Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

The four demon nobles were anxious and struggled hard, sobbing sounds coming from their throats.

They are eager to shout, don't pay attention to us, destroy them in one fell swoop, this person is Cao Geng, destroy him quickly.

Only by getting rid of him can you realize your dreams of glory and wealth.

However, his mouth was tightly sealed, and he was in great pain. He could only struggle madly.

Cao Geng was furious and hit the chief of staff on the back of the head with a stick.

"Dark Curse, be quiet!"

These nobles struggled even more wildly...

Cao Geng resolutely issued an order: "Put them all in a sleeping state."

Indeed, it was enough to let the Shadow Clan on the opposite side know that they were still alive. At this moment, they were no longer necessary.

Tang Long and others cast spells without hesitation. With a few powerful spells, they sent the four nobles into the abyss of dreams.

Cao Geng shouted to the other side: "Have you thought it over? If you have made up your mind, then clear a path for us and we will leave. Once we are sure there is no threat around, we will hand them back to you."

The enemy leader shouted back: "Why should I trust you?"

Cao Geng shouted back, "What other choice do you have at this moment? What else can you do except trust us? Get out of the way immediately, or I will order an attack."

On the roof, Zheng Xiong pulled the staff with a click, filling the heavy magic cannon with magic crystals. He aimed at the enemy in front, ready to release spells at any time.

Fatty and the others also took out their explosive spells. As long as Cao Geng gave the order, the spells would pour down like a rainstorm.

In fact, Cao Geng was not afraid of these enemies at all. What he was really worried about was, as the enemy wise men said, the fear of destroying their magic chariot.

Witnessing this scene, the other team leader felt a chill run down his spine.

Although he looks imposing on the outside, he is actually clear-headed on the inside.

There are only a dozen regular knights here, and the rest are adventurers recruited temporarily.

Once the situation becomes unfavorable, these adventurers will surely flee in all directions.

He really had no idea whether he could defeat the opponent who held the hostages.

Under pressure from both inside and outside, he gritted his teeth and finally shouted an order: "Make way, everyone, make way, let them pass."

Upon hearing this, the enemy immediately made way for Cao Geng and his party.

After all, they didn't want to fight. If they accidentally hurt the four officials, the consequences would be disastrous.

Seeing this, Cao Geng immediately ordered: "Retreat immediately, get on the car and leave. Quickly..."

The crowd dragged the four enemy officials and quickly boarded the carriage.

Wan Chunlang stepped hard on the magic drive, and the carriage sped away like the wind.

Seeing their carriage moving further and further away, the enemy leader immediately shouted orders.

"Hurry up, get in the car and follow closely..."

The enemies quickly jumped onto their mounts and followed closely.

"Damn it, Rat, the enemy is catching up with us again."

The fat man held the heavy magic cannon tightly in both hands and shouted loudly.

Cao Geng laughed when he saw it, and quickly said loudly: "Haha, prodigal son, slow down and wait for the enemy to catch up."

As he said that, he stepped forward and said, "Fatty, please move aside and let me do it..."

The fat man refused to obey, for he knew very well that once the enemy caught up with him, it would be a fierce battle.

"Mouse, no, go to Shoko's place!"

Xiangzi shouted quickly, "You fat guy, you are too brave, aren't you? Get out of the way and let Haozi take over. Don't you know that you are the worst archer here?"

The fat man was not angry, and said cheerfully: "It is because my archery skills are not good that I need to practice hard, isn't it?"

Cao Geng was quite helpless: "Okay! But you must obey my orders. You can only act when I give the order to attack. Do you understand?"

"And me! Please make room for me. Hurry up..."

The fat man looked up and saw Zheng Xiong and Cao Muyan carrying the heavy magic cannon on the roof of the car and trying to squeeze in. . .

The fat man had no choice but to move his heavy magic cannon to the center.

A magic chariot can accommodate three huge cannons.

Seeing that they had made all the arrangements, Cao Geng called out to the front: "Wanderer, find a straight magical road to stop on."

Wan Chunlang responded loudly in the front: "Understood, as you command."

If they stop on the straight magic road and wait for the evil spirit's magic convoy to catch up, it will become extremely difficult to escape.

As Wan Chunlang slowed down the magic chariot, the evil spirits soon followed closely behind.

However, these creatures were also quite vigilant and tracked us at a distance of fifty to sixty meters.

These evil spirits were not sure whether Cao Geng and others would fulfill their promise, so they could only keep a certain distance and wait for Cao Geng and others to stop the magic chariot in order to complete the transaction.

Finally, the magic chariot in front slowly stopped.

