. Try not to give him the chance to cast a spell. Bartier must get close to the Gargamel at all costs. If he discovers that the Gargamel is chanting, Kris will use a mental attack to interrupt his chanting!”Rogge added.
Roger then discussed the details of the battle with his subordinates. At this moment, the Gargamel's cold voice sounded.
"Have you considered it? Never mistake the Gargamel's kindness for weakness! You only have one chance!" Even under the midday sun, the Gargamel's metal skull mask still flickered with a cold and sinister luster.
Roger didn't answer. Under the surprised and confused gazes of the bandits, Old Luo and the others covered their faces with a veil. Not only did they cover their mouths and noses, but even their eyes were covered under the veil.
This sudden action caused all the Bandits to collapse! The bandits did not even mention that they were wearing veils, but the mercenary guards on the opposite side covered their faces first! Who was robbing who?
"What are they doing?" A young Thief patted his companion beside him.
"I'm not sure, but it looks like they're more professional than us!”the older thief replied thoughtfully.
"Did we steal the boss of some group?”A Thief asked in confusion.
"It's hard to say. Let's see how it goes." the old Thief said.
"Anyway, we have more people. I don't believe that our two hundred brothers can't take care of these dozens of people!”A Thief at the side interrupted unwillingly.
"They can't be the bosses of other bandit groups. The captain has already recognized them as the Norton Family's caravan from the insignia on the carriage! Captain Gargamel was a Magician, so he definitely wouldn't make a mistake.”a Thief said.
While the bandits were discussing, Roger had already led a few of his subordinates towards the Gargamel.
"What do you mean?" Gargamel calmly sized them up, his cold voice devoid of any emotion. All his expressions were covered by the metal mask, and Roger could barely read his thoughts.
"We are willing to choose peace, but I hope to discuss the details with Captain Gargamel first. After all, your request is a little harsh!”Roger replied loudly. He was already rapidly approaching the Gargamel. Roger estimated that he would reach the optimal attack range in three steps!
"Stop!" said the Gargamel coldly. The bandits beside him immediately raised their swords and pointed them at Roger. The atmosphere was tense!
"Captain Gargamel, I admire your cautiousness. We have come to negotiate with you on behalf of the Norton family.”Rogge smiled and went forward to explain. His oily fat face appropriately displayed a refined and noble bearing.
"State your intentions!" Even though Fatty's manners were quite good, the Gargamel remained unmoved, still speaking in a cold and stiff tone.
"There's no hurry to negotiate. Before that, I would like to offer a small gift to express the Norton Family's sincerity.”As he spoke, Rogge walked up to Gargamel and bowed to greet her.
"As you can see, I'm a Plainz. Refining all kinds of potions is my hobby. Now, I would like to offer you a medicinal powder that I recently developed. It has a slightly spicy taste and can effectively stimulate the concentration of spiritual power. Therefore, when used during meditation, it can have a magical effect.”With that, the fatty waved his hand, and Galent immediately brought over a silver tea tray.
The silver tea tray was carved with exquisite patterns and covered with a piece of fine red silk. Galent carefully held the tea tray, as if he was holding a tray respectfully in front of the Gargamel. Anyone could tell that the medicinal powder in this tea tray was definitely worth a lot! In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on the tea tray. Even the guards of the Norton family were confused. They looked curiously at the exquisite tea tray in Galent's hand.
The silk was removed, and Galent smashed the tea tray onto the Gargamel's face! The red powder in the tea tray suddenly dispersed, and a strong spicy smell spread in the air. The surrounding Thieves were immediately affected! The few Bandits closest to him had their eyes covered by the powder. They covered their eyes and wailed as they fell to the ground. Most of the bandits were choked by the curry powder that permeated the air, causing them to cry and snot.
The first to bear the brunt was the Gargamel, who was smashed by the tea tray and completely covered in curry powder! This sudden change caught everyone off guard! Even if he could close his eyes in time and hold his breath, a mage who couldn't open his mouth to chant was practically useless!
It happened so suddenly that no one expected this turn of events! What was even more surprising was that the Gargamel was stunned after being hit! There was no reaction from his entire body. He was still standing in place in a daze, and Old Luo had long been ready to attack! He had been waiting for this moment! While everyone was in a daze, Old Luo flew forward and pulled out his two-handed greatsword at the same time, stabbing it fiercely at the Gargamel's body!
At this moment, the veils on Roger and the others 'faces finally showed their effects! After the last battle, Galent had learned his lesson. Because he found that curry powder could affect his own people in the last battle against the City Defense Army, this scarf became an essential tool for curry powder tactics. These scarves were provided by President Bill, but he did not expect them to come in handy immediately.
The veil effectively blocked the erosion of the curry powder without hindering their vision. Roger and the others were the only ones in the area who were not affected and could fully display their combat strength. The others were completely affected by the curry powder and temporarily lost their combat ability. This was Old Luo's best opportunity! Old Luo's two-handed greatsword had already stabbed out!
Puchi! With a thundering sound, the heavy sword stabbed into the Gargamel's body! Old Luo felt the resistance from the tip of the sword. The Gargamel's body was harder than he had imagined. Perhaps it was equipped with some defensive measures, but under Old Luo's strange strength, the heavy sword had successfully pierced through the Gargamel's body!
"The Gargamel has been killed. All Bandits, put down your weapons immediately!”Old Luo roared! Then, he proudly raised his heavy sword and picked up the Gargamel's corpse, sweeping his gaze over the surrounding bandits.
At this moment, Old Luo smiled happily! He laughed in high spirits.
Old Luo had reason to be proud. This was the first battle he had personally commanded since he came to the Magic Continent. This battle was extremely disadvantageous, but he had won so perfectly. He had enough qualifications to be proud.
However, Old Luo soon realized that something was wrong!
After a brief moment of surprise, none of the Bandits panicked! On the contrary, they all looked at Roger with a mocking and pitying gaze, as if they were looking at an idiot! If you saw someone desperately pressing the button on the monitor in an internet cafe, shouting," I can't turn it on!" This was probably the expression of an idiot.
Then, Old Luo felt a strange movement coming from the greatsword. He looked up and saw that the Gargamel on the greatsword had moved! He lifted his hand and took off his skull mask, revealing a metallic face. The metallic face suddenly opened its mouth and revealed a mechanical smile." Your plan is not bad, but you have wasted the friendship of the Gargamel. Pray to the God of the Underworld!"”
The last syllable came from the opposite side of Roger. The Thieves on the opposite side spread out and gave way to a person who looked exactly like the Gargamel from before! It was the same black robe and the same skull mask. The only difference was that although this Gargamel's voice was equally cold, it was no longer mechanical and had human emotions.
But the emotion in this voice was absolutely ear-piercing to Roger! Because that was the tone of a joke! Old Luo felt incomparably furious! Everything he did was just a child's game to the other party! Old Luo was completely fooled!
Everything he had planned was within the opponent's calculations! He had planned for a long time, but in the end, he had only stabbed a magic puppet! No wonder this Gargamel's voice was so cold and mechanical! No wonder this Gargamel's body was so hard! No wonder this Gargamel didn't bleed after being pierced!
The furious Old Luo shook off the puppet on his greatsword!
"You seem to be a little angry. You wasted the friendship of the Gargamel, so you should have the awareness to bear the anger of the Gargamel! Becoming a cold corpse will be your only ending.”With that, Gargamel waved her hand, and all the Bandits immediately raised their weapons!
I hope everyone can support the other cultivation world's 'Slaying the Saint'!