The leader of the evil spirit team felt a surge of joy in his heart.

Why did the magic chariot in front stop? It was obviously preparing to release the captives.

As long as he can get people back safely, promotion and wealth will naturally come.

To say that they would harm us? That is absolutely impossible.

If they really had bad intentions, they could have fired their huge cannons at us from the rear.

But they did not do so, which proves that they are people of their word.

Thinking of this, the leader of the evil spirit team was delighted and ordered his men to approach Cao Geng and their magic chariot.

Forty meters, thirty meters, twenty meters...

Cao Geng smiled and ordered loudly: "Fire..."

Fatty and his men immediately held their cannons tightly and launched a fierce attack on the magic chariot in front of them.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

"Swish, swish, swish..."

The evil spirit magic chariot at the rear was immediately hit by the magic shells, causing sparks to fly and blood to scatter.

The leader of the evil spirit team sitting in the front passenger seat instantly turned into a ball of blood mist.

His eyes, which were originally wide open, were completely destroyed as the cannon continued to bombard him.

The evil spirit driver was also instantly torn apart by the magic shells, like a broken puppet. The magic chariot then rushed into the abyss on the side of the road, followed by a violent explosion.

The fat man and his men showed no mercy and continued to bombard the front fiercely, regardless of whether they were enemies or not.

More than a dozen evil spirits sitting in the magic chariot in the front were all destroyed in this round of attack.

The evil spirit puppets behind them saw this and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh God! If we act a little slower, our lives will be in danger!"

They didn't even have time to abandon their cars, they jumped out of the magic chariot and started running wildly.

There was no way. If we waited until they turned the car around, it would probably have been smashed to pieces.

Seeing a large group of evil spirit puppets in front of them trying to escape for their lives, the fat man, whose danyao was exhausted, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

“Hahahaha…this is so addictive…”

Shoko and the others also laughed.

Cao Geng said: "Stop laughing, prodigal son, leave here immediately..."

After hearing this, Wan Chunlang immediately stepped on the magic acceleration talisman, and the magic chariot sped away.

No longer care about any magic weapons, just want to get away from the scene as soon as possible!

After returning to its own territory, the magic chariot moved faster.

Tang Long suddenly shouted, "Captain, this is terrible. We don't have any replacement magic costumes. What should we do? Night has already fallen."

When everyone heard this, they were all confused.

As the night falls quietly, the stars twinkle, the moon shines like water, Cao Geng leads his team through the mysterious dark forest. They are no longer riding ordinary horses, but the legendary shadow-winged beast, a beast with dark wings that can shuttle between shadows. However, even riding such a mysterious creature and wearing clothes similar to those of evil spirits may still lead to misunderstanding and attack from allies.

Cao Geng looked deep in his eyes. After a moment of hesitation, he proposed a seemingly simple but wise suggestion: "We take off our outer clothes and put them on inside out."

When the team members heard this, they all praised it. Wearing clothes inside out can not only effectively avoid being mistaken for evil spirits, but it is also a clever use of ancient magic, using the principle of antimatter to confuse the enemy.

Following the instructions, everyone acted quickly and put their clothes on. Tang Long, a former warrior, could not hide his worries even after changing his clothes: "Captain, this plan is brilliant, but it is still full of dangers. We must have a backup plan. If we are mistaken by our own guards, the consequences will be disastrous."

Cao Geng nodded slightly, his eyes revealing determination: "Stop, we will tear off the evil spirit symbols on the shadow-winged beasts, and then use mud to outline the word "Allied Forces" on them. This is the only feasible method for us at the moment."

Everyone knew that this was a forced choice, but it was also the wisest decision at the moment. So the team stopped and started to act according to Cao Geng's instructions. After completing the ceremony, they mounted the Shadow Wing Beast again and continued to move forward. This time, their goal was the ancient city that was said to have hidden countless treasures.

Along the way, everyone was filled with worry. After all, they were carrying a huge amount of gold and silver treasures. If they were unlucky enough to encounter greedy thieves or evil magicians, it would be a disaster. However, they were fortunate that everything was safe and sound in the territory of the allies. It was just that in this dark night, it was very easy to get lost while riding a shadow-winged beast.

They took turns driving and almost strayed into the depths of the dark forest several times, but finally, when the first rays of morning light penetrated the clouds, they arrived at their destination - the edge of Luoyang City. At this moment, the fat man was in charge of controlling the Shadow Wing Beast. When he saw the towering city, he was extremely excited!

"Mouse, we're home!"

The fat man shouted excitedly, pushed hard with his feet, and the Shadow-Winged Beast rushed towards the city gate like an arrow.

Cao Geng was resting with his eyes closed in the passenger seat when he was awakened by the fat man's loud voice. He opened his eyes and found that he was only a few feet away from the city gate. He immediately shouted, "Fatty, stop the car!"

"Squeak..." The fat man braked urgently, looking puzzled: "Mouse, why did you stop? Aren't we home already?"

Cao Geng's eyes looked extremely serious: "Back off immediately, return to the original path, hurry up..."

Although the fat man was confused, he still obeyed the order and prepared to turn around.

At this moment, dozens of allied warriors in silver armor suddenly appeared at the city gate, holding swords and shields, and surrounded them.

"Get off the horse! Who are you? Get off the horse immediately and be inspected."

Cao Geng's heartbeat accelerated instantly. These allied warriors had obviously mistaken them for evil spirits. The situation was critical and it was almost impossible to escape.

Just when the situation was about to break out, an Allied company commander suddenly recognized Cao Geng and expressed his surprise: "Brother Geng, why is it you?"

It turned out that Cao Geng had long been famous in Kong Jie's New Second Regiment and was revered as a hero by many soldiers. The company commander was an elite soldier under Kong Jie and was familiar with Cao Geng's aura and behavior.

Cao Geng felt relieved, but the situation was still difficult. If these soldiers discovered the mountain of wealth on the back of the Shadow Wing Beast, they would not be able to buy magic weapons, and they might even lose their lives. He quickly turned his thoughts and looked for a way to resolve the crisis.

"Brother," Cao Geng said, his tone calm and sincere, "is our leader in the city? I must find our leader."

He knew that only the head of the group had the power to decide whether to keep or go through with all of this, and before that, any explanation would be pale and powerless.

The captain responded hastily, "Oh! Your leader is no longer in the city. He is leading the warriors of your independent group to strengthen the defense barriers at the border of the Demon Realm to resist the upcoming Shadow Legion. By the way, Brother Geng, where did you go last night? Our lord is sending messengers to look for you everywhere!"

Cao Geng said hurriedly: "I warn you, you must not let the lord know that you and I met. Do you understand?"

The captain's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Brother Geng, this may be inappropriate."

"It's nothing, I tell you, if you dare to disclose the secret, I will make you suffer when I return. Fatty, start the shuttle, we will leave here quickly."

As soon as Cao Geng finished speaking, he hurriedly boarded the cloud shuttle.

The fat man quickly turned the cloud shuttle around, whizzing through the clouds and disappearing from sight.

The captain stood there scratching his head, looking helpless!

He sighed inwardly: I'm asking for trouble now!

However, in the end, he still didn't dare to hide it. He turned to the two soldiers behind him and said, "You two, hurry to the lord's mansion and tell the lord that Cao Geng has returned. He is driving the cloud shuttle to the front line, go quickly."

"As ordered."

The two warriors responded and hurried to the lord's mansion.

The captain stared at their departing backs and thought: Forget it, I'd better take a detour if I meet Cao Geng next time! If I get caught, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in bed for seven days.

Soon, Lord Chen learned the news of Cao Geng's return.

"What? You said he drove the cloud shuttle to the front line? Isn't this a joke?"

The war might break out within a few days, but this man went to the front line. How dangerous!

The lord shouted: "Come here! Lu Zhaowu, Lu Zhaowu, where are you?"

Lu Zhaowu hurried in and asked, "My Lord, what can I do for you?"

Lord Chen said sternly, "When Cao Geng, the naughty boy, comes back, you will immediately take the cloud shuttle to the front line and find him. Even if you have to tie him up, you must bring him back."

Lu Zhaowu looked embarrassed: "My Lord, this may be difficult to accomplish!"

Lord Chen was furious: "Why not? Go with my order. If you don't come back, tie him up and bring him back."

Lu Zhaowu hesitated for a long time, and said cautiously: "My Lord, it's not that I don't trust you, but your orders are of little use to Cao Geng."

puff...

The lord's face suddenly turned pale.

Lu Zhaowu quickly lowered his head, his eyes falling on the dust on the toes of his boots.

One...

Two...

The Chief of Staff suppressed his laughter and stepped forward and said, "Brother Chen! This may require you to do it yourself!"

"Damn this brat, he's really lawless. When I catch him, let's see how he'll be punished."

The lord was furious and shouted at Lu Zhaowu, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you prepare the cloud shuttle?"

Huhu.

Lu Zhaowu felt relieved and said with a smile, "My Lord, why don't you prepare the horses? It will take some time for our cloud shuttle to be ready."

The lord was furious: "Why don't you go now?"
